Keyword. If this is going to be your example, some are funny sometimes, then why would you be into comics if you don't find the majority of them enjoyable? That was the original question, are you a fan of comics? That's like me saying I'm into sports, but I don't like football, basketball, softball, soccer, baseball, golf, hockey, tennis, skiing, water polo, and NASCAR.
I added another keyword but regardless if it's not all and always that's still an explanation to your quandry of why people get into those shits .
Uh, obviously. My comment was based on my perspective. There wouldn't be any comics if people didn't enjoy them. I'm well aware of that fact.
Some have a storyline that some of us like to follow for a few seconds a day. No one is saying you're wrong for not liking them but we're not wrong if we do.

Today it's harder to find them, but have you ever read the original Garfield comics from the 70s and 80s?

Wasn't the original question what are your favorite comic strips?
Yes. Now how would that be different from being into them? They correlate.
So I can enjoy football or baseball or bear baiting and not like basketball, hockey or NASCAR and still be into sports. I like to watch TV too but I don't like every show.
You can be, but that was hardly the point I made. Why would you say you're into sports and dislike the majority of sports? It doesn't make sense. I liked ONE comic strip but I dislike most others because they're boring. Which is why I don't understand why people like them because I find them boring. I know the ones who don't are the ones who read them. Tis all good either way.
I really enjoy The Boondocks on TV but never had the chance to read it as a strip. What was it in? A newspaper?

You will. Please don't go there. If you're talking about who I think you're talking about, I'll strangle you. LOL. I am NOTHING like that fool.
The question was still, what's your favorite? In your case it's The Boondocks. Period. Every other one you find boring. Tell you what. If you want to say that I'm not into sports because I only follow a relative few (and I didn't say I disliked the majority) that's fine. If you want to say that I'm not into TV because only a small percentage of what's available interests me, that's cool too. But be that as it may, I can still have favorites.
I didn't say you did. I used sports as an example. I was making a point. It wasn't meant to be taken literally. But okay.
I don't think The Boondocks was ever in the Star Ledger. My loss.
You still have it and you cry about it? Or am I misunderstanding your post?alan smithee wrote:
Short lived in your paper maybe
Maybe that paper didn't/doesn't have a big enough circulation. It was in the Daily News.
