Pastis needs to embrace his desire to make puns even if they mean he only fills three panels. Groans never stopped Andy Zaltman's pun runs. This one lasted about five minutes... three and a half minutes.

I know that is supposed to be a 747 because of the bumpy thing where the cockpit and first class would be. And that it's a -400 because of the winglets. But the wings and engine really look off. Like "what's a reference photo?" off. There's other stuff, those top and bottom lines should be running parallel for most of the body of the fuselage. And why would you make the very end of the plane look like a thimble?

I can imagine him drawing that in one go and thinking.

As far as I remember Gene's whole thing is that he and his family just work so hard (because they have to, because he and his wife constantly choose the most laborious and financially insecure jobs). Their young daughter has a complex about making and hoarding money and they're just like "Oh she's so cute, helping out with her little chickens," ignorant that she basically lies awake at night running mental projections of her egg revenue over the next quarter year. Ok, that's an exaggeration, but not by much.

They seem like they're friends with the health inspector so I doubt he's going to be the monster, but I bet they'll be shut down and fined and it'll be portrayed as "gosh we just try so hard to make a living, but we get blocked at every turn!!" instead of "welp we hosed up big time."

You've probably heard that South Korea has pretty brutal working hours that frequently go beyond the legal limits. What you may not know is that people inside this system complain about it constantly. It's enabled more by political factors than cultural ones. If you heard about the million person protest in Seoul lately, that wasn't just because of the whole cult leader thing. People have been really, really pissed at the country's conservative leaders for a very long time.



...But I've never actually been in this culture so be warned that I'm kind of sort of guessing at what a lot of the intent is supposed to be in this comic.

I think the last panel was actually "get paid on time", but that wasn't stated explicitly and the implicit parts translate too clunkily into English. But yeah, it's not good.

Can't you read? It's a Gentleman's Club, which is completely different so of course your female co-workers have no cause to throw a hissy fit just because all the important business deals get made there.

All men live in fear of him and his Moxie.

So, it seems to me like Greg might be foreshadowing something interesting in this comic with the possibility of Brad or Toni getting hurt or killed in the wildfire. If he did, I’ll actually start to like Luann. Not in a masochistic way, but it would definitely deviate from the status quo of boring that is Luann.

Who am I kidding though, this will always be bland as poo poo.

I'm calling this - Brad gets hit by a tree or some-such, and the doctors aren't sure if he'll ever walk again. Through painful therapy, he learns again, and his first walk without crutches is down the wedding aisle. Then I barf.
Meanwhile, Luann notices Tiffany's bright red lipstick! What a mean whore!

We're supposed to be so pissed at the date rapist paparazzi dude for ruining Mason's relationship by filming an innocent drive to see somebody's sainted mother. Dude's ruining his own relationship. He knows the girlfriend hates this woman and thinks she's trying to get in Mason's pants. So why's he driving off someplace alone with her without running it past the girlfriend first? If the girlfriend dumps him because she can't trust him, it's justified because he's behaving in an untrustworthy manner. Moron.
