Fried Chicken posted:kinda hard to sympathize with the protagonists here when they started it with the tossing the selfie stick in the sea On the other hand, there is no context in which a panty raid is not a super creepy thing that reflects poorly on their ability to perceive fee-may-uhls as non-space aliens. I mean poo poo, do you recall the questions they were asked at first meeting?

It never occurred to me before that we'd never seen Jack's dad before but Jack's dad rules, and also retroactively makes everything about Jack make more sense.

Fangz posted:Am I the only one who doesn't trust this guy at all? Probably yeah? I mean, nothing he's saying here seems particularly inconsistent with what we already knew. Shauna's mum didn't seem to harbor any ill will towards him when Mildred tried to pump her for information, so his story seems plausible enough thus far.

Man Lottie has been kind of hard to put up with this chapter. I don't think I've seen her so outright unlikable.

Captain Bravo posted:My two cents are that Linton has forgotten the golden rule of testosterone-fueled teenage boys fighting over a girl. With Colm laying all his cards on the table and casually outing Claire's uh, tendencies, I think this is gonna get raw and awkward. I'm not even sure he actually wants her back at this point. I'm not sure if he's sure.

a pipe smoking dog posted:There are so many class dynamics going on in the allison-verse it really amazes me that non-british people are able to follow it. The only thing that's amazing is that British people seem to think that they invented the concept of class divisions

wiegieman posted:The unfortunate truth is that class divisions, by and large, define people who aren't willing to exit the life they're in. Does that require a lot of work? Yes, but statistically, most wealthy people in the modern era were not born wealthy. The mayor of London is a child of Muslim immigrants. Also extra lol I didn't even notice this part the first go around. Quite possibly the most sheltered post I've ever seen.

Galvanik posted:I just assumed the other guys felt threatened by Bruno because he is big and hyper-masculine, and it made them feel self conscious. And since according to Amy he doesn't speak much, the image that formed in my head for the character was that of a large physically intimidating dude who's not very social. It's less "don't like him because of his working class job" and more "aren't comfortable around him because, on some level, they know that he lives in a very different world than they do".

feetnotes posted:I liked Jack and Linton when they were treated sympathetically it's been a long time since they showed up as anything other than gigantic idiots. To be honest it gets increasingly difficult to stomach any of the characters in this comic as time goes on. Almost everyone has become more and more intolerable over the last few cases.
