''Nichtlustig'' (a.k.a. ''Notfunny'') is a [[NotableGagPerDayWebcomics gag-per-day format]] comic series by German comic-strip artist Joscha Sauer. According to himself, it was something he did to pass the time, while looking for a real job. That was in 2000. He seems to have quit his search.

So what's it all about? Let's see: Clowns chopping off their legs for no reason, lemmings finding creative ways to commit suicide (or stalking [[TheGrimReaper Death]]), Yetis melting their caves in the course of baking gingerbread... You get the idea.
