Eamo

Just stumbled here from Digg.

I’m not sure if this was the actual intention, given the “legibility” of the street tag, but it looks like it says “Eamo”, which (here in Ireland) is short for Eamon (my name), an Irish name, often translated to English as Edmund or sometimes Edward.

If that is in fact the case, then subtlety is clearly your strong point, Mr. Artist.

Hmmm… if you like this comic, you should see The Wackness which came out in theaters two weeks ago. Great indie movie, and this comic basically stole it’s joke/premise from the movie. Nearly verbatim, too.

PHIL’S REPLY: I’ll have to stop you right there Mr. Ocean.

Firstly, I haven’t seen this movie you speak of, so before you go accusing people of stealing ideas, maybe ponder the concept that it is possible for two people to have the same idea independently of each other.

Secondly, I could even email you EXACTLY my train of thought as to how this idea came about if that will make you stop you tossing about accusations of plagiarism.

And thirdly, your Dad’s music sucks! Especially “Carribean Queen”.

GrammarGeek

Rock Chalk:

I’m no copyeditor, but, strictly speaking, and in the context of this cartoon, I think you’re correct.

Under different circumstances this use could be fine. In prose, if a preceeding question requires a one word answer, then such use would certainly be appropriate.

For example:

“Who killed Rebecca?” he asked.

“Edward.”

It’s not unusual to have a single word sentence containing a noun (or a pronoun, or a verb, or an adverb, etc.). It’s all about what comes before and after and what impact the writer desires that one word to have on the reader. (Note: Microsoft Word, the reigning champion of grammar nazis, is notorious for labeling perfectly acceptable sentences as fragments.)

Anyway, that’s my take on it. Language, even in its written form, is fluid, and the rules governing it can be bent (and even broken) in the service of expressing ideas. And the idea in this cartoon is brilliant and hysterical.

Geek out.

PHIL: And do you know why Edward killed Rebecca?
(Ahem)
Because the bitch be serving his Earl Grey COLD, dawg!

Edward’s being consciously archaic. If you look at signage from the 19th century, it was considered correct to put a period at the end of words on signs: “LIVERY STABLE.” “TANNERY.” “BAKERY.”

So he is right as rain, in addition to being a badass.

Haha! Brilliant.

I was just writing about how much I love having great graffiti in the city I live in and I tell you what, Edward’s skills would be a great addition.

I really dont understand the supposed humor of this cartoon….

How is this funny?

Is there suppose to be subtle humor in here somewhere or is the whole joke based upon the fact that someone tagged a wall in proper english….cuz thats not really funny if you understand various types of communication. (notice how i used the l33t txt speech of ‘cuz’)

Dude, if somebody needs to explain to you why this cartoon is funny (not to mention genius), then you should quit reading cartoons altogether.

Reminds me a bit of *1985*, a dystopia by Burgess with Labour in the place of the English Socialist Party. Teenage street gangs rebelled against the dumbed-down government schooling curriculum (”Worker’s English” included) by teaching themselves Latin.
