I used to get so mad at my grandparents for calling them that. They were COMICS, and it was Very Important to call them by the proper name.

I like to think I’ve loosened up a bit since I was a kid.

Yeah, but we’re so much luckier today with options online. I remember there were definitely tiers of the comics and I read them in a particular order, from the crappy soap-opera one that wasn’t funny through (oh I’m gonna piss people off now) the also-crappy ones like Family Circus and Marmaduke and… was it called Love Is? They were always so hokey… then saving ones like Far Side and Calvin & Hobbes for last :)

I did the same thing with food which is why I’m still fat. :(
