I don't if I just never noticed it before, but I love that Ronald has the McDonald's logo on his robes. Gotta keep promoting that brand.

It would have been awesome if Ronald, while strangling Tails, had cackled out old McDonald's slogans ("KEEP A SMILE ON, TAILS! I'M LOVIN' IT! IT'S WHAT I EAT, IT'S WHAT I DO! HAHAHAHA!").

Can you imagine how confusing TGT would get after 5 years? You'd have Stick Stickley being the head of the illuminati while the Ham Burglar infiltrates the New Slaiyers to assassinate Jerry Seinfeld, the cyborg.

I know, I'm an iconoclast, but the fact of the matter is this: No non-OC character has been introduced to TGT that is not either from a game, comic, or cartoon (with Football Guy being the exception that proves the rule). That and that alone is why Seinfeld doesn't fit the setting.

i do got 2 questions with you on the forum and I've been wondering about for some time. ok question one what is your obsession with grammar? i understand its important but when there's a part that theres instead of there's i don't see much of a relevance to mention that difference or act like you don't know what i was aiming for or to explain to everyone else what i was aiming for lol but non the less its humorous :D question 2 what is with your obsession of assuming I'm tracing. even know i told you other wise.. i mean for months even longer then that every thing is grammar this and hes tracing that. I'm not angry i am just curious to your explanations for these things :D so its more of a friendly question then a I'm angry so tell me. just would like to hear why you think I'm tracing and your guys need to have all grammar perfect. so touchy with grammar even know its not that big of a deal

I love my lazyB but he has the grammar of a 10 year old who dropped out of school at 5 and grew up on the internet. Actually no that's not quite right, he honestly has some pretty special and unique spelling and grammar issues that don't fit into the typical mistakes and issues children raised by the internet often fall into. I've never seen anyone write quite like lazerbot.

If this was the truth, I would have stopped reading the comic ages ago. Honestly the grammar/spelling mistakes in TGT are a huge part of the charm. Sure, we joke about it, but I don't think anyone in this thread is against these errors.

And honestly, that's part of his charm. There's time for good grammar and time for bad grammar, and with lazerbot, I'm willing to side with the latter. Same thing with the tracing.

EDIT: Part of the charm of Tails Gets Trolled is lazerbot's wordplay, which fundamentally depends on the "wrongness" of his grammar and spelling. Whether it's deliberate or accidental on lazerbot's part is irrelevant; what matters is the result, and if that means accepting "bad grammar" then so be it. lazerbot's style would not be nearly as distinctive or notable without the quirks of his spelling and grammar, and the work would be impoverished without it. "Ironic like" doesn't even have to enter the picture to properly commend lazerbot's all-but-willing manipulation of the English language, and to dismiss the grammar as "irrelevant" to the work is to dismiss a fundamental aspect of lazerbot's writing. All writers have a style, and ignorance of what makes up one's style is to deny something of the writer's work itself.

There were some awful big facial closeups. I bet there are clues about someone being an illusion, they've definitely been infiltrated.



Edit: Yes. Hello Kitty is an illusion. In the past, Hello Kitty has had 5 petals on her flower.



. . . I can't believe I'm seriously looking back over these things to look for illusions. Lazerbot has achieved a truly immersive experience.


Edit2: Kermit might also be an illusion, he has a second line under his lip that has never been there, but that might just be to show his emotion.

Lazerbot has claimed from the beginning that he never traces anything. What he's asking in the second part is why people are so convinced that he does.

If I had to guess, it'd be because he has improved so rapidly.

I was honestly pretty amazed at how much better LazyB has become. I'm sure with a little more time his art will improve even further. That said, there are some areas where there is clearly work needed. Mainly with anatomy and shots of people running, but the first one can easily be written off because the story takes place in a world where cartoon characters are fighting each other over trolling, and the second one wouldn't take all that much to improve.

I think the tracing accusations come from how the older characters used to be drawn very well and very consistently, versus, say, his rendition of Batman which kept changing shape.

Are we sure he knows what tracing actually means, and doesn't just think we're accusing him of something completely different?

LazyB, nobody is against your grammar. If it mattered that much, we would have stopped reading. Just that some of your misspellings and such can make a person think about extra meanings (like "paste yourself") which just adds more to the comic. Other things make certain lines stick out, and thus stick in our memories ( "THOUGHS EYES"). Again, this adds something extra. I take it as a plus point.

As for the tracing thing, I haven't seen it said much except way back when you first started to improve your art, and like one guy two pages ago bringing it up again.

The bottom line is we love TGT, don't worry about things, keep it fresh, keep it real, keep it you, and we're all good under the hood.
