Pun olympics at Fingerpori today:  The literal translation would be "being fished over is threatening to fish tree stumps". Ylikalastus = overfishing like in English, but also "fishing over something". Kalakanta = fish population, but it's a compound word that breaks down into kala + kanta. Kalakanto = fish tree stump, breaking down into kala + kanto. Now, due to the funny way Finnish grammar works, the plural partitive case for both kanta and kanto is the same, "kantoja". Funnily enough, the singular partitive case isn't the same: kantaa vs kantoa. Shaman Tank Spec fucked around with this message at 11:40 on Jul 12, 2022 |

Having just caught up on Brenda Starr, I don't think "making sense" was high on the list of priorities. The list seems to have been to draw good girl art peppered with screwball jokes. Most popular strip in the world for a minute there.

Ma sent her daughter out to call her son back. Her son would not heed his sister's call, so Ma is plucking a stick from a tree to beat her son with for disobedience.

Tiggum posted:For a long time, Brenda Starr was about a supposed reporter who never wrote an article but did go on a lot of holidays, but for a while now I'm pretty sure it's been someone's recollections of their dreams. Things just happen for no reason and then abruptly, something else happens instead. The bad guy of the last arc? Well, he's Brenda's friend now, I guess. And the new bad guy's got a plan that sort of ties into the old bad guy's plan but not really in any way that makes sense. Messick said in interviews that she did get plot ideas for the strip in her dreams, so you may not be that far off.

It's less a magic tree than a giving tree. It gives kids who don't stay in line stripes on their backsides.
