Ctrl+Alt+Del used to be hilarious, for some reason I stopped reading the strips.
Penny Arcade is still great.

This is not even needed. Everyone knows CAD is terrible.

I read CAD once and actually had to be exorcised. L.H. Franzibald can kiss my ass.

The thing I find super funny about CAD is that the art has stayed as horrible and amateur as the writing has. I recently went back and read through the first 5 Penny Arcade books, and while the writing was razor sharp from almost day one, the art has evolved so many times.
CAD, even all these years later, still looks like sh*t.
As far as secondary online strips involving games and/or tech-related jokes go, PvP would probably be my second. Despite the fact that Steve Kuntz wrote an entire saga about one of the characters getting stuck under a large stack of papers in a filing room.

So does CAD.
Only once I read a CAD comic and... well, it wasn't a pleasent experience.
Needless to say, I didn't read any more of that crap and took to Penny Aracade like a duckling to water.

What the hell is this? PA is one of the best comics online and CAD is one of the worst. Case closed.

It's nice to see we all agree on something for once.

I have to admit I do read CAD on a regular basis out of some masochistic habit and the latest comic is a fantastic example of how incredibly bad this thing actually is:

I think this particular strip speaks more than a billion words.
...Barkworm, I hate you so much.

The "punchline" in that strip is pure GOLD.

Such wit, such originality, such great art....
The "punchline" in that strip is pure GOLD.
All good punchlines are super long sentences.

You're worthless.
This shouldn't have been an anonymous poll. We should have been able to see all the names so we know who to attack.

I have to admit...I've never even heard of CAD...until now.
Barkworm...I just stared blankly at that strip asking myself "Am I supposed to laugh at this?" maybe it was an inside joke that only CAD readers would understand.
Then I said "Wait...some of my brain cells just died....that's kinda funny...right?"
Please tell me I'm not the first person to react that way.
PA is way better! and I've only read one strip of CAD!

"Am I supposed to laugh at this?" maybe it was an inside joke that only CAD readers would understand.
Its a common knowledge that fans that have seen a movie of their favorite comic/cartoon/book/erotic novel/game/insert random non movie thing...
and if they don't like the movie:
they go right in the interwebs and bitch whine and complaint how bad the movie where and how much better they could make it.
ofc that happens right after the riot in the cinema :D

You're an idiot. She was saying that the comic was not funny, thus assuming there must be something more to it.
Barkworm

The major point is that the exact same joke was originally a part of a Simpsons episode twelve years ago. Back then it was fresh and funny. TWELVE F*CKING YEARS AGO.

know you are but what am I?:lol:

does not change the fact that a lot of people do that after they see a movie made from a comic or other medium.

oh no I feel hurted,
seriously your comment just begged for the "I know you are.." comment.
ofc I am a idiot expaining the point of the punch line to some one who clearly didn't get it, what was I thinking.
ah yes a bus. I can fel the love here, truly amazing

Yeah, we totally didn't get the punchline. We're all as retarded as you are.

Of course Storm Wolf "got" the joke, what's not to get about it?! She (like everyone else) just thought it f*cking blew!
