Trent posted:Man the copy/paste bits and random black mspaint squiggles are so bad. This is just unprofessional from a technical standpoint. At least something terrible-looking like reply all is consistent enough to call it a style rather than laziness or ineptitude. The Prince Valiant colourist does it too. I'd think a professional visual artist would have something better than a $99 Acer lcd or know enough to use the eyedropper when picking colours to make sure everything matches, but then I'm not a lazy piece of garbage. Well, I am, but I'm a lazy piece of garbage who occasionally gives a poo poo about his work. Consider this your Wake-Up Call Comix.   Hudson is aware that he's in a comic strip, but fortunately he is a dog and doesn't have the capacity for existential dread. Ballard Street  I'm imagining the solo from Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy here, and I absolutely cannot see this from Elizabeth's perspective because that song rules.

A gif panning between Sniff and tiny Moomin would make an awesome avatar. Also, poor Willie. I don't know if those twins are putting on an act or not, thinking he is there for them.

Bloom County This is going to get ugly. And septic. Calvin And Hobbes  Can you see the Peanuts influence? Can you, huh? Betty is like Stone Soup: Insufferable suburban pablum.  Official blurb: "Betty is a smart, savvy comic character who is unapologetically ordinary, happy and female. Betty is a truly modern woman - a wife, mother and working woman."

I'm just going to ignore that the strip called the frog-people "aliens". No.Darthemed posted:
I remember this got posted for a bit in one of the old threads, eventually stopping since nearly every other strip was some smug boomer "some gizmo" joke, like about how old fashioned maps were better than Google Maps or some other poo poo. Or was that Stone Soup?

Gil Does this explain everyone in Retail? Retail  Wow sweet I always wanted a volatile manager who flew off the handle at the slightest provocation. And we already knew you wouldn't have given him a raise since you pretty much flat out denied it without any consideration. Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog  I'm guessing this is going to lead to some real dog/robo dog shenanigans although we already had that theme come up a few times. Dustin  Buckle up, kids, we're in for a week of this. Although I admit I like that dog. On the Fastrack  Why does Breech keep getting assigned to this when she's an accounting executive? Safe Havens  What does she have that I don't???

If Rosa wants someone who's bold and spontaneous she should find someone who is and ditch Gunther instead of trying to change him. Honestly I'm not really sure what she ever saw in him in the first place.

I think he's what's her name's father, except he's not actual her father because Grandma hosed/fell in love with a Nazi. But I think he raised her, but was a bitter person because he knew she wasn't his daughter? I think. I don't know, I think last thread or tow threads ago somebody started posting this storyline, but stopped at some point (because it was terrible the first time, it was terrible when it was being reposted, and it's still terrible know in these reruns).

Tiggum posted:Yet another Chief Dharma where I have no idea what's going on. The reason the guy is a general manager when he has no apparent useful abilities or connections is because he's a serial sexual harasser. I know that makes no sense but I'm sure there's women who can back up having met these kinds of people on a regular basis while at work.

Fingerpori - I debated biology at university yesterday - Refugees aren't any dumber than Finns! - drat right they are! "Debating" is what we call completing and defending your doctoral thesis. The oral examination part or something. Whatever.  Fok_it  It's kind of annoying when Fok_it does jokes as culturally specific as this. Nuutinpäivä, St. Knut's Day, is celebrated in Finland and Sweden on 13 January (20 days after Christmas) to mark the end of the Christmas Peace which used to be a period when crimes were punished particularly harshly. A bit of etymology first. Joulupukki, Santa Claus, is actually literally translated as Christmas goat or "Yule buck", an old tradition that later got pretty much conflated with Santa Claus and eventually became the old guy in red robes we now know. The old name stayed, though. Knut's day ends Christmas, though, so the young men and women of the days of old decided to dress up as gangs of nuuttipukki, "Knut buck", wearing horns, masks, furs turned inside out and whatnot. These anti-Santas went from house to house, demanding to be let in and have the house's leftover Christmas beer and food. Refusing was socially frowned upon and could bring down the wraths of the bucks, so you had to weigh having your stuff broken and getting hit with a piss-drenched wooden scepter or something against allowing a gaggle of drunkards inside your house. Entertaining them with some of your beer did reward you with songs and prayers for good harvest, so there's that. Nowadays in some parts of Finland little kids may dress up in weird clothes and ask politely for candy or whatever. The deal with the seal pup? It's a kuutti. I suppose that counts as a pun.  The Finnish mark was used before we moved to the euro back in 2002. Some weird people still compare prices to what they were when we had marks while completely ignoring any changes in money value during the past 12 years.
