--- Quote from: BenRG on 27 Aug 2018, 23:29 ---Hands up who read Claire's suggested tattoo in panel 5 as 'Nobody's Perfect' and had to read the speech bubble slowly to see the joke. Ah, the wonders of the mind's ability to correct for what it expects to see rather than what is there! :-P

I was even signing on to say the tattoo should read like Eleanor's joke in The Good Place. I can't believe I didn't see the joke was already what she said!
JoeCovenant:
Shyyeaaaahhh...
This particular arc isn't making me like Claire any better...
RMc:
"I didn't want to turn this into a referendum on your privilege"?
Who talks like this? Good Lord, how tiresome this girl is.

--- Quote from: BenRG on 27 Aug 2018, 23:29 ---I think that it was very polite of Marten not to tell Claire that his 'privilege' was realising that Tai had written the job application form in iambic pentameter.
--- End quote ---
Indeed, as well as the fact that it was just a matter of "right place, right time". Had Claire been in that position, she could just as easily have had the same "privilege" she accuses Marten of having.
Now maybe someone like Brun can come along and point out to Claire about her own "privilege" of getting to have a post-secondary education, let alone one in a field that's actually useful in life, one that can become an actual career. (Even if in low demand).
Cornelius:
It's only tuesday. So let's see where this takes us.
Much though I can understand the need, right now, for Claire to get the support she needs, she is working on assumptions based on things that developed after the fact. Part of it might be her own anxiety, her own focus on the path she's chosen for herself, but that's only more reason for her to see the true context.
That's why I wondered how much time has passed. (Thanks, dutchvlr!)
