So, did we come in at a weird time for Terry and the Pirates or was it always like this? Because for a long time the only thing I knew about it was a joke in Bloom County ("Is Terry and the Pirates a bad comic?" was the punchline, and I gotta say I'm leaning towards 'yes').

It's interesting to note that fellow Bad Comic Strip Writer With Too Much Character Detail, John Zakour, has done a few of these low-effort "find the mistakes" strips that are the laziest things possible to the point of being infuriating. See, Kevin is a herbivore but the "mistake" is that he's eating meat! Get it? Get it? Eh? Get it? Eh? The Dinette Set is probably just a coincidence.  Working Daze thinks it's smart.  Super-Fun-Pak Comix forgot to tell a joke!  Cul De Sac once again presents the TRUE HARBINGER OF DOOM!

My own Grandmother once did something similar, just a stroke rather than a heart attack. I forget which relative of mine she called, but they got her help at least.

She didn't specifically call about it so it's not quite the same, but one time my grandmother was having a weekly phone chat with my aunt, and my aunt suddenly realized "Wait, you're kind of slurring your words. I think you might be having a stroke, you should call 911 right now." And it turned out, yeah, she had a stroke.

The Dinette Set is going to walk around a bit before then too.  Working Daze nobody cares.  Super-Fun-Pak Comix is probably going to have to talk to HR, too.  Cul De Sac is not a crowd pleaser.

Slammy posted:And He Died! (May 19, 1918) A)  , B) is this a daylight savings time joke? It looks like the US only adopted it in 1918, so it'd fit but also be a very early joke about it, and 3) You know what, I agree.

Working Daze reminds me a lot of Dominic Deagan where the authors seem to have this sort of cargo cult understanding of intelligence or being a nerd and so they fetishize things like books (comic or otherwise) and numbers and things. It's so bizarre.

I once overheard an increasingly upset woman at Costco having a phone conversation, the upshot of which was, "Ma! Stop talking on the phone with me and call 911! No, I can't right now, call an ambulance! Ma! Hang up-- Ma! I don't know if you're okay, Ma, call 91-- MA!" My own grandmother once lay on the floor of her garage all night until my aunt came to check on her the next day and found her there. Grammy had been wearing a life alert bracelet the whole time, but she forgot.  (Grammy has passed on now, but not from that.) Bernice, open your loving mouth and TELL HIM you want to go get something to eat or something. Dude came into this strip as a ladies man (though the Evanses quickly dropped that aspect of his character as soon as they decided to make him Good), I assure you he will not faint dead away nor will he combust with anger at the thought of a girl he knows wanting to date him.

It's amusing to me that apparently the thread spent a while(as in years ago, not recently) not getting that it was supposed to be laugh at, not with, but that might be less obvious to people who aren't familiar with midwest boomer ways.

LazyQ posted:Mämmilä (July 25, 1992) Aune is one of my most hated characters in Mämmilä. There's no way to do the rumormongering she does without intentionally knowing you're stirring up poo poo in other people's lives. Haifisch posted:I'm gonna assume he did the boomer thing where he just kinda got pushed into marrying the first available woman who tolerated being around him more than a month. How his daughter(who's doing at least part of the writing now iirc?) is equally bad at this is baffling to me, though. Maybe Greg vetoes anything that looks too similar to how a normal human capable of communication does things. Are we sure they haven't been living in a bunker all this time, and only send copies of their comics to their editor through a slot in their bunker's door?

Deathless Deer 2/18-20/43 Deer: Almost, but not quite, as useless as Sam Cooper.  "So my boyfriend got eaten by a crocodile and I still has a sad over it and where were we? Oh yeah, you were kidnapping me."  Bird language is surprisingly efficient. And Horus doesn't waste any time either. Also note Myra's neck ribbon, just to make it clear she's a girl bird.
