Are there any truly unsympathetic MALE characters in this strip?

Hanners, Dale, and The vacuum. Hannelore being my favorite. Other than that all the characters are whiny little emo's. Cept the ones who are all broish.

Where are you getting "Whiny little emos" from?

Marten, Dora, Faye, Marigold. In the beginning I may have gotten the reasons and sympathized, now its just eye gouge worthy. Faye, btw is not nearly as much as she used to be. Just don't like the bitch.

Wow they are some harsh words DoomMagnet.
I personally think Faye is one of my favorite characters. Just because she has come through her badness and issues to a better place doesn't make her less interesting now.
I think that you should really justify your comments and back them up with valid points or examples if you want them to be considered worthwhile. Also how valid are your comments in the context to the main discussion of this thread? I don't see the any connection between your like or dislike of certain character to the topic being discussed.
I am not having a go, I just don't understand where your comments fit in or what you are trying to contribute here.

I don't know, I can understand someone saying that about Marten, Dora and Marigold. Faye I'll give you, but the other three are pretty whiny.
Carl-E:
Marigold is whiny, in the "why don't I have any friends?" sort of way. At least she's bein brought out of her shell some. But Dora? Sure, she's insecure as hell, but was always more apt to make a joke about it than to whine. And when she realized her insecurities were getting the better of her (yes, long after we realized it, and only with help) she decided to do something about it. She had to be forced, but she acquiesced.
Marten occasionally goes "Waaah, my life isn't good", but it's not that often, and lately his life has't been good, so what the hell is he supposed to act like?
I repeat;

And I'm pretty sure it was the latter, just looking at his/her other posts.
Carl-E:
Good point, but it can be a fine line between mopey and whiny!
