It will never cease to impress me that, on paper, Anne Gibbons and I probably agree on quite a few issues, and yet I always find her contributions to Six Chix utterly insufferable. Maybe it's because her attempts at "political commentary" consist of toothless and yet self-righteous observations, like in this strip where I'm supposed to believe there are people who haven't heard of the Green Party despite it being perhaps the most well-known third party in the country? Maybe it's because the other five contributors are so routinely apolitical I find the intrusion unpleasant? It's the damnedest thing.

Have some people completely misinterpreting the message of the comic!

One could take that two ways:

1. Toni’s thoughts exactly on why Shannon has to go.

2. Toni’s thoughts exactly on why Toni even has to go.

Unfortunately, sadly, I am feeling it is the latter…

quote:

It looks like Toni is getting cold feet. Again.

quote:

It might not be cold feet on Toni’s part, but, rather the fact that Toni never wanted a big wedding, while Brad does.

Mostly this strip is poorly done visual jokes, but occasionally it switches into abysmal wordplay with absolutely no physical element so the horse just stomps around a void.

Despite Scott Adams being a garbage fire, Dilbert is consistently funny eight times out of ten. Really, I think Scott Adams' garbage fire-yness came about from an over inflated ego thanks to people sucking his dick over how smart and insightful he is for being able to string together daily jokes about office culture.

Couldn't find a wikipedia article on Woolf, but he was known for his "waifs" from what I gather. I found a pretty in depth couple of blog posts about him here and here. If these cartoons are from 1899 as they appear to be, he died shortly after they were published. Here's his NYT obit.
