This is the first comic I've seen where Sport Man didn't have his crazed madman facial expression at some point. To be fair I usually skip past it completely, and only checked because I noticed it in the edit.

I thought the foob thing from yesterday was a reference to "print" and "different" rhyming, but I can't think of how that works as a joke either.

Sadly it's actually St. Camilla's, but to be fair if I'd been a teenager at a Catholic high school I'd come up with a name like that too.

Also for whoever was asking this is the first time the younger nun meets that priest. When I first started reading the strip in this thread the younger nun had quit being a nun to get married to the priest (who obviously also quit), and she was giving birth to their first child in the company of the older nun, who had a weird prolonged hallucination about God and The Owl and the Pussycat. It was stupid and pretentious and told me everything I needed to know about 9CL.

I need to go have a long hard think about who I am as a person for knowing so much about this goddamn strip.

It was me that asked, and thank you. I was somewhat concerned for myself that I remembered as much as I did. There's a weird thing in this thread where I get to know strips I hate as much (if not even more) than strips I like, and then there are strips that grow on me and I now enjoy despite them often being boring and stupid, like Mary Worth and Rex Morgan MD. Speaking of which:

Mary Worth

If there's anything you can expect from a man who moved across the country and into the very same condo complex as you to be with you 8 years after you last saw him, it's that he can be reasonable about going slow in the relationship.

Rex Morgan MD

Luann

Gunther you ungrateful poo poo. Everyone in your life is trying to help you and all you do is complain at them, usually over things that are utterly irrelevant.

I don't know why this of all things is what's finally got me yelling at him like other people here, but jeez. What a petulant little brat. The other characters in this comic (except TJ and his stupid smug face) are too good for him, which is saying something because this is Luann and everyone in it is awful and dumb. Gunther is the worst in a comic that is basically nothing but terrible, stupid people.

Oh man, if the school bully torches Kelly's car and destroys all of those paintings, it will make everything about this entire stupid storyline worthwhile. Just one time, a Rex Morgan story that ends with the characters losing, that's all I ask.

I'd bet Dustin could do it, and Ed would just internally hold it against him like "Why doesn't he just get a JOB as an electrician?"

What the gently caress. Holbrook, you dork. THAT'S NOT WHAT DRONES LOOK LIKE MORON! That's either a 70s console stereo, or a coffee table equipped with a 1987 VHS camcorder. I'm starting to think Boyce might have a slightly better grasp of modern high tech. Jeeze...

He's such a dick that he probably doesn't consider trade jobs as "real" jobs.

It's called Humor Sans, and it's based on xkcd. You can get it here along with a few other comic fonts. I can't remember where I originally found it. The others in that zip file were all posted in this thread (or a previous version of it).
