    I don’t like Garfield comics.

    What I don’t do, is comment on every Garfield comic that I see posted to whine that I don’t like Garfield. I don’t even feel a hint of desire to do that.

    This is why people who see all the anti-Pizzacake comments on every one of her comics know that it’s not really about the comics. It’s people who are angry at seeing popular comic lady who self-inserts in many of her comics again and need to share that anger. It’s just kinda pathetic.

      It’s solely this because it’s self-aggrandising and there’s no wit. She props up a weekly strawman who is attacking solely her on a position we’re all against in the most banal manner possible and so to defend the position we have to defend her.

      It’d be easy to ignore if the upvote brigade weren’t so persistent, but they are and it raises worrying eyebrows.
