The reason why it was ever popular was that it always wasn't just Loss or "us gamers, amirite" or "don't fuck with us we train hours on dumb shit" edgy shit. I distinctly remember there being a few good ones in the past when I used to read webcomics regularly.
I use to read webcomics when CAD was probably at it's peak. At least back when Little Gamers and VG Cats were at their peak. CAD always came across as try hard or something. The comics reminded me of the sort of people I avoided at LAN parties.
Probably. It's been idk 15 years since I read webcomics and the only thing I remember from CAD was the three I mentioned, mostly cuz they've been memed to death. And those are the worst of the worst my god.
I wasn't exactly looking at these very deeply then just killing time in school with restrictive internet filters in place.
