Cartoonist of the Week – BifSniff

January 16th, 2007 by Anita Bath

BifSniff is a collaborative blog started by two Irishmen – “Brendan O’Connell (Bif) and Frank Prendergast (who, despite all the questions, is not ‘Sniff’)”. Over the past few years, they have drawn hundreds of fantastic cartoons, often leveraging funny interpretations of common English phrases and a simple one cell format to create a fun and refreshing weekly read.

Three of my favorites are included below, but I’d definitely suggest checking out the cartoons section of their site to see for yourself … I was laughing the whole way through.

I particularly liked that last one. I always snicker whenever someone proclaims “let’s think outside the box” during a meeting. To me, this statement should mean “Fun time! Let’s go get something to drink, take a walk, swim a few laps, or ride Shetland ponies at the carnival to get some fresh ideas away from the office.” Instead, this is really just another way of saying “Hey gang, let’s pull out the markers and start drawing some pretty pictures and … oh yeah, I call ‘not it’, haha!”

Next time my son wants to dump all his toys on the floor and sit in his toy box, I think I’ll just reply “No honey, why don’t we think outside the box tonight?”

    Excellent… I like the last one… That’s a phrase I hear way to often at work (typical corporate america).

    The look on Death’s face is priceless. Who knew Death would be so excited about penguins?

    BifSniff is fantastic.

    Have you read XKCD.com? – more genius, I’d post it every day in my blog if I could.

    Many thanks for your nice comments in my Blog-Op blog :-)

    Chris – yes, I love XKCD.com as well. I have them queued up for a “Cartoonist of the week” post later in the year.
