Bad Machineryronya posted:I think this one didn't appear in the original webcomic run...? Kazinsal posted:Something I'm noticing a fair bit in this Bad Machinery re-read is the background ways that John Allison depicts the class differences between the characters' families. Look at the grot and stains in the corner of the wall near the cheap table with chairs that have no backs that Colm's working at, and the piled up bills in front of the door. Contrast that to Mildred's family home, which is absolutely spotless. Even Shauna's home, which isn't exactly upper class (I believe it's said they live in a council estate, which my understanding is that's a britishism for public row housing) at least is depicted as being fairly clean.

Hostile V posted:Funny Online Award-Winning Richard Linklater "Documentary" Friggin' loved this one. "Me & You" was my favorite KCG project in a while, he does such a good job of marrying Tom & Jerry/Roadrunner & Wile E. Coyote antics with dead-eyed cynicism.

The Dinette Set isn't good at mingling. Working Daze really leans into the nostalgia. Super-Fun-Pak Comix is a downward spiral. Cul De Sac might actually be stalling.

I don't know how many more strips there are in the Those Were the Days archives, but it feels like we've already hit the point where Beeman's over the concept and is just looking for a regular excuse to draw a bikini girl as a representation of The 50'sTechnowolf posted:Pet them instead: Sharks are smooth as Hell

Professor Wayne posted:Pickles Now there's a boomer joke you don't generally think of as such. Yeah, kids our day could fix computers, because that was what we had to use to do stuff. But kids these days grow up on tablets and cell phones with the same user-friendly interfaces designed for old people. In this day and age you can't even trust that a kid knows what a mouse or trackpad is, let alone where the settings are for fiddling with it. Darthemed posted:Docks We get it. White people are bad. Just because something is true doesn't make it a joke you can repeat several times in a row. quote:Popular Comics, double Terry edition I am continually irritated by goon sacrificing evil plans that could only possibly work if the goons are idiots incapable of making painfully obvious logical deductions. I just saw a movie where the villain's plan to incinerate his own gangsters only fails because the heroes had replaced the exploding gasoline in the tanks with water, and the goons immediately come to his aid next scene having somehow not realized that if the gasoline had been in the tanks like they had been told, they would have all been killed.

Haifisch posted:That's the (indoor) thermostat, not anything measuring outdoor temperatures. He's supposedly checking to make sure it's set high enough that the pipes won't freeze. While I suspected a Metric Mix-up, this is weird. A metric thermostat for a house that has the option to set the temperature to 70° C seems insane. Surely they're not taking him at his word that he set the thermostat to 70°, are they? I guess it could make sense if the house is new, and the thermostats were required to display in Celsius because of the recent metrification, but the Canadian investigators and the perp were thinking in Fahrenheit, so nobody actually looked at the thermostat. Seems like a lot to stuff into one remaining comic, though.
