Okay, I'm curious. I'd like to see what all you people read.
Post the strips you read today (or "so far this week/month" or whatever for less-frequently-updated strips), any you usually do but didn't today, or whatever. Reasoning/excuses welcome and encouraged; feel free to discuss, though, although really heated discussions of anything should probably go to new threads.
To start things out:
Read today: Narbonic, Wigu, DS, and Achewood.
Usually read, but have fallen behind on: Goats, Bob the Angry Flower, Ozy & Millie, Owlie, a few others.
You?
-
Read today: Achewood, DS.
Usually read, way behind: WiGU (and I'm ashamed to have let this lapse, but then again, it's going to be lots of love when I catch up).
Have read on occasion, but let pile up: Goats, Sluggy Freelance, Elftor, Sexy Losers (slightly ashamed, as it's not really very good).
Print comics that I usually read online: Tom the Dancing Bug, Red Meat, Partially Clips.
Print comic that I read online and in print because it's that good: Maakies.

Achewood, of course (http://www.achewood.com)

The Urban Legend Reference Pages (http://www.snopes.com)
Slow Wave (http://www.slowwave.com)
That's my web reading list. Oh, and I also read Carolyn Hax's advice column and live chat in the Washington Post. But you'll have to find that link on your own because, frankly, I'm lazy.
-
I read relatively few. I think it's down to how bad my memory is; I can only remember to check a couple of places daily.
So Achewood is my daily one.
I check up on Drew Weing's Journal Strip (http://www.drewweing.com) and Pup over at serializer every few days.
I used to read Elftor fairly regularly but then it introduced me to Achewood.
-
Yeah, the Journal Comic is on my "read ever so often and dive the archives" list. It's very archive-readable, which I like a lot.
Oh! And Cat and Girl (http://www.catandgirl.com) is also excellent and weekly, although I haven't read Monday's strip yet.

*rushes madly to explodingdog for huge fix of lo-fi comic goodness*
-
. . . but I'll speare you.
Please don't.
Anyway, I thought this was just looking for strips, but I also read pretty much everything on ESPN's Page 2, especially Tuesday Morning Quarterback. Also, most of the columnists at CNNSI (now SI.com), the Onion, Straight Dope, Dan Savage, anything I can find online by David Sedaris, and sometimes FeroJ's whatever it is.
