The greatest Cyanide and Happiness yet.

Another fantastic webcomic — Starslip Crisis

I’ve linked to comics I’ve liked in the past, and have been meaning to do the same with this one for a while. Starslip Crisis is the cleverest web comic I read. Set in the year 3441, the crew of the Starship Fuseli take art and culture to the furthest reaches of the Galaxy.

xkcd — tribute…


xkcd — A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language — By Randall Munroe

I instantly thought “Calvin and Hobbes” when I saw the second half of this… Then *WHAM*

Godwin’s Law Bites Me

The day after reading about Niniane’s brush with Godwin’s Law, I had my own internal conversation cut short by it…

Godwin’s Law states that

As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.Excerpt from Wikipedia on Godwin’s law

Now, when someone does make the comparison to Hitler their opponent is declared the winner and the discussion is over.

Well, sadly I invoked Godwin’s Law on myself today. I was thinking about how weird it is that I used to be so certain that I would always be a Christian. I made promises to God that I would always be His, so certain that no hardship would ever make me doubt Him.

I tried to think of other situations where kids have made promises that might have been misplaced. That’s when I thought of the Nazi’s and their brainwashing. Then I had to invoke Godwin’s Law and exit my own conversation. You know how humiliating that is?

Regarding Mussolini For good measure, here’s an xkcd comic about Godwin’s Law>

Top Five Perry Bible Fellowship Comic Strips

The Trial of Colonel Sweeto Cover The Trial of Colonel Sweeto Cover Image

The Perry Bible Fellowship is the comic strip of Nicholas Gurewitch. It’s at times very dark and always absolutely hilarious. There are around 200 strips on his site, and it’s well worth the time to read through them all if you have time, but today I’d like to introduce you to him with just a couple of the ones that I find very clever.

I’m sorry, I swore I’d never do this

I told myself this blog would not just be made up of snippets of other people’s work co-opted and written into mine. So I’m very appalled at myself for what I’m about to do — namely: stick someone’s web comic into a post and call it a night.

But damn if this one isn’t really funny. More than that it’s a comic about a future that I feel is really possible and it scares me to death.

I’ve only just discovered Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal (RSS), but it’s hit-rate is high and I find myself laughing loudly to more than every second one.

Why Fred Basset is the “Dumbest Comic Strip Ever”.

Update: 2007-06-02 I don’t care if you like Fred Basset. If you were thinking of commenting read this instead and then go away!

Many of you already know that Fred Basset is close to, if not the dumbest comic strip of all time. I know for a fact that there are whole religions based on pondering the worthlessness that is “Fred Basset”. For those that do not know, Fred Basset is a comic strip featuring a basset-hound that does ordinary dog things, and comments about them as though they are remarkably funny. They aren’t.

Now there never was much debate about it being a good comic, but in case there were any remaining basset-hound loving comic-readers with the sense of humour of a toasted marshmallow that thought Fred Basset was an amusing slice of suburban doggy life — I present the following.

Reader Beware! Before you click, you must know your immortal soul will be in jeopardy as you read it. It will cry out as though stuck by the very pitchfork of Satan himself. Hold on, and pray to whatever gods you must. I take no responsibility for it’s hideousness.

CTRL-ALT-DEL Comic

I have just spent one and a half days straight reading every CTRL+ALT+DEL comic that Tim has drawn. I am a fan. I can’t say that I agree with his characters views on Macs and Nintendos, but as God hates console fanboys, I shall not start anything here. Anyway, with today being new years eve eve, I’ll say happy Winter-een-mas to anyone reading this in the month of January, and hope that Australians can celebrate the holiday season in summer (summer-winter-een-mas?).
