Would it be alright for me to post Bad Machinery in here, since it's now syndicated on GoComics? I realise it's also a webcomic (and I tend to keep my posts about the overall comic to that thread), but I'd like to share it if that's permissible.

General rule is if it's on Gocomics or Comics Kingdom, it's fair game. I'm pretty sure Magnificatz started as a webcomic before being picked up by Gocomics, for example.

3 strips a post OK? There's going to be a bit of backlog to work through, but I don't want to do a supermassive image dump every post.

To be fair ... the Gocomics posters for Bad Machinery quite like it, outside of the occasional puzzlement over some bit of British slang.

That said, it has fewer than 1,500 subscribers (as opposed to 25,000 for Nancy or, ahem, 170,000 for Garfield) so there's a bit of self-selection going on.

It's...it's glorious.

The only thing I use checks for anymore is rent, and the only reason I don't pay it online is because there's a $30 "service fee", which is a thing that apparently still exists.
I write one check quarterly for our water bill because for whatever reason you can't pay online and if you pay by card over the phone they charge you like $5 to process the drat thing. Drives me nuts and I don't appreciate it at all.

This is the thread I never knew I needed. Big thanks to everyone here.

That said, I haven't seen my nominal guilty pleasure, Darby Conley's antigarf Get Fuzzy. Bucky (the cat), Satchel (the dog), and owner Rob have pretty well-written dialogue spiked with the occasional punch line.

this joke always confuses me a bit whenever it comes up (and "homework over winter break" jokes seem to happen a lot). not because of the homework itself but because all of my classes as far back as I remember, certainly all of middle and high school, had concrete endings at the end of the semester. very, very few classes stretched over a year, the vast majority were a semester long.

I loved those comics. :( Comics Kingdom and my Chromebook are no longer on speaking terms. I can't get any of the images over there to load. I don't know what happened. I go back every once in a while to see if images are appearing, but nope. Some day I hope to be able to afford a real laptop and then hopefully I'll be able to post them again, along with my other favorite classics. Until then, this is what you get:



This just makes me vaguely remember when (I think) Paul F Tompkins was saying that Jeremy Piven seems like the kind of guy who would bow to you when saying hello in a smarmy faux-spiritual manner.



That article about Gilchrist posted:

“We don’t have any public comment right now,” said John Glynn, president and editorial director for the strip’s distributor, Andrews McMeel Syndication of Kansas City, Mo.

Why? :laugh:

Not that I ever doubted, but we can throw this on the evidence pile that that assistant's allegations were true.
