I actually think this is pretty funny.
A character saying something stupid, then the world contorting to make it true is a time tested joke.
Yea like it's not the funniest shit ever but fuck
The people on this site who think penny arcade and control alt delete are literally the same have something manifestly wrong with them and their ability to perceive things
So did these ever have a punchline that wasnt just "lmao violence"?
"lmao video game reference you'll only get if you religiously play every new release the second it comes out"
Would be nice, I've never seen any decent ones and I've always wondered how they got so popular to have an expo
wasn't PvP their other big competitor? PA always kind of sucked imo but it was always better than its rivals (one of the lowest bars on planet earth)
Moment of silence for 8-bit Theater, the webcomic that brought us swordchucks.
B^U is a joke referencing the fact that CAD uses (used?) the same face for every character.
They were better than average. I think it was honestly that they Had a well run forum back when such things were rare. They got in at the beginning of web 2.0 gamer culture
I remember that forum, I played EVE with some of those guys back in goonfleet. They were pretty alright.
Cultivated good forums, managed to get good ad deals, being consistent, good merch.
All things that seem easy to say but are hard to actually do.
The fact they are still going today is impressive.
They have also been willing to shift with reality in terms of their underlying views.
Like the whole dick wolves arc, they initially were mad and doing the whole “comedy free speech blah blah blah” then eventually listened and adjusted based on why people were mad.
The punch line isn't "lmao violence" the punchline is the absurdity of not one, but two doctors supporting the existence of this fictitious claw shrimp, which you, the reader, is aware is not a real thing
The violence is incidental to the joke
5% infectious, 95% tiresome. I'm surprised no one's shown it to me before
Cynical and terrible. I'd much rather have these comics than 20 different reddit artists who make comics about how much they love their husbands.
