Nicely done! I will not be posting 1940’s Nancy or Pluggers. If anyone wants to take them up, go for it!

I haven't been in these threads for the past few years but here's something interesting I found (also looked the name of this up in SA's search just to check to see if it got posted before and it seemingly hasn't in these threads): The Fantastic Funnies, a tv special from 1980 (produced by the people who made the Peanuts specials) going over various popular comic strips of the time, including the very first animated appearance of Garfield; features a bunch of comics you probably wouldn't have heard of if it weren't for these threads.

Going back to the old FOOB threads, I totally forgot that the strips were animated with blinking eyes. That first thread really picked up on a classic with the firefighter strip

Kevin & Kell really is a hellworld, isn't it? I tended to skip past it. Now I can't look away.

The overly generic use of "my neighbor" and "our neighbor" in both of these strips bug me for some reason. Nobody talks like this!

Another work sketch of the thread's favourite leg of ham/sociopath, but I worked it up into a 'real' drawing this time.

Also I just peeked at today's Sunday strip and ohhhhhhh boy.

It kicked off a day of "I remember that strip" discussion; a few "It's fine" posts, a lot of "Ugh what was the deal with her and jalapenos" talk, but mostly "I hate that baby." After seeing

I took up the challenge (And promised to quote the post when the turn came.) We're all trapped in this Hell of our own making together, I'm just doing my part.

At least 50% of hanging out in this thread is being involved in the shared suffering.

Anyone else remember those Weepull things that you could win as a prize for selling x amount of merchandise? Maybe that was just my school district, but the stuff was pretty cheap: a cotton ball with googly eyes glued onto them.

I do now! I would not have ever remembered those things unless someone else had mentioned them.
