this is so dumb and I love it

So I thought Dethany saw something important and rushed away, and everyone else just thought she was rushing for the bathroom, but she actually was... only in order to wash her hands though. Either that, or she habitually doesn't flush, except when the flush mechanism is interesting and old-fashioned (does the Tracy team think that's what goth is about?).

Also, how do the goons know the bathroom is out of order? If they'd ever tried to flush they would have found the money. Where'd they go all this time?

More to the point; why would the goon warn her that it’s not working? Why would he care?! No, I don’t think he knew the money was there, the comic isn’t clever enough to add another layer to this storyline.

If Dethany had seen where the money was, her leaving her boyfriend still tied up and gagged would have at least made some sense because Dethany's terrible like that. But no, she seriously just left him there just to use the bathroom. It's loving nonsensical and makes Dethany look even worse than before. :psyduck:

Peanuts (August 23, 1973...and the fanfic in question would be titled "The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Musician", by the way.)





There is, actually, a tv-film (from Play for the Day called 'The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Piano Player.' It was transmitted in 1973, I think, and starred Ray Davies. I have it in my Kinks :filez: but dunno if anyone's uploaded it to Youtube or Dailymotion in its entirety.

It does not, however, feature Ray determinedly playing piano whilst a lovelorn girl hangs around.

No one knows where that picture originally came from. I read an article the other day where the writer tried to find out. He talked to restaurant owners, wholesalers, printers and trademark specialists, researched trademark and stock image databases. No dice.

Classic Kevin and Kell (March 18-22, 1996)





First appearance: Majorie and Manny Ursal. They're recurring characters, but don't really get involved in the overall plot: they'll have their own small plot arc wayyyy later, in 2001, when they're going to reconcile with their daughter (and her husband and son), whom they'd thrown out of their home for being a vegetarian.

It took much longer than that for people actually hating it, but I remember having lost the interest around George Takei story which was after two years.

Normally I just scroll past Intelligent Life but I happened to look at it today, and it's amazing how little the characters are emoting now that we can't see their giant grins or blowjob mouths. Especially since Reddick is incapable of drawing anyone not in a "3/4-view mid-torso arms-firmly-at-sides" stance.

You know, sometimes friends talk poo poo about each other in a joking manner. "Hur hur, is she training the dog or is the dog training her" is low-key friend ribbing that, while super-lame as friend-burns go, isn't a big deal and doesn't make me worry about the friendship dynamics.

But yesterday they were talking about Luann's would-be boyfriend training her like a dog and today they are talking about Bernice regarding Luann as a pet. It's... it's kind of icky.
