Just spotted something very odd and strange here that Id not come across before, and Im not talking about the contents of Mandingos trousers,

I was just lurking as per, when I started reading some of the non-donor strips from the front page (it happens now and then when Im really really really really bored, but today I spotted a rather odd little collection in seqence from a variety of authors). It appears that someone out there is using stripcreator for.....

 

LEARNING!

 

if thats not bad enough, They were learning about copyright law, more specifically the stealing of music. Now judging by the quality of the strips the authors Id say were school age, probably around the 11 to 12 years old.

Here's a sample of a few of them

 

/comics/scotty5151/401588/

/comics/hi3/401587/

/comics/vic_countrygirl/401585/

/comics/Halo_Boy42/401584/

/comics/CrossCountryGirl31/401583/

 

Now don't get me wrong, the idea of a teacher using this site is an intiguing prospect, but when was copyright law part of the school curriculum? I demand answers, or at least a sandwich.

Saved this one till last, which I actually enjoyed

/comics/ash2nichole/401586/

 

Is this some weird experiment in alternative teaching? or some evil ploy to spread propaganda to children via the medium of comics? (as if thats never been tried before!). What struck me is why they'd choose this site?, or better yet what they'd make of the cd swap.

 

Anyway the point is I was bored, amuse me.

I'll say it's weird. Why are they learning about dumb stuff like copyright law when they could visit the forums and learn all about the relative merits of Transformers vs. Tom & Jerry cartoons?

I would hope that if it were a teacher writing these, there would be some semblence of correct caplitalization, punctuation, sentence structure, grammar, conversational flow, and other things that people over the age of 14 should understand.

Maybe someone's disgusing themselves as an idiot so the idiots they assume are on the Interent will think it's just one of their own?  More likely it's just a bunch of 10 year old friends who drank the Copyright Law Kool-Aid and found the site together.

You should see what these kids are doing in Science class. They are using a police scanner and Google maps to follow the cops as they converge on Fuzzyman's house.

I thought the comics were hilarious in a "downloading with Hitler" kind of way.

Any teacher who points kids to this site must have somehow missed the half-million assrape jokes.

I love What Happens When You Mess With Illegal for so many reasons. Especially the title.

The narration tells you exactly what's going to happen in the panel, and sure enough, it does.  

These comics are wonderful.  I especially liked the way the bacon and pumpkin one looked like it was going to have a sad ending, but it didn't because the pumpkin agreed to stop illegally downloading.

just like the deparment of education to spell at a 3rd-grade level.

what worries me is that it might be some propaganda all elementary school students are getting. i know exactly two people who won't use limewire and such and both of them are right out of high school. hope they weren't brainwashed

and "What Happens When You Mess With Illegal" is the greatest title ever

Are you kidding me? In West Virginia this activity is called, "11th grade Civil Studies".

I think it's great that this school seems to be teaching copyright law ahead of literacy. Way to get those priorities right!
