--- Quote from: TRVA123 on 07 Feb 2015, 06:52 ---ok, from my perspective, as one of the people where the sugary Marten/Claire strips did nothing for them, it wasn't about drama, or a need for the characters to suffer, or anything like that. It simply is that I like to have a strip that interests me in some way. Either a joke, plot progression, something moving.
Jephs depiction of Marten and Claire's first date just felt like a repeat of the same strip, over and over, with small changes.
I've liked the last two strips because they are something DIFFERENT, something interesting. When Marten asked Claire out, that was interesting.

I think it was the 'Ice cream kisses!' comic that made me roll my eyes so hard that I nearly gave my optic nerves torsion damage. It seemed... ridiculously juvenile, more in line with what a junior high relationship would be. Then again, I despise PDAs (they weird me out, big time), and it's likely a side effect of me being well on my way to being an old cat lady.

This might be an absolutely ridiculous POV since I've never had a relationship, but after knowing what happened to a friend in his first fumbled attempt at relationship (he was 20 at the time) and scared of what would happen in mine... It looks normal. Yes, it looks junior high. Turns out that Claire's date-fu might probably be at that "age", experience or however you want to call it (remember it's her first serious relationship), and it makes perfect sense to look like that.
At least to me.

Why, with music and scented candles, of course.

Oh, I'm not saying that it doesn't make sense. I just don't like that kind of super-sweet interaction. I have enough cavities as it is.

That I can understand. Happens with the part that went well of said fumbled attempt at relationship (It's a bit more complicated than "dude asks dudette, dudette tells him to fok off m9"). Dude has changed sport allegiances and everything. Started playing WoW...
I tend to troll a bit on their twitter interactions because sometimes I can't handle the sugar.

Do you hate puppies too?
