It's that time.
I'm only going to list my 5 favorites. If yours isn't on this list, that is because it was number 6. Honest!
The following comic appealed not only to my ego, but to my woefully flawed sense of scale.

This next effort is one of several shameless attempts by Professor Funnypants to appeal to my sense of pity.

This final comic made me feel dirty and ashamed in a very special way.
It's also thoughtful and insightful, for those of you who get off on that sort of thing instead.
