Maintaining is in eternal reruns, and is surprisingly restrained with the hands today.


Making It

"Get a Job? Get a Tan? That is the eternal question at the heart of Making It, the comic strip by Keith Robinson. At one end of the scale is Normy, a beach bum who lives for lying on the sand, listening to the roar of the ocean. On the other is C.J. Silverwood, IV, MBA, a bottom-line businessman who lives for the stock market ticker. Between them are a half-dozen other characters who are torn between work and leisure. You will find yourself along that scale, too."

And Maria's Day beats a dead horse of a joke.

Puhaltaa, to blow, is a slang term for stealing. Volkswagen Beetle has many regional nicknames, it turns out. In Sweden and Finland they're called Bubbles.

What? What? The tip-off was that a doctor's handwriting is illegible to everyone but the pharmacist? Not the fact that it's the Year Of Our Lord 2014 and doctors don't write out prescriptions on piece of paper for you anymore to hand to the pharmacist? Or the fact that this guy isn't actually his doctor?

I mean, christ, I'm tied to the pharma industry and I couldn't tell you how many mg an aspirin is.

Yeah, that's the way to localize puns. Too bad it's less than intuitive for a non-native speaker. :v:

Forgot to mention: setä is similar to uncle in that it can be used about non-relatives as well. Technically it means father's brother; mother's brother is eno, which is never used for non-relatives.

Yes. I couldn't think of a way to translate that into English directly that didn't sound horribly clunky. In Korean that penalty has a pretty distinct legalistic name.

...Oh wait, jaywalking! We call that jaywalking! I completely forgot because that sounds like a slang term, not an actual penalty. Also it's almost never enforced in the United States. Let me fix that.

It's wherefore, drat it! They are two completely different words, and they don't mean anything close to the same thing. When you ask 'wherefore' something is, it means the same thing as 'what for!' You're asking WHY.

The best part is that you only have to be 17 to get into a rated R movie by yourself, so there's really no other way to interpret "adult movies."

Well, it's a given that she doesn't age in real-time, but when a comic published and set in 2012 makes reference to things that she did as a child (or young woman) and those things are tied to specific years, that sets her canonical age pretty clearly.

It's a good thing I can't draw or I'd feel compelled to edit this to have his pants down. I know it's going to turn out that he's been communicating with a drug dealer or something, but honestly, who could possibly look at this strip and think of anything other than porn?

Yes, it's been suggested that Dethany has a lot of face piercings and tattoos (like the one of herself as a unicorn on her arm) but they're only shown when they're the object of discussion.

What I thought too. He's totally looking at Peruvian Olympic javelin lingerie models.
