comics: PA, Dinosaur Comics, Achewood, PBF
xkcd if it stops sucking, A Softer World is ok, and I like Wapsi Square but haven’t read it in ages
GPF was good but I haven’t read it in about a year because the schedule got so messed up
Dinosaur comics? have a little self-respect
I will read what I will read.
Buy your whole worth to the internet community depends on what webcomics you read or don't read.
It must be an attempt to parody the idiocy of CAD. That's the only explanation I can come up with.

A few minutes looking through the archive explains it: the CADsucks joke is that the PBF strip needs no dialogue, but he went ahead and added some anyway, which is apparently making fun of the real ctrl-alt-del guy's tendency to do this. That's the shtick - to either remix an existing cad comic to make it funnier, or to photoshop another comic strip like Dilbert or PBF to make it unfunny like ctrl-alt-del.
edit: where he's remixed a CAD strip, he links to it directly underneath the comic
That's interesting. I'm not big on chick flicks, so I've never noticed or thought about it. But I agree that some movie like Old School would be unlikely to work with female characters.
I don't understand the cadsucks thing, is it just making fun of comics or dumbing them all down to the cad level?
I think it's a good example of why you shouldn't parody things if you also are a poor humorist.

Well a little explanation would be all thats needed really. As it stands it's hard to even tell an edit of the original CAD and the other comics just seem like he doesn't find them funny. It's confusing.

I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
I read, cyanide and happiness, pvp, Dr.McNinja, Order of the Stick, Errant Story, Goblins, CtrAltDel, QC, Simulated Comic, Sam and Fuzzy, Bear and Kitten and some other odd stuff that update very rarely.
Does it bug anyone else when webcomic people make grammatical and linguistic errors in their comics? Errant Story is by far the worst, but the one that bugs me the most is the time when Kurtz tried to make a bros-before-hos joke and absolutely failed because he had no fucking clue what "aforementioned" means. He never even went back to correct it.
It bugs me only because I know that if the author is a retard, the comic will not be good.
That's reaching a bit, I think :P Grammatical mistakes don't necessarily indicate retardation. I really enjoy Errant Story, but it's got like an average of 2 typos or run-on sentences per page.
Run-ons are one thing. Typing "are" in place of "our" is another.
So for a job, I am being asked to pick the two cities I'd like to work in from this list: Santa Monica, Kirkland/Seattle, New York, Boston, Chicago, Boulder, Pittsburgh, Irvine, Phoenix and Mountain View.
I believe those are all in the US, but I'm not sure (I've never even heard of Santa Monica, Boulder, Irvine or Mountain View). The only city in there that I've visited is New York. I know next to nothing about any of these cities.
So American [chat]ers, pick my future. Where do I want to work?

Do you like air that's the equivalent of smoking a pack of cigarettes a day? if so, go with Pittsburgh. If the prospect of living the desert excites you, go with Phoenix.

Mountain View is in the Bay Area, around Silicon Valley. My boyfriend lived there for a summer doing an internship for Handspring. He said it was rather nice, but very pricey to live in. And traffic is bad, I think.
Out of those places, I'd pick Kirkland/Seattle and... Boston? I guess maybe Santa Monica. Irvine might not be bad, but it's not a very interesting place to live. Kirkland/Seattle would be my top choice, though. I loved living in the Seattle area, and the East side is definitely the place to be.
What kind of job are you going to be doing? What kind of things do you like? Enviroment? How much money are you potentially going to be making?
1. Computer science R&D.
2. I like medium cities. When it has all the services and businesses of large cities, but still has the feel and green spaces of a small town.
3. I'm in Canada. I'm used to weather going from fucking cold to fucking hot. I'm ok with both... it's the transitions I really hate.
4. I'm thinking between $60k and $100k a year.

really does work better than this
both in terms of writing and panel arrangement.
that's...that's the point. It's parodying CAD.

I'd say kirkland/seattle would be good because there are a lot of forumers who live in the area who could help you adjust.

No... it was signed for by R.O.N.N. at the drop off location.
They just have no idea where it ended up.
Probably repaired and sold on eBay for $1000.
They're gonna send me a new one, but all my saved games are gone.

Anyone here ever been there? Aside from Chuch's claims of magic, what kind of life would I have there?

Well, Aem lives there, if that's any indication.
Also, there's a song about it.
Backside text is the "open one of my six mouths" rant.
Well that song is crappy so maybe I would stay away from that place.

You could hang out and get high with Aem and cruise for debate girls...

You don't think the fact that the city turns the chick into a prostitute is a better indicator than the (immense) quality of the song?
Second will be Santa Monica, because I've always wanted to live in a place with palm trees.
