My alma mater shitcanned football in 1997, but does any university do letter jackets anymore, and does anyone wear their full sports uniforms (like cheer ones) outside game day or like the activities fair? At my high school everyone wore letter jackets and the cheer and dance teams would wear uniforms on Fridays but [I]high school[I]. College everyone just wears hoodies or track jackets with their name/number/sport on 'em.

I work at a university, and no, there's not a letter jacket to be seen. (You can still tell the jocks because they're the ones with fancy team backpacks.)

no, the Evanses have no idea what college is like and seem to think it's basically just "high school but you don't live at home, unless you do"

I only have excellent ideas
When I was an undergrad almost every girl I knew had some kind of stuffed animals or cutesy pillow or blanket from home. People get homesick at college and want something to remind them of home. I definitely had a little totoro plush on my nightstand throughout all four years that an ex had given me.

I'm pretty sure DNA Wizard and her crew took everything in their shelter along with them when they abandoned Mars, so I'm not sure how the dodos are even able to take a picture, much less send it to these bozos.


Was this the rabbit "hate group" whose high crime was trying to overturn the system so they would no longer be in danger of being murdered and cannibalized, or did K&K have some other hate group that I don't know about?

The only way I can see Team Evans being so out of touch with normal people making sense is if they were stuck in a bunker for a decade or two.

unfortunately i don't think bechdel ever 100% truly got over her weird hangups about trans people. :smith: i know there was a bit of a thing at one point about her endorsing a book called 'adam' which was about a cis dude pretending to be a trans man so he could have sex with lesbians, among other things which i'm not at length to really speak about with experience. it was published in 2014, for a reference on time.

like i wouldn't say she's out-and-out hateful towards the trans community by any stretch, but i also wouldn't entirely trust her in relation to it. it's a really, incredibly bad book.

Oh dear.

On a more enjoyable note, in today's Corto Maltese!: 'Those terms are acceptable' - Shaghai Lil, or Shanghai Lil forgets about conservation of momentum, or I don't think the Chinese and Mongolians are going to be very happy with you, Lil

It might have been the TERF-analog hate group that hated a wolf that transitioned into being a sheep. Or the racist-analog hate group that hated the farmer wolf for farming and not being a herbivore.

No, I think this was the white supremacist-analog that hated the hedgehog and bat for having an interspecies baby.

Whom they thwarted by showing that the bigots, themselves, were not purebred and thus were instantly defeated in the court of public opinion.

Edit: nevermind, this one was solved by Kevin just hitting them with a big shovel.

An evil racism/miscagation storyline where one partner is royalty would be very topical given how the Brits treat Meghan Merkal and Prince Henry. So, of course, Holbrook hosed up that idea too.

Edit: I still don't know how I know that one of them is a princess somehow.

why is foob even pretending to act like the 16 year old kid wanting a motorcycle is even remotely reasonable in some effort to try and drive home a stupid point. it should probably begin and end at 'you're literally about to be barely old enough to drive, you are not even remotely mature enough to handle that'

like for as petty and weird as it typically is i'm surprised the joke of 'kid wants a motorcycle' has been stretched out past one strip, except until i remember that every situation in the comic is supposed to boil down to 'lynn's family is ungrateful and causes her anxiety' barring the occasional positive one thrown in to maybe try and give off the impression that she actually cares for her family like she's probably supposed to. which we know isn't even true given how she's basically been disowned by everyone around her for varying reasons.

It's one of those details that is so loving stupid that you can't help but remember it. Like the fact that Kevin's sister is actually dead, and her human counterpart in an alternate dimension crossed over and took her place.

I think it might be Lynn trying to hammer the point home that wanting to do your own thing is bad, and your controlling mother knows best? I read a bit of the old Foob mock-threads, and it treated Elizabeth going away to focus on her career and dating other guys as a bad thing, and her Happy Ending was to settle down and marry this gormless shlub.
