Moominmamma doesn't really know her husband all that well, if she thought that Pappa wouldn't be excited about having a criminal wife.

Also, looks like the laws of Moominvalley allow cruel and unusual punishments.

How do you get a gif to show up next to a image? I just spent an hour on something really dumb and I can't post it.

Are you trying to post a gif (animated image) or gifv/mp4 (video)? Imgur converts large gifs automatically into videos (better optimized and smaller size), but you can get image file by changing the url.

Videos don't show up next to images.

honestly i agree with you!! if i got the sense that ed and (... diane???) felt any sort of positive emotion toward each other besides at best general tolerance it could be cute

also if Ed were ever depicted as deliberately doing goofy poo poo for fun rather than being the put-upon Correct Man, or if anyone in this comic reacted to over the top silly stuff with giggles instead of painful eyerolls

I found one that my sisters and I did, in 1970, when my oldest sister got a portable cassette recorder for Christmas. I actually remember doing it - I was seven; it was a rainy day in Switzerland, we lived in the middle of nowhere, and we were bored out of our skulls.

We had fun practicing swear words. That part I forgot all about until I played a copy for my sister, at her house at a Thanksgiving one year, with her extended (husband's) family all round, when there seven-year-old PoC was, happily hollering, "lovely!" at the top of my lungs. Someone else slipped in , "fucker."

My sister, and her extended married family, are devout born-again christians.

It was a moment.

:lol:

On a slightly more serious note, I'm actually glad of some recordings I made. My sister had Down syndrome, and she had a tendency to talk to herself, acting out the videos she had seen. As a young teen I thought the things she said were hilarious, so I spent a fair amount of time hiding tape recorders to capture her monologues so that I could laugh at them later.

She died in 2002, and I recently found one of the tapes. Listening to that tape was like hearing my sister again :unsmith:.

Yeah I got a TalkBoy for Christmas one year when that was the hot new thing and I made more than a few embarrassing kid tapes. (I remember that I even had a super ernest spiel at the top of my first tape about how these were "my audio memories that I would treasure forever" or some poo poo. Jesus.)

Later, I just put it next to the TV speaker to record audio from cartoons like some kind of ersatz VCR. The presaged the man I would become, listening to comedy podcasts nonstop from the moment I wake up until my head hits the pillow at night.

Second appearance of the "dead people visiting their loved ones" trope. Still confuses me; is Elanor imagining her husband floating there, or is he actually there? This one can still be justified, but in the future there will be instances of the dearly departed saying something that the living couldn't possibly know.
