Yep...September and this is still going on. That yellow ribbon, for those of you who don't know, is the Sewol remembrance ribbon, and you can rest assured there is indeed a police presence anytime anyone uses it in a public setting. Even today. The current government has been really, really bad when it comes to using the police for nakedly political purposes.

I think I've held back a bit on mentioning this, because as the one posting this comic I should probably be the most informed, but I have no idea what is happening in SAX9 right now, and I don't want to go back to read it again. Apparently, no one is who they claim, but no one appears to be doing anything wrong, but someone was murdered anyways earlier, for reasons unclear.

Luann


#1: Further proof that getting Gunther to make her dress for her was intentionally a scam: Luann in genuinely surprised that his Engineering instructor bought it.
#2: The votes are in for Toni's dress and you can go to Luannfan.com and see the winner if you want. It's boring and ugly and clearly won by being bland (like the comic it was designed for). Unsurprisingly, I got bored of clicking the "show more" button before I got to my favorite firehose dress.

Can’t help but notice the change in Gunther’s countenance when he tells Luann that three OTHER guys were interested in her. Hmm….

Perhaps something worth noting here is Luann’s promise to wear the dress in the “unlikely event” that she and Gunther get hitched…

(Gunther:) The dress was noted for its tectonic balance synergy, thereby enhancing structural principles designed to abdicate the synthetic cohesion of the molecular bonding agents which facilitate the monochromatic properties, adhering to polysorbate 80 and carrigenan-like subparticles, accelerating polydichloridic sul(yada- yada -yada)…..
-
(Luann, drifting after hearing the “shop talk”:) “Oh….so that’s bad, right?”

(Gunther, realizing, then converting the point into terms she can understand:) “No, it got an A!” (Luann:) “Oh!…so it turned out not so bad?!”… (Gunther:) “…and boys liked you!”"….

It sapped him even more because he's even smaller, and they can still stand because they're lighter when they get smaller. He's as strong as a buff dude of his current size would be maybe.

Goth dude's idea is actually fairly decent and questions the nature of clothing in a visually striking way. The rest are Halloween costumes and a regular dress, apart from looking like a nightgown.

Much like I'd expect the turnout in a freshmen art class to be, actually.

Fair enough, actually. It wouldn't work as well if a human wore it. Much like on second thought, the remote control costume could be something about treating women as objects. Push button, get desired result, and the object you push buttons on is only a means to the end of your own gratification - it doesn't itself gain any benefit or change of status from it. I dunno about the other guy. Social media thing? Surrounded by streamers?

So that leaves Luann as the only one whose getup says nothing more than "I needed a dress, for a different occasion."

Not even the craziest thing on Scott Adams' Twitter yesterday what with his accusations of being subjected to coordinated, paid harassment by the Clinton campaign (read: people were trolling him). I really do wonder if the man was always this certifiable or if something specific broke his brain.
