This is part of why you have to be really careful with the boundaries and respect in this kind of relationship. Parents as landlords is tricky...and it could be an interesting and relevant dynamic to explore in this comic strip, given that more and more people are moving back in with their parents due to economics, but Dustin? Actually look at that thoughtfully? Hahahaha. Maybe Dustin should try adding a room onto the house for that neighbor kid. It would show gumption and problem solving skills. Probably wouldn't need to run that past anybody until it came time to choose the paint colors.

We won't see the first Li'l Oop till next week. Ooohhh...well now that I know that the concept sounds a lot less ridiculous. Cheer Up Boss Dharma Contract jobs refer to temporary positions. At will employment might be the better translation but I didn't have that much space.

He doesn't even have to be accurate because the episode isn't at all about the mystery of how animals reproduce, but about the delivery of diplomatically important grain shipment.

That cat is that rabbit's only friend in the entire world. I have no idea how a rich rabbit and a working class cat became friends, though.

Maxwell Lord posted:I have never worked in the comics industry, but FFS.... Les has never allowed his ignorance and lack of logical reasoning stop him from writing technically minded stories. The football games he used to do always showcased his inability to grasp anything about how the rules worked except to the extent that the game involves catching and tackling. His knowledge of mainstream comic production is similarly shallow for all the time he has devoted to setting this dumb storyline up.

It's unnerving thinking about what real life anecdote inspired Dustin's narcolepsy. A sick millennial or one who's so overworked regular sleep isn't an option? Either way just assuming the cause is laziness is crass to say the least.
