What is this comic called? I feel like sourcing should be required.

I feel like I can say it here compared to that other site, but I never liked these comics. Maybe 1/100 felt clever or funny and I hated that stupid meta of adding shit to find in your boring ass comics.

Glad you finally found the courage to speak up! If there was one thing I felt was missing from Reddit, it was people sharing how much they disliked certain web comics.

The difference isn’t something missing. The difference between the sites is here has more actual discussion. While people still feel the need to downvote anything they don’t agree with I still think it’d be interesting to have discussions

I was blocked from r/comics for saying that I didn’t like Pizzacake’s stuff. So I get what you’re saying.

I didn't take much issue with Pizzacake until their comics became this weird circlejerk about people who didn't like them. There was no joke just "Oooh I made another one! Look how much I don't care about the haters! They're sooo upset!" Each complete with a strawperson getting super triggered that they would continue making comics.

I get it, you put time and effort into making a comic and it's frustrating to see people who don't like them. Let off steam with maybe just one comic. But after seeing multiple of the same exact thing I was really done seeing that kind of rage bait in my feed.

The entire thing was screaming “look at me! I’m quirky and weird! Isn’t it cute!”

And no, it’s not cute. It’s cringy as fuck.

Making your comic about yourself is automatically lame.

What's the hidden thing that you're supposed to find here?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Normally Gary the dildo is in every comic, generally hidden.

Hes a bit easier to find in this one.

Excuse me, he's a butt plug.
