GOD, how I hate that fucking saying!  People who say this should just throw in the towel on life and put on an exit bag.

So, here's the new contest:  use the phrase "It is what it is." anywhere in the comic.  That's it.

Bonus points:

A reference to any Coen movie.

Extra bonus points: 

Any old comic you have that already has this phrase in it.

Have fun with it and I'll judge it whenever.

It is what it is...

Apparently two people have already used this phrase as the title for their (mediocre) series.

There's also a potential legitimate entry from choadwarrior in there.

The what mentioned above is total fiction. Please don't take it seriously!

I'm pleased to win a comic competition, and especially pleased that it involved a possible reference to a Coen movie. "Blood Simple" is one of my favorite movies.

I will take a little time to think up some idea for the next CC, and hope it's a good one.

Thanks, and the new CC is not far away.
