Apparently it was all weird butt and fart porn played more for laughs than arousal. Still, knowing that Ronnie's 24-inch pencil dick sticking out of his fat body like a life vest tube is canon makes you unable to look at the comic the same way again.
Otaku Dad was nothing but “muh anime” but goddammit, it was good. I wish he’d kept it up longer. There were way more stories and arcs he coulda done before dropping that finale to make it more impactful. It was still a good finale, though.
What the frick are you guys talking about, I know Ronnie is like a super loser amalgam but I had never seen people accusing him of being an actual diddler?
Apparently that "girlfriend" he mentioned in the comic only saw herself as a platonic friend and was creeped out when she found out Ronnie thought otherwise.
>The truth is that my mental health has been steadily declining. I've strained and destroyed relationships over it
That's from his patreon post and the closest thing to actual information we've gotten. Given the timing, there's a very, very strong chance he's referring to his girlfriend here. It sounds less like the "lol he thought he had a girlfriend but didn't" rumor and more like he was having a longterm depression episode that his girlfriend got tired of dealing with.
>Andrew Dobson finally wised up and realized that webcomics are a fruitless endeavor for him, quit the internet for good, and is in all likelihood out getting his shit together for the first time in his life >Ronnie accidentally publicly humiliated himself by broadcasting his breakup, is clinging to producing a bland unfunny webcomic that people don’t even read ironically, and is probably wallowing in clinical depression
It’s not fair, bros. The world is out of balance. I want to go back.
Andrew Dobson is living with his parents because he can't get a job and isn't allowed to use the internet because his notoriety has started to effect his brothers ability to find work.
It will never not amaze me how easy it is to literally say anything about anyone with no source of any kind and for a bunch of moronic homosexuals to eat it up as fact.
No, Ronnie is not a pedophile. No he did not date a 15 year old girl.
the only fault ronnie has is being to pure for this world
It will never not amaze me how easy it is to literally say anything about anyone with no source of any kind and for a bunch of moronic homosexuals to eat it up as fact.
No, Ronnie is not a pedophile. No he did not date a 15 year old girl.
Reminds me of a post in Cinemaphile where anon claimed he'd said as many lies as he pleases because when you repeat it enough it'll become the truth for people that don't know better and don't have enough investment in what's been discussed to bother checking sources (so most of the userbase) and that there's not a single thing anybody can do about it.
Also to all those screenshots that have been popping up lately of discord groups that exist merely to organise attempts at confounding the perceived majority's opinion here, for no particular reason other than whatever pride they feel of being able to manipulate Cinemaphile(nel).
Also to remain on topic I'll ask why hasn't it occurred to ronnie to focus on his horror and body horror comics, which were usually very good.
>has mental health issues >gee, why doesn't he do horror comics
constantly searching for horrifying ideas, drawing horrifying things, puts a strain on you, much worse than that which is what got ronnie problems already
The man drew an entire multi-part "horror" comic about his cat, and even went the extra mile of portraying his wife as a blank-eyed ghost monster woman.
Junji Ito is fricking ADORABLE.
These people you're thinking about are the successful ones, anon.
It's easier to be happy with a secure place in society, money and an entertaining way to bring it in
People who got through terrible problems get good at putting a facade too, it doesn't sell to be unhappy
No. No no. It's therapeutic. You just describe some personal horror obliquely while some banal supernatural monster threatens the life of your characters. That's the Lovecraft method. Doesn't even require good writing.
Oh man I've been there.
Me and my friends were all at this restaurant in China. I had plenty of British money but no more Chinese money so I ordered the cheapest thing on the menu. When the waitress asked if I wanted rice I said "how much?". When they said it was 15p for rice I said "Nah, that's too expensive, sorry". She gave me the deepest look of shock, pity, and horror I've seen in my life and promptly came back with a huge bowl of rice just for me AND a steaming plate of vegetables for free. They saw my extremely skinny arse (45kg, 5'8'') unable to pay for rice and decided this dude must be dying.
One time me and my girlfriend were counting cash at a restaurant just because we were trying to figure out how we were going to pay/tip and if we needed to use my card, and this old couple went to the counter and paid for our food without telling us.
I unironically don't understand why he didn't do that. He has a genuine talent for horror and when Whomp was put on indefinite hiatus I figured he'd make the switch over to horror, but instead he's doing that mediocre alien comic that doesn't have anything going for it.
>has mental health issues >gee, why doesn't he do horror comics
constantly searching for horrifying ideas, drawing horrifying things, puts a strain on you, much worse than that which is what got ronnie problems already
Also maybe hes doing the weird alien comic as some unusual way to cope/handle the shit hes been going through? Idk Im not psych
That's been the thought process, yeah. It paints everything in the comic in a more disturbing light, so it might also just be fun to imagine that it's the case.
I only want him to do well. I hope he is still pursuing coding as I think he could probably do work in that field. He wrote a game, he's probably talented enough to get a job that pays reasonably well and still gives him time to do fun stuff.
One thing I respect about Whomp is that Ronnie usually makes an effort not to copy paste panels. Or at least, to make it *look* like he doesn't. See . He probably reuses the sketch layers, and then redraws over them. It makes the comic look a lot higher effort.
Kill la Kill is perfectly fine if you don't have the American nudity hangup. Also, people write papers about futanari. You gave her data points to ride the wave.
This is what I thought therapy was gonna be like, but now that I've started I’m actually very embarrassed to bring up my interests to my therapist, and instead bullshit for an hour about how my week went.
Why does everyone keep saying his alien comic is creepy? I just found it super boring but don't get where's the creep part. It just seemed like a generic fish out of water story to me.
People can’t accept seeing a stand in for an adult man interact with stand ins for children without feeling pedo vibes anymore, no matter what the context.
What i think happened >be a loser who uses depression jokes as a cope >finally get a a taste of happiness you always wanted >it all crashes down before it even starts >real depression hits
I can relate because it happened to me too, i rarely make self deprecating jokes anymore
This is what happened to me too. Real depression is when you just stop wanting to do anything. I spend hours just laying bed staring at the ceiling. Life was easier when I expected everything to go wrong, now I crave the things I lost and just feel miserable instead of free like when I was just a regular loser.
So I googled him to find his new webcomic ("From earth in peace") and found someone else with the surname Filyaw.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinson_Filyaw
> Vinson Filyaw (December 15, 1969[citation needed] – May 3, 2021) was an American construction worker. He was convicted of kidnapping and raping Elizabeth Shoaf, a 14-year-old girl from Lugoff, South Carolina, in 2006, holding her captive in an underground bunker.
Jesus fricking Christ, I sure hope he’s not related
Ronnie's been wanting to stop doing Whomp! at least since his fake OC girlfriend and frankly I don't think him going back to do it would do him any favors.
The guy's been sick of Whomp! for most of the time he's been doing it.
I did for like twenty pages, maybe more. I think I tapped out after a planet of cat people were being introduced- I’m not sure though. I know at least Ronnie’s self insert alien with the antlers had shown up, but hadn’t yet had enough screentime to be a very big character.
It's more of a healthy point for a creator if you've got that in-between line. Your name is enough of a draw that people can go 'Hey I know their stuff, it's pretty good' but past that no one gives a shit what you do outside your work. The mistake alot of creatives make is letting people glimpse into their personal life. Outside of emergencies that effect the work it's better to keep your audience in the dark about what your life is like.

