"I am so very caring and loving"

these are the comics that might as well have been replaced with a photo of Randall looking earnest and saying "won't someone love me? I am such a wonderful person." They're preachy, they're annoying, and they really need to stop. This is what live journal is for, and everyone hates live journal.

322

438

471

Ok clearly this needs to be expanded. Like crazy.

Suggestions?

Also, do you guys think 385 should count?

  1. The problem with this section is that 322 is actually funny, and 471 seems like he was just noticing something interesting, rather than being preachy. However, the way the comic is going these days, you'll probably have lots of them to fill up this list.

  2. I thought that 385 was pretty amusing. I'd say it's borderline-preachy... kind of like, hey, guys and girls can be equally bad at math! /preach

    But also it's one of those oh-hey-I-found-a-stereotype-let's-point-it-out.. wait. That's essentially the same thing.

    What I'm trying to say is, I don't feel that it's preachy, but I can't think of anything that makes it not preachy. My comment is useless.

  3. I think 438 is better than all the others. It's not exactly funny, sure, but I think its point is highly relevant and not quite as in-your-face as the other two you mentioned.

  6. I definitely think 385 should count. Sure, it's funny and doesn't seem to be trying for preachiness, but it's whole point is that it's an affront against sexism. it seems like a classic "oh, I understand what women go through" comic. I think he's done a few of those, actually. Anyway, yes it should count.

  7. maybe. To be honest I stopped really caring about this list, so I'm not going to go through the usual mental debate over whether to add that.
