It was hugely embarrassing when my flatmate caught me reading a pornographic webcomic. Of course I was disbelieved and soundly mocked when I tried to claim that I read it for the plot.

Well, flatmate was right - I don't read it for the plot. I don't read it for the porn either, though. I find both to be mediocre at best.

What keeps me reading is the artist's commentary alongside every update. It's delightfully tongue-in-cheek, unafraid to mock the comic's unabashed use of cliché, or be self-critical when things didn't turn out quite as hoped for. I find it unfailingly witty and refreshing; and sometimes, the author's insights do help me to appreciate the other aspects of the comic more.

But I wouldn't say that anywhere except here, as it sounds even less believable than 'I read it for the plot'.

Sometimes it's best not to even try to justify why you like what you like. For one thing, when you rush to come up with explanations, your roommate has won because you're already on the defensive. It also buys into the idea that you have to justify liking things or explain to people until they understand you. You don't have to do any of that. Just shrug and act puzzled as to why anyone would care about what you do with your spare time.
