About
Hmm Today I Will, also known as Today I Will Listen to Some X and Clueless, is a series of four-pane comics centered around a stick-figure character who reacts in a certain way after listening to a song by band (X). Yet another spin-off of the Rageguy comics, this series illustrates a wide range of audience receptions (depending on each illustrator's music preferences), as well as humorous observations on various subcultures and dress codes commonly associated with certain bands and genres. In 2018 the format gained popularity in ironic memes on Instagram and /r/okbuddyretard subreddit.
