My expectation is that he is 100% faking this emotional breakdown and as soon as he is able to get his money, he's going to disappear, only to reemerge a few months later with a new look and a new scam. I hope so, at least.

I agree that this is the most likely outcome, but I sort of hope it isn't because him faking it dramatically and then actually getting something emotionally meaningful out of it by mistake would be hilarious and - I'll admit it - a little heartwarming, even if it's as a coda.

Crankshaft


So Ed got to know the new old lady personally, which makes torturing her with his noncompliance every day that much more fulfilling?

this whole arc makes me feel like I'm taking crazy pills

as someone who went to all of grade school and high school in a rural area (twenty-odd minutes to drive to school directly, an hour on the school bus each way) you'd just...go out there before the bus showed up and wait for five or ten minutes?

of course the bus isn't going to wait for you if you're not there, but who the gently caress needs strategy to catch the bus? you just go to the side of the road (in my case, down the road to the next intersection, like a hundred yards or less) and stand there

The final Crankshaft strip, and it's just the last scene of Tony and Junior from The Sopranos but with Funky and Ed Crankshaft in an assisted living facility.

"You don't know who I am, do ya? I'm Funky. High school band? You remember Lisa, the only woman to ever have cancer? Montoni's...The Pizza Box Monster, the stupid thing that would break up storylines every October? Week-long jokes about a seed catalog? All that poo poo with the grill in space?"
"...I was involved in all that?"
"Yeah, you drove a bus. Badly."
"Hm.

That's nice."

The "joke" is that Crankshaft is a dick who intentionally tries to make kids chase down his bus if they want to get on(and likes to interrogate kids about why they're taking the bus at all, because somehow a literal schoolbus driver can't understand why a parent wouldn't just drive their kid to school). How he hasn't been fired yet is anyone's guess.

Considering how freaking loud drones are and how often the big eared people are shown to have super hearing, why do they need someone to visually keep a lookout for drones that are somehow allowed to operate at maiming height? What do the tall species do? Are there so many drones buzzing around constantly that they can't hear if one is getting close?

He also makes a point to do a bit of property destruction every day by driving over his neighbor's mailbox whenever he parks at home. Crankshaft is a menace to society and should've been put in a home already.

The scientific community already knows you're the cause of Mars' entire ecosystem becoming hosed up and hates your guts, and you're always playing god in your lab anyway. The comic is fictional and full of fantastical elements so nothing's stopping you from making the world a better place. So just use a goddamn DNA potions to fix climate change already.

gently caress you, Holbrook.

Yes, don’t comfort your child or try to cheer them up or anything ‘soft’ like that, but feel free to lay a massive guilt trip on them so they’ll hopefully gently caress off and let you get back to your paper.

I used to think this was a really good comic once upon a time, and I’ll be god damned if I can remember why.

My parents loved FOOB. The concept of a comic strip where the characters aged and grew up was something wholly novel to them, along with it being semi-biographical. Reading it ad nauseum like we do here, including going into the "updated" reruns, really takes the shine off of Lynn's life and work.
