What are you talking about. https://joshreads.com quote:One of my least favorite running Funky Winkerbean bits — amazingly, I do have a hierarchy — is jokes at the school that are set up by the teacher saying “Can anyone tell me [fairly obscure fact X]” in a way that really seems to strongly imply that the students have never encountered fact X in their curriculum, but he’s mad at them for not knowing the answer anyway, because it’s their fault they don’t know the name of, for instance, random Kuiper Belt objects off the top of their head. Anyway, did you know that this particular Kuiper Belt object isn’t even called Ultima Thule anymore? Science teacher dude whose name I forget hates kids, hates teaching, doesn’t keep up with his field of study, and probably should look into retiring as soon as possible, is what I’m saying.

I find it oddly reassuring that Batuik is literally just cribbing obscure factoids from old books he has lying around the house to act smug about how much smarter he is than kids these days.

One thing Always Sunny showed us is that if you're going to make your character an rear end in a top hat, you at least have to make them funny or charming. I think that's what Zelda is missing.

Mikl posted:Why are you two still together again? Between this and the previous "let's have an open relationship -- actually wait, I only meant for me to get more dick, not for you to get more pussy"... I mean, you clearly can't stand each other and are mutually terrible. Why are you still together? Sometimes in his wisdom, God chooses to make 2 people miserable instead of 4.
