voivod ([info]voivod) wrote in [info]randompictures,


EDIT: My what a shitstorm of nerdiness this has become. Just so we're clear:

1. I didn't make this chart.
2. I don't read web comics.
3. This has become the biggest clusterfuck I've seen in [info]randompictures in longer than I care to remember.

Apparently nerds take their web comics very seriously.

Yeah, I'd call this fail. Diesel Sweeties isn't all that "pretty" - it's just copy paste. And calling XKCD not funny is basically saying "I don't get the jokes"

I wish it was just copy paste. I'd have an extra eight hours a day.

Dino Comix is pretty ugly. But xkcd is awesome so this is Fail.

why is XKCD in red?


Also, it's funny as fuck.

[info]voltjanstevens

February 26 2008, 01:01:41 UTC 4 years ago

To point it out better. They're parodying a recent XKCD to say how much XKCD sucks, and they want you to know this is about XKCD. XKCD.

[info]dreamserpent

February 26 2008, 01:05:07 UTC 4 years ago

do people always assume that people just don't "get it" when folks think XKCD is not funny?

It is also possible that they get it and just think it is not very good?

[info]gilmoure

February 26 2008, 01:10:03 UTC 4 years ago

Nope, if you get it, then it's funny. If it's not funny, then you don't get it.

Achewood is way too far right and up, Penny Arcade is too low and left, White Ninja isn't far enough right, and XKCD is just all wrong.

[info]dr_pepper_spray

February 26 2008, 01:40:50 UTC 4 years ago

Oh no, I think Penny Arcade is right on target.

Penny Arcade definitely needs to be rated "prettier" and "funnier". You can argue the humor all you want, but at least you have to admit that the art's superb. The constantly different scenery and stylistic changes are amazing. You're not going to find that anywhere else for free.

[info]dr_pepper_spray

February 26 2008, 01:42:53 UTC 4 years ago

I dunno, maybe I need to just hold my nose and read more Penny Arcade (I personally don't find it funny. At all), but every time I see it I get this Comix 101 vibe about it. Bland, Bland, Bland.

I find XKCD amusing for all the wrong reasons.

[info]poorsquinky

February 26 2008, 01:47:15 UTC 4 years ago

Does that mean you find it sexually arousing or something?

Yay! It's xkcd fanfic!

Needs more gay sex, though.

Whatever you think about the other Choices would any of you dispute Perry Bible Fellowship? Because personally I think it's spot on.

[info]wulfsbane

February 26 2008, 02:03:50 UTC 4 years ago

I agree with you regarding Penny Arcade, but moreso because some find it gorgeous art and others find it crap; the same can be said for the humor content.

As for PBF, I think it's in the correct quadrant, but a bit too far out for my tastes. I'd bring it down and to the left a dozen pixels or so.

There isn't anything in the upper left. There's TONS of pretty/not funny (and not good) comics out there.

the upper left would be full of shit.

What is with all these PvP haters? That strip is great.

And you're just not getting xkcd at all if you're sticking it there, even if it's in reaction to the fruit chart.

Heh, heh, awww.... Someone told me her show was really, really good. I don't really believe them because her standup's not that great. She is pretty though. Got that look about her. Man what I wouldn't do to that....

Where's my Cat and Girl? Halfway up, far right (assuming "funny" can also mean "existentially stimulating")?
