No one's ever done the Atlas Shrugged thing, either. Because it's fucking retarded.

Good for you, you know your history. Okay, that was a bit of a joke from one of my comics, but I am serious now. There will be a braking point in which the people won't stand for all these changes in the rules and their freedoms being cut back and they will drop out of the system. It might be the one-percent pulling an Atlas Shrugged and moving their goods and services elsewhere, or some of the working poor moving away from the big cities, fleeing to the desert (or at least the Mid/Southwest) to seek better opportunities there. They don't want to feed the tax monster. Those left behind will just sort of become dispirited, go on the dole, and stop functioning altogether. Remember when Ted Kennedy said that the only reason socialism didn't work was because he wasn't in charge of it? ObamaCare may work in a little socialist bubble, but obviously it isn't practical in real life. No one in time immemorial has stepped forth with the "magic bullet" (my apologies to the gun control crowd) to make these ideas work.

Canada and Australia totally don't have their shit together. Also living in the desert is fucking retarded. If mommy ever gives you enough money to live the basement you might learn this.

I'm sorry, "live" the basement? Even if my house had a basement, dingus, that would make no sense.

Pretty sure anyone with common sense would infer that I meant "live in" the basement. Innocent mistake. But hey why focus on real points others make when you can pick apart a single grammatical error. Only a dingus would avoid the real issues.

Junior knows he can't refute any of the points people make that poke holes in his conspiracy theories and regurgitated Fox News rhetoric, so all that's left for him to do is nitpick and make dumb jokes (no doubt grinning smugly the whole time, thinking, "That'll show those brainwashed liberal sheeple!").

"Living in the basement" is also a figure of speech that doesn't necessarily mean to be literal. He would know that if he were caught up with our slang; poor mofo is all confused with our chocolate rain and rickrollin'.
 
DrChristianTroy, that is a slanderous slander against innocent Jonathan. He doesn't sleep in his mother's basement, he spoons with her like Chorb.

I have to wonder, what's up with that AJM studios forum the Iconoclast kept linking to earlier in the thread, claiming they loved his atrocious comic? I've searched through it a little more, and I've noticed a few odd things about it. First of all, it has weird sudden spurts of activity, usually most of the people viewing it being guests, yet the posts still being rather recent. I've also noticed that it's always the same people posting all of the time, most of which have generic avatars.

I can only assume it's either a small forum that acts as a hugbox, full of people as insane as the Iconoclast who whine about the EVIL LIBERALS constantly, or it's a forum created by the Iconoclast himself where he uses a bunch of sockpuppets to agree with his own nutty politics bullshit and praise his own comic.

If the Iconoclast himself has an answer for this, I'd be more than interested in hearing. :lol: I'll admit, I'm not exactly expecting a truthful response.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume it's the first option since there's a Video Games forum which is something Icono probably doesn't have much knowledge of in order to fake. Of course, there's a simpler explanation: those who were praising his comic were just being polite.

I'm not quite certain he knows what a figure of speech is. He's not the shiniest boot in the line if you know what I mean.

Shopkeeping would be nice, but nothing big-box--maybe a little store or kiosk in the mall.

You really aren't in a position to be very picky.

Uh, hello...have you ever heard of post-graduate work? A lot of students go in for a doctoral program. Some finish their education and get jobs on-campus. Many grad students get on-campus apartments, but a dorm room was just fine for me.

Grad students don't live in dorms. In fact, undergrads usually move out of them after their sophomore year.

Yes, you need to get back in shape and see a doctor, but also about your mental state.

I've browsed it a bit...it seems to be mostly conservatives, and a few moderates and liberals who like to mix things up. But, the conservatives have told him to STFU about his personal problems and digital TV and stuff because it makes them look bad by association.

Communism is retarded but the only thing you will get from allowing unfettered capitalism is a very broken economy. Why have a consumer base tomorrow when you can take everything they have today? Crazy unchecked capitalism is what crashed the economy and why there aren't as many job opportunities today. To balance capitalism you need some socialism. Not a socialist government. Not communism. But enough to protect the economy so that you can make money next year as well.

There is no ideal way of running a country but there are ways that you can sustain a decent economy.

Once again. There aren't more rules now. You are just an adult and therefore expect to take responsibility for yourself. It doesn't matter who is in office you will still be expected to pull your weight.

Why won't you answer my questions?

Looks like there is a little bro, looking at what @thatsforubama has found, seems to have some sort of a record too. But as far as how terrible he actually is vs. how he has been described by @The_Iconoclast remains to be seen. I'm going to err on the side of "Icono is blowing it way out of proportion and leaving out several key facts when speaking of his younger brother blowing up on him."
Click to expand...
To me, Iconoclast's derangement seems more indicative that his claims of having an abusive brother are true, not less. Now, there's always two sides to every story, and I don't buy the assertion that his brother's problems are a result of him being a "marijuana junkie." I think they both probably crazy-in-the-minds of the same variety, something that runs in the family

I don't even get why that was a problem. I typed 'you' instead of 'your' but CV is a perfectly acceptable way to refer to a curriculum vitae.

He either doesn't know what a curriculum vitae is or he's just being difficult.

Although, in the US (not sure where you are from) "curriculum vitae" is a term usually restricted for resumes in academia.

CatParty I got to stick up for Iconoclast on this one, the correct term for him is pedophile brony furry and that why he's not answering you. You had it backwards, if you had written the right way round he would have answered you because thats what his mother calls him.
