NotAwesomeAnymore:
What if Tai is actually his daughter? The math checks out!
O8h7w:
Yes, it does, if we guess Jim is at least 40 years old - but I don't. I'm guessing 35.
Dora should be 28 or 29, IIRC, and I think she wouldn't hook up with someone as much as a year older than herself - you know, because they would be as old as her brother...
EDIT: In strip 144 she's 26, and that is supposedly not more than two years ago. So she should be 27 or 28.

I fail to see your point O.o

She is... but then she is also a deeply amoral and selfish person. Were I in Marten's position I would see her as a fun co-worker, but not as any kind of potential friend. Since I'm a naturally cautious person, after getting to know her I would do everything possible to prevent her meeting any of my friends. She is drama waiting to happen.
I don't exactly dislike Tai, but I wouldn't be hugely enthusiastic about her being around anyone I cared about. Certainly not if she was likely to find them attractive, and even more so if that person was in any way emotionally vulnerable.
Also: This comic needs more Marigold. The comic is back to being decent again, has been for a while actually... but Marigold is essential. Pretty much the main character I look forward to reading about.

Good to know I'm not the only one who thinks like that. Maybe not completely on my level, but recognizes that there are some of us that just don't feel comfortable with the age gaps. While some say love knows no numbers... I say "Ugh". But of course, that's just me. I don't treat older men like they're total creepers when they hit on me, unless they're obviously being a creeper. I take it as a compliment, but the idea of even entertaining the thought of dating an older man? Just no.
I come from a family where my mom is 15 years older than my brother, my brother is 7 years older than me, my dad outright refuses to set foot in a strip club or anything of the sort "because they're the same age as my daughter." I'm honestly repulsed by the "cougar" fad, and same goes for men with way younger women. I never would date a guy my brothers age either. This is just my own personal preference though.
I know there may be some that don't agree with me, I'm not looking to argue over the matter. It's all in personal preference. =P
Where I was getting at is, maybe, just maybe, Dora has similar feelings on the matter. It's never been discussed, but the expressions on her face whenever Jim comes around speaks for the lack of words. I'm reading her expressions as "...this is very uncomfortable." but I could be wrong.
*Edit- 2 new posts separating the post I was responding to. Trying to not cause confusion.
