People poo poo on Jim Davis for making all of his creative decisions from a marketing perspective, but at least his drive to be ruthlessly capitalistic in his enterprise has kept him from being a constant embarrassment like Scott Adams...

yeah, jim may have licensed his characters for every product under the sun, but he hasn't (as far as i've seen) went on a rant genders, "superiority", nor publicly listed his incredibly long list of being scammed

I saw he got dropped from 77 newspapers yesterday and I was wondering why.

amusingly, this is because a newspaper group, Lee Enterprises, was cutting costs and enforced a uniform comics/syndication package across all of their papers instead of having unique layouts/
selections for each one

The Daily Cartoonist posted:

The change will be drastic to [St. Louis, MO] Post-Dispatch readers. If I read the Waco Tribune-Herald statement correctly, The Post-Dispatch comics page will drop from 34 to 10 comics!

even funnier, they're going with Scott Adams' syndicator, Andrews-McMeel, but they dropped Dilbert because they're too cheap to pony up for too many long-tenured strips, not because he's a right-wing blowhard

as you might expect, the kind of grampys who read newspaper comics are furious, but not because of Dilbert! they're madder that poo poo like Baby Blues and Bizarro are gone

he has in fact always sucked, he was just way less vocal about it pre-2001 or so

one of his books had the pro-tip that if you're the messier one in the relationship you can just: stop cleaning. your partner has only 2 options, either clean or let their standards relax, either way you don't have to do anything!!!! those are the only two options!!!


btw the woman he was married to when he wrote that divorced him? idk why tho

when i was younger, i assumed all the characters were supposed to be glib parodies. i didn't realize it extended to the creator until a few years ago

specifically when he lost, then recovered, his voice. what did he do with this miraculous return? open his mouth and spout the dumbest takes possible

whoa whoa whoa. I don’t want to be the guy defending dilbert here because Scott Adams is a shitstain, but his comic is decent. userfriendly is slashdot, the comic strip and is painfully bad to read.

did scott adams say that if hillary were elected he would be murdered in the streets by lib gangs? or was that esr

also the only smarty-pants comic strip that is not tedious and awful is saturday morning breakfast cereal. don't even @ me with user friendly, xkcd, dilbert, phd-comics, ugh
