Of course it is, just like yours is just your opinion, man :)

an opinion millions of people disagree with :)

Really? What community would that be?

could i ask your approximate age? and/or if you remember approximately what year you first saw this comic?

I saw it first today in this post here, wondering why anybody would spent such a high sum on a simple doodle like that.

i would guess that someone who doesn’t find this comic funny, not to mention historically important, must not be old enough to remember the time when most people hadn’t been online yet.

My opinion in this case has nothing to do with my age or my relationship to internet culture but is based on my perspective on comics. I have been into European comic art for my whole life and especially into the work of it´s greatest artist, Moebuis. Being used to consuming high quality comic art, I perceived the doodle of two dogs as not special.

Excuse my ignorance but is this in fact a well known meme, that I somehow never noticed in all those years on reddit?

Click the article, the comic was originally published in the New Yorker in 1993

Sorry but how is that relevant. I feel like I am missing something ...

[-] rediot@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

I was trying to help with context it seemed like you were asking when it was published and when it reached its claimed value.

I see, thank you. I had trouble to understand how it reached it´s claimed value in the first place.
