behind case characters describe funnier guy
If you read it for a while, you feel like you know the guy behind it, and that makes it funnier for me. The characters are unbelievably well-defined. I've often made the case that if you can't describe the character in one or two words, then it's not going to work. And he does that.
stupid funny-but-true degrees
I used to be stupid but I've turned that situation around 360 degrees.

Never base your budget requests on realistic assumptions, as this could lead to a decrease in your funding.
levels awareness function
Intelligence is a measure of how well you function within your level of awareness.
funny-work ideas assassins
If you want to kill an idea without being identified as the assassin, suggest that the legal department take a look at it.
happiness fun optimistic
One Dilbert Blog reader noted that current research shows that happiness causes success more than success causes happiness. That makes sense to me. There's plenty of research about people having a baseline of happiness that doesn't vary much with circumstances. And given that happy people are typically optimistic, energetic, and fun to work with, I can see how happiness would lead to success.
funny travel new-york
No matter how many times I visit New York City, I am always struck by the same thing - a yellow taxicab.
fun wish looks
I wish I were dumber so I could be more certain about my opinions. It looks fun.
funny humor cat
As a fan, I'm distraught, but as a cartoonist looking at new vacant spaces in 2400 newspapers, well, behind me, my cats are dancing a conga line.
funny witty kids
I never knew what an engineer did for a living when I was a kid. I still don't.
funny-work marketing lines
There's a fine line between marketing and grand theft.
funny jobs expectations
Crackpot is an excellent job because the expectations are so low. No one ever tells crackpots that they should be doing more.
funny business damage
The most ineffective workers are systematically moved to the place where they can do the least damage: management.
funny smart stupid
If there are no stupid questions, then what kind of questions do stupid people ask? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions?
