Yeah, it's pretty obvious where this is going: Sally is going to figure out very quickly that she's too old for this poo poo and go back to running every morning.

I have a hard time with that part too. The comic is great when it follows what an unmitigated poo poo show every single characer's life is.

Every now and then it seems to try to make a character more sympathetic - but then undoes it a few strips later. I don't know if that's because it's about an entire cast of characters decending into madness together or because the writer didn't mean to undo it and just has a really strange sense of what makes a character sympathetic.

It's not like it matters, though. I'm still going to be reading it until the bitter end.

Luann looks so put upon that her friend and guy she likes invited her to come along with them to do something fun. What a loving wiener. What, does she have anything better planned if Piro asked to hang out with her?

Can I mention, besides all the other problems with modern Popeye, how annoying I find it that Pappy is all of a sudden the biggest villain in the Popeyeverse? Not Bluto/Brutus, not the Sea Hag, but Pappy.

Pappy always was a deadbeat and a man of few morals, but I always liked how he and Popeye reconciled in Altman's film version especially because it was made clear, without doing any kind of processing after the fact, that the two missed and thought of each other a lot while estranged. I don't like how Randy is handling the character. Pappy can be a schemer and occasionally a jerk without being a super bastard bad guy everybody hates, cause he should also be helpful and decent when family and friends are in need or even just when he feels like it.

"Télapó is actually Ded Moroz-a figure similar to Father Christmas/Santa Claus"

"Ded Moroz is a legendary figure similar to Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas and Santa Claus who has his roots in Slavic mythology. The tradition of Ded Moroz is mostly spread in East Slavic countries and is an important part of Russian culture. Although at the beginning of the Soviet era communist authorities banned Ded Moroz he soon became an important part of the Soviet culture. The literal translation is "Grandpa Frost".

Ded Moroz is depicted as bringing presents to well-mannered children, often delivering them in person in December days and secretly under the Christmas tree on night at 31 December on New Year's Eve. In East Slavic cultures, Ded Moroz is accompanied by Snegurochka, his granddaughter and helper."
