As a person with a disability, Jeff has always had a contentious relationship with stairs. While taken for granted by most, to Jeff, a flight of stairs is a sign that boldly states “Not Welcome.” We are quick to make up excuses as to why we can’t make buildings accessible, like they’re too old or… Continue reading Stairbombing — Central Secondary School

Interlude — Prime Minister Ben Harper
People always say Prime Minister Harper is very robotic, but we feel he really got in touch with his feminine side on “Morning Yearning.”
Cripz Goes to the Movies: Twilight
As we’ve mentioned before on this site, the genesis of this comic really came from the lack of representations of disability in the mainstream media. Recently, we decided if there were no great representations then perhaps we could start inserting disabled characters into movies we all know and love (or love to hate). So, today’s… Continue reading Cripz Goes to the Movies: Twilight
Who Wears Short-Shorts
This episode is actually a set-up to next week’s episode, which will be the MOVIE EVENT OF THE SUMMER. That’s right kids, Cripz is goin’ to the movies next Wednesday so get your 3D Glasses and popcorn ready because we’re gonna put that jerk-off James Cameron to SHAME!
Intervention: Volume 2 — Western (un)Fair
Some other reasons not to go to a fair… Babies (and pre-teens, who are like babies only they kick harder when you pinch their cheeks). Games you can never win…it’s like being a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Carnies. There are carnies at fairs still, right? Vomiting (both food and ride related). Cattle wrangling/Cock… Continue reading Intervention: Volume 2 — Western (un)Fair
Dumb it Down
Because we’re asked so friggin often why we’re in wheelchairs, many of my disabled friends have thought up clever origin stories, which are complete fabrications, to tell the walkies when they ask why we’re in a chair. I suppose it’s not a very nice thing to do and a mature person would just be honest and minimize… Continue reading Dumb it Down
Potty Mouth
Ever notice how people act totally different once a wheelchair shows up? I’ve seen it all, everything from people talking loudly and slowly so my simple little brain can understand what they’re saying to people who stop swearing around me to protect my precious virgin ears. In that vein, this episode is dedicated to anyone… Continue reading Potty Mouth
The Sickness
Back with another comic, right on schedule! I’ve been busy preparing for my presentation tomorrow at Ignite London. Speaking of which, if you’re around tomorrow night you should come by Gigs Grillhouse on Talbot and see me speak! I’m up first, which will make my impending failure that much more spectacular. Come watch the fireworks!
Welcome to Flavour Country
Howdy sports fans, it’s Jeff here flying solo. It’s almost been a week since Clara left and I miss her. Kurzweil misses her too, he keeps tugging to go to her house when we’re out on our nightly walks. Anyway, another week another comic. It seems like it’s been a long time since the last… Continue reading Welcome to Flavour Country
Happy Canada Day from Cripz: A Webcomic
We interrupt our regular programming for a quick “Happy Canada Day” to our Canadian readers and a somber “For the love of God, put down that box of M80s and can of gasoline” to our friends from the south. Hopefully now it makes sense why we aren’t quite as…exuberant…with our national birthday celebration now. It’s… Continue reading Happy Canada Day from Cripz: A Webcomic
