EasyEW posted:It's easy to assume a big part of it was because in the 1970s that "one thing" was made up of just shy of 20,000 individual school districts, each with their own school boards, superintendents, but also their own PTAs, who would be more than happy to give a school system blowback from personal disruptions to morning routines (because of that last thing Hwurmp just said). Cloth pads actually are a thing and they're not terrible to wash!  (not that the author would know that)

Doomykins posted:Tom, Space Cadet is pretty decent. Rock solid gag and timing on the last strip there. IIRC the last time this got brought up, the herbavores are only allowed to use their natural weapons to defend themselves. Except the one human, because his species has trait is "tool use."

it's a hate crime if you're doing it out of racism, presumably, as opposed to just being hungry? that's my guess at the holbrook logic. and probably to Make Commentary the judge will let them off because they can't prove it wasn't just hunger

Here’s the real problem with the NOPE coyotes being taken away strip: A bat mixed with a hedgehog is indeed an abomination. It wouldn’t be able to fly, or have enough quills to defend itself. I know it’s magic Holbrook world, but he’s trying to make a statement about the real world. Making it an allegory for racism is terrible, because it implies that there’s something physically wrong with mixed race children.

The Better Homes cookbook is respectable, imho; the real shame move is being a grown-rear end adult and still using those cookbooks marketed at college guys with names like For The Love Of God Don't Put A Raw Egg In Your Mouth You loving Idiots

hexwren posted:gently caress you, joy of cooking or get the gently caress out my kitchen I've got a copy of my maternal grandmother's cookbook binder of recipes she's found/collected over the past 60 years and it's a godsend. Some of my favourites are photocopies of recipes she typeset herself on a Macintosh II in the early 90s. I don't ever have aspirations of seeing the world live long enough for me to have grandkids, but if by some miracle that happens, I'm going to make sure they get a copy.

Doomykins posted:I just realized with Holbrook, who I try to avoid reading but skimmed today. OK, so you can't kill anyone you know because that's murder and not preying on them, very significant difference totally provable either way, fine. Why don't herbivores ever kill in self defense? Cause I skimmed the strips and thought "it's really nice of them to take those wolves prisoner." I assume there's some stupid poo poo like "the magic bird people forbid guns" but you're telling me nobody carries a knife? Yeah yeah, the "heroes" are "good" except for that bone spitting fatality for the avatar of death rabbit child, el oh el. Funny enough nobody including the author seems to think about "being stomped to death by a rhino" or "stabbed with a rhino horn" or various other things because yes, a lot of herbivores will loving fight to the death in real life. EDIT: Also yes, the human kid's Species Has Characteristic is "Tool Use". Also, there' a cat who's a car mechanic. No, the comic doesn't seem to think these don't match up.

I love these kinds of jokes but I still feel compelled to point out that there *are* examples of humanoid angels in the Bible, Internet jokes be damned. (There are also Heavenly Beings with all kinds of crazy looks so carry on).

Look, some nights Nice Lady In A Robe Angel is on Jeffy-watching duties, some nights it's Wheels and Eyes and Wings and More Wheels And More Eyes Angel. The important thing is that they rotate shifts fairly so nobody is stuck in the interminable hell of hanging out with Jeffy

i know i should save the biotruths for Holbrook, but loving hell Lynn, do not let a toddler near a new dog mom! Kids get loving bit for less than that, and even a dog who loves kids can go after people who get too close to their pups.

I can't wait for her to verbally eviscerate Copper Ma once he comes back home.

I know people said this is what parenting was like in the 80s, but it feels so careless. Every time FOOB has a strip where the toddler wanders outside the house by herself gives me anxiety, like that time she slipped into the neighbor's yard to sleep next to their dog.

A friend of mine in college used a motorized wheelchair, and if we went somewhere on campus without using a car, it was perfectly normal to say that we all walked there, without bothering to clarify that one of us was technically rolling.

Keep in mind that from her own recollection, Lynn was a lovely parent IRL (throwing her own kid out into a snowstorm because it was being a baby). But also taking place 40 years ago in suburban Canada, kind of feels like another, safer world.
