this is really hard, apparently gaggle folded a while ago? jim huber has only done one strip all year, and i'm really struggling to figure out where creators.com has hidden the dude with the scratchy drawings and the thumbs-up osama

thankfully day by day remains completely hung up on right-wing blogosphere "scandals" that nobody else has heard of. most recent strip:

I live on a different planet than these people

i've grown accustomed to her face tat (m bison), Sunday, 4 November 2012 02:30 (eleven years ago) link

It's been said before on one of the many past threads, but if there is a legitimate reason to look at this stuff beyond wanting to scare yourself (or feel better about yourself), it's that through cartoons you can get a really quick, shorthand glimpse into this alternate universe. No long essays to read, no links to click on, but the simple stipulation "this is intended to be funny" makes you start to realize all the kinds of crap that has to be ASSUMED AS TRUE for the rest to hang together. And indeed..it's a different planet.

People who voted for the re-election of George W. Bush with great enthusiasm, demanding to know how Obama could let Benghazi happen.

"Biggest story since Watergate"

They're desperate for a smoking gun in the right-wing blogosphere aren't they? It's not enough to hate Obama's policies - he has to be guilty of corruption, impeached, imprisoned. But they keep coming up with nothing. It's like the Clinton years before Lewinsky, only more intense.

DRAWING A SPEECH BUBBLE COMING OUT OF A BUILDING DOES NOT MAKE YOU GARRY TRUDEAU YOU STUPID TWAT

That's a building? I thought it was abandoned Donkey Kong.

goole, Sunday, 4 November 2012 17:32 (eleven years ago) link

I do appreciate that he tried ("tried") to render the actual specific NYT building, rather than like a generic skyscraper or something.

Really bugs me how many of these people not only cannot draw but just haven't made the slightest effort to improve. Day By Day has existed for a decade and still looks just as shitty. By contrast, Trudeau made huge strides in the same length of time. I guess the same gripe could apply to a lot of webcomics - something like Sluggy Freelance, which I haven't read regularly in a lonnnnng time, still basically looks like it did in 1998....but it's just a silly gag adventure/soap strip with no pretenses to be delivering THE HARD TRUTHS from a position of moral superiority so maybe I find the simple craft appealing rather than a sign of some sort of hypocrisy between talent and posturing...

Doctor Casino, Sunday, 4 November 2012 17:59 (eleven years ago) link

A bold departure from his usual strategy of delivering Breitbartish talking points via the medium of bosomy women.

Dudes i can't believe Obama is in with Chinese government banks. Thankfully Romney has the good sense to have never ever done business with China (or Iran for that matter).

Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Sunday, 4 November 2012 18:32 (eleven years ago) link

Really being a right wing cartoonist seems like the easiest job in the world. The jokes pretty much write themselves don't they?

they really, really love this angle. Again, it's funny to realize, in Foxland, this is one of Obama's most famous remarks - I strongly doubt how much anybody else has any idea Obama said anything at all along these lines.

Doctor Casino, Sunday, 4 November 2012 18:35 (eleven years ago) link

I remember it

Infamous dickbiscuits (silby), Sunday, 4 November 2012 18:59 (eleven years ago) link

It was the main laugh-line in Romney's convention speech, in fairness.

Andrew Farrell, Sunday, 4 November 2012 19:18 (eleven years ago) link

"Laugh line it RNC" doesn't really contradict "well-known in Foxland" though.

Doctor Casino, Sunday, 4 November 2012 19:26 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, but it suggests it's known outside as well.

Betmatrho has it wrong. Obama's first name isn't derived from Hebrew (lightning) but from Arabic, meaning 'blessed'. The Hebrew cognate would be Baruch.

The extra 'is' was what I was getting at but the poem reference would still have passed me by, thanks,

American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Wednesday, 7 November 2012 16:02 (eleven years ago) link

Maybe, "There Is No Joy" is some dog-whistle shorthand for Obama, like did he once say something that could be misquoted and misconstrued as saying that America has no joy or something? So, "There Is No Joy" is in Mudville?

my 2 cents stays 2 cents if i keep it in my pocket so when i share it with people it's less about being instructive or incisive and more just hopeful it can turn into silk scarves or doves through the magic power of dialogue.
but i can diggit if an arched eyebrow is about all that post earned.
and yeah, i probably should have put a few more quotation marks around that phrase.

weird mix of "cutting' details like that, and just kinda miscellaneous yard-sale scene setting. was expecting more of the stuff on sale to reflect famous obama scandals. i guess maybe the golf balls suggest he takes too much time off to play golf or some other such thing. and he's selling off all the USA swag, sure. but lava lamps, stereos.... lazy!

You believe having control of your privacy is important. You also believe Ronald Reagan was the greatest president in your lifetime - a man who honored the Constitution and the Rights expressed therein.

We agree, and that's why we started this company - to give you the privacy you deserve and the ability to share the Reagan name with every email you send.

at 33 bucks a year i admit i'm tempted
