BOOOO!!!

As a side note, the saddest thing is a puppy who copies off of better puppies.

This is not imitation, or plagiarism, it is further exploration of a subject. It is both a tribute to Onstad, the pioneer of saddest things, and a statement that Onstad never made.

Also T-Rex could stomp you so hard.

I think this is my favourite DC.  The alt-text cracks me up every time.

Didn't Ryan post here a few times back in The Day?* So that would make this a Lie Bot tribute.

Yeah, he posted here when Dino Comix were new, and a few of us (me) did not think that they were at all good or funny.

I must admit, though, that he has really stretched a LOT of mileage out of reusing the same art over and over again.

I didn't read them at all at the time out of principle. It just bugged me when he and that Steve Hogan guy came here apparently only to pimp their own comics. I do remember Ryan contributing to discussions but still.

I've since gone back and read the archives and while I have to be in a certain mood to read Dinosaur Comics I do enjoy them and more than a couple are really funny. The two about biggest regrets stand out in my mind.

Plus he created Ohno***** which makes up for everything and then some.

Ha, I said the subject line out loud when I read today's Dinosaur Comics, completely independent of TOUAMB.
