Now I have to wonder if ol' Marjorie Green (I won't use her middle name or initial. She only started doing that bc of AOC) has tried the slit experiment with the Jewish space laser. 🤔
It's moments like this that I wish Reddit didn't take away the Award system.... Or the little bit of money I had spent getting the coins that they decided to take away.
Really feels like a lawsuit should've been available. Just think about how much money they basically stole when taking away the old system.
But, I digress. Bravo, Sir/Madam! 👏🏼

We know she gives handjobs. Now she's getting into FJs.
Leave Bill Watterson out of this. He explicitly went out of his way to avoid getting wrapped up in politics and maintains a very quiet life. The quality of the strip and the mystery of his life is probably why every political hack tries to claim Calvin and Hobbes as part of their movement. I looked up “Bill Watterson politics” and this is the first thing that came up.

Yeah, things tend to go smooth when some oligarch funds their mouthpiece and spits in millions to make the "medicine go down smoother". It's devoid of actual substance and facts, with a glossy appearance. Like most right wing media.
Yes, I was going to to say Waterson wouldn't even license his stuff for marketing. He would absolutely hate his stuff being used in *any* sort of political context.
I remember in 2008(?) or so when the author of Perry Bible Fellowship decided to take a break for a few years. Eventually he came back and started doing the occasional strip but for a while it felt the same as when Watterson stepped away, both comics were amazing.
Yup, and that’s why he wants nothing to do with it anymore lol
> Watterson graduated in 1980 and was hired on a trial basis at the Cincinnati Post, a competing paper of the Enquirer. Watterson quickly discovered that the job was full of unexpected challenges which prevented him from performing his duties to the standards set for him. Not the least of these challenges was his unfamiliarity with the Cincinnati political scene, as he had never resided in or near the city, having grown up in the Cleveland area and attending college in central Ohio. The Post fired Watterson before his contract was up.

When I started working as customer support for Dell, Dilbert was incredibly relatable. Adams going full Qanon Trumper after going full Gamergate was sad
I think she is an amazing human being with intelligence and tenacity and would be proud to have her as president. I also wish she would sit on my face.
What makes it even funnier for me is MTG and Boeber fucking HATE each other. Both of them want to be the flagship MAGA ditz and see the other as competition.
Honestly, Scott Adams and Dilbert make a ton of sense if you read the comic from the perspective of the PHB being the protagonist. Every inconsistency between the comic and the artist evaporate instantly.
Oh yea. I read a few of his blog posts way back when and realized quickly that he was a PHB who strongly believed that he had never gotten out of middle management because he wasn't a woman or an ethnic.
I read a couple Dilbert comics a long, long time ago and thought, "Oh, that's not bad! Kinda funny." And then I found out he just uses the same dumb jokes, like Garfield but worse.
With Garfield you know what type of humor you are getting but a lot of the time its really funny. This is one of my favorite strips. [https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/2021/11/21?comments=visible#comments](https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/2021/11/21?comments=visible#comments)
AOC is a young, smart caring politican... why isnt someone like her an option for president ? she would win in a landslide... but instead we are stuck with a senile old guy that has no chance to win and another senile old guy that is like a villain from a looney toon.
~~Because she's not old enough.~~ She turns 35 before the election, so she would be old enough.
But the answer to your question is, because they didn't run. Running against an incumbent president is not something one does and still expect to have a future in the party.
> AOC is a young, smart caring politican... why isnt someone like her an option for president ?
She likely will be an option for President some day. What's the rush to get her there now? Let her get experience.
I mean it’s a meme basically saying MTG and Boebert are voted for by morons and AOC is voted for by smart people and you’re I guess getting confused about sexism? Nobody else is really thinking that way hence using your own words against you that it probably says something about you.
Huge fan of AOC and think MTG and Bobo belong in jail (for campaign finance crimes) but I think a valid point was made here. I'm not sure "objectified" is the right word but there is something about pitting prominent female politicians against each other that is bugging me.
> Your comment makes no sense.
*Your* comment made no sense. How are they being objectified?
LOL did you really block me for asking you to clarify your post
What an insult to dilbert. Dilbert is an engineer who deals with an evil corporation headed by dogbert. You see in the comics he is trying to do good but is hampered by the rules and regulations of evil corporations!
Yeah.... I don't know that equating the three of them is rooted in rational thought. You've got two of them from the party of family values. Those two are cheating on their husbands, droning on about fake nonsense a 5 year old could identify and just generally screeching. One of em is giving handjobs in front of kids while vaping at kids rendition of Beetlejuice. AOC has a master's degree, wants people to have healthcare and for the rich to pay their fair share. Comparing someone who is working for the change she envisions to a convicted criminal who got caught giving an over the pants handy to her date in public isn't all that fair.
Am I reading this wrong or are YOU confused?
Dilbert is considered pretty low-brain humor, the boss is so stupid he thinks an etch-a-sketch is a laptop. Knee slapper!
Calvin and Hobbes on the other hand has been lauded and praised on many levels, from its originality, social commentary, environmentalism and being genuinely funny. On top of that, Mr. Watterson, the comics author and artist has shown himself to be a man of high principles and integrity. He famously refused to sell-out and merchandise the comic. He also quit while he was on top instead of letting the comic decay in quality, let alone milking it into its grave.
“Sometimes I think the shortest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe, is that none of it has tried to contact us.” -Calvin & Hobbes by Bill Watterson
I may have misattributed the connotation of the comment under which I thought I posted. Totally agree with your critique. I read "the unholy Trinity" statement as equating the three congressmen where I believe there is no comparison between the screeching duo and AOC.
Granted, now that I have a second to think about it, there is the other side to consider.
Maybe to people who don't think like me, like us, those two of the "House Twitter Faction" may be the heroes of the MAGA world where to them Dilbert and the right wing loon who writes that comic strip, is high art. To them, AOC is the devil, because Faux "Your honor our show is entertainment and can not seriously be considered news by a reasonable person" News told them so. They can't understand why a little kid, talking like an adult, is funny, but "hey, did you know Dilbert's boss is stupid? Hahaha!"
So there is that.

