I find this not to hold true.
Who sleeps shall awake, greeting the shadows from the sun
Who sleeps shall awake, looking through the window of our lives
Waiting for the moment to arrive...
Show us the silence in the rise,
So that we may someday understand...

It can work if what you say sounds important then what you are actually saying or at least forms a sentence

Actually, I think this strip is true to a certain extent in politics. Just look at some of the excuses senators offer when they're caught with their pants around their ankles. Certainly incoherent enough although much question asking occurs.
I made this into a briefly recurring gag format, but the first one is the best and truest, I think. It had better be, because it's an observation that's also made in The Catcher in the Rye.
I don't think this running gag ran more than three strips.
That which does not kill me, cripples me for life.

This one can work if applied correctly. Most of the time they'll just have you committed.

I guess that does qualify as getting out of having to do work...

I once told a teacher I couldn't take a test because my brain needed more time to absorb the lesson. Didn't work. :( Did get a laugh from the other kids though. I was 10, btw.
