And now they seemed to have moved onto the kanji for grass (草) since wwwwwwwww looks like a field of grass.

The fakeouts in this comic are unreal. The format is probably the culprit, but man I thought he broke like 12 plates.

Translate the SFX phonically then explain what they mean in comments. You'll thank me when you have to translate the sound effect for a tense silence.

Writing out the phonetics seems a bit too much, but I will keep throwing the occasional fun fact at you all when I run into any.

Do whatever's easiest. Japanese have onomatopoeia for everything, so it's a little silly in to have sound effects for "putting on socks" in English, but you do you.

Friend of mine was head of QA at Funcom and she told me people would constantly show up late as hell while being drunk or stoned. They were still allowed to work.

NEET needs to go back to sleep and then shotgun some vodka before heading off.

Dude if you are upright and having what seems to be a very hard think about what you are going to be doing, you are probably already too awake to get more sleep.

Oh I've totally had this discussion with myself. I identify with these last three panels more than anything else in the entire work.

And you can definitely go back to sleep. If you haven't done anything other than use the restroom or get a sip of water, that warm bed is always ready for you.
