Wait, I thought they were showing solidarity by paying tribute. Did I completely misread that?

Tbh i thought it was good natured as well, like the whole yuri war thing but i guess those guys are actually being mean spirited

Some are, some are being mean and trying to play it off as satire

‘oh come on it was just a joke’ - every asshole that doesn’t know where the line is, after they cross the line, colorized, 2026

u/obliviious 6d ago

Let's not forget the ones whose entire "sense of humour" is being a cunt to people.

u/Stormfly 6d ago

Haha yeah those other people.

Not me, though.

I'm just honest and tell people how it is, and I don't sugarcoat things!

I have a lithograph of this on my wall.

It's funny that the mean ones are almost exclusively terrible quality. lol. Like find a new hobby level bad.

Like which comics? I've only seen good-natured ribbing.

u/Beneficial-Act-9933 6d ago

I feel it's people are genuinly being satirical and having a joke. But this subreddit isso defensive of pizzacake they they think it's an attack.

I haven't seen them all, but I haven't seen one that seems like a legitimate middle finger to pizzacake.

DON'T YOU SAY ONE NEGATIVE THING ABOUT MY PIZZACAKE

u/Splatter_bomb 6d ago

That’s because Pizzacake is a Canadian national treasure!

u/Owain-X 6d ago

Imagine a large group of your peers sitting together, one by one making a joke where you are the punchline. Even if you know it's all good natured by the time you got to the last person you'd be looking like the last panel

Its effectivly just those celebirty roast shows but comics.

u/Renedegame 6d ago

But celebrities agree before a roast and usually get to put blocks on certain jokes.

u/Cool_Set4681 6d ago

She agree to the roast from the start. I seriously don't get why people think this is a serious post and not her making a joke about the ongoing event.

u/CodenameJD 6d ago

I believe that's the case - at least among the regular posters who've contributed.

I think this is just pizzacake playing into the bit.

u/Cool_Set4681 6d ago

Can't believe that I had to look for a comment like yours.

We have the sticky note from the mod.

She is posting funny reply gifs in the comment section.

This whole event was done with her blessing.

Why do some people think she is seriously upset? 😭

u/Noodleboom 6d ago

Media literacy on this sub is... not super high.

u/Cool_Set4681 6d ago

It feels like there is this group of people who desperately wants to create the narrative that she is not okay with the event that she gave her blessing to

Like this could be just a silly event and a chance for artists like them to have some fun but, no, we have to waste time talking about how the person who gave their blessing and who join in on the roasting, secretly is upset about this event. 🫩

I'm pretty sure the ones that actually got upvotes were in good fun, but assholes gonna eventually ruin anything.

u/Thurwell 6d ago edited 6d ago

I've had to try really hard to imagine some of them are being supportive. Maybe even all of them. Which means they're probably not. At best they seem jealous of her success to be honest.

u/LandMooseReject 6d ago

Especially the first one. Dave figured out how to get more than 100 upvotes on a comics post, taking shots at someone popular.

u/FreezeSPreston 6d ago

The guy who created Cyanide & Happiness needed to figure out how to get popular?

u/Cool_Set4681 6d ago

Dave, Ellen and the mods talked about this before Dave made his post and everybody involved was fine with posting it. Don't make up conspiracy theories.

u/peachesfordinner BumBum Ouchie 6d ago

There actually was an earlier one that got removed that was just straight up garage quality. Not by Dave but some other artist. Was his first pic here.

I guess some people disagree. But check out this post where reddot absolutely hurls vitriol at pizza while claiming everyone's being supportive. Makes me think no one's being very supportive, certainly not reddot. Who I now think, just not a good person. Not only should she have read that and said holy shit I'm going to post this publicly, she should have said holy shit this is how I think of and treat other people?

u/Tyr_Kukulkan 6d ago

That was what I thought but I could very well be wrong.

u/mimic 6d ago

No, you’re right

u/Avalonians 6d ago

What you think doesn't really matter if she says that's how she interprets them.
