This forum, anytime someone says anything with potential for subtext in this comic:

To be fair,having a lot of people overanalyzing your comic is a sign that your comic is very successful. Most web comics don't get any comments at all.

--- Quote from: Neko_Ali on 05 Mar 2015, 05:40 ---I am beginning to find the conversations around the comics rather disheartening. Either we have a bunch of strips where people are being cute and squee-worthy and many people complain that it's to much, the characters are to flat and there is no dramatic tension. Or there is some sort of drama going on, and everyone wants to rip all the characters involved to shreds, psychoanalyzing every comment and declaring that the characters are the Worst People Ever. I guess it's a good thing I don't write a web comic. I probably would have just thrown up my hands by now.

I'm starting to get to this point myself.

I always find myself defending characters, because it seems like every character has a hateclub ready to jump on them the moment they do anything even remotely not perfect.
I swear, if some of the people in the forum were as strict with the behavior of real life people as they are with QC characters, there is no way they actually still have friends.

If I was reading Sexy Fairy Men and someone started talking to me about townie drama I wouldn't be listening either.
Don't wake the sleep-walker. Don't distract the driver. Don't talk to the bookworm.

"Townie" in the context of Northampton is a pretty empty term, since it pretty much just means anyone who lives in that town and isn't part of the self-important, trust-fund-intensive Smith College bubble.
But more important than that, I think people are taking issue with Marigold's boorishness - in-character though it might be - not because she really needs to hear this stuff but because it's important to Hanners, who asks for so little. Not that it should come as any surprise, since Hanners has done basically all the heavy friendship lifting. I hope she "asserts [her]self" again tomorrow.
I mean, really, what has Marigold ever done for Hanners besides allowing her to watch a WoW raid while breathing in a cloud of beef jerky farts?
