Anyone else not digging purple-haired Dora?
KOODustin:
I liked her in all black, personally. Then again, women with crazy unnatural hair colors are generally not my cup of tea.

The best, silliest theories are all built on a coincidences. Is that a coincidence? Or a pair o' docs?

Post hoc, ergo propter hoc.
Yup, Dora dyes her hair purple then breaks up with Marten. That must be the reason. No other possible explanation. If you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
William of Occam* is spinning in his grave!
*Most parsimonious, not simplest
Is it cold in here?:
If I may be indulged in a silly theory some more, consider that everyone who has dyed her hair purple has broken up with Marten, and since the strip began nobody who hasn't dyed her hair purple has ever broken up with Marten (Faye and Sara were never together with him).
Post hoc egro propter hoc meets universal generalization from a single data point.
akronnick:
Your sample size lacks statistical significance.
