WCDT Strips 3886 - 3890 (3rd - 7th December 2018)

Careful Roko you might get knocked over by Emily in a moment.
BenRG:
Today's strip reminds us of an important lesson: Some belief systems have a tendency to re-organise the universe around the believer. What most would perceive as a bug, most perceive as just another detail in the tapestry of their reality. What it doesn't and never does is disprove said belief system!
Meanwhile... Well, what is 'normal' anyway, Roko? We're all normal in our own eyes. I'm sure that Fairy Girl considers herself normal too. The only Northamptonite who has, to my knowledge, raised the 'weird and proud' flag is Emily and she isn't on any known bell curve anyway! Still, this does suggest that this is something Jeph is trying to emphasise with Roko: Yes, she has a kink but, that aside, you'd be surprised how average she is in most ways!

It didn't look to me as if that sign was for the place at which Roko had been interviewing; it looks like another office on the same floor, on the other side of the lift.

hmmm, sounds about right from the writings of Lovecraft. Although I did expected 'a tad strange' to be less amusing and more frighting.
traroth:
Why is normality so important?
Anyway, you can consider somebody as "normal" only as long as you don't really know them. That's when you understand they are as strange and far from the "norm" than anyone else. Normality is only an appearance.
