  Re: AFOLs - The comic!
 
(...) Well, sure -- that's exactly why it hits so hard. If something's just a "day job", and some bureaucratic change causes disruption, one can easily shrug and say, "oh well, it's not like it's anything that *matters*". But seriously disrupt (...)

  Re: AFOLs - The comic!
 
(...) I was also concerned that the comic might portray our feelings about the color change in an unfavorable light. But after reading it, I was very grateful for the message that it conveyed to TLC employees: Lots of us are angry about the color (...)

  Re: AFOLs - The comic!
 
(...) LOL - very funny stuff and a lot of it hits home - a little TOO close to home actually. Is there an AFOL 12 step program somewhere? (...) Here is where I am supposed to say "Don't quit your day job." ;-) Bob (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org, FTX)

(...) Oh, give me a break. People taking this, or for that matter ANY, issue *so* seriously is starting to make me rethink *my* wanting to be a part of this HOBBY. This HOBBY with TOYS. --SteveR (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org, FTX)
 
  Re: AFOLs - The comic!
 
(...) Trust me, I'm more than familiar with Lego's short deadlines for comic strip production. Especially this week! I don't think I even remember what my bed looks like. I'm so used to everybody spelling BrikWars a hundred different ways already (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org, FTX)
 
  Re: AFOLs - The comic!
 
(...) I never made fun of people who are concerned about the colour change issue. I point out the problems, and then end it with a funny punchline that certainly doesn't mock or belittle the character who is annoyed by the colour change. I can't see (...)

  Re: AFOLs - The comic!
 
(...) I love the comics. I think they are well drawn and cute. They can really help to get the point across about adults and LEGO. The megaBlXXks one was very funny. I am, however, rather offended that the artist feels it funny to joke about the (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org, FTX)
 
  Re: AFOLs - The comic!
 
(...) Well, the idea was in the same vein as that old adage... "Those who laugh together, stay together" I figured if I could get my colleagues laughing about these issues, they would stick in their minds a little more. Greg and I also tried very (...)
