            Personally, I think we haven’t reformed spelling <b?enough. The letter “C” has had a reign of confusion that has gone on far too long.

              I personally am partial to thorn and use it semi-regularly; but I have a 10th century Norse persona in a Medieval recreation group, so.

              Can I just say that having the formal/plural and informal/familiar you/thou back again would be really freaking helpful sometimes? “Y’all” isn’t always appropriate.

              Thorn and eth are, in fact, a loss. ‘Th’ has two different pronunciations, which map to them.

              For the other two, due to pronunciation drift, yogh would really only be useful as an etymological marker, and ash’s usefulness as an English letter over the non-ligature ‘ae’, or simply e, is debatable. (And it is still used, though less commonly.)

                Actually, since “yogh” made two sounds (a “y” sound and a “gh” sound (which sounds a bit like a cat’s hiss)) it would be a useful replacement for all the silent gh’s out there. Not so sure about the ones that make “f” sounds now, thouʒ (the one in ghost was due to the Dutch printers trying use Dutch orthography rules for English – they inserted an h into gost)

                  Actually, since “yogh” made two sounds

                  That’s kind of my point, though – it, as well as the variant pronunciations of the ‘gh’ digraph, is why it’s disuse isn’t a huge loss.

                  Ȝ, like the ‘gh’ digraph, wouldn’t be as useful a guide to pronunciation as the ‘y’ that replaced it as the glyph for the /j/ sound, and would really only be a marker of the etymology, and, occasionally, for distinguishing homophones, but for places where it was ‘gh’, the digraph does that perfectly well, and I can’t think of any case where it would do either for /j/ words.

              A Plan for the Improvement of English Spelling:
              For example, in Year 1 that useless letter “c” would be dropped to be replased either by “k” or “s”, and likewise “x” would no longer be part of the alphabet.

              The only kase in which “c” would be retained would be the “ch” formation, which will be dealt with later.

              Year 2 might reform “w” spelling, so that “which” and “one” would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish “y” replasing it with “i” and iear 4 might fiks the “g/j” anomali wonse and for all.

              Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.

              Bai iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez “c”, “y” and “x” — bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez — tu riplais “ch”, “sh”, and “th” rispektivli.

                Y’know, I never understood the hate for double letters. Sure, they don’t lengthen the sound of the consonant itself, but they do serve a purpose in English orthography: they shorten the previous vowel! That’s why you learn to double the last consonant in short words with short last syllables when adding “ing”, “ed” or “es”, provided the last letter isn’t an x, part of a digraph (th, sh, ch, gh, ng), or already paired up (any other pair of consonants). It’s also why I’ll always spell “bussing” et al. with two s’s – no one says “omnibus” any more.

                Also, I’m pretty sure Mark Twain spoke with a rhotic accent, and even if he didn’t, he had to have known rhotic vs. non-rhotic was the defining feature separating American English from British English. So it was almost definitely not him (letez, doderez). Wouldn’t put it past Jonathan Swift, though.

              Thorn and eth performed valuable functions! Ever since the French showed up with their tee-aitches and the Dutch with their printing-presses we’ve been stuck with the same digraph for two very different sounds!
              And yes, I saw Kamino’s comment before posting this one, it just bears repeating.

                  Yes, I know, but so were s and z, and f and v. And it wasn’t actually indiscriminate. The þ, s and f were voiceless in most positions, but were voiced when placed between vowels, because that’s just the way Old and Middle English worked. Z’s and v’s were predominately used in loan words from Latin and Greek and for the most part were treated the exact same way as s and f, and the only reason ð (a fancy d with a stroke, the capital form isn’t even fancy) even exists is because when English finally started differentiating it’s voiced and voiceless fricatives (around the Late Middle/ Early Modern period), there was an orthographic gap.

                  Give it a few more decades and it will.
                  If we’re talking about straightening out the spelling, might as well regularize some of the sillier grammatical accidents of history.
                  Interestingly, the possessive for “it” originally had an apostrophe, losing it by the early 19th century.

          Ðat’s an eð, not a þorn. Ðey’re two totally different letters, alðough ðey boþ represent sounds represented by ‘th’ in standard English orþography.

