I guess no one cares that he misspelled September in the thread title.

You obviously do, since you've posted twice to draw it to our attention. :laugh:
I don't think it can be fixed, so why sweat it? All life is imperfect y'know.

20 seconds of nose scrunching, mouth open, laughing-through-nose set aside, that's a funny ass memory. xD
I've personally noted that the QC characters in general seem bulkier/wider. Just 200 strips ago everyone was skinny. You'll especially notice the difference with Marigold and Faye.
It's also good to see the bearmonster shirt being brought back.

Let he who is without typo throw the first bottle of white-out(?)...or something.

--- Quote from: danman on 14 Sep 2009, 16:55 ---This is strange - all the people again swearing at Angus while he is intelligent funny does not give up easily and is generally OK. Sven on the other side is exactly the kind of skillless rich bastard who can effortlessly charm women and at whom i would probably have a hard time not to spit if i met him, yet if he shows the smallest ammount of non wire-insulation-spine he is instantly adored even by some of his opponents.
WTF??

Interesting slant - all Sven's negatives, all Angus' positives.
Both Sven and Angus are intelligent and funny. "Does not give up easily" can be a positive or negative trait. In this case it's "does not give up easily even when the girl repeatedly told you she wasn't interested". How is Sven skill-less? Sven's abiding fault is having had the world too easy, and not caring enough about any female in particular to say no to the next bit of ass which came along. For which habit he's been justly served. Sven is interesting because he made a journey - I wouldn't have liked it at all if Faye became his doormat. I like that he's suffered a slap in the face from the cold wet towel of regret. I'd _prefer_ a positive ending, but the story doesn't need Sven and Faye together for their relationship to have caused positive developments to both parties, and for Sven to be a better, likeable person as a result.
I dislike Angus for how he was introduced. "Hi - I come to this coffee shop because I get off on your insults. No, I mean, really get off. I'm practically coming in my pants here."
Yeah, an exaggeration, but that appeared to be what was being implied, and it slimed him over with such a layer of ick that his current portrayal does nothing to wash him clean. As for his current portrayal: well, he's kind of boring. Now that everyone appears to have forgotten his masochistic early appearances, he doesn't appear to have any faults, any abiding interests, anything ... I give him props for being nice to Marigold, but at the same time, he's such a friend to Marigold that it takes Faye, Hanners, Dora etc to actually get Marigold out and socialising.
Marigold is way more interesting.
