A MAY VOTING INCENTIVE CAVALCADE!
We’re doing a Tracee retrospective this month! Every few days, another classic voting incentive will pop up! Make sure to vote often and catch them all!
As for this comic…
I know that Daphne really had no place to keep a phone, but that’s nothing new for this comic. Characters have been pulling stuff out of hammerspace for years. Really, it mostly comes from the fact that, as a guy with guy clothes and functional pockets, I never need to think about things like purses or handbags or clutches. And so I never remember to draw them. So then this sort of thing happens.
This is it, by the way. The night is now done. I mean, there’s the aftermath of the following morning and such, but prom night is finally, finally over. Only took two years.
In any power struggle, the side with higher technology usually wins.
😉
I thought the side with more to lose usually wins. Which works here too, maybe?
This doesn’t explain the Ewoks though.
@Pat
George Lucas’s hope of selling millions of stuffed, cuddly toys, explains the Ewoks.
And his desire to appear “kewl” explains the “Jamaican” Jar-Jar Binks.
I would have applauded his removal from the ongoing Star Wars films, if not for the fact his replacements were even more wretched than he.
Let’s not talk about Star Wars. It’s too depressing.
Mama bear is pushing him into her arms.
The cow girl position didn’t hurt. OK, maybe it hurt a little, but the good kind.
Uh Oh.
“Cow Girl Position” is apparently a real thing.
One of the central fallacies of parenthood is the belief that you have any real authority over your child.
The best one can expect to do is lead from behind, and especially at the onset of puberty, at least pretend to respect them. Well, it worked for me any road…
The notification on a phone is whatever you change it to 😉
Sure. I’ll go with that.
My text notification is the sound of a fusion laser from Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri: “Shh-kow!”
Classic. Oh Sid Meier. Such low-res fun.
KevinBaconTime: a very good friend of mine was one of the designers of Civ and Civ II, and I have not only his autograph on my Civ manual, but three of his groomsmans’, which I got at his wedding at the Palace of the Legion of Honor in San Francisco. So there!
You, sir, are privileged. Seriously, though, that is cool.
Brilliant story arc. I throughly enjoyed it. It goes a long way to giving a lot more character growth to Daphne and Tyler. I love that last panel. That’s someone who took a chance and it paid off.
This arc had a lot of focus and characterisation from several major characters that were not the main character (Not that I mind). Such as Tracee and Phoebe. I hope we find out about Phoebes night the next day. And see some follow up on Satan and Tracee. Theirs is also an interesting relationship.
Um..l anyway. Keep up the good work.
I’m glad it hasn’t been too much focus on the other characters for you. I worry about that sometimes, but I like all the characters and enjoy expanding on them. Glad to hear that you like it too.
I can’t speak for anyone else, but the entire cast is fun to read about. Your comic is one I look forward to every week.
Makes me very happy to hear!
OMG
Is the Daffy-Fest over yet ?
I miss TRACEEE !
Hate to tell you, but the next (admittedly shorter) story arc has no Tracee.
AOL!
I once knew a girl in high school who used her bra as a purse.
So yeah.
For the well-endowed, lots of things can end up in there other than just dormant milk-production facilities, if the rest of the attire does not have convenient storage locations, like pockets.
Not sure that applies here. I doubt Daphne could store much in such a manner.
check out wapsi square if you want girls (and older) with lots of room in that ‘pocket’.
I think you would need to be of a certain size that way to effectively pull that off. Not sure it would work here.
I know women who go to dance clubs who store all their valuables down the cleavage. However, that’s a sweaty place (especially while enthusiastically dancing) so it goes into zip-lock bags first.
…Also potential for much amusement if you know their phone number, that their phone is set to vibrate, and time it juuuust right… 😀
That last panel is sublime; Daffy looks angelic!
It took a while to generate that panel. Lighting is really, REALLY hard to pull off with the software I use to make this comic. When you’re working in vector, everything is formula-based shapes and transparency layers. So you can’t just ‘paint in’ color according to what looks right. You have to build the picture up, almost like architecture, with shadow layers and highlight layers and other stuff. It’s hard work but it’s fun to play with on special occasions like this.
