Some of those recipes are very slightly on the semi-homemade side of things. Like this one:Darthemed posted:Cheap Thrills Cuisine Buuut others like the brussels sprouts one are perfectly fine, will probably turn out really good and are pretty easy so on the whole, me and this strip, we cool.

Mister Beeg posted:Has anyone ever considered trying to cook anything from this strip? I'll admit that I was tempted to when I read the strip in my paper, but I never got around to it because we never had any necessary ingredients. I saved the one about turkey cabbage rolls so that I can make it later. The loaded baked potato soup looks pretty good, but not quite as good as just having some loaded baked potatoes. Seems pretty hit-or-miss, but I like it and I hope Darthemed never stops posting it.

Midnight Moth posted:Slylock Fox The only thing I can come up with (after spending more time looking at this than I'd care to admit to) is because her hat matches her purse and shoes. I'm not sure how this would really rule out her stealing the hat today, though. Edit: I feel like the answer probably relates to the water dripping from his umbrella, but can't see any indication of her hat being wet or dry.

LtStorm posted:The "ravening beast" strips really creep me out. It's like Brooke is trying to romanticize men being uncontrollable rapists and women should totally want to have that effect on them. Thank you! These strips have been driving me nuts but until now I haven't been able to verbalize why. Other good Brooke comments- that person a while back who wrote he's from the school of writers that think sexual aggressiveness is the only positive character trait strong female characters need. Wanamingo posted:Nancy Explains a lot about Gilchrist too. BlankIsBeautiful posted:Also, this. I liked it starting out, but now I'm thoroughly confused. Off the top of my head- the main guy is detecting something in the future. At some point the chick has figured out she's been reincarnated in a new organic body with her old brain and is just being a goofy spaz about it. The bald guy is explaining what's actually going on to the main detective character who apparently hasn't been keeping up on the latest technological trends. I think the mystery has something to do with an image that came from the hamburger. Not sure what the chick and the bald guy's relationship to the investigation is. Maybe they're the ones who hired him? That doesn't actually make a lot of sense now that I've written it out. Still easier to keep track of than Jane's World, though. Comics (January 23rd 2007) All right, I think I've finally figured out how future generations will define the kitsch culture 2000's. The decade not the century. Ugh, how did people describe that decade a hundred years ago?

Maybe they're the ones who hired him? I think the mystery they're being hired for is to find out how and why the woman was cloned, and the hamburger is there just because Zachary is burgin'. I'm not liking the comic too much, to be honest. I am starting it from the very beginning, though, so I'll give it a chance and keep posting it at least until the end of the first arc.

Gil I dunno, your hair looks pretty dumb for starters and you can really do better than that turtleneck getup. Retail  Is this week like recap or  week because I'm pretty sure Retail has done some variant of all these before.Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog  You'd think Karl would be immune to that stuff by now. Dustin  Turns out bad people exist. On the Fastrack  An incompetence plea? And I'm sure clunky malware is still malware. Safe Havens  I don't think that was a great idea considering you have a young kid to take care of and presumably he wouldn't want his mom dying 10 years from now. Now you have to time-travel to the past to prevent yourself from time-traveling to the future.

Pakled posted:Everett True "Brown bread" obviously means something different here to the definition I'm used to, which is just wholemeal bread. Is this an American thing, or a 100 years ago thing or what? And what does "brown bread" actually refer to here? Rye bread? Does "white bread" mean any wheat bread, whether it's made of wholemeal or white flour? Midnight Moth posted:Slylock Fox Because she's a noble, upstanding lynx, not some filthy rat or raccoon.

And what does "brown bread" actually refer to here? Rye bread? Does "white bread" mean any wheat bread, whether it's made of wholemeal or white flour? In the past, white bread was considered a luxury (since it discards so much of the wheat and requires more processing and sifting, and then it's bleached too) and white fluffy bread wasn't what most people used, they used whole meal flour and the resulting bread was darker and denser, and healthier but back in those days they didn't know that and white probably equaled healthy in most peoples minds. About a century ago was about when typical white flour was becoming affordable for your average folks I believe.

Trilobite posted:I can't really answer that first question -- figuring out what the gently caress happened in Zippy is rarely easy (or worth it, honestly) -- but yeah, it seems to be a guest artist. Conrad Neruig? Something like that? I can't really read the signature in the gutter. Conrad Nervig, which is the name of a Hollywood editor (first winner of the editing Oscar back in the 30s) who died in 1980 and was not in the habit of drawing cartoons as far as I know. This whole thing is just what Griffith has decided he wants to be doing this week. I like it. A lot of the time (though not always) it's best to just take Zippy as a parade of inscrutable Americana, I think.

"Fletcher and Tanya" is the most popular comic strip in the Pinhead world, and all it is is Fletcher n' Tanya saying 40s and 50s advertising copy. It's not a guest artist, it's a strip within a strip.
