Stopped being funny a while ago[ Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#6)

Scott Adams stopped being consistently funny a while ago. He still has his moments (The dual monitor bit came out just as I got a computer similarly equipped), but most of the strip has become somewhat bizarre, political, or just not funny. It's also an aggravating site, when reading from the comics.com web site, Dilbert is one of two strips from which you cannot navigate to the next strip. Peanuts is the other one, but it's still fun even though it is re-running 40+ year-old strips.

Peanuts lets you get to other strips on comics.com by selecting from the comics.com menu that still appears on peanuts.com, there is no "next" button to take one to the next comics.com in the series. Dilbert, however, doesn't even provide that option, you have to navigate around the dilbert web site to run through the series.
