Boxing day! Since I am new to Canada, I seen this "boxing day" which i never experienced before. So I drew a comic about it.
Enjoy, and Merry Christmas to you all!!

EDIT: I came from the Philippines just 4 months ago. Well, here's what I think of it... Not that I am going to "greet" my bus driver and friends though.

Um,
Yeah...
I don't want to make an "I'm leaving" thread, but I've sort of lost interest in this board. So if you notice that I'm gone, that's why.

Hmm, you Americanos don't have Boxing day? That's news to me. But I guess we don't have Black Friday so...
As for the comic, I'd suggest not making any more
No offence, my now fellow Canadian

Nice. At least you took interest in the comic.
By the way, I will get a RAM upgrade for my laptop this boxing day.
So, how's Christmas?

Yay! Boxing day! Tim got a gig (I think) or RAM for his laptop, and, as I've said many times already, I got a 4 gig Sansa ($91.02).

I love Boxing Day
Got to go to my Grannies and won my dream Boombox on eBay for £50. What more could a dude want.
