Darthemed posted:Retail I used to work at a hospital (office stuff) and the CFO was giving a speech. She went to my supervisor and let her know I didn't have my shirt tucked in. Per the dress code, the shirt I was wearing (a Polo-style) was not required to be tucked in. I noticed that she was actually in violation of the dress code for women which stated they were not allowed to wear sandals where the thong went between the toes. My supervisor just brushed the whole off with a laugh. The CFO would later "seek other avenues of employment" after she botched an annual revenue report that cost the hospital over $30M dollars.

PainterofCrap posted:I'm guessing that, since our hero is middle-aged, that he's referring to Congressman & Secretary John Sherman and his dim view of the use of government paper to stabilize (Civil War) war debt: Alternatvely, it’s a reference to Sherman’s brother, William Tecumseh Sherman, who famously said “War is hell.” True is being bankrupted by having to buy war bonds, so he’s saying Sherman was right about war being hell.

Green Intern posted:I am getting a bit tired of Mukku being the Naïve Foreigner. I don't think he is. This man has seen some poo poo, been driven from his home and homeland, lost his entire family/extended family except for his deeply traumatized wife. He is in a very foreign land, sure, but one where no one is shooting at him or hacking his family and neighbors to pieces on a whim. There is little that will freak him out, and he has survived by living the plus-side of life's balance sheet. He knows damned well what is going on and he rolls with it. And usually pitches straight in to help.

Rhymes with Orange Get Fuzzy 6/10/01 Stephen Collins Brenda Starr 8/26-28/46 Smokey Stover 8/31/41 Richard's Poor Almanac Another set of reworked jokes. Deathless Deer 6/10-12/43 "Fortunately, I know a guy in Idaville who specializes in this sort of thing." For a 3,000-year-old Egyptian queen, Deer sure internalized 1940s gender roles pretty quickly, didn't she?

Selachian posted:Brenda Starr 8/26-28/46 I skip a few days reading Brenda Starr and I have absolutely no idea what's going on. But I gotta say, compared to what most story comics look like when you do that, this one is at least pretty attention grabbing sans context. quote:Deathless Deer 6/10-12/43 I'm very much getting the impression that whoever's writing the story now is just hoping that people forget what the premise of the comic was.

Vintage Valiant (Sep. 16, 1945) My friends are all just out of frame, laughing at comics too. The Medieval Castle (Sep. 16, 1945) I guess that's not a full saddle but Hubert is clearly sitting on something! Mikl posted:This reads very much like Guy having a crush on Hubert, not gonna lie. I can't imagine it's intended to read that way, but the parallel here between Guy/Hubert and Melisande/Arn is pretty hard to ignore.

Although interesting to read it's really a shame how clearly we can see all the ways Deathless Deer could be a uniquely weird and cool comic and then it's just pretty bad and is now correcting by becoming a bog standard action comic of the time. I guess Abu/Ali got arrested or died off screen as soon as he was spontaneously rewritten to be a Nazi Gang Boss(seriously, the Ape just punched him.) "I must become a good housewife." No, please, go back to the Deer who drew a knife and advanced on somebody for anachronistic misunderstandings.
