Board Worthy

This is the first Board Worthy comic to be posted to my blog, and it's Sheldon!
So not only is my first Board Worthy comic posted, but it's from an awesome geeky comic and references Grammar Girl! Two great things that go great together!
"Board Worthy" is a term that I've been using for years to describe certain kinds of comics, and I'm going to start posting Board Worthy comics here on an irregular basis.  Please feel free to email me links to Board Worthy comics, and I'll add those as well!  There are a few rules for a comic to be deemed Board Worthy.  I'll probably update the rules as I realize what I've forgotten or missed.
1. The term Board Worthy came from an episode of Seinfeld after the contraceptive sponge was discontinued. Elaine hoarded sponges and would then decide which men were "Sponge Worthy" and who was stuck with condoms.  Please note that the Seinfeld youtube video below is NSFW.


 2.  The "Board" refers to a cork board or bulletin board in your cubicle, outside your office door, wherever your work board is. 
3. A Board Worthy comic needs to be appropriate for work and have something to do with yours (or someone else's) profession.  Since I have friends with a variety of professions, I am going to keep it rather loose and low, but it could be a grammar comic, a math comic, a business comic, something to do with engineering or science, etc.

4.  Since it has to be appropriate for school/work then it has to be SFW. 

5.  It has to resonate with me in some way.  Hey, my blog, my comics listings, my preferences ;-)
