Angriest Rice Cooker Director’s Cut 65–On Reason
Well, here’s a Director’s Cut post that went up late because I couldn’t think of anything that I wanted to say. I’m sure that there’s points I could be making about “skeptics” and science and my own complicated feelings about the whole issue. But for once I honestly feel that this comic would be better standing on its own. I feel it does work, although it might skate a little closer to revealing my views on a subject than I really prefer in comics It happens sometime. I guess part of the key for me was not to let it happen so often that people got the impression that every comic expresses myviewpoint–either directly or by mocking views I disagree with. I think I managed to keep to that line most of the time. There are a few examples where I didn’t, but I think this one kept just this side of the line. Mostly because I don’t think you could come up with a coherent idea of what I actually believe from the comic–just a vague sense of things I don’t respect. You Be The Judge:

I think this is one of my favorites. It reminds me of a situation when someone tried to prove to me that there were no absolutes. I asked him if he was absolutely sure of his position. The conversation went downhill from there. I like to play the devils advocate in debates, so it annoys me when people act like there position is obviously superior, when in reality…well, I think the comic says it all.
