Interestingly, approximately 90% of people trying sovereign or sovereign-type crap give up and go away the first time they get smacked down. They never try it again. It's only a very small proportion who persist after failure. If you slam them early and hard most will never try it again.

One of our local judges has a great way of dealing with them when they won't identify themselves, which is basically to say 'Oh? They're not here? Ok, warrant for their arrest issued.' Most then promptly say they are present.

A HUNGRY MOUTH posted:

There was a storyline in which rabbits began to fight against being eaten by using guerrilla tactics and crude carrot-shaped-stake-thrower guns (because RABBITS, haw haw, Holbrook joke). This was treated as horrifying terrorism. It ended when a protagonist rabbit sacrificed her life to destroy the resistance forces and ensure that her kind could continue to be killed, sold and consumed en masse. This was treated as ultimate heroism.

But don't worry, the parallel-dimension human version of that character fell through a weird portal and became a rabbit, quickly and completely replacing the one who died, except now she bluntly points out how differently animals do things compared to humans (HOLBROOK COMEDY :master:).

I don't remember why Hal Holbrook is fair game for the newspaper comics thread, because he is webcomics compressed into human form, but I've read way too many loving "Kevin and Kell" strips and experienced way too many metaphors that don't make sense even before factoring in the setting's legalized genocide.

Goddamn, for some reason I was auto correcting Holbrook to Hal Holbrook and I was so confused as to how the funny old guy who does a pretty good Mark Twain impression was connected to a lovely comic. But Bill Holbrook and Hal Holbrook are, in fact, not related. Thank god.

For those without GIF creation skills, the same effect can be achieved by opening both cartoons in new tabs and quickly switching between them. (This is actually what I did when I couldn't immediately spot the difference. I have zero patience, especially for a Gary McCoy cartoon.:v:)

For actual commentary: look at those goddamn hands. How can someone be such a bad artist when their job is drawing cartoons? You can't even use the "it's his art style" defense, because those hands would be badly drawn in any art style.

Uh, huge slam on frogs out of nowhere in this post? They don't even represent a particular political party or concept unless they're specifically labeled, like maybe a panel with Kermit singing about rainbows and being labeled GAY AGENDA or realizing he's got a hand up his butt and saying "I don't think I like this Obammercare!" Leave frogs alone, you jackass.
