Yeah I don't get it. Why does anyone care if the comic was set up that way and if other people copied it. It's not funny? It's not anything?

It's an in-joke.

The comic used to be big in the ~2000s nerd space, mostly by being one of the earlier video game focused webcomics that hit it big. The author had/has a.... polarizing personality and the comic itself went from dick jokes and game references to super serious miscarriage storyline at the drop of a hat.

Que endless satire.

I have never understood the meme but that clues me in a bit, thank you.

Fyi, it's "Cue endless satire."

Que is Spanish for "what" and is pronounced similar to Kay.

Queue is a bunch of extra letters standing in line after the "Q"

Cue is "it's time" - imagine an actor backstage being poked with a pool cue to get them going.

Mmm I don't understand this meme either. And I don't really understand what the fuss was about the comic either.
