      Yeah I don’t get it. Why does anyone care if the comic was set up that way and if other people copied it. It’s not funny? It’s not anything?

        It’s an in-joke.

        The comic used to be big in the ~2000s nerd space, mostly by being one of the earlier video game focused webcomics that hit it big. The author had/has a… polarizing personality and the comic itself went from dick jokes and game references to super serious miscarriage storyline at the drop of a hat.

        Que endless satire.

          I have never understood the meme but that clues me in a bit, thank you.

          Fyi, it’s “Cue endless satire.”

          Que is Spanish for “what” and is pronounced similar to Kay.

          Queue is a bunch of extra letters standing in line after the “Q”

          Cue is “it’s time” - imagine an actor backstage being poked with a pool cue to get them going.
