Pick Up: there is no uming and O.R.ing in MY queue part 2

Script:

Panel 1:

Ryan and Michael are walking to the front of the queue to see what the problem is.
1st Security Guard: Good evening ladies. Have you got ID on you?

Panel 2:

1st security guard checks the ID

Panel 3:

Then he check her chest

Panel 4:

Finally he check out her legs
1st security Guard: Okay, go on through

Panel 4:

Ryan turns to Michael Ryan: Michael, I think we have found the problem.
1st Security Guard: NEXT.

Well there are several problems here, where the hell did the 2nd security guy slide off to?

I apologise for the long long absence, I'm still not satisfied with my drawing ability, hopefully practise makes perfect. Anyway how to you solve a problem of a wandering eye?

Pick Up: there is no uming and O.R.ing in MY queue part 1

Script:

Panel 1:

Ryan:Holy...

Panel 2:

Ryan:What are we going to do?
Michael:Nothing. I'm British, I know how to queue.

Panel 3:

Ryan:But what if we could speed it up?
Ryan is rubbing his hands together and looking mischievous. Michael on the over hand looks intrigued and curious.

Okay quite a bigger gap than I said, my delay was due to nervousness over drawing panel 2, as it turns out wasn't that hard and it's okay my art sucks. I'm annoyed I can't draw someone rubbing his hands together.

Since this is part 1 I written part 2 and 3 already. You can guess in the comments what you think Ryan is going to do next.

Pick Up: Pulling the guys

Script:

Panel 1:

Ryan:ooh

Panel 2:

Ryan:hmm <eyes closed, head tilted to one side>

Panel 3:

Ryan:and then... <smooch face>
Michael:What in all-the-numbers-that-have-2-in-it are you doing?

Panel 4:

Ryan:playing a scenario where I team up and apply the Nash equilibrium.
Michael:you want to "score" the blonde girl from the film "A beautiful mind"

Panel 5:

Ryan:<sigh>No, the other girls.
Michael:okay good, what am i here for then?

Panel 6:

Ryan: To help me pull guys to help pull girls

Panel 7:

blank look

Panel 8:

side on, Michael is serious.
Michael:okay, let's do this.

the comic

The proof for all numbers contain 2 was done on numberphile youtube for the proof we just consider positive integer numbers and count the numbers that contain 2 under 10, then numbers that contain 2 under 100 and the percentage of numbers that contain 2 goes up and you can keep on doing this and there is an equation to work it out. Watch the youtube video they do it for 3 but the same rules apply.

I assume most people in the maths area have watch "A beautiful mind". If you haven't I will try not to spoil it for you. A group of women enter a bar, there is one that stands apart from the rest (the blonde) and the guys are saying "best man gets the prize" Nash then saw what the outcome would be and came up with a different method where every guy wins and the blonde lady is left alone.

A guy who is a pick up trainer suggested looking for guys to help find and pick up women. Sounds strange but watch the video.

In the comic Michael the driver is not looking on the road on panels 2, 3, 5 and 7(purely coincidental). The seat belt was added after, if your driving you should always wear a seatbelt. The position of Michaels hands on the steering wheel is at the 10 and 2 position (on a clock) always good practise. The driver is in the left which means he's driving on the left hand side of the road (like they do in Britain).

I have wrote the script for the next one already so it should be up soonish.

Pick Up: It's a golden car

Script:
PANEL 1
Ryan: So whose car are we going in?
Michael: mine
Ryan: What? I thought it would be mine because mines cool
PANEL 2
Michael: It is cool but my car has dimensions which are closer to the "Golden Ratio"
Ryan: Does this mean what I think it means?
Michael: I don't know
Ryan: It's a real lady puller
PANEL 3
Michael: Not exactly... the gears are spaced to make it more fuel efficient. It has a go fast stripe though!

The golden ratio value is irrational so to 5 decimal places it is 1.61803. A while ago someone did a experiment putting different rectangle on a sheet of paper and they asked volunteers to select the most beautiful rectangle and would you have guessed it, it was the one that had a ratio of 1:1.61803... among other reason like Fibonacci numbers this is why this number may be considered beautiful. Sorry it has been so long, had to have the script tweaked, the car is meant to be based on the old volvo cars, nice and boxy. They have hat and scarves because it's winter and cold, sorry about facial expressions. Like I said before if you are a better artist or you know someone who would do this for FUN, get in touch.

Also it's the time of year for presents (Yay!) the giving and receiving of presents. For some people just staying warm is hard enough. The reason I'm saying this is as mathematicians we don't really believe in luck we believe in chaos and probability. Some people have everything going for them then that small chance of probability hits and things gets worse. Someone's situation may be their fault but some of it could be down to the pesky "no-way-is-that-going-to-happen" probability. Maybe this Christmas think of others. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Pick Up: It's friday comic 001

Script
PANEL 1
2 seconds to 5pm

PANEL 2
5pm

PANEL 3
Ryan:It's Friday, it's the weekend

PANEL 4
Ryan:Hey Michael, are we going out tonight and you still on for being my wingman
Michael:Yep

PANEL 5
Michael:What club do you want to go to
Ryan:er

PANEL 6
Ryan:Let me find out

PANEL 7
Michael:Are you doing goal programming?
Ryan:Yeah

PANEL 8
Michael:Don't bother, I know what club your going to pick
Ryan:Oh yeah, which

PANEL 9
Michael:Club Panther, it's the only one that serves woo woo drinks
Ryan:What, it's a nice drink.

If you haven't seen "Harold and Kumar" they start with an goal and then get side tracked. That was the idea of what this is hopefully going to be.

In Panel 6 Ryan is rating amount of women in a bar. The problem is he hasn't stated if the women are single and or straight. He could have ended up in a lesbian bar. Last panel I mentioned woo woo drinks just a reference to Aled from the Chris Moyles show, it's ended after 8 years (longest running breakfast show in bbc Radio 1).

Due to amount of free time I have hopefully I'll do one at least once a month. By the way I know the drawing is rubbish, if you fancy doing the art email me(James Clare) AT.
