Comedy is hard. Wank is easy.
With a fanbase like Homestuck's, the bar is set pretty high for "baffling" things to say about the comic, but one Timothy Sexton catches creator Andrew Hussie's eye with his review/article/wordpile on Yahoo Movies that clears that bar easily:

"If you remain unaware of Homestuck as an internet phenomenon, then you either don't kids or aren't aware of this here thing called the internets. As George W. Bush liked to refer (and probably still refer) to it. Homestuck is one day going to become a movie of some sort. Comedy is hard. Death is easy. That makes Homestuck a juggler."

You can read the full thing here. You can't read it in its original form on Yahoo anymore, though, because it was removed. According to Timothy Sexton, Homestuck fans got it taken down because it was too intelligent for them and they were jealous, or something. We know this because he says so in his follow-up article, entitled "Homestuck Fans: Not Quite as Hip and Intellectually Gifted as They Think."

"Don't feed the troll? What does that mean?" -dozens of Homestuck fans.

Hussie, for his part, finds the entire thing hilarious.

Once again proving the simple axiom that keeps soaring over some people's heads: If everyone (or most everyone) is missing your point, you didn't make it clear enough. It's not their problem, it's yours.

If they were capable of recognizing that, they'd be much less likely to make these sorts of mistakes in the first place.

I'm not even joking. I've seen the exact same people make the exact same stupid errors over and over again, and just rationalize away all corrections. Some of them have tumblrs just so they can point out how wrong people who disagree with them are, and to mock them while not actually being able to prove them wrong.
