Chill out dudes, it’s just a comic. If you want to leave, just go. There is a way to see it, I forget how though.

I noticed the people who are complaining the most are the people who don’t pay anything to read them.

FROM THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER PRINT EDITION: The entire strip is from the living room with the BL standing and facing Uncle Ted sitting in an arm chair with a light sitting behind the chair. Everything is in color except the second panel which is all in shadow. 1st panel: (the BL to Uncle Ted) I have to say, Uncle Ted, that you are sharp as a tack, despite your age! What’s your secret? 2nd panel: (Uncle Ted to the BL) Every day, I do mental exercises for my brain, just as I exercise my muscles for my body! Third panel: For example, when I get up in the morning, I start reading newspapers, books, the internet… Fourth panel: …and I don’t stop until I’ve learned at least one new fact each day! Fifth panel: (the BL) Wow! That really is impressive! What did you learn today? Sixth panel: (Uncle Ted) I forget!

Now that the image is fixed and the complaints are done…
Jokes like this one inevitably remind me of Lewis Carroll’s “You Are Old, Father William”

I find it interesting that people automatically blame it on gocomics. If the cartoonist colours his own strips — as some do, and many more do it on Sundays — then the problem had nothing to do with the website. It’s irresponsible and unfair to cast blame without actually knowing whose fault it was. I don’t like the new “improved” website, but I’m not going to use that as an excuse to start flinging unfounded accusations.
