Congrats, Rall. This is only bad insofar as the art is atrocious and the text overwhelms image composition.

Like, Rall has been doing a relatively good job of putting out non-poo poo opinions and not letting his narcissism and single-minded focus on certain issues poo poo up the page. He lets his terrible craft do the making GBS threads.

There's a difference between something being political and being about politics, and redpill nonsense is firmly in the former camp.

[*]:siren: Chris Muir and Day by Day are banned from the thread. :siren: The mods feel that the increase of outright nudity mixed with MRA bullshit makes his cartoon unsuitable for the thread. If you must discuss Muir/DbD, then take it to the Bad Webcomics Thread.

Thank gently caress.

quote:

AGC: Shorthand for "A Good Cartoon." Basically, you intentionally interpret a comic with a fairly obvious bad message as having a good message. The original point of this was to poke fun at some of the really poor metaphors that some cartoonists were crafting, but the concept of AGC has been run into the ground. If you want to see some quality ones, Saint Sputnik has a blog dedicated to these.

I hope this hackneyed phrase is banned next.

I said it last year, so I'm glad someone else got it for the new thread. Dude is the thread's goofy pun grandpa, but he's not responsible for actual historic comic strip Snuffy Smith. It's like saying Gilchrist created Nancy.

MEAT IS MEAT
On one side, less Muir is good, on the other, banning bad cartoons seems like a bad presidence. I mean, most can be considered bad, yet we would miss the hatred and misery they add to the thread. I guess in an ideal world, people would just stop posting that shitstain, but I can see the need to regulate possession, and use of bad cartoons, as they constitute a clear threat to the common welfare, unlike guns, who apparently promote it.

We gazed into the eyes of madness... And all we found was horny.




I'm half-seriously wondering if we'll end up having someone insane/obsessive enough to create a gimmick account that pretends to be Muir that does drive-by posts of DbD in spite of the ban.

Not that I'd encourage them. As amusingly wretched as he is, even I thought he went way the gently caress too far into "irredeemable fuckwit" territory than he usually does with those more recent strips.

Muir wasn't banned becaude it was bad. poo poo, Henry is just as bad. Muir was banned because it was increasingly apparently MRA fanfiction and not about commentary on politics.

Muir's not been banned because he's bad, he's been banned because an increasing number of his strips are a) not safe for work and b) not political. (MRAism is not political, at least not in a vacuum.)

On which note: Pigman's done his first new comic in over a year, and for once it doesn't involve women!

The Fuckbarn was a "storyline" in day by day, wherein our rugged self suficient hero bravely took over his Dad's ranch that was the size of half of texas for no money, kicked his dad out of the barn he was living it, and turned it into a country club. Of course the thread, after getting constantly blueballed by it, started speculating an exclusive club ina barn in rural texas would be used exclusively for gay sex.

I think my favorite part was him making his fifty year old wife dress in skimpy clothing to serve rich white men. Not to say older women can't be attractive, but I'm pretty sure their clientele want someone young and perky to slap the rear end of.
