SomeMathGuy posted:Mark Trail No, Carina, the perfectly sensible plan was that Mark would swim out and if he's not dead he'll come back into the cave and find you again and you can all swim out together, but if he dies you'll just have to find another way. You've been down there for months, so I don't think ten minutes is giving him enough time to loop back around.  Raskolnikov38 posted:Also I wasn't paying attention to earlier strips but is the Nomad black? This woman is going to be mighty disappointed if two white girls show up. Nomad is white, but his wife is black. This means his daughter is mixed, of course, but you wouldn't be able to tell by looking at her:

Yes! Because when people get all dressed up smartly for a night out at a gala, the one thing they really want to do is look after a total stranger's infant. (Of course in Rex Morganland, that will turn out to be the case, plus they kids'll probably pick up a couple of free yachts, a free uni ride, and a fat inheritance before the evening is over).

Mark - our fit and active companion - went into this unknown, underwater cave and hasn't come back. Let's follow him together so that our fat man can get stuck, grab on to the lady and drown them both.

Slammy posted:Outbursts of Everett True I didn't find much on Red Sundays, but I did find a few references to Blue Mondays and drinking.  This one is from 1906. I'm choosing to read this as being about hangovers.  This one is from a 1930 prohibition editorial.

Slammy posted:Outbursts of Everett True The 'Red Sunday" might to refer to the slang of "paint the town red" meaning to go on a wild debauch. Being hungove the next day would account for the "Blue Monday'.

Sundays are marked red on the calendar. I don't think that's what it's referring to, though

The Classic Dinette Set spreads the good word. Working Daze is back to the stupid pickleball thing it does every summer. And yes, pickleball is apparently a real thing.  Super-Fun-Pak-Comix is a little too abstract.

We played pickleball in high school gym inside on the half court. It was fun and one of my favorite gym subjects along with martial arts and sitting around the weights room shooting the poo poo, but geez I'd never want to lionize it in a tryhard geek comic strip or anything.

Pickleball was my favorite in gym, too. Sporting ability is not among my gifts, though. I was so bad at it that my gym teacher thought I was trolling and got mad.  I thought it was just a thing schools made up when the budget was too tight to spring for real tennis balls and rackets. I wouldn't have thought anybody would ever play it outside of schools.

I think not dislike in the sense of how we're supposed to dislike That Slut Bitch Tiffany, but more in the sense of, "  Look at this dumb jock just coming right out and telling a girl he likes her instead of befriending her first and allowing her to gradually fall in love with him over time or constructing a complex web of intrigue for her to fall into. What a chump. Why, he's so stupid that he was rejected without any great impact to his self esteem! Definitely not a worthy suitor for our sweet little Lu Lu. "
