Well-Rounded Post

It's so cold and windy here today that the school canceled all classes for the first time in over 10 years. So even if you don't enjoy the post today you can enjoy the fact that it probably doesn't suck as much where you live as it does where I live.

Another game review should be up by the end of Saturday. So look for that if you enjoy that kind of thing.

The Meaning of Lila 1/25/10

There isn't a more realistic character in a comic strip that I am aware of. Lila is one of my favorite strips when it's being real and one of my most hated when it tries to be comic-y. Keep it real John and everything will be fine.



Pickles 1/25/10

That-old-guy-who's-name-I-forget is awesome. He doesn't care about the wrath of his wife anymore, he just wants his grandson to learn that women should be ignored as much as possible and that in the future might be able to be silenced with but a thought.



Lola 1/25/10

If Lola wasn't at risk for diabetes before, she will be if she finishes that breakfast. All she needs is a glass of chocolate milk to top everything off.

Also, I like how her son (?) just sits there, offering no advice on what a well-balanced breakfast would actually consist of. It's almost as if he wants Lola to go into a diabetic coma. I can't really blame him, Lola is pretty mean sometimes.


It's All About You 1/25/10

I know that I come off as an asshole most of the time because I simply whine and complain about comic strips, so I'm going to give constructive criticism to this strip.

First, if really want to use this joke I suggest switching where he characters are sitting. It gives a better flow to the first panel if the "PFF!" is on the right side and the eye doesn't need to wander back over the first speech balloon to get the the second panel.

Second, use a better joke.

Alright, that wasn't all constructive, but I tried.

Some Blog

Posting is going to be very erratic for the next month or two as I finish school and move around a bit. I'll try to get 3 a week at least, but I can't make any promises.

Would you really miss me anyway?

The spider would have changed many times over that pig's lifetime. And that pig wouldn't be made into sausage because it's too old.

Might make a good football though.

You know what I'm concerned about in this comic? That this doesn't happen in real life. Parents have no idea what their kids are doing and honestly, I don't think they even care. There has been much controversy about videogames and their role in causing violence. My belief is that if parents took a bit of interest in what their kids were playing, kids would have a better understanding of what is being depicted in games. I don't think that violent videogames cause kids to be more violent. Kids that do crazy shit after playing a game were probably going to do something crazy no matter what.

Sorry about that. Now back to your regularly scheduled humor.



Candorville 4/17/09

Dear Susan: Due to the current economic climate, you're fired. And please don't come into my office and yell at me because I'm a pathetic excuse for a human being that can't be bothered with experiencing the pain and suffering my gigantic bonus has caused.

Why Are There Giant Dog Statues?

First: You may have noticed a different look. That's because I got rid of all those pesky Google Ads and got some nice Project Wonderful ads. Right now, they're all blank, but soon there will ads from all kinds of places.

Second: There really isn't a second, but here are the comics for today.


PC and Pixel 4/3/09Either the joke is so intelligent that I don't get it or so stupid that I don't get it. I'm betting on the latter.



Lola 4/3/09
This is sadly true, as anyone with a Facebook account knows. The lastest update basically made it look like Twitter, but with more crap thrown in.



Ferd'nand 4/3/09
Where did Ferd'nand get that bathing suit? If you look closely at the first panel, he is clearly not wearing anything under his pants, and there is no suit pictured nearby.

Also, you would have to hit the ball with a force that is beyond human capability for it to do that.

Oh, my science! Ferd'nand is an android. Or maybe a mutant. Or maybe the writer doesn't care about the laws of physics.

Probably the last one.

Also, you're not a chef, you're a bitch.

Fruit? No Thanks. I'll Stick to Fats and Sugars

Here we are again. Enjoy the day's post.

Lola 3/17/09
Hahaha! What a great joke! Only a stupid animal would eat fruit and nuts. Hahaha!

Well, except for the people that enjoy not getting colon cancer.

And hippies. But they really are stupid.



Cheap Thrills 3/17/09

Why would anyone thing to eat a poached egg in an avocado? Poached egg = gross. Avocado = okay. Poached egg inside an avocado = not cool at all.

Betty 3/17/09

I hope they're going to see a movie. A theater production involving skinless dead people would be very disturbing.

Also, that's a really long way to go for a joke about sunburn.

Ballard Street 3/17/09

I think the point of this panel is that you should never annoy Joyce because she'll stab you with a fork. I hope that's the point because there doesn't seem to be much of a punchline here.
