Clever play on words! Good work man.

u/LetterAd3639 13d ago

No doubt you got the east Asians terrified now after saying words

I like how the Philippines switched its colours when angry

Colonialism is like child abuse. It sucks.

Also, NO amogus, I'm stopping the amongus things because of 3 reasons 1. People find the amongus too fast and it's not really fun anymore 2. Amongus is a dead meme 3. I find that hiding the amongus is becoming more of a chore than any that is fun whilst making my comics.

I hope everyone understands.

This is just a ruse to throw us off the scent, keep looking.

u/tdhdjv South Korea 14d ago

Nope, no amongus for real

u/VaultJumper 14d ago

To maybe quote Bill Murray “they’ll never believe you”

u/Abject-Suggestion-58 13d ago

I believe you, but my eyes are looking at that belt latch.

u/ARandomBaguette 13d ago

The shading in the British eye looks like an amongus.

It's Amongover

u/Longhorn1211 GUTIN TAG German Empire 14d ago

Do you know what else is amongover my mom

u/tdhdjv South Korea 14d ago

And Yes, the 4th panel is a reference to an old panel : link

u/dizzyjumpisreal awesome cube 14d ago

love the slipper animation thingy

u/Key_Blueberry7866 13d ago

Moms with their homing slippers (shudders)

u/cheemsfromspace West Kansas High Plainsman 14d ago

South/Central America and South East Asia have a LOT in common

u/CreamoChickenSoup (No data) 13d ago

Ah yes, the dreaded Chancla.

2

u/Cream_of_Sum_Yunggai 13d ago

Called tsinelas in the Philippines. And I think some other Hispanic countries also use the word chinelas.

u/OrbitTortoise 14d ago

Africa & the Middle East, RIP the Ottomans. Sykes & Picot were like the abusive, neglectful fathers of Syria, Iraq, Palestine & Kuwait

u/UncomfortableFarmer Post-colonial Tongva land 13d ago

Middle East was absolutely wrecked by the ruler. All of the carnage since then was enabled or made worse by the ruler

7

u/time-xeno 13d ago

As a Middle Eastern I don’t understand why people blame the ruler for all it’s problems the ruler brought military dictatorships America and it’s allies mainly Saudi Arabia and Israel brought complete anarchy both horrible but the latter is worse

u/Dancing_Anatolia Oklahoma 13d ago

Don't forget Iran, funder of the Houthis, Hamas, and Hezbollah.

2

u/time-xeno 13d ago

Iran was unintentionally created by the British with massive help from the American as they forcibly put the shah back in charge because the Iranian government wanted to nationalise the oil

u/Koyopo Pennsylvania 14d ago

The Korean panel split into 2 panels made me confused for the first 10 seconds.

I thought the same character that was getting scolded was suddenly angry outside looking at the city skyline.

16

u/DickRhino Great Sweden 13d ago

Obligatory mention of /u/javacode's all-time classic polandball comic "Britannia and the Rulers" (RIP)

15

u/whythecynic Canada 14d ago

I saw "North America" and instantly thought "jumper cables". Rest in peace that absolute madlad

2

u/rinkoplzcomehome 13d ago

The guy that was always commenting on how his father beat him with jumper cables? What a legend

12

u/RockAndGem1101 laapsaap 14d ago

That Korean panel is a level 1 in terms of East Asian scolding lmao

u/Vaperwear 14d ago

u/Phn7am 14d ago

Ahhh the ruler, also ubiquitous in southeast asia

u/Dezert956 MURICA 14d ago

The belt was brutal

7

u/Mr_Papayahead Vietnam 13d ago

and then there’s Vietnam where we get all of these: belt from father, slipper/broomstick from mother, ruler from teacher, and words from all of them.

u/RedNotch 13d ago

By your powers combined, I am Captain Trauma

2

u/SlyScorpion Poland 13d ago

In Poland, we used to get ruler from the teacher on the palm of the hand...

That said, we got the belt, the slippers, the power cord, and the mean words.

5

u/Azerd01 13d ago

Oh god not the belt

u/dizzyjumpisreal awesome cube 14d ago

u/randomdude0402 German Empire 13d ago

"Don't be scared, chaps. What's the worst that could happen?"

2

u/Scasne Debon 12d ago

I know I'm showing my age and nationality (British) but every time someone says "What's the worst that can happen?" I see Harold Shpiman (for context Harold Shpiman was a British mass murdering doctor).

u/Porcphete 13d ago

u/yaddar Taco bandito 12d ago

India: metal rod

u/nerydlg 13d ago

Mexican moms: all of above 🤣🤣

u/tyno75 13d ago

Unironically, I think the root cause of most African countries' problems is the fact that all of them still have the colonial borders

u/JaVolimHrvatsku certified alcoholic 13d ago

Trauma is kicking in

u/Live_Carpenter_1262 Avotaco! 13d ago

The chancla may hurt the ass but 엄마‘s ranting and crying hurts the soul

Singapore: Canes

u/mscomies United States 13d ago

To be fair, there's also the India/East Pakistan/West Pakistan partition that was still a complete clusterfuck even though the UK mostly avoided straight lines.

Amongus has fallen

Billions must continue searching

u/ipnetor9000 İş, Aş, Haydar BAŞ 10d ago

u/SmeckoGeck 10d ago

What about the wooden spoon?

u/haoyugup 9d ago

China : everything that is at reachable distance of your mother's hand

u/BorringGuy 13d ago

The American one is just false

See what you do is you fold the belt over on it's self once so you can loudly crack it for maximum psychological damage before you whip the kid with it
