Today's comic (4/18)

Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

You know what the sad part is? That edit was a lot funnier than the comic.

Now I shall laugh like a school girl!

[quote="Deacon";p="482196"]Holy hell, people. Let's just clear this up, shall we?

Greg, as you are hopefully aware, that was not a serious or sincerely angry attack on your person. I'm telling you this, because apparently the fanchildren have been let out of their cages without adult supervision or perception...[/quote]

Hey... I stayed in my cage. I'm a well-trained fanchild.

At any rate, I'm not really a fan of Will Ferrell, but I haven't seen Anchorman, so I won't bash it. But when I see it... ooh... ::shakes fist::

*tee-hee!*[/quote]Ah, Liz, you entertain me so... but I just played about 20 hours of Pokemon instead of studying for my first year university finals, so maybe my taste in entertainment can be called into question.

The real question, of course, is how many of these I can get you to do. I suppose I shall need some bait first, in form of reiteration of what I said in the other two posts: That comic has no punchline. It does not insult the movie. It does not critique the movie. It does not bash the movie. In short, it does nothing, except show that Greg was probably too busy with his new wife to come up with something that didn't suck -- which I can't say I blame him for; if her prowess as a lover is anything like her prowess as a forum moderator... uh... God help us all? No, that doesn't fit. Whatever.

Guess I pulled a Greg and couldn't think of a punchline.

Huh?

It had a punchline. What are you talking about?

Ugh, Anchorman had a few good moments, but overall, it was pretty crappy. I like Will Ferrell and Christina Applegate, but my god, man, make a decent movie.

And WCH, the punchline was "I think our friends hate us". Just so you know.

I thought today's comic was good. Will Ferrel, obnoxious on SNL and on the larger screens. Now that I think about it, I've never paid money to see a Will Ferrel movie. He can be funny, but there's an essence of trying too hard in his roles as an actor.

Anyway, great job Greg. I'll buy something someday.

Christina wearing nothing but an apron and a smile was a beautiful sight, you must admit.

apron and a smile? I don't remember that part? Did I miss out on some director's cut?

Well the apron did cover her breasts. Her exquisit breasts.

I think I ate your chocolate squirrel.

I have to say, I didn't think the movie was that funny the first time I saw it, but we burned off a copy anyway. And now I think it's one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Maybe you should give it another chance?

MrBawn, you get 100 irony points.

I was going for the irony points. And maybe a Family Guy reference.

@Darkhan
That's my point, which would be clear if Liz didn't keep editting out my messages. "I think our friends hate us" isn't a punchline. It's the kind of thing one says when they can't think of anything better to say, and to which no-one even grins, at most nods in agreement -- and that's if we're in the same room and you use all your comic timing and inflection to make it as funny as you possibly can. It's not a joke. It's also old, I've heard the same thing a number of times before, and it wasn't funny then either -- to be exact, I don't think it was supposed to be funny the other times.

"I think our friends hate us" is indeed a punchline. It made me laugh, but I guess you have a different sense of humor than me, WCH.
