New fear unlocked: What if babies are only born as babies because the people delivering them expect to be delivering a baby?
Someone with sufficiently strong will (or magic) or who has been completely convinced otherwise could change the outcome. Like this.
... wait. Maybe it only applies to placentas. Let's hope it's only placentas.

I like c/comicstrips but I wish there was a way to exclude certain artists whose sense of humour is incompatible with mine.
I never want to see this artist nor cyanide and happiness ever again, if I can help it.
It's a pitty. I love Extrafabulous comics. And I was thinking people would like it here. Even so his humour could be kinda weird.

Maybe this community can start putting the artist/source in the post title. Unless that becomes a rule I doubt that would happen though.
What don't you like about C&H?
The real problem with Cyanide and Happiness is that it’s just a shadow of Rob DenBleyker’s former greatness… Joe Zombie!

wrote last edited by [email protected]It's a comedy strip, and humour is extremely subjective. What works for one person won't work for someone else.
I see it as intentionally being a "bad taste" comic by design, and as someone who never enjoyed Happy Tree Friends or other franchises which use violence, sex or toilet humour as cornerstones, it's already on an uphill battle as far as my tastes are concerned.
Of course, dark humour and "bad taste" have been important parts of human comedy since forever, and I don't mind them when it serves a purpose. But Cyanide and Happiness seems to exist purely on bad taste, as if bad taste is entertaining in it's own right.
To me it feels completely insubstantial, and so for me it's a pass.

I'm sure lots of people here do and will like it - just not me!
You should keep posting it, obviously.

I can't remember any details on this, so I'm probably going to butcher it, but I once heard a comedian talk about this. Roughly, he said:
I love it when couples say "we're expecting." Like "we're expecting a baby... But it could be an orangutan!"

That sounds like Garfunkle and Oates.

Possible, but I don't think I ever watched or listened to their material. I was thinking John Mulaney or Mike Birbiglia but couldn't find a clip of either of them saying it after a brief search.

I can't guarantee the authenticity but a friend of a friend's wife ended up pregnant. She very clearly wanted to be a mother more than anything.
She ended up kind of having a miscarriage because the placenta was just straight up empty. Like her brain just convinced her body that she was pregnant and began the process.

C&H had some hits years ago but yeah it does seem like they have to keep jumping the shark to stay relevant and it’s a miss so so so often.
That said I’d take 10 bad C&H over another bluejayoo

A community rule to tag the artist in the title would make it possible to filter by keyword. Seems like a pretty reasonable rule to put in place, imo, if only for attribution purposes even.

Gives me strong Mulaney vibes. I know I've heard it before.

I think he used this one in multiple variations. But I love that one too. Pretty much a good meme material.

Jim Gaffigan maybe?

He had a whole bit that included babies being skinned for wallets by a cold laser bath machine but okay.

Who would do that if they didn't like babies?
