Hel posted:Didn't know the curse of audiophiles had been around for so long. High-fidelity ("high-fi") was a huge thing in the early to mid 1950s. Improved technology was able to create a genuinely better sound than the somewhat tinny and distorted records produced up through the 1940s. The term "high-fi" would mostly disappear in the late 50smand early 60s as multichannel recordings became popular, which is when the term "stereo" became dominant.

He did destroy things, true, but most of the time it was either accidental, or him being a first-grader and not realising what he was doing. It's hard to pin down what Calvin would be like as a real kid, but it doesn't surprise me that the people behind Dustin would view him that way. They don't give the impression that they're fond of kids who are anything other than perfectly obedient robots. As for the "tribute," it feels pretty lazy, and I find it funny that they feel the need to keep saying who they're dressed as. Vintage Valiant (Dec. 28, 1947)

I had to read it a few times, because the first two I thought Lynn was imagining herself as the witch in the final panel. But no, even that would be too self-aware.

My Lovely Horse posted:Lynn's parenting attitude in a nutshell: children are supposed to be cute and obedient in the exact way mommy imagines, and if not, they are evil and to be punished. Yep. The clearest example of her mentality in a while - only her idealized version of motherhood matters, actually understanding or working with her children to have a fun experience together is completely outside her understanding.

Though that's probably not the writer's intention, it seems to me that the principal is bending over backwards to avoid firing her.

I can see that but the vibe I get is that Luann is finally casting off the tedium and mediocrity of a dumb lame job with kids to go learn cool self-driven side hustle work with Tara. And that we're supposed to think Stan and the angry parent are jerks. But it wouldn't be Luann without the obtuse storytelling.

You guys are giving Luann way too much credit. You must always remember that, if ever given the chance, Luann will NEVER choose to do something interesting.

Boy oh boy is this speaking to me right now. On that note - In today's Blueberry: Alistair and Blueberry disagree over practical applied physics, or I LEARNED IT FROM YOU, DAD!, or I must confess to some more editorializing on my part here - the original translation has Blueberry rescue Alistair because he doesn't want him to fall into the hands of the Indians - I feel that my choice of dialogue here fits the story better (I just didn't want it to go un-noted)

In addition, pleated chinos with too much material through the thigh and a polo shirt with an inexplicable single giant color band around the mid-torso are an extremely 1997 "My Mom dressed me like this to 'look nice'" outfit.

Bruceski posted:A coffee vending machine but with broth. One of my old workplaces had those, your basic hot water + powder kind of machines. You could get plain hot water (provide your own tea bags), reasonable hot chocolate, punishingly bad coffee, or mostly okay chicken bouillon out of them. They were free, which was definitely the right price point for them; I don't know that anyone would've ever used them otherwise. There's plenty of room in the vending-machine arena for someone to do better.

It's such a no-brainer idea that I have to wonder what the hold-up is. The United States is leaps and bounds behind Japan in both convenience store food and vending machine technology  .And heck, you don't even really see hot coffee / hot chocolate machines anymore. I would've killed for one when I was laid up overnight in an airport and nothing was open.
