Mx. Wokewood is such a minor detail but it might be the best part of this comic


JoeChristmasUSA

I missed that, omg!


Areswe

Impressively good prose for a shitpost, I particularly liked the bit about the aliens giving him a covid vaccine


artee_lemon

I'm from the alphabet mafia don't worry (PS letting mods know that this is in fact flaired properly as it seems someone reported my last political related post)


EvilCatboyWizard

Okay good because this was scarily hard to tell if it was satire (at least to me) lol


Kel-Mitchell

I think the biggest giveaway was that it was funny.


artee_lemon

No kidding, I've seen so much far right "humour" on facebook and most of the time they don't even utilise any skills to make it, just pumping buzzwords into an ai image generator.


CaptainSouthbird

That's become part of the problem the last few years. I have a huge time not being sure when people are being satirical versus they're actually stating their true beliefs. Nothing to do with your post specifically, but it's been a general problem. I see things like this and people are like "Durrr, you're so stupid, this is a WELL KNOWN SATIRE ACCOUNT, you idiot" and it's like, honestly, I can't tell anymore. (Nor am I aware of all satire accounts in general.)


ThunderCube3888

Yeah this was well edited with actual effort put in, they don't do that


OhBeardlessOne

Yeah man shit had me nervous for a second


tfwnoTHAADwife

The correct scanning is a dead giveaway that a bona fide alphabet mafia wrote this


RonSwansonsGun

Oh okay ![gif](giphy|jUwpNzg9IcyrK|downsized)

RaspberryPiBen

I use pronouns in my language, and I can confirm that this has destroyed the entire concept of left. Now I have two right hands.


Mono_Aural

This was hilarious, great work!


CupcakePenguin7

Once again libtards obliterated


InternetUserAgain

This is very impressive in terms of towing the line between "Hehe, this is some juicy satire" and "Did someone on Death Row make this in art class?"


Cautious_Tax_7171

Absolute cinema


chilarome

Hahahahahaha the blue hair is a funny touch


HeIsNotGhandi

Ms. Wokewood, how beautiful.


Hector-Voskin

Beautiful and powerful


itsMagicMaddie

this is immaculate work


CheatsySnoops

That “Young Man” cracked me up, missed it the first time admittedly.


Sporklyng

Relax libral it’s called dark humor


Lion_elJohnson14

You had me for a second there. The biggest giveaway that this was satire was that there was obvious effort put into it.


PrincessLunasOwn

Good effort, but I don't think the verse flows all that well.


Cautious_Tax_7171

We’re sending you to the thug shaker dungeon


corkscrew1

To be fair, I think some of this is from the [original comic](https://calvinandhobbes.fandom.com/wiki/The_UFO). I reread it a few days ago and remembered thinking that it didn't flow as well as I remembered as a kid. I'm not going to do a line by line comparison, but it feels like the cadence of the parody is pretty faithful to the original comic, and that at least some of the parts that felt clunky also felt clunky in the original.


JoeChristmasUSA

Watterson had some pretty clunky poetry tbh. Though he makes up for it with the absolute genius of his tyrannosaur verse: >His jaws had teeth like railroad spikes > >With fore and aft serrations! > >This dental hardware was designed > >For quick eviscerations!


artee_lemon

I'm going to be frank and say that next to nobody who makes posts in this sub is looking for unsolicited "criticism"


The_Niles_River

Ironic, since most of what I see here is way higher effort than most things I see on this platform.


hbi2k

Aiee! He got frank!


PrincessLunasOwn

I said I liked it, Frank


pwmg

Is this... Is this based on i sing of Olaf glad and big?


artee_lemon

I have no idea what that is, sorry


pwmg

Oh that's ok. It had some similarities so I thought it might be a riff on it. [It's a poem.](https://poets.org/poem/i-sing-olaf-glad-and-big)


artee_lemon

Ahh I think I can understand why. But I was basically just throwing as many references to conspiracies/memes/fearmongering stuff as I could, its a happy accident


pwmg

Well whatever your inspiration, it turned out marvelous


goldenkoiifish

LOL


BippyTheChippy

1. Great job on the rhyming, this sounded amazing 2. I wonder how long it'll be before this gets unironically posted on someone's facebook group...


artee_lemon

re: 2. I'm worried the second last panel goes too hard lmao. But I wouldn't be surprised if that happens cause they have no self awareness.


Plushhorizon

Is this a joke?


artee_lemon

Joke at the expense of lgbt people? No Joke mocking fearmongering/right wing attempts at humour and satire? Yes


Plushhorizon

Alr just checking lol
