I believe that PizzaCake is Penny Arcade for women, and Penny Arcade is PizzaCake for men.
This opinion may piss some people off, and I don’t care. The comics are of equal quality, but PizzaCake has more opinions I agree with because I, too, am a gender minority.
heh. i got introduced to PA by the woman who everyone was bothering me to marry my entire 20s (one of the few people to be able to learn the musical technique that bears my name, btw, which makes her one of the top performers of that instrument in the world. AND SHE RETIRED. we’ve been besties since, uh, a year or two after i graduated high school? i met her in the same band i met my wife in, her older sister and i were/are close. have done a lot of music together.) and she’s not just a brilliant musician, she plays video and board games too. And is not single, sorry dudes. she’s a hell of a catch, she just isn’t my kind of fish.
I don’t know why people would be pissed off, as this comment isn’t clear if being compared to Penny Arcade is supposed to be a bad thing or a good thing.
I would be delighted at the comparison. I don’t care if they are saying “they have the art style of early dinosaur comics” i’m still getting a qwantz.com reference i made them think of dinosaur comics holy cow i got compared to ryan north hells yeah
It’s truly bad, I’m lucky they released such an intensely mid comic on the very day I chose to liken it to PizzaCake (Which is also often mid, but has got a lot better since she went more controversial)
The last couple comics are callbacks to characters who haven’t appeared in the comic for years, peeking in to see how they’ve changed and grown. It’s nostalgia for longtime readers and won’t make sense for anyone else.
eeee! what are you user tagging with i am having to use my brain and i ran out of memspace years ago. remembering Capital Grail (They are One of my favourites) is getting easier for me but ooo that would be nice to have a digital postit note. sorry, hook and loop note.

Man you’re gonna shit when you find out women have been reading PA the entire time

There are many men who like Penny Arcade and don’t like Pizzacake.

that’s just me, but you follow?
What’s Penny Arcade?
Here’s today’s comic:
Now that’s what I call absolutely terrible!

Ok, thats a good equivalent tbh.
I feel like I’m missing some plot here

Wow, the art style has changed drastically since I last read those. It’s been years and years.
They genuinely used to look a lot more like the comic in OP, artistically.
Edit to add:
This one is supposedly from the 90s, but much closer to what I remember regardless.
I think Penny Arcade’s one of the few comics where I think their character designs got worse, the longer they ran.
You’re telling me this isn’t from a porn parody?
Yeah, they did not age well at all. I think our senses of humour evolved in different directions, too.
Has fruit fucker not entered the ancient lore???
Eat the rich?
With barbecue sauce
Goddamnit now I’ve got that damn 90s Chili’s jingle stuck in my head.
Let’s see if I can change that.

Aww, thanks!
PieFed has a user note feature
As Grail mentioned, PieFed has user tagging baked in. I believe Voyager for Lemmy has the functionality too.
Oh, now this is a take. The essentialism is a bit lazy, but the vibes fit, right down to the dickwolves debacle.
Wow, I didn’t know about the dickwolves thing until now. That’s a very PizzaCake thing to happen.
Me if someone said my work is of the same quality as Penny Arcade:
