Carl & Dave Comic: Happy Birthday #3 - Office Humor Strip #1216353 (License: Personal Use)

The three-panel black-and-white comic shows two colleagues seated on a bus: one reads quietly while the other produces a “Happy Birthday” balloon. The recipient acknowledges it with a simple “Thanks,” highlighting the dry, deadpan humor characteristic of the Carl & Dave series. The minimalist line art and expressive faces convey the awkward yet relatable moment of corporate politeness.

Used on humor blogs, comic archives, or workplace culture sites to illustrate subtle social dynamics; matches user intent for nostalgic, office-themed comics or shareable workplace memes.
