I will say RLM is funnier than George Carlin

Ehhhhh, no? Not really at all?

Odradek · 2015-09-25 02:31:39

George Carlin as a comedian just seemed to state his opinions in an angry way

yeah calling the tone "earthy" is some monster cable grade audiophily, lol

Not necessarily. I wouldn't call it "earthy," though. More gritty. Like literal grit stuck in a record groove. But in a good way somehow.

i mean it's a dumb pun

Odradek · 2015-09-25 02:33:12

Now I feel bad

Imipolex G · 2015-09-25 02:33:40

RLM is funnier than George Carlin, who is funnier than xkcd, which is funnier than having your kneecaps sawed off.

Section42L · 2015-09-25 02:37:02

I like all of those things, although XKCD not as much as the other two.

I also like Bill Hicks.

I think we can all at least agree that The Oatmeal is pretty lame.

fun fact, I almost included Bill Hicks in that lineup

He's all about that clapter.

XKCD can at least phrase their obvious points in original ways most of the time.

Salix Babylonika · 2015-09-25 02:42:50

I have zero patience for "I am an angry man who is angry" comedy.

Say something funny or get off the stage.

I would cheer you up if I could but I don't think I can.

if only I had a funny Youtube video on hand

Salix Babylonika · 2015-09-25 02:49:09

anyway The Oatmeal is just inane bullshit disguised as earth-shattering revelations.

it's like xkcd's belligerent cousin, except Randall usually fact-checks his comics.

Salix Babylonika · 2015-09-25 02:49:47

or it's that "alot" comic.

my mythology teacher in high school had that thing pinned to her door

Fossilmaiden · 2015-09-25 02:55:13

colony bad for bad, bad

Section42L · 2015-09-25 02:55:23

Yeah, I don't have anything really against The Oatmeal.

I can't be mad at anything that can serve as a good gateway into alternative culture for people. Mine was No Logo, and we can all agree that's kinda embarrassing in retrospect.

I just get annoyed when people get stuck on these things and refuse to dig deeper than the shallow clapter that things like The Oatmeal provide.

Alot has nothing to do with The Oatmeal. It's from Hyperbole and a Half.

How so? Once again, I had a rather embarrassing gateway myself. I once took Cory Doctorow seriously, for crying out loud.

If I didn't enter things that way, though, I probably wouldn't be here today. Hence, I can't be mad at anyone else who enters things through that route.

Tre · 2015-09-25 03:01:52

I had a period of time when I very much enjoyed The Oatmeal, and one of Cory Doctorow's novels is still up there with my favorite books.

(I also still like Drake.)

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some schoolwork and a corner of shame to attend to.

Obā-san · 2015-09-25 03:02:13

Little Brother was a pretty good novel, if a bit over-the-top at times when its political leanings were concerned. BoingBoing also seems pretty quality from my occasional visits there.

I dunno. I just got personally embarrassed by how into him I used to be.

He doesn't seem like a bad guy, personally speaking.

Section42L · 2015-09-25 03:13:38

It might be something where I picked up shame about liking him from elsewhere and absorbed it too deeply into me.

I apologize if so.

Hexartes · 2015-09-25 03:15:14

Man, I disagree with Odradek too and I agree with your sentiment but it's also a very reasonable thing to take offense to all things considered.
