    I like this because it is written as a comic strip with illustrations. The simple format and graphics drew my eyes to the article, so therefor drawings and short articles are good ways to get viewers.

    1. Can you relate to the article?
    -If you can't, would you be able to relate to it if it was with family instead of friends?

    2. What are your views on the comic format with the cartoons?

    Don't know if I can relate to this, but I definitely think it's a good way to get views on a post. I don't think it takes much talent to create though, and I didn't find the article/comic very funny.

    I think this is actually super accurate. I've experienced some of this with friends and family, especially with the one about music selection. I think the fact that it is so accurate and illustrated well, makes it interesting and fun for the reader

    I really like the style of this article and I can definitely relate. I think it's almost worse with my family though because at least with friends I share more common interests where as with my family I don't as much.

    I can totally relate. I have a younger brother who has no sense of time or music and our road trips are somewhat identical to the one displayed in the comic. I think that although comics aren't taken extremely seriously, this particular one drives home a point on family or friendly bonding.

    It's even worse if the driver your with is a rough rider. My uncle in the Philippine's drove so fast I got car sick. Plus too many bathroom breaks can tick you off fast, ugh.

    This article is very accurate. When you are stuck with a small group of people for a long period of time, I know I can become very annoyed and always feel like I have to constantly compromise. I guess the hardest part is trying not to show the fact I'm irritated.

    I personally can very much relate to this article.. I mean how can someone not agree with it! Just imagine spending at the least 4 hours in a car with the same group of people... you'll lose your mind.

    I like the comic form of this article, it lends a very playful aspect that makes an article comical.

    This is a very interesting article that many people can relate to.
