    Might be a misinformed take, but I always saw these as making fun of the original/the artist, not enshrining it. The webcomic as a whole was so-so and fairly innocuous at the time, but Loss represented such an incredibly cruel and tone-deaf shift that it legitimately upset/bewildered a lot of people.

    I couldn’t say with confidence why people continue to reference it, but maybe helpful as context?
