CAD's really just awful. The art style, the characters, the incredibly crap storyline. No doubt the brother will be his his grooms man and will say something inappropriate at the altar. Crap.

The only reason they open is to expand them so you can see them at proper size, and if it's equal or smaller than the width Kotaku has set for them, there's no reason for them to expand.

Kotaku is a gaming site.
CAD is no longer(or very rarely) a gaming comic.
Therefore, it has no place.
You could at least explain why you keep putting it up despite the hatred for it, the irrelevance of it, etc, if you're not going to stop putting it up.

That said, most people don't read it and just skip to comments to complain about it.
So maybe they should drop it. That way 1/3 of the threads won't be dedicated to tearing down a comic when everyone already knows it sucks.

There's a difference between "not strictly concerned with gaming" and "almost never concerned with gaming."
CAD is the latter, and has been for years. If the strip happens to make a joke or reference that's actually about a video game, it's usually in one of the strips that isn't part of his soap opera storyline.

Maybe Kotaku should just take out the comment section of the comics thread. That would be a better route in my opinion.

I'll take that as confirmation that there's some sort of paid deal here, because I can't think of a single way that would make sense apart from being contractually obligated to post CAD. :\ At the same time I can't imagine buckley makes the money to pay other websites to promote him...and I am sure Kotaku doesn't do that anyway, so I'm truly baffled.

We republish these strips with permission and link to their sites. No other considerations are made.
Whether you or anyone like it or not, we're putting together a comics page here that's meant to be as broadly appealing as possible. There are some 3.1 million monthly readers of Kotaku. Less than 1 percent of them comment on this post. Fewer than that take the time to share their hatred with CAD every week.
If there's a strip here that doesn't appeal to you, move along. It's a buffet. When there's an item on a buffet I don't care for, nothing obligates me to eat it. But I also don't march back to the kitchen to bitch out the chef for the choice of that particular item.

I just want to know why non-gaming comics are posted in the comic section of a gaming site. But nobody wants to tell me.

It's kinda like when I make fun of my friend who's trying to learn Japanese...
"Toyota? Kikoman Mitsubishi, Sukiyaki su..."
It drives her nuts...

Whenever I speak in Vietnamese, my English friends make fun of my bad attempts with the ONLY word they know...
"Oh what dat? You want some phở, man? I give you monay for phở, man!"
10:15 AM
LOL! I wish I still had my Vietnamese friend around, I think we cringed when we went to see Ultraviolet.
Then again...anyone would cringe at Ultraviolet.

Sadly my vietnamese has gone to hell from lack of use :'(

Do not use Kikkoman's name in vain.

But come on d00d, I hate Jonas Brothers too, but at this point, making fun of them is too "cheap of a joke."
Also, here is today's GG Guys.
10:00 AM
I agree, going after the Jonas Brothers is right up there with anything related to Kayne West...
But I lol'd anyway.

The obvious objective is to remove CAD and put something better instead.
But since I don't really know how the selection process happens for Sunday Comics, presenting this as a suggestion.

Another plus: none of those strips require you to read three years of old strips to understand a convoluted, wannabe-soap-opera-style plot to even begin to understand the "jokes."

But I'm pretty damn sure there is absolutely no punchline to Ctrl Alt Del. Does this guy even know how to write? I'm serious, not trying to be incredibly insulting, (but I guess I am) but this guy really doesn't seem to get it. It's unnecessarily wordy, and it's trying to have a plot, which is stupid for a short web comic. And does it even have anything to do with gaming any more? Jeez.

Also (freaking broken edit button D: ) here's a great one.
