ComradeCosmobot posted:It is the exact minimum number of rocks you need to say that there are some rocks. Two is a "pair", and four, yeah that's still "some" but one more than you need to express the idea. Calaveron posted:Two rocks is a pair of rocks, four rocks is a bunch of rocks. Three rocks is three rocks. That was it, thanks. It's definitely an interesting look at how one creates a comic strip like Nancy and how one can go wrong.

Art Spiegelman famously said of Bushmiller: "the drawing of three rocks in a background scene was Ernie’s way of showing us there were some rocks in the background. It was always three. Why? Because two rocks wouldn’t be 'some rocks.' Two rocks would be a pair of rocks. And four rocks was unacceptable because four rocks would indicate 'some rocks' but it would be one rock more than was necessary to convey the idea of 'some rocks.'" Because Gilchrist is simply someone who can draw rather than an artist, he read this and took away an understanding that Nancy was about putting three rocks in the background.

He used to do it to annoy his co-workers, and to see if they would say anything about it, when he worked at the BBC in the early 1940s.

To add to this, it's also the reason why we still have matching saucers with coffee cups instead of big ol' mugs. The practise has been forgotten but the cups are the same. Old timers would also put a sugar lump between their teeth and drink through it.

Endless Mike posted:References are humor! Remember that time on Family Guy where they referenced a thing? LMAO! Family Guy at least does something vaguely resembling humor. This comic is literally "I can only think about these old bands I like." There's like this constant battle between 3 or 4 comics in this thread to determine which one is the absolute dregs of the comics page and Nancy pulled into the lead today. I'm sure Luann will do something idiotic tomorrow to tighten it back up.

Working Daze guy's narcolepsy is treated as a personality quirk of laziness rather than a potentially dangerous life-threatening disorder.

Luann is currently not so awful mostly because the current storyline isn't involving Bernice. But once she's back to her awfulness it'll be a real competition again.