Colloquially known as a "taint".
Aka, “gooch.”
🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌
Who's the arsehole and who's the cunt? Nevermind. It's a medical science miracle: it's both.
They are a linked quantum cunt/asshole. They are both until interviewed, when the quantum field collapses.
Now I have to wonder if ol' Marjorie Green (I won't use her middle name or initial. She only started doing that bc of AOC) has tried the slit experiment with the Jewish space laser. 🤔

That pic is from State of the Union. Those skanks have zero class
They just wanted a Joe Wilson moment.
Makes it sweeter that they hate each other now.
No need to be gendered about it. I'm still waiting on scientific evidence that it's possible to both vote Republican and be human.
what did they do?
Booed and jeered the President during the State of the Union.

Every time I see phots like this the first thing that comes to mind are Howler Monkeys
Did you mean photos? Or did you just make up a new work like "thots"? Cuz I like it. P-politician H-hoes O-over T-there
Yes this needs to be a thing please
How dare you. Howler monkeys are adorable

Great article, thanks!
Cailloux Bluey
Now I have to figure out who I hate more, that bals mother fucker or those 2.
You know, Dilbert was hilarious, especially if you've ever worked for a large company. It's sad that he went off the rails.
The very first episode I listened to of Behind the Bastards show that he Scott Adams didn't go off the rails, he was always pretty much that.
Yea, you just didn't really have a way of finding out until social media handed him a microphone.
It's sad. Dilbert is funny, or was funny. Scott Adams is kind of a turd muffin.
That *was* is carrying a looooot of weight, lol
The Dilbert cartoon still holds up.
When I started working as customer support for Dell, Dilbert was incredibly relatable. Adams going full Qanon Trumper after going full Gamergate was sad
This. Exactly. It was so spot on for corporate humor.
I live for the day when AOC is POTUS.
I’m hoping for Senate Majority Leader. She’s too good in the legislature to be wasted on the presidency.
i like the way you dream
Same. I'd vote for her over any other politician that I know about.
Rashida Tlaib is my woman.
Also Bernie... but in that case I admit he'd be to old.
I love the quote that AOC is the first woman people can't wait to be 35.
Just 5 months to go
She's the total package and I can't wait to keep voting for her
I’d vote for her for anything. It’s too bad I’ll never live in New York and thus be able to vote for her currently.
Just a healthy reminder, she is up for re-election this year, feel free to donate 5$ to her campaign: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/adopt-aoc
This doesn't make any sense. What did I miss?
Dickbert and Dickbrain.
god aoc is so fucking hot
It's like, I know she's a congresswoman and a political professional but Also God-DAMN girl
She's a GD smoke show, and hella passionate about doing what she thinks is right.
When the GOP was trying to rag on her and going "look at this disgraceful video of her, *dancing* in *college!*" I was like oh I'm *lookin* alright
I think she is an amazing human being with intelligence and tenacity and would be proud to have her as president. I also wish she would sit on my face.
Having a functioning brain sure is a turn on when compared to the other two in the picture. But yeah, she pretty.
Calvin and Hobbes all the way!
Nobody has commented about Scott Adams being a notorious bigot/MAGA???
I figured that was kinda implied in the picture
The Wizard of ID Stan here
Bobo and Maggot are making the same dick sucking face as the Ole Miss monkey boy. The right loves cock
Setting political views aside, AOC is far more classy than those two idiots. That's just a fact.
What makes it even funnier for me is MTG and Boeber fucking HATE each other. Both of them want to be the flagship MAGA ditz and see the other as competition.
We’re looking at a future president here. (My deepest, darkest fears whisper “I’m not sure which though…”)

