lol
Pen seemed to have to most normal sigh moment of all of them.

i dont think faye & marten are thinking of eachother either. i think they're both just reflecting on their own situations; like you said.
i also think for faye she's confused because i think deep down she wants a serious reationship, but she's afraid of messing it up... faye has alot to sigh about lol.

--- Quote from: Exar_Kun on 28 Jan 2009, 16:29 ---Any guy with a girlfriend with issues knows... said girlfriend will not ever let you forget about her issues. It will always be something the guy has to work around. In my case, I tried helping my (ex)girl with her issues and she only pushed me further away. Dealing with that kind of stuff day in and day out takes its toll, I can tell you from experience. Dora is crazy insecure about Marten. She thinks that Marten will tell her everything, which is kinda Marten's fault also. I mean, just a few strips ago, Marten told her about seeing Hanelore's breast. Only Marten could have confessed that, and actually feel guilty about it at the same time. Dora expects that kind of behavior from Marten all the time, and when she doesn't see it, she freaks out. Also, Dora is still mad at Marten despite the clear evidence that he turned that girl down. It doesn't get any more irrational than that.

Aside from the fact that insecurity is hardly a condition monopolized by women, if you actually think Dora's problem represents the height of relationship irrationality, I will tell you from personal experience (at both ends of such) that you've only seen the foothills.

I predicted this a month or two ago, and I still think it may be in the works.
--- Quote from: Wyr on 28 Jan 2009, 23:13 ---So, that about does it for all those shippers crossing their fingers for a Hanners/Pintsize. She just doesn't like the technophile.
--- End quote ---
Oh, god, another ship to torpedo. Besides, Pintsize isn't Hanners' lover—he's her dealer. THough I guess he could parley that into a relationship and then turn Hanners out.

Sorry. Had to recover from hysterical laughter at the mental image of Hannelore turning tricks. (Let's party, John. Wait--is that clean? When did you last bathe? What kind of soap did you use?)
--- Quote from: Mark7 on 29 Jan 2009, 03:18 ---Do all Americans sleep on tiny flat pillows?
--- End quote ---
Well, they aren't flat when I buy them. But then something comes and eats two-thirds of the stuffing while I'm not looking. Except for my buckwheat pillow—I think buckwheat must give the Kissenfüllungesser indigestion.

I think I just developed a crush on you, Raoullefere, and that disturbs me. This cool/wise/Germanic thing is dangerously attractive. Watch it!
But, yeah, it's true. 15 years now, working on 16 years, with my beloved, and we BOTH occasionally haul up ancient history or insecurity or something and have a fight. BUT -- when you spend 2 hours with a fight, and days and days being pretty damned happy with each other, it's not that hard to let the bad stuff go, because there's so LITTLE of it comparatively. Of course, for a fair number of folks, their expectations are for absolute perfection (which usually translates to getting everything their own way) or they tend to focus on the bad bits and let them eclipse the good stuff. That's all perspective.
Relationships, they be complicated things. And doesn't Marten say often how happy he is with Dora? So, ok, there are occasional issues. It is NOT constant (I just toured the archives looking). Again, perspective.
As for the pillows, I imagine they aren't very interesting to draw. Jeph tends to make them tiny whenever they show up. Not Representative of Reality because...well...it's a comic!
BladeDancer:
Ah how I missed the forums. I lost them when the site got it's new skin, and the link seems to have disappeared. Anyone know what's up? I'm curious because you all seem like you never left. (I found them again after Jeph mentioned them in the comment of comic 1324, and I searched the page source for 'forum' and copy pasted the link.)
deuxmind:
yeah i kind of got really confused when i couldn't find the link either. it keeps friggin disappearing. :?
NightOfTheLepus:
i agree with the earlier comment regarding Penelope - - i didn't really care one way or the other about that storyline, but her panel in this strip was emotive enough to make me actually care about the character... well done indeed.
