Check it out;

http://www.smokingtree.net/UnfunnyPages-CyanideHappiness.htm

This guy has an interesting viewpoint about that comic thats for sure. He mentions that our comic is "hit and miss", and then goes on to be pretty harsh to Matt and pick on Rob for quite a while. Its a legit opinion that we're "hit and miss", so I'm not gonna call him names or anything. In fact he seems ok. It makes for a neat outsider's point of view though.

Nice of him to call me "the good one" though :fmita:. Lolz, joke. But either way, his 'tribute' is better than about 99% of our guest comic submissions. Maybe we should contact him and have him make comics since he's really funny and edgy.

What do you guys think of the article?

The joke being that there’s a bed and it talks and it wants the guy who is about to go to bed to be inside of it. Like a vagina.

Anybody can ruin a comic when you explain like this. :ahe:

JonC
08-19-2007, 11:21 PM
This guy's point of view is rather shitty in my opinion. No offense Dave, but he refers to you as, "the good one", but yet only shows one of your comics. But he bashes matt and rob throughout teh whole thing.

I think he just doesn't get the humor that is with some of their comics. For example, Matt's comic saying, "I want you inside me." To me, thats a genius take on that phrase.

WookieRage
08-19-2007, 11:22 PM

The guy might have some points, but picking out any of the hundreds of daily comics that C + H has produced just to show the "less funny" ones is basically like using Michael Moore to represent America.

I like how he puts 'go where no one has ever gone before, and touch on topics too controversial for THE WORLD, they break taboos…' in single quotation, implying that it's a description taken from this website.

The bang kill one was HELLarious. My friend and I can't stop laughing everytime we see it.

I think that was meant as a good one in his example, but I'm not sure.

You guys should put his up as a special guest comic, he deserves it.

Rob
08-20-2007, 1:44 AM
"For every strip that works and forces you to laugh out loud there’s at least three that miss. "

One out of four ain't bad.

Also, that was a horribly written article. Where'd you find it and why'd you post it?

edit: One thing that makes it shitty is he analyzes every comic by saying how it's supposed to be controversial, even though most of our comics aren't. He set out to prove that our stuff isn't funny, which is a pretty easy task if you over-explain everything and pick a few comics from our off days.

Kevosk
08-20-2007, 1:51 AM

I dunno, the guy's a prick and therefore doesn't deserve any special recognition.

Sugabe
08-20-2007, 1:55 AM
At least the bad comics aren't as shitty as that guys writing. He was trying to hard to be that harsh edgy critic and then criticizes the boy for trying too hard. That is quite a conundrum.

Meh, I wish I could regain the life that I wasted reading that article back. Sorry, Dave, I think your fan boy is an idiot.

Guys, you should thank this guy. Look at all that publicity he's giving you! I mean, there's no such thing as bad publicity.

What I find funny is that in reality he probably only get's a fraction of the hits www.explosm.net gets on his website, and the stuff about Matt. Well, that's just because he isn't off the intellectual level too understand Matt's comics. Out of you four guys Matt is the guy who makes you think most about the comic - perhaps you won't laugh out loud immediately like with Robs' or Kris' or Daves', but it'll come after as the meaning slowly dawns on you.

What a n00b at life.

I didn't actually think you guys were ever trying to be 'controversial'. I mean, you're just writing comics on the internet, for fuck's sake.
The guy said that the "Controversial Topic" from the bench one was wife-beating. I just think he's trying to be badass by saying that wife-beating is funny.

Wife beating ain't meant to be funny, it's meant to get your dinner cooked.

I actually don't mind when critics go ahead and publish articles that can be somewhat drastic, but this guy doesn't even know how to criticise.

Looking at the rest of the content on that site, I'm guessing it is a 15 year old with too much spare time making a website in a desperate attempt to be funny.

Somebody should write an article criticizing his site. Take the "celebrity battle fights" for example. http://www.smokingtree.net/cbfhome.htm A complete waste of time thats really not funny.

Frank
08-20-2007, 7:17 AM
Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you read one of these comics for 5 seconds, have a quick laugh and then move on? You dont sit there for a day breaking down a comic to the best of your ability to come up with a poorly written article that nobody can take seriously.

I have to admit though, his pooping aids line was funnier than a lot of Matt's comics. Sorry Matt

Don't worry about it. We think your comics are funny, so why worry about some fuckwit whose only purpose was to put C&H down?

This article.
Loses points for: talking like this.
Controversial part: tries to be edgy but phails.
Not only is this article badly written, but can you really judge C&H on six comics.
You pretty much have to be able to just sit and read a ton of them to find the ones that are pure gold. Yes as a C&H fan I'll admit, some of the comics just make me cringe, but the reason i keep checking back is because there are always those golden comics thrown in there that are completely worth it.

