I mean, she's looking right at Erin's picture on the wall. And Erin has blood-related previous, after all. Also I just noticed Lottie added herself to the wall. ![]()

FrumpleOrz posted:Frazz Blech. Yeah, I think I'm done posting Frazz and I'm gonna drop it. I doubt anyone is going to object. I thought Frazz was ok basically up until I discovered the janitor's backstory, and then it seems like it just suddenly got way loving worse. I assume I just wasn't paying that much attention until then, but man. Julet Esqu posted:Ahh, NOW we can finally swing it around to it* being Bets fault for posting video and pics of her and Gunt cosplaying and having fun at a public event. (She DOES have a tendency to start streaming and posting without telling him, but he hasn't told her to give him a heads up before she hits the stream button and seems to enjoy the attention, so whatevs.) I really don't understand why the commentators hate Bets so much (I mean, I have some suspicions, but you know). She's one of the few even somewhat decent characters in the entire strip, and even with a few flaws (like, yeah, give your SO a heads up before streaming) she's a way better person than all the main characters. And they've been down on her since the very first time she showed up! Way before we even saw this flaw. Edit: readingatwork posted:Calvin and Hobbes (Dec 22-23, 1986) I forgot to mention this one, but I was always amused by it. A while ago I took a ceramics class and at one point, unsure what to do and with some time and clay, I just punched an ashtray into being. Talking with my neighbouring fellows, we discussed this very concept. I mostly use it to burn incense on occasion. catlord fucked around with this message at 23:19 on Jan 22, 2020 |

I haven't had anything to post in a while so here's this, with a note that while Oz's title seems a little suspect I did triple-check that was more correct than not and then figured it was amusing enough not to editorialise. Also, I expect to soon receive a package of a certain vintage New Zealand comic which I will endeavour to scan and post as quickly as I can. Q-Rais ![]()

Here, I’ll write the next two months of nancy: First panel, Nancy says something egotistical and self centered Second panel, other character will make an observation remarking how she’s being egotistical and or self centered or will make a sarcastic remark pointing out she’s being a self centered egotist Third panel, Nancy will say something that reaffirms her being self centered and egotistical

Cheer Up Boss Dharma![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I tried to using imgBB today since imgur was dying back when I translated these. Seems really good actually. Reasonably resizes giant images and everything I posted came back in a single easily copy-pasted box. Also the bbcode hotlinks to the original source. I'm not sure how useful that is but it seems like a much better site than imgur, what with its constant crashes and front page loading slowing everything down.

I got to say, I'm enjoying how the Mystery Kids are all back together and solving this case. The past few stories usually had one or two of them missing or not contributing to the case so I'm really liking this. Julet Esqu posted:They are generally siding with Gunther over Luann, which is correct for them to do because she is wrong in this situation. There is, however, also a segment who blames Tiffany for blabbing. I assume these must be brand new readers, otherwise how could they not recognize the hypocrisy here, when nobody else in the strip has any hesitation in calling Tiffany a slut, even though she has never had a single boyfriend or real love interest in the many years I have been reading this strip. Ahhhh, there we go. gently caress Luann, and gently caress the comments section. catlord posted:I really don't understand why the commentators hate Bets so much (I mean, I have some suspicions, but you know). She's one of the few even somewhat decent characters in the entire strip, and even with a few flaws (like, yeah, give your SO a heads up before streaming) she's a way better person than all the main characters. And they've been down on her since the very first time she showed up! Way before we even saw this flaw. It's exactly what you suspect it is. From what I remember of the Mordock comments that got posted here, they started hating Bets because she got mad at Gunther for taking that phone call from Luann (who was actively sabotaging Gunther back then by implying they're together) during their date. It was something along the lines of "How DARE this female get mad at Gunther for spending time with his friends! Doesn't she know that soon they'll also be her friends? She should make a better first impression!" Then Team Evans kept trying to add more and more flaws to Bets to make everyone hate her. From being "greedy" by being the one to propose getting paid for helping Tiff sell her old clothes, to being okay that she takes a 50% cut from Tiff's sales (never mind that Gunther does the same and feels no remorse about it), and now streaming without asking Gunther first. And yet Bets is still one of the more likable characters of Luann. Batiuk got the two female characters out of the way so they don't get a say in Cancerwife the Movie, but the only thing they can talk about is more loving Les Moore. And I'm not sure why Les' wife suddenly feels threatened here. She got into a marriage knowing full well that Les will always put St. Lisa first, and her second. I love that Jeremy's dad found the whole thing funny in the end. ![]()

Folks, Nancy was never very good. It was always repetitive gags about some bratty kids. It's just that under Gilchrist's hand, it was so much worse. Anyway, Juliet Jones, in which we see that Pop can tell a woman's age in half a minute, and he does. ![]()
