The Adventures of Dr. McNinja

Post by Josiah »

Posting for Gar since he's on vacation. This week's comic The Adventures of Dr. McNinja.

I really don't know anything about it but Gar suggested reading its definition on TV Tropes. If you can pull yourself away from TV Tropes long enough to read the comic itself, I'm also supposed to tell you that most of the comics have alt-text if you hover your cursor over them for a second.

Wow, another comic I've read already, that's two for two.
I really liked the tennis temple of doom, It even made a reference to one of my favorite shows as a kid.I also loved the invisible rocket launcher.
This is my RP Forum, Tales of Symphonia Adventures, or ToSA for short. Please take a look?

And I want the Gorilla + Rocketlauncher > Ninja shirt. I love this comic! Oh, and I'm going to have to say I like the family background arc, the training arc for the kid, and some other arc I forgot about the best. But I really have to recommend reading all of it. In fact, I've already had a couple people at VT read this series, and they've loved it.

I just finished the Punch Dracula arc and I'm not entirely sure what to make of this comic. The art is pretty good and it's certainly unique. The plot is...utterly ridiculous but in a rather amusing way. So far I haven't found it all that funny but the sheer craziness of the plot lines (Paul Bunion Diease, Dracula's moon base, etc) has kept me reading.

The storyline of this comic is just so ridiculous, it's rather amazing. I find the humor really amusing at plenty points, and even when it's not being hilarious, it's being very "wtf just happened?!", which is amusing in it's own way. And he's a doctor. And a ninja.

Overall, kind of epic. Need to finish archive binging, kthx.

This is absolutely hilarious. Where does the author come up with this stuff? I haven't had much time to read it (wish I did, though), only got through the first story arc with the Paul Bunyan disease.

Now whenever someone's talking about McDonalds and says something along the lines of "do you know what's in that?", I have to restrain myself from saying "Well, I know the chicken McNuggets are 26 percent disobedient robots" :-D.

I'm going to read this. I haven't yet, but I'm going to. Definitely. So this is like my in advance post saying that future me has read this.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.
