Okay not to bait the bear, but has Randy ever sexually harassed someone or redone some strip with religious/Trumpy overtones? Because I think you need to take that poo poo back.

Huh, "not sure if he's evil or just unsettling on a genetic level" is how my 4th grade teacher described me. Anyways, I just wanted to say that despite it being a college strip, I'm enjoying Thorn, and similarly I'm enjoying Mousetrapped with the caveat of it's been running for less than a month and seems to be actually building a story, so I'm giving it time. If it still feels like it's in the setup phase in a couple months I'll bitch.

Really enjoying the hell out of Mexikid and NuFlash. The wedding reception has been a great at showing off hints about what the other characters are about, and it's not afraid to show off how even Flash has his flaws.riderchop posted:Safe Havens Considering how Rudy and the gardening team cheat all the time, I'm not sure why these two are even worried. They'll just slip the players some DNA potions and win. Alhazred posted:So they helped a dangerous criminal avoid justice because it server their financial interests. Somehow they're still the good guys. lol I was thinking the same thing. Holbrook has a knack for making his 'heroes' utterly detestable. It's even weirder because I think these set of strips are written during or after 2016, so someone who likes to think they're progressive like Holbrook would have heard all about Trump's actions and how he should go to jail. Hostile V posted:Listen, did they help a notorious serial murderer lie low while also doing bare minimum due diligence to keep future victims safe from him while also letting him make a mockery of the justice system by letting his double die behind bars? Yes. Is the industrialized rapacious murder company now being headed by a substantially more ruthless strategist who wants to commit genocide on her own species because she's a race-faking traitor? Also yes. It's weird, but I kind of like Angelique. Yeah, she's awful, but she's honest about being a terrible person who does all kinds of poo poo. She comes across better than the supposed good guys and their hypocrisy.

Dredging up and integrating minor details from your material's past without ever nailing the basics of the strip's premise? Sounds like splendid qualification to write Dick Tracy!

God drat Gunther is pathetic. That panel 3 is just.. wow. This is a Perhaps Bets is realizing she had the power to choose better all along. Not like she can't go right back to what she likes. It's just a really weird and stupid relationship because the Evans' tried to tie it into the modern day streamer culture but imagine if you had some 1-3m subscriber vtuber listening to their boyfriend tell them to shape up or ship out, even passive aggressively. They might realize hey, lotta fish in the sea? Infatuated fans aren't a high standard of quality, sure, but it does let you think that maybe you aren't dependent on the guy who doesn't understand compromise. Then again maybe this is great writing all along because it is 100% accurate to the dipshit nerd guy who gaslights himself into thinking he's better than the manic pixie dream girl who found him until he breaks the relationship. Bets feels vulnerable and listless because she just majorly disrupted her routine and gave up a source of pride and mental stimulation(projects, media management, etc.) Gun's first thought is that it sure is inconvenient, but he likes having a girlfriend, but he also was attracted to her for many of the same qualities she just gave up. Really syncs up with his earlier weasely giddiness that she was doing worse without him. Maybe I'm biased because it's very easy to dislike Gunther but when is the last time he offered some genuine support? Doomykins fucked around with this message at 12:18 on Jan 19, 2024 |

Julet Esqu posted:Luann If you're at the point where you wonder why you're still together, you do in fact have to consider if you'd be happier apart, even if it's scary. Perhaps especially if it's scary. You can't have a happy relationship on Status Quo alone. Doomykins posted:Maybe I'm biased because it's very easy to dislike Gunther but when is the last time he offered some genuine support? Basically never. As soon as things stopped going the way they were planned (or he imagined them going), he pulled away from Bets.

Breadmaster posted:My high school did a Little Shop of Horrors production where we (as in cast and crew highschoolers) designed and built the set and costumes. We had the flowershop on a pivot point with wheels, so it could be turned around for scene changes by just pushing on one end. This did have a flaw, however, when the piece that actually lets it pivot wasn't slotted in place for one show, and 8 people had to shove that thing into position while the live music stalled for time. We did Little Shop in high school too. One of my all time favorite things I did in school. I got to be one of the puppeteers on the big Audrey (probably 7ft tall). No rotating stage, but we did have a real motorcycle for the dentist bits. riderchop posted:On The Fastrack I'm suddenly reminded of the "Blue Velma" debacle of a few years back People were pointing out how much Sadness from Inside Out looked like a palette swapped Velma, especially fan art
