A couple pages late, but I also don't think we'll see Farthur. He shot himself.

I suspect that Jeph is writing from personal experience right now.

Goddamn it.

Maybe it is. If so - join the club. We are a circle here, you know. If you could do with some help, a sympathetic ear, free advice (only if you ask for it and worth what you pay for it) but mostly someone to listen and tell you you're not alone - we're here. Part of humanity, as you are.

Hey, yall are good people, that's why I stay here. We disagree on a lot (hey look down there in the discuss subforum!), but for the most part everyone is very respectful and that's freakin' wonderful.

I think this last comic hit home for me a lot because my brother died last year as a passenger in a drunk driving accident. I do the opposite that Faye does in these comics. I drink to actually feel something.

--- Quote from: TRVA123 on 24 Mar 2015, 19:55 ---We probably will never know much more than we currently know about Faye's dad's drinking. However, the fact that he drank in secret, coupled with Faye's own alcoholic tendencies, is very suggestive. I don't see why it should be just dismissed out of hand as an inconsequential thing.

I'm not dismissing it out of hand. I just don't feel the evidence we have supports the theory that Faye's dad was an alcoholic. Since we're almost certainly not going to find out more evidence, all we know his he had one drink a week away from his wife who didn't approve of drinking. If he drank at other times that Faye didn't know about, maybe. But the evidence we have doesn't say he was hiding his drinking since it was an open secret with Faye. He was just hiding it from his wife.

--- End quote ---

Remember, all we know about Faye's dad's drinking is what she's told Marten.  Sneaking booze into a milkshake--in front of your kid, no less--is ominous, and could be only that tip of the iceberg that Faye has allowed us to see. But as noted elsewhere, it's only a hint, not real evidence.  So far. It'll be interesting to see if Faye opens up more about this.

osaka:
I would believe that's all she knew about, if there's anything more. People who want to hide that kind of stuff get surprisingly good at it.
