Been a while since I did one of these - but I'm off work this week and you're now stuck with it.

Rather than focus on our own desires I though I would see what we might do for the man responsible for our enjoyment.

I went with the whiskey, as I've got a nice glass of the stuff right next to me.

So cheers to Jeph, both for producing an amazing comic that can generate such rabid....fanism... and for putting up with the forum, however much we may annoy him.

I had almost EXACTLY this meal with my mom a couple of years ago, though she prefers margaritas to martinis. Her comment about my endowment was not based on a nurse's assessment but on word-of-mouth from my exes.  I thought I would die, and can TOTALLY sympathize with Marten.

But of course Marten would never say that to his mom.



Anyhoo...

What would Dora say if Martymom's little gambit worked and Our Boy ended up on a date with this nice young lady?

I think the comment on his anatomy crossed the line from good natured ribbing to full blown sadistic glee. Ah, parents, making sure we pay for our teenage rebellion, one comment at a time.

Yeah, even if the waitress was interested, Marten's made it pretty clear he's not interested in going for the rebound. And especially not when he's hungover and his skull aches from the owls.

I actually kind of wish that the waitress would become a new character.

I know it's stupid to be wishing for another female character, but new stuff is fun! I get as excited for new characters as I do for sight-reading new music.

I've had to avert a few situations like this with my mother.  Thankfully she gets the hint rather quickly, but it won't stop her from prodding me to see if I'm interested.  She finds it weird that I'm a single, good-looking guy (no, I'm not embellishing myself here :wink: ) who has little to no interest in dating.  I guess I see the concept of 'dating' in the traditional sense to be an archaic thing, a situation that feels forced (IMHO) and doesn't really work today.  Or then again maybe I'm just retarded.  Or suck at talking to women I hardly know (and even those I've known for years).  Or both.

I became 23 during my honeymoon (first marriage).  It was only after it ended 22 years later that I realised how thoroughly I'd been manoeuvred into it - not by my mum though.

I'm 23 and as close to married as I ever intend to be. (Intend is likely the operative word here.)

Anyway I have to say Martin's got a lot of patience. In that situation, with and hangover and head wound, I'd probably have just walked out and gone back to bed.

As a contrast to the last few people, I'm 23 now, and don't intend to get married for a while, and in fact have never even been in a serious relationship.  I can't imagine getting married so young, but hey, whatever works.

He's a regular, but has never actually appeared in the comic. 

(But note that the poster has spelt Marten correctly in previous posts, so this is just a blip.)

Seriously, there can be many good reasons why your spelling may not be perfect, and we should not judge you because of that; but in general names  you should try to take extra care over, please.

Hahahaha omg I don't know how he managed to keep his replies free of cursing, especially at that last one. Poor Marten, but I enjoy his agony so ~
If I was the waitress though I think I might've found his reaction kind of endearing; he may very well have gotten my numbers for his trouble.

Just to jump on the bandwagon: I'm 30 and I've never been married, but I've been proposed to, twice (obvious what my answers were, heh.) Although to be fair, I was young and those relationships were short. Although my longest lasting one - seven years - marriage was talked about, but never seriously considered (well, by me that is.)
Huh I never really thought about it, I guess I'm just not the marryin' type.

Oh no, the cursing is still in there.  It's the inflection; you have to read between the very few lines.

Panel 1:  Weren't we supposed to be having a nice lunch together?
Panel 2:  Seriously, Dora and I just broke up.
Panel 3:  This is incredibly embarrassing.  At least for me.
Panel 4:  GOD.  FUCKING.  DAMMIT.

"MOM"

Since Marten's position is too familiar to be very funny to me (familiar in a TV Tropes way, my mom was pretty good at avoiding public mortification), I ended up focusing on the waitress' reaction. I'll call her... Vanessa, for the time being. Vanessa seems to either like this idea, or be amused at Marten's predicament. I hope it's the former, because if he ever gets into another relationship it probably can't be someone we already know, so why not the gorgeous waitress his mom set him up with?

There's no good time or bad time to get married. It depends entirely on the people involved.

Any time prior to the time when both people involved have supported them self (i.e., lived on their own for X amount of time outside of their parents' house and without relying on said parents for support) is a bad time.

EDIT: This is based on the bit about how almost all marriages that end in divorce end due to financial issues as the primary reason listed in the divorce paperwork statistic.

Well, I hadn't lived away from home (apart from uni, which didn't really count as independent) when I got married.  Yes, it ended in divorce, but not until 22 years later, which seems to me not likely to be for that reason!  My second wife refused to consider our living together until I had lived alone for a year or so, and I don't regret that - I would say it's good advice in general, but as much for development of the personality as financial nouse.

So much for WCDT - this is the marriage history thread!

24, myself, both my wife and I had been on our own for a couple of years.  She was 20, got thrown out of the house at 18.  I'd been teaching while atending grad school. 

25th anniversary coming in the spring...  gotta find something silver.

Whatever floats your boat man.  You don't mind if I use the single malt to wipe that image from my brain do you?

There's no good time or bad time to get married. It depends entirely on the people involved.

Truth.

Married @ 26. Still married. So there. :P

Ditto, though I'm only 28 now so probably less impressive.

Sorry for not posting the results of the previous poll, but with the boys using the real computers I was limited to the iTouch.

What should we get Jeph for Christmas?

Less shipping (the winner by a landslide)
Peace on Earth and good whiskey for men (the no.2 choice)
Dave Willis carrying out his commands (last choice)
(I can't remember the fourth option)

The man himself though wants something else.

I had been on my own since 23 when I got married at 31. We're still going strong 11 years later, so there seems to be at least some correlation. Still, as pwhodges' divorce after 22 years shows, a married couple can't really say they've "made it" until death truly parts them.

As for the comic-poor Marten. Hope he at least gets a sympathy date out of this. Although knowing him, he's most likely not interested in jumping back into the dating pool just yet. Considering the way Dora rushed him and how that turned out, he probably won't be interested for a good long time.
