Slammy posted:Oaky Doaks July 27, 1936 That last panel feels like it's straight out of Three Stooges or Marx Brothers. A+ comedic delivery.

readingatwork posted:Crabgrass One change I like between the versions, is that the former kind of falls into the comic dialogue writing mistake of bolding way too many words. The revisions get rid of a lot of the unnecessary bolding, leaving it just on the words that would naturally be emphasized when speaking the lines out loud.

Tho not a left and right squabble, this thread felt like a circular firing squad over a Pearls Before Swine strip for a bit.

Calaveron posted:That's almost good advice. This Mary Worth advised a person to stay with their borderline abusive alcoholic boyfriend who threatened to murder her beloved cat. When a little old man's beloved dog died, Mary bullied him relentlessly into immediately replacing it with a new dog, even though he wasn't ready and didn't want to. Les would bum Mary out with his constant moping, so she'd push him into getting a new wife to replace Lisa ASAP, regardless of where he was in his grieving process. (Mary, Les, and Batiuk will all have forgotten that Les already has a replacement wife.)

Kids eating green apples is one of those stock jokes that have disappeared completely. It seems like it used to be a leading cause of child death back in the 1920s.
