> I’ve only seen the strips you linked to, and some are weak, but it strikes me that the problem is not the strips, but that the person writing the blog is pretty damn clueless. Some of the strips he listed had me laughing out loud (Captain Hook at a second hand store, for instance, or the extremely unreliable narrator).

Check the categories–I’m pretty sure Captain Hook was an LOL, not a CIDU (for those of you who don’t read the blog, that’s a Comic I Don’t Understand). There are at least two other categories–Ewww and Arlo (which is kind of like NSFW).

The comics aren’t chosen by the person who writes the blog. They’re submitted by readers, and then everyone can comment on them.
