in one of the books my dad had, charlie brown loses in the spelling bee because he misspells 'maze' as [willie] 'mays'. which is less sad than the time he misspells 'beagle'

Ever since I read that Michaelis book I periodically doodle objects in little groups of 3s, it's a good exercise. It inspired this thread: Things that are satisying to draw a simple cartoon of

the thing that rly irked me in the michaelis book is that he seems to think schulz deliberately made up all the bad childhood memories he would mention in interview years later -- being picked on by bullies, etc. -- because he (michaelis) couldn't find any witnesses to verify it! i mean, i had a shitty time in first grade too, but i doubt any of my classmates would remember that 80 years later.

i'm only a little upset that the re-introduction of actual webcomics kind of broke the spell of peanuts as the best webcomic ever.

Three Word Comics is a collection of "I thought a vaguely funny sentence / twist and then inexplicably my muse said I must draw it with all necessary explanation"
Rage Comics is a flaming ball of shit.
I was not aware of either of them until just now.
You have both brought shame to this thread.
And this is the webcomics thread, so well done there.

I would seriously take a rage comic over p much any "web comic" besides pbw and maybe half of hark a vagrant
― camp lo magellan (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 29 July 2012 11:50 (eleven years ago) link
it is nobody's fault but my own, but I just read the whole Three Word Phrase archive bcz it looked like a webcomic I saw one wryly poignant strip from once and I was going to defend it (wryly poignant is p. much all I want out of comics at this point in life), and that strip is totally not in the archive so it probably wasn't TWP at all, and I suck for even looking

to be fair, it's ok (maybe even good!) for a webcomic. pretty sure any random sampling of webcomics will pull up worse webcomics.

The later ones are definitely more likely to be funny.
peanuts is still the best webcomic, though.

And the others are way too cute and self-aware.