I want to agree with you, but my mind instantly turned to Tatsuya Ishida, who I think may be the exception to your rule.
To my understanding, he has virtually no social media presence. Nobody actually knows anything about his private life except for shit from decades’ old interviews and forum posts that confirm he is asian and a little self deprecating. But because his webcomic is so off the wall bonkers and takes such sharp turns in radical ideology, people speculate wildly about what he and his life are like constantly.
pedo fat frick
Wait what? Did Ronnie do something? It's been a few years since I've read his comic or heard anything about him
He didn’t do anything. He just looks kinda creepy to the poor zoomer babies.
He got a girlfriend and then went into a funk over being dumped. He ended up drawing a lot of Whomp! porn before ditching it entirely for a new comic.
>. He ended up drawing a lot of Whomp! porn
Huh, really? I can't imagine this.
Apparently it was all weird butt and fart porn played more for laughs than arousal. Still, knowing that Ronnie's 24-inch pencil dick sticking out of his fat body like a life vest tube is canon makes you unable to look at the comic the same way again.
Did you even read his comic?
That one is our doing, if you recall.
>I don't mind helping you because you can't... Reach
This is my fetish. Being the helper, I mean.
what did he do?
Interesting image.
He looks like and everything molester
Don't know who or what this is but I know he's a pedophile.
>finally makes a comic beyond muh depression, muh fat, muh idiosyncrasies, muh anime
>gets shit on
Don't listen to em ronnie
homie it's sad weird and it's awful
even otaku dad was better and that was also garbage
and the artstyle is terrible compared to whomp
As always, trying to appeal to this board is a stupid exercise in futility.
Otaku Dad was nothing but “muh anime” but goddammit, it was good. I wish he’d kept it up longer. There were way more stories and arcs he coulda done before dropping that finale to make it more impactful. It was still a good finale, though.
Is this groomer Dobson or someone else?
No this is Ronnie. We like Ronnie. He’s a sweet man.
This is groomer Ronnie, get it right.
Stop posting pedophiles in this board
We still talk about Ren and Stimpy, Anon.
What the frick are you guys talking about, I know Ronnie is like a super loser amalgam but I had never seen people accusing him of being an actual diddler?
Yes, I too do not know what's that about
wish he would print another book just need one more to be able to custom bind and make a nice hc. poor ronnie hoping he is doing better
Based fellow custom hardcovering CHAD!!!
Glad to see theirs at least 3 of us on here rise up fellow binders
Apparently that "girlfriend" he mentioned in the comic only saw herself as a platonic friend and was creeped out when she found out Ronnie thought otherwise.
How would you even know that
My source is a Cinemaphile post I read a few months ago.
So it’s bullshit.
Source?
She was also 15 IIRC
And a thai ladyboi transwoman, is whats I heard.
I also heard she was a spanish flamenco dancer who was actually a supersecret spy that moonlighted as an exotic dancer in Cuba.
And former president of the United States Donald Trump.
I heard they weren’t dating, they actually got married but then divorced, all in the span of a week.
Oh so thats why anons are calling him a pedo now.
Damn, I guess the signs were all there
RONNIE NO!
You didn't even need to crop this one. Post the whole comic it's pretty funny.
>The truth is that my mental health has been steadily declining. I've strained and destroyed relationships over it
That's from his patreon post and the closest thing to actual information we've gotten. Given the timing, there's a very, very strong chance he's referring to his girlfriend here.

