It's really incredible how bad Jules is at villains. I don't even know who this guy is (they've had so many "tech bro" baddies), and I should be all about hating him.

My Lovely Horse posted:Makes perfect sense in Kelleyparkerworld. A lawyer is a successful respectable person who has Made It Through Hard Work and Has Money unlike the lazy youths, and simultaneously a lawyer siphons your hard earned cash because the law has you pay taxes and parking tickets and poo poo. Much like a doctor is a respectable person with money but he tells you you can't eat all the meat and donuts and you have to exercise. My prayer is that Kelley has suffered a near-fatal stroke and this is Parker seizing the opportunity to poo poo on the strip while still being vaguely Kelley-esque.

I maintain a normal level of hate for FOOB, but something about this one in particular is spiking me. Remember being a kid and how it was your responsibility to check the sump pump in the crawlspace every time it rained???? This totally normal scenario she didn't invent whole cloth so that the son (greedy; slovenly; a drain on life and happiness) could once again disappoint the mother (without sin; a modern day Job; unloved and unappreciated by terrible children)

If it wasn’t his fault this time I’m sure he will do something stupid that he wasn’t caught for yet or in the near future. Why yes, I live by myself and never get visitors. How did you know? In the Wallace it’s using the old trope of the teacher having a 6th sense about trouble makers or eyes on the back of her head.

If it wasn’t his fault this time I’m sure he will do something stupid that he wasn’t caught for yet or in the near future. Kids can be pieces of poo poo, but blaming your teenager because of an issue that was out of their control is a lovely thing to do. It's probably never occurred to Lynn how terribly she comes across in this strip of hers, but it's pretty telling how her default is 'scream at the top of your lungs' because you teen (checks notes) slept late and the basement leaked.

This also gives us something specific enough that it's easier to explain why it's a bizarre expectation. When I was a teenager, the extent of my sump pump related responsibilities would have been "say something if you notice water in the basement when you happen to be down there". Presumably if there was ever serious enough rain that mom would have been worried about flooding, she'd have told me to proactively check for it. She was also not a weirdo who'd get mad when a teenager  slept late on the weekend. Almost like she had reasonable expectations for how teenagers are or something.

Pancho Jueves posted:If my main character was a lawyer, I wouldn't do a series on how lovely lawyers are. But that's just me. Ed is a lawyer because lawyer jokes are easy and jokes about lawyers' customers are easy. Ed is fat and has a self-control of a toddler because those jokes are easy. Dustin is lazy and gets fired from every job because those jokes are easy and you can make a different occupation joke every week. Helen likes shopping because those jokes are easy. She's a radio host because jokes about stupid callers are easy. Megan is a teenager because those jokes are easy. When two characters interact, the lesser becomes the butt of a joke. Sometimes they switch places. There is no actual character development. Everyone exists only to be a vessel for an easy joke.

That's the whole thing - it's not "you should have checked" because it was your specifically assigned responsibility; it's "you should have checked" because sleep on weekends is a waste time when you could have been doing something productive, like checking the sump pump.

Kennel posted:Ed is a lawyer because lawyer jokes are easy and jokes about lawyers' customers are easy. This cements all my hatred for Dustin in one simple post. The entire premise only exists so Skelley can make the laziest, easiest "jokes" known to man, all of which have been done before and better, and always tend to be the oldest and meanest, because they come from a time when the only joke was being a piece of poo poo for no reason.
