Super Pets are Super Stupid
I read
this article
via
Mike Sterling
's
blog entry a few days back
, and it looks like he got it from
somewhere else
. I think Sterling pretty much sums it up: these are really funny comics, and very enjoyable to read. If these comics and these characters are stupid, then give me
more stupid
comics and characters, please. And not
self-conscious stupid
, either. Those are fine, but no substitute for
the real thing
