i would expand 'writers block' to 'the comic writing process'.

unfortunately that means this comic gets a big :| from me

It is and it does.

What's the deal with Social Media!

“We’re all alone on our phones taking dumps… they should call it “anti-social media!”

In the background, Larry David smiles and nods, knowing Jerry Seinfeld is oblivious to the entire show just being a burn on how shitty his comedy actually is

Why did I hear this in my mind in Jerry Seinfeld's voice?

My rule is .... if you think about sharing it longer than a minute .... don't share it.

Shit sometimes I type a comment too long and just give up/delete it.

and always its one of 2 reasons: rewriting one single sentence dozens of times or write half an essay but then decide a) dont care enough b) dont want to get involved or c) realize that you dont know enough to add anything valuable to the conversation

I see, so heathcliff is peak comedy

"Random little pun" comics are right there with the ones about writer's block IMO. I mean they're practically the same. Like a stand-up comedian doing a whole act about airports.

[–] crank0271@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But we never found out "what's the deal with airports??" /S[einfeld]

They're a liminal space, Jerry!

Don't forget the strawmen. So many strawmen.

"Look at my ideological opponent and their objectively dumb opinion that I so savagely destroy in a risk-free debate where they don't get a chance to defend themselves"

[–] CluckN@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Reddit had so many low effort political comics with obvious strawmen. Oh you don’t like my Trump comic with him eating poop? You must be pro-Trump.

Okay, so Mario eating a Mushroom and scrolling... And his friend Yoshi (an animal) telling him his social media feed is only interesting because the mushroom is drugs.

...the title can be "It's not the Algorithm".

i love how there were no words that could encapsulate the orange tier so its just a Guy

[–] capuccino@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

"Its behind me, right?"

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

How is observational humor different from the examples in "leave it in the draft"?

Unfortunately, the last tier rung drags this comic down with it.

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

S tier: Ziggy.

C tier: family circle, except when billy goes wandering

D tier: everything else

F tier: billy wandering around family circle.
