TinPenguin:
Personally, I'd rate the 'sneaking booze into milkshake' alongside 'asking the barman to tell your wife you left five minutes ago'.

Anyone else think Faye's word choice says something about her comfort level? She doesn't say "Y'all" all that often. In the early days of the strip, she had to get wasted before her southern accent came out, but here she is, sober for more than 24 hours and using southern vocabulary.

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

That explained a lot of the stuff before this particular arc, but I'm pretty sure he's said in some Q & A's that support groups were never his thing
Is it cold in here?:
I don't know whether or how much Jeph researches things before writing but it looks certain that he did for the Claire arc at least.

Fear of being forced into a support group is what finally got me to start managing my own drinking. In Faye's situation I'd have taken the crowbar blows and been through the window by now.

Anyone else feel the last two comics are out of order? Before Faye tells her story, Arthur says "we've heard from everybody." Then in the next comic, all the others tell their story? Weird.
