Description So I took an art class this semester, and every time I messed up, I would automatically think "control+z". Every. Single. Time. Even when I was using a pencil and had a freaking eraser. I am saddened by what I've become.

UUGGHHH!!! this is SO ME! Whenever I would mess up a drawing I thought actually put my fingers on the paper and press where Ctrl Z would be. xD

I also do it when I apply make-up! One day I drew the eyeliner across my eyelid wrong, and started doing the ctrl+z hand motion. I then I realized I had to use make-up remover. xD

Haaaaaa. XD This is why I'm terrified to try traditional art stuff. I make SO many mistakes, and with no nice, clean, undo button my sketchbook is a hot mess. :'D

Oh yeah, I totally think the same thing. XD Also I've finished a drawing and immediately thought Ctrl + S, given my habit to save every five minutes. XDDD

I totally love your Super-concentrating expression in panel 3. XD You shall will it to happen!

You need one of those erasers that say Ctrl+Z. I've seen pictures of them online. XD

This is pretty much how we all end up after being spoiled by our computers, allowing us to mess up as often as we want. *sniff* D8 There is no Undo button for the other stuff.

(Apple may eventually have an App for that though.)

No offence anyways, had the same idea in this comic :I

This always happens to me when I take a break from painting to try digital art, and then take up painting again. Every time.

I'm slowly weaning myself from my addiction. The pen is once again becoming mightier than the keyboard. A tad slower, but more deep, and personal.

Lovely art. I absolutely enjoy how you recreated your screw up so excellently and mixed your own style of cartooning into the mix for added comedy. If it makes you feel better, I know a lot of people who do this. At least two of them have vocally shown their displeasure.

Actually, I've talked to some people about this phenomenon, and yeah, it seems it's true for a ton of people.

Thanks for the comments! 8D
