Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for March 21, 2012

Or Elbow Bending, EB.

Violence on the street, battlefield, in the home: BAD.

Violence in a cartoon, in a book, in a comic: NOT REAL.

Most of us can tell the difference and those who can’t will usually be aggressive by nature.

Good for you – sometimes, principles are worth standing up for…

We must stand up for our principles in real life…a web site is not an actual place. If you wrote to the site managers or started a campaign to have the site changed or taken down, you might be successful. Then a other one would take its place. We have to be realistic and “better the enemy you know than the devil you don’t.”

Let’s stop complaining about the comics and start to enjoy them.

And how is all that PC working out for you, huh?Furthermore, diarrhea is the more accepted for of spelling of the word.

It’s not just about feminism, is it?And violence in comics – a bit of ‘splat’ never hurt anybody, I admit – the question is more about the way it is expressed.

PC is necessary to protect society from all forms of hatred, racial, sexual, religious and violence

Really?

An armed society is a polite society.

Some of you are giving me diarrhea! I don’t need PC to know right from wrong. Or to know that cartoons and comics are fiction, not real life, and yes I find them entertaining. Esp the old Warner Brothers cartoons, violence and all. Andrea, you should be more worried about what is shown on television, movies, and over the internet these days, as opposed to what is in this comic strip.

Bullcookies…PC is the lazy person’s way of dealing with everything you just listed (and I am having some trouble with the last sentence – proofread much?) If you had said Education is the key to dealing with the ills of society, i may have found some respect for your opinion, but your blind worship of out-of-control PC (not to mention your apparent approval of 9 Chickweed Lane, one of the more pompous, pretentious and affected strips i have ever had the displeasure of reading) just affirms my reading of your own character. Oh, and if you DO have friends, and you find they all share your opinions, then trust me, you don’t have any friends…

Feel free to leave at anytime. You will NOT be missed.

Lately Andy seems bummed out. I must be those AA meetings.

When you said to @gmartin997 that ‘diarrhoea’ was the “correct” spelling, you were almost half-right. Actually, the dictionary says that both spellings are correct, but lists ‘diarrhea’ first. The preferred spelling is always listed first. (What does this have to do with Andy Capp?)

Wow Flo… I’m impressed!

I couldn’t put it better myself.

LOL xxx

and to all of you people arguing with each other, i must say……

@pcolli, You’re right my friend let’s just enjoy them not complain about them.

Andy Capp 1963

Andy Capp never misses a chance when he sees an attractive woman!

His womanizing days are over now.

every one foget its only a comic strips andy best ever

that’s an absurd point of view, cartoon violence not cause children to become violent, I’ve enjoyedcountless hours of it and to date have harmed noone in the last half century of life. I also never smoked,though enjoyed many cartoons the depict smoking (hint, if your parents smoke or are violent in the home, yyou likely will be too). PC is not necessary for anything, we need to quit pandering to psychological marshmallows.

to all those who are not fond of violence, how do you feel about sports? especially american football, rugby and boxing?
