"YOU OUTWITTED ME AND DESTROYED MY LOGIC. LEAVE ME ALONEEEEEE!"

You know Dobson, that's why people hate you.

But the dude from XKCD can actually draw.

Dobson: "I don't want to be right."

Well...no need to worry about that.

(Also, he put an A in there, is there a 'B' part or did he just mess that up?)

With Dobson, there is no 'B' part.

You forget though that Dobson isn't just your typical mediocre artist, he's a Popular! artist on deviantArt. Even with his mediocre art and bad attitude he'd still be just a drop in the mediocre bucket if he wasn't popular.

Quick question, does he make a living off his art?

No. But that doesn't stop him from believing that he does and that as soon as he's discovered by "someone in the biz" he'll be a multimillionaire.

You know, Dobson strikes me as one of those people who don't actually care about art, but they want all the adulation that comes with being an artist. You know, like some scumbag hipster.

Holy shit, that Korean Guy's first reply is fucking spot on. I can't even get over it. It's the best criticism I've ever seen of Dobson because it doesn't even care about the artwork.

 

[ASoulMan]

Preston not caring about his artwork is almost like how GK sees his art as a means to an end AKA "MY ART WILL GET ME RICH WHETHER IT'S AWESOME OR NOT!".

That's what makes XKCD so awesome. It's not only the deep thoughts and nerd humor. It's the fact that it doesn't need to look sophisticated to actually be sophisticated.

Dinosaur Comics is literally the same comic posted over and over again with different dialogue and it manages to be more clever than SYAC.

"Then I don't wanna be right"

Well hey that's a great attitude to have for someone who tends to be wrong a LOT.

A great example of this is Pearls Before Swine. The art is just stick figure animals but it's one of the funniest newspaper comics of all time.

No wonder GK watches him.

 

[MysticMisty]

To be honest I think GK only watches him, and more importantly comments all the time, so Dobson will discover his "art" and promote him to his legion of fans. Too bad for GK Dobson is only counting the positive comments and doesn't give half a shit about an even lesser talented artist commenting on his journals.

I can see why one certain pyrite pervert is such a big fan. They're practially one and the same.
