I suggest that Faye get back at Sven by hooking up with Wil Wheaton. That would be awesome.

No, I saw Mr. Wheaton at PCC a few weeks ago, and he has a full beard, not a Flanders 'stach.

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.

Maybe you intended for both parties to be at fault, but what comes across repeatedly is that the male characters have a tendency to apologize for the emotional crises manufactured by the girls. The female characters tend to overreact comically to what they perceive (through the foggy lens of their crippling neuroses and immature and unrealistic expectations) as their lovers' betrayals, slights and dishonesty. In fact, the offenses are usually nonexistent to the mind of a healthy person, leaving the men, including many male readers like myself, to sort of scratch their heads, saying "WTF?" It's nice to think that in real life relationships the two sides of the story always balance out to neatly apportion blame equally,(or at all) but the truth is some people torpedo themselves regularly with their own craziness, and the rest of us have to deal with it.
Not that there's anything wrong with that in a comic, but that's my take on it.
Frankly, I think it would be refreshing to see Faye with Pintsize, since he truly is amoral and has no sense of the consequences of his actions, and therefore wouldn't dance on her strings. "Apology? I don't understand the term." Not to mention that it would be very easy to abuse him, since he's the most emotionally grounded and resilient of all the characters and his body is made of plastic - modular, too. You can literally pop his little head off to punish him. The more I think about it, the more I like it.
Faye + Pintsize! Yay! :-D
