The readers of The Oatmeal will likely agree with this assessment, as all the work — and website — seems designed to feed and fuel that specific personality type.
Yet, judging by the number of people who don't like the work and the number of people who don't know what they're talking about when they talk about it, there are some who say McCloud is a "Mythbuster" in the making.
Here are 10 examples.
1. The "McCloud" in McCloud is a nickname, not a pen name.
The guy's real name is Matthew Inman, and, in fact, he is the same person who created the popular Facebook page "The Oatmeal" with his wife, Lisa.
2. He's not a natural writer.
Inman says he didn't study writing in college. He prefers to learn things by doing them, not by reading about them. He prefers to read about things he already knows, not things he doesn't know.
And that's what makes him an excellent writer.
