One thing I've always appreciated about Cul De Sac is that Alice is four. She also behaves like a four-year-old. She is not a baby genius, a precious angel, or a constant nightmare; she is four. She has mood swings, weird impulses, strange priorities, and very little moral compass. I also appreciate that the adults around her recognize that she is four. They correct her when needed because they are trying to raise a functional human being here, but they understand that she is a little kid and don't give her constant poo poo for being a four-year-old. Petey also has his eccentricities and the adults are firm when needed but still accept that he's a kid and is not going to act like a mini adult. Even rereading these same strips for the Nth time, it's still refreshing. These are also good: Ever try to explain to a younger co-worker how to save something? "Just click on the little floppy disk. Oh... uh... It's that blue square thing with the circle in the middle..."

But saying "there's no accomplishment without sacrifice" just comes across as the mom acting like a martyr again. Stultus Maximus posted:I don't think the strip is meant to imply that she was unaware of all of that, but that she chose to let the kid make a mess that she'd deal with later rather than keep interrupting the cooking and ruin the meal. What's funny is that back when this was first drawn, people probably didn't bat an eye about babies getting into drawers and such. But due to the sliding timeline making this take place around 2021, the mom looks irresponsible for not bothering to childproof the cupboards. amigolupus fucked around with this message at 01:30 on Jun 7, 2021 |

April is fully under the sink here, where most people keep their cleaning supplies. To be fair, I don't see any here so maybe child-proofing in this family involved putting the bleach in a higher cupboard or something. I hope so.

Vargo posted:I really don't understand the point of these "Flash Forward" strips. I like some of them, in fact there's a lot I'd have loved to see go to full production, but I don't really either? I thought it was supposed to be a thing where they'd gauge reactions to find someone to reboot it, but they just... haven't? How long has it been going on now? Anyways, my parents got a cleaning bot, not a Roomba but a knock-off, for Christmas a few years back, and my God is it the dumbest motherfucker. Maybe I just expected too much from them, but it cannot find its way around a room to save its life (I'm not sure it's ever cleaned an entire room on its own), and when its finished cleaning it cannot find its way back to the charging station (and a few times has run out its battery just inches from the dock after spending nearly 30 minutes bumping the walls around it). My dad tried to use it to clean the upstairs, but had to stop because it detected it was about to take a tumble down the stairs, realised it shouldn't do that, then it turned around so its sensors were facing away from the stairs and reversed? It's not good at its job, but we love the dumb bastard anyway.

My Lovely Horse posted:I swear I've seen a foob strip where the kid was flat out in the cleaning supplies. It may have been a different strip, but it rings very true for foob. Look, if your guardian angel didn't whisper to you to lock the cleaning supplies away then clearly it's the child's fault for getting poisoned.

Classic Kevin & Kell in: father-daughter bonding (October 7-13, 2001) 1. We get the first confirmation of Ralph's age: he's 30 (he was 16 when he had Corrie, 14 years ago). 2. They moved... Remarkably fast. It seems Corrie moved in with Ralph the very next day after they figured out they're related. 3. They're being remarkably chill about the fact that, a scant two years ago, Corrie skinned Ralph alive. Also the comments for this series of strips are full-on fatshaming Ralph because why not.
