Of all the comics I've read today, this is one of them.

[–] RogueBanana@lemmy.zip 6 points 11 months ago

I had a hard time understanding what i just read and that pretty much sums it up

[–] SkyNTP@lemmy.ml 56 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

Can't tell who this is making fun of. I guess the answer is: everyone.

[–] GuerillaGorillas@lemmy.world 23 points 11 months ago

These comics are usually more just absurdism than anything else, and I love it.

[–] doctorcrimson@lemmy.today 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Definitely everyone. Art is good, reveals are good, the joke density is good with back to back quips and reveals, but for some reason it kind of left me lacking any sense of resolution. Maybe I've become jaded from people "ironically" posting conservative hate comics that I now view each new comic I see with a sense of apprehensive doubt.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Felt to stuffed with jokes for me

[–] jivandabeast@lemmy.browntown.dev 36 points 11 months ago (2 children)

FUCK YES

The good comics from Reddit are finally making it over, haven't seen a "The Other End" in MONTHS lmfao

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I haven't seen one of these ever before.

[–] jivandabeast@lemmy.browntown.dev 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They're really fucking funny, like an oddly dark and chaotic sense of humor

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I'm reading back through them now, they're fantastic

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 months ago (4 children)

I haven't seen a Pizzacake in a while

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Pizzacake is actually a good comic

This comic however I didn't like

[–] sag@lemm.ee -1 points 11 months ago

I didn't uploaded it because so many people hate or don't like Pizzacake Comic.

[–] urist@lemmy.blahaj.zone -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Did… did anyone actually like pizzacake? I thought it was an ironic meme you guys were doing.

[–] 5too@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I also like Pizza cake!

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee -2 points 11 months ago

They did say the good comics.

[–] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 30 points 11 months ago

Well that was a ride.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Do they speak English in What?

[–] don@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

Wh-wh-what?

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 19 points 11 months ago

I thought this was gonna be some parabole about veganism but I'm honestly not sure.

[–] exocortex@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 11 months ago

oof that was a let-down

[–] NovaPrime@lemmy.ml 12 points 11 months ago

Fucking dark. Love it

[–] SVcross@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Thanksgiving food is surprisingly mediocre. Seems like it was designed by the British.

[–] minorcoma@lemmy.world 29 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm sorry you haven't experienced good Thanksgiving food.

[–] SVcross@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] ripcord@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

However, there is a lot of super good thanksgiving food

[–] the_artic_one@programming.dev 15 points 11 months ago (2 children)

It's mediocre because most people never try to cook any of it outside of Thanksgiving and don't experiment with the recipes because they're trying to cook a bunch of dishes and don't want to mess them up.

Turkey is good when it's not overcooked and underseasoned. Mashed potatoes are good when they're not gummy from not having the extra starch rinsed off or chunky from being undercooked. Stuffing is good when it's not shoved into a turkey cavity or soggy from sitting in drippings and has ingredients in it besides bread.

[–] ChihuahuaOfDoom@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I agree with everything you said but the stuffing, I prefer mine prepared in the bird but I make another batch cooked on its own for those who don't like it.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

It's also a good idea to soak the turkey in brine and ice before cooking

[–] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Try going to New Orleans next year for TG. They know how to do it right.

Are you from america

american food is unhealthy as fuck, their is literally something wrong with the way american food is made

[–] 342345@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

*sigh* So much time and effort spent.

[–] zipzoopaboop@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This should have been like 4 panels and ended at the turkey reveal. But it just. Keeps. Going

[–] Robmart@lemm.ee -1 points 11 months ago

This should have ended at panel 0.

[–] constableunstable@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

I love TheOtherEnd. They take the humor way past the logical conclusion and subverts my expectations every time.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You get any more of them pixels

Also I don't get what this comic is trying to say at all

It's just a mish mash of text and images to me and I didn't get any message or meaning from it at all

If someone wants to explain it you're welcome too but I literally don't get what the point of this comic strip is

[–] ButtCheekOnAStick@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

The new girlfriend Stephanie is a Turkey. Her dad Jim is getting served for dinner that year, so it's super awkward. It's quite a bizarre comic and not very funny.

[–] fosforus@sopuli.xyz 1 points 11 months ago

This is the best comic I've seen this year.
