This is sort of, almost coherent for Boyce, so that dose he just took must've kicked in. Jane's World  Ok, I have no idea what the gently caress is going on here. Sedona is in Arizona, so what's the problem? If Paige mentioned where the hell they were going in the first place, I've long forgotten it.

I work out of the house, and the booze cabinet is just across the room.  gently caress, Heavenly Nostrils is yesterday's... again. Kliban's Cats  The notches out of his/her ears just make this picture. We have a neighborhood "itinerant" cat with one ear just like that. He's been in a few dust-ups I think. 9 Chickweed Lane 10/14/2003  Eh, not bad, Brooke. Zits  Well, apparently he didn't put it on his dick like Say Nothing theorized. Kevin & Kell  Boyce crossover. Is this some sort of "anti-bullying" time of year or something? Plus, that Rhino has boobs, and that's just disconcerting.  That last line... could be construed a couple of different ways.

BlankIsBeautiful posted:Jane's World Or at least, I have vague memories of one of them saying "Palm Springs, here we come!" a few strips back, which I'm not going to go back and look for in case I turn out to be right, because I don't want to think of myself as the kind of person who can remember a line from a Jane's World panel days after it was posted here. I probably am that kind of person, though.  In my defense, at least I don't have any loving idea what is going on with any part of the hostage storyline, up to and including the names of any of the people involved. Anyone who can unravel that can claim this shame-crown of mine and wear it...proudly?...that doesn't seem like the right word, but whatever.

I completely forgot there was a kidnapping storyline, all I remembered was the drag bus and the monster truck sabotage. There's probably a fourth plotline that I don't even remember forgetting. Feh.

To be fair, at least for me, the cowboys in Out Our Way are way more difficult for me to sound out in my head when I read them. Still, I understand little kids talk funny (my 22yo used to say airphlegm for airplane which I though was hilarious), but it seems like they just take it too far in Rose is Rose.

It's easily in my top three of most-hated strips*, because on top of the stupid baby talk, and the sudden Jojo's Bizarre Adventure mom and all that poo poo, it just literally has nothing to say about anything. *in this thread.

I have no issues deciphering the baby talk, but it's loving obnoxious. Something about Rose is Rose really rubs me the wrong way, and I think the baby talk is symptomatic of it. Maybe how twee the whole thing is?

This is just adult talk transcribed to use way more letters than the original. It's like the baby is a 35-year old using anti-phonetic spelling. I hate it a lot.

This is just adult talk transcribed to use way more letters than the original. It's like the baby is a 35-year old using anti-phonetic spelling. Eye dialect is just the dumbest thing. quote:The term was coined by George P. Krapp to refer to the literary technique of using nonstandard spelling that implies a pronunciation of the given word that is actually standard, such as wimmin for women; the spelling indicates that the character's speech overall is dialectal, foreign, or uneducated.[1][2] This form of nonstandard spelling differs from others in that a difference in spelling does not indicate a difference in pronunciation of a word. That is, it is dialect to the eye rather than to the ear.[3] It suggests that a character "would use a vulgar pronunciation if there were one" and "is at the level of ignorance where one misspells in this fashion, hence mispronounces as well."[4]

Well if it was 50 pounds and fragile you should get another guy or two for stability but no one ever does that, which leads to fragile poo poo exploding into tiny tiny pieces after short falls.
