You are a *silly* *camper*. Lindsey is from *outside*. You do not know *special things*. Here is some. *Time* is not one but many. *Space* is many. *Colors* are many. You are so *sticky*. You cannot *slide* like Lindsey from *outside* to *inside* and *in between*. It is sad, but Lindsey can *pull* the *campers* after being *connected*. This is soon.

*Campers* think that Lindsey is *many bubbles*. It is so *silly*! Soon, though, it will be time for *spicy games* at the *house*! But do not ask about *leaks*. *Leaks* in the *dorm* make Lindsey too much *frumple*. So bad!

I'm not sure exactly what is going on with these last few posts, but I'm getting some serious Instruction for a Fruit vibes. And that is not a bad thing.

Sorry, in jokes are only ever cool for the people who are in on them. We were referencing the Orz, a race of multidimensional being(s) projected into what we know of as reality. Their language is difficult to translate, so the translation computer is forced to use best-guess matches, designated in *asterisks*, which often heavily obfuscates the intended meaning and leaves the true nature of the Orz mainly a mystery. Star Control 2 (and the remake The Ur-Quan Masters) is an awesome game. Instruction for a Fruit was pretty awesome, too. Edit: vvv Yeah, that's what I meant by putting the plural in parentheses. And while SC3 is indeed terrible, playing SC1 is alright but it isn't really necessary to enjoy SC2. SC2 is by far the most enjoyable of the series.

It's actually not clear whether they're a race of beings, or just one being called Orz who looks like multiple beings because of how it intersects with our reality. Do look into Star Control 2. Just... don't bother with the third game.

I think the Kat-talking-about-real-life-things (The Prodigy, Metal Gear Solid) are always my least favorite bits because of how out of place they feel in a world that exists so far removed from anything resembling real life, they just seem like author indulgence. Willing to make an exception this time though

Just like with every new chapter, I tried to keep myself from reading until a week or two had gone by to get a whole bunch at once, and just like in every chapter I failed miserably. I'm glad this time, though.

I like the end-of-chapter pages specifically because they're author indulgence. Tea-san gets to do something different for the comic, we get a new and frequently weird kind of strip that is intentionally outside the tone and context of the rest of the strip, so it's all just one happy melange of stuff without the usual webcomic "now I feel like doing drama so HERE IS A SAD THING IN YOUR GAG A DAY STRIP" nonsense. Swords is the best.

I'm assuming the end of this one would make sense to me if I'd watched Princess Mononoke Like that Renardine turned back into a wolf mid-movie.

Moro was a giant wolf goddess. She laments the slow loss of her tribe and land to encroaching humans. She comes to terms with this by eating them. Also go watch Princess Mononoke, like right now. The dub is excellent.

^^ Ahhh, beaten. For the uninitiated, Princess Mononoke is an environmentalist fable. It pits the animal gods of the forest and the titular feral girl against a (surprisingly not straw-manned) industrially expanding human settlement.  Moro, pictured here, is the wolf god and San/Mononoke's adoptive mother. I won't spoil anything, but she's a very badass figure in the film. Honestly, Princess Mononoke is a very safe recommendation for anyone who enjoys the major themes of Gunnerkrigg Court. And anyone else. But I don't know why anyone else would be in this thread.

YggiDee posted:The dub is excellent. It is indeed. Gillian Anderson (Scully from X-Files) is the voice of Moro, and John DiMaggio (Bender from Futurama) does a voice, as well as Billy Bob Thornton, Billy Crudup, Claire Danes, and Minnie Driver. Pretty good lineup.

Volume's 1 and 3 (Pre-order) are currently $17.79 on Amazon. My book 1 just arrived, and it looks gorgeous. I can't believe I didn't buy it sooner (although $27 was a little bit of a hard sell). Volume 2 is still $499.99 at Amazon, but Tom said that should change if it gets a reprint. Although I think I may be able to find it for $27 at a local store.

Pretty sure that's caused by independent sellers running bots that aggregate supply/price data on their stock from various places online and generate high-profit listings. It works fine as long as the item's had a large enough print run to make second-hand prices match demand, but for smaller runs there's so little data that the figures get really out of whack. You see it a hell of a lot on Amazon, and the giveaway is always when there are two or more generic sellers offering the same ludicrous price with 0.01c difference where they automatically undercut each other.

Please note that a dog is not a body pillow, and any attempts to use one as such will lead to back pain within four hours.

Judging by the sugar cube shrine on this new chapter's title page, it looks like Annie is going to be giving and taking some LSD. Her time in the forest must have turned her into more of a hippie than we thought.
