The DogHouse Diaries is a webcomic created by the trio of William Samari, Ray Yamartino, and Rafaan Anvari. It's a stick figure webcomic where each strip deals with a new topic. While there is a broad array of topics covered, some of the main underlying themes are male & female interactions/relationships, satire, observational humor, pop culture, science and friendship. Everything in between includes charts, graphs and shenanigans involving anything from burritos to a man running around in a chickensuit with a baseball bat.
New comics are added three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Each comic also has a tooltip, specified using the title attribute in HTML. The text usually contains an afterthought or annotation related to that day's comic.For the most part, each comic includes an alt-text and signoff. Another aspect of each post recently has been that instead of a URL tag, there is the tag of Doghouse Diaries with a different slogan under it.
History
[edit]The website was founded in January 2009. It was the brainchild of a group of friends eating cheeseburgers while talking about recipe websites. The combination of eating food and talking about food on the internet gave birth to a webcomic. It began gaining considerable exposure in just five months after a few of its comics went viral receiving hundreds of thousands of views in a couple of days.
