A lot of you are getting on rsteven's case for it's not being as ... I dunno ... versatile as Achewood. True, but I never thought that was r's aim. Maybe DS isn't everyone's cup of tea, but you gotta say something for the guy who has put out a daily comic every day for three years. Not every one's a winner, but they all exhibit a certain level of quality. I don't feel I can say that about Achewood, which has not gone for as long and does not have the same consistency. Why is it every time Onstad skips a comic I feel like it's my fault? That's just not right. If he wants to do something different with his site, then so be it. But these changes, and columns, and sometimes lame comics are beginning to try my patience.

And to get back on topic (uh ... sort of): Shopping for a father's day card is unbearable. Not every dad golfs, sucks at handyman work, is a walking ATM or is a lazy slob who sits in front of the television all day. This leaves me with very few options for father's day, and frankly, sometimes I just skip the card.

I had decided I wasn't going to join this board, yet, here I am.

I understand why Onstand dumped his board, and I'm very surprised he didn't do it sooner. But in a way it seemed to be on the road to getting better. When John A closed down the Scary Go Round board, it was filled with stupidity and obnoxious children. Now that it's reopened, it seems people are a little more careful with what they post. Perhaps Onstad just needs a cooling off period. But I suppose a man can only take "Why don't you post funny comics!" and "I want this T-shirt!" so much.

Overall, I was a bit surprised by the change in schedule; but as many others have pointed out, it's his comic, we don't pay a dime for it, and really have no control over it. Yes, he does it for his fans, but I get the impression from Onstad that he is more of an Artiste than rstevens is. R does it because he likes poop and pixels and making people laugh.
