      I’m liking it too. Do I think they should date? No. Do I think they should make out once? Perhaps. Both are kind of blunt jerks butting up against each other but not in a destructive way. There is potential there for a good friendship.

    I know this is a lomg shot, but do you think this will get Amber and Walky back together? As much as I enjoy Lucy(I don’t but that is neither here nor there) I feel like Walky and Amber are a good couple. They have some issues but nothing insurmountable.

    I’m not sure, what do you think?

    • Sirksome
      Sirksome
      October 22, 2022 at 12:14 am | #

      I think the nail’s in the coffin on that. Mainly because neither has made a move to really reconcile why the split in the first place. The attraction is obviously still there but without desire to address the problem they’ll just come into conflict again if not over Mike then something else. I see them maybe banging again sometime when they’re both free but not dating.

      This times 1,000. Of all the couples DOA put together that I didn’t know I wanted, Amber/Walky had to have been my favorite. I want them to get back together so damn bad and it sucks cuz I just have a feeling that bridge is burned. Either Walky has to change or Both have to change but neither is going to change and if they do they may change in a way that makes them realize they might not be great for each other, like Ruth did.

      I mean I feel myself wanting it but is it ok for me to want it? Should I dare to get my hopes up or should I keep trying to get over it and except that they both have a new fresh start?

      My mind is telling me to be realistic and stop fixating on something that came and gone but my heart is telling me not to give up on the spark so easily. But even then I got to wonder should I listen to the mind and over think this type of matter or are these actually how I feel or is it just a strong lingering feeling with a mix of nostalgia?

      There’s just so much to be unsure about. So I’m just going to sit back and enjoy watching the chips fall where they may, see where it all leads maybe they get back together or maybe Walky stays with Lucy who knows.

      Lucy’s good for him, and he makes her happy. They revolve around similar nerd fandoms. They are comfortable together (mostly). She encourages his projects and helps him take more pride in how he presents himself. I like Lucy and Walky together. They click.

      At this point, I don’t ship Amber with ANYONE. After she assaulted Walky at the Halloween party, her best option is to forget romance, sex, and everything related to either, until she can actually get the help she needs with her anger issues.

      As for Booster… nah, I don’t ship creepsters.

    At this point, Booster knows enough for it to count as hot reading. They’re just not going to say “hot reading” in the context of Amber after just saying they won’t imply she’s hot. (It wouldn’t imply that she’s hot, but it would feel like they were tap-dancing on the boundary just to prove they can.)

    I’ll give Booster a pass on their nose-poking-in bit here. Yeah, they did just promise to cut that out, but it’s the active conversation, and when someone says something that heavily self-loathing, it’s going to be hard for anyone to not comment in reply…

          So that if the series of terms “monopod”, “bipod”, “tripod”, “tetrapod”, “pentapod”, “hexapod” etc. were extended to its thousandth term, the word would be “chiliapod”. A millipede is a specific kind of animal, an arthropod with two pairs of legs per body segment.

        English was invented when someone threw a bunch of Germanic languages in a blender with some French dialects, but they didn’t like how it came out so they tried to fix it by seasoning with loanwords from around the globe.

          Well, much of Celtic Britain had been substantially Romanized by long occupation centuries before all those Danes, Saxons, Normans, Anglii, etc. came, so there were quite a lot of Latin derivatives in British languages already.

            Don’t know if this finally escapes moderation, but most English words with Latin roots don’t come from their time under Roman rule, but from being christianized about a millenium later

          Nice. Another version I’ve heard is that it’s three languages in a trenchcoat. Or that it’s the result of Norman French mercenaries trying to pick up Saxon barmaids, and no more legitimate than the other products of such hookups.

      I thought cold reading was this shady technique psychics use to trick you into revealing all sorts of stuff about yourself and then make you think they read it from your mind or whatever. Or is there another meaning to the term that I’m not aware of?

      • Sam
        Sam
        October 22, 2022 at 3:33 am | #

        It is that. Cold reading is basically luring people into revealing things while also using the most common trends of life to form narratives or guesses to why someone is acting how they are then presenting it with confidence.

        Like most family homes have two kids, most older relatives that have passed are men, more deaths are caused by things affecting your chest or abdomen (you know, where you keep every organ except your brain) etc..

        It can seem really personal when they say Uncle Doug is proud of you after passing from a heart attack, but they didn’t tell you that until after you said it was a heart issue and supplied his name so were clearly seeking some kind of affirmation. And of course, every ‘message’ is positive, because they want people to keep coming, they are never ‘surprised’ by a bad ‘message’.

          It can be very hard, for us grammar nerds. It is physically difficult to do this. “No, that’s wrong! Agreement in number! Go stand in the corner!”

          I reckon I’ll learn eventually and it will get somewhat easier. Only somewhat.

            What makes it difficult for me is that I have friends who are plural systems, who use “we/they/them” pronouns, too. Makes it difficult for me to differentiate whether I’m talking about an nonbinary person or a multiple. (Hope I got the terminology right!)
            That’s why I just don’t use pronouns to describe myself. None of them exactly fit me.

            I’m a grammar nerd who uses they/thems. Implying it’s bad English is insulting even if you don’t mean it as such, I don’t feel physical pain and grammar was my best subject. For me I just tried it and it felt right. No one decent is *trying* to confuse people with their pronouns. I hope you’ll consider working on it.

    I’m impressed by how hard Booster is trying to contain themselves. They really want to be friend with Amber and don’t scare her. It’s almost like seeing someone try to approach a stray cat. But even Amber is really trying hard to have a new friend despite her saying she wants to be a hermit. I really like this couple ♡..

    Wait Amber wants a relationship where she controls things….? I thought she didn’t want a relationship at all because she thinks she’s not good enough? Honestly I need like an annotated directory to the specific comics that are relevant to Amber’s romantic journey to make sense of this.

      She can not want a relationship and have strong opinions about what kind of relationship she’d like.

      Like how I spend time writing my stand-up routine, planning what venue at the Edinburgh Fringe I’d most like to book, and so on, while at the same time knowing I am never, ever going to stand in front of a crowd of people and say things, because good lord no.

      It IS happening simultaneously. The girl in the gender studies class who looks suspiciously like Booster is their sister.

        We don’t techniccally know that yet. All we know is that a) she isn’t Booster and b) Booster does have a sister. I mean, she obviously is, but there’s always the chance it’s a red herring.

          Imagine that my emphasis on “technically” involves elongating it so I sound the second c twice, and not that I just can’t spell.

      Maybe! That’s a read I hadn’t considered. I don’t actually think that Amber wants what she said in that panel. Her facial expression looks kinda like she’s doing a bit rather than being serious. I don’t think Amber would intentionally let herself be that terrible to a partner; I’d believe Amber would be looking for a hookup but doesn’t trust that she’s in the right place for a relationship.

    I don’t understand “it’s a crutch” the way it’s normally used. If someone is using a crutch in real life, it’s because they need one, but “it’s a crutch” as a metaphor usually seems to mean “I should stop leaning on this thing for support and just support myself”. Which is the opposite of what a crutch is for. A crutch is for when you should not, in fact, support yourself. Maybe if people said “false crutch” instead?

Who's that guy over there?
