1. First off, it’s an oldie, a rerun, something to post while I work on production of the four Beardo books. If you were one of my regular readers, you probably would’ve caught that. Or you could’ve deduced it was old by the REALLY LARGE TYPE that is indicative of an older era of Beardo when I had to cater to smaller print.
2. This – like much of my comic – was based off a real interaction I had. When someone acts ridiculous, be they conservative or liberal, it may make it into my strip. I’ve made fun of all types of people, both parties during the election, even Benjamin Franklin’s wackiness has been made fun of in Beardo. (all of this is in the archives) Saying “left wing loons” and “libtards” though are definitely polarizing statements.
3. To Tim Tribbett, this comment “I am wounded by your clever wit. How shall I ever go on? Actually Beardo has a fairly small number of viewers so I betting Dan does care a tad when he loses one. Now, run along little libtard” is mean on several levels, uninformed, and hopefully does not become a standard of conduct on the Beardo page.
4. Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion. But can we at least be civil about it? It’s a comic, and a free one at that.
5. By the way, it’s a bummer as a creator to see that one of the few times I get a large number of comments, it’s only out of hatred, and not out of simple enjoyment of a comic.
6. Thanks to the readers who remember what this is, one comic of thousands that they just happen to enjoy.

She sounds a lot like some of the more unhinged commenters on other parts of GC.

Maybe she should consider therapy.

You’ve captured a type we all have to put up with one time or another. You do it so well!

“Bye Beardo” = “I will come back in two hours to whinge some more.”

I’m just a bit curious why the text is so, er, huge.
It actually is harder to read, because it’s all mashed together.

I wonder if she is in denial about having a mental condition?

Wow, everyone take a deep breath. Some thoughts.
