Does anyone at the syndicate read Computoon? I’m getting worried about Boyce. I understand the joke at a conceptual level, but the expression in the caption is unclear in a way that makes me wonder if something is wrong.

Congratulations, you get to learn that today! It's magical, the news coverage of it used to get passed around on VHS tapes, made it to the early Web and was one of the first videos on Youtube. Among some of us here in Oregon it's an unofficial State holiday.

Kinmokusei is one of those plants found only in East Asia that has quite a few English names, none of which were familiar to me, so I went with the nicest-sounding one, “tea olive.” It really does smell nice.

After School Ghost Stories

The end! No moral, other than perhaps “don’t let someone punch your doppelganger death specter.” (My reading is that punching the death specter caused some sympathetic-magic thing to happen to make Abeken get punched.)

Yeah, I like that the pacing and setup of it mirrors a lot of Japanese creepypasta (full disclosure, I've only read translations of Japanese creepypasta I'm not like super familiar with it), but it's also like, just kids being silly kids. To clarify, I've seen the recurring trope in Japanese creepypasta where the creepy thing doesn't happen to the person supposedly telling the story, but it's secondhand 'my friend, who comes from a long tradition of spirit mediums, told me this cool story about something creepy that happened [to him/to his grandfather/to someone his family works with]', isn't it interesting?'

It reminded me a bit of a fun little manga I remember reading, can't remember what it was called, but it was a series of short ghost stories I think mostly set around a school? I remember one of the stories was about a creepy loving ghost that tries to talk to lone people in one of the halls and you're just supposed to not look at him and pretend he's not there. There wasn't anything more to the story, just a vignette about a girl walking down the hallway after school one day and trying to ignore it, but it was pretty drat effective.