Wow, thank you for all your work.
Youth will be served.
True.
This is not only a satisfying resolution to the prom story, but a setup for later hijinks as needed. That’s the best kind of character development (in fiction and IRL!)
Hey, what’s life without hijinks?
Must have good ears if he can hear his mother say that from upstairs.
If his bedroom is at the front of the house, he had his window open, and Mama said that as loudly as she seemed to, then he probably wouldn’t have had much difficulty hearing her. Maybe he just knew that’s what she was going to say.
You can hear even from upstairs if someone’s shouting. I’m sure he’s kept within earshot.
Mom: “Don’t come back!”
Dad: “See you later.”
Dad knows.
Dad knows. Dad likes Daphne, but Dad also has a level of practicality to this. The girl’s been an unshakable presence in his kid’s life for a long time. It’s unlikely that’s going to change. Why fight it?
Dad is a very wise man.
momma grizzly noticed too.
something tells me ‘daddy’ may have a thing or two to say if ‘momma’ pushes it.
sure, he’s quiet, but the quiet ones are more effective when they are no longer quiet than those who aren’t normally quiet.
Very true.
Also noticed this 🙂
So, now all that’s left is Phoebe, Papa Shnorf, Puck, and Colin.
Good point. We gotta know what happened with them! On the other hand, seeing them the next morning will suffice. Will Phoebe be doing the walk of shame?
And I’ll have to agree with EG’s analysis – men probably don’t think as much about where things like the phone came from. Or at least I don’t initially, even though I tend to catch stuff like that while watching movies for some reason.
Women’s clothing is REALLY impractical in terms of storage. Even when they have pockets, the pockets are only about one inch deep and are totally useless. I work with a lot of women in an office that has a locking door. I am constantly opening doors for said women because they didn’t bother to bring their keys. Bringing your keys along for women involves either bringing your purse or rooting around in your purse for them and then carrying them by hand, so I understand why they often don’t. Suffice it to say that I am never without my keys.
I teach two students who are impressive seamstresses and have plans to get into the fashion industry. One of their big innovations is the daring move to put actual pockets onto actual women’s clothes – like pockets on skirts and things. I think they might just become billionaires.
Theories on lack of functional pockets in women’s fashion:
1) Form-fitting designs look like crap when pockets have ANYTHING in them. so functional pockets are excluded to not ruin the ‘look’.
2) Designers want women to buy their accessories – deliberate exclusion of pockets to force the purchase of expensive purse/clutch/bag. Pure money grab.
I’ve heard the theories. But it takes just one company willing to buck the trend…
The theory I heard is that designers think of woman AS accessory to a man. She’s only supposed to look pretty, the man can carry everything needed.
Well, we’ll get to them soon enough. Though Puck and Colin are more a slow brew.
Awwww.
Gotsta have da feels.
I … really don’t know how to feel about this.
I mean, Daphne is NOT a nice person and, at times, not even a likable character. I could list her flaws, but that would take too long and yet … I kinda want them to end up together. I don’t see either of them ever changing and yet they are both tolerant enough of the other and care enough about the other to NOT force them to change into something they are not.
So … yeah … not sure if I support this but glad it happened.
Yeah, I get where you’re coming from on this. But like many things in life, I’m not sure it’s a good thing or a bad thing. As Tyler notes, it’s just … a thing that’s happening. It’s got positives and negatives. Could be better. But could also be A LOT worse.
@Javada- I think you just described Puck and Colin. Daphne really is their kid.
Good observation. You’ll note that from the little we’ve seen, it also might be Tyler’s parents too.
Daphne is a career criminal, she knows where to stash a phone.
True enough.
is Daphne gonna remember she lost a shoe? lol.
I am going to assume that she went and grabbed the shoe at some prior point, maybe before she went to the door. I did remember that she lost a shoe, but didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. Note that I hid the foot in question just to avoid continuity complaints, though.
Enquiring minds want to know:
1. Has Puck regained all of her lost memories?
2. Are we going to see any aftermath of “The Reign of the Hammond Prom Queen?” If so, will it be by the cop who woke up Miranda causing Collin to Hulk Out.
