My highly refined sense of humor

I have been having an ongoing debate with many people about whether these comics (click "view slideshow") are brilliant or stupid. I am squarely on the side of brilliant. Are you?

Also, let us all take a moment to reflect on the profound truth expressed in this brilliant lolcat. (Via Alex)

Verdict is no.

I would vote for "clever." On the other hand "comics" is a bit of a misnomer. Not one evokes so much as a smile. The drawings remind me of theatre of the absurd. I appreciate it on an intellectual level, but please, oh please, do not make me sit through a performance.

One vote for "brilliant" -- including several smiles and 1 chuckle.
For another comic with simple drawings and brilliant, check out xkcd http://www.xckd.com
(OK, this is weird: I was sure it was 'xckd' and that's what my bookmark has, but the graphics are all 'xkcd'. My only guess is some strange in-joke.)

Add my vote for brilliant. Also, I second the suggestion of xkcd, which is genius.

One would be funny. All of them together, stupid. Definitely not brilliant.

Dinosaur Comics? Those are brilliant. www.qwantz.com

Ok, ok. I know there are other comics out there, and they are also funny. I am just particularly into the Easter Island ones.

Mgc: Since no one seems to have expressed much interest in performing comic strips yet, I think you should be safe.

I'm with you, Rita. They are brilliant.
