It's a retarded/stupidly impossible situation in real life meant to highlight the stupidities of other real-life scenarios. And I certainly don't buy it as self-deprecating meta-humour.

And it has a transparent background.

I don't understand.

I guess you have a light theme.

I have the dark theme and I can hardly see it, since you can see the colour of the forum through the background of the image.

Yes, I use a light theme. Only an idiot would choose a dark background. :o Also, it shows as a light blue background to me.

Sarah probably likes John's shoulder to cry on when her current fling goes awry. He's safe and predictable when she needs safety and predictability. But he shouldn't get any ideas that her using him means she's willing to do the romance thing. Its not fair but what is? This is life we're talking about, right?

I'm criticizing the comic as a comic, not the content of the character's rant

Next time you ask a question, remind me to let you rot in ignorance. :o

As a comic it does what it intends. Which is, imo, to skewer the quiet, thoughtful type whose highschool woe gave life to the term 'nice guys finish last.'

That is a topic that the Internet has sucked dry aeons ago. The comic fails on several levels and deals with a worn-out, tired topic. It's shit, son. No wonder you're singing its praises

*shrug* Not particularly, but great many a "novel idea" have been masturbated dry by Intertrons enthusiasts, thus making them pretty old hat.

Clearly. I'll be sure to check with you first to get those masturbated-pretty-old-hat conclusions before wasting any time thinking because we all know that if something's been discussed a lot before, its not worth discussing anymore. PM ok?

That's not really what this exchange's been about, but if you're insecure about the merits of the ideas and issues you'd wish to discuss, you may contact our moderation staff, they will point you towards the appropriate posting section :up:

Man made mountain at the Golden Temple, Great Wall Hotel and Theme Park, Binh Duong, Vietnam - if you ever go to Vietnam spend a day or two here. The hotel is themed on the Great Wall of China and has over 400 rooms. The mountains in the picture are man made and have over 50 waterfalls, several temples and 100 warrior guards. Unfortunately it was pissing down with rain so we couldn't go up to the highest temple.

Sweet!

That is sweet.

Cool graphic OG. I wish we didn't have to wait so long for the Pluto Mission. The Republicans my starve NASA right out of the Beast by then... :(

Ziggy - Nice. The MJ one is cool.

Legos!

Their pie chart doesn't give enough for stepping on them, though.

Buddy Boy agrees.

Man I have bins and bins and bins full of legos from years back...I had such an obscene amount

I do believe you live uncomfortably close to me, if you wish to pass on or sell said legos for a charitable rate, I'm game.

Never sell Lego, you WILL regret it later in life!

Sorry OG. :(

I remember playing Lego with my son when he was about 4 years old, at some point in the middle of building some super fucking awesome space ship I blinked, looked around and realised it was 1am and my son had gone to bed 4 hours ago.....there I was all alone in the games room playing with Lego at 28 years of age and it was OK.

Never should have sold that damn Lego. :cry:

My kids play with lego I played with. :up: Hell, I still play with it. You know, just to show them how to do it.

Only incest 6000 years ago. It's not cool now, since all those mutations accumulated.


BWahahahahaa!

mutations that have absolutely nothing to do with evolution...
