Interesting style.
The humor is very dry. I like it.

I think it's fairly poor. I can't really offer any criticism on how to improve it except to try something else artistically. Exploding dog was always experimental with angles and compositions, wheras this is just stick figures with ambiguous sayings.
Try expanding it and, if you insist on drawing stick figures, try new things with composition and color. Since your figures are trying to express more with less, make use of their minimalistic nature and give them more dynamic postures and facial expressions. They tend to just stand there smiling when they could be telling your story for you.

Heh, Sam, still don't like them. Which is fine. I'll continue to do them as the 30,000+ people that've been to the site since June seem to enjoy them... if this wasn't the case. I would stop. There's even t-shirts, mugs, mousepads, posters, underwear/boxers/thongs of dJ out there. I also wasn't looking for critique - but I'll take your advice and try different angles.
