I've always enjoyed the oatmeal's comics. What is your reason for referring to him as an idiot?

  Actually at first I thought idiot was a bit harsh.. but then I reread what I had forgotten about that post - I think if he's juvenile to promote the vandalism of wikipedia over a completely fantastical, out of context reinterpretation of history to label Thomas Edison a "douchebag", well then it is fair to label him an idiot on a limited forum. Also, there's no accounting for taste but I find even his non-serious comics puerile and not terribly funny - pretty much one step above Taboola chum, or Jim Davis for millenials. Most of the "humor" and overplayed hook is simply describing everyday things with odd adjectives, ie hair cave=vagina, saliva=evil mouth juice, wow. There's probably a term for this trope.. Anyway, it gets clicks on Facebook.
