Penny Arcade and The Daily Show

Jon Shea June 24th, 2008

Jeff introduced me to Penny Arcade when we were both in high school. I don’t remember when exactly, but I vividly remember this reading this comic, and thinking that I related to it a bit too much (sorry Whitney).

It was about the same time that Craig Kilborn left The Daily Show. Kilborn was a better anchor than Jon Stewart. You might disagree, but that’s ok, I’m sure you’re wrong about a lot of things. Kilborn was always deadpan, like Stephen Colbert is today. He never let on that the show was a joke. You’ve got to give him props for that.

Stewart is just a standup comic that sits in anchor’s chair. And now he seems to have ripped off a joke from Penny Arcade.
