Each day, Fruhlinger selects 2 to 8 comics for occasional praise as well as snark on features such as bizarre artwork, nonsensical plots, and supposed sexual subtext / innuendo. Long running soap opera-style comic strips generally get the brunt of Fruhlinger's humor, such as perennial favorites ''Apartment 3-G'', ''Mark Trail'', and ''Mary Worth'', a fixation which he attributes to them being "() perfect targets for the sort of metatextual detached irony that is our generation’s terrible contribution to Western civilization."
He also touches on long-running legacy cartoons like ''Family Circus'' and ''B.C.'' on occasion. Weekly metaposts update readers on notable events in Fruhlinger's life, such as his July 22, 2008, appearance〔 (LINK )〕 on the game show ''Jeopardy!'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=J! Archive - Show #5512, aired 2008-07-22 )〕 offer critical commentary on the comic strip industry, and judge posters to the blog in a "Comment Of The Week" contest. The blog's original name was "Josh Reads the Comics so You Don't Have To", which is reflected in the site URL, joshreads.com.
