Zero Punctuation: Webcomics
- Thread starter Yahtzee Croshaw

I'm very tempted to say "OHHH BURNNN!" but it seems like the kind of thing that'll get me banned, so i'll only quote myself.
I'm surprised yahtzee's still gnawing at his beef with Tim Buckley, enough to make a video about it.

On an off note, 'Married to the Sea' is an example of an awesome web comic.

It has nothing to do with video games though.

Unexpected, but still quite funny. Still, be nice to have some games out so you can rip of them, the new star wars games, Fable 2, Starcraft etc etc.
It must be said, Buckley is a tosser and I am starting to seriously wonder about his sadist or not since he openly admitted he'd planned this miscarriage storyline since he started the engagement storyline, which was two years ago. Now, I realise it is a comic and therefore not real, but I was under the illusion that CAD was supposed to be funny (mostly) and if he can nurture a storyline like that for two years for a supposedly funny webcomic, he's just fucking sick. Time to call in the boys with the straight jackets and massive erec...I mean, syringes.
I'm tolerant of weak humour, but even I admitted CAD was pretty much beyond hope when the dramalicious miscarriage storyline was carried out. And Explosm's parody of it was one of the most entertaining things I've seen in a little while.
... On that note, a very subtle potshot this video. A very entertaining, very subtle potshot.

Well despite the overt referencing of CAD's recent storyline (and I'm sure Buckley is already quivering with excitement thinking of the witty, wordy retort he's going to come up with in a comic posted 6-8 months from now) the general idea really can be applied to every gaming-related webcomic there is - Penny Arcade included, but I think they grandfather out by actually being the grandfathers of gaming webcomics and generally not sucking.
I need to sleep now, and I'll be surprised if there's less than ten pages of hate-slinging at CAD from people who've probably never bothered to read it by the time I wake up. Not that I'm saying it isn't justified or anything, but... actually, there is no but. Commence posting of 4chan memes.

Hehehe, Stammer got banned. Good job this week Yahtzee! Reminded me alot of Homestar Runner's flash about webcomics as well.
I always wonder if it's worth the banning that [i/]always[/i] follows.....Stammer said:
Pretty good one, Yahtzee really doesn't like CAD does he?!
Well he pretty much blew any chance he had of accusing Yahtzee a hypocrite with that one. That's like closing down a gay bar because you claim to believe in equal rights.SaneIntolerant said:
This couldn't be more appropriate--at least to me. I was *stumbling around a bit yesterday and seemingly every other stumble was a some lame-ass webcomic. Good show, Yahtzee!
