#1458: Yay for my country?
DA_IMP:
Just wanted to make random comments:
1) I had a pretty good laugh at Faye's line in the last panel. It might've been a bit bigger than normal 'cos I laugh more intensely when I'm stressed sometimes. A relief mechanism I suppose.
2) That was before I got to read the rest, so Faye's line worked as the punchline for me in a sense.
3) "Argentinean" is a correct demonym for my country's people (and stuff) according to Wikipedia. "Argentinian" is the most common usage in my (above-average) experience in dealing with the rest of the world. "Argentine" is a less common one, and I actually never heard "Argentinean" before, I believe. I suppose it works? In any case, do demonyms go with capitals? I never remember that one grammar rule (no worries, no spelling troll/nazi here).
4) Part of my stress is because our economy is beinf f***ed up the *ss again, and it's making my current finances a real pain. They're devaluating our curency more and more and *also* legally limiting our right to exchange our local currency for safer ones (dollars, euros). It feels like a quite literal cage, what they're doing.
5) I still appreciate the joke in Hannelore's line and find it funny. Trust me, living in this country gives you a great many chances in developing your sense of humor. I strongly believe we have some of the best sense of humor in the world. It's a survival mechanism, in keeping with the thoughts of #1.
6) Yay for my country being mentioned in one my top favorite websites of all time. For statistical reference, consider I've been a quite frequent citizen of the interwebs for like 12 years now.
7) Kindly tell Hannelore her mother is soooo dead.
8 ) To our awesome author: I'll assume this means you actually know something about Argentina? Kuddos for the int'l knowledge.
Surgoshan:
How does one carry a zero?
Arancaytar:
That was going to be my question. Carrying supposedly only happens when there's a non-zero digit to be carried.
BeoPuppy:
Surreal comic = surreal math.