3. Papa Schnorf and Phoebe. . . . .
4. White Castle
5. Not sure, what else is there? Did I leave anything out? Like
6 Who shot Mr. Burns?
7 who shot J.R.?
8 Where’s the beef?
9 Wouldn’t you like to be a pepper, too?
The wedding!
Wedding will happen. But we have a few story arcs before we REALLY get to that.
1) Probably.
2) No, that’s up to your imagination.
3) Soon enough.
4) Not in Canada.
5) You’re getting greedy.
6) Maggie Simpson
7) It was a dream.
8) Wendy’s.
9) No. No, I would not.
Oh hell. Now I have to look forward to Salem’s answer. Besides, it was more fishing for the funny than being greedy.
@Pat
one word: TRACEEE !!!
Let’s see…..
1. Has Puck regained all of her lost memories? TRACEEE !!!
2. Are we going to see any aftermath of “The Reign of the Hammond Prom Queen?” If so, will it be by the cop who woke up Miranda causing Collin to Hulk Out. TRACEEE !!!
3. Papa Schnorf and Phoebe. . . . . TRACEEE !!!
4. White Castle. TRACEEE !!!
5. Not sure, what else is there? Did I leave anything out? Like TRACEEE !!!
6 Who shot Mr. Burns? TRACEEE !!!
7 who shot J.R.? TRACEEE !!!
8 Where’s the beef? TRACEEE !!!
9 Wouldn’t you like to be a pepper, too? TRACEEE !!!
10 the best way to copy an image? TRACEEE !!!
@ Pat
😛
Someone’s been paying attention !
I don’t know there cat. Let’s look again.
1. Has Puck regained all of her lost memories? TRACEEE !!!
Is TRACEEE!!! purposely intervening with Puck’s meals. I don’t think so, she’d be to busy running her little empire at Satan’s house to keep Puck out of her full faculties. Faculties, see what I did there?
2. Are we going to see any aftermath of “The Reign of the Hammond Prom Queen?” If so, will it be by the cop who woke up Miranda causing Collin to Hulk Out. TRACEEE !!!
Does TRACEEE !!! know of her? I doubt it.
3. Papa Schnorf and Phoebe. . . . . TRACEEE !!!
Maybe if she caught them in Satan’s matter bedroom throwing handfuls of skittles, pixie sticks and bottle caps at each other.
4. White Castle. TRACEEE !!!
She doesn’t have the political clot unless she was able to effectively position Howlers to block their entry into Canada. But busty waitresses in skimpy uniform/chicken wing establishments didn’t come onto the scene until the 1980s. White Castle was coming with steam grills since about the 1915’s. Just like the beginning of the designs on Daphne’s dress.
5. Not sure, what else is there? Did I leave anything out? Like TRACEEE !!! Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
6 Who shot Mr. Burns? TRACEEE !!! I don’t think she would have been able to get the work visa required to be legally in the US in order to commit such an illegal act. Besides, I think she’s a bit more under handed to such a point that holding a handgun would be such a bore.
7 who shot J.R.? TRACEEE !!! Your dream girl in a dream sequence, how does that translate to a global experience without Max Headroom?
8 Where’s the beef? TRACEEE !!! I should hippie so, their (is that the correct usage Gecko?) may be a bit of a shortage.
9 Wouldn’t you like to be a pepper, too? TRACEEE !!!
I don’t think that TRACEE !!! drinks cola, soda or pop.
10 the best way to copy an image? TRACEEE !!!
Does she own a Xerox machine?
Tyler you just made her week with that message.
He’s learning.
He just made HIS week too…
Very good 🙂
My phone makes one ding for a text and two dings for an email, so, totally possible.
I guess a lot of people have it set to ‘vibrate’ anyway, so … in a lot of cases, it makes no sound?
Brilliant finish to this arc! The last frame alone makes it worth it. I love everything about it. The lighting/shading and don’t get me started on Daphne’s face! Damn that was a fun ride.
I’m glad you approve. I am happy with how it turned out.
