coronatae posted:"Cheats on his diet" when he hasn't even started to try. This is the most invested I've ever been in Rex Morgan I'm angry at Buck but in a good way because we're clearly supposed to be thinking he's a moron. Not like Ed who cheats on his diet and is treated like an everyman hero. Or the Tinkersons dad, who also cheats on his diet but is also shown as being self aware of his poor decision making skills and is otherwise making a sincere effort.

The Dinette Set loves the classics. Working Daze is an air travel hazard.  Super-Fun-Pak Comix celebrates one of the greats.  Cul De Sac has come back around to one of the greatest comics of all time.  Musical accompaniment!

Today got hosed and I've been too lazy, so The Shadow and Flyin' Jenny should be back in the next update (I'll toss in an extra of each, and gently caress I still gotta do a Sunday dump of Flyin' Jenny at some point too). So, until I'm less exhausted, here's Axa  Gee, I wonder why she's feeling anger, hostility, and fear?

I've been playing through Dragon Quest Builders 2 lately and this speaks to me since you're often put in a situation where everyone else is living in dirt houses with a rock for a chair and then you get better materials and build one out of brick with curtains and a sofa.

Considering how it's been said that the mission control is worried that one of the crew got replaced by a shapeshifter, you'd think they'd be more stringent with their tests and realize how hosed up DNA Wizard's cells are from her years of experimenting on herself. The Bloop posted:loving poo poo Holbrook It's a fairly large branch, but A) it's not even part of their house and all their rooms are located inside the tree trunk, and B) the nearest house is far enough away that it won't even fall on it.

 So clearly Luann kept it quiet because Tara asked her to, so good for her. Not sure why the need for absolute secrecy, though. They're all adults, so it's not crazy for one to crash at another's home on a school night. Sure, Bernice will be a judgy rear end in a top hat about it, but she's going to be that no matter what you do. ETA: Never mind. I thought about it for two seconds, and yeah. Bernice is going to be a judgy nosy rear end in a top hat about it, and who wants to explain their whole sordid life story to loving Bernice? Nobody, that's who. (She will be an incredibly unsuccessful shrink one day.) So yeah, keeping it quiet was likely a good move. Julet Esqu fucked around with this message at 05:38 on Feb 2, 2021 |

I am shocked that they brought back Tara. I assumed we'd never see her again since she's a fun character who bounces off the complete sticks in the mud that is everyone else, and we can't have that in Luann.

Hold the phone, what's this about Luann being good at keeping secrets? She's absolutely the last person you would want to tell anything. Bernice's brother asked her to keep his worries about Bernice not spending time with him and his kids a secret, and Luann blabbed about it to Jack first thing.

I think the joke is "Jeremy's mom is going to make some cocoa so she'll have something to drink while Jeremy explains what he's doing, since it will take a long time. Jeremy actually just wanted her to leave him alone, which is why he said it would take a long time to explain."

Huh. I just read it as she wanted to do something nice for him because he was clearly working hard on something difficult that was important to him and she wanted to be supportive, not that she was literally expecting him to explain it to her. Basically the opposite of those gags we see where a parent gives their kid a hard time for doing something productive on account of it being out of character.

Rhymes with Orange Get Fuzzy 2/1/01  Brenda Starr 10/25-27/45    Smokey Stover 5/22 and 24/39 (see below)   So for May 23, Holman *finally* draws an African (as opposed to Smokey in blackface) and, well, it’s just about as bad as you might think. I went back and forth on whether to post it, even under spoilers, and finally decided, nah. The actual joke is pretty innocuous, so here it is in text form: quote:Panel 1: Elvis's Poor Almanac  Bonus ad!

I get why people use the spoiler tags, and I don't begrudge anyone for it, but they make the thread hard to read and they can get ridiculous sometimes. Like I'm playing Where's Woggo sometimes figuring out where the offensive material even if it's somewhere in the background. I would rather have less spoiler tags in general saving them for the really bad stuff like Smokey's well spoken African or the Colonel running around with his gun. Which is to say, comics that aren't even getting posted at all under current thread culture. Although if anyone is very bothered by triggering images or worried about them being seen at work, by all means post. At present I'm not totally sure we even have anyone in that situation. edit: proofreading errors Some Guy TT fucked around with this message at 10:52 on Feb 2, 2021 |

It's weird to think of a column written by the same person over several decades as having differing values. I remember the nineties ones I read as a kid as having fairly reasonable sounding advice at least.

Does anyone have that Creeps comic where they talk about how smart they are for figuring out that cat food is made of cats because logically, why else cats would be on the cover? I've been thinking of that storyline infrequently ever since hearing about the Quillette guy who just thought there was a dog on the packaging of his shampoo for no reason.

Classic Kevin & Kell (May 17-21, 1999)     I ain't gonna repeat the whole thing I posted a while back about Episode I, but for those who weren't there or were too young to remember, it was super big. One of the most anticipated movies of the year. Just an observation: it's notable that Rudy calls it "The middle Star Wars trilogy" in 1999 since no one was even considering making Episodes VII-IX yet. (Lucas had said on many occasions he wanted to make nine movies total, but they still weren't on the table.) Mikl fucked around with this message at 12:21 on Feb 2, 2021 |

My VHS copy of the OT begins with a long intro discussing the in-progress PT and Lucas's plan for "at least 3" movies after Jedi. Back in 99 people would think you were crazy if you told them how long Episode VII was going to take. Also, credit where credit is due, this is a pretty decemt way of having topical content with a lead time.

All this talk about Dear Abby reminded me that Wilbur from Mary Worth writes for a newspaper column where he pretends to be someone named Wendy and gives other women relationship advice of all things. Not to mention that one time, his advice managed to destroy a woman's marriage and she tried to sue him.
