The only thing I remember about this windbag is that he used to make a mildly entertaining comic strip about modern work culture, and then he took a blow to the head or something and sadly became incoherent.
i watched the dilbert animated show and it was hilarious. he only wrote two episodes of it though.
also i don’t think it was about being a nerd. it was about being a normal dude in a corporate world where everyone seems incompetent, dumb or crazy. it’s basically the office.
I can’t speak for others, but I felt like it was trying too hard. That, and “nerd” culture has been mainstream since at least the release of the Lord of the Rings movies. To act like they’re all some kind of outcasts because of their interests in previously outre things like Dungeons and Dragons or particle physics was just disingenuous.

He lost his mind in the divorce.
Gee, I can’t imagine why anyone would want to divorce him.
Dilbert always sucked. I feel like it’s like 90s Big Bang Theory in comic form. “Look, I’m a nerd just like you guys!”

It was supposed to be written for nerds, like Big Bang Theory. The Office was not.
Maybe you forget the specific type of humor present in Dilbert comics? But most layman would not get 90% of the “jokes”.
eh, he had a technical profession but i didn’t think the humor relied on anything too obscure. i might be misremembering; it’s definitely possible.
I thought Dilbert had its moments.
I couldn’t get through a single episode of Big Bang Theory, so I don’t really know much about it.
Why do so many people hate tbbt? I’m a huge nerd and I mostly loved it

Nerds are still angry about a show that normalized hot women dating nerdy guys?
Is this the Dilbert guy?
Yup
