To be fair it's 2014 and most well off people who are under age 55 get their news from various online sources. The closest I come to "watching news" is a clip that is linked to from a thread.

Ugh, I keep forgetting that it's not 1995 anymore. This magic picture box betrays me at every turn. :doh:

And here is the most loving surreal Compu-Toon I've seen. I'm from Mississippi, and when I read it I thought, "Oh, there must be plenty of podunk towns named Tupelo." Then I looked up where Boyce actually lives. He lives in Olive Branch, Mississippi, meaning he's about an hour from the Birthplace of The King, Tupelo, MS. Which I grew up also an hour away from.

It is doubly surreal to now know that not only the guy that does Lucky Cow but also Boyce both live in Mississippi.

Oh Jesus, Brooke, the Arabesque thing again? :suicide:

I just realized why this rung a bell deep in my memory pile by combining "Inexplicable reference to the word 'Arabesque' with 'hideous comic.'" I remembered it because of Areba Koala and his sister Arabesque. I'm starting to think Brooke is just going down the definition list of the word "Arabesque" to make comics. I suppose in a few days we're going to see some loving Arabesque architecture to cap off this Trifecta of poo poo that Brooke is pushing.

Eh, I'm not sure at this point. It's not really gotten rolling yet, and that is a big negative. It's dragging out longer than an Apartment 3-G. It's still pretty tolerable.
