It's witty but also has some really creative elements thrown in. Shame it got cancelled cause it was on some nothing network despite having a cast consisting of Daniel Stern, Kathy Griffin, and quite a few other big names. Hell for guest stars they had Seinfeld, Leno, Gottfried, Andy Dick, and Jeri Ryan. Those are big names today, let alone in the late 1990s when they were in their prime.
I have to second this, it's one of the best animated shows I've ever seen. I watched the whole thing over a weekend, then came to work and recommended it to everyone and got a lot of really strange looks.
He's the quintessential enlightened centrist. Everything he says is couched behind the conceit that he's talking about persuasion and not his actual beliefs. It's a lot of big brained Anglo empiricism and quasi-pandering to his much farther right than he is audience.
Some of his earlier books like The Dilbert Principle are good because they actually focused on poking fun at big business. Once he started trying to write unironic life advice stuff and "thought expirements" it just became fucking dumb.
I don't even think he's an enlightened centrist so much as a radical contrarian who just swallows anything that isn't mainstream whole. He's a lot like r/conspiracy mods, actually.
Im here from CTH to say that your wrong and we're gonna have to seize your memes of production as the capitalist scum are making idea money and we still cant code or mine.

That’s a shame, it’s a good show FYI

Man, I haven't thought about Dilbert in a long time. Peak pre-9/11 America tbh

I'll be thinking a LOT more of him now.

The artist came out as a Trump supporter pre-election and caused lots of drama.

He also lost his daughter to drugs that were smuggled over the border, so now he blogs about it a ton.

Good reads, honestly.
1 Seattle_Bussy_Lmao 2019-03-02
He is a good writer, for sure.

So brave of him to transition post mortem!

I can not recommend the Dilbert TV show enough.

I forget what his book was, but i was stoked to read it because he seemed like such an interesting guy.
If you want a plot synopsis, imagine a clone of Socrates jacking the original Socrates off, and then compress that idea into a book.
1 EarnestNoMeta 2019-03-02
from what I understand Socrates would totally be down for that

Filbert moonlights as a power washer.

I'm assuming this is when it happens on /r/Drama, because the CTH mods are massive pussies and will delete actual "hog" if posted.
1 Cade_Connelly_13 2019-03-02
Fitting. Out of everybody in his comic, Dilbert tied for "most sane and hardest working" with the janitor.

Hawt.

I'm more disturbed on how he's peeing with a 5ft long dong
1 Momruepari 2019-03-02
I'm not seeing the problem here. Longer dick = longer range, higher accuracy
