Hahahaha, Disney makes movies that often contain animated animals who experience an adventure in a way so as to reinforce a message of acceptance and good will towards others. Get it?




:psyduck: Because I sure as gently caress don't.

I thought it was a jab at the "Princess of North Sudan" clusterfuck, basically saying "Disney will turn anything into a movie, no matter how asinine"?

I like that people sometimes make fun of cartoonists for being too explicit and overlabeling everything, yet so far three people have missed the "Bull stands for Bullshit" in that Ramirez, one even after somebody posted the Ramirez from last year where he makes the exact same joke but more blatently.

Also, the "dependapotomus" is a two-way street. The people in these specific kinds of military marriages are servicemembers who are trying to game the system, because by getting married they get more money, better living conditions, and a few other benefits. So there's a big element of schadenfreude in there too, "People who try and cheat the system are going to end up with lovely spouses." Plus, when you're marrying someone just for the benefits, even when things get bad you're going to stick with them anyway because divorcing loses you all those goodies.

It all contributes to a very real culture where there's a sizeable number of lovely people gaming the system, and everyone else jokes about it. For people that aren't in or aware of that culture, it can easily be seen as just woman-bashing. And while the dependapotomus is almost always a woman, that's just a byproduct of the fact that the military is overwhelmingly male. Less than 15% of service members are female, not to mention the fact that the author of Terminal Lance was an assaultmen and women are still barred from active combat positions. (Or they were when he was in the corps, I think since last year women can technically train to be assaultmen.)

Either way, it's very much a product of its environment and that context seems to be lost on some of the posters in this thread.

Five! Five lazy cartoons from Drunky Duck, ah! ah! ah! :tinsley:

Edit: But no, seriously, what the gently caress is up with Tinsley? He gets a bug up his butt about one thing, be it a weird fish, Hilary's southern accent, dinosaurs, trigger warnings, and he churns out half a dozen cartoons about it. Why?

I just imagine Tinsley has a dart board in his office, with sections divided into "MALLARD" "DINOSAURS" "HILARY CLINTON" "THAT loving FISH" and "NERD AT A PODIUM"

The bullseye says "TRIGGER WARNING", and his aim gets better the more he drinks.
