The one with the webcomics
Jul. 2nd, 2009 12:03 pmBecause I'm still working on a showcase piece for white asparagus, my creme brulee post, the audiobook I'm making for Penelope, and my second piece for
smallfandomfest . (I can't get the story to MOVE, damn it! I just need some filler! Shoot it in the head!)
And because I also like webcomics.
Dinosaur Comics

And a comic I was considering for a showcase post: Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.

Advanced apologies for people who worship SMBC. I know you guys fight wars over this stuff.
So I liked SMBC in the beginning. Many of the comics are smart and funny and examine aspects of popular/nerd culture in a great way.

Then maybe the guy went through a breakup or something, because many of the comics later on carried the same punchline. The guy tells the girl she is ugly and/or she has to lose weight. I really thought that was in bad taste, and not because I have vested interest. That kind of punchline works maybe once, and I didn't consider it the funniest punchline anyway.