My girlfriend’s daughter, for prom last year and this year (albeit its been cancelled) bought prom dresses with built in pockets. They’re not easy to see, either.
Just putting that out there. 🙂
That’s inspired.
Took me a while to notice (Because it’s harder to notice something that looks right compared to something that stands out as glaringly wrong) but I really love the slight change to Phoebe’s hair you’ve achieved by sweeping it in front of her horns.
I DO grasp the anatomical sense in not having a narrow patch of hair growing between her forehead and horns, or growing out from the horn-base itself, but the net effect has always been that she had extreme M-shape of male-pattern baldness… which is kind of jarring in a female character meant to be one of the most attractive persons any of the other characters will ever meet.
Sweeping a lock in front of the horn covers the bizarre “baldness”. Comb-overs in general may be the sad denial of middle-aged men that fools no one… but THIS fools me enough that it works! Bravo! ^_^
(Referring to the vote incentive, of course. WE haven’t seen Phoebe on-page in quite some time.)
Well, she’s busy. In a sense.
Yeah, that’s exactly the idea behind it. By virtue of the horns, Phoebe has a pretty dramatic widow’s peak. And whatever; there are women who have that. But like you said, I think it’s something most women would try to hide. The bangs kinda did that, but they looked a little weird. They needed to change.
Well, as I said; she looks great in the April vote incentive.
Keep doing that! 😀
I will. That’s the new style she’s worn for years now.
You know, there are people on here who believe that because of Daphne’s Shenanigans think that she deserves only the worst in life. However, she’s just achieved a bit of nirvana, not karma, in that she feels that she’s finally connected with someone on all levels that matter.
This is a comic where patently bad people meet reasonably good ends. Not sure where I’m going with that, but … it is what it is.
@EG
I have always been a huge fan of tales of Redemption.
Even the Bible has one: “The Prodigal Son”.
Though my favorite is “The Christmas Carol”, where the evil Scrooge is redeemed.
That said, I always hoped Kim Jong Un would choose Prosperity over Power, and free the North Korean people from their ongoing horror.
Still, I have no faith what-so-ever that Daffy will ever be a nice person.
Poor Tyler !
Salem, there’s more chance of Wile E Coyote catching the Road Runner (or Bugs Bunny, for that matter), than the idiot of north korea giving up power.
The proper phraseology may be, that idiotic family in North Korea.
Probably not where you were going but …of course the author knows his characters better than anyone else … but Daphne is only teenager, and not the worst teenager I’ve ever known, despite the early trauma of abandonment. Daphne has yet to develop a conscience (and her mom’s no help in that area!) but perhaps a relationship w/Ty, who showed some independence from her by inviting Hannah, will help her see a better way – if only to confuse Momma Grizzly.
But perhaps not; some never do develop a conscience, and anyway how could Good Daphne be funny? It is a burden indeed to be a fictional character.
I think you’re on the right track. She’s on a path to not being super villain, thanks to some of the positive influences around her. Of course, she’ll be conflicted the whole way, so there’s still lots of room for comedic potential.
I’d like to get that kind of message.
:))))))
You and me both. although I’m not sure if 555-HOT-CHICK will answer as a hot girl or Rob Schneider.
Well, it’s not an uncommon message. I mean, even if you’re asking, “We going for tacos now?” someone might answer, “This is TOTALLY a thing that’s happening!”
I once told someone that something was a thing that we were doing any more. And thank goodness, it wasn’t. Whew!
I’d not be surprised even if Daffy ate her children.
After all, her “adopted” mom, Robin did !
I wonder, might this be the first time Daphne is absolutely certain about being loved?
@The Walking Anomaly
You may be right.
I think that he’s forgotten about that time they got Norwalk.
I think Daphne knows there’s actual love in her own household. She knows Puck and Colin have her back. But that doesn’t reduce the effect here.
far, far, back
as in WAY back
You are correct. It’s a lot different from what she’s now got going on with Tyler.
She took a big risk and it payed off big. That’s got to be a nice feeling.
Better than that online gambling jig.
