Safety Dance posted:Does anybody get this? This is my second time reading it, and I can't make heads or tails of what's going on. Is Vernon McNutt about to get shot? My read is they're threatening him under punishment of death to keep rocking that boat as punishment for rocking a real boat with women and children in it as a joke

My problem with the Pastis comic is the implication that "left vs right" is a petty squabble that somehow doesn't have anything to do with capitalism or class war. As others said, "the left and right have more in common than they think" is a pretty meaningless platitude for the many demographics that the right wouldn't mind seeing dead e: And also I'm sick of Pastis putting out pretty milquetoast political messages and acting like a pariah for it, but the Family Circus bit is funny E again: the comic does make a lot more sense if you replace "left and right" with "democrat and republican" which he probably means somepartsareme fucked around with this message at 19:19 on Jan 25, 2022 |

Powered Descent posted:Chocolate is absolutely bad for dogs. Don't feed it to them on purpose. But it isn't exactly cyanide to them either -- a quick google says that the danger limit is about 0.5 ounces of milk chocolate per pound of dog. Which is kind of a lot, if you think about it. I strongly doubt I've ever come anywhere near that ratio myself, even after trick-or-treating. Still, I suppose even a small dog could probably wolf down an entire pan of brownies a hell of a lot faster than I could. Anyway, all I mean to say here is, as long as Snoopy weighs more than three or four pounds (and he absolutely does), he should be okay. We had a miniature pinscher that, among other exploits, once ate nearly an entire bag of Hershey's kisses including the foils. (I was young enough at the time to not have had any responsibility over the dog so don't blame me.) He was fine and went on to live for about 8 more years to the age of 17.

The new Heart of the City is nice and I didn't get all the criticism the first time it was posted in these threads, thanks for posting it again

As someone who is way more familiar with modern webcomics and cartoons than traditional western comic art, it's really funny to see people treat Heart of the City's art as so odd.

I know this Funky arc is all a dream sequence, but it's so tone deaf to be basically making jokes about how the cancer that this comic has spent decades trying to wring every last drop of melodrama out of could have been prevented

riderchop posted:Rae The Doe, which you can support by pledging to the author's Patreon Before I got my cpap, I did an at-home sleep study. I had to have a canella in my nose , wear a strap around my head and have a little machine around my neck and pads on my chest, if I recall correctly. It was literally the worst night of sleep of my life. When I went back into the clinic and told them that cause I worried the results might not be accurate, they basically laughed at me and said that's normal.

Huxley posted:Oh hey, I have one of these coming up. If you're not already a back sleeper try to get used to doing it beforehand. It would have probably helped me a lot. e: Actually if you're getting a sleep study for a CPAP that's probably a horrible idea.

I feel like Everett True still beating people up for not buying victory bonds is like the 1910's version of 2021 Funky Winkerbean strips about the pandemic being over.

Batiuk is definitely about to do a racial prejudice arc with the third and fourth black characters I've ever seen in his work, who were both seemingly introduced about a week ago

Did his ICE arc end with them calling Bill Clinton to stop the deportation, and then sitting down for laughs and pizza with the ICE agents, or did I hallucinate that

gleebster posted:Well, both characters have been in the strip for 6 or 7 years. It's just that Batiuk finally gave a name (Malcolm) to the middle-aged looking male teenager I thought there might be a possibility this was the case, I just couldnt remember seeing them in the like 3 years I've been reading this thread
