What Spring Holidays Are All About [COMIC]
SpaceAvalanche is one of our favorite comics on the web, and we're thrilled to have them on the site. They update every Monday and cover topics like Batman, Star Trek and the world-ending almost as frequently as we do. This week, we see what Spring Holidays are all about.
Waste the rest of your afternoon over at SpaceAvalanche.
Oh dear. It took me far too long to understand this one.
ReplyI love the religious folk arguing down there almost as much as I love the militant atheists who are obviously trying too hard to be edgy rather than actually expressing their opinion.
ReplyUgh, I can't stand either of them.
Well, at least you found a way to be superior to both of them.
I don't understand how people couldn't see the ending coming. Also leprechauns have nothing to do with Paddy's Day. They only exist in the minds of American tourists. He supposedly got rid of all those damn snakes we had in Ireland. There's no snakes here now... It must be true.
ReplyIreland never had a climate for snakes.
Actually snakes is just a metaphor for pagans. Saint Pattie drove out & sloughtered thousands of pagans because they didn't believe the same invisible man in the sky as he did.
So wait. Is this pro- or anti-Catholic?
ReplyIt's neither—it's just a comedic interpretation of the many different ideologies that lay claim to holidays. Not everything is about the sides of a conflict; some people prefer to comment on the conflict itself.
Well said. I hate how people try to take sides on everything, even if there are no real sides.
Even for a PK, I find this pretty damned funny.
ReplyMakes me think of the video store in "Orgasmo". Girl is poking around in the Religious Movie section, featuring Jesus of Nazareth, The 10 Commandments, Last Temptation of Christ, then, Jesus Scissorhands, and ultimately, Pulp Jesus (the coverart was basically subbing in him next to Jules, .45's and all). Awesome.
So THAT'S what happened Sunday just gone. I was too drunk to remember....
ReplyIt would have been funnier if Christ and Patrick had waited for the hedonists to pass out and then drawn dicks on their faces.
ReplyNice one!
ReplyAlso: All you fools who are arguing are idiots
Yawn.

TROLL
A bad troll at that 0/10
Acutally, Ejigantor is pretty spot-on.
Actually, choke on my balls sweetalker.
These 12 little squares of pictures failed to amuse me! i shall quickly inform everyone of this lest they laugh!
Yeah, he didn't like this comic, so he's obviously a troll! Let's all mock him!
I don't think he's a troll because he didn't like the comic; I didn't either. The reason he is a troll is because he had to be the a*****e that made a comment insulting it as well as the site it's on, which isn't even the site that made the comic.
That comic looks accurate enough for me.
ReplyI'm not a religious person, but this is so true.
Reply.....fail....
ReplyNow THAT, I didn't see coming XD
ReplyNice one, Space Avalanche!
Soooo true xD
Replythis is great XD
ReplyJust clearing this up because so many people are being dumb. Thats Jesus and SAINT PATRICK, not jesus and the pope. The pope doesn't have a spring holiday. Saint Patrick is dressed like a bishop in green, which he was. Also Boondock saints is awesome and Catholics are chill nice people who are generally hated by bigots. Happy Easter!

Yes, because if there is one exception to a stereotype, the exact opposite must be true for all.
Your comment is probably going to start yet another religious argument. Happy f**king Easter.
shinyfan is my hero
Oh, yes, catholics are really nice people. I remember such fun bits about them, like the Inquisition, and the dark ages, and the crusades! that was so much healthy fun.
There is no god, and religions exist only to control people, keep the pockets of a few really full, and to allow priests to have fun with your kids. The sooner we realize this true, the sooner we'll have a better world. If religions had died with the Roman Empire, we would be f**king exploring outer space right now.
Almafuerte, your ideas are fascinating, original, and well thought out. Here I thought the space program was in a lull because trips to the moon are woefully impractical during a struggling economy. Turns out it's because of the religions.
Almafuerte, you do realize that there are are religions other than Christianity, don't you?
So the long haired, blue eyed hippie guy in the white robe is Jesus? He doesn't look like any Palestinian I know. LOL.
Catholics do tend to be good enough people, the problem is the catholic CHURCH.
Yes, all Catholics are good people... that's why the IRA mainly spent their time sending petitions to the British government and never hurt a single innocent civilian.
...when will people put aside their personal biases and realise that ALL religions are full of nutters and arseholes.
Most Xians are like most Jews like most Muslims like most Buddhists...bla bla bla. Most major tennets are the same, just differentiated by the cultural thumbprint on religion 'x'.
It's the dicks that manipulate it for their own gain that sour the gestalt of an otherwise good institution or school of thought. Those are the ones that get face time on Fox/CNN/etc., not the ones busting their asses w/ AIDS relief, food aid, literacy programs, rape/crisis centers, etc...apparently, that s**t just isn't media-worthy vs. some poorly educated nobody that is hijacking points 'x' or 'y' of the Torah, Koran, or Bible and selectively editing out all the other bits that don't jibe w/ the 3rd party agenda. Can't cherry pick existentialism to suit frail egos and feeble ppl's comfort levels. But you can edit the f**k out of any recorded footage though...
the problem with all religions usually is because of its extremists. if they do something wrong, they will destroy your religion's image forever.and every religion has them.
And the path of the righteous man is beset on all sides, by the inequities of the selfish, and the tyranny of evil men. And blessed is he, who in the name of charity and goodwill shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger, those who attempt poison and destroy my brothers, and you will know my name is THE LORD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Requieace en pache. (Don't care how it's actually spelled)
Reply Hide All See All 4 RepliesI do not speak Italian good but I'm fairly certain that what you just said is pronounced something like "Requiassay en pakay."
I think what you're looking for is closer to "Requiase en pace."
also lol at ACII
requiescat in pace-May he rest in Peace in Latin.
You mean italian.
Also no Latin expert but I think the "c" in "pace" is a "ch" sound
Well then, that ending threw mw off lol
