Eh, I figure I bat about .300 on getting pop culture references when you throw the gaming stuff in. I've long accepted that there's a whole bunch of jokes and references I'm not going to get.

I can't even see why you are cringing over anything she said in that one.
Because after that nice and sweet, touching moment, Hanners basically said, "Marten, you suck at this." Normal people just do not do that after being so heartfelt and kind.

what yes they do I would totally do that to my friends.

(not that I'm making any claim to be normal)
Well, at least you admit it... I'd say welcome to the crazy club, but I get the feeling that you're one of my CEOs, so I'll salute you instead.

Tomorrow is most likely going to involve Hanners, Momo, Marigold and holoponies (with maybe an e-mail from Francis for the "Dawww" factor). Anyone else seeing it?

The possibility of Butts disease infecting one of the most powerful AI's in existence is terrifying.

That's no space station, it's a giant moon.

Nah. Knowing Pintsize, he'd hit Station up to try and lasergraph a giant wang across an entire continent.

PS: I don't think 'lasergraph' is an actual word (made to mean using a laser to etch his images), but it sounds cool to me so I'll stick with it.

Yeah, right! I contracted Bd from my father in the 1940s -- he introduced me to the crepitation contest record -- and my stepfather in the 50s. He had a glossy of a figure skater moving backward toward the camera, skirt blowing upward, in his shop.

My doctor came into the room and said, "You have Butts Disease." Like he was telling me to go to the grocery store. That's it. Quit the house, pack up the job, sell the kids, move to Uranus, sit on the couch and listen to "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk." That's when I found the Hellman's Mayo Clinic. They tailor their treatment to you, the (w)hole person. They use all kinds of mayo: Regular, Lite, Chipotle ... they even use Miracle Whip in their placebo studies.

There no longer needs to be a stigma attached to Butts Disease. It tuchus a long time, but society has finally learned to turn the other cheek.

You, too, can learn to live with Butts Disease.

Ask your doctor if QC is right for you.

If he or she says no, get another doctor.

Well, I had to check: "YourANus" is the Latin pronunciation. URine-us is the pronunciation preferred by astronomers. And in the site I looked at, someone says to pronounce it CARE-ful-ly. So I'll use the astronomers' pronunciation, if I ever need to utter the word again.

Does it honestly surprise anyone that Pintsize is infected with Butts disease? I think Station might already be suffering from early-onset Butts as well... hence why Marten sees that there is no harm in giving the e-mail address of the most powerful AI in existence (Wait, they have e-mails?) to his personal anthro-PC.

That's the one question I don't think she ever really considered.

Because it leads to a follow-up question that I think her psych knows - but won't ask her.

The very  moment I see Dora getting theraphy I instantly start to wonder if she's going to get back with Marten in the long run.
I doubt very much that either of them want that, and at the very least, I doubt both of them would want that at the same time.

Hmm funny.

Yes thats what you are supposed to think (Does Dora sabotage her relationships to compete with sven in the failed relationship stakes)
of course this is a friday cliffhanger (lampshaded as such) so we really should not draw any conclusions about what will happen.

  • He/him/his pronouns

Jeph does little details.

Notice the closed-up insecure body language in the first panel, not at all like the sassy confident persona she wears on the outside.

Which means she's dropping a defense, which bodes well for success in therapy.

I haven't been to therapy in months, and guess where I´m a-going to-day? :psyduck:

Maybe I´m just being paranoid..

I thought therapists weren't supposed to express a view in the way that this one does in the first panel.

They usually try to wrap things as far ahead of the clock as they can, too, because one of the biggest problems with therapy is that being left with a tension like this is worse than nothing at all.  (The dirty little secret is that wrapping things up ahead of the clock doesn't actually help.)

We also don't really know what Dora said just before that first statement.

In related news, I consider Dora's obliviousness with her therapist quite hilarious.

Btw did I miss something, or why is she no longer with Dr. Corinne?
Too far to get there from Amherst may be the closest answer, but I dunno, mostly you don't change therapists like pants once you are somewhat comfortable with someone, right?

Dora never had Dr. Corrine as a therapist. I'm too tired to link the comic but Faye explicitly said she got her a referral that would hook her up with a different therapist, and when Dora came back from the first one, she definitely used he/him pronouns.
