riderchop posted:Safe Havens This may not be the worst comic in this thread but it's the one I most consistently throw up my hands at. Like, okay, this strip is now about mermaids turning into fish. Previously it was humans willingly turning themselves into plants. I guess.

Honestly, this is what's kinda infuriating with newspaper comics. You're telling a story with maximum four panels a day and you choose to waste a panel on saying "yes, the prison is indeed empty".

amigolupus posted:Yeah, that's supposed to be Mindy, one of the twin girls who hang around all the time with that old writer lady. Supposedly, FW takes place 10 years after Crankshaft, despite it not making any sense due to how both strips tackle the same real-life issue at the same time. But the last arc in Funky Winkerbean had that incredibly stupid poo poo with the Time Janitor explaining away the discrepancy as a "Time Bubble" and that he was gonna remove it so that FW and Crankshaft now take place in the same time. Just to make sure this is in this particular thread somewhere, Mindy is not one of the twin girls. She's Jeff's daughter, Ed's granddaughter, and one of the catalysts for Ruby's belated recognition at another convention. The one which got derailed because ONE SIDE, TOOTS, IT'S GUY TIME.  Aged-up versions of the twins (Amelia and Amanda, the ultimate interchangeable blondes) actually showed up in Funky Winkerbean several times when it was circling the drain, and one of their last acts before the Time Janitor handwave was graduating high school. That makes their backtracking especially cruel, because now they get to be 8 again.  You made me remember all of this. Grrr. And speaking of "questioning the life choices that led me to this moment", Crankshaft's son-in-law haunts the dealers' room at the SDCC.  Mutts  Sally Forth, featuring Ted's dad bod.

maybealabia posted:That's the "new normal" Scooby Doo: Mystery Inc basically kept you guessing whether the supernatural was real or not during the first season. The answer is very clear in the second season. Enjoyed it, though. Need to splice some time to watch it again. It also answered the "Why can Scooby Doo talk?" question, which I still think was probably better left as a genre convention, but the show was so wild at that point it's a minor gripe.

Ouch, that stinging Retail realism in writing. "You'll just have to come down on Electronics to make it happen." Should the warranties be useful, fairly priced, or reasonably expected? No, those drat clerks must be botching it! Jucika "146 - Jucika Learns To Skate"  "Büfé = buffet/bar/canteen" "147 - Jucika Receives A Present"

This thread has probably litigated this thoroughly, but "I'm going to double my covid 10" is such clunky dialogue. Took me several minutes to figure out what the gently caress she was saying.
