http://www.thewebcomiclist.com/profile. ... onsidering this is a webcomic that isn't about anime and video games, I'm impressed. Webcomics = computers = nerds = anime and video games. O&M is neither. So I'm surprised it's at least in the top 200.

Hmmm...that is most odd indeed. Maybe people find that non-computer/video game humour refreshing.

Dang, that is one extensive list. Unfortunately, I think it's crud. They even fail to distinguish certain syndicated newspaper cartoons like "Foxtrot," which IMO are no more webcomics than "Garfield."<br><br>I doubt that DCS would hold "8-Bit Theater" in such high opinion. Lazy artistry, don't you know.

I'm suprised, well, amazed, that Flinthoof's "Roomies" isn't on there.

Well, some of Foxtrot is on the web, so it is a webcomic to some extent. And it's also sometimes about the web, too.<br><br>And I happen to like Penny Arcade. I'm a gamer.

Well, some of Ozy and Millies comics are like the Family Circus. Like the blue string one? That one made me vomit.

Literally? That shouldn't be possible.... Ever consider it might have been a stomach flu? <!--emo&;)--><img src='

It sounds like you suffer from "Diminished Cuteness Coping Ability" or the ability to cope with overly-cute things. The saccharine sweetness of some things will cause naseau in those with the ailment... Truly truly sad. Man can put a person on the moon but they can't cure DCCA.
