    He probably knew they were doing it before they did.

            I see Billie as more Chewie, always in the scene, making noise but nobody really listens.

            Faz is the Emperor, think about it. Who else would sit and gloat about how you are falling for his evil plan exactly as he thought you would, thus ruining his own plan?

      Not sure if that was a joke or not, so I’m answering seriously.

      The ‘panto’ in ‘pantomime’ is like the word ‘refrigerator’ compared to ‘fridge’ or ‘telephone’ compared to ‘phone;’ it’s part of the word but not usually used.

          Interestingly, the first definition for “pantomime” that popped up when I did so had the word “mime” in it.

          verb
          1.
          express or represent (something) by extravagant and exaggerated mime.

        Panto is a prefix from the Greek language, meaning “all.”

        The Greek word “mimos” is used to mean “imitator” or “actor.”

        Pantomime is derived from the Greek word pantomimos. It originally referred to a group who “imitates all” before its meaning changed to refer to the performance itself.

        For more detail, check it out on Wikipedia.

        Or, theorycrafting here… Mike’s parents are assholes and are perpetually drunk in social scenarios, hence he grew up learning to be an asshole from them and that alcohol is for when you “want to be nice”. Mike’s parents are thus chronic alcoholics because they have some survival need to be “nicer people”, and Mike’s always an asshole because he abhors how it transforms people to be completely the opposite of what they naturally would be.

        That’s under the assumption that the “nice drunk” tendency from Walkyverse carried over. That’s also under the assumption he’d drink at all, too. I’m 99% sure I’m wrong, but I thought it was interesting to consider.

    Also: I like the idea that conservative British jackass Captain Whathisface would cheat for Sal because she had the sex with him, and then only give her a C.

    Further also, I think Joyce just advanced one merry step closer to snapping and sucking a billion dicks.

        b) 74 is quite nearly “3 put of 4” and if as the Meat Loaf says, “Tao out of three ain’t bad” then surely three outta four is alright.
        c) she got a seventy-SIX. I’m sorry but I have to give you an alligator in reading comprehension.

        It depends on the school. My high school and college both used a scale where A was 93+, B was 86-92, C was 78-85, D was 70-77, and F was 0-69. The high schools in the districts surrounding mine used a scale where A was 90+, B 80-89, C 70-79, D 60-69, and F below 60, though.

        So Mr. Loaf would’ve failed at my high school, but gotten a solid D at the county high school. (Either way, I don’t think it qualifies as “not bad”.) And I dunno what scale IU uses, but at my college, Sal would’ve had a high D. But she’d fail at 69. (Maybe that’s why Billie and Ruth keep having problems.)

        Of course, I graduated from high school 22 years ago, so I guess it doesn’t say much about kids these days.

      Because they did absolutely nothing else except have sex during those TA sessions. Pretty sure Sal actually went to him for help and he was helping her try and understand the formulas, and she’s still seeing him to get tutored since I don’t think he gave in when she threatened to out him for his unprofessional relationship with a student. She managed to blackmail him into making time to tutor her more on demand, not to pass the class for having put out.

      The funny thing about Calc 1 is that once you know the Power Rule (which is extraordinarily simple for a term with such a badass name), you’re set for almost the entire course, since everything else is just an extension thereof.

      It’s fun to say “Calc 1 was easier than this” while performing trivial tasks just to show off, because it’s often true.

    I have this theory where Joyce’s positive attitude infects those she spends time with and improves their lives. The scale of the improvement is directly proportional to how much time they spend with her. Dorothy and Walky have improved the most, Billie’s in a much better place now, despite recent setbacks, Sal’s improving, Sarah’s improving.

    Hell the only people whoaren’t improving are danny and amber, the two people she’s spent no time with.

      It’s hard to not feel slightly more positive when someone is cheery and is going out of their way to be nice and include you. Probably means a lot to Sal to have someone actually pay attention to her and interact with her, as opposed to just acknowledging her presence in an area and keeping fixated on everything but her, like what her brother and mom did… and her dad, though he did pay a little attention to her on family day.

      Kinda forshadowing of peril for Joyce though… As everyone is improved by her presence and influence, so shall her fortunes possibly not turn out well. I’m theorizing that she legit falls in love with Ethan and is crushed when, SURPRISE! She couldn’t fix his “gay problem” no matter how much she tried to “save him” and fulfill her dream of getting a husband and having 2.5 kids.

    If Sal was treating the Prof’s dick like a sub sandwich, it’s no surprise she only got a 76. The best way to suck a dick is to treat it like a BLT – slather it in mayo, wrap it in bacon and lettuce, then garnish with sliced tomatoes before inserting it into your mouth.

      Odd. I had the same reaction. The “choose to believe” says she really knows what Mike’s implying, but chooses not to follow the implications. Before, I would have said the comment would have gone over her—no pun intended–head.

    Which one was Joyce offended about?
    The idea of 69?
    Blowjobs?
    Sal doing 69?
    Or Mike demonstrating homosexuality (to her bf)?

    Trying to figure out why the second fundemental theorem of calculus is on the same board as a limit to infinity. Is this a math class built entirely on concepts and definitions?! That would have been much better pre-calc than pre-calc was. 😛

Happy Nonbinary People's Day, you gemstones. A year or two back we introduced FLASH GORDON's first enby, the outlaw lawman Bones Malock. Having known and loved a lot of nonbinary people, I knew the truest way to represent you was as a unsettling desert pirate with a lightning sword
Flash Gordon's Bones Malock:
Bones Malock, under captions reading:
Bones Malock and Flash Gordon.

Flash: Okay... wait thirty seconds, then give me a distraction.

Bones: Got just the thing.

Flash: Do NOT blow the place up.

Bones: You're the boss.

Okay, everyone's jumping to conclusions, but Joyce was hit with a mysterious pink gas in Thursday's strip. Now, in recent years, the police are known to increasingly use military grade weapons. Which reminded me of this bit of proposed technology from the 1990s: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_bomb
