Of course I just realized the author's name in this terrible and interminable Rex Morgan storyline is an anagram of Dav Pilkey, the guy who does Captain Underpants and Dogman and other goofy children's books

Hostile V posted:I had a thing I wanted to say about Holbrook and realized it was too long and I guess it boils down to, it sucks that he thinks this was Good Enough to use as a jumping off metaphor point for the rest of the comic where Angelique is technically some kind of gender traitor who doesn't "commit" like Bruno does to it (she uses pheromones only, really) and wants to kill everyone she used to be in order to feed the capitalist beast. Also the fact that, like, this metaphor really doesn't map well because it feels way more transgenic than transgender because so far in K&K diets don't feel culturally gendered, but species have X Does Y Thing baked into them? I hate his metaphors and lack thereof. Don't forget that later on they terrorize Angelique by putting her in a situation where she's detransitioned and this is presented as a good and heroic thing to do. EDIT: I actually found the storyline and they forcibly detransition her and then pretend to be predators out to eat her until a real predator breaks in and legit attempts to eat her. All to "teach her a lesson". Calaveron fucked around with this message at 17:33 on Aug 22, 2021 |

So like, if I were a person dating another person who has a history of being a volatile alcoholic with incredibly poor decision making skills and said person started threatening my pet I would just cut my losses and dump the stupid dangerous idiot before he legitimately wrung my cherished animal's neck.

Like remember when he drunkenly paraded Estelle in front of his ex that he dumped for a hotter girl that was very obviously running a scam on him and all the doormat did was tell him to please not do that again? Why are we supposed to like Wilbur?

Powered Descent posted:The Family Circus Stuff like this always baffles me, schools doing things that make no sense like this. If a school lets off early because of an emergency does little Billy just show up unannounced at the front door? Aren't calls made and texts sent and busses notified? It's like how in a lot of movies and TV shows and comic strips kids are getting the big summer project. What school does that? Nobody wants to deal with a project that takes all summer. Or when summer ends they go back to the same classroom with the same teacher. Presumably these kids moved up on to the next grade? Did schools really work this way when these boomer rear end writers were kids? Calaveron fucked around with this message at 16:24 on Sep 16, 2021 |

Like the problem in Mary Worth isn't that Wilbur doesn't know how to take care of the dog. The problem is that Wilbur's a volatile alcoholic who has threatened to throttle an innocent animal if he doesn't get his way. How did the writer forget this?

Sally Forth sure does get a lot of mileage out of claiming the Forths are wacky and off kilter but doesn't actually bother showing them do anything wacky or off kilter except having the neighbors say the Forths sure are wacky and off kilter.

So Luann brings an unannounced, uninvited, unapproved guest armed with a bow and arrow to a kindergarten class and thinks that she just gets to walk out with no repercussions? I mean I don't think arrests are gonna be made but she should at least talk to the squad car that no doubt would be called.

I don't understand what the Mary Worth writer is going for here. Here we have the story of this oaf that started with him threatening to kill his girlfriend's pet. Then the girlfriend is like we need to take a small break here and he interprets this as her breaking up with him which she does not deny. Then Wilbur goes to a pet store to get a dog to try to get back (?????) at his ex girlfriend and also to flirt with the attendant and of course he doesn't know poo poo about dogs and there's a couple of days of him screwing up with his pooch. Then he meets this girl and they get off on a rocky start and a disastrous date because of course he's not over Estelle but she sees them together and actually gets jealous over it. Afterwards he goes to see Estelle to maybe patch things up but nothing doing because of course things don't work that way when you're an explosive moron with zero impulse control. Now when he finally goes to talk to that old biddy for the meddling denouement, the focus is on Wilbur being frustrated that his dog just doesn't seem to like him instead of any of the other aspects of his disastrous life. This storyline hasn't been boring at all because seeing Wilbur's life crumble in slow motion is very fun, but it feels like there's too many pots on this stove and things need to focus a little bit more.

Mary Worth has been an absolute roller coaster. How will this play out? Will Wilbur make an absolute rear end out of himself? Will Estelle realize she misses him too much? Will they exchange polite greetings and let each other move on? Edge of my seat here.

See, Mary Worth would've been a million times more satisfying if Estelle had sang any other song as a sign that she wasn't playing into Wilbur's stupid little game and she wasn't even bothering to think about him.

You're loving up Mary Worth writer. You're loving up deep. You've proven too well Wilbur is an unlovable loser. The only way you can salvage this is if you make it text that Estelle is also a deeply moronic person who also makes the stupidest decisions ever by getting together again with this oaf.