Tayoshi
08-20-2007, 9:53 AM
Ok, he did have some good points...But, he admitted that he laughed at the comics that he was making fun of. He was pointing out the very minute things in it that are wrong. If something makes you laugh, laugh about it, remember it, and move on. Don't be a dick about it. Your comics have made me laugh for so amazingly long and I haven't pointed out a thing wrong with them, I just laugh and I'm happy that you guys have done such a great job in doing so.

I am an edgy critic.

Here is exactly why, in a dry tone, with quick, biting marks and over-emphasised detail... I can also make my point be speaking very plainly, but using sarcasm to remain "funny".

To highlight my points, I can use few examples from an archive of many comics. By being selective, I prove myself right. As this is a one-way media with no open forum, it is difficult to contradict me and have other opinions expressed.

P0K3M0N_MA5T3R
08-20-2007, 3:09 PM
The way he words everything is so stupid, let's take one of my favourite comics, the wanna see my ass, etc. Comic. Using his stupid method I could easily make that the worst comic ever, observe;
This joke is clearly showing the first two men using obvious sayings, want to see my buns, being breasts but then turn out to be actual iced buns. And finally the man showing his ass, a slang term for a donkey, when you expect him to do as the other 2 men did and show an actual donkey
Looses points for: Being too obvious, when you see the man you know he is going to show his ass.
Controversial Topics. Fags, the 4 men in the topic are clearly gay as they show horror on their faces but inside they want to take him from behind and ride him like a Bucking Bronco.
To recap-the man is an idiot. I could take anything funny and look so deep into it that I make it boring.

Matt
08-20-2007, 3:16 PM
I'll be the first to admit all of us have made some horribly bad comics, but the ones he chose... I liked. For the most part. Rob's "too gross" doctor comic and my "i want you inside me" bed comic are, in my humble opinion, pretty damn good and some of my many favorites.

In this case, it's all a matter of opinion.

What I find funny, though, is that he commends Dave for being edgy in the very first comic then condemns us at the end for trying to be edgy. The "fucking" in the green eggs and ham comic could be left out and it'd be the exact same comic. Granted, it's definitely not one of my best (by a long shot :fmita:), but the joke has nothing to do with the use of the word "fucking," which is what he pokes at in his review.

Meh, can't please 'em all.

Well, he makes a valid point. One that I may not agree with but at least he's not overly whiny and being a jackass about it. There were a few C&H comics that I didn't think were funny but the majority of them I really enjoyed, the sad part is he didn't talk about Kris. Kris is the best.

Maybe I'm a bit late in replying to this thread, but I found the article a bit.. harsh?

On the flipside of the coin is the un-funny. Or I like to call ‘The Matt Comics’.

To me, that's a bit arsey saying that. I think Matt is funny! It's stupid passing judgement on a comic writer through one comic and that one comic being one that he doesn't seem to 'get'.
Though, admittingly, the early early explosm comics aren't as funny as the new ones - you guys just keep getting better!

I find explosm comics very original, and therefore funny, like today's one, infact!

The one about the pepperoni he calls the controversial topic pepperoni pizza...NO WHERE IN THE FUCKING COMIC WAS THE WORD 'pizza' EVER USED.
And in the talking bench one he mentions wife beating...again...WIFE BEATING WAS NEVER EVEN TALKED ABOUT. It's just ignoring women..which is the best way to deal with their impossibility of ever being understood.

I found it interesting that while I agreed with his over-all opinion, I found nearly every specific point to be off. I disagreed with his assessment of the individual cartoonists, and thought his ratings were pretty arbitrary and pointless. Finally, his comic was horribly lame. "Pooping aids"? Was that supposed to be ironic?

He does have a valid point at some bits. Like where he says that some of the comics are hit and miss but thats to be expected from a daily comic.

On the other hand he says some rubbish like how the bench comic is about wife beating, wife beating is never mentioned and also how the older comics are funnier. The new ones are so much better and get loads more laughs out of me.

I wonder if he'll rip the flash movies because some of those are seriously hit and miss.

I do think that Dave's the good one though. If there had to be two, it'd be Dave and Rob. JUS SAYIN.
Holy crap- I'd never relate South Park to C&H. C&H is funny.

+I don't think Matt sits around thinking of what contravercial topic to base his next comic off. The militia seem like they were born contravercial. In fact, I found Matt's comic funnier, from the comment "C&H have turned the world on it's head and made a bed talk". CRAZY SHIT,GUYS.

The doctor comic was about the doctor, not the old guy. The Charles comic was nothing to do with wife beating, he's just a crappy boyfriend. I can't believe how much anyone can just not get Cyanide and Happiness. It's a fuckin simple comic. That does look exactly like something Kris'd make though.

Yeah, the ones that he says sucks are actually pretty funny.

He should have looked for the actual bad ones.

Don't forget that he didn't even mention the best ones, like the Purple Shirted Eye-Stabber, or the AIDS ones, or the "I think I'm pregnant" one. Whoever wrote that article should stop writing articles.

