Didn't see this posted yet, but a batgirl comic panel that made me laugh.

Edit: Woah, way late by a year. How long has comics been this SJW'y for?

So maybe it's because I don't go around in hipster circles, but since when are laundromats that big or have "trendy" cafeterias/bars?

Burnside (the neighborhood where Batgirl lives) is the worst thing to ever happen to Barbara's character, and yes I'm including her being shot and paralyzed.

I’ll guarantee you they’ve got craft beers and artisanal coffee, which costs ten times what normal shit would.

They appear to be holding pint beer glasses and drinking through straws. I don't think the artist has ever ordered a cocktail or a brew in their life.

I think the joke is that the whole place is an obnoxious laundromat-themed bar for insufferable hipsters. I'll admit that got a genuine chuckle out of me.

The funny thing would be if some scatterbrained waiter mixes in soap with cream and serves it in a coffee to one of these guys.

I honestly saw quite a few proto-hipster douches in 2006 or so who drank beer with a straw.

Usually it was out of a Heineken bottle, but sometimes it was pint glasses too.

Unadulterated savagery.

Like people that use Single Malt in a scotch and soda.

I'd like a Bulleit Manhattan, but Clorox bleach instead of vermouth.:drink:

Drinking beer through a straw sucks. You basically inject tons of gas into your beer which makes your stomach a ticking time bomb. Kind of why i dont use my beer hat anymore. Novelty is cool but having to rally a few extra times sucks
 

I like how "DON'T BUY MY PRODUCT" is now the go to phrase. Already doing it. That and the whole "Why don't you people prioritize my issues first instead of some goofy comics". I'm here for Spider-Man, why should I be getting your life in order?

It's like consumers can actually detect when some shitty, talentless phony of an "artist" has absolute contempt for them, and acts accordingly, not buying their worthless product.

Is it a thing in any medium that the "artist" takes center stage with the product being irrelevant? I wish them luck in life like I'd do for anyone but I can't come up with a single reason why I need to be their new "Bank of Daddy", therapist, and asskisser all rolled into one. This is literally the same thing Dobson always complains about people not doing with him.

They're caretakers for the works of giants that came before them, they don't seem to get their job. They might reach that level someday but no one owes them anything.

It's like Spinal Tap. They're just becoming more selective with their audience.

Bonvillain is a troon and that's probably the sole reason for having a job.

If you want to take a shot at their job, you can point they're a colorist who's acting like this. Imagine being on a series that's losing customers because of a troon you're hiring to color books. Not someone who's part of the core like an artist or writer.

It's kind of a running joke on places like /co/ that during the 60s and 70s, he used to fuck the wives of all his employees but mostly Jack Kirby who died an angry sad penniless bastard despite being equally as responsible for Marvel as Stan. Just a bullshit thing people ran with as a joke.

:offtopic: Was Kirby penniless by the end of his life? Because the guy never seemed to be out of work :offtopic:

I don't know the whole story. I think he was living in a run down apartment in his later years. Tbh I don't know where people got the idea that Stan took the credit for the work of people like Kirby or Ditko, he never referred to himself as such or implied it. The problem looks to be more a mix of no one really liked to be in the spotlight like Stan did and Kirby had a thing of making bad deals despite his success. It's tragic but I suppose it teaches everyone how important people skills are.
