I just discovered the daily dinosaur comics over at Quantz.com. They're far funnier than they have a right to be. It's just the same six panels over and over again, but with different captions.

There's a whole story line about the forgotten homoesexual relationship between the T-Rex and the Utharaptor, but the funniest by far are the Compressed Film Comics, especially their Jurassic Park redux, complete with feminist interpretation, and witty use of the term "castration anxiety."

For sheer zany absurdity, the comic for the easily confused gets a prize.

But the best part is that in every single episode, the T-Rex smashes a house, a car, and a little tiny human being.

Raahr!

I found them because Joey Comeau of A Softer World announced his guest comic there in his newsletter. And I found A Softer World through Christine Castro's site, and I found Christine's site because it's one of only three that Annalisa links to (mine being one). Christine's site is now one of my regular stopping points.

Ah, I love the Web.

Raahr!
