Has this place ever been on fire?
(Seriously, hello! I apologise that the thing that made me stop lurking after nearly ten years was an awful, awful joke. :-) )

Welcome, sort of new person!
If you've been reading the forum for ten years you know the answer is "yes". Unless you were fortunate enough to miss the Dora/Marten breakup.

Threats of violence aren't exactly rare, the joke being they'd never actually do anything. Not so funny until you know the person making the threats, I'll admit.
Example: I took a miss, the first chance I had to kiss a girl. Her father was on the porch cleaning his guns, with a devilish glint in his eye. At the time, I was terrified. Now I get that's just his sense of humor. He's hardly the only one in the area to do this kind of thing.
Call it bad jokes, I wouldn't disagree. I'd disagree that you have a right to SAY that as an objective fact, because humor's subjective, but that's just arguing semantics. Doesn't really matter, the fact is that's just how it is in my town. And not how it is in anyone else's, which is the main thing I've realized, since this isn't the first time I've noticed this.

Good example, because that's precisely the type of joke Jeph has made on this and numerous other occasions.
BenRG:
The real joke in today's strip is imagining that last bubble spoken in Hannelore's perky and upbeat tone of voice. I'm just wondering now how many fires they have had at CoD and how much of that was down to the quirky personalities of several staff (Cossette, especially).
I do have to wonder if poor Brun is going to have a complex about losing things that she values to fires. Her stoic demeanour has clearly been covering how totally traumatised she has been. I also feel more than a little sympathy for her not wanting to feel too much, given how disabling it is for her. My concern is that, when the dam finally bursts, it will be really catastrophic in its effects!
I do hope that Renee can stop her torrent of transferred anger and fears long enough to give her friend a strong hug!
--- Quote from: cesium133 on 31 May 2016, 19:54 ---Now I'm wondering if this is leading to Hannelore getting a roommate...
--- End quote ---
Yeah, me too. If Brun is in real and profound mental or emotional distress right now, I'd expect Hanners to be the first to notice, from bitter experience.
--- Quote from: jwhouk on 31 May 2016, 22:02 ---What I'm a bit puzzled about is that Dora's blonde tips aren't showing. When her hair gets that long, it starts to show blonde again (or so Jeph forgot, it seems).
--- End quote ---
She was deliberately trying to grow her hair out blonde on that occasion. This time, she must be keeping her roots dyed.
Is it cold in here?:
I vaguely remember Hannelore saying she couldn't handle having a roommate.
OK, 1586.
She's made a lot of progress since then.
Brun might not be the right person for the position though.
HauntingPoem:
If we collectively will it enough Hannelore will have a roomate!
I'll be back, have to concentrate on willing.
