There are about 4 unique panels between those 3 Garfields including a Sunday. Also, it really was another cat burglar Heathcliff.

Twelve by Pies posted:"Sigh, remember those wonderful days when women were completely dependent on men?" God I hate this comic. I feel like Those Were The Days is not actually one-sidedly about how things used to be better, unless it actually believes that so hard that it is indistinguishable from satire. I mean the guy in the first panel doesn't seem too happy about having to drive his daughter around.

Mikl posted:Y'all should do well to keep in mind that this strip, especially past this point, is basically furry soap opera: you can expect all kinds of drama, especially when it relates to family, marriage, children, and so on. That much I get but this strip just came across as especially vindictive. Maybe that's common for soap operas though

I generally don't think "Those Were The Days" is being as malicious as people think and it's just simple "Boy things are different than how they used to be!" observation humor. Maybe I'm being too generous to it but it doesn't really stand out as being mean-spirited to me. That being said I'm surprised everyone ignored the one about how UFOs are real from a couple days ago. Also, Crankshaft ignoring Covid for over a year, and now making jokes about it as if people aren't still dying from it, is amazing. I know it's not gaslighting but is this gaslighting?

My favorite thing about Foob is how often it would be indistinguishable from Cruel Little Stories if it was a few panels longer.

The difference with Nancy is that the sentiments are sincere, because all these 8 year olds are completely ground down and joyless from the neuroses of living in the social media age.

Every time I see an Overboard I want to post about it but don't know what to say. Imagine what someone would think if it was their first time seeing it, every day? It's low on the list of strips I dislike, but something about it just makes me mildly irritated every time I see it. It's inexplicable. Also lol Computoon

JethroMcB posted:Yeah, I'm reading this as "How lucky am I to be here at the birth of Roller Derby; classier than Foxy Boxing, and with more legitimate competition than Mud Wrestling" Every time people reply to Those Were the Days on here I feel like people are reading too far into really basic observational humor cause they feel like it must be the same kind of caustic boomer humor we see today even though it doesn't feel that way to me at all.

I had no idea Overboard was such a longrunning strip. Really odd to see it described as "nihilistic and black [humor]" in that interview when now it can come off as so saccharine and trite. Vintage Overboard should be interesting to see.

Doomykins posted:"I wanted to work without being bothered, so I faked my death instead of just ignoring people." That would imply that Batiuk's comics can react to new information within less than a year. If he could feel shame about that kind of thing the multiple weeks of "post-pandemic" Funkys and Crankshafts wouldn't have run. He's just really this bad of a writer
