About this comic
The came about after a look at my personal digital pack-ratting for the last 15 years or more. And hence, the comic was born. Enjoy.

Classic!
You nailed that one Scott. I loled irl.
Best. Comic. EVER!!! I sooooooo know how he feels.
After reading this I think I am going to do a little spring cleaning on my desktop.
Who installed this mirror onto Extralife? I can see my reflection in it and -
… wait.
And I just bought another 1.5TB …. Hi, My name is Jeff and I have a digital hoarding problem…
Oh man, I know how this is. I probably still have floppys of animated gifs lying around somewhere from when I wanted to ‘back up” my old Pentium 3 machine
R.I.P. Mortal Kombat and Chrono Trigger gif files, I have no way to access you now…
Does this mean you still have “Hudson From Aliens” wav files? And where can we get them?
Oh my….I am definitely seeing myself here! I am most assuredly a digital hoarder! Nicely captured!
“Game over man! Game over!”
Is that an MST3K quote??
Aliens
Amen to that brother! Who hasn’t had to cure themselves of this terrible problem?
It’s weird, but every time I glance away from the first frame, I see the album cover to Pink Floyd’s “A Momentary Lapse of Reason.”
Duuuuuuude BBS’s!!!
Hey… i still have files from 1989 or thereabouts around here… let me check….
Yep, a bunch of wordstar files that i cannot open anymore and… what is that? Grand Prix Circuit? Man, that brings memories….
I am such a digital hoarder. I think so many are, because HDD’s are so cheap and have so much room now. I have more stuff to watch than I’ll ever have time to. Wife & I love watching Hoarders, she a minor one, but I am a digital hoarder.
I’m a digital hoarder too, saving .wavs, .mov, jpgs. Even my WoW alts’ banks and bags are always full. Erm real life too. /sigh
Best Comics ever done!
This is genius. And I love that show.
This is so me it’s kind of frightening.
*looks at comic*
*looks in documents folder*
*hides messages from 1995 mailing lists in the 1998 university coursework folder*
*sits back in satisfaction*
The last frame has me laughing still—excellent!
You hit a nerve, and reminded me of an archiving job that’s… going to continue for the rest of my natural life. If only I could find my high quality copy of the original Tripping the Rift.
Hmm… reminds me that I have to do some house cleaning on my D: drive, since I’m running out of space, again…
D:
What some people call hoarding I call inadvertent backups. Just found another copy of my music on some hardrive kicking it in a non working external enclosure
I really have a problem with generic electronic hoarding. I just know once I toss all of it the apocalypse will come and ill actually need a g 3 with no hard drive
Hilarious!! In other news…I think I may have a problem.
