So that's something.<br /><br />Also I'm agreeing with Pro Mole, the comic would work a lot better if "What Pandora Plays" in the circle was substituted with "Music you like." Then the text "Deeply Embarrassing Music" could be in the second circle as well, and it wouldn't look as awkward with there being text in one circle but not the other. Why did he do that?<br /><br />But like I said, I found the alt text funnier than the comic itself, so whatever.Natenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-74259247525467039332009-11-27T12:18:49.494-08:002009-11-27T12:18:49.494-08:00It's almost the end of the afternoon, and Carl...It's almost the end of the afternoon, and Carl has still not posted... I think he needs some time out and Aloria should take his place for a while. There, Aloria, I requested you! =D<br /><br />Now, on 668... I think there's a serious problem with the Venn diagram... if "what Pandora plays" is a subset of "music you like", then it should have a limit. But, then again, it's not, because that'd be saying Pandora only plays what you like, and less. This couls be easily solved by substituting "Music you like" with "What Pandora Plays".<br /><br />Also, I didn't know what Pandora was, so I had to look up on Wikipedia. The joke itself is a bit funny, but Fernie's right: 400, minus sex. That's a good point...<br /><br />Still, sucky. I see no effort at all in this comic.

I just wonder if Randall forgets about the jokes he has already done, or if he does it on purpose; face it, that joke is not really THAT vast and filled with details to justify several variations. Just one is sufficient. Today's strip, compared to 400, is horribly bland and weak, but at least it doesn't have gratuitous sex, so I guess it's a tie.Fernie Cantohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01753446688169468457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-79898270184659132552009-11-27T10:28:43.617-08:002009-11-27T10:28:43.617-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Fernie Cantohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01753446688169468457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-61203966380807929882009-11-27T10:24:13.854-08:002009-11-27T10:24:13.854-08:00Yup: not only short, but ALSO completely devoid of...Yup: not only short, but ALSO completely devoid of irony.Fernie Cantohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01753446688169468457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-41579835845542327082009-11-27T09:10:58.482-08:002009-11-27T09:10:58.482-08:00@Fernie Canto

Yeah, now excuse me while I educate all you illiterate FOOLS on the complex economical situation of Malasia.<br /><br />At least the joke is good, and I think the format works quite well. But I have a sort of radical opinion that, if you're embarrassed of the music you listen to, you should either stop listening to it or stop feeling embarrassed -- because that basically means you're unable to stand by your feelings and justify them, no? But then again, I've never been through that: I have a Charlie & Lola desktop on my work computer, I wrote an entire album with songs inspired by cartoon characters, and I love the songs from The Backyardigans and I'm NOT EMBARRASSED AT ALL. If anything, I'm sort of snobbish about it.<br /><br />"You mean what? You wouldn't listen to songs by a composer as awesome and respected as Evan Lurie, just because they're made for a cartoon? What are you, some uneducated troglodyte?"<br /><br />I'm also very selfless and don't like attracting too much attention to myself, really.Fernie Cantohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01753446688169468457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-84998613295365614412009-11-27T01:43:38.719-08:002009-11-27T01:43:38.719-08:00Yes because when it's US only it means people ...Yes because when it's US only it means people outside the US won't know what it is.
