Lol.

Ignore the people that tell you to take his down - it's funny!

And besides - all the ones getting offended are prob the same ones that would have no trouble joking about Australia's water crisis.

to some it is, but it happened so long ago unless they experienced it themselves they shouldn't really be complaining over it. its just a silly joke turned into a silly comic to help brighten a grim reality. nothing more nothing less. besides theres been far worse insults involving history.

Maf-Mafeya0291 In reply to Allenby [2007-07-08 12:04:08 +0000 UTC]

I have a lot more to say, but you know can't be bothered.
If it's just a silly joke what harm will it do to forget the comic strip?
This is like getting Tony Blair to apologize for the whole going to war with Iraq thing o.- don't know if you know about that stuff though.

Anyone mind looking at any of my work? I need good tutorials (need to get better at colouring and lineart in photoshop and imageready and stuff), know which is best to use?

Random comment once again...getting impatient O_o

Seems kind of a pointless comic.

I was a taught a few weeks before I finished secondary school, that they couldn't grow any crops in their soil apart from potato or something.


Yeesh I wish I never read this comic aloud, my stupid brother's being a pain as usual "Oh the Ireland had all kind of food apart from potatoes, they had goat, and shit and shit, the British just made up the story about the potato famine"

I don't care what's true, he didn't exactly travel back in time to prove anything, he attacks everything, just to be a dick head-he's 6 years older than me...any reason why he's a neurotic asshole?

Sorry for posting a random comment >x(

It would be funny if so many of the Ireland population didn't starve to death ya know >.>

WaterMasterZita In reply to ??? [2007-07-07 08:32:40 +0000 UTC]

Half of me is slightly insulted because I'm Irish and my people really suffered during that time, but the other half is laughing its ass off because it's so funny and that's probably what happened.
In the end, 5 out of 5 for humor, 5 out of 5 for art, nice job!

Dude, I'm Irish, and I laughed my ass OFF cause it's true! Everyone who thinks you should take this down are just those prissy people who think that ANY jokes involving races other than their own is racism or sterotyping.

XDD Good on ya for keeping it up!

The potato's face cracks me up!
Even though you say you haven't put much effort into this, 'tis better than what I can do!

***

The scary thing about this is that I told my dad about the famine in Ireland (yesterday when you uploaded this) once I saw this. Then, about a couple of hours later my dad told me to watch the TV. Then I saw a programe about this! (Did you know that it was at its worst in 1848?).
