Some Guy TT posted:Are you going to post Dinky Dinkerton now? It's been awhile since we've had a funny detective comic in the thread. The last one I remember was that goon-translated German one with the guy yelling out "deduction!" every few panels like he was an anime character. For a bit, at least. I've got the first week ready to go.

Well? Does it? What's the joke here? He doesn't look like he's asking in a whiny way; he just wants to know if he needs to make himself lunch or not.

When the person handling the company orientation is wearing a hooded robe like they're the grim reaper, it might be time to reevaluate your life choices and get the gently caress out of that company. FrumpleOrz posted:Safe Havens The way they mention signing up their mutant plant child for sports implies that the kid goes to school somewhere. So I guess people just don't care that DNA Wizard commits crimes against humanity and science on the reg, then?

If I'm not mistaken, the State's Governor is married to Dr. Brenda Scrimm, a woman who used to be a dog (A border collie who was half-cat, somehow, and previously married to another dog.). I am uncertain if the governor knows this, and there hasn't been enough interest in Safe Havens outside this thread to update the Wikipedia article since July.

Selachian posted:Richard's Poor Almanac I'm guessing this is from the 2002 - 2004 time period given the jokes about the French and the war on Iraq and I can say living in the DC Metro area at the time of this comic was wild. The safe room thing is referring to the scaremongering that terrorists would set off a dirty bomb or some kind of biological weapon and that you could -- poo poo you not -- safeguard your house by duct taping garbage bags to the windows. "Duct tape sales rise amid terror fears From Jeanne Meserve CNN Tuesday, February 11, 2003 Posted: 7:35 PM EST (0035 GMT) WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Americans have apparently heeded the U.S. government's advice to prepare for terror attacks, emptying hardware store shelves of duct tape. On Tuesday, less than 24 hours after U.S. Fire Administrator David Paulison described a list of useful items, stores in the greater Washington, D.C. area reported a surge in sales of plastic sheeting, duct tape, and other emergency items. These items, Paulison said, can be helpful after a biological, chemical or radiological attack. A Lowe's hardware store in Alexandria, Virginia, said every roll of duct tape has been sold. Another Alexandria Home Depot store reported sales of duct tape tripled overnight. "Everything that was on that newscast, we are selling a lot of it," said Rich Pierce with a Home Depot in the D.C. area. In his advisory, Paulison recommended that households have on hand three days worth of water and food; an emergency supply kit for both home and automobile; radios with extra batteries; and plastic sheeting and duct tape to seal windows and doors. (What to do) With concerns growing about al Qaeda's interest in acquiring weapons of mass destruction, Paulison cautioned that aid after an attack could be hard to come by, at least initially. He said that in the first 48 to 72 hours of an emergency, many Americans will likely to have to look after themselves.(Red Cross on preparedness) If an attack occurs, Paulison said, households should tune in to local media outlets and not evacuate unless they are told to do so. President Bush's Homeland Security Council raised the national threat level from yellow to orange on Friday. Orange indicates a "high" risk of terrorist attack, and yellow indicates an "elevated" risk. The level was raised in part because of a high amount of "chatter" being intercepted by intelligence agencies. When the Department of Homeland Security urged Americans on Monday to take steps to prepare for a possible attack, it said the advice was intended not as a "dire" warning but as cautionary advice."

I'm so close to being caught up on this thread! I'm on page 63, and I have these things to say: - A+J owns so MUCH you guys I love that comic - Tinkersons really is a good comic, I should reread it as the Helen arc is fascinating. I'm glad it's improved and I hope it continues to be good - Overboard is earnestly stupid charming, and for that I will continue to be its fan, even if it portrays covid in the dumbest way possible. Well, it's dumb but it treats it like an actual threat and they wear masks so it's better than Some comics I could name. - How was Far Side so consistently good? Like, drat. Okay everyone hold off on posting comics for a few days so I can catch up at last!

Haulin Oates posted:I was playing around on Google, and why has no one mentioned that Richard Thompson came to the forums to thank people for their support?! Wow! I emailed him a couple times with fan letters about particular strips, and he replied personally. One was a strip with the "you can't tie down a banjo man" line, and he remarked that he was worried he was overusing the line so he was glad i liked it.

TheMadMilkman posted:I’m really appreciating how Sally Forth is letting in some humor while still letting an emotional situation be expressed well. That’s a very difficult line to walk, and they seem to be handling it well. It's the same level of Ctrl-Alt-Del monkeycheese nonsense as always. (Yes, I compared Ces to Tim Buckley.  ) Just an unending word salad where the final panel trips over how many jokes it tries to tell. And then it veers for a couple weeks into maudlin seriousness that feels out of place in a strip with giant wolf statues in the backyard and psychic eighth graders.Either leave the soapy melodramatics to Judge Parker or commit to making Sally Forth a serious serial - and let JP turn into the farcical parody you want it to be, Ces.
