How Long Has Dora Been Pregnant?
bicostp:
Ah yes, the miscarriage arc. It was just his idealized view of the actual miscarriage he and an ex-girlfriend went through in a past relationship. In his mind, it must have been the perfect excuse to get out of a relationship that bored him. Clearly, the miscarriage was much harder on the woman than the man.

There's concrete evidence of his shoplifting; it was reported in the West Warwick Beacon a few days after it happened. The whole "pictures to a 16 year old" mess is more based on anecdotal evidence, but his attempt to cover it up and silence any talk about it doesn't really help disprove it. (There is substantial evidence regarding the "ban everybody and delete the forum" debacle. Some screenshots are very NSFW, proceed with caution.) His vandalizing Wikipedia as Thrindel is pretty obvious; that account watched the CAD article like a hawk and "fixed" any changes he wouldn't approve of very quickly. (I've heard stories of people who added criticism to the CAD Wikipedia page having their IPs banned from the forums, but those aren't verifiable unless you've got access to their ban list.) There are a few different stories about him hiding in the back of his booth letting the line back up, so it's likely to be true. The "take out the trash" story is probably the least verifiable, since only a couple people were there and one of them won't talk about it.

And I personally was there for the "ban everyone and delete the forum" debacle.
I made it through the first round of bans, but when my account was seen posting on the new RoM, I got banned, IIRC.
The reasonable, adult way to take care of such a situation: Ban the user that actually posted that, delete it, and move on with life. If people keep pestering you, deny it.
The childish way to take care of a situation that confirms everyone's fears: Pull a Buckley.

RE: the official topic:
Dora cannot possibly be pregnant ans she was once, and (short of technology we haven't see yet) must still be, a man.
Please note that Raven made no attempt to deny this claim, nor did she seem confused by it, therefore she must have been around for the whole thing. What has in fact been going on is that Dora (née Donald) has been quietly saving up for a new hormone regimen and the effects have just recently started to kick in.
Indeed, if one is careful, you can distort this semi-baseless factoid so that it seems either consequential or precedent of nearly any particular of the strip you like. Such as Dora being bisexual. Or Faye not totally freaking out at the idea of being in bed with 'her' and so on...

People always mention the miscarriage, but they never mention the fat-suit girl. I find that far more offensive. The miscarriage thing, he's just stupid and doesn't realize that he can't do a serious issue in a zany comedy (if it can be called a 'comedy'). It was tactless and irreverent, but it didn't show acceptance for disgusting behaviour like fat-suit girl did.
If you don't know it, let me sum the story up. I don't remember any names, but it's not that important. So the fat guy gets somehow set up on a blind date... I think it was the sentient x-box thing that did it. He immediately realizes that he didn't like her because she is a fatty (just like him, of course. For the record, I use such a distasteful term to put it in character perspective; I'd never refer to someone as such). He tries to lie to get out of said date. Then he goes on the date, barely holding in his dinner, even though he'd find her interesting if she was so uggo. He takes her home, but is desperately trying to leave. He's been a total hypocrite and a genuinely shitty person. Then SURPRISE! She's not a fatty, she's a hotty! She was lying about her weight, without concern for the concept of starting things off by deception or his feelings. So of course the fat guy wants her now. So what is the reward for a guy that is a completely worthless pile of shit? He gets a hot girl who wants him of course! She's 'sooo impressed' that he was nice (though he wasn't).
What lesson did we learn today? If you judge a person by looks, especially in a way you fail at, you will get into a relationship with someone that you are attracted to!
Why am I the only person to remember this?

Also, Dora can't be pregnant, she's been replaced by a mechanical version.
