stupid rookie wrote: Whoa! There's two questions here. Shitty Web Comics is great because if you listen to what they are saying over there, you will improve at the craft at writing. I have already taken more good advice from that site in two months than everywhere else combined. If it was just a site to make you a better writer it would be terrific, but it also holds a magnifying glass to some of the worst people on the web. Take the latest drama. Some guy said that they're writing Lois Lane as if she had a dick now. This is a funny point and tells me everything I need to know about the current state of Superman books. Losers on tumblr lost their mind about this. It's hilarious. Whaddaya mean pal, women have dicks all the time! If I name the first 10 women that come to mind, they all have a cock, some of them two. The guy who said the thing about Lois put together some groveling apology and people were still telling him to kill himself. This is great. We can all laugh and be delighted of this. And SWC finds it and reports back. As for Wittgenstein, every time he posts he makes fun of icycalm. Sure, he becomes unspeakably mad pretty quickly. How is that not great? Things are more interesting with him around. set his kickstarter books on fire if I already thought all those comics and people were shit? I had never heard of this John Campbell before. You know it's killing him that he was named John Campbell, by the way, and not Tidor X. Lore or something Japanese. Ha! Ha ha! My time isn't infinite, telling me why I should hate PA or Kate Leth isn't that useful when this website gathers discerning enough users to tell me about good content I might actually like. There's almost nothing criticized here I can't readily tell is bad, not to mention understand why without a textwall + exegesis. Here is a list of all the good shit the Cables have mentioned in the world of comics: Hipster Hitler, and I knew about it before they mentioned it because they're mainly here to shoot fish in barrels. VALUE. Here's the last serious thing I'll ever say on Caltrops. God help me. The point of Caltrops, in my mind, is not just linking to awful things. Every site does that. The "magic" of Caltrops is that there is a group of people that point out terrible, awful content and then fight with each other about it. It's a group of people -- all of whom are utterly free to leave at any time -- that say the most hurtful things imaginable to each other because someone else, a third party, made a terrible web comic or movie or book or awful video game. Everyone is angrier for having visited, but none of us can seem to stop coming. The shitty content leads to a bunch of lunatics yelling at each other, because the creators of that content would never come here directly. I love this site, and I love you all because of that. It's the funniest thing in the world to me. There is no logical reason for anyone to visit this site, but we do it all the time. We're doing it now. the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey! |
