Most of the time Zippy just kind of makes my eyes gloss over because it's so loving banal while thinking it's "alt", and that's a minor crime when there's poo poo like Dustin or the Hollbrook strips in this thread, but that one.... man, I don't know. That is pretty goddamn pretentious and lazy. Have some Wallace to fix things.

His Divine Shadow posted:What a lame-rear end forced situation, she could just have changed her loving clothes. It's established that she won't do this because she is a hippie who wants to be "close to Mother Earth". Also she feeds people to her pet hyena. My sympathy is limited, is what I'm saying.

root posted:Her father has taught her that constantly making GBS threads on her brother is normal and acceptable. Dusting works his rear end off in a steady string of temp jobs while trying to find full-time work, never gets any credit for it. Dad constantly shits on him for not having a respectable office job because we all know they just hand those out once you graduate college. Meg is the golden child in contrast to Dustin being the designated fuckup(and the strip format means she'll conveniently never have to reach the age where she's battling the job market too). A boomer/millennial morality play.

Meg is the worst character in Dustin (and that's saying a lot) because she's the most obvious mouthpiece for the writer's Boomer entitlement fantasies. "See, look - a young person who *agrees* with me! She's one of the *good ones*!"

 You know, Luann, you do have a job and you live with your parents. You can just go buy some caviar. Go blow some money on a tiny little jar, taste it, throw up, and then cross it off your extremely tame fantasy list.

That is pretty goddamn pretentious and lazy. You zippy-sucks types pop up every few hundred pages and always assume everyone agrees with you. Why does a cartoon about goofy nonsense make you so angry and disgusted you start swearing? You admit yourself this thread is chock full of strips with zero effort and actively malicious ideas, but that you get most worked up about the plotless clown. I just don't really understand. Zippy's injected little doses of inoffensive gibberish into underground newspapers since before you were alive, but you're comfortable deciding whether it is or isn't quote unquote alt - then lmao who are you to call anything pretentious Actually I typed all this before I remembered that the Zippy guy dunked on Dilbert so hard, Scott Adams published a whole series of offended strips with Dogbert mocking Zippy. That should be all the reason you need to like Zippy, and I'm afraid agreeing with Scott Adams on anything is grounds for committal so you'll need to stay here until the cops come please.

zippy is boring or mediocre when at its worst, but also achieves heights of delightful absurdity. i feel like when i'm reading it, there's like 50% of the context i need to fully "get" it missing, so i get how that could seem pretentious. i just think it's silly tho  i don't think zippy takes itself seriously enough to actually be pretentious.

I don't know if Zippy is bad or not. It's just bland to me. I'm here for actually engaging hate reads, and a few strips that don't actively suck.
