Why....why would Rudy suddenly see his girlfriend as his loving sister when they've literally dated almost the entire comic run?

Hell yeah, thank you! This morning, my dad told me how he specifically remembered that exact date as one of the most pointedly unfunny jokes of his childhood, glad to know it was almost exactly how he described it.

If it were me who was staying with a boyfriend and their family, I'd either think that Christmas morning with them is incredibly domestic or imagine that this must be what us being married feels like. My guess is that Holbrook wanted to write a joke where Fiona was feeling insecure about her relationship with Rudy, and then proceeded to ignore literally everything he wrote about the two. It's stupid because not only have the two been dating for almost two decades, we also spent a couple weeks going over how the only reason Fiona is staying with the Dewclaws is because Rudy was

Mämmilä Merry Christmas you filthy animals, Mämmilä is back! And we continue where we left off: formerly employee-owned Nappila is now Ekox with a new CEO Ulf Ekman and owned by faceless shareholders somewhere, with Anja Koskinen suspecting further vicissitudes down the road. Leevi Pikkula, local sportsman and an ex of Anja is his usual self and doesn't really understand what's going on.

In other parent chat my mom used Caspar Milquetoast as a proper noun the other day to refer to a milquetoast person (specifically Tore Hund in Beforeigners), which surprised me as she's too young to have seen the reference directly. She misidentified him as a Thurber character when I asked about it and seemed disinterested when I showed her an example comic.Alhazred posted:Zelda This particular Zelda is very counterintuitively quaint in that it assumes Trump losing and the COVID-19 vaccine are, on their own, unambiguous changes for the better that won't backfire horribly. quote:Intet Nytt Fra Hjemmefronten Before we head off into the new year I'm just curious- why do you use the Swedish title instead of All Quiet on the Homefront?

In swedish it would be 'Inget nytt ifrån hemmafronten', massively different, almost unrecognizeably so!  Or something along those lines. Mummitrollet

Dykes to Watch Out For #125 (1991) As mentioned before, the feminist record company Olivia Records had pivoted to becoming a travel agency in 1988 as it slipped behind contemporary music trends. Is Shocking Beige a reference to something in particular? I can't tell. Note that somewhat uncommonly Bechdel compensates for her comic being black and white by specifying the color of the tissue paper-- not super graceful but I guess she had to communicate the image somehow. I think the best gag in this one is "Neat Ritual Objects for Your Den!"
