Holy poo poo that class warfare in the moral panel of buster brown. I admit I often skim past BB aside from the terrifying faces.

I've been super busy with beginning-of-the-semester stuff, but here are some very late comics: Barnaby (May 20th-May 23rd, 1942)   Dykes to Watch Out For (still 1986)     Sam's Strip (October 19-October 21, 1961)

It makes a lot more sense when you put it into its correct context of Reagan parroting a literal translation of a Russian proverb in an attempt to seem relatable to the Soviets during the Cold War.

Regarding that Kevin and Kell, it’s completely out of character for the bride to be to leave her wedding dress up to anyone else. She’s explicitly been described as a bridezilla. Cmon Holbrook, keep track of your terrible characters.

Archyduchess posted:Any academic or scientific writing unless you're operating off of a very strange and presumably depressing definition of "trust." A lack of trust is exactly why you verify in science though? Not necessarily lack of trust in the people who did the research but certainly in their results. Not trusting things is the entire basis of science. Unless I'm completely misunderstanding what you're saying?

It certainly doesn't make sense in this context, where she's talking about Ed Crankshaft whom she detests and has never trusted a day in her life.

Zits is pretty drat good. Look at Mason, trying to stick it to The Man by burning a dollar bill. God, Batiuk is such a pretentious hack. You just made my day with this.  Clearly what this teacher miserable with the common cold needs to feel better is more of this idiot child blathering nonsense.

re: "trust but verify" - I always thought it was intended to be a cynical proverb that boiled down to its inherent contradiction. You trust people to their faces and then quietly, privately verify their statement.

That's definitely how it reads to me as well, but I have a sneaking suspicion there's a bunch of people who genuinely think it's a sincere, honest and wise way of living.

You trust people to their faces and then quietly, privately verify their statement. I take it to mean that you don't treat everyone like a criminal who's trying to scam you, but you still want to check up now and again due to human nature. For example, I believe that most of my students are honest and won't cheat on tests, but I still set up the room to forestall human temptation. It's not that I think they're inherently dishonest, but I also account for human weakness.

Then you get the strips about Raymond the cat, who is a serial killer and the mice treat him as the terrible monster he is.

Holbrook's insistence that somehow his society where one class literally eats the other is superior to human society (even though otherwise it's exactly the same, except I hear he claimed there's no wars over there for... reasons. probably too busy hunting herbivores) is what really elevates the drekness of the whole thing.

It's an old Russian proverb, that was popularized over here by Reagan, while he was negotiating with the Russians over disarmament.