It’s time for some Phoebe. Her absence is flattening my curve.
In due time. She’s … busy. Right now.
Speaking of Phoebe: let us salute the voting incentive for one last time before April ends. Truly it is one for the ages.
Age 18 and up, that is.
That is fully PG-13. Why doesn’t anyone respect the PG-13 anymore?
Because they want to see the fun madcap uncut version of Smokey and the Bandit
This is mainly for EG, and you should feel free to can it, but for a long time I’ve wanted to contribute one of my favorite lyrics:
Ag gabháil dom sior chun Droichead Uí Mhóradha,
Píce im dhóid ‘s mé ag dul i meithil,
Cé casfaí orm i gcuma ceoidh,
Ach pocán crón is é ar buile.
Ailliliú, puilliliú, ailliliú tá an puc ar buile!
Ailliliú, puilliliú,
Ailliliú
Tá an puc ar buile!
Do ritheamar trasna trí ruillógach,
Is do ghluais an comhrac ar fud na muinge,
Is treascairt do bhfuair sé sna turtóga,
Chuas ina ainneoin ina dhrom le fuinneamh.
Ailliliú, puilliliú, ailliliú tá an puc ar buile!
Ailliliú, puilliliú,
Ailliliú
Tá an puc ar buile!
Níor fhág sé carraig go raibh scót ann,
Ná gur rith le fórsa chun mé a mhilleadh,
S’Ansan sea do cháith sé an léim ba mhó,
Le fána mhór na Faille Bríce.
Ailliliú, puilliliú, ailliliú tá an puc ar buile!
Ailliliú, puilliliú,
Ailliliú
Tá an puc ar buile!
Bhí garda mór i mBaile an Róistigh,
Is bhailigh fórsa chun sinn a chlipeadh,
Do bhuail sé rop dá adhairc sa tóin ann,
S’dá bhríste nua do dhein sé giobail.
Ailliliú, puilliliú, ailliliú tá an puc ar buile!
Ailliliú, puilliliú,
Ailliliú
Tá an puc ar buile!
I nDaingean Uí Chúis le haghaidh an tráthnóna,
Bhí an sagart paróiste amach ‘nár gcoinnibh,
Is é dúirt gurbh é an diabhal ba Dhóigh leis,
A ghaibh an treo ar phocán buile.
Ailliliú, puilliliú, ailliliú tá an puc ar buile!
Ailliliú, puilliliú,
Ailliliú
Tá an puc ar buile!
Uhhhhhhhhh … I, uh, I know, right?
@EG
Looks to me like I’m not the only one celebrating !
HAPPY WALPURGISNACHT EVERYONE !
Six Months to Halloween !
BTW, my buds and I made a Special Exception this year.
We usually cast incantations that reward only us, but every once in a long while we are amused to break the pattern.
Myself, Canada’s Satan, TRACEEEE, and hundreds of others on the Brocken performed Special Spells to Crush Corona, and help our Mortal pals.
We were rewarded – spectacularly !
Things will rebound soon, and better than ever. Technology is in the works that will prevent and treat nearly every disease.
Keep the faith, and do not despair.
@SalemKatte, Danke schön! Das ist sehr nett von ihr!
And happy May Day to everyone!
@ChrisH
And Happy May Day to you !
and everyone
(so relieved Walpurgis is over, and I can come out from hiding. tho honestly, real life has been so scary Walpurgis actually came as a welcome event this year)
BEST VOTING INCENTIVE EVAH !!
@SalemCat, I just voted and I feel good. 🙂 Traces is into personal hygiene I see. I know you cats are into that too. No wonder you like her. 😉
@ChrisH
😛
Some magical god sent dresses have pockets 😀
End of a perfect evening — so what’s with the 5-o’clock shadow?
That’s the upcast light from the phone. Or it’s supposed to be.
Did you just reference EGS hammerspace in the commentary? Or is that from something else?
Hammerspace is a general trope from all comics. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Hammerspace
Awesome Voting Incentive !
That little Red Crab is a Dues-Paying member of my Official TRACEEE Fan Club, of which EG has deemed me PRESIDENT.