          (And, unlike the long s, reintroducing ðem would serve a purpose, as ðey represent different sounds, and ðus would be a better pronunciation guide.)

          Also, you’re misusing the long s. It’s not used for the last letter – unleſs, þorns, as. (Also, although you didn’t use a word thus spelt, it’s also only used for the first of a double s, even in the middle of a word – so miſsile, frex.)

        So, in Shakespeare’s The Tempest, the sprite Ariel sings:

        Where the bee sucks, there suck I
        In a cowslip’s bell I lie

        This was set to music by Robert Johnson (among many others), and it’s a lovely little piece. But the primary reason one of my friends brought it to the attention of my Early Music group’s mentor had to do with the way that it looks on the : printed page/a>.

        I haven’t seen this many long s-es since using them as shorthand for “folder” on System 7. (It only allowed 31 characters in file and folder names, we had to make them count! It made them easy to type, something like Option-S.)

          Those weren’t long s-es, they were what Unicode calls “Latin Small Letter F With Hook”. The keystroke was option-F; ƒ. Hey, it still works!

            Yes! That was it! Somebody around here keeps using the long S and it blurred in my mind. They look the same to me! There’s only so much definition you could get with so few pixels.

        Personally, I think that the English alphabet needs a new* letter for what you normally refer to as an “R”, but which is more like a really, really thick L**.

        *Or possibly re-introduce some old letter that has fallen out of use. Either way.

        **Certain dialects (such as Scottish) are of course using a more proper R sound, and are therefore allowed to keep the R letter.

        I was in my first round of college — when I was the same age as the DoA cast — exactly four decades ago. It’s kind of a Rashomon experience for me to acknowledge that apparently, in some places, panty raids were in fact a contemporary thing.

        Then again, I was in a small liberal arts college in an area full of small liberal arts colleges, so my own experience may not be particularly relevant on this topic (or any other).

      When I was reading Mad Magazine in the late 60’s, it was still a thing in the minds of the writers of Mad Magazine, who were in college in the 50’s. As far as I can tell, it was one of those things that existed more in popular culture than in fact, and insofar as it did exist in fact, it did so only in the mid-50’s.

      The fact that a fictional floating-timeline 16-year-old could know about panty raids is, I suppose, proof of the persistence of pop culture memes. I suspect the movie Animal House may have played a part in the transmission of this meme.

      It was a thing that started on college campuses in the US in 1949, in which organised gangs of male students — sometimes hundreds or thousands of them — would force their way into womens’ accommodations and brazenly steal the women’s underwear. They haven’t been a thing since the Seventies.

      In some cases they are supposed to have been some sort of protest against the colleges’ “parietal” rules, segregration of sexes, and chaperone, which attempted to control female students’ sexuality [i]in loco parentis[/i].

          The first ones had a certain amount of wit to them, and the organisers were careful that they should do no real harm while causing great commotion, and consternation to authority. But as often happens with these things they were soon imitated by vandals and brutes as an occasion for exercising illicit power over the weak and for engaging in criminal mischief with impunity.

          Perhaps, but in many of the early cases, they were encouraged and aided by the women. I suspect it’s more complicated than it looks from our perspective.
          Remember that at the time this started, co-ed colleges were new, women’s dorms had strict curfews and men weren’t allowed. It was a different world.

      It is basically going to a place with lots of girls e.g. college dorms, camp cabins separated by gender, with a group of guys, to steal their underwear. At the time it was something the girls themselves helped encourage, which is different from media instances where it tends to really just be creepily stealing underwear for no good reason.

    Dungeons and Dumbing part 20

    Skadi and Danny stood in front of a massive ice wall, which had massive holds that a man could stand on easily, but would be unable to climb between. Like a icy rock wall designed for giants.

    Skadi: You ready?

    Danny: Yeah, how does this work?

    Skadi: Well, you hold onto me, and I climb the wall.

    Danny: What happens if I fall?

    Skadi: Then, you die.

    Danny: Great.

    Skadi lifts Danny into the air and gives him a look of apology.

    Skadi: Sorry, I need both hands, and I don’t trust you on my shoulders.