It’s not fair, bros. The world is out of balance. I want to go back.
Andrew Dobson is living with his parents because he can't get a job and isn't allowed to use the internet because his notoriety has started to effect his brothers ability to find work.
Right, the CIA turned down Dobson’s brother all because Andy got kicked off twitter. And Ronnie groomed a 15 year old asian girl.
I'd groom a 15 year old Asian girl and you can't stop me b***h
Bullshit
I see this posted often but I’ve never seen any actual proof
There isn’t any. Anons got bored of speculating with no news, so somebody started making shit up.
isnt he also 6,3 heres hoping hes feeling better
HOLY SHIT he's looks exactly like me but taller.
You look just like KC Green?
God, I look exactly like Ronnie and I want to frick him so bad.
Apparently Ronnie destroyed that twink in the con bathroom a few hours later
Good for him. Both of them, really.
Lucky twink.
I want to suck his dick so hard he loses consciousness
Which one?
Simpler and purer times and even then we were already lamenting the degradation around us, it's not fair lads.
>and is in all likelihood out getting his shit together for the first time in his life
Let's be real, he is not getting his shit together.
the only fault ronnie has is being to pure for this world
literally me
It will never not amaze me how easy it is to literally say anything about anyone with no source of any kind and for a bunch of moronic homosexuals to eat it up as fact.
No, Ronnie is not a pedophile. No he did not date a 15 year old girl.
You know it's not true because Ronnie would be based if he did that and he's not.
Reminds me of a post in Cinemaphile where anon claimed he'd said as many lies as he pleases because when you repeat it enough it'll become the truth for people that don't know better and don't have enough investment in what's been discussed to bother checking sources (so most of the userbase) and that there's not a single thing anybody can do about it.

No it doesn't. Horror writers are the happiest people on Earth. They aren't Facebook moderators.
> Horror writers are the happiest people on Earth.
And once again I am reminded how cute of a human being Junji Ito is.
The man drew an entire multi-part "horror" comic about his cat, and even went the extra mile of portraying his wife as a blank-eyed ghost monster woman.
Junji Ito is fricking ADORABLE.

They're probably crying trying to figure out why you're so dense, anon.
No. No no. It's therapeutic. You just describe some personal horror obliquely while some banal supernatural monster threatens the life of your characters. That's the Lovecraft method. Doesn't even require good writing.
The first guy was just joking, then
and
didn't know any better and thought it was a le epic Cinemaphile meme they could jump on. They're just newbies trying to fit in.
>They're just newbies trying to fit in.
Yes so a bunch of moronic homosexuals
He looks like Matt Groening.
No no no you are doing it wrong!
You are supposed to have a patsy arabian oil prince who drops 5k donations every now and then for no reeason!
Ronnie is so good at depicting the worst most embarrassing situations I've ever seen
Man, he drew himself with some man cans in the second panel.
Oh man I've been there.
Me and my friends were all at this restaurant in China. I had plenty of British money but no more Chinese money so I ordered the cheapest thing on the menu. When the waitress asked if I wanted rice I said "how much?". When they said it was 15p for rice I said "Nah, that's too expensive, sorry".

They saw my extremely skinny arse (45kg, 5'8'') unable to pay for rice and decided this dude must be dying.
In China, mothers tell their children to finish their food because there’s starving children in white countries.
One time me and my girlfriend were counting cash at a restaurant just because we were trying to figure out how we were going to pay/tip and if we needed to use my card, and this old couple went to the counter and paid for our food without telling us.
It occurs to me that Ronnie could have pivoted to horror instead of SoL like bikecuck and become more successful. Horrorcucks pay out of the wazoo.
He really should have; it must be one of those things here he's good at it, but isn't very interested in it, what a waste of potential.
I unironically don't understand why he didn't do that. He has a genuine talent for horror and when Whomp was put on indefinite hiatus I figured he'd make the switch over to horror, but instead he's doing that mediocre alien comic that doesn't have anything going for it.

