Today, we've reached the 100th comic. I also redesigned the entire site from the bottom up. Unfortunately, there's still a few bugs to work out and the changes probably won't be seen until later today because of the delays with the hosting service. Hopefully the site looks nice. I decided that flat colors fit in well with the flat-color style of the comic.

Some people wonder what my position is on video game violence. You see, I don't think the video games make kids more violent than the children of previous generations. I just think the kids of this generation are dumber. Seriously, the problem isn't that the games are violent, it's that the kids don't differentiate the mechanics of games from reality. When people murder each other over some rare sword in an online game, or kill someone for beating them at Counter Strike, you get the idea that people don't realize that there isn't a respawn in real life.

You know whose fault this is? Parents. They are the ones who are supposed to teach kids that there's a difference between violence on TV and in real life. And if they've done that, maybe their kid is just dumb and good ol' natural selection culled them out of the gene pool. Seriously, it's not that much of a loss when a ten year old jumps off a building with a towel tied around his neck, because anybody that age that doesn't know better must be pretty fuckin' dumb.

Perhaps the video games are helping the evolution of humanity by giving dumb kids bad ideas. TV wasn't efficient enough.
