Oh come on, now, if Marten had punched back he'd be dead! :mrgreen:

--- Quote from: Tiogyr on 13 Jul 2011, 12:40 ---Comic #1522 "Was this actually funny, or in bad taste?", with a link and introduction paragraph by whoever the OP is giving their point of view, for example? Or would it be more like "Comic #1522" full stop and any and all takes/discussion going on within that thread?

If a thread is useful, it will write itself (as it were). I'm not going to provide a template.

I wasn't asking you to write it or provide a template so much as asking if people should keep all discussion of a certain comic within that thread or if two completely different conversations could go on in different threads that start by referencing the same comic.

Not dead, in hospital! And the comic wouldn't have gained a readership like this one. Beating a woman, even if she deserves it (that sounds meaner than it should. my list of grounds if someone deserves a beating is short,gender-neutral... and Babylonian), is a no-go.
Thinking of that, how does the failed attempt to stop Vespa Venger with a STOP sign to the forehad work out? Is it ok, as long they don't hit her?
concerning strip #1522, you remeber it was a return for slaping her ass in that bar (#1521)?
... "Dad Two: Dad Harder" is a fine addition to that family, fits right into it.
Speaking of Fayes ass. It must be a very interesting sight, if so many pinch, slap and grap it in the comic (still don't know how many months have passed since #1).

Marten wouldn't beat a women, he is too nice for that. The only time he really got angry in front of Faye was when Dora thought that the two of them were doing something devious when they were both in their underpants on the couch in 1743. Plus, even if she did need a bit of an attitude adjustment at some times, after strip 500 everyone realized why she was so harsh all of the time.
Well Jeph said the about page "I don't keep an exact count (because it doesn't matter) but I estimate that as of strip #1400 it will have been greater than six months and less than two years. The pace is really slow. Sorry!" That still leaves about 568 strips left, and Marten mentioned the breakup happened weeks ago a few times, so estimate a 3 year span max.
Is it cold in here?:
--- Quote from: Near Lurker on 13 Jul 2011, 07:51 ---Okay, remember that "shouldn't be dating anyone" thing? Is there a reason it'll be different with Tai that doesn't contain some permutation of "it'lll be hot"?
--- End quote ---
Oh, she definitely shouldn't. If she realizes that, it will avoid much drama and awkward humor, and emotional harm to the imaginary people.
That doesn't mean it won't happen.
EDIT: Dora was 26 when the comic started, she's a year younger than Sven, who told the Pugnacious Peach recently that he's 28. Dora's probably not exactly 12 months younger than Sven, and we don't know how far either of them was into their current age, so there's a lot of wiggle room.
SirDudley:
In other news, are we doing only one poll this week? Or is the next one coming on Friday?
