I just want the damn things to be honest and funny. Don't try to pull at my heart strings, don't try to insert an out-of-nowhere pop reference as the only gag and don't try to fill space to fill space. All I ask.
VG Cats didn't thrill me, but I acknowledge that I was born during the Nixon administration. That said, this was funny:

(And I'm not really some crazed rage-comicaholic. I remember when The Simpsons were known as the crudest thing on television and since then, I've seen Beavis & Butthead -> South Park (->Terrence & Phillip) -> all down the line to where we now have c&p'd panels with badly drawn Disney characters speaking in mangled text. Can't wait to see what comes next.)

Hey Whiney, when you try so hard to be an asshole on the internet, it affects people's "IRL life." The division isn't as clean as you'd like it to be.
― bamcquern, Monday, 30 July 2012 05:14 (eleven years ago) link
yah, but we do have a general line of demarcation regarding people's jobs or unwanted conversation that connects their ILX username with their IRL namesso deep breath let's all be cool? feel free to call each other dicks maybe? i hear that's what the kids are doing these days

The sweaty babies = classic surreal farce, not my tiptop favourite thing but I'll eat it up all day, sure. The same joke as eg Father Ted (which might be my tip top favourite thing, now that I think about it)
The apple store comic it's against = shit in a can. And totally filling space to fill space, the first two panels could be removed and it'd still be as funny which = no funny. And also with the pop culture reference that you hate?
Is it a thing where you see the art as being as bad in both, but twp is worse because it's trying?

Cuh, some of us were doing comics drawn badly for humorous effect years before these 4chan upstarts.
However, comics where the creators actually give a shit about quality can also be worthwhile. Such as Nedroid or Gunnerkrigg Court.
Who knows, perhaps there is room for both in this world. IMAGINE THAT!

I'm making fun of web comics and you're making fun of my job and career and personal life. There's a clear, unblurry distinction there and if you can't see it, maybe the moderators can

When did WGW go off script and get personal with anyone here? Unless you're all taking these twee-ass strips to heart and finding your chivalry threatened when they're called out for the shit they are.
I probably need to just take my business over to this thread since both the dolans and the "kids have fun" strips can join hands together and be as one there:
What's the worst online comic strip?

In January 2012, Variety reported that Disney picked up a pitch Landis made for a space adventure focusing on a brother and sister. The film is set to be produced by Wedding Crashers producer Andrew Panay.[20]
