The_Other posted:One thing to keep in mind with Charlie Brown’s various misfortunes is that we’re meant sympathize with the character of Charlie Brown, as opposed to Dustin where we are supposed to be scornful of the title character. Hey uhhhh remember when I said the editorial reading of Dustin was completely different than what we thought it read as? ANYWAY Breaking Cat News    Phoebe and Her Unicorn    Wallace the Brave    Heart of the City    Curtis  "...and why don't they pull up their pants, too?!"

Hostile V posted:[loudly tilts my head as I look at this] Vargo posted:What THE gently caress The Pondusman has always been the straightest, whitest dude, so it would not at all surprise me if he thinks trans is just what you call crossdressing now. That or it's the world's speediest transition. I've genuinely always loathed Pondus, it never does anything except punch down on others.

Yeah. Řverli, who writes and draws Pondus, has a lot of outdated views about LGBTQ issues.

I am sure that Dustin to them is just an ordinary family strip with snarky humor. Just like to most people foob is a slice-of-life strip depicting a Canadian family in the 80s-90s.

I thought "supporting the other team" was supposed to be a stupid euphemism for sexual orientation, not gender identity. Geez Řverli, get it right

He thinks being trans means a person swaps back and forth at the drop of a hat depending on which suits their current needs.

Someone is selling over 17 years of Sunday comics from the Missoula MT newspaper. $550 seems pretty steep to me but maybe others will think it's a deal. https://missoula.craigslist.org/clt/d/missoula-17-years-of-vintage-sunday/7497673416.html I live nearby so I could pick them up but I can't even imagine how heavy they would be to ship to someone.

But the artist clearly assumed it meant notebooks. Except if they have a proper hardcover book binding, they're usually called "blank books" instead of "notebooks". Google or Amazon will back me up here, even if Wikipedia doesn't. What the wiki article is talking about, where the pages are left blank as a punchline, haven't ever really been a common enough thing to have their own name. And they certainly wouldn't all be in their own section at a bookstore.

You're saying that Moleskine, noted manufacturer of "Notebooks, diaries, journals and planners" secretly makes "blank books"?

Where on Earth are you getting a specific brand name from? e: Quoting the strip we're talking about for reference: Kennel posted:Dustin I admit that the line between a notebook and a blank book is more than a little blurry, but this is not some obscure phraseology that only Steve Kelley and I have heard of. Search for "blank book" on Amazon and you'll find a million of them. Ask at your local bookstore and they'll point you to the shelf of them.

There's a brand called "Paperblanks." This isn't as obscure as you think

You're upset because he didn't tell you he was actually a snake, but you didn't tell him you were actually a mongoose so I have no idea how you can still be on this level of moral outrage! I'm glad I'm not the only person being pissed off by the mongoose acting the victim here, jfc Holbrook

Powered Descent posted:...It's a line drawing of a book. Where on Earth are you getting a specific brand name from? The little strappy dealy. It's not exactly on model, but it looks about right if the artist was drawing a Moleskine from a written description. I believe you that blank books are a thing. I've been buying them for years and I've never heard that term before.

The only criticism I remember hearing first-hand about Bob Ross is that my mother snarked about how he suggested detail rather than actually painting it, and my artist granddad (politely, he was that sort of guy) told her to shove it. If you didn't want to see his show there's nothing in it that would attract viewers, but it was wonderful chill background noise and seeing what he could do in half an hour.