    Skadi lowered Danny between her breasts so that he was poking out from between her cleavage.

    Danny: Like Wonder Woman and The Atom…

    Skadi: Who’s that?

    Danny: No one really.

    Skadi sighed and placed her foot on the first hold of the wall, slowly she started to climb. If you were to imagine Skadi at a normal size, the wall she climbed would be about 30 feet tall.

    She grunted heavily as she hosted herself up, hold after hold, with frequent checking to make sure Danny hadn’t become jostled from his hold. She didn’t sweat, that was one of the strange parts of her biology, and her body heat gave a feeling that was both warm, but with an occasional piercing gale.

    Soon she reached the top of the cliff and reaching between her bosom, evacuating her passenger.

    Skadi: See that wasn’t so bad.

    Danny: Ugh, I feel like I’m going to throw up.

    Skadi: Okay, maybe it could have been better…but we’re here!

    Danny looked up to see a massive marble structure, a statue lay behind it that seemed to be so large, that it could not possible fit in the area that was granted to hold it. The temple would be large enough to make the giant he stayed with paltry.

    Amber would be remiss to leave Faz with Joe. She barely knows Joe and doesn’t especially like him. And Faz doesn’t know Joe at all.
    Joe and Amber may become stepsiblings in the upcoming weeks/months, but that still doesn’t connect Joe and Faz as their relationships to Amber would be through two different marriages, leaving only Amber as the one connection.

    Comparing Faz to Joe is potentially quite useful for us as an audience because it will help us develop a framework to differentiate between genuinely creepy (Faz) and just plain thoughtless assholery (Joe).

    So, Amazi-Girl has still being doing stuff on her own? I do believe that Danny is the first person Amber has told of her fears in this nature. I do hope that he feels the need to do something about it.

        Good lord, being stepsibs with Faz AND Joe?! I’d go into conniptions every so often.

      I hate to say, but given the timing and his tone, it pretty much has to be the panty raids.

    Is it just me, or did Panel 5 Danny just pop a boner at the sight of Joe and is feeling reallym really disturbed by the fact?

    Just when Amber seems to have hit the wall of unpleased facial expressions, Joe shows up, and we get the narrowed eyes from Amber in the last panel.

    Great little detail.

    I read Faz’s plan as “pantry raid” at first and was all “Hey that doesn’t sound so bad, teeneage boy, very hungry, makes sense, why’d she mention underwear? … oh.”

    Seems to me like there are a lot of unauthorized people on this campus.

    Why not just call campus security and let them deal with Faz: Creep-show-in-training.

      Because 1) Being on campus without authorization isn’t illegal. In fact, there’s little in the way of authorization available.
      2) Amber doesn’t hate him badly enough to want to get him in trouble with Blaine, because she knows what that’s like.

    Amber needs a way to talk to Amazi-Girl. Find out what she’s been doing at night.

    You know, I wonder if AG is just as freaked out by the fact that they’re not sharing memories anymore- or if she’s blocking the memories deliberately…

      There is no way in which this ends painlessly for either of them. Best case scenario is that they learn to integrate well enough that they can share memories and cooperate with each other.

      For some reason, I have a mental image of Danny and Sal walking the halls with what looks like Amber but she keeps switching between the two alters and they even briefly talk to each other. I wonder if this is realistic?

    Why is Amber making Faz her responsibility?
    I’d’ve just thrown the little creep out of my room and be done with him. He’d cross some line somewhere, someone would call campus security, and he’d be rounded up. Problem solved.

    He’s revolting and not worth the energy.

      She’s already known as someone who stabbed someone on campus I guess she doesn’t want to add “the girl whose brother had to be forceably removed from campus for streaking” to that image.

      Plus he’s a minor endangering himself with stupidity and she’s a superhero.

    So her disassociation has reached a point where Amazi-girl is doing intense stuff at night enough to make even Amber’s body (which is used to her activities) feel a lot of soreness, and she has NO recollection of it.

    That’s not good

I hope Josh Johnson is given The Daily Show and is allowed to rebuild it from scratch in his own image just like Jon Stewart got to do in 99. He has built his own groundbreaking form of topical comedy, and imitating the style of others is something he is great at, but better than.
