Johnny Walker posted:The Keypad Kid© is the mascot of the Keypad Kid Project, which hopes to educate the public on new waves of technology to bridge the digital divide at homes, businesses, churches, and special groups. I remember looking up the Keypad Kid® Facebook Project™ at some point last year and finding that it had not updated in like 6-9 months. Also the last update was like a cropped version of the Keypad Kid® thumbnail from the most recent (at the time) Sunday Strip. Charles Boyce is a man who understands that it's important to be very computer savvy in the modern world but is completely lost himself. Oh wow, a comic about my downstairs neighbor's dog that has been barking since 1 PM today and hasn't stopped!

amigolupus posted:What exactly is "the internet of things" again? Because that sounds like the stupidest way to call whatever your thesis subject is supposed to be. Also, wouldn't Dethany telling the appliances to behave mess up her boyfriend's thesis defense? I mean, how can the committee even be sure that the appliances are working as intended if Dethany told them to behave a certain way. "Internet of Things" is the term used to describe "smart" appliances and outlet plugs and the like; household objects that can be controlled via the internet. (The security of IoT devices is pretty poor and a very complex issue, so get ready for Galaxy Brain Holbrook to deliver a hell of a treatise on the topic) FrumpleOrz posted:

Kennel posted:Dustin Dustin finds a new way to get under my skin; Egg whites are bullshit, eat the yolk and get the nutrients. A little fat is what your body needs in the morning for energy anyhow. Also there is no proven link between dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol, so don't give me that crap either!

From what I can tell as my eyes skim past it, modern Dick Tracy is a strip about a 90 year old community theater actor who is married to a woman some 60 to 70 years his junior; on occasion the titular cop comes through and shoots somebody

Zanzibar Ham posted:I'm wondering if Holbrook decides that Venus became "too hot" because of mer-made (hyuk) global warming or because it remembered it's so close to the sun. Because Venus is pregnant with the child of a sentient shape-shifting computer planet. Just mash all the worst Holbrook bullshit together.

Vargo posted:Apologies to Johnny Walker, but I absolutely had to post today's Mark Trail. Kid in Panel 1 looks like he freehand copied something by Mike Allred. Panel 3 looks like he did the same thing but with, I dunno, an in-between frame of Homer Simpson falling down as his reference. Also...that kid is lying in bed? With his head at a 45-degree angle? I'm a side-sleeper and I'd be hard pressed to contort my body like that.

Johnny Walker posted:Rex Morgan MD So does every cartoonist in the world have some dark family history involving alcohol abuse or what I'm shocked that this Mary Worth storyline actually turned out to be a thyroid issue and not "Oh, Iris, you're just puffy because of your RAGING ALCOHOLISM that was heretofore unaddressed"

She should've died already, and we're going to have to put her down."

Chuck Buried Treasure posted:Kind of a shame about Retail, it was very hit-or-miss for me, but when it did hit it was great. I like that he’s actually wrapping up with a finale storyline, I’m interested to see how everything pans out for all the characters. Also curious what Feuti does next, if he’s retiring from comics period or if he’s got a new strip up his sleeve. Blog post says he's going to focus on his career as a children's book writer/illustrator, so this looks like it's it for him in the funny pages. I was expecting a swerve into Grumbles being purchased by an Amazon-style online retail behemoth so he could explore "new" storylines (with the same ol' "Customers are poo poo, management is stupid" punchlines.)

readingatwork posted:Calvin and Hobbes (Dec 18-19, 1986) Ooooo, man, this strip pissed my Mom off when I was a kid. I don't know if she was fully on the Satanic Panic "Ouija boards are wicked sin devices" train or what, but also invoking "God" in the comic strip was just too much.

FrumpleOrz posted:Frazz Blech. Yeah, I think I'm done posting Frazz and I'm gonna drop it. I doubt anyone is going to object. Between this and the one about Inuits, I get the sense that the author wants Frazz to be inverse Dilbert, a strip that makes topical references highlighting inequalities in culture. The problem is that he is both terribly ill equipped to talk about these subjects and also literally incapable of telling a joke.

Powered Descent posted:It started out really good, but it gradually became nothing but "Nancy is a self-centered jerk" over and over and over. Felt like the recent "Nancy thought she'd be good at being a blogger (or whatever the thing was) but finds it boring and unfun" strips were saying something deeper

Y'know what I loved about learning cursive writing as a kid? Being told I wasn't doing it right/holding my pencil correctly and belittled because I didn't make my lovely handwriting look exactly like the lovely worksheet. it's definitely a skill that has served me well in my job working on a computer 9 hours a day
