About time we got recognition! 
Anybody want odds that Bucky falls into the vat of finished product?
I love Get Fuzzy 
However, the liberal agenda that the artist propigates gets old after a while 
Liberal agenda? You’ve got to be kidding! His slams on France have been the funniest things around. Hardly “liberal.”
“Aw. And that’s your surrendering hand. You use that all the time!”
“Just go ask Chrysker”
Heh. ZING!
He seems to be an equal opportunity offender… but there are continual references to ‘vegetarianism’ and some music artist (i can’t remember at the moment) which came off as decidedly liberal.
Mainstream media is overbearingly liberal, so it gets tiresome to see it in humor too
Wait, vegetarianism is a political viewpoint? Man, and here I thought it was not eating meat. I think I’m doing it wrong.
are you gonna claim that the vast majority of vegitarians ARN’T liberal? In fact, if you could find a Conservative (or even moderate) vegitarian, i’d be quite impressed
Never heard of “Get Fuzzy”, but I have to admit that the artist is skilled and has done his homework. That primary looks very authentic.
Only dirty people let animals live inside, though. Homebrewing is all about clenliness!
I categorically deny any involvement with Bucky. No comment on Satchel and/or Rob.
HEY! If anybody around here does Homebrew it’ll be me, got it?
What? Oh that homebrew! Well, it never hurts to make it understood anyway. 
If you adopted it as a health choice, rather than a cruelty-related choice, that would seem to span political boundaries.
Also, the main character may be a vegetarian, but he isn’t always presented in a favorable light. Hell, his pets outwit him at times.
Bucky’s filthyness transcends all attempts to rein it in.
And I thought I was a brewing geek - I can’t believe Rob was being so picky about it not being a “bucket.” OK, it’s food-grade plastic and not a mop bucket, but dude, you clean and sanitize the thing, maybe you made volume level marks on the side, you got a lid with an airlock for it… but it’s still a bucket.
I don’t even want to think what contaminants Bucky routinely carries. Of course, Rob is going to try a Belgian ale this time.
Lambic ala Bucky?
Well, there’s Adolf Hitler (oooh, look. Godwin’s Law in comic strip thread .)
But as Ferret pointed out lots of people are vegetarian for health reasons which is not a political view. Beyond that, while probably most people who don’t eat meat for cruelty reasons also have liberal political views I’m betting there are conservatives and moderates who don’t like eating anything with a face, either. I would suspect the majority, but hardly the vast majority of vegetarians, would also quailfy as liberal.
Beyond that …well my goodness. If he creates a character who happens to be a vegetarian and listens to music deamed “liberal music” for some reason…that still isn’t pushing an agenda. It’s creating a character.
Liberal agenda…in Get Fuzzy… :dubious:
You really need to stop looking so hard. It’s a comic strip with a talking cat and a talking dog. Liberal agenda indeed. :dubious:
Anyway, I love Get Fuzzy. One of my favorites.
If you’re worried that Get Fuzzy has a liberal agenda, you worry about too many things. Sometimes a banana is just a banana.
I think Satchel is actually going to be the one to screw up Rob’s brew. “Well, last time you said you had to put coffee in your stout, so I put in all those coffee grinds you threw in the garbage.”
I never understood Get Fuzzy. Never found it funny. The jokes seem kind of…elementary. Am I missing something here?
I’m more of a Doonesbury man myself.
Adam
Elementary? Elementary??
*Rob! Rob!! Can I eat the fish on this wallpaper? (Bucky)
I thought Belgium was just a made-up name like Hobbiton or Hoboken. (Satchel)
This outfit best expresses my signature ruggedness. (Bucky, while wearing a cowboy outfit) *
I find these jokes so over the top that they are sublime. And I often notice that the funniest jokes here are just by-the-way, and not the punchline of the strip which may not be nearly as funny.
:eek: :eek:
<<cognitive disconnect>>
I’ve got all the Doonesbury books (including the Yale strips) and I personally find Get Fuzzy to be the most amazing comic. I value it as much as the Far Side, more than Bloom County, and slightly under Calvin and Hobbes.
