ZoeB:
I didn't see that coming.
The issue for Clinton isn't that his mom is sexually active - it's that her paramour is younger than he is.

He'll never be able to talk to Chad in CompSci... or even look at him... ever again without this traitorous part of his hind-brain making him imagine him and his mother doing... things. It's not a recipe for ease of mind.

Yeah, in this case I get it, that's why I said it was only semi-related to the comic. I did mention that Clinton's reaction was pretty much normal.
The trope of "parents are having sex, child is weirded out/panics/has a BSOD" seems to be extremely common, though, and that's what I was referring to.
Eastrim:
There are things Man was not meant to know.
They include who their parents booty calls are, or that your age group is within their, shall we say, target demographic.
This guy reminds me of Captain Awesome, what with the gregariousness, manliness, and body comfort.

Why, does the discussion tick you off? :claireface:

I figured that was your assumption, which is why I endeavored to point out that in context what was being called strange (jokingly) was English, not Central Asian languages.

It's in the hotel safe.

I shall continue to nitpick, because there's no indication that they pass a safe in that entrance scene where she also doesn't have the clock.

Well, there's no indication of that being the case. They're clearly peers, but younger people tutor slightly older peers all the time in college, depending on what order they took their classes in.
oddtail:
Oh, and since I forgot to mention - I can't put my finger on exactly why, but Chad seems like such a chill dude, I think he's my favourite side character in the entire comic now =D I hope we get to see more of him.
Not in that way.
Although...

Well, for a second there I thought that people were just trying to wind me up. :claireface: :claireface:
