I have always been rather fond of reading the comics. It's a nice way to spend a few minutes and maybe even chuckle a little. As I have grown older I have found that I am more selective of the comics I read. Cathy always takes too long to read and I can't relate to it anyway. The same goes for For Better or Worse. People have protested some of the negative depictions in it but I have never been offended by Snuffy Smith - I guess I am not concerned with the plight of hillbillies. And Garfield is not funny - every cat I know would eat lasagna if given the opportunity.
I read all the single-panel comics. You know Ziggy, Marmaduke, Herman, etc. Thankfully they don't often take long to glance over.
Sometimes you have to decide if you are a B.C. kind of person...or...
you are more like the Wizard of Id.
I miss The Far Side. I don't even know why this is funny - it just is.
Calvin and Hobbes was awesome too, but I can't figure out why everyone thinks Calvin should be peeing on car logos. Maybe it's a 'Snuffy Smith' kind of thing.
