You specified Comic Sans in Jeph's forum! I guess that means you aren't aware of this site, and Jeph's involvement with it!

I did not know that. And while I agree that very often Comic Sans is way overused (it should never ever be used for a serious text), in the is particular case, I thought it would be the best choice (of those available) to mark the title of a Comic Arc.

When I first saw it this morning I was a bit confused because I was reading it on a Linux computer that doesn't have Comic Sans MS installed and it instead displayed it as Times New Roman.
Smallest:
re: Sven in general, I would not mind if something happened between him and Faye, maybe, but only if it was at least a while later. Not a rebound, or at least not an immediate entirely sucky one. I don't think Sven would fuck drunk Faye, and probably not even severely distraught Faye (or at least, not right away).
But I think if anything happens, Faye too may end up not speaking to him anymore, because if he approaches her in any way (rather than she approaching him), she is going to lash out at him, and he will probably lash back. (or there'll be a hug like when she went to his night and met their dad, but that would be a completely different can of worms.).
--- Quote from: NilsO on 16 Oct 2014, 01:52 ---This does not look good. I expect a breakup statement from Faye tomorrow. As for the future, I am really afraid Sven's confession of love may have consequences. My best hope is that Marten and Dora team up to keep Sven away from Faye (and Faye away from booze) at all costs. This will no doubt be a strain for Claire, who has insecurities to deal with.

Or a week of relationship talk that is obviously ending as a breakup for us all to be frustrated at, rather than the bandaid rip Dora and Marten had.

--- End quote ---
How is a "man crush" different from any other "crush"? Or is the answer inappropriate for this forum (if it directly implies the assumed inferiority of certain kinds of sexual attraction, then yes).
--- End quote ---
I know people already have replied, but generally it's a non-sexual 'crush' on the gender you're not attracted to (or a person you're not attracted to sexually). Sometimes fanboy/girl y, sometimes on that one person in a group of friends who seems so cool (in that case, also a 'friend-crush'). Ladies sometimes say girl-crush, but I think generally friend crush or fanboy/girling (depending whether it's a friend or a celebrity/character) are easier phrases to make sense and not be offensive to anyone.

--- Quote from: Aziraphale on 15 Oct 2014, 21:57 ---Nobody's perfect, either IRL or in fiction, so it'd be silly to expect perfection from him or anybody else. But compare him to pretty much everybody else in-comic besides, say, Penelope. Each one of them is a hot mess in some respect, but they also have something -- a skill or talent that sets them apart, or at least makes them bearable. Marten's indecisive as hell, but is a good friend and confidant, and could probably do something with his music if he had the confidence to pull it off. Faye's slowly getting the confidence back to get into her sculpture. Raven, bless her ditzy self, has intellectual gifts that are at odds with her image. Sven's a lothario that you wouldn't want within a country mile of your daughter, but writes mega hits practically without trying, in much the same way that even Jimbo manages to crank out bestsellers even though we only ever seem to see him on the verge of weeping into his yellow beer in dive bars. Try as I might, I can't see anything similar for Angus. Sure, we're told he's witty, but we haven't seen it.

Goes on to list every characters' artistic talents. Conveniently ignores Angus' considerable ACTING TALENT, which is the reason he's leaving in the first place.

I don't know where this is from, but this is amazing and it scared me a little.

Transformers: The Movie, 1985. Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime. Amazing.
