      I can’t really make an argument against that, considering that I stopped reading it years ago. Although I’ll deflect blame and say that was due to my rss reader of choice being killed (google reader), so I stopped reading webcomics in general about that time.

      I can understand why people might not like it. In effect, it’s a sitcom with a gimmick, and there’s tons of those on television (I actively despise all of them). I’ll defend questionable content though because it has a setting and cast of characters that I’ve become invested in. However, I can see what it is, and I understand that it’s not for everyone.

      However, however, CONTEXT, specifically this conversation. People are allegedly hating on Jeph Jacques over on /r/questionablecontent just as hard as people are hating on pzzacake here. And to that I reiterate: fucking why?

      edit: it helps if I do words in the right order.

        Soap opera in comic form is exactly how I thought about the comic after a while. But yes, actively hating it is a bit harsh.

          Just looked at the comic for the first time in years, and I am massively impressed by how his artistic skills have improved. Look at the current page vs page 1. If I didn’t know better, I would not believe that it was done by the same person.
