They finally hit my retail pet peeve. loving you over in your schedule and then belly aching when you ask for any accommodation. As if what they are doing is fine, but when you do it, you are a jerk.

I got out like two weeks ago and on the very same day I got the offer from the corporate section, my immediate boss quit via text, so the tiny department was down at that point like 2/5 of its labor and the entirety of its management staff. Never before have I identified with :yikes:

so strongly.

I don't think it's a good thing!

Hell, the ostensible protagonists are the people who make the job even worse than it has to be, and also because Gil was Feuti's better strip.

On the one hand, yes, Pru should have been a bit more honest when Les called it a date after showering her with gifts. On the other hand, it's more than a little weird to call someone your girlfriend after one not-really date.

Most of these characters are like 18 and still dumb as heck

You'd probably hate my ideal world where everyone gets re tested every ten years or so then

So would I when my turn came around buuuuut eh

On the flip side, you'd be less likely to die from a grandpa who mixed up the gas pedal & brakes.

Too bad old people vote, and they're the ones mandatory retesting would piss off the most.

Oh, I I honestly think it's a good idea for public safety (even if it would annoy everyone, including me when my turn came around). Hell, it would probably show up on Ballard Street.

God help me but I laughed like an idiot at this wolf shouting OW OW OW OW OW OW

Actually I'd like to ask him why his butt is perfectly flat. Look at that thing. Don't tell me what I want to do, Ballard Street!

What the gently caress, Newspaper Spider-Man? He tried to murder you, you have witnesses, you can bring down New York's organized crime network right now just by picking up a goddamn phone!

So you're saying that Spider-Man is a menace?

This is one of those panels that you can insert into anything at random, isn't it :allears:

I have questions, too. Is he pretending to be Indiana Jones, but didn't coil up his whip? Or is he some sort of... hose samurai? These kinds of questions are never answered on Ballard Street.

I think Nancy is exceptional because the difference in quality is just so egregious. It's an entirely different (lovely) comic strip wearing Nancy's skin.

A thought just struck me that the decline of the Simpsons is the same thing that happens to comic strips that never die. Can't think of another prime time tv show like that off the top of my head.

Yeah, but it's really striking on strips like this. Nancy and Sluggo carrying around a collections can/plate/whatever is something that could just as easily be happening modern Nancy, but there it would be "oh, look at those sweet godly children worried about the less fortunate" instead of Sluggo's absurd degree of cynicism in using it to clear a path.

Sometimes you can play "fetish or not?" But other times, it's really obvious. Ballard Street.

I'm missing something here- does the joke have something to do with the glass table or the lady's miserable face?

A little of both. If you look, she's also kicking/nudging her husband under the table as well as glaring at him, so he knows she does not want him to stay.

Spider-man you don't need to mug the janitor and steal his clothes, you can just take off your suit.
