Your favorite syndicated comic strips

I know that in this day and age, a lot of people have abandoned newspapers, thereby abandoning comic strips. Web comics (most of them shitty) have taken over the web, but there are still several feeds with daily comic strips that you can subscribe to. I use my iGoogle to keep a tab of Comics only, and I get to see them all on one page

Calvin and Hobbes will always hold a special place in my heart. It's the funniest, most clever, and appropriate strip for life in general. Hilarious and heartwarming factors plus nostalgia make it my most favorite strip of all time.

Peanuts isn't exactly the most hilarious strip, but it's very classic and has its funny moments. Almost every single comic strip artist in existence credits Charles Schulz and Peanuts to their success.

Speed Bump is one of the few single-panel strips that makes me laugh almost every time. They're usually very interesting and extremely clever.

Foxtrot is a great strip, simply because it appeals to the nerd in me. It's usually pretty funny too.

Pearls before Swine is a new favorite of mine; it's pretty quirky and there are lots of hilarious characters.

Does the c0r like newspaper comics?

I love reading the paper. I'm old school like that. Calvin & Hobbes and Dilbert are great.

FoxTrot isn't too shabby, either. I'm sure I'll think of others soon.

Ugh, Dilbert seems so cut-and-paste these days. It's like every single comic is like "hey I like being un-productive because it makes my boss angry."

Try "The Dilbert Hole", it's a fresh spin on one of your favorite comics!
