We have a "Favorite Sinfest Strip" thread so why not a "Worst Sinfest Strip" just to make it even?

This thread only furthers the stereotype that Sinfest has any bad comics, when in fact all of them are the shizzle.

I don't care much for the poetry. Also, the calligraphy ones don't interest me much. And there are some of the spoof ones that are not that clever. I guess I prefer story-line humor. Also, any strip about something-tron I don't get. Somehow I missed the whatever-tron craze.

We can appreciate the transition even if we can't read the characters.

I love that kind of stuff... Like when you see them combine a picture of the mother-to-be and father-to-be to predict what their kid might look like. I think it's neat.

I didn't particularly care for the strips a few months back where Tat wasn't updating regularly and all the jokes seemed to be run-of-the-mill irony. Only I'd spotted the punchline for "What if we're all brains in vats?" a mile away, so there was no real irony to speak of.

I like the calligraphy comics and the more off-beat ones. I don't think every comic should cram in as many laughs as it can at the expense of the author's integrity and ability to create. I also don't laugh out loud that much anyway, so the point is semi-moot.

I really just don't care for the cat and dog strips. Gimme some storyline anyday.

You just didn't get it. You see, that last panel wasn't them imagining they were brains in vats.

They actually were honest-to-goodness brains in vats. Thus the humor comes from them speculating about a situation that actually, very much so really happened.

Which makes you think, "Whoaaaa... I could be a brain in a vat too!"
