When you to the polls you have to show them video evidence that you spend your mornings reading the business section of the newspaper and smoking a pipe like a very clever grown up or they write "stupid baby" on your ballot and invalidate your vote.

I'm having the last panel inscribed on my tombstone. COMIC ◆ www.smbc-comics.com/comic/break PATREON ◆ www.patreon.com/ZachWeinersm... STORE ◆ smbc-store.myshopify.com
4-panel SMBC comic update. A man is walking happily, saying "Welp, time to have a beer and wank for three hours." He stops himself, saying "WAIT A SEC. WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE?" The man then turns to a robot and tells it to tackle those tasks, with the robot confirming "initiating... chug and tug..." In the next panel, the man is seen leaning over a stack of paperwork, thinking to himself "Finally, free for more toil."

And so we decided to prove how morally superior we were by shooting a man in a wheelchair. Excuse me? No no, it’s not what you think. We let kids watch it.

Socrates said the unexamined life isn't just bad—it's not worth living. That's why I developed PlatoGPT. Everyone deserves a rich inner life of introspection and interrogation, but who has time for that boring self-reflection?👎😴 Now for a mere $40 a month PlatoGPT will self-reflect for you!

Booth at the End maybe shouldn't count, since S1 is miles better than S2, but whatever, it's my weird pick so I'm keeping it. Season 1 of the Punisher (or at least all but its last episode, which is fine but not nearly as good as the rest) would be my major American franchise addition

Kill Boberly @billcoberly.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
in no particular order, my answer to this. I limited myself to shows I've seen every episode of, and there are some heavy-hitters I have really enjoyed I just haven't finished yet (Mad Men, Barry, Archer, Fargo, Friday Night Lights, etc.) some of which would probably be here if I'd seen all of them.
NYT TV show thing, my top 10 shows: Firefly, 30 Rock, Breaking Bad, Better Call Sault, Doctor Who, Chernobyl, Booth at the End, Interview with the Vampire, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Good Wife. In no particular order.
