A Child Prodigy
Yowza, this is probably the “edgiest” comic in a while. Please look away in advance if you’re easily offended!
Edit: Also, if you missed it earlier this week, scroll down for the new batch of Bad Comics.

Not offended, that’s why I come here!
Bah, prodigy my eye. I bet the dad coached him.
Hey, good to have you back, Kristian!!
“You, all right! I learned it by watching you!”
I don’t think it’s edgy, I think this is pretty typical of today’s society.

Was there supposed to be some sort of underlying message, or is this yet another artwork where the entire “humour” comes from a vulgar message coming from something supposedly cute and innocent? Because that’s NEVER been done before. Certainly not by just about every cartoon in the past 20 years trying to be “edgy” and “hip”.
@Esn: The ambivalence in the second panel was the main thing for me, not the cute/naughty juxtaposition, but ohwell.
I advice to get Nietschian* on that.
Art.

Not.
Justify.

*oh yes, Nietsche was an .. donkeyhole from a humanistic and an knowlittle from a philosophical perspective. But this is. Art.
If someone was easily offended, wouldn’t they naturally look away anyway?
Shutup grumpy old man.
Sarcasm has also never been done before, Esn.
I liked your look away in advance after the comic
That was part of the joke wasn’t it?,
It’s the correct punctuation that makes it for me.
I had a feeling where it was going when I saw the F on the block the child is holding in the first panel. I suppose that could’ve been a deliberate clue. If so, it worked great! :-)
Parenting sounds horrible to me, but I could get into raising this kid. I mean, that’s where my kids would end up, anyway, so it would save time if I had one like this.
Hurray, you’re back! Someone should turn this into a Mothers Day card.
