Magic Hate Ball posted:Someone put that dog out of its misery. The dog looks different again, so I imagine that someone already did. Yet again Phil's dog has died, so he replaced it with another white dog, put a bandanna on it, and said "good enough". Nancy and Sluggo, being children, do not question the dog's shifting appearance, unaware that had they left the original dog in its yard, many canine deaths could have been prevented. Seriously though Gilchrist's art is awful and he can't keep the dog looking the same in back-to-back strips. Phil's appearance is rather mercurial as well, even ignoring the amazing tripling in body mass, actually.

Magic Hate Ball posted:Someone put that dog out of its misery. I can roll with the Nancy plots. A bit heavy-handed with the old-fashioned stuff, but whatever, it's interesting to me to see that perspective. But that dog? Hot drat I hate that dog. The way it's always way, way too happy and excited all the time. The American Flag neckerchief thing that's just so... I don't know, over the top and obvious? Nancy and Sluggo, fine. The romance thing, sure. Fumble hulking out? Okay. "Old-fashioned morals"? Alright. But that dog? That's over the line. I think maybe what's up is I was into Garfield as a kid, and dogs who are always that happy all the time in a comic make me expect a cat to kick them off the table, but the moment never comes.

Fingerpori Heimo in the boy scouts: - Ismo and Tuukka, pitch a tent! - Heimo, chop some logs After an hour: - What is that?? - A chopper Heimo is told to "make logs", so he makes a "chopper". Both are pronounced as halkoja. ...I'm bored, so here's some more unnecessary details. Halkoa is the basic form of the verb "to chop" or "to split (in half)". The suffix -ja works much in the same way as "-er" does in English, denoting someone/something that does the verb in question: juoksee -> juoksija "he runs -> a runner", halkoo -> halkoja "he chops -> a chopper". Halko means a single chopped wooden log. Just so happens that its partitive (i.e. object, indeterminate amount) plural form ("some logs") is also halkoja: it has the plural marker -j- (which normally would be -i- but because of morphological reasons is often pronounced as -j- in plural partitives) and the partitive -A (capital A meaning either a or ä). The Finnish grammar is surprisingly logically structured. The problem is that it's still pretty convoluted. tiistai fucked around with this message at 14:12 on May 17, 2014 |

Midnight Moth posted:Retail The correct answer is to tell them they can buy it now, and if it goes on sale you'll refund the difference. You make the sale right there, they get warm fuzzies about how you'll take care of them, and then there is a .001% chance they actually notice the sale and take the trouble to get the refund. If they do come in for the refund, then they buy other crap while they're there. While doing the refund, prompt them for their email address. But it's just a silly comic strip for fun and doesn't need to be completely realistic, right?

Julet Esqu posted:Apartment 3-G She named the mare Mary. Also, how the gently caress is this whole situation being presented as a good thing and not something that her friends should be staging an intervention for? She had a job, went in one day and got told to go home because random coworker decided not being at work would help her get over her fiance's death, even though Tommie said outright that she'd prefer to be at work and it would help take her mind off it. But she got told to go, so she went. Then this weirdo out of nowhere is making her work 24/7 on his farm or whatever, and live there, presumably without pay, and it's supposed to be teaching her a valuable lesson or something?
