My parents brought me their newspaper today and asked me to explain a comic to them. Thinking it would maybe be Zits or something, I said sure. I was soon left just as baffled as they were. Perhaps you kind folks can figure it out for me? The gocomics commenters are just as baffled as we are. Moderately Confused by Jeff Stahler for February 28, 2020 ![]()

Well it's based on three things that everyone knows: 1. Cashews are the hoity-toitiest of nuts 2. Being eaten is very hoity-toity 3. Pecans are widely considered to be extremely judgmental, despite evidence to the contrary Hopefully this explains it.

Some Guy TT posted:Well now I'm not sure whether this was actually an intentional tribute or whether Allen was just going along with it. I'm extremely torn, because 1: James has put real-life people in his strips before, people he claims are friends of his, but he doesn't really seem to give a poo poo how they're portrayed beyond "hey look I drew you" but also... 2: That guy... doesn't look like Dr. Camel. And his evidence is... a blue shirt? I mean, with the Mark Trail filter ruining everything, it's hard to say who looks like whom. I guess he looks as much like Dr. Camel as I do, in that we both have brown hair and beards. But like, Dr. Camel's hair is curly. My hair is curly. Loren Coleman's is not. Loren Coleman looks like Hans Gruber. 3: James doesn't ever say "haha, you figured it out!" and gloat like he does when there's an intentional reference, he just says "thank you for reading my work" because he likes it whenever anyone pays attention to him. Making me think it was unintentional. But on the OTHER hand: 4: Loren Coleman ACTUALLY did write a book about hunting the Yeti. 5: He seems like exactly the sort of dude James would be into. But on the other OTHER hand: 6: Outside of having a Twitter, Loren Coleman doesn't seem to have any connections to social media, so including him makes no sense. 7: But neither does anything James Allen does. So in conclusion, Mark Trail is a land of contrasts.

Strontium posted:Dark Side of the Horse Legit though, dried oatmeal (and similar starches) can make a really good food-safe (and technically edible though not really palatable) glue! Great for artistic food projects.

Darthemed posted:Docks A little while back, but the Boondocks strips making fun of George Lucas are especially funny to me since Lucas eventually hired McGruder to help punch up the script for Red Tails, the Tuskegee Airmen movie he produced back in 2012. Supposedly they got along very well!

amigolupus posted:I like Phoebe's dad, and I wish Phoebe's parents appeared more. Phoebe's parents are great. I love that the comic doesn't try to do some "only kids can see magical stuff" kinda poo poo. Her parents know she's friends with a unicorn and sometimes gets into magical shenanigans and just roll with it.

Wasn't he completely convinced she was a spy? It wouldn't be at all surprising if she made a report if that was the case, thus not at all surprising that interrogator-guy knew provided he's working with her spy-manager. Moomin ![]()
