      "Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man." lebowski meme

      an opinion millions of people disagree with :)

      could i ask your approximate age? and/or if you remember approximately what year you first saw this comic?

      i would guess that someone who doesn’t find this comic funny, not to mention historically important, must not be old enough to remember the time when most people hadn’t been online yet.

      if you’re curious, read the two links in this post. i think they answer your question.
