does anyone have that comic where it's like

introverts

a beautiful poet ah yeds

Extroverts

dumb baby party bithc

It's skewering the idea pretty clearly rather than one of those "aren't introverts so great" comics.

Explain how any of what Tiggum said is an apology. Explain how any of it is trying to rework any of the actions in the strips as a good thing.

So guys, this is a bit awkward but I have to ask. Yesterday I posted this comics and took it off after a couple of minutes because my wife hates it. And I felt bad that it made her feel bad. My intention was to show the different reaction women and man have towards the act of shopping. That women generally like it and it makes them happy, and men, who follow them around the store holding shopping bags, are usually kind off bored and slightly depressed. But my wife thought it just made HER look bad. She says: "this comics makes me look like something that I'm not. I do love shopping but we never go shopping together, and I never hug you in return to buying stuff because I buy whatever I want, usually on line. I don't need your permission. This comics has nothing to do with our lives and how they really are, and I thought your work supposed to be autobiographic. I'm sick of you making me look like a blonde cliche in your work. And that red boot is ugly"
What do you think?

andy capp used to beat his wife

In Beetle Bailey, Gen. Halftrack sexually assaulting his secretary was the only running joke the strip had other than "Beetle is lazy".

tbf "boss trying to rape his secretary" was one of the classic joke set-ups back then

And when you stare long into the abyss, you become aggressively, terminally chill

I like that the artist responsible for that shopping comic drew a metaphor for his failing relationship but lacks the self-awareness to recognize it
