Drakyn posted:Everett True was in Weapon Brown? Is it possible you're scrambling him with the OTHER bald belligerent monster, Daddy Warbucks? Would anyone be interested in reposting Weapon Brown? When I first came to this thread it was just finishing, so I never really understood why anyone was excited so much by it- the hiatus between page updates didn't help. But now that it's done, it could easily make for a more accessible regular contribution, especially with the new year's thread coming up. Wasn't it drawn by a goon? Kennel posted:Dustin Then complain to the building manager Ed ugh how are you so bad at being a fat cheapskate when those are like two of your three personality traits. Tracksuit  There are no dates attached to these so only internal context makes it possible to tell when they were drawn relative to one another. 2010 seems a pretty big jump from the last marker we saw though, that game in 2007.  Although wow, what a weirdly specific reference for a joke that could be applied to nearly anyone in the media. Brought to you by the commission to raise awareness of Pele's failures, I guess. Mother From Another Country  In reference to the color of the pig, not the color of the meat.

These single strips are less comphrensible than the sunday strips, once you pin-down it's love-triangle where one of the points hates the other two. This particular one... I guess Ignatz was giving Krazy Kat a piggyback ride? That's the only punchline I can construct from the final-panel revelations that Ignatz is with Krazy, and Krazy walking is shorter than the fence.

I still remember getting excited at finding a collection at the library, because Watterson talks it up so much in the Calvines and Hobbes anthologies, but every time I try to read it...I just don't understand it at all. Ignatz hates Krazy and demonstrates it by throwing bricks at his/her head. (Krazy's gender flips back and forth over the course of the strip.) Krazy, being, well, krazy, loves Ignatz and takes the brick-throwing as a sign of affection. Meanwhile, Offissa Pupp loves Krazy and tries to protect him/her by warning Ignatz off or putting him in jail. That's it, really -- everything else in the strip is variations on that basic story.

And in case you need it PBF'ed for you further.... Sleeping with the enemy is a great way to gather intel. Marks will spill all sorts of secret in pillow talk. There are numerous real world examples of women using sex to obtain information.

Yes the implication is that she was a good spy because she could seduce a bunch of foreign targets. Also just fyi please do not use “Oriental” to refer to people. “Oriental” is for rugs. “Asian” is for people. Oriental to refer to people is kinda old-timey-racism offensive in the same way that that cartoon’s drawing of the Asian kid is old-timey-racism offensive.

Nekonaughey   Takenoko means bamboo shoot. USC Digital Folklore Archives posted:There was an old man and wife who wanted a child, because they didn’t have one and couldn’t get one someone. The old man chopped bamboo for a living, and one day he was chopping bamboo and there was a weird light coming from the bamboo stalk. So he chops it down and he finds a baby in the bamboo stalk. He fed her and raised her. Then another day came and he just went about cutting down bamboo trees and this time he found gold inside. There’s gold and jewels and stuff like that. So he and the old women build a nice home and are really happy with their daughter. Wikipedia posted:Kitsune udon: "Fox udon". Topped with aburaage (sweetened deep-fried tofu pockets). This originated in Osaka.
