Every time I watch the stream of a comic with Faye in it, I'm struck by how different she looks before Jeph draws her glasses on her. It's especially noticeable, I think, in the first panel of 2066. Before the glasses, she's little-girl happy to see Angus. Then those Velma Dinkley frames with their industrial-strength earpieces go on and suddenly, half her face is unreadable. I think Faye's glasses might be a character in their own right.

Don't worry about it, quote tunnels are fun! The important thing is to bring a flashlight so you can explore deeper inside.

"Once Zhuangzi dreamt he was a butterfly, a butterfly flitting and fluttering around, happy with himself and doing as he pleased. He didn't know he was Zhuangzi. Suddenly he woke up and there he was, solid and unmistakable Zhuangzi. But he didn't know if he was Zhuangzi who had dreamt he was a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming he was Zhuangzi."
Does mopey cap-guy dream he is a successful web-cartoonist, or Jeph dream he is a mopey cap-guy? I wonder more who nerd-pen-pocket-girl is. Another cartoonist, perhaps? The first time I glanced at cap-guy's tattoo, I read it as "Fear is the WMD". Incidentally Pendrake, it is not the Litany Of Fear, but the Litany Against Fear. How do forum-members pronounce "Bene Gesserit", BTW? I always read it as Benn-eh Gezzerit (with a hard G as in golf or gun, and the double-S "buzzed" like the first double-S in possession), but Wikipedia tells me I have been doing it wrong.
Angus is back with a zing! And yes, "fallen like a ton of bricks" I think he has.

For me the same thing happens with Marigold, though not quite to the same magnitude as with Faye.

I'm always very careful about quoting someone who called for the death of everyone who venerated a (certain) philosopher without fully understanding his doctrine.
