The New Yorker has the worst goddamn cartoons
I honestly get more enjoyment out of Heathcliff
that doesn't make any sense, use gangsters and cops or something
christ what an asshole
>>83301981
It takes like a second to get
I tried my hand at making New Yorker style comics a couple of times.
(1/2)
>>83302361
(2/2)
>>83302410
I don't...I don't get it. Repunzel is getting her hair cut?
>>83302410
I would caption this one "Just a little off the top"
>>83302544
"And that's when I got naaauuughtyyy"
>>83301981
how is a horse not carbon neutral
>>83302361
thats pretty good
>>83302692
>>83302844
Here name was Martha.
>>83302248
Almost funny.
>>83302410
Is the barber a vampire? He isn't reflected in the mirror. Is that the joke? Barbers used to bleed customer in medieval times for medical purposes, to cure their sicknesses or curses, and Rapunzel is a medieval fairy tale princess, so the Barber is a vampire that wants to bleed Rapunzel, but she just wants a goddamn haircut?
That's... not a good joke.
>>83302692
Horses fart, releasing greenhouse gases, much like cows and every other animal.
>>83302844
>>83303699
i know its hard to look at, but the barber is clearly reflected in the mirror behind rapunzel.
>>83303785
Ah.
Then what's the joke? WHAT'S THE JOKE???
>>83303801
the fact that someone gets paid to make those strips.
>>83303821
Ah, meta-humor eh?
>posting straub on /co/
love you
>the onion has the best political cartoon strip
everyone else has fucked up
>>83304431
straub hijack!
>>83301981
I recall someone making the valid point that you could recaption every New Yorker cartoon with
"Christ, what an asshole."
and it would be just as funny as the original caption.
>>83302692
A horse is a carbon based life form.
>>83304541
christ, this is pretty good
did straub get funnier as time went on or did he just maintain the same quality of humor and everyone else gradually stopped being funny so he became more appealing by contrast?
>>83302711
Thanks. I also like to satirize how so many slice of life comics are about a character whose quirk is that they're depressed.
Also because I can't think of any other New Yorker style comics.
>>83304623
Hey, if you wanna win a marathon the most important part is the pace
>>83304623
He was parodying webcomics 16 years ago. I think he's always been pretty sharp but he's definitely refined his style since he started.
The shit he was doing on camera was so dry and straight faced it was bordering on britishI loved it.Shame that the only good thing about the chainsawsuit youtube channel he currently has isMovies with Mikey
>tfw I just realised starslip was a decade ago
fuck me time just seems to accelerate
>>83302751
But vegetarians can drink lemonade
I made a few of these for a Heathcliff thread a while back.
>>83302149
This is legit funny though.
>>83305104
I love his part of each of his podcasts. He's got a good voice and is generally understated. Can never stand the people he chooses as his cohosts, though
>>83301981
But dident they have to cut down trees to make those horses.
Still I got a decent chuckle you just have shit taste
>>83305245
There vegetarians there not very smart
>>83306065
that sounds like a gad damn awesome cake
does it shot out light when you cut it or eat it?
>>83301981
christ, what an asshole
My dad loves the New Yorker. Always has one handy. Ever since I was a kid, I would look in to see the comics and be utterly disappointed by how bad they were.
I would say, "Papa..." and he would look down at me with caring, warm eyes, his lips pulled into a smirk along finely crafted pipe, ready to impart wisdom.
"Yes, my boy?" he'd reply.
"These comics...are not very funny," I'd sheepishly admit, knowing full well he may find me a fool for thinking such. What a dullard I must be to not understand these bold and brash comics.
But he wouldn't yell, he would chortle with amusement, he would just smile, take in a long breath and release the smoke through his nostrils, like a large, wise dragon, and say, "You just don't get them," he'd say. "They're for grown-ups.
Well, I'm grown up now, and these comics are shit and I'm pretty sure he was smoking crack.This dumb fucking thing, for example, is on my parents' fridge and I think they only like it because it has dogs.It's not even relatable, our dogs have never chewed on their shoes.
>>83310294
This almost feels like a pasta.
>>83302361
nice
>>83302361
These are really cool, let me try one.
I think you guys are gonna get a kick outta this one.
>>83301981
I get more enjoyment from webcomics. Even xKCD
>>83311406
chortle is the new euphoricalso works as a caption
>>83312114
>Works as a New Yorker caption
>>83302248
Too real to be funny.
>>83312507
There's some kind of rule that any snide comment made about a New Yorker cartoon also serves as a caption for a New Yorker cartoon
>>83310294
WHERE'S THE FUCKING JOKE?
They're just regular shoes, why would they taste funny to the dogs? At least make them clown shoes, it's a corny joke but at least it actually is a joke.
>>83311953
You see, the joke is that it is a talking pig.
I love New Yorker cartoons.
>>83302227
>>83302176
>>83302161
>>83302149
Heh, these are actually really good.

WHERE IS THE ARROW TO HIS FIRST STRIP, FOR CHRIST SAKE!
http://chainsawsuit.com/
The cartoon for this week's caption contest.
>>83301981
No meat touching
>>83314508
He's bad news.
>>83314634
okay, I don't know how low on the douche level it would bring us, but how about, every week as much of us as possible send a caption for the Caption contest, and all of us will always send "He's bad news".
>>83314508
>"When are you going to shave that fucking awful moustache?"
>>83301981
that's only because you don't "get" the new yorker
>>83314508
>It looked more practical on the kickstarter page.
>>83314508
"They didn't sound so big when I ordered from the UK website."
>>83314508
"Please stop objectifying me with your male gaze."
>>83314420
No, but fucking seriously, what is the link for the first strip?
>>83314508
"Why, yes, I am from Georgia. What gave it away?"
>>83314508
"Hail Hydra!"
>>83314508
>Sure it seems overkill in suburbia, but one day I might decide to take it off road
>>83314634
>>83315128
Very nice
>>83315128
New Yorker-est caption.
>>83301981
>>83314508
>We decided to get him started on overcompensating early.The joke is that the kid has a tiny dick.
>>83316148
It'd be better if the sign read "please, no meat touching"
>>83314420

Thanks a lot for the direct link, but how was I supposed to find it on the front page? It doesn't even have an ordered archive page.
>>83319918
You can't. You have to go to Google and type "chainsawsuit first comic"
>>83320479
This site is awfully designed. My computer might be hold, but it still shouldn't make flash crash every five minutes.
>>83306065
ventablack cake?
>>83311953
How 'bout if it was something like " I can't find my receipt my place's a stye."
Wow, >>83311953 is so much better looking than the actual one (pic related)
>>83302211
wtf
>>83302361
old joke, but i like it
>>83302410
SOMEONE EXPLAIN PLEASE

He posted it without the caption.
And yes, I know, the caption doesn't make it any better. Arguably it makes it worse.
>>83302149
This is funny on two levels
>>83325281
I think it's kinda funny.
>>83302211
Someone's pretty salty that he didn't get a job.
>>83314508
>And it was still five bucks.
Bleh, I suck at this.
>>83314508"Don't order the ham."
