Okay.

Homestuck.

Explain to me why people like it so much. And explain to me how the hell people get into it in the first place.

It is fucking EVERYWHERE I GO ON THE INTERNET now. And it is making me crazy.

The only response I have gotten so far is "because it's awesome!!11" which isn't an answer that helps at all.

Yes. I didn't get very far because it made my head hurt.

[kyouketsusha]

No, not really. Mostly because I hear from even people that are really into HS that the first few... I dunno what to call them, arcs? Seasons? are really boring. So I'm just curious how they got through all the boring shit.

I was in to Problem Sleuth way back when that was running, but when Homestuck started I just kinda... stopped reading. I dunno why. I've kind of been meaning to give it a go one of these days, but once one of his things has been going for a while it's kind of... daunting.

So I can't really speak for it because I'm not sure how it actually is, although I did like Problem Sleuth. I could see if someone started reading at the beginning and just read the new stuff every day, they could have trudged through the supposed boring parts and now find themselves really enjoying it.

I know I'm still reading XKCD because it's still in My Morning Coffee, even though I think it's gotten really shitty as of late. Some of us can be quite the creatures of habit.

I like XKCD, but I don't read very many webcomics.

TELL ME ABOUT IT (except don't, because I don't actually give a shit!)
