"Thanks Bumper Stickers!" Toothpaste For Dinner. 2 Sept. 2003. 31 Mar. 2009
The web comic Toothpaste for Dinner is a collection of poorly drawn, one-frame comics. The artist, know simply as "Drew", seems to pride himself on and derive his humor from brazen sarcasm, as well as pointing out obvious, yet ridiculous societal flaws. Drew is also known for the web comics Married to the Sea and Superpoop, which are also known for similar methods (one-frame comics) and the same sarcastic and sometimes absurd sense of humor. The Toothpaste for Dinner comic "Thanks Bumper Stickers!" (seen above) highlights the pointlessness of the marketing of religion (Christianity in particular), as well as religious recruitment efforts. The dry and sarcastic humor showcased in this comic is appropriate, as it further illustrates Drew's frustration and even anger towards the constant warping and packaging of religion (which is a view shared by many).
