It's not short of people ripping on it, but Jesus i *hate* that a good 60% of IL strips are "Skip sits at weird angle on couch with %FRIEND/GIRLFRIEND% and talks about looking forward to %POP CULTURE EVENT%

I accidentally read one once where the girlfriend is excited about the She-Hulk TV series and says "w00t", it made me physically angry

That third panel of the first comic just makes it. It's still funny if you remove it, but that panel included just makes it top tier.

The songs in this strip are something else.



Sumer is icumen in.

In the fourth panel, "nu?" while being Medieval English for "new," as in the song, is also a Yiddish particle that means something like "so?" or "well?"



"Series and Rowboats" is a pun on the Sears and Roebuck mail-order catalog.
