Happy Solstice! Bad day for us on the top of the planet, having to relinquish our sunlight and all... THANKS OBAMA! Johnny Walker posted:Rex Morgan MD That look in the second panel. "And you BETTER not gently caress with her too, you old bat!" Non Sequitur   Heavenly Nostrils  Good fix, Phoebe! 9 Chickweed Lane 6/21/2003  As always, these are good, Brooke. I am just not able to get Zits today for some reason. Getting a bunch of "connection reset" errors. I'm on a different, slower network than usual today, so that could be it. I'll try later. No problem with Kevin & Kell, though...  I understand the concept of Net Neutrality, but the connection here is just not working for me.

A professional comics artist really should be able to come up with a visual metaphor for net neutrality that isn't the worst one.

The Fingerpori Midsummer Special Raumanmeren juhannus, or "the midsummer of the Raumanmeri sea" (Raumanmeri being the old name for Selkämeri, the Bothnian sea, and currently considered a small area of the Bothnian sea) is a three-day midsummer music festival in Rauma. Definitely not the first time this pun has been made, but again, upbringing/raising/education and growing/breeding use the same word, kasvatus. Ye olde pagan midsummer magics are still kind of popular. Ironically, of course. Almost all of them are related to marriage, like divining the future partner or boosting marriage luck. They're also pretty much all meant for girls as far as I'm aware. Pahani Julmu here is performing one such magic and being naked is part of it. Making garlands is part of a magic too. Speaking of him, I don't remember if his name has been explained. At any rate, it's a spoonerism of Juhani Palmu, a painter. Paha means evil/bad and julma means cruel, so it fits this mafia boss kinda guy. Rai rai rai is... I guess I should call it drunken singing. It's like "la la la" but manlier. tiistai fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Jun 21, 2014 |

tiistai posted:The Fingerpori Midsummer Special You forgot to explain the title of the comic. "Juhannussima" means midsummer mead, but "Juhan nussima" can be translated as "hosed by Juha". There was a Fingerpori strip some years back that made that exact joke.

Retail It's a good thing Marla brought up these conflict of interest concerns before the audit instead of after so the company wouldn't have to waste a bunch of time and money on a potential recount! What a great and competent manager!  Retail has a really low bar for genius but I guess everything is relative considering the rest of the cast. Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog  I swear Refurb is better at problem-solving than anyone else in this strip.  Wow cool a new character! I like monstrous bunny horror already! Dustin  It's the verbal pedantry we all know and love.  Somehow I expected the punchline to be making GBS threads on Dustin but nope it's trolling the underemployed in general. On the Fastrack   So why didn't she? After all, it presumably would've been paid for by the company and not her? Safe Havens  I don't see the issue here. Maybe you should consider a career in the lucrative bio-defense industry.  Well now you definitely made it an issue.

The "evil trap" is that Marla and her flunky are horrible, petty people who are more interested in office politics than the customer, which is textbook bad business, and yet somehow she's a manager. Understandably a hard trap for her to avoid.

Retail's made it clear that they don't actually give any poo poo about the customers. They pretty much just care about other retail employees who are clones of themselves.

The raindrops in the photo are going the same direction as the ones in the first panel, so if you buy the idea that wind doesn't change direction in a storm, he's on the same beach as the body. I deduce that something has been edited.

It's just the 180 rule here that's making it seem confusing, in the second panel it's facing west while in the photo it's facing east. e: on second thought, that doesn't actually tell you which beach he's on. Eh.

If you accept that the rain must be falling at the same angle on both beaches, based on the suspects angle and perspective of the camera he can only be on an eastern beach to see the water and his right side simultaneously. However he could just be on the other bank of the river the body was found on and just have crossed over to kill the guy.
