i could give you a million reasons, but i can try to boil it down.

• the webcomic was not a serious or dramatic affair, and swapped between silly one off gags and a linear narrative, so Loss was squared up with goofy comedy
• the author took a real event that he and his girlfriend experienced, but appeared to have a completely unsympathetic and callous opinion on his real ex’s real miscarriage
• the derivative nature of the webcomic series in both style and substance, and its perfect encapsulation of gamers and gaming culture, makes it s prime target for eternal parody by outsiders and insiders alike
