Classic Kevin & Kell (February 21-25, 2000) Reminder that at this point: - Fenton and Lindesfarne have been dating for less than two in-universe years; - In that time, Fenton has cheated on Lindesfarne at least once (with Tammy); - Fenton has been missing for the best part of a year, and they've only just reconnected (also, he has zero recollection of the year he was missing); - Fenton is 18, a high school drop-out, and has just started working for Lindesfarne's dad for an internet start-up (which is nowhere near "a good job"); - Lindesfarne is underage (17) and has one more year of high school to go, and then she's presumably planning to move on to college since she's quite smart. Seriously Fenton what the gently caress? There's being young and in love, and then there's whatever you thought you were doing. Lindesfarne did good in refusing to marry you for the time being.

Julet Esqu posted:I get the distinct impression that Dethany doesn't realize that her employer is abusive or that her workplace is toxic. I think she thinks this is just how offices are. Funny thing is, FrumpleOrz actually sent Holbrook an email asking why Dethany's relationship with her boss is so abusive. Holbrook's reply was that Dethany was learning what not to do from Ms. Trellis once she's the boss, which is bullshit because Dethany never learns[/s] anything. So Dethany's completely aware her workplace and boss are toxic, she's just such a massive bootlicker who keeps excusing her boss's behavior. Mikl posted:Reminder that at this point: I'm amused that Holbrook actually used the final point you made here, except he wussed out and didn't mention that Lindesfarne was still underage.

Have any modern comics gone through a strip transition like this? kvx687 posted:Also, I haven't seen anyone talking about Gay and Her Gang recently but it's also an excellent strip.

PetraCore posted:My interpretation is she was lying about the candy box because she didn't want her daughter to have a pet tortoise, so she just gave it away or got rid of it, but yours is pretty cruel too. Assuming it was a baby tortoise, yes. And not a sulcata baby, those fuckers survive a lot. Otherwise...when I was a kid, and lived in a military base in New Mexico, we were known for being the turtle family, to the point my dad got a call from some freight company to pick up a stowaway. See, they were shipping in air conditioning units from Florida to NM, and at some point a Florida gopher tortoise crawled into one of the shipping freight boxes. And was delivered to NM, where the boxes sat for a good few months. By the time they cracked the case open, Frisky was super dehydrated and barely alive, but my dad picked her up, brought her home, and we got her back to sassy health quickly. I mostly remember her chasing me around the backyard because I always gave her extra treats.

you broke my grill posted:I was trying to google to find out what this is and this is all I found That's more than I found ... I kept getting steered to information about Glendale. Glands, and the alleged magical properties thereof, were as common in mid-century woo as "detoxification" is today. For instance, see Dr. John Brinkley, who got rich transplanting "goat glands" into men to treat impotence.

Selachian posted:That's more than I found ... I kept getting steered to information about Glendale. One of the later Sherlock Holmes stories (published 1923) features this phenomenon: it turns out the villain has been taking a particularly powerful gland extract from monkeys in order to restore his youth and vitality, but every time he takes a dose he starts acting very monkey-like, to the point of climbing effortlessly up vines (which is how he got to an upper-story window, thus resolving a piece of the mystery). As you might guess, this is NOT one of Arthur Conan Doyle's better stories.

Huh. I'd just assumed that the plastic nature of a full Drivers' License would allow it to make it through the laundry in mostly normal shape. Is this not the case? Are there states where the regular Driver's License is unlaminated cardstock?

Moomin Goes Wild West *Sounds of Lars furiously checking away at his 'western tropes to hit' checklist* Apparently the 50s were very much the golden age of the Westerns, and they had a massive media presence, just like how Superheroes are now. It does make me wonder how much of the western-mania made it's way over to europe, or if it was just a very specifically american thing for the most part.

Part of the REAL ID standards was to stop printing drivers licenses on paper/cardstock so there might be some left over but a teenager certainly shouldn't have gotten their license so long ago that its like that.

SubNat posted:Apparently the 50s were very much the golden age of the Westerns, and they had a massive media presence, just like how Superheroes are now. In 1959, thirty westerns were running in prime time on US television. Every active superhero in the Marvel Universe would have to have a show to be that omnipresent. Sally Forth Pearls Before Swine Peanuts (February 3, 1974(!)) If February seems a little early for DST, that's because in 1974 Nixon has just signed the Emergency Daylight Savings Time Act into effect as one prong in the fight against the energy crisis. The DST experiment lasted 18 months, long enough for people to get sick of the whole idea. Putting your kids out at the bus stops on pitch-black streets during the shorter days of winter has a way of changing opinions. In the end, it was totally useless for the goals they were trying to achieve, so it's appropriate to The Way We Live Now that there's a bill in Congress to make it permanent. Funky Winkerbean Crankshaft "Classic" Mutt and Jeff Life (With Skippy) (March 12, 1925) Elsewhere in the issue: It's the St. Patrick's Day number, but Charles Forbell's contribution is the only one that rang my chimes this morning. Toonerville Gap Pluggers, with more 1916 panels we missed on the first pass.
