I’ll upvote you just so I can get an indictment from the Feds. All the cool kids are getting on Trumps enemies list.

Well … < vaguely gesturing around > have you seen, ya know, everything lately?

Jeez man ya killed me already. You don’t need to keep twisting the knife.

I solved purple only by eliminating everything else. I still don’t get it, but I might just be dumb.

Sigourney Weaver has that effect on people. I knows because I’m people.

I am gullible I guess.

Thanks! This joke has so many layers to unpeel.

I was thinking the same thing. It’s the window frame I think, it’s like strip inside the strip.

Actually I’m not sure. Usually a beat panel is the second to last with no action in it at all. But in this one both middle panels have an action (the car going by and then Calvin & Hobbs running) but the framing with action outside the window isolates us just the right amount to still feel like a beat is being taken between the action of the car disaster and moms realisation.
I imagine if I was drawing this I’d have had the car and Calvin both go by in the second panel and the third just being mom thinking. But Watterson such a great artist he can create that feeling of a moment of stillness without it really being there.

 

I know I could Google it but I reckon y’all would have better and funnier takes.

 

Hey Lemmings,
I’ve just finished up the second of John Scalzi’s Lock-In novels and I’m looking for some recommendations for some new books in the same vein. I’ve enjoyed a bunch of sci-fi mysteries like The Murderbot series, the I Robot novels, even Niven’s ARM stories. So throw me some more like that if you can.

 

Seriously LA Theater people I am disappointed. It would make for an amazing viral video.

 

Ok, Lemmy, let's another play a game!

And I honestly think this one’s more important.

Post how many languages in which you can say Please and Thank You, including your native language. If you can, please provide which languages and how to phonetically say them so the rest of us can learn!

I spent a fair amount of bopping around Europe in the early Aughts and as a native English speaker, I found everyone appreciating my bad mangled attempts at politeness.
