Piss Christ isn't even blasphemous and it's always funny when people drag it out to validate their islamophobic obsessions

first 5 comics, and we're off from a good start











I was taking too long to find the last one, and since it's labeled like a Kelly comic then it fits, shut up

The creator of pisschrist is Christian and did not seemingly intend for it to be a statement that Christ is piss, or belongs in piss, or whatever. It was also art instead of a political cartoon.

There's definitely room in art for transgression and subversion, but the Mohammed cartoon is basically just an A. Wyatt Mann cartoon directed at Muslims instead of Jews. The fact that it led to at least one terrorist attack doesn't retroactively justify it or make it less lovely.

We've already spent too much time talking about religion. Here's some pictures.

Is it a hotdog? A burger? A Goku?




I never had a game tape, but we did have a cassette reader on the computer. But everything I did on the C64 was on a floppy disk.




BoJack Horseman was created from this cartoon.

Can you just say it’s not that good without it being some hot take on religion? Like it’s visually just sort of bleh and gross. Somatic and stark. All visual pleasantries aside. Like, and oh gently caress I’m supposed to feel something, like a statement or something. I loving feel nothing when I look at that poo poo and I don’t like the painting judging me for it with the symbology. It could be gross on its own without the mental anchor, but maybe I’m just a loving poof for abstraction and pleasure. :shrug:

I guess joke's on me for engaging CB but how about sure, you can engage with something and not like it without it being a religious hot take, but you can also engage with something and not like it and have it perpetuate a lovely and dangerous stereotype.

... like this image I pulled off randomwaffle:


It's not good and it being not good has nothing to do with anyone's religion!

Dropsy! Dropsy the clown! By Gaspy conana!

Fantastic cyoa thread, and great adventure game. Heartwarming, and absolutely chilling. What a ride.

Btw Dropsy is the hero, and a genuinely good guy, and wins in the end, and helps everyone along the way.

Just the rocket, the babies typically come in later.

Those events typically ran multiple days. A good amount of the nerds would live there one or two nights with only a public bathroom for hygiene. The smell was not great by the end, no matter how fine it starts.

It's the main character from King's Bounty Armored Princess.

On one hand she spends her time leading troops and not fighting personally but on the other hand it is rather stupid looking and objectifying.

I was thinking Guild Wars or Lineage 2, but neither are quite right. It's going to bug me now.

It is indeed Dominic Deegan, and the godawful sequel series has its own ongoing mock thread right over here (:nws: because the artist finally got horny enough to just draw sad tits and sadder dicks every other page)
