Fair enough. If it IS satire, it's so well done that it's TOO well done. :lulz:

I don't think it really qualifies as satire... it's just exaggeration for comedic purposes.

I didn't see the humour until the arguing and fact-checking and bitching spilled all over the place including Forbes and HackerNews. Then it became a hilarious troll. Regardless of what Mr Oatmeal's views on the topic really are or not.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not gonna stay mad at you or carry a grudge or anything like that. I'll still have beers with you anytime. But what you're saying ITT is some bullshit.

Fuck that.  If I see you I'M GOING TO FUCK YOUR FACE UP.

Remember how I said you kinda looked like that kid?  Well everyone's going to be like yo ECH looks like that dude from those horror movies after EoC SLICED THE SHIT OUT OF HIM.

I'd buy you a beer and it'd be the worst goddamned beer anyone's ever drank.  IT'LL PROBABLY BE FROM MAINE.

But yeah seriously I was having a very, very bad day when I wrote that post and I didn't mean it to come across quite so douchey.

If you want to get ECH awful beer you should not get it from Maine.  Most of our microbrews are actually pretty decent.  Not saying they are the best or anything, but certainly ranking above "worst". 

Also, they are certainly better than Edison who is a gigantic tool.  ;)

I was fucking around.  Allagash is from Maine, and they make what might be some of the best beers in the States.

Allagash makes some AWESOME beers! Liberal Cup brewery in Hallowell is pretty dope too. Most of the rest of Maine's microbrews are, IMO, overrated. but I'm probably just spoiled these days by living in PDX.

And I'm glad we're on the same page, man. No worries and no hard feelings!

Going by this whiny response, I'm guessing it wasn't satire.

I thought the response was funny, too.  :lulz: BTW, you people need to definition of the word "satire". Comedy by exaggeration is not the same thing as satire. There was nothing even vaguely "satirical" about that comic, and nobody claimed it was satire. It was HYPERBOLE. That is different from satire.
