I found this while working really hard trying to make the balance sheet work. http://www.qwantz.com/index.pl?comic=609
You know what's strange, Clay? That's a similar reason as to why I started boycotting Om. Hmmmmm.... Om and boycotting. Something sounds familiar here. Om, I swear that one day I'll actually sign back on with AIM or MSN. And you still owe me. BIG time.
Still, I enjoyed that particular example! Thanks, Om! Here are links to some great spelling-, grammar- and punctuation-related comic strips (though I warn you, the Queen of Wands strips are not for the faint-hearted - you'll see the Ba apparently working with someone who seems to be my alter ego in one of them) and some general English language-related ones: http://www.queenofwands.net/d/20020925.html http://www.queenofwands.net/d/20031003.html http://www.queenofwands.net/d/20040204.html http://www.queenofwands.net/d/20040628.html http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/10/11 http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2003/07/07 http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2004/11/03 http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/09/02 http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/02/04 http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=640 (Where Faye said exactly what I was thinking...)

If so then more's the pitty, jokes on you, etc etc.. Besides, I've not got a million dollars at the moment. For shame, for shame. Edit to say: And I'm not rubbish, you are rubbish, you rubbishy, rubbishy man! So nya!

Edit to add: The artists skills were not to blame, of course. Only my slow intake.

Nonsense! It is because he is the Great God! And also, of course, because Garner is always dogged by people expressing shock at what he says.

[quote:2033644802="chrisjordan"]Look at the cherub's expression.[/quote:2033644802] Ahhh I see it now. A shocked little cherub.
I had a spork. A nice rubbery, plastic one, all yellow and green. It was intended to one day feed my small daughter, so she would not need the confusing riddles of trying to use two implements at once. But it disappeared under mysterious circumstances. I blame Grace or Doors. Haven't decided who yet.
[quote:7e71de1cb2="Buzzfloyd"]Doors, clearly. Blame bounces off my Buzzfloyd Self-Righteous™ Holy Aura.[/quote:7e71de1cb2] Or it could your natural imperviousness to sarcasm. Either one.
[quote:8001628e22="Buzzfloyd"]Yes, it could be, because I don't understand sarcasm. Or sardonicism, or irony.[/quote:8001628e22] Well isn't that ironic.
[quote:4e33ae735c="Garner"]the garners boycot that strip because it is rubbish.[/quote:4e33ae735c] You crazy mad fool! It's a comic of CHAMPIONS. So there.
[quote:f0a1228d68="Buzzfloyd"] They do indeed! Were you unfamiliar with them?[/quote:f0a1228d68] I knew the Penny Arcade ones. The Queen of Wands comic in general is new to me, and I like what I've read so far.

Champions I tells ya, CHAMPIONS!!
Ba doesn't read Daily Dinosaur Comics, and it doesn't really appeal to his sense of humor. However, he approves of it on the basis that it enrages Garner, and what more can he ask of a comic strip?
