gently caress you Brooke. EIther he's Gay or he's Bisexual, although leans towards men. You can't have him be gay but gently caress women whenever the mood suits him. It's like he heard somewhere that two straight guys can gently caress once and it doesn't mean they're gay now, and that's true and all, but this is reading like some incredibly hosed up "You can gently caress the gay away by just boning enough of the other sex!" It's not even "Well, he was gay, but he's not anymore" which is also a thing that happens. People's sexual identities change over time and that's completely normal. But this isn't that! This is just so hosed up! No to mention the fact that Edda is supposedly in a committed exclusive relationship with Amos (or are they married?) with an incredibly-hosed-up-but-active-and-I'm-not-one-to-judge sex life. Is he OK with this? Is he into cuckolding? Since Amos has always been Brooke's Mary Stu in this, maybe this is his way of addressing that, where the meek guy watches an Adonis bang his wife/girlfriend?

Argh.

Hey, remember that time GHulk met Edda's uncle and immediately deduced that he's gay? And his only evidence for that was that he spent so much time banging his wife that they had a happy marriage and lot of children! And then GHulk went up to the dude and was like, "Dude! You're gay!" And instead of being like, "No, I'm straight, everything's cool," or "No, I'm bisexual, everything's cool," he was like, "Oh poo poo! I am gay! Better get a divorce and never sex a woman again!"

Yeah...

Or the time GHulk fell "in love" with a female character's dancing and had sex with her, but that didn't count as sleeping with a woman because he was making love to her art not her.

I think that's when GHulk's boyfriend vanished from the strip, too.

e: OH and in that wedding arc they just did they had Edda and someone else think a guy was gay because he was good at picking dresses.

To do that you'd have to be able to afford to put aside $50 a week, so why not just do that every week? At the end of the year you've saved $2600 instead of $1378. Or just put aside however much you can spare each week instead of starting at $1? What's the point of this?

It might seem that way because of how slowly things move in this strip, but It's actually older than that. Would you believe that it happened back in 2010?

Yes, "pigeon" has been used as slang for "sucker" or "mark." That said, it's pretty out-of-date slang, but that's what you get from Billingsley.

It was pretty clever of the Evanses to make up for their lack of being able to make up interesting characters by having no one show up, and they're even about to get rid of one of the two who did. Genius!
