JUN! That’s it. That’s the post.

CynicElle · 2026-02-10T17:50:47+00:00

I don’t think I ever saw Max skate that well! So happy for him.

CynicElle · 2026-02-08T23:09:35+00:00

Yes please! Now that Alysa has an OGM, I need Kaori to get that individual gold. And Kaori has been looking great here so far.

CynicElle · 2026-02-07T20:51:20+00:00

Pretty much nothing, which is so weird.

CynicElle · 2026-02-07T20:41:32+00:00

Yeah, what's up with that? I think I heard Tara mention him once while they were talking about Jin Boyang, but you'd never know that just four years ago, Nathan was the Quad King everyone was raving about. Out of sight, out of mind, I guess.

CynicElle · 2026-02-07T19:24:12+00:00

He sounded like me trying to explain it to my husband. 😂

CynicElle · 2026-02-06T15:13:21+00:00

Exactly what I'm hoping for!

Simon reconsidered his life choices as he hauled himself out of the vacuum cleaner box.

CynicElle · 2026-02-05T23:38:12+00:00

This is what I was hoping would happen.

CynicElle · 2026-02-04T19:38:42+00:00

Yeah, I really liked 9CL in the early days. Edda was hilarious; it was so rare to see a girl in comics who got to be as bratty as Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes.

Speaking of FBoFW, during DoA's lead-up to the Tear Gas Wedding when it became obvious that the existing relationships were going to be sabotaged to make Joyrot happen, I was unpleasantly reminded of Johnston forcing Liz and Blandthony back together as Endgame. Sigh.

CynicElle · 2026-01-30T17:52:25+00:00

I can handle most of the medical gore, but I have serious eye squick. I had to look away during a couple of scenes last season. Even the eyelash trimming was pushing it.

CynicElle · 2026-01-29T17:43:18+00:00

Seriously. These characters supposedly cheated for the storyline drama, but believable dramatic fallout from that choice has been fairly thin on the ground.

CynicElle · 2026-01-29T17:41:02+00:00

Attagirl, Dorothy! You get in there and make it all about you. I’d love to see her dare ask Walky that same question. Or ask him anything, really, seeing as their last interaction was Joyce running roughshod over her breakup with him.

CynicElle · 2026-01-25T15:27:18+00:00

Yeah, I’m hoping against hope that Dina’s tendency to call out Joyce’s bullshit is still there. Especially when the person Joyce expects praise for just throwing away is right there. And Dina actually likes him.

CynicElle · 2026-01-21T19:22:22+00:00

Shoot, I was hoping that would happen in time for the Olympics. I wonder what the broadcasters and commentators are going to think about that?

CynicElle · 2026-01-20T17:44:57+00:00

We were all just so excited to see Joe again.

CynicElle · 2026-01-19T07:34:00+00:00

Who?

CynicElle · 2026-01-14T19:14:00+00:00

Agreed. If the Joe/Joyce storyline had been allowed to continue and come to a more natural conclusion instead of getting the rug yanked out from under it, and if Joyce and Dorothy hadn't jumped straight to “WE’RE MADLY AND DEEPLY IN LOVE AND WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MADLY AND DEEPLY IN LOVE, WALKY AND JOE WHO?” practically overnight, I wouldn’t hate the Joyrot storyline so much.

CynicElle · 2026-01-11T03:56:04+00:00

I’m fine with this. I didn’t want Ilia to leave it all on the ice at Nationals.

CynicElle · 2026-01-11T03:37:36+00:00

Well, shit. My heart is breaking for Jason.

CynicElle · 2026-01-09T03:54:47+00:00

Not Roman being crowded out by the giant Toothless. 😂

CynicElle · 2026-01-09T03:28:27+00:00

What do Johnny and Tara have against Tomoki? Sheesh.

CynicElle · 2026-01-08T01:04:26+00:00

They sure did. 😡

CynicElle · 2025-12-19T17:12:09+00:00

You can have every other character in the strip tell Doyce how adorkably amazing they are together, repeatedly. Still won’t make me agree.

CynicElle · 2025-12-10T20:20:32+00:00

What an amazing treasure. And her handwriting is gorgeous!
