--- Quote from: VonKleist on 23 May 2012, 00:56 ---I like the mason-jar thing.
My family had a ton of empty mustard glasses to drink from

Which is pretty commonplace in Germany.
Or at least was
In the 80īs
Oh dear.

I HAVE THOSE IN MY HOUSE
And I wasn't alive in the 80s. Also, german family background. Sorta.
--- Quote from: Barmymoo on 23 May 2012, 04:58 ---I wouldn't have that exact conversation, because I wouldn't use those exact words with anyone. But I have had similar conversations to today's strip with my brother after he had his heart trampled all over by a girl at school (recommending dating other people, rather than having lots of sex, though) and the conversation from yesterday with a couple of friends, minus the horny comment.
Interesting question though; how many people actually do talk to their parents about sex in the way that Marten presumably could, and Faye certainly doesn't? I'd only ever talk about sex to my dad's girlfriend, never my mum or dad, and certainly never my stepdad who I believe probably thinks I'm still a virgin and I'm happy to keep it that way until I'm married.

Not many people could handle that conversation with their mom. It's easier with one's father, but it's still kinda awkward - some of that awkwardness is because his sex life is quite often, um, the mother.
Reverse mom and dad to get what (I think) is a typical woman's perspective. Oh, and I tried writing it from a gender-neutral position, but that was awkward. (Not many people could handle that conversation with their opposite gendered parent... yeah.)

I just noticed something: the pose that Dora strikes in the first panel Wednesday (2193) seems reminiscent of how Jeph drew her and the others back about 1500 strips ago - which is interesting, considering he's working on Volume 3.

Oh, and I'm drinking out of a mason jar right now. Not red wine, though. Sprite Zero.

Also interesting in that Marten's been to the store and gotten some soup since then. Sort of.

Heh. "Pantone wants to license the color."
And I have a sneaky suspicion that IDUHG is going to do something with that third panel...
