I'm sure everybody's been waiting for the riveting conclusion to this utter waste of time. Hauled my old computer out of storage and booted it up so I could open my old bookmarks. The mystery comic is: The Bad Chemicals.



I seriously covet that trophy.

Whooo!! Peanizzles!!!!

This comic has been coming out regularly since 2009 and in all that time it has never shown a single spark of originality or artistic improvement or competence of any sort. I don't loving know why it existed in the first place and I sure as hell have no loving clue why it has continued to exist at all, let alone for eight continuous years. Reading a handful of these strips have made me question the point of my own life, I have no idea how the comic creator lives with himself.

What is "peanizzle"? Is it circa 2003 "gangsta" for penis?

Only 1 atom being split wouldn't create an explosion of that size though? It doesn't make sense. Maybe the explosion in the last panel is a metaphor that represents the effect of the divorce on their loved ones.

menage a 3 starting sticking giant ads on all their comics and i don't want to do the work to cut them out, so i'm not gonna post them anymore.

I thought the yellow guy in the first panel was a fantasy damsel in distress with huge boobs and her head thrown back but instead it's just the bald guy who has huge pecs on the back of his armor for some reason?

Man, it's almost like "Asking a dog 'who's a good boy?'" has replaced "2-3 nerds doing nerd stuff" as the default webcomic premise. I didn't think it was possible for something so innocuous to get so played out but here we are.

I don't know about the original reason but the more recent comics have kind of retconned the backstory. So now the reason they're called the "Decepticons" is because they're trying to tell people that the leaders of Cybertron were deceiving the public. Megatron was a political writing railing against the evils of a corrupt system (and it was totally super corrupt.) Once the war actually starts they're still the bad guys though.

So it's kind of like if I think the government is a bunch of evildoers so I start a resistance group named "The Evildoers".

As I recall, he wanted to be the ambassador to Vienna, but would have settled for France.

Huh, I've had multiple teachers say it was justice of the peace but all the info I can find online does indeed say ambassador.

The new cartoonist for Nancy is getting some heat, but she and the new iteration are actually very good. Check the comments on everything from April 9th onward, the Nancy superfans loving HATE it

but they are wrong



On the one hand the new Nancys are objectively better but on the other maybe we should just let octogenarians have the funny pages at this point.

The dickwolves thing was so weird because the rape part was completely incidental to the premise of the comic and if they had changed it to remove that part it still would have worked but for some godforsaken reason they decided to double down on everything.

You guys know Stuffit Expander is the name of a file compression program for old Macs right? The joke makes perfect sense it just isn't very good.

He's looking at Turkey.com because he wants to buy a holiday turkey. His boss sees him slacking off, he employs a reference to computing, an act he is savvy at and knowledgeable of, and tells the boss to "stuff it".

If you don't want to see someone draw something funny then why are you reading comics and not a joke book?

This works for movies too. For example: I don't see how anyone can call the Star Wars prequel trilogy bad with all that awesome CGI.

A good joke saves lazy writing better than a good drawing saves a lazy joke but they are both acceptable content.
That's bill watterson's stance on it and I feel like he's the fuckin guy who'd know

The problem is when none of the things are good. Or one aspect is bad enough that it overwhelms the others.