That anime about e-girl ghosts this season isn't bad.
Is it Mel or Mei ?
Mei
Why? Virtually all of his comics are "i am fat and sad, i like anime, le funy reaction face xD"
not true anon
> fat
>sad
>anime
>le funy reaction face
This literally has every thing that anon listed.
I'm sorry you don't understand nuance, pleb.
Cope
newbies. Ronnie is /ourguy/
No, anon. I have been here since well before you newbie tr/a/nimes started spamming le epic fatman.
wtf you talking about anon he was one of the original people on /shelf/ and would post when this place was still just comics
Keep larping homosexual Ronnie has always been loved here
Pure kino
yah, but with actual talent this becomes just a setting like any other
If it's funny it's funny
We need M Dude to snap him out of this seemingly terminal feeling when no gf.
One thing I respect about Whomp is that Ronnie usually makes an effort not to copy paste panels. Or at least, to make it *look* like he doesn't. See . He probably reuses the sketch layers, and then redraws over them. It makes the comic look a lot higher effort.
I imagine this would be me if I didn't pathologically hide my powerlevel around people in professional settings.
Zoomers just act like this all the time now. It's fricked up.
i once made my therapist search what futanari is and accidentally made her watch kill la kill with her 12 yo son
>KLK futa
Satsuki or Ryuko?
Omiko
Kill la Kill is perfectly fine if you don't have the American nudity hangup. Also, people write papers about futanari. You gave her data points to ride the wave.
This is what I thought therapy was gonna be like, but now that I've started I’m actually very embarrassed to bring up my interests to my therapist, and instead bullshit for an hour about how my week went.
Wear a mask. Play the persona you use here.
>the alien webtoon sucks wiener
It does.
It really does.
Also it's creepy as hell.
Why does everyone keep saying his alien comic is creepy? I just found it super boring but don't get where's the creep part. It just seemed like a generic fish out of water story to me.
People can’t accept seeing a stand in for an adult man interact with stand ins for children without feeling pedo vibes anymore, no matter what the context.

It is.

lol
What i think happened
>be a loser who uses depression jokes as a cope
>finally get a a taste of happiness you always wanted
>it all crashes down before it even starts
>real depression hits
I can relate because it happened to me too, i rarely make self deprecating jokes anymore

I think about the alt text to this comic a lot.
>I have no idea what you could be seeing when you look at me
Wait.
How does he have a mom?
Was he adopted?
(...)
So I googled him to find his new webcomic ("From earth in peace") and found someone else with the surname Filyaw.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinson_Filyaw
Weird name
I believe most people on Earth have mothers.
Ronnie was created by Santa Claus.
By fricking his mother.
Ronnie’s father is Santa, and Santa fricked Ronnie’s mom. It’s not complicated.
> Vinson Filyaw (December 15, 1969[citation needed] – May 3, 2021) was an American construction worker. He was convicted of kidnapping and raping Elizabeth Shoaf, a 14-year-old girl from Lugoff, South Carolina, in 2006, holding her captive in an underground bunker.
Jesus fricking Christ, I sure hope he’s not related
Best one by fat.
Nice freudian slip. He does die by fat.
frick
Those two had problems which were completely unrelated to being horror writers.
Ronnie's been wanting to stop doing Whomp! at least since his fake OC girlfriend and frankly I don't think him going back to do it would do him any favors.
The guy's been sick of Whomp! for most of the time he's been doing it.
He probably shouldn't be doing a comic about how much he sucks right now
First time seeing a posterior without pixelation, eh?
What kind of pizza is that?
Maybe it's pie.
pineapple pizza.
pineapple marmalade pizza. No cheese.
do any of you even read his new comic
I did for like twenty pages, maybe more. I think I tapped out after a planet of cat people were being introduced- I’m not sure though. I know at least Ronnie’s self insert alien with the antlers had shown up, but hadn’t yet had enough screentime to be a very big character.
You're probably missing all the references.
>ywn listen to Ronnie's toilet ukulele music
Why even live?
Did you know that Ronnie used to be a cop? He quit on April 30th 1992.
Thanks to Sublime, I understood this reference.
Is it ever going to get better for our Ronnie?
If it does, we probably won’t get to see it. Internet fame just isn’t healthy. Hell, neither is internet anonymity.
It's more of a healthy point for a creator if you've got that in-between line. Your name is enough of a draw that people can go 'Hey I know their stuff, it's pretty good' but past that no one gives a shit what you do outside your work. The mistake alot of creatives make is letting people glimpse into their personal life.
