Help me find this comic!

August 26, 2011 10:54 AM

I saw a comic online a few years ago; it featured a man surreptitiously putting nicotine patches on his girlfriend so that she went into withdrawal when she wasn't with him. Can you help me find it?

I can't remember much else about it, other than that it was pretty simple and, I think, in black and white. It's two guys talking, and one of them relates what I wrote above the fold.

It is the comic that goodnewsfortheinsane refers to here.

I would be shocked if it was not an http://xkcd.com/ comic.

I remember reading this...I think it was a Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal comic. That's as far as I can get you, unfortunately.

Yeah, that's definitely in line with SMBC humor, as opposed to XKCD.

Best answer: Huh, I just found this, which I guess must be it. I don't read whatever comic it comes from, though, so it must have been a one-off link I clicked on. (I found it while googling nicotine patch girlfriend smbc; came up in a reddit thread.)
