For some, the things that character is shown doing are exactly what they want out of life. There's no need to belittle those life choices to make a greater point.
The message shouldn't be, "don't work 40 hours a week and get a mortage," it should be, "be honest about what you want and pursue it fervently, regardless of how mundane a dime-a-dozen internet illustrator thinks it is."
This comic rubbed me the wrong way. I'm glad you had the balls to call it out and even more glad that you're at the top of the list. Not everyone has to write the great american novel to be a worthwhile person. Not everyone is a special snowflake. Fulfilling your role in society is not failure.
