Evil Mastermind posted:Working Daze doesn't wear long sleeves because that would require drawing the character differently. This awful character somehow manages to give fat, bald, badly-dressed nerds a bad name. I hate him and I hate everyone in this comic who treats him with any humanity whatsoever. Kill all Working Daze. Thank you. Evil Mastermind posted:The people in the GoComics comments are all hoping this does get OMD-ed because they want Rip to be with Cobra and hate Breezy. But Breezy is cool? I mean I don't pay that much attention to "Rip Haywire" anymore but she's always seemed extremely tolerable, unlike a lot of the supporting cast. Midnight Moth posted:Dustin Nice, Dustin's back from yet another one of my lovely, demeaning temp assignments, time to deadpan glare at this indolent fucker unwilling to destroy his body and wardrobe for a pittance sans benefits while I sit fat and happy behind a goddamn desk all day.

Luann That's what you get, you flaky bitch! If you knew how to chart coordinates on GPS instead of trying to enjoy yourself in the outdoors, you would have avoided this fate!

Bobulus posted:I got curious and looked these tumblr blogs (they actually exist) after yesterday's comic. Most of the tips are about store policies that can be used against them. (For example, I have no idea of the veracity of this, but allegedly some stores have a policy that if the sales associate didn't see you come in not-wearing an article of clothing, they can't later claim you stole it when you're walking out of the store with it. Assuming, of course, that you dispose of all the tag-related evidence properly.) I can tell you that when it comes to Walmart, everyone except Loss Prevention or salaried management is dickless when it comes to being allowed to do anything about shoplifters. I managed the electronics department there so I had to deal a lot with theft. I had fun outsmarting the shoplifters but I never really understood the associates that got all upset and emotional about thieves. I think it was some kind of weird Stockholm Syndrome people get from working there. Edmund Sparkler fucked around with this message at 15:38 on May 7, 2015 |

EasyEW posted:For those who came in late, Montoni's is based on a real pizza place in Akron, and the real place has a band box over the door. I'm pretty sure the pizza shop was in Kent, Ohio (well, technically an Akron suburb) probably because Batiuk is a Kent State University alumnus. But, I think it was a John Montoni (erroneously referred to as a "Mr. Hale" for some unknown reason which is probably bad copy editing), not Tony who ran the place IRL. He died in 2001, and here's his obit: http://www.recordpub.com/obituaries/2001/02/09/john-j-montoni Jane's World  Tucker, dude, you're gonna get fired.

Shugojin posted:Holy poo poo foob isn't an edit. The joke really is "I hate my goddamn kids". Well, she also hates her husband. Basically she hates her family. And her life in general. Elly is a miserable person and knowing what we know about the author it's really weird reading that comic strip. It has a much different feel to it than when I was a kid. In a way that's why I find it so fascinating. EasyEW posted:Skippy (March 8, 1928) F Minus  Mary Worth   Rex Morgan MD  Ah yes. Remember the compelling "formaldehyde smell" storyline? Man I couldn't wait to see what would happen with that one! Will they get rid of the smell? Who will pay for the cleaning? Wow! It sure was something!