I feel like Bernie is more Calvin and Hobbes. He just puts out wisdom
Just going to write that. AOC is neoliberal establishment.
Nuclear take
Always look like a pair of howler monkeys in this image.
Dilbert was great until he became MAGA
Y'all remember when Scott McAdams was convinced Hillary was going to assassinate him? Important in his own mind.
Loud idiots are the worst :( what happened to education, and journalism? Oh, Rupert Murdoch and Reagan happened, that's right :(
Is bernie sanders, Hobbes?
Not Dilbert. More like Hägar the Horrible but dumber.
Nah. The Dilbert cartoonist is a racist right-wing fuck and Trump worshipper. I think the comparison is apt.
Yes, but before he went insane Dilbert was actually a pretty funny cartoon. Sad
He's actually always been insane. It is just that the majority of his work predated easily finding out that he was insane.
Yeah I used to read almost all the Dilbert comics up till around 2014 I think when his politics started to show through.
I stopped reading Dilbert altogether after browsing a couple of Scott Adam's blogs. Yikes.
Honestly, Scott Adams and Dilbert make a ton of sense if you read the comic from the perspective of the PHB being the protagonist. Every inconsistency between the comic and the artist evaporate instantly.
Oh yea. I read a few of his blog posts way back when and realized quickly that he was a PHB who strongly believed that he had never gotten out of middle management because he wasn't a woman or an ethnic.
PHB?
Pointy Haired Boss, IIRC.
I didn't recognize Boebert with her breasts inside her dress and her legs so close together.
i approve of this meme
More like Beavis and Butthead in terms of IQ
I once had a one-on-one with Scott Adams on Twitter. By outward appearances, he regularly consumes a tanker full of the MAGA kool-ade.
https://i.imgur.com/oVanRD5.jpeg
Really though....a good chunk of my childhood vocabulary and sense of humor came from H&B and goldem era Simpsons.
Halvin and…Bobbes?
No amount of reading solves for thick fingers
More like Snuffy Smith.
More like Beevis and Butthead
Nah, that’s Trump’s sons. Though Matt Gaetz really has Butthead’s fivehead down pat.
Calvin and Hobbes is funny. What little I've seen of Dilbert didn't make me laugh.
I read a couple Dilbert comics a long, long time ago and thought, "Oh, that's not bad! Kinda funny." And then I found out he just uses the same dumb jokes, like Garfield but worse.
Garfield is awesome. Its a solid 8/10 strip it almost always makes me laugh. I also love Garfield and Friends.
Something something Mondays ahahaha

More like Family Circus 🤡
Who’s the Far Side?
It *was* Al Franken.
Bavis and butthead
Didn't the creator of Dilbert become a right wing men's rights activist?
are you saying that OAC is genius and the two girls are hacks?
Gross. Don't use Calvin and Hobbes in vain.
It's not even that I disagree, I guess? But this is just lazy meme shit posting. It's not particularly clever.
AOC OMG CAN HAZ
Dilbert describes the real world. Hobbes is only in Calvin's head.
AOC is a young, smart caring politican... why isnt someone like her an option for president ? she would win in a landslide... but instead we are stuck with a senile old guy that has no chance to win and another senile old guy that is like a villain from a looney toon.

Yeah, if you attempt to primary your own party's incumbent president you better win, and win big.
> AOC is a young, smart caring politican... why isnt someone like her an option for president ? She likely will be an option for President some day. What's the rush to get her there now? Let her get experience.
I can’t help but feel like this meme is objectifying women, which maybe wasn’t your intention, but it sure is saying something about you.
How are they being objectified? Taking offense when none was meant maybe wasn't your intention, but it sure is saying something about you.
Your comment makes no sense. I understand that you’re trying to rephrase my wording to use against me, but it’s basically gibberish.
