Paranoid, apparently.

--- Quote from: DSL on 09 Nov 2011, 10:22 ---Eh, I think most of us have regarded the structure of the word balloons as more of a suggestion when it comes to captioning.

That's what I was hoping for, but I've noticed most people seem to base the structure of the captions solely on the balloons. Still, I'll definitely keep that one in mind.
Maybe it's time for a poll in the caption game thread...

... Although, I tend to award bonus points for appropriateness to a caption that does fit the panel's word balloons. It's certainly an extra creative challenge to make a new caption fit and the result, in my mind, is "better."
That's not to say I'd pass up a supremely funny or appropriate-in-context caption just because of where the bubbles are. Some of the captions for the Angus-Faye bedroom scene, especially the one that painted the fourth wall about the placement of the modesty balloon, were examples of that.
Kugai:
I suddenly have tennis Whiplash after that comic.
Is it cold in here?:
Somewhere back in the mists of vague memory, Jeph may have said that he found pure dialogue to be too static. This strip proves that it can really work well.
SomeCanadianWeirdo:
Hannelore, sweetheart, there's a simpler solution to your dilemma than magnets: strapless bra. Of course you could still be in true '80s style by having a bra strap showing, or one "strap" of a tank top showing if you want to wear a regular bra and not have the strap itself showing.
