What I like about this comic is that it turned out to be pretty much exactly what I expected at the beginning, yet it still got a laugh. Very inspired.

Honestly, what I liked about this comic was not much. Can someone explain to me the humor in posting MWS horror stories?

I don't think that MWS horror stories are funny. I hate when that happens on MWS. This comic is funny because it questions what it would be like if people behaved in this manner without the protection of anonymity. It's an old source of humor, by internet standards, but MWS is, I think, a particularly stark example of a single activity which adopts a completely different character when it is done remotely. Perhaps this speaks to the sort of people who play Magic, since online Scrabble, for example, does not feature this behavior? It's a truth, told in an extraordinary way, the epitome of observational humor.
