Oh you guys already know I'm going to voice my displeasure over this strip. Tai has officially crossed the border from "slightly annoying" into full blown "irritating." Getting so insecure and possessive as to stop Marten mid-conversation to ask the same question he just asked? I don't even.  :psyduck:

Redball:
I think the strip and Tai's tugging at Martin so she could pass the invitation to Dora was a hoot. Tai doesn't irritate me. She is what she is. She is what Jeph makes her. She's a character, with a personality. Maybe out of my ignorance of the generation, I think she's believable. I like her, warts and all.

--- Quote from: crowbar563 on 04 Oct 2012, 12:45 ---I guess I am just used to ladies taking scissors to their shirts. It is most notable in the student sections during football games. It's most notable when they slice open the sides and stand right in front of you. Its like "I don't want to stare, but you are putting everything right in front of my face. This is getting awkward."

Oh I don't have a problem with that particular style.  My college days are only a few months ago and yes...ladies take the scissors to their shirts quite often and its incredibly distracting and find it completely ridiculous when they catch you looking and give you dirty looks.  I mean.....c'mon, admit it.  You did that partly to ventilate, mostly to flash the flesh.


What I dislike about Tai's continued "puppy love" as some of you seem to find it and find it cute....it's bordering on obsession.  Now, she's always been obsessed over Dora but it was manageable because she was dating Marten.  Now that she is kinda dating Dora, it's melodramatic and overdone.

Then again....I had a...quasi-relationship with a girl my sophomore year of college.  Ok, probably more friends with benefits nature.  Other than not being a butch lesbian, she was pretty much time.  Over the top, obsessive, overbearing, and controlling.  Needless to say that didn't last long, however we were both on the same residential life staff.  My god that was the most frustrating several months of my college career.  That's pretty much why Tai completely turns me off.

--- End quote ---
Pretty definitely, I think. In her old chassis Marigold, and Faye even more so, treated her like a doll or toy. Remember the way Faye used to peer up her skirt, or toss her around, for example? It makes Emily's belly-button pushing look pretty tame.

As for Tai in 2289, I think Jeph went for the funny more than the character development here, and that's fine. Marten's expression in the third panel is brilliantly done.

I don't understand all the bibble-babble about Dora's top. It's just an ordinary wide-necked top of the sort that's intended to be worn off the shoulder, or at least always slips that way. No scissors are required. Don't you guys pay any attention to what girls are wearing? Hey, it's been a while since I posted a fashion-rant...

Tova:
THE LAST COMIC CERTAINLY WAS SERIOUS BUSINESS.
