Dr. ROFLPWN:
I want to thank Jeph for making a week of nice maternal shenanigans and general silliness while my other favorite comic, Homestuck, has been riding a tide of relentless fucked-up horror.
Random Wanderer:
Really, woman? She says three sentences, and you can already tell enough about her personality to blurt out something like that? I thought Mrs. Reed was smarter than this.

It also sounds to me like the way you think a child should interact with their parents and the way I think a child should interact with their parents are so different that it is like we are from two different planets, and I will drop the matter because I don't see this going in a constructive direction.

I actually get that a surprising amount. It might have to do with my mother having been trained as a social worker before she had kids. Or it just might be a coincidence of the way she raised me.
--- Quote ---I didn't ever say that that was--what? I don't even know where you're getting that. What I said was that sometimes parents will embarrass you, and I implied that this was sort of a fact of life, and that maybe what Veronica did, by her standards, was pretty normal parental behavior. Again, though, we appear to have really different standards!

Sorry, that was more responding to... somnus? Somnolus? Something eternus. Has a monkey as his picture.
Is it Cold In Here, sure, it has internal logic. I was saying that my objections didn't apply to the comic, that's all.

--- End quote ---
She's doing it in a way that you can tell she's really making an effort and that it's not normal for her. Her "shake" hand is barely outstretched, and her other hand is curving inward, suggesting a touch of fear or apprehension.
Or I might be reading too much into it. Coin toss.

I'm not going to infer anything more than that for the sake of this post being taken out of context. :-P

I suddenly saw an image in my head of Hannelore getting an order for a drink at COD and her hair going back to fluffy-curly all at once as the order was given.
