Bruceski posted:My football is a little rusty but isn't strong-arming the head like that a foul? Or is it only if you touch the facemask he's half an inch away from? By the rulebook, yes, that's supposed to be 'illegal hands to the face', but the strip is correct in that it's almost always called on the defense.

quote:Mark Trail So the magical elephant vengeance GPS wore off when convenient for the author? Color me impressed. And he "did some digging"? How? How does this timing work? Tess is chased by an elephant, outruns her impending death, then flees the country? Did she post about it on social media(making her stupid) or did whats his name here sniff her out in... the middle of the wilderness, traveling to an airport, and fleeing the country? I guess he hacked her credit card transactions and plane tickets. Wow, everybody in Mark Trail develops super powers when they need them! And another Mark Trail character steps off camera and teleports away with multiple outstanding arrest warrants, and hey, way to ruin all surprise for her return!  Barf. An entire week of last second rear end covering, retcons and undeserved victory laps, as Mark did literally nothing here. No, seriously. If Mark wasn't present then they would've gone to sacrifice Rex and the elephant would've interrupted it and ran Tess off. I don't think Mark has thrown a punch in a year. Ahh, there's ol' talking snake, a reminder of when this strip had any potential. I love to bitch about this strip(it's seriously in Batiuk's league) but drat, I dunno how you write a story about a guy who can talk to animals, send him to a tiger petting zoo full of abused animals to solve a mystery, insert a traumatized vengeful elephant into the mix, and not a single animal shares any words or emotional reveals with him. Imagine the pure shock Tess would experience if Mark discovers her secrets and all her cultists have stonewalled him and denied him entry to anything, but the tiger cubs can tell him the food tastes funny and so on. It's such an easy set-up. Instead he got an exposition dump from a moron. I hope we learn what happened to Zippy the lazy cultist tomorrow! quote:Rex Morgan MD  And here's a story that actually disappoints me with its tragic content instead of its tragic quality. Mud... no...

Drakyn posted:Am I out of my mind here or is this him trying to get revenge on his manager for.... being friendly with him while having a boyfriend? He did overhear them talking about what a sap he is and that he's being strung along, though the terms are so light they just think he's a bit pathetic and not that they needed to scam him from day one to make him successful. quote:
Haraiso Days is so manga cliched at times you can see the plotlines 5 strips in advance so I assume it's stereotypical bad anime tropes: Tarohei wrote her a love song and if she was truly a good woman she would've immediately responded to that and confessed to him! Instead of ah, him just asking her directly if she's up for a date. And him forgetting that they're making him famous and he's probably set on money and fans for life and I bet one of them would like him for him. It's a classic anime/manga love trope and honestly a stinker that I assume is rooted in some bad old Japanese social traditions bleeding through the authors of them, but it sells and is enough to be the basis of an entire series, so. But much like too many animes to count we're supposed to side with the boy who is terminally afraid of social conflict and directly stating his wants. At least the joke is really good and I like it even if he's in the wrong, Tarohei singing the bangin' the farmer's daughter song and all.

It's always weird when Retail talks about shoplifting, it's like the one time I completely disagree with the strip. Why do all these random minwage workers want to accost people over stealing a sweater or a silverware set or whatever? At least with the most recent strip we get some hypocrisy from Stewart that shows the weird double standard between customer and employee policy, but more often than not the "punchline" is "boy I wish we could tackle the dude trying to steal $40 in office supplies".