Looking at the rest of the content on that site, I'm guessing it is a 15 year old with too much spare time making a website in a desperate attempt to be funny.

Somebody should write an article criticizing his site. Take the "celebrity battle fights" for example. http://www.smokingtree.net/cbfhome.htm A complete waste of time thats really not funny.

um hay cn i hav mi 30 secs of mi lyf back plz?

I thought the article was... Hit & Miss. *drum thing*

Tbh, I've only read a few C&H comics that weren't funny. Then again, I've been told I have a shitty sense of humor.

Okay C&H is really cool and the comic makers are awesome man...Those were kind of funny too.

I really think they were funny, and I agree, everytime I read a comic, I just laugh like no other. Mad props to C+H

Yeah. That guy completely over thought every one of those "un-funny" comics. When you try to take it literally, and explain in a thoughtful matter, a lot of things won't be funny to you. The comics weren't even shitty though, too. You can't make a harsh review if you're pissing all over yourself putting funny ones. Not ROFLMFAO, but humorous. You've gotta search for the ones you know completely suck because of OTHER people's opinions.

This guy's a dumbass -.-

not all c&h comics are controversial. And of course some comics are going to suck, seeing as they have to shell out a brand new comic every day between four people.

It would seem he takes everything to literally. Instead of just reading it and laughing. Maybe the reason he didn't bash Kris's comics is because they are all good.

The article on C+H was inaccurate in my mind, but I wouldn't go as to say that he is unfunny. I was looking at the newspaper comics he looks at, and I was laughing for like 2 hours after I read all of them. All of his rants about the comics are spot-on (not including C+H), and I think that you should give them a chance and not immediately go "ZOMG HE DONE BURN C+H FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FAG I WOULDN'T NOT HAVE BUTTSEX WITH THE CREATORS OF C+H". Just read some other stuff by him and see what you think.

Only the complete retards think the purple shirted eye-stabbed ones are the best. Y'know, those people who make a thread once a month just to say "U SHUD MAK MAR PARPLE SHARTED I STAYBER COMIX"

This author fails at life.

Sure some of the comics suck ass (no offence, they still make me smirk) but come on. Every comic has their bad days. If these comics are "hit and miss" then why are you writing about them? You obviously have a biased opinion.

They should have used the fatty comic. That one was pure genius.

I say we track the mother fucker down and burn hi piece of shi trailer park to the ground. Alternatively we could write him a strongly worded letter that adequately expressed are feelings on the matter.
Although I have to say I found his attempt at a C&H comic pretty funny. I mean that guys got talent you guys should hire him.

I think C&H comics are really good, hence forth why I joined their forums. He talks like he has made many home run articles, but that one wasn't one of them. First off, these comics are like something that happens in all of our lives in a kind of way. To me, Dead Body one reminded me of my favorite movie, Stand By Me.

Wow, I wish I could be anal-retentive and over analyze simplistic things. Oh wait, that is what weed is for.

I guess I will have to continue being laid back and take these comics for what they are worth...

Given that 90% of his site traffic in the past week probably came from here, who really cares what he has to say? He's not so funny himself, anyway.

wow, that article was a complete waste of time. the guy who wrote that should most likely devolop a sense of humor. and like everyones pointing out, why didnt he pick on Kris? not like i want him to, in my head Kris (and the whole gang) are extermly talented and i admit, no one could come close to these guys. The guy who wrote it had the most dry, unimaginable, lame humor i've ever read or heard. i loved how he said "Controversial Topic: Sex. “I want you inside me” is a common phrase used by women around the world. Especially in South East Asia. C&H have turned the world on it’s head and made a bed talk. Crazy shit guys." i love that joke, the first time i read it, i forwarded it to all my friends and had it in my mind all day. I couldnt stop laughing.
What a loser for even writing that article. awful, awful, awful critism.
I flipping love Cyanide and Happiness, keep doing what your doing guys.

Awsome-o

what about kris? I was waiting for him and his comics are my fav.

What a stupid dick he was about the green eggs and ham joke, the fucking kid was talking to himself. This blows. All of C&H are funny in their own way.

And that comic he edited, was not funny, that was fucking gay, C&H rules, he's just a jealous prick.

You just liked the article because he gave you props, Dave.


No... seriously though, that guy's an idiot. That and, how can you respect a site who's main point of contact is a hotmail email address?

I have news for that guy; if you analyze the piss out of ANY funny thing, it will look like crap.

He is right some comics are bad, but then some are hilarious. He writes shitty and bias and i'm surprised we didn't crash his site.

Hows about somebody reviews his comic?

gains points for: pity

loses points for: being a fag
loses more points for: being a flaming fag
and caps off the festivities by: being an absolute butt-diver.

pooping aids? its not that grea, even for sarcasm. i know you were trying to make it bad on purpose to poke fun at the brilliant C&H comics but even if they sucked on purpose it sucked so bad that even that failed.
