Did you ever wonder where the Romans got bread from? It wasn't from Waitrose!

Jesus, Gilchrist -- my brother is 65, and he was a little kid when Beanie and Cecil was on tv.

The '50s version he liked (it was later animated, but I refuse to give Gilchrist the benefit of the doubt):

You know, I knew Gilchrist was going to be using old TV shows, but even so I'm still amazed he's going with stuff that old.

The interior walls in that house are just two pieces of drywall without any studs or anything. Whoever built that had no business doing any sort of contracting, much less building a structure for people to live in.

On a completely unrelated note, is mocking former mods still bannable?

I legit hate this comic more every day, but its official Facebook page posted something I admit I enjoyed: a fake history of the strip that pays homage to various other comic strips throughout the years.

It's sort of infuriating that the creators of this comic are capable of doing good work and just don't.

The Morgan's kid or whoever that loving is, is good at painting, so an old lady (ex?) mob boss took her under her wing and hooked her up with her art forger (who's going legit these days).

I can understand how you'd forget since this happened sometime in 1986.
Oh I remember all that. What confuses me is they keep hinting about these people being shady, and then they turn out not to be, but they keep acting somewhat shady anyways so it's like I keep waiting for someone to do something shady, but they don't, and now they introduce a sleazy lawyer type. I don't understand why they are doing it since it appears to be leading nowhere. The old lady mob boss turns out not to be a mob boss (or maybe she is!). The forger turns out not to be a forger (or once was and still can but doesn't!). Bugsy the thug turns out not to be a thug (or maybe he is!). Now sleazy lawyer guy is (probably) going to turn out to be not all that sleazy (or maybe he is!). You're right though, this has been going on for months and months now and it's just completely pointless. But I guess that's soap opera comics.

I really shouldn't think on this but why are the merfolk getting in the way of nature? I suppose that's the way it's always been and we on the surface don't know this or anything?

Also, why do the kids in the Kevin and Kell have separate elementary schools but then in high school they shove them all together? I'd think high school would be the worst time to try and put volatile situations like that together. Wild animal instincts and teenagers I mean.

I don't know why I get stuck on these things.
