If you don't let the grass get crazy and you have one of those small suburban yards like in the strip, push-reel mowers are pretty nice. Low maintenance, no noise, no pollution, and they work just fine. I used one for years until I got a secondhand electric from someone who was upgrading.

Every year about this time I think about getting one and then I don't and just let the grass get long and lovely instead.

Again a very likpatous story

Yeah see, this is the horseshit that someone else was mentioning. Forgiving your abuser can be helpful to people to overcome their trauma, but pushing "The only way you'll ever know peace is to forgive them!" is really gross and I hate this, I hate this so much, god drat gently caress you Mary Worth.

You're probably right although I still think the answer should be the ambulance drivers because ambulances don't just cruise around neighborhoods looking for injured people to pick up.

You know, you'll never find peace until you forgive Mary Worth for this. May I suggest seeing a random therapist one time, who will offer you a few empty platitudes which will instantly solve all your problems?

As a point of order, The Flash #123 opened with Barry Allen walking down a street to the community centre, where his girlfriend is hosting a charity event for the orphans, and upon arriving learns that the magician hasn't shown up so he lies and says he'll phone the Flash to fill in. Then the Flash arrives (pictured there) and performs the following magic tricks: beating himself at tennis, and climbing a rope then accidentally teleporting himself to a parallel dimension for the rest of the comic.

Accidentally, my rear end.

Larsson is shown here as completely calm, but in the book he gets furious, when the countess suggests Ester/gardener marriage. Larsson thinks she's planning that Ester would marry Karl Bertelsköld because they are out of money (without knowing that Larsson has just lost majority of his wealth). He calms down when the situation is explained.

As much as it deserves its spot on the shitlist, the art in Dustin is good and shows attention to detail. That ball of hangers isn't just random scribbles, you can make out individual ones even in the middle, the two different styles are a nice touch, and I particularly enjoy the single one hanging off the bottom.

I still hate it, but if I had to say something positive less negative about it would be that at least he seems to have mostly stopped doing the incredibly irritating head-back-eyes-closed-grimace pose he used to do all the loving time. I could only find one example from this year:



It's not the only thing I hate about the art, but it's at the top of the list.
