Safely



I never start out with the intention of pissing people off, but I’m often asked (when a particular artwork of mine is causing a stir online) why I even bother to post at all if it’s going to annoy people. The mindset being “if it’s going to upset someone, don’t do it.”

While that’s noble and all, it’s sort of a defeatist attitude and it’s technically impossible because of how multifaceted humans are. As I’ve come to discover, you can’t please everyone and haters gotta hate.

The single easiest way to get popular: Publicity from controversy

Trolls! Here is the truth!

I like this. Someone point the trolls towards this comic.

I like to piss people off with my drawings sometimes. It is INCREDIBLY enteratining.

this comic reminds me of garfield

Ha! One of the reasons I got into reading your comic and looked for them was because of your controversial and heated subject comics! A lot of the time I was severely irritated by the subject matter but was impressed at the same time. You make me think and I can dig it without flames. <3

Again, good thing about being an unknown artist: Nobody gives two shits about my opinion. I could make a story about why pedophiles are awesome and not receive any crap.

Your father seems to be an interesting man...

As my father observed: "Why have ulcers when, with just a little bit of effort, you can cause them?"

@NumberGone
We don't pity him, we laugh at him because we all think he's an idiot

There's another saying... "While you can please some people all of the time and all the people some of the time, you cannot please all of the people all of the time!" We simple folk out in rural America often abbreviate this sentiment by saying "Fu**'em" but I'm not sure if that translates...

*sighs* Oh, NumberNone. Has revisiting those painful highschool days really warranted the anonymous, pitiful comments to this cartoonist who's just trying to make a living off of what he enjoys? First you mock the fact that he made a mistake drawing too much 'Japanese art' and then you continue to mercilessly mock insecurities you have yourself, in droves! I hope the people here take pity on you, NumberNone. Your life has been hard. :(

You are so afraid of negative comments it's sad.



7:22am Tue 26th Apr #8173906

It's easy, all you have to do is tell people your honest opinion about something and then, "WHAM!".



6:45pm Sun 24th Apr #8173731

THIS one is my favourite out of all of yours.!!



4:08pm Thu 21st Apr #8173499

For to lolz. It's a universal fact that even the most purest thing will offend somebody-better to take the risk.



5:13pm Sun 10th Apr #8172516

Well, say anything, it's gonna upset someone.



8:39am Thu 7th Apr #8172215

well, if you do nothing, nothing will happen for sure, but I would cry a river if every single artist started to think like that. World is interesting, because we are different. :3

Isn't a bit ridiculous that people think you ought to be able to read all of their minds and always know exactly what might or might not upset them? Humor is humor....
