![]() Speaking as a feminist who is child free by choice, if a woman wants to get married and have kids, that's great. It doesn't make her more of a ditz or less valid than a woman like me who chose to go to work and not have kids and live for myself. The whole point is that women should be able to CHOOSE which route she takes. And I'm sure we've all heard the sexist joke about the pretty girl just going to college so she could get her MRS degree, but whatever, that's a choice too. Stefani is a pain in the rear end for a lot of reasons, but I don't appreciate the "stay at home moms are stupid and they suck" attitude that a lot of people take. Luann tends to be a very Family Values strip, so I didn't expect to see it here. And because I do hate Luann and tend to give absolutely no benefit of the doubt on interpretation as I read, the GoComics comments tend to be a decent barometer of how Team Evans want you to interpret their work. So here's today: ![]() She wants to be a mom! What a stupid idiot!

There is a way to read Tiffany as mocking Stefani, but I don’t think I have the mental pretzelcraft to maintain it for more than a moment.

This is just stupid. We know Dustin only wants to ask her out, maybe see if they click on the date. He's not asking her to marry him and have his children, so this is a complete overreaction. Skelley is such a hateful boomer. "Nothing means more in life than children". ![]() Hmm, yes, I see. ![]()

Selachian posted:Retail so this is way too close to how I lost my job last year. My last week started with rumours that our location was closing "soon" and our manager was MIA ('sick' and wouldn't answer our calls/texts/emails for days). We stopped getting deliveries full stop and the giveaway was when another location's manager came and took a bunch of our supplies without telling us why and avoiding eye contact. On Friday our manager comes in and tells us everything is fine and business as usual. When I finished my shift he corners me and tells me we were permanently closing that night. Zero notice for any of my coworkers that had family and kids. tldr: head office is evil and corrupt no matter where you're working.

Is it too late to ask Feuti to end the strip on a shot of Stewart's lifeless eyes and bullet-ridden corpse after one of the cast snaps and fulfills the American Dream?
|

No. Stewart is just an empty middle manager. He doesn't make the decisions. It'd mean nothing unless you left a boardroom awash in the blood of the C-Levels. Edit: Holy poo poo. I'm not going to steal the posters thunder, but Saturday's Mark Trail is amazing. Johnny Aztec fucked around with this message at 05:58 on Feb 8, 2020 |

There's something about the layout of the Tinkersons that makes every comic feel like seconds of silence pass inbetween every line. Maybe it'd help if the panels were arranged horizontally instead of 2x2, but I think the artist just has too much real estate to work with. Maybe they should be doing 3-panel strips. The above, you could probably do in 1 or 2 panels.

Yeah, out of all the annoying stuff in Dustin, this running 'joke' gets up my nose the most. Women just don't respond like that when a guy makes a pleasant, respectful approach to them. Perhaps Dustin's parents transmit their opinion that Dustin's utterly worthless by telepathy?
