Do you know why? Because every time someone posts a link to a strip, I click on it. Then I click on the 'next' arrow. And again. And again. O&M is far too addictive...<br><br>Actually, I'd do it even without Define "Cynical", so it's fairer to say that I hate O&M. Even though I love it. There's only one thing to say in such a situation...<br><br>"My precioussssssssss"

Do you think it would be easier for you if we simply linked to the image of the comic itself so there'd be no next arrow to click?

If you've done things right, people won't be sure if you've done anything at all.

Well, you could do that, but then I'd be forced to read the entire archives looking for it. That would be bad. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ns/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Why don't you do what I'm doing.<br>Download all those years, read 'em all and then you won't click the next button so much.

That would take up a lot of disk space, of which I, for one, have ALL TOO LITTLE. <!--emo&<_<--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ns/dry.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='dry.gif' /><!--endemo--><br>I <i>love </i> when I get caught up in the reading of strips I've already read several times...always gets me in such a great mood! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It's under a hundred megs.. that isn't that much, even for computers older than the comic strip.. plus, if your computer can burn stuff onto CD-RW, you will have no problem cramming the entire archive on a CD (even the tiny 3-inch ones). The only real difficulty I can think of is having enough time set aside to do the downloading.<br><br>My favorite thing about it that when they're saved locally, they also load faster. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> No more waiting for a connection to read a series!
