The Oatmeal: cartoonist, martyr, man.
It’s been said a thousand times before but I think it bears repeating since pathetic slobs like The Oatmeal still don’t get it: when you make unfunny, offensive jokes about people whose voice is repeatedly silenced and then accuse people of censoring you because they don’t like it, it makes you an even bigger asshole. Then again, when your only sacred cow is “your art” (which in the oatmeal’s case is bland, pedantic, and lazy) of course it’s easier to be willfully obtuse.

Think your rape joke is funny? Ask one of the five women around you. They’ll tell you how funny it is.

I love the Oatmeal but this did not sit right with me. And then removing it and citing his own generosity? What a prick.

I really don’t get the whole Internet social justice police thing where we need to be chastised and or shamed for not using a word “correctly” or “sensitively.”
I don’t read the oatmeal but he has a point IMO, minus the pity party act.
