    It has nothing to do with the time it takes to read them all. I just mean I have mixed feelings about whether to "like" the entire post, when I don't necessarily "like" every single cartoon in it. Sometimes I hate some of them with a passion. For example, sometimes there are Day By Days in there, and there's no "Fuck You, Day By Day" button available. Of course, I could re-post just the specific cartoons I like and say "I really like this one", but I'm lazy.

    But that time it wasn't an issue, because every single one of those was pure gold.

    Oh I see! I get it thank you.

    That's a very narrow definition of the "like" button. I see it as more of a "good post" button. Even something I disagree with, put succinctly or with humor and skill, I can "like" because they did a good job

    Instead of "the oh god why does this burn lightly moderated politics forum", how about "the fuck you daaaay by daaaay lightly moderated politics forum".

    I also love it, but unless I'm missing the subtlety, I don't think it's terribly subtle.

    Anyway, it's the general gist of why I refuse to join the NRA.

    What a...what about Benghazi? It's all well and good to scream "Benghazi!! B-E-N-GHAZIIIIIIIII!" Day and night 'til your lungs collapse but what the follow up?
    "BENGHAZI!!"
    "What about it?"
    "...PEOPLE DIED!"
    "And...?"
    "...BENGHAZI!!!"

    A: I'm so sick of World Weary Santa I could scream
    B: Santa gives out free toys every Christmas just for being good. I'm not sure he'd agree with your "OMG Socialism BAD" rhetoric. He's Santa, he loves you, he loves everyone equally and rewards the good ones with material goods. (oh wait I said that better last time: ("All I'm saying is if there WAS an all knowing and powerful magical man who rewards good children with presents one day a year he'd agree with my homophobic, xenophobic, racist world view!"))

    The big fat dumb GOP elephant in a Benghazi t-shirt and a glazed over look on his face says nothing of value, while the serious people in the room give it the lack of attention it deserves, preferring even to talk about nothing rather than acknowledge the retard. A good cartoon.

    What? WHAT??? Obama stole the Bush tax cuts from the people and is now rushing to give them back over Financial Hieronymus Cliffordson?
    I'm proud that you finally figured out that calling Obama Santa Claus wasn't working but come on.

    This one exasperates the hell out of me. When people in North Korea starve, it's the evil government; when people in the US don't get enough food, it's their inherent laziness. All 10 million of them.

    I've noticed lately when I am driving or something and say "fuck you" to someone I follow it with "DAY BY DAAAAAAAAAY". Damn hilarious.

    I love how pissed off Marley is there. That is basically my inner level of rage when I see Day by Day.

    1) What is wrong with that woman's mouth, it's like she's talking out of the side of it like some sort of old timey mobster.

    2) Dude's arm hair skeeves me out for some reason.

    3) Don't think I didn't notice that nipple, Day by Day, it is gratuitous and I do not appreciate it. Also it's sort of not in the right place, but it's not like anatomy is your strong suit to begin with.

    4) I hope Richard King goes by Dick, because then I could hate Dick King even more than I hate Richard King for sponsoring this comic.

    5) Progressives hate the crazies, evidently.

    6) Progressives also have the insane idea that guns and schools should probably not mix.

    7) Progressives also hate children, why else would they somehow provide Lanza with a "target-rich enviroment" by educating them in schools like some sort of Communist utopia.

    8) That sheer nighty is seriously the ugliest color possible.

    9) Walls of text are generally bad in two panel comics.

    10) Too much red, because I say so.



    PS: I like that even Muiry Sue there can't fucking believe the bullshit coming out of his waifu's mouth.

    "Progressives defeated mental health protection laws just before the Newtown shootings."

    Citation needed, DAY BY DAY.


    PS -- He's so fricking lazy that he painted the sheets the exact same shade as wifey's hair. One less click, amirite, DAY BY DAY?

    Hardly the worst anatomical offense in the panel. I mean, is he shaving the rest of his arm and only cultivating that patch for political reasons?

    It's an edge arm tatoo to go with the other woman's random shoulder thing!

    Count me in with the "I cannot unsee that comically misplaced nipple" crew. Damnit Sjofn I didn't even notice he bothered making her outfit sheer!
