Fighting takes too much energy. It was never a witty comic, but it would resonate with you when you were in the office job that had a nepo boss making random decisions. The life of the comic was just the same joke said in a thousand different ways though, which is why we can now look at it and mentally shrug.
But when it first came out, it fit right in with Dave Barry and Milton, etc. If you were working just to get a paycheck, you could relate. The overuse of sarcasm could be overlooked bc it only happened once a week.
It never grew or evolved with the times, mirroring Adams.
uh okay i guess. since you staked out my position though, i’m gonna have to pick something ridiculous like scott adams character the pointy eared boss was inspired by an interaction that adams had with a mirror while on mescaline
Dilbert was never funny anyway. Fight me about it.

That’s it, we’re gonna fight now
It did add a bald CEO in later years, but that’s about it.
Have my up vote. Never cared for it one bit.

The most boring comic in the Sunday paper.
I didn’t know we were talking about Family Circus or Nancy.
