    That comic looks like it could be from the mid 2000s, like Delta State, or that one Strung Out album cover, or something

    If you find a piece of media that you enjoy, be happy. You’re already ahead of the game; you had a good experience and no one can take that away from you. Thing is, not everyone’s going to like the things you like. Some people are going to have a bad experience with that piece of media, and they should at least be able to talk about that experience without the fans throwing a tantrum. Unfortunately, that’s rarely the case.

    Can someone explain the humor of the 4 panel comic the character in the first panel likes? What’s the red liquid in the container about?

      If the red has a curvy shape due to a girls round bottom, they come running,

      If the red has a curvy shape due to a round bottom flask, they recoil

      Different kinds of chemistry, is my take

    I sure see a lot of comic writers complaining about people who don’t find their comics funny. Maybe it’s the rest of the world, or maybe it’s them?

      This comic isn’t about people not finding it funny but more so someone being respectful of what someone else enjoys.
