I totally thought you meant Jeff Buckley. I forgot about his dadBlood Brain Barrier said:Disappointed. When I saw the words "Tim Buckley" I thought one of the greatest singer/songwriters of the 20th century had resurrected himself.
This was Buckley's attempt at drama in an otherwise silly vidjagames strip, though the last panel is shopped (as is custom).Xsjadoblayde said:I don't get it.
Is there a joke there? Am I supposed to be feeling anything?
Decade old memes? Yeah, that's just drama.undeadsuitor said:are memes drama now?Silentpony said:Ironic really there's still so much drama over a 4 panel comic from a decade ago. Seems like CAD played you all for chumps.
CAD was largely somewhat silly in its subject matter, but its writer would occasionally try to switch things up a bit. For the sake of example, the leading lady's ex was an outright manipulative tool, not played for laughs. The strip in question in the OP, however, was part of an arc dealing with an unexpected pregnancy, and this strip revealed that it ended in a miscarriage. Now, CAD was always...controversial at best. On the one hand its viewership was such that the author could live off the ad revenue alone. On the other hand, it always seemed far easier to find people who hated the strip rather than people who liked it. The former jumped on this strip largely in one of two ways: 1) snidely dismissing the convenience of the miscarriage in a way not dissimilar to how pro-lifers chide abortion as a way of ducking responsibility, and 2) Indignant sarcasm to the effect of "Because miscarriages are funny, amirite???" The image in the OP was a 'fan' edit to the comic made in a similar vein.Xsjadoblayde said:I don't get it.

Wait, HBomberguy made a video that wasn't about Fallout or Sherlock that was good?PsychedelicDiamond said:There's a brilliant video by YouTube's HBomberguy on the comic that really deserves to be seen:

Memes live about 6 weeks. Some, like Dolan or Sad Keanu lived for only handful of weeks, some lived hours like the whole n't thing and Uganda Knuckles. Others lived for nearly 3 whole months, like Steamed Hams or Nice Guys or Rick and Morty.undeadsuitor said:So...was it not drama last week when it was only 9 years old?Silentpony said:Decade old memes?
