Calaveron posted:I love the art in this strip because it's such a perfect window to the 90's. No joke: I wore that same exact outfit as the guy is wearing to my freshman prom (the only prom I ever went to) around the time of that strip. Paisley shirts were a thing in the early/mid-90s, and I was lookin' pretty fly with my paisley shirt, Dockers pants, and Skechers shoes at the prom. The two ladies I went with agreed

Gil The guy who spearheaded the March of Dimes effort. Retail  Either hire Mina or uh, man up and work those 100 hours like you said you would. No one's going to take you seriously if you don't stick to your word. Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog  Bleeker being irresponsible? That's well, not a first, but unusual. Dustin  Contrived joke setups gymnastics. On the Fastrack  If you admit that Dethany that just tells her she can underpay you and you'll still be happy. Safe Havens  No, I would guess "mystery chemicals" first since I've seen her drink a lot of those and not any alcohol.

TofuDiva posted:Ed's disconnect from reality is showing again. In the urban east coast area of the US where I live (not NYC), a one bedroom apartment is about 550-650 square feet, which is still pretty fine for multiple people. Oh, and if it's in a not horrible area and is near a bus line, it'll cost ya somewhere above US $1750/month plus utilities. Guess this comes from living in the frozen north where space is plentiful and all that but multiple people in a one bedroom apartment that size and that price sounds like my idea of hell, the -22C weather suddenly doesn't feel that cold, it could plainly, be worse.

Peanuts, in which Charlie Brown is still knotted with impotent rage. He's very good at it, and as an adult he'd have a great career in talk radio by now. Sports talk, of course.

Thorn (December 1-2, 1983)  That's it for 1983. Stay tuned for Spring 1984 semester. For those who wants to catch up, I have Imgur albums for all the Thorn strips that I have posted so far. Here's part 1 and part 2. Nina's Adventures (September 24, 1994)  Lucky Cow (March 22-24, 2004)

BlankIsBeautiful posted:9 Chickweed Lane 1/23/2003 Other than what I guess will be later revelations that show Juliette and Edna have a really weird relationship devoid of any sort of filter about sex that normally exists between mother and daughter, I will say those are likely the best teeth McEldowney has ever drawn. They still have pulpy dough faces, but the teeth actually look sort of human rather than hideous hellmaws.

We'll leave soon, but first, is there some way we can let everyone here know how much we hate them and this lovely planet? We'll go door-to-door if we have to, but if there's some quicker way that would be great."
