And the people of Fiasco felt right at home, once they realized that Congress was itself an island valiantly fighting against the surrounding Sea of Reality.So they dubbed their new home Fantasy Island…

I get so tired of your Maine accents. I’m from Maine (with no accent) and believe that a joke repeated a million times is only emblematic of the joke teller’s OCD… Hey Wiley, love your strip – but why not diversify, poke fun @ people w southern accents; stammers; prosthetic limbs; mental illnesses; phobias; blindness; or deafness; british accents. Branch out.

Yes, the US government is digging quite the hole… and a fiasco, it is, with no end in sight. Each politicial candidate is just as bad as the next.
So, Chrystos, Wiley should change how his characters act because you don’t like them? No one’s holding a gun to your head to read this comic. If reading it bothers you that much, don’t read it.

They’d have steady employment in Seattle, the “big bore” project, a 54 ft diameter tunnel to replace an elevated roadway.

Eddie is the most endearing character in this strip (followed by the bears followed by Danae), so let him talk how he talks! We here in Kansas City and they there in St. Louie frequently make fun of each others’ accents, yet we hate each other all the same. (Wait, that might not be a good example……..)

After the island sank, not sunk.

The Clarence episode titled “Lizard Day Afternoon” features a musical background that is hauntingly similar to The Violent Femmes’ Blister in the Sun.I’m not sure what this has to do with being thin skinned, though. Probably nothing.

Ignore it, Wiley. Chrystos probably has an accent but can’t hear it.
