I always thought that Seinfeld's stand up bits from the show were intentionally tepid in service of the premise that, in the show, Jerry was just a working comedian doing random nightclubs and not a millionaire super comic. All of the characters (aside from Kramer) were supposed to be fairly unremarkable in the fantasy universe where they lived.

dog did you watch seinfeld when it was out? Jerry's poo poo sounds unfunny/lame now in 2017 but at the time those opening monologues were fuckin gold jerry, GOLD!!

Probably because when I was watching it as a kid I didn't really hear any other observational comics so his stuff was ironically very fresh

I have never disagreed with anyone so much on the internet before, it feels like I've been kicked in the stomach by a horse

MMO captures the vibe of Australian adolescence extremely well in a "we only needed to be like, 5% dumber as teenagers to end up like this " sort of way

I don't get it.


Speaking of cups, I once made a comic about that too.
It's in no way referencing any popular culture thing.
Anyway, I made hundreds of these, but never translated them in english or put online.
The ones I did got like 5 views and internet doesn't pay anyway.
i know it's inappropriate these days to expect to make any sort of living with anything creative.



This one got me

MMO and pfsc are two comics that, to enjoy, you have to relate to just enough to be able to say "hoo man, I remember what THAT was like!!"

Achewood used to have an incredible reputation but I got the impression something suspect happened with Onstad and people got over it

I know he restarted the strip a bunch of times and I think each time it got worse and it sort of tainted the earlier strips as well? I don't know. I still love it but there's certainly a spot I usually stop reading it (before the "high school" arc somewhere)
