i was calling you a twatty whiner
i'd say each of these opinions are as irrelevant as each other

read the bad wecomics wiki review of it
it explains why it's bad rather neatly without resorting to as much name calling as i have here

it 'explains why it's bad'?
that doesn't sound right to me

i'm pretty sure this comes down to personal opinion
did you form yours then have it enforced by this 'review' or just let the internet tell you what to think?
( manolith hooray for me, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 14:53, archived)

the first one

( Lightguy hail satan, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 14:56, archived)

no it doesn't
the review was written by someone with an IQ less than that of a golden retriever.

The major approach of the review is that it's rubbish because a)the drawing is poor (moot point, the author has never claimed points for drawing skills) and b)it's rubbish because if you understand the maths or the science you suffer from aspergers (which is a rather childish thing to think, really).

It's basically retard bully level "hate what you don't understand"

If you don't get the science, you might not find it funny. That's fine. But only a terminally self-obssessed idiot assumes that because they don't understand it, it might not be funny to those that do.

i understand most of the jokes and i think laughing about statistical data and the fibonacci squence is borderline autism
does that make me a bully?

i'd say that it makes you someone who doesn't really understand autism

( manolith hooray for me, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 15:06, archived)

no, it makes you a bit of an idiot.
how on earth can the subject matter of comedy be defined as autistic?

you don't find it funny. Cool. But that doesn't mean it isn't to others. Even though this is the internet, and this may come as a shock to you, yours isn't the only valid opinion out there.

People find humour in whatever they want. and those that work with that kind of maths or science day in, day out, are likely to find humour in it. It's no more or less "autistic" than finding humour in any work-related subject.

i don't think you understand the meaning of the word "hyperbole"
and i'm sorry, but it is still intensely nerdy to find fourier transforms and poisson distributions funny, no matter what you say
( Lightguy hail satan, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 15:23, archived)

It's subjective.
Some people (myself included) like it. Some people don't.

Spouting sweeping generalisations just makes you look like a bit of a tit.

so say i were to completley unironically state
that this comic was my favourite one in the whole wide world

would you put down the tastes as subjective or would you think i was a creepy furry inflation fetishist?
