Oh, Sven ...
Mr. Skawronska:

Grrrrr. Faye deserves to have her karmic debt collected on like a bad check over, and over, and over.
Grrrr.

Literally every single argument in the comic this far has found both parties at fault (if not equally so). And yet in every instance people INISIST upon declaring one side the guilty one.

Not only is it funny, it is HYSTERICALLY funny. As I creep closer and closer to my crone years, I find myself laughing a lot about such things. Sure, there are situations and events where one person suffers through no particular action, choice, or fault of his/her own, and you can make a list. On the other hand, if investigated, most situations yield a little 'fault' -- or, to use the term I prefer, responsibility -- that can be shared out all around.
The comic is a good illustration of this. It's one of the reasons I keep reading it and come here to discuss it.
While throwing blame and laying faults on one side to absolve the other may give some a warm glow of self righteousness, in the end it's stunting and doesn't improve the decision making apparatus. Those who tend in that direction repeat themselves a lot, since they have no responsibility in what happens to them and thus no need to change. In fact, some say repeating the same poor choices expecting a different outcome is insanity. Mistakes are the best way found yet to learn. If you keep making the same mistakes, you aren't paying attention.
And that, ladies, gentlemen, and others, is just damn funny.

I was going to start an ask Sven thread, but this will do.
Hi Sven
Great comic. Do you mind if I axe U a question?
Cool.
How long after you start having... uh, liking someone new should you tell your old girlfriend who left her husband for you that you just want to be friends? srsly. I'm not even kidding. Help me feel alright about this.
idkrash.
For the good times.

That quote was taken out of context here- immediately after it says "I visit the sins of the fathers to the third and fourth generation" it says "I visit love upon those who obey me to a thousand generations." It was meant to illustrate the fact that God's love outweighs God's wrath.
