Aside from that, I've never really liked Angus that much as a character, as he also seems rather boring in general. I am just not that invested in him and don't care to see him in the main cast. ... So far he hasn't done or said anything that particularly endears me to him.  
Well, cheers to them. Hopefully Faye gets to have a healthy relationship.

I've been vaguely annoyed with Angus passing Faye's exam too, but after thinking about his behavior, it's quite close to how mine would appear in the strip, including his treatment of Marigold.  The biggest difference is his stubborn persistence in the face of Faye's resistance. (And no prep school.)

Interesting what one can take from QC.
 :oops:

Of course, that's because they frequently are.  But that's stereotyping...

After reading this I had to check the meaning of "preppy" from urban dictionary. Ouch. Let's just say that I understand a bit better, why many forumites react negatively to him. Admittedly he annoyed Faye early on, but that was also a defensive mechanism on her part. After all, he did make an impression.

Also, while preppies certainly want to distance themselves from yuppies, social climbers and such, hasn't Angus sorta been climbing down the socio-economic ladder after college? Failed actor? Strawman? Ok. It is a world I know nothing about, so cannot judge. Doesn't match the preppy image (still hazy in my mind, but I think I met a few of those during my stay...).

Is it cold in here?:
It looks like there's a core of security in their relationship, judging from the easy joshing in today's strip. This augurs well for their future.

Akima:
Indeed. <--- Classier than posting "This" or "+1"  :angel:
