Everything I know about anatomy I learned from cartoons

I demand more Marissa... She's neato keen.

Seven eyes...turns living beings inside out with her mind...bad posture...sour demeanor...I didn't think it was possible, but I'm more in love with her than ever!!

are you even trying to be funny anymore?

Seven eyes! Wow! Most of us just got the three.

This one's great!

Once again, love it!

Nope. Not even a chuckle.

Well I liked it and thought it was the best yet

Well I thought it was funny. I'm really starting to like these characters the more I get to know them. Keep it up!

Hmm. So if she inverted kittens would she get pigeons? And what happens if she turns a full-grown cat inside-out? Is that where harpies come from?

I love Strawberry's exaggerated facial expressions, and found this to be funny because of it. I like this strip. ;D

Panels 3 and 4 are genius! Your drawings are appealing as hell. Wait, is that an insult? Let's just assume hell is really appealing.

I second the comments about Marissa

Yay! This is so far beyond psychotic it's wonderful!

Now that I've seen a few of the comics, the environment is coming together for me. I can see why people don't "Get It" (tm) because it's soooo far over the edge, they don't see the internal consistency that provides context.

Ok, so I'm over-analyzing... Nanny nanny poo poo!

PS -- Ditto about Marissa! The only "sane" one in this universe is a uber-psychokinetic space alien? ROFL!

You're earning your paycheck here -- Keep it up!

Oh, didn't realize she actually had powers! Thought it was more nonsense Strawberry made up. Yay a kitty.

this is not that funny. what is happening? why are there no FUNNY comics anymore?

What's almost as funny as the strip are the commenters who confuse "this doesn't suit my sense of humor" with "this isn't funny" or "this sucks."

Look, little boys, you have your cartoon tits and asses and erections on Tuesday, and your head wounds and poopies on Thursday. You can't have the whole week, no matter what Mommy told you. Learn to cope.

oh this is just so RANDOM XD
like llama pancakes XD
:3

There was no pay off there. Admit it, your just making these up as you go along. Add a freaking punchline! Stop with the randomness. Anyone can be random.

heeheehee Happenstance you crack me up.
I think I met Marissa once at a rave. She turned me inside out.

Inside out Rickys are Roscoe's!

Great comic! =D

i think the masses are finally starting to come around and have learned to enjoy this series with the rest of us.

Except a couple haters... i find it really funny that they h8 this strip yet they still take the time to read it AND comment

FRS, keep kicking ass!!

awesome things about this comic:

*how hard Strawberry is petting the pidgeon's head in panel 2

*Strawberry's pose and expression in panel 4. looks kind of like she's in modeling pose, HAHA

*"Why are we friends? Because I love you" - so cute!!

*KITTEN!!!

*Marissa is a sexy goddess.


YAY!!!

I love Marissa at the end. I quite often feel that way and say "I hate everything." Wonderful comic, keep it up!

At least this one had a punchline. Heeey!

Actually, I think the title was the best part!

Cutest kitten ever- pawing the errant milk cap! Great job Kyle & John!

... SO many good ones to choose from. Keep it up, bro.

You don't like a comic with no punchline? Well you must be a retarded hater.

what's interesting is how many people are so ardently against criticism - if you put your work on display, does that now mean only positive feedback is permitted? can we make this an official dumm rule?

i'll never complain about the art in this comic; it's fantastic, expressive, flexible, and pleasing. what the problem is is the writing.

there's nothing wrong with random humour, but the problem i find with the writing here is that the random humour is pointless, disjointed, childish, and the jokes very clumsily and poorly lead into each other. this comic reads like it was scripted by 12 year old jhonen vasquez fans. the difference is, while JV's humour is hit or miss, his jokes can lead into each other and make for a funny punchline, or funny situations.

i've commented on the other FRS but this is one less person who will peruse Dumm on weekends. the other comics employ juvenile humour in different ways - nightmare theater thrives on violence and shocks, skadi is about a dumb barbarian, sorry guys is frat humour at it's finest - but all are still entertaining for the most part. sorry guys makes clever puns or charming stories following a single joke. FRS is a trainwreck of deviantart comments.

Yes.

...that I like where this strip is going.

From the evil baby strip, I could tell it was going to be random. (More po-mo than random, and I tend to get swept up in either thing, but anyway...) That may or may not last, but that's up to Kyle (and/or John?) to determine.

The characters are really strong, though, and that's enough to keep me interested. This cool comic that we're reading (for free, you guys) is an emergent phenomenon, while the haters will never change.

Course, if they really hated it, they'd stay the hell away. You guys.

free = therefore impervious to criticism?

what

FRS certainly draws in a lot of intense love as well as a lot of harsh criticism. I'd like to say that both sides of the coin are welcome here at Dumm.

Yet, the haters should also realize that criticism of their criticism is also something that is allowed and encouraged. Of course, criticism of one's criticism toward one's criticism is also encouraged...and so on, and so forth.

One thing is for certain, Kyle and John must be doing something right....since they started at Dumm, our Saturday traffic has risen by nearly 400 visitors, and it continues to grow every week.

It's like they say, "there's no such thing as bad publicity".

More simply, just remember that this is a place where criticism is accepted. But don't be surprised if someone else wants to criticize your complaint. I mean, both are to be expected on a public art site, right? :)

haters are secretly lovers

Well, what's the point of criticism if the content is made available for free? You only waste precious time if you linger around and ohmygodimlateforwork!!

Scott Bakula pogs are cool!

I am falling in love with this comic. You rock like never before, man! Respect!

free content still doesn't entail free from flaws. that's a juvenile way to approach things - this is a showcase of comics from a collection of different artists, and while i don't hate any of the comics personally (including frs), there are still times when there's something else i want to express besides LOL FUNNI. kyle has said in previous installments he appreciates constructive criticism because it helps to find out what works and what doesn't. nothing but brainless praise based around the argument 'but it's free' is a logical fallacy. free in no way sensibly leads to 'so don't offer critique'.

and now i am late for the dentist.

Fishlips is absolutely right. Both praise (if it's genuine) and constructive criticism are appreciated. Anger is not. I don't want to comment much more, but I do want to mention that the strips as they've been going up so far were already completed before the first one went up, so nothing has been influenced by anybody's reactions yet.

This calls into question everything I had come to believe about biology. I'd better tell everyone.
