So I have been ignoring 9CL during this whole whatever the gently caress nazis arc it's been doing but if he's supposed to be bleeding then I don't even know. It looks like he was covered in kisses in a cartoon or has a horrible rash or something. That or he ate ALL the pie.

Not only do they, there is one right by the MA-RI border. Gil's dad either lives in or drove all the way out to New Hampshire to get those fireworks yesterday, too.

We still have a couple around here but they're mostly in the middle of big fields so I don't know if you'd be able to watch them as easily as Gil's dad there.

Yes. In my office there's even three right-handed people who use a lefty mouse, and I will often change my mouse side dependent on how much desk space what I'm working on takes up.

I know basically since we've had a PC at my house, I've sort of conditioned my family to use the mouse on the left hand side.

She's had chin-length bobbed hair for this entire story arc. Did it grow to waist length overnight or is this a different woman? It's impossible to tell any of his characters apart because they all have the same faces and bodies and they all talk exactly the same way.

Just posting a little thing to say related to comic strips. I visited the Calvin and Hobbes/Cul de Sac exhibit today at Ohio State and it was very nice. There was a good collection of strips from both, some proto-Calvin and Hobbes, some Richard's Almanacs and lil doodles and stuff. If you're in the Columbus area, you should really check it out. There also was some awesome old strips that I recognized thanks to the thread here :3:

How does the background change so much in between panels? Have they finally reached such a refined level of boring that they're warping reality?

Apartment 3-G is like the Shot-Reverse Shot deal the Star Wars prequels were filmed where you just have 2 cameras, one on each character, and you just keep swapping back and forth. Except you don't have over the shoulder in this case because then you couldn't see their slowly melting faces.

Seeing things like the way Alice's speech balloon can be seen through the dad's head because of the loud shirt thing just makes me so depressed for Thompson. :smith:

This strip seriously belongs right up there with Calvin and Hobbes and The Far Side.

I thought the reason you could see the speech balloon line was due to the fact the shirt was so loud, it was like he was transparent aside from the Hawaiian shirt. drat :smith:

A HUNGRY MOUTH posted:

He's the guy with the rifle, and he's been lying throughout this whole goddamn mishmash of a story to make himself look better. This raises the question of why and how the story is being relayed solely through a guy who either wasn't present (this accounts for over 90% of the 15 months of meandering horseshit on display) or tells self-aggrandizing lies that make no actual sense and contribute nothing to the tale of Brain-Damaged Bill, i.e. what she is supposed to be actually loving trying to find out.

But considering that Brooke has her still talking to this idiot hell geezer, odds are good that she'll come home somehow knowing the true story, or at least facts that she couldn't possibly know because he couldn't possibly know them either. Because why waste such a masterful story on an unreliable narrator??

I don't even remember what she is trying to find out. I don't remember why it's been in WWII for a year and a half now, aside from the fact Brooke has been meandering about nothing. I don't remember anything. Perhaps I am blessed.

I'm trying to figure out how they know the eggs are being replaced with rocks too. There's a picture of a pig but honestly that's all that's there. He's a pig, so maybe he is just eating the ones you drop because pigs are fat and have characteristic. But I guess our protagonists know what is going on at all times.
