Skippy (September 15, 1927) Peanuts on the hazards of an intemperate tongue. (November 30, 1967)  Funky Winkerbean  We make noise about people being miserable in this strip. We make noise when people finally get around to joy, too, because we're not convinced that happiness can live for long here. When somebody in your life that's been a drag on the soul suddenly pops a rainbow out of their rear end, you wonder if they're about to kill somebody. That's the way it goes. Popeye  Rip HayWhatTheHellDidYouJustSay?  Ka-off-panel-plot-development! Out Our Way (February 3-4, 1926)

Jane's World Wait. So, BANG, they're back to normal? Why are they not furries anymore? Were they just hallucinating because of head injuries or something? Non Sequitur  Uh oh, the beetus. Heavenly Nostrils is with us again.    Kliban's Cats  That is one torqued up cat. 9 Chickweed Lane 11/20/2003  Based on your history with her, Amos, a "sad trombone" comes to mind. Zits  Kevin & Kell  No you constructed a stick with the 3D printer. You still used the sticks to construct the dam. If you had a 3D printer big enough to construct the dam, where are you hiding it? Why do I care.  Some people just live to bitch. It's like their hobby or something.

The Dinette Set puts a price on friendship. Working Daze knows it's a hirer's market out there. Also marketing people, ammitrite?   Job searching in the tech sector is really bad nowadays too, because on top of the ridiculous amount of experience, companies want skill with a half-dozen programming languages even for non-programming positions or shitton of certifications you've never heard of.

Luann  What she means is she's put her life on hold for a long time so she could raise her obnoxious bratty son and now that she's finally managed to get the enormous infant's rear end out of her nest she's feeling a little lonely and would like some adult company and maybe even some romance. Or, to put it more simply, what she means is grow the gently caress up, Gunther. Pros & Cons   Sally Forth    The Amazing Spider-Man   Juliet Jones   Well, that was sure dumb. Let's see what a new storyline will bring us!  Phantom Classic    Big Ben Bolt

Dustin Steve Kelley needs to work on his stand up routine. On the Fastrack  I dunno, the haughty look works just fine for supermodels and they're plenty attractive. Safe Havens  Speaking from experience... just make a dating profile on any of the myriad dating sites. If you're halfway attractive, even more so if you have some geeky interests, you'll get PLENTY of messages and guys asking you out on a date everyday. I promise.

Indolent Bastard posted:Intelligent Life Julet Esqu posted:Speaking as a girl, I don't give a poo poo if you call girls dudes. I've done it myself. However, unironically saying dudette will probably make me wonder if you secretly believe yourself to be a Ninja Turtle. But Gwen is a feminist! She can't stand for that! Given, I'm being a bit harsh on the artist because I've been mostly noting what Gwen is doing after it was acknowledged she runs a blog about feminist topics. So I wanted to see how the author would handle writing someone who did that. So far it's been an irrelevant facet of her character for the most part. Save for when there are jokes about it, like when she's shown having writer's block for until the Peter Griffin stand-in showed up to do his creepy, desperate, please-let-me-put-quarters-in-you-until-sex-comes-out routine. Wait no it was the jock because hurr hurr nerds can't be sexist pieces of poo poo. Job chat: I had the fun of clawing my way into the job market with a Ph.D. in chemistry recently. Academia wants you to post-doc which requires you have connections and preferably money. Industry wants you to have an internship which requires you have connections. Government positions wants you to know you'll be available 18 months in advance of applying for anything they offer because that's the turnaround on it. I didn't actually do a post-doc or internship because things don't always pan out in ways that make you a presentable post-doc candidate, and I had no industry connections to get an internship. Instead I ended up using the connections I did have to get hired by an Ed Tech company and it's pretty fun, actually, though I do sort of miss research. I've watched dudes (both male and female) with little to no connections work in liquor stores and teach adjunct for years while trying to find something that actually uses their degree. Being unable to relocate sucks a whole lot there. Right now I'm watching a labmate that's a brilliant chemist desperately beg for post-docs and repeatedly getting told by everyone they don't have money because the current funding climate sucks since the recession made things suck then the stimulus made everything awesome then the stimulus ending made everything suck a whole lot more. P.S. if you ever see a movie/book/TV show/comic show a scientist being an anti-social rear end in a top hat and succeeding, understand I am laughing hard at it. Connections are important for scientists. I only got hired because I went to conferences and schmoozed with people, and probed every professional I met to see if they were interested in talking about their job. You only get away with being an rear end in a top hat if you're weirdly charming in at least some way, or established yourself well then became an rear end in a top hat. P.P.S. Also being chatty and curious about people around you are how you get the response of, "Oh, I'm a process chemist for Trojan." and then you learn about condom chemistry. That was an interesting day.

How much more Zachary Nixon Johnson do we have left, anyway? Can't be that much. Six Chix  Zippy the Pinhead  I do the same thing whenever I need to relax, too. Except instead of a carwash it's a shower, and instead of being carless it's with a beer. Nancy  Arlo and Janis  Andertoons  Lost Side of Suburbia   Yep, it's been called. Dick Tracy  Inspector Danger's Crime Quiz  Deep Dark Fears  I think that was an episode of the X-Files. And a GWAR song.

Of all things, I remember an episode of The Wombles where somebody steals a hot cake and is identified as the thief by their uncontrollable hiccuping. No idea where the concept started or why it died out.

No idea where the concept started or why it died out. Having grown up with a mother who insisted it was SO BAD for you to eat any baked things like bread, cake, cookies etc straight out of the oven before they had a chance to go cold, this was a thing I believed right up until I was about 30 and suddenly woke up one day and realized it was all a plot to keep little kids from mooching all your delicious baking. I can't prove that this was the original reason behind the myth, but I bet it was, because little kids in previous decades or centuries probably weren't any different. I am also pretty sure the only reason it died out is because most people today don't grow up baking everything (unfortunately).

It goes up there with the lie about swimming right after eating giving you cramps, or your hair growing back thicker if you shave it in things most likely started by lazy-rear end parents who couldn't just tell their kids 'no' and stand firm.

"Pooch Café You can't slam a doggie door, they're on a swing hinge! No, no, nothing about this adds up at all."  Actually, you can! We have a catflap that's got locks on it; it's activated by the cat's microchip (which involved 'teaching' the door our cats' chip wavelength by holding them up and more or less waving them around in front of the door until it registered). Anyway, it's always set on 'unlock' going out, but 'lock' coming in (to prevent visits from neighbour-cats). It's on a hinge, but it does slam shut with a bit of a bang when they come through it, especially if they're zooming in ahead of a pursuing cat-pal.Gah -- soz about making such a dog's dinner out of the quotes info there.
