Because it's a respectable job for a smart person that makes a decent amount of money. Their interests are not important because they are a dumb kid who doesn't understand yet. It's always a good gloat to talk about "my child, the doctor".

Bizarro Agreed. The Family Circus Slylock Fox Left unspoken is Slylock's presumption that even a mad scientist wouldn't have left the candle burning unattended. There's mad and then there's crazy.

You want your bubbling, foaming liquid to be producing clouds of vapour as quickly as possible. That stuff is probably barely a liquid at room temperature. It's boiling from a single candle heating a big, full, round bottom flask. That's not normal.

NVTrainee posted:So, what's the thread consensus on Prince Valiant lately? I remember many threads ago that it was more negative, but it could've been different people talking about it opposed to now. Compared to other comic strips, the art is gorgeous and I love the weekly story updates. It has its dips -- not every story arc is a masterpiece and like any comic from the 50s it has its ugly moments -- but it's so excellent so frequently that it's hard not to have a high opinion of it.

Mr. Squishy posted:So, from left to right, top to bottom: Barney Google, Sluggo from Nancy in the hat. Flip from Little Nemo talking to a kid in a tie and an ostrich, neither of whom I recognize. It's a little too early for Sluggo. That's Jimmie Dugan from Reg'lar Fellers, which might be a good one to get around to eventually. The kid with the tie's a little bit off-model, but aw, come on...

I really wanna read Fungoid. "Skip" Perkins! The shorter stories with no b plots might really help Mark Trail's pacing a lot but Jules phoned in an even more embarrassing nothing story than usual so it's very hard to tell. Also beating the boat thing to death and then the corpse into dust.

He's been a lot duller than usual. The strip normally lurches between Jeremy is an idiot/Jeremy does a shitload of advanced classes, but he's been on a real zero-thought thing recently. Maybe he's stoned as gently caress. Explains the appetite.

I had to double check what that mess of green was in the middle left section of Panel 2 in Mark Trail. Those are some...quality alligators alright.

Kennel posted:Dustin Sorry, but I have to get this off my chest. What's her name, Megan? I hate her. Constantly digging into Dustin with her awful wisecracks whenever he has an interest of doing something or looking for jobs when she hasn't ever expressed interest in getting a job of her own while she's old enough to actually get one herself (as far as I remember)? If I dealt with a person like that for a long time, I'd punch them in the face. I know it's a bit extreme but she's the worst.

Nekonaughey [Setsubun is a festival held at the beginning of Spring. A traditional ritual of which is mamamaki, bean-throwing, where evil spirits are chased out of the house by people throwing beans, either out the door or at someone dressed up as an evil spirit who flees the house - typically either the male head of the household, or someone who was born on this year's zodiac (this year is the rabbit!)]

Wasn't the boat explosion from her first Mark Trail arc? Or was that a reference to another famous Mark Trail boat explosion? They bring up the boat a lot but no one talks about how Mark blew up a police helicopter in that arc too iirc
