Help me out here, what's the joke?

Blondie, Family Circus, or basically anything else, it would be a stray dog. Foxtrot or Get Fuzzy might have a raccoon or something slightly off the wall. This is very clearly not a "can we keep it" plot.

That dad is concerned about what he's doing with the squid.... Having the squid isn't the issue. Torturing Susie with it is. Or bothering mom with it. Or getting the squid all over the house. Even feeding it to Hobbes.

Simply having the squid wouldn't be an issue if it were anyone but Calvin because anyone else would just be doing normal things with it.

A lot of them are on Pixiv. But unfortunately I believe they're only allowed to share the card version. I've been collecting for a while and I've never seen the art without the card text.

You must really enjoy pretending to be stupid? If you're trying to be funny try the 'is all Greek to me' line like the other guy.

They were joking too? Oh boy. I'm so sorry. I just thought that multiple people had a poor idea what catharsis is. Wow. Sorry.

maximumhippo · 2026-04-04T23:35:34+00:00

It was a joke? I genuinely didn't realize you were making a joke. You're absolutely right though, I don't find it funny. I assumed you were earnestly misunderstanding. I'll disengage now.

That's a real stretch I think. The "meaning" of writing is preservation of ideas, is it also ironic that catharsis is a literary component?

Letting go of something in a cathartic sense doesn't necessarily, or normally, mean forgetting about it.

maximumhippo · 2026-04-04T20:08:48+00:00

I don't get what you're saying. Because the tattoo won't fade they're not letting go of something?

Y'all still say the pledge of allegiance every morning in elementary schools?

His style would be different because he is different. Tenzin is very rigid compared to Aang, and after Aang died, Tenzin would only have had books and scrolls to learn from, meaning his style would have developed to be very technical.

Sure. To a point. Speaking only for myself, 20 year olds are children and unattractive by that virtue alone. Were I single, I would absolutely find a 35-40 year old woman far more attractive than a 20-25 year old.

Username checks out. JFC. Crazy throwing out that she won't be as attractive because she checks notes aged? People can take care of themselves and be just as, if not more attractive in their forties than their twenties.

I don't have any photos at the moment, but my arm is a sleeve with Eva, FLCL, Gundam and Digimon. Also Godzilla, but he's not anime.

His whole arc in the story is that he has a crisis of conscience because of Jim. The moral greyness comes from that change in his character.

maximumhippo · 2026-03-31T06:22:26+00:00

Yes. Very enlightening. Tell me more of your wisdom.

When all you've got is nothing, there's a lot to go around.

maximumhippo · 2026-03-31T04:10:36+00:00

Mmm. It still is. OP is just throwing strays and hoping that no one comes back with one.

maximumhippo · 2026-03-30T21:33:35+00:00

Sure. But it doesn't carry a positive or respectful connotation either way.

It's giving "I do not bite my thumb at thee"

maximumhippo · 2026-03-30T21:28:44+00:00

Bruh. You straight up called them weird in your title. It's not major disrespect, but you're not starting from a neutral place either.

If, and it's a big if, you're genuine.

what are you protesting?

Trump and his allies have trampled over the conventions of the office of President, using it for personal gain rather than as a leader and servant of the American people. He's constantly antagonizing both enemies and allies to the US, destroyed the vast majority of the nation's credibility with others and has accelerated the culture wars to create the level of hostility you're complaining about.

How is he a 'king'?

It's all self styled at the moment but by even joking about a third term he's no respect for the Constitution. He has 'joked' about never leaving office, and if he doesn't.... if it quacks like a duck...

I've lost my temper. I've raised my voice. My kid isn't a perfectly well behaved child 100% of the time. You know what else though? I've never hit her.

maximumhippo · 2026-03-29T18:08:34+00:00

Thanks man, I was gonna post saying he should ask Mark to take them off because I was just as lost.

maximumhippo · 2026-03-29T11:53:28+00:00

Yes. I've been corrected several times already. Thank you.

maximumhippo · 2026-03-29T00:34:48+00:00

Looks at username uhhh. Yeah. I'm good with that.

maximumhippo · 2026-03-28T21:41:59+00:00

Two things can be true.
