Poor Elliot. Also, how often is Yay just randomly hanging out there? :D
Farideh:
Elliot did say that Yay could come over whenever they wanted
Beast_Reborn:
Re. Claire's skepticism about psychics, I don't think there's any need to get offended on other characters' behalf. For one thing, Beeps doesn't seem to be easily offended, and her attitude here is like Hannelore's father wanting to test out his Ghostbusters invention rather than clinging to a cherished belief. Actually, in QC world, there really aren't any true believers in the supernatural. I'm not sure if Jeph would even be able to write such a character. Claire has the same scientific/skeptical attitude as Clinton (they think alike in a lot of ways), while others like Dora and Willow follow magic, astrology, or whatnot because they find it personally helpful, without taking the associated beliefs too seriously in literal terms.

I hope Pintsize can take it because he's been dishing it out for years! Plus Faye just admitted that he was a friend- that's a huge leap in their friendship IMHO.

Between this an your previous comment, I feel like we're reading different comics.
To clarify: in yesterday's strip, they were discussing psychics, with ghosts only being mentioned out of comic in the author comment. Today, Faye *refutes* that they're friends, or at least that refutes him getting a friend discount.

I give up then. My apologies for daring to make a statement on someone being an idiot about something then dare to make a statement about two characters who have a long and convoluted antagonistic relationship. My apologies for not following the herd.
Farideh:
Nobody says that you have to follow the herd. You're allowed to feel however you want about characters' actions, and you're also allowed to talk about that on the forum. In that same vein, other people are allowed to disagree with you.
This is a comic. It is a form of art, and as such it is open to interpretation, which is very subjective. I always enjoy reading a different take on the daily comic than mine, it expands my worldview and makes me consider things differently. I might not personally agree with the other interpretations, and other people might not agree with mine, and that is all fine. The world would be a very boring place indeed if we always agreed on everything (even if it would be more peaceful).
Disagreements aren't attacks. Try not to take them too personally.
