MM&O's whole thing used to be explained by 'It's set in Tasmania'.

No way not to sound obnoxious with this but I feel it's more set in a kind of universal experience you get from being on anglophone internet but transposed to the real world. in a liminal space between the two you could say Grevling has a new favorite as of 17:50 on Oct 19, 2020 |

It's kinda funny how Oglaf is the example, since someone mentions that the work-safe ones are generally funnier almost every time the comic comes up. (which I agree with, not that all the NWS ones are bad or anything)

I don't know the titles of the comics, just the artists. The shitlicockter guy is Cutbu, the long-strips guy is Yang Young-soon.

I really like false knees. The drawings of birds are quite good and occasionally the jokes are on point as well. The main point is the artist really just likes to draw birds.

OK, this is obscure and I might have the wrong comic series entirely, but hopefully someone remembers having read it. It would be from when I still read newspaper comics so at least a decade+ ago. I think it's a Doonesbury strip, probably the daughter character, sitting in front of a TV. The TV says something along the lines of "Stop watching. Get up. Turn this off. Go outside. Get some exercise." She starts getting up and leaving, for a panel or two. Then it says "Just kidding!" and she says something like "I kinda figured." Anyone know the date, or at least exact quotes from it so I can search for it properly?

The Creeps looks like it might be super edgy, but it's actually pretty tame and funny (for a black comedy strip). Sadly GoComics removed all their archives for some reason, but there's bunch of them here: http://uniter.ca/author/jean-floch

Is the guy that does these still doing them? Is he still alive? Also, whilst I know these stupid computer comics never get political, the bloke who does them is in all the right demographisc, (old, out of touch, confused, angry at young people things), to be a Trump supporter. I really hope he isn't. Coz despite, or perhaps because of how stupid they are, I think they are sweet and endearing. BrigadierSensible has a new favorite as of 00:39 on Oct 20, 2020 |

Yeah I don't think you need to worry about him being a chudWikipedia posted:In February 2008, Boyce was involved in a protest which called for a greater representation of black cartoon artists in newspaper comics. The protest sought to bring attention to the problem of “tokenism” in newspapers, and brings to light the issues that many black comic artists face when trying to publish their works. In addition to Boyce, the artists that participated in the protest were Jerry Craft, Charlos Gary, Steve Watkins, Keith Knight, Bill Murray, and Tim Jackson. For one day, these cartoonists all drew a very similar comic strip, which showed a scene with a white reader looking at a minority-drawn strip and complaining that it is a rip-off of the Boondocks.

Ghost Leviathan posted:That's more towards the gay rats end of the spectrum I feel like the perfect example of gay rats is Raine Dog. The perfect example of "Whatever the gently caress this is" is Kevin and Kell because whenever someone shows me that comic I go, "What the gently caress is this?" The weird libertarian comic fits in here too.
