Not Funny So Much as Hateful

In my current addled state, I logged on today with the intention of finding comic strips to lightly lambaste. Imagine my surprise when I found out I had already chosen some last night or something. There's only three of them, which bothers me, but then again, three is better than nothing.

Maintaining, 7/17/09

I can't forget that stupid term, and you know what, Maintaining? I looked it up on Wikipedia, and it says that it's a pejorative term. So, really, you shouldn't be flinging it around like this. As for Caucafrican, well, that's just a stupid made-up term. Stupid comic strip.

Frog Applause, 7/17/09

Now we revisit the theme of canine abuse. I really have nothing to say about this strip, it just ticks me off that Frog Applause thinks it can do something like this...

Wait, I just looked at the URL they provided. I guess... I guess they're not trying to be funny but raise awareness? If that's the case, then good job, Frog Applause. I could just delete all this but these posts tend to look better if they're bulky.

The Brilliant Mind of Edison Lee, 7/17/09

I really hate this comic strip, and I hate even more that it's been around for a thousand strips. It's a typical boy genius thing, except where "Dexter's Laboratory" just had the titular boy genius running around doing science, this strip also has him running around being political. Now, I get that some strips just exist to be political, like Prickly City and Mallard Fillmore, but you know what? I hate those strips too. Edison Lee, though, wastes the whole boy genius premise in favor of making jokes about the president and taxes and stuff like that. So, anyway, 1000 strips is far too long for this atrocity to roam the comics pages. I hope it doesn't last another hundred, let alone another thousand.
