Some Guy TT posted:There's not much English translations of anything. There's so much material in the monoculture no one sees much point. A serious translation publishing culture requires a country be small enough to not be able to provide for all those needs on its own. Maybe, like, idiomatically: "If it doesn't measure up, it's gone." "I don't measure up either!"

I wanna thank this thread for exposing me to these comic strips, both the good and the terrible. Seriously, screw Foob, Luann, Funky Winkerbean, Mary Worth and all of Holbrook's poo poo. I can't help but hate-read it now just to see how bad it is now. Johnny Walker posted:
I don't know what's more pathetic. That Ian is dumb enough to tell this to his paranoid wife, or that Toby says she thinks Ian's virile when we've been shown just how much she hates the idea of actually talking to him. So this rear end in a top hat is totally gonna send this poor woman his dick pics while he's still wearing his Star Trek PJs, right?

Ghostlight posted:that doesn't make it clear that he's talking about his dick though. I read the comic as him feeling as an inadequate fuckup at work, which is why Dharma sent him on vacation, only for him to identify with the fish that wasn't good enough to keep. But I don't read Korean so who knows?!

catlord posted:I don't normally comment on Out Our Way because it tends to be good and most of the little historical bits get explained so I don't need to ask, but this was a pretty good batch. I"m in the same boat, but I can't really put my finger on why they don't grab me like the others. Any thoughts?

Why faff about with justifying the red smear on Alley's forehead if you're gonna portray Ronnie as blind enough to mistake the bald bearded professor for Bush anyway, is the thing.

JethroMcB posted:The lost glasses thing feels like a cover..."A lovely sunset" indeed. Yeah, I'm gonna say that Joey Allison Sayers probably isn't a huge fan of Ronny, so this looks like it was an Alzheimer's strip that was reworked for editorial approval. My Lovely Horse posted:Why faff about with justifying the red smear on Alley's forehead if you're gonna portray Ronnie as blind enough to mistake the bald bearded professor for Bush anyway, is the thing. I guess because you can? Alley Oop's never had great internal logic as far as I can tell. It's more "what will make the cartoonist chuckle" BCN  Phoebe  Wallace  Curtis

Calaveron posted:So the fat idiot is admitting to his idiot wife that he is completely controlled by his idiot horny impulses and his wife is OK with that Well, she basically can't stand to even talk to him but would be insanely jealous of anyone else paying him any attention, so the fact that he tried to make some kind of connection with someone else and was rebuffed is exactly what she wants to hear. Now he knows that being barely tolerated by Toby is the best he can hope for, so she doesn't need to worry about him being tempted again, nor does she need to actually do anything herself. It's the perfect outcome and him admitting everything is just one of the things that makes it so perfect.
