    It's a bit difficult to sum up honestly... Basically it's a webcomic about 4 kids who play a game, and some crazy stuff happens.

    MS Paint Adventures

    I'd personally recommend giving it a read. Act I is mainly humour based (and requires reading adjustment a bit). After a while the plot just gets crazy as shit.

    It's kind of getting through the ramblings of act 1 that's the challenge for many people...

    When you get into it you get some pretty awesome stuff: MS Paint Adventures like that.

    OH quick moment of curiosity:
    Anyone who doesn't read Homestuck what would you say is going on in this panel? (Always funny descriptions)

    I'm thinking there should just be a Homestuck superthread instead of all these smaller threads.

    And I think one of the most possible confusing Homestuck panels to non-readers is this:

    Honestly, it's sort of strange even given context.

    Yes a master thread would be lovely!~<3

    Okay, I can definitely agree with that. First read through when I saw that panel I was... Quite confused momentarily. Then again, at least if my memory serves me correctly, the oddity/absurdity of this whole scene was acknowledged in canon. I can only imagine how bizarre that must look to someone who has no prior knowledge of anything Homestuck.

    Every time I try to enjoy it, I can't get through the first...comic or story, or thing, panel-ly...thingie.

    I honestly cannot fathom the appeal.

    I view it as having nails hammered into your spine, and someone tells me "yeah it's cool". Maybe to crazy people.

    Crazies!

    To people having trouble: The first...500 "pages"...kinda suck. Its like that chapter in a book that gives you all the info and you come so close to putting the book down because its GRUELING to read but then stuff goes nuts and you go GJFKDLGSHJDFH THIS IS AWESOME. Trust me it took me three tries but now its awesome and I love it! =D

    Just push through...the first parts are so hard to read but it gets better and better as you read!

    There should be a list of patron trolls or something hehe.
