WCDT Strips 3226 to 3230 (25 - 27 May 2016)
Is it cold in here?:
In Clinton's defense it was the most recent of the shocks of the evening and therefore salient.
It's also the only one that stayed emotionally unresolved due to the lack of any appropriate action. You're in a fire? You help others out, problem solved. Someone's apartment destroyed? You get her to a hotel, immediate problem solved. You can't handle your mother enjoying a hookup? No solution, short of changing your emotions, a slow process. Problems that can be solved are less likely to haunt you.

A DC comic? Definitely "Identity Crisis" :-D
I donīt think Clinton is making a show in panel three. I rather suppose that recapitulating the event last night and his sisters relaxed reaction to it sends pictures to his inner eyes heīd rather prefer to forget. So I think heīs just shivering.

That went down more or less as expected.
Has he checked in with Brun yet?

Genetics are so unfair. Here I am, 23, 5'6'' and looking like a kid by comparison.

Looking older when young generally indicates that one will also look older when older, so take it as a blessing.

Exactly this. I'm twenty four and can easily pass for seventeen. I'm shorter, don't have facial hair, and have what my friends call "babyface syndrome". I used to hate it, but now I've settled with this precise rationale; when my friends and I are fifty, they'll look their age and I won't. It's a pain at the start, but babyface syndrome is a long con, my dude. It always pays off on the other end.

Can confirm, because I am at the opposite end of this. I always looked a few years older than I was, and when I was 14 or 16 or even 20, that was great. Currently at 29, I've been mistaken for being in my forties. Not constantly, but often enough to make me very, very sad. Even people who don't go that far usually tend to assume I'm in my mid-thirties or something.
The only silver lining is that a big part of this is likely due to my becoming bald very early in my life, so hopefully when I'm 40 people will not assume I'm 55 or something. Hopefully.
