"Remeber when someone blew up the WTC and we didn't do anything, and now we're attacked every week by some angry Canadian prog-rock group?"

I saw the guy who makes these comics at a Mcsweeneys reading once. If you ever get the chance, you gotta see him read these...its a riot! He uses an overhead projector and reads the comics.super duper funny.

This is good. I've always liked the Filing Techniques strips. Reminded me so much of some work situations.

Brash, bitter, and, yes, funny.

It would have been much funnier, though, if he'd used clip art images of talking plants instead of clip art of people. Also, you don't have to pay union scale to clip art of plants so he could have had more than two images.

has anybody noticed the expression un-american making the rounds as if it was an insult? The world is full of un-americans, everybody who isn't a US citizen. ok, back to the fun.

Page 8. Get Your Voltr On. And you're welcome, Miguel. I've set up a little bot that lets me know when the site gets updated, and now it's become my routine to update MeFi afterward.

Page 9. I'm slipping. This one has been out for a while. I'm getting a little tired of this. So unless there's a gut-bustingly funny one in the future, I think will retire from my position as MetaFilter's official updater of Get Your War On. Thank you, and good night.
