No, actually Trump WON the debate. Because he lied about pets getting eaten. Masterful strategy.

Dilbert always sucked. I feel like it's like 90s Big Bang Theory in comic form. "Look, I'm a nerd just like you guys!"
i watched the dilbert animated show and it was hilarious. he only wrote two episodes of it though.
also i don't think it was about being a nerd. it was about being a normal dude in a corporate world where everyone seems incompetent, dumb or crazy. it's basically the office.
It was supposed to be written for nerds, like Big Bang Theory. The Office was not.
Maybe you forget the specific type of humor present in Dilbert comics? But most layman would not get 90% of the "jokes".
eh, he had a technical profession but i didn't think the humor relied on anything too obscure. i might be misremembering; it's definitely possible.
The character is a nerd, but the humor is not simply "have you tried turning it off and on again." The jokes are generally not about anything technical but about micromanagement by a dumb boss, hierarchy and HR disasters, and terrible office relations with self-centered asses. It should be relatable by anyone slightly technical with diploma who works in an office, and that should be a lot of people not in manual labor in the 90s. Like, if you use Excel or PowerPoint, you're in the target for that humor.
Oh, the resolutions and the viewpoints and the nihilism are totally nerd-centric though.
yeah that's pretty much what I thought. shame he turned out to be such a chud. and an extremely racist one too. like, he was arguing for segregation and shit.
