octopi is a ridiculous plural form. It is plain and simple octopuses. Don't try to be fancy.

Besides, everyone knows it's octopodes. ;)

Also, as a lover of cephalopods, I'm horrified and disgusted at this tradition.

Only on the internet can you read a blog article which is a reprint of a magazine article which is a summary of a television episode.

The meta, it hurts!

This post betrays a deep misunderstanding about evolution: that it has a goal.

There is no such thing as "more evolved" - technically, we are all more evolved than people 2000 years ago, because our DNA is ever-so-slightly different. Evolution is all about change and fitness. Changes happen, and the environment culls out the unfit. The result is no better or worse than what came before...just different, and perhaps a little more complex.

I saw the cockatiel as more of a headbanger.

This may sound like a silly idea, but why not just put him with the older kids who are more on his level of talent?

While the technology is getting better, she still fell hard into the Uncanny Valley. It was something about the eyes and mouth, to me...

Looks more like a cownose ray from this angle. Note the lack of a "dorsal" fin in the back, and instead, two smaller fins on the sides.

Either way, poor guy.

Great idea - too bad the eraser icon wasn't highlighted.

Sorry for the nerd rage man, but I just got that impression from reading your comments on there.

Box Brown seems to be missing the point of Garfield Minus Garfield: removing Garfield (or just his thought bubbles, if you count the idea from CastleZZT) makes John's talking to himself and zany antics look truly insane and downright depressing at times. He completely overlooks this, and thinks that:

1. Take comic strip
2. Remove main character
3. Profit!

His results with Dilbert are mediocre at best, at would only really parallel G-G if he removed everyone *but* Dilbert, or some other selected character.

Honestly, I think he sounds a bit jealous that this guy had a funny idea, and is making some cash from it.

I'm a little surprised Oldboy isn't on there.
