P.S. Your 'All that will be left' one is also genius.

Urm... are you SURE he's a genius?

I'm not arguing against minimalism, I'm just saying that it is not evidence of genius when used to the exclusion of everything else.

I think I get Samir. He's invented "blank humor." Just as blank verse is poetry that doesn't rhyme, blank humor is wit in form only-- humor without jokes. Like this limerick I just made up:

There once was a yuppie named Trey
Who commuted to work on the Beltway
He drove home every night
And drank some Bud Lite
And did it again the next day

Damn it.

I just Googled the phrase "blank humor" and found it in a Psychedelic Furs song. "No jokes in blank humor/No lines in blank verse," it said. I was all set to patent that. Why do these stupid art fags always think of the same jokes I do?

Hey, it's the same album that has "Love My Way." Cool!

Has anyone but me noticed that Gabe's character looks amazingly like a white Shaquille O'Neill?

i think samir has stolen or lifted elements or chunks of his humour in his strips

i swear ive seen them done nearly before

I dunno... I think Samir thought "moh" wasn't very funny either. Probably more frustrating and obtuse than anything else.

I actually kinda like some of his strips.

I liked some of them, too. I just didn't think they were evidence of genius.

Bullshit.
Damn it, Bunner - stop mincing words. We will never get what you are trying to tell us if you keep beating around the bush.
