EasyEW posted:Funky Winkerbean, You Goddamn Insufferable rear end in a top hat Sometimes I really do wonder if Batiuk is just outright not capable of recognizing when it doesn't make thematic or contextual sense for his characters to be smug assholes. For example, when they're stuck at the DMV solely because they failed to notice their license expired over a year ago.

EasyEW posted:Funky Winkerbean Hello, and welcome to the Ohio BMV fun fact corner. - If you renew your license after six months of its expiry, you must obtain a temporary permit and re-complete all necessary testing. - You receive mail notification prior to your license expiring - Ohio BMV offices are not filled with dry, snarking losers eking out their last days before death with stupid smug one-liners, but rather normal state government employees. EasyEW posted:Funky Winkerbean, You Goddamn Insufferable rear end in a top hat More BMV fun facts: - Cash or check only requirements are only for certain functions of the BMV, of which the driver's license is not one. - The BMV actually takes your license when you renew it, meaning that they only ask for changes in information. - gently caress that smug prick.

If his fluid intake was already subpar it's entirely possible to seriously dehydrate in a comparatively short time period. At the point where he's fainting it'd be pretty irresponsible for that doctor to let him go without an IV. Finally, incidental knowledge gained from living at altitude in dry climates pays off.

Please, I'm fat as gently caress, and do work at the bottom of swimming pools in the middle of summer. Slowly walking through a con hall isn't going to do this based on what little they showed in the strip. His shirt isn't even damp, for fucks sake. I'd believe that he let his blood sugar drop too low though.

It's like that one time a lady in Mary Worth got her wallet stolen and had to contact all her credit card companies and a bunch of us were like, "Oh, poo poo, that would be a total pain in the rear end! We better make a list of our credit cards, just in case!" Newspaper comics serve an important educational function and should continue to be supported.
