I'm not saying the characters are poorly written, this big old speech just didn't seem particularly entertaining, interesting or amusing in any sort of way, and the whole thing doesn't seem to fit Roy, in my opinion.

I guess part of my problem with it is also that it doesn't really seem to be something that somebody just comes up with then and there, and the fact that at the end he's all, "But my philosophy that I just spent a whole comic explaining is probably dumb because..." makes me inclined to believe that he'd have to make it up then and there.
