Two Panel Comic
1: [Blue background. A slightly overweight white man wears a camo bullet proof vest over a black t-shirt. He has a black baseball cap on his head and wears a red bandana over his nose and mouth. He wears a menacing expression on his face.]
Guy: I’m a Proud Boy and I will never stop fighting for true manliness!
2: [Pink background. The Proud Boy now twiddles his fingers, with an abashed expression on his face. His eyes are drawn in an anime style with an anime blush across his nose and cheeks.]
Guy: But I also gotta hide my face because I’m a widdle soft-as-baby-shit chicken.
PizzaCake is political Garfield
It’s not clever, it’s not funny, it’s not edgy, it’s not smart… it’s the predictable safe, tired, thing and for some reason people eat it up
“HAHA, Mondays do suck!”
“Right, why cover your face if you’re so proud?”
Genius level creativity here, definitely not the same tired joke everyone makes all of the time and have been making for years
You heard it here, Folks.
No more making fun of conservatives hiding behind masks. Velvets tired of the comments.
Make fun of them all you want, but maybe don’t go with the most obvious jokes of all time
This is the political version of, “it didn’t ring up? It must be free”
Do people not like Garfield? I love Garfield.
One of the first things I could draw well consistently was the dog. It was/is a great strip to imitate to learn to draw.
Garfield is notorious for being lame to the point where there are no real jokes… Garfield comics are just Garfield saying the same thing everybody says
For instance, I googled “Garfield Comic” and the first one that showed up was Garfield walking up to a mirror, Looking in the mirror, walking away from the mirror, and the last panel had Garfield think, “when did the cat in that mirror get so old?”
There’s nothing to that comic, It could have been one panel if you really wanted it to be and that “joke” is the same thing my Grandma said when we walked past a store with a reflective window
And that’s all this PizzaCake comic is
Literally everybody was like, “if they’re so proud why do they cover their face?” – it’s the political equivalant of, “If it didn’t ring up it must be free”
This shit sucks
You realize humor isn’t always the point, right? Relatability is one of the biggest reasons people read comics like Garfield. It’s not funny that he hates Mondays, it’s relatable. It’s human to seek that kind of connection. People often enjoy reading Garfield comics because we enjoy finding validation of our desire to be lazy. That being said, they can also be hilarious; I remember rereading this one all the time as a kid, and just dying of laughter.
I’m not super familiar with this comic’s artist, but I can see why you compared them to Garfield - this comic clearly isn’t trying to be funny so much as it’s trying to connect with the reader about our shared frustrations with the state of the world. It reminds us that, while the world is stacked against us, we still have like-minded people to turn to for support. It’s nice to see that.
In other words, the average person is dumb and so they’re entertained by dumb things
“You like money and sex? Me too! We should hang out”
In other words, people often enjoy simple pleasures, and simplicity is not to be confused with stupidity.
Sure. Yes. And also I do hate Mondays. I do hate shit heads who uproot our society.
Yeah, the joke is ‘tame’ but it’s good that this is what the norm is. Someone needs to state the norm. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ did I chuxlle reading it? No. Am I glad this content is normal. Yes.
Why comment? Just ignore the post. Others seem to like it. Why hate on it?
This has to be the most accurate description of PizzaCake.
I’m convinced most guys like her because of her spicy content. Which, I mean, go PizzaCake.
I hate people defending her like she’s some sort of edge lord.
She has an onlyfans or something? (no not requesting the link/name/whatever)
She has a spicy tier on her Patreon where she releases nudes and stuff.
Well, that certainly explains a few things. Seems kinda… weird, to be mixing both things on the same platform. Usually people keep those separate.
Efficient, though. Fewer platforms to divide one’s attention means less mental labor.
true, but i dont know… feels like if your mixing your comics and your nudes on the same platform, that maybe you arent confident in your abilities and need tits to draw more attention to your art. Not a judgement, just an observation.
smell like bitch in here.
You show up every single time someone is remotely critical of Pizzacake and defend her.
Why? What’s in it for you?
Not who you replied to, but reading all the haters’ comments has become part of the pizzacake experience for me. Personally, I’m not sure why so many people spend so much of their own time and energy making the same criticisms over and over, but I know I will see the comments every time one of her comics is posted.
For me personally, it just annoys me that such a profoundly bland and mediocre artist gets such a ridiculous amount of support.
And over some very bland, middle of the road takes no less.
thats more creative than anything PizzaCake has ever written
Hey at least we don’t get banned here for calling out hackery.
