Re: [2012-Mar-22] Not enough panels again
Jokes aren't funny if they're explained. It's simple comedic formula, subvert expectations and require thought to get the joke. Most of the time when zach adds more panels he ends up just straight up explaining the joke.

JonnyMac, very meta what you just did. Overexplaining what overexplaining is.

But greencrayon, Judas killed himself after Jesus died. Nice expansion otherwise (do prefer the single panel though).

Oh yeah, then how did he start Judas Priest??Judas wrote:But greencrayon, Judas killed himself after Jesus died. Nice expansion otherwise (do prefer the single panel though).
Also, according to Acts, Judas didn't commit suicide; he fell headfirst in a field and his body fucking exploded. Both versions of his death are canonical, which is a big problem for scholars who maintain that everything in the Bible is the literal truth. There are other accounts of his death (including one that states that Judas was crucified) but only two of them are in the Bible.

Have to poke my head in here to note, with some amusement, that this actually isn't that big a stretch; there *is* an apocryphal Gospel in which the source of Judas' grudge is the fact that the ointment Mary Magdalen used to wash the feet of Jesus cost three hundred pieces of silver, and as his chamberlain he was due ten percent. (It's also stated that this is the jar that once held the foreskin of the infant Jesus, so a world of ew.) This is why the apocryphal Gospels are full of awesome.

The apocryphal gospels are fun, eh? My favourites are infancy gospels because they're just Jesus abusing his power and getting into all sorts of trouble. Like the one where he used the rainbow as a slide, and then his friends tried but because they weren't divine they went right through it and died. And Mary lectured him so he brought everyone back to life and apologized.

And I in turn admire your ability to satirize Zach's tendency to make useless panels.Sprinkles wrote:JonnyMac, very meta what you just did. Overexplaining what overexplaining is.

I'm kinda hoping you register just so you can get banned for triple-posting.
Being kinky is when you tickle your girlfriend's anus with a feather, being perverted is when you bypass that hassle and just start humping chickens.

I hope he gets banned for that stupid abbreviation of something. It took me several seconds to figure out what the hell he was saying.Dane Raider wrote:I'm kinda hoping you register just so you can get banned for triple-posting.

I didn't even realize that was an abbreviation of some sort. I just assumed he was an idiot.
