Time Buckley (the author of Ctrl + Alt + Delete) was a *famous* internet asshole. Not only was the comic itself considered to be a low-rent PvP/Penny Arcade with superfluous dialogue, copy-and-pasted art and bad punchlines, but he was a known plagiarizer, ripped his background images off Google image search, aggressively edited his own Wikipedia page to avoid criticism, disrespected other webcomic artists, banned all critical voices from his own official message board, told his fans to NOT donate to Child's Play, and generally carried himself like a tool, And then there's the whole did-he-didn't-he send pictures of his genitalia to an underage girl saga, which I guess you had to be there for.

Buckley was being crucified well before Loss dropped. It just reinforced the hack reputation he'd already earned.

So you’re saying he was ahead of his time?

Still. Miscarriage is heavy. If there was a real miscarriage, I feel bad for the mother whose significant loss became the butt of hundreds of thousands of jokes. That's gotta be tough on your mental health

I heard he walked around comic con wearing sunglasses inside the building the whole time. That guy wanted to be cool so bad.
