In this strip, why the hell not? Give her a palace and a coach & four, too. Although with a few alterations, she could complete her transformation to the little girl in The Ring.

More like what are the chances that it's completely irrelevant because this will all be called off or retconned so the characters can stay exactly the same age forever?

We just had a strip about a kid getting eaten by an alligator less than 24 hours after an actual kid got eaten by an actual alligator, and Dilbert still manages to be the most tone-deaf strip of the day.

Luann   While that one's the most aggressive, it does match the general feeling over there. Because it would be awful if a single college girl went on a date with a guy she wasn't completely in looooooove with and gently caress him for being the only person in this strip (besides Tiff) willing to directly tell somebody he likes them. Dude might have hidden depths, though. He can read papers while looking at the back, for example. The Amazing Spider-Man  Just want to point out that he calls her Mrs. Parker, but he still thinks she's married to Dr. Strange. Sally Forth  Is that a Captain America reference? I didn't catch the last couple of movies. The Heart of Juliet Jones

Johnny Aztec posted:What would the impact be for an egg that fell that far? Given that the farm in question has been depicted above the clouds, Sluggo would be dead if it wasn't a comedy strip. e: If you ballpark the building height at 400 m (probably an underestimate considering the Empire State Building is 381 m) and the egg at a reasonable .05 kg it's hitting at a speed of roughly 319 km/hr.

The egg would be hard-boiled by the time it reached Sluggo due to air friction creating an immense amount of heat. His head would be caved in, and the egg would lodge itself several feet into the sidewalk after piercing the rest of his body. Nancy would have severe injuries from the shrapnel and concussion wave caused by the impact.

You forget that sluggo is a poor, starving orphan, and his ability to eat hard-boiled eggs is > 1200 HBM, at least three orders of magnitude over the baseline. For comparison, you get a number below 0.1 HBM when assessing Smash Mouth

My friend was shooting film for awhile recently just for the hell of it. There's plenty of places that will do it. He even got one of his dad's old cameras that still had a roll in it he got developed with something like 30 year old film in it.

It's a pretty ubiquitous term for young people in general, I hear it all the time on campus from people I wouldn't really consider nerdy. Basically it's a way to easily tell a person who thinks its worse to be temporarily annoyed or inconvenienced by someone reminding their friend that "fag" and "oval office" are probably bad things to call people or that a black person might not be comfortable in a group that keeps making racist jokes, than for someone to actually do those things.
