--- Quote from: Odin on 27 Apr 2011, 11:00 ---Simple nervousness doesn't usually result in talking to yourself out loud (panels 1-4) as you try to psyche yourself up to do something (as opposed to, say, thought bubbles).

Sounds like fairly common outward processor behaviour to me. It's not unreasonable for someone to vocalise something out loud to prevent that sounded better in my head moments. I understand that hearing it out loud helps reduce fear as someone psyches themselves up.

But then you're leaving "simple nervousness" territory and entering "abject fear/terror".

Just because you've never had to rubberduck-debug something doesn't mean it's not a valid process.
MightionNY:
Tai's shirt is all the proof I need to think she's semi-stalking Dora.
When she arrives, the hem is at the level of her crotch. In the panel where she's walking into the truck, it's high enough to show her "coin slot", which would have involved it moving up 2-3 inches or so. Only way I can see that happening is if Tai pulled up her shirt herself.
So, I still think she is stalking Dora, even if Dora's new apartment was around the corner from the college. :-D
SirDudley:
If anything, the fact that the Bianchi siblings are sweating so much shows how much help Faye contributed to moving the couch. Then again, I'm from NYC, so I have no idea how Southern women operate and/or if there is a difference between regions.
Am I the only thinking Sven is off-panel facepalming at the end?

I've debuged computer code, electronic circuts and mechanical systems. And, yes, talking to myself is often part of the process.
Please explain the "rubberduck-" part?
Thanks.

Didn't think of it, but it definitly makes sense!

The main character of Neon Genesis Evangelion is a whiny, spineless teenager with daddy issues named Shinji. His internal conflict tends to get in the way of him piloting his giant robot and saving the world. The T-shirt is in reference to the mass of frustration fans and non-fans alike have experienced in watching the show and having to put up with his shit while a much more interesting conflict around him unfolds.