Glad there’s no crustacean frustration on your part.
In the beach votey that crab is just SO HAPPY! It makes me happy just to see it.
He is happy. He is also poorly drawn.
Is that a five’o’clock shadow on her face?
No, that’s shadow from the lighting.
Jesus, that’s the last time I ever try complex lighting.
Tyler’s dad’s voice is Cyril from ‘Archer’.
He’s spoken so little but, it’s locked in, now.
…and yet, in all that angry shouting and insults… not a single reference to the fact that Daphne is very visibly of a different race… possibly species.
Are the U.S. readers confused by that? The author is Canadian; That’s how WE roll. This is OUR reality.
But sure, keep chanting “USA! USA! USA!” if it helps you sleep at night. >_>
Well, it’s not always how we roll. I’d love to say I haven’t seen bigotry, racism and prejudice in Canada but I have. It’s lessened, certainly, than in many places in the United States, but I don’t think we should get on our high horses because, well, our horses aren’t that high. They might be a little higher than the American horses, but let’s face it: everyone’s on pretty low horses as it is.
@EG
I’m sick of Specie-ism.
“Cats aren’t friendly.”
“Cats are lazy.”
“Cats are selfish.”
“Cats are headstrong.”
Yeah, it’s all true. But shaddup !
Humans are not perfect, either.
‘Cept TRACEEE
I think the most dramatic difference is in SYSTEMIC racism.
Sure, we’ve got some (quieter, less organized) bigots up here too (I myself am aware I prejudge people of the USA… a bit) but by and large, we haven’t let them run the country and set policy for the last couple centuries.
Yeah, I hope so. I really do.
I can acknowledge that I have some unavoidable bias (towards the “Canada is way less racist than the USA” belief) resulting from my own life experiences. Every human does to some degree. Let me share my frame of reference:
I had what in retrospect was a wonderful upbringing, in an upper-middle-class household, with most excellent parents (so not super-privileged or rich, but certainly quite comfortable without any of the burdens of real poverty, not that children can really tell the difference).
Unfortunately I did not live up to all their hopes, made a large number of poor life choices, and as an adult have lived (and continue to) well below that standard of living I was raised in. At my worst, I spent about 8 years living in a neighborhood not unlike Puck’s… except that the house was converted by the owner into a rooming house to rent the individual bedrooms, attic, and basement out to 6 different tenants, most of whom were paying their rent with welfare checks (as was I, while I went to school for my certificate, and gradually built up a client base as a PSW that would let me get off the dole altogether –which is how you use that system properly). The more gainfully employed tenants I’d originally moved in there with, decent folks who’d fallen on hard times and were rebuilding their life, moved out as soon as they could over time, and folks more like Puck’s crack dealer neighbor would move in to replace them because the landlady hated an empty room, and didn’t have to live with the scumbags she found to fill them with herself. It’s an intensely uncomfortable feeling to live in a place where the dangerous criminals are already on the wrong side of your locked front door. I have a mild form of PTSD as a result of those 8 years, and I still have trouble sleeping through the night.
My point was, I’ve lived in Ontario 4 decades, and met far more criminals and other assorted lowlifes than I ever wanted to, and this is the conclusions that can be drawn from my life experience (which is a modest sample size as best, but nonetheless):
1. All criminals here are Caucasian, and locally born. 100% of them. I have met not one exception in 42 years.
2. All panhandlers and homeless people are Caucasian, and locally born.
3. All persons with a serious drug addiction (i.e. exempting nice folks who smoke a harmless amount of weed on the weekends, or have a beer while they watch the game on TV) are Caucasian, and locally born.
4. All immigrants, of whatever shade of skin or country of origin, are decent, hardworking, honest, and law abiding people. They can be a little strange, or have some habits I find annoying, but only in superficial, ultimately harmless ways.
I’m sure, statistically there must be exceptions to these “truths” I have experienced, but I can say in all honesty, I’ve never met any in 42 years. To my ears, people spouting racist stereotypes to excuse their own behavior sound like complete imbeciles whenever they open their mouths, and I question the competence of whomever allowed a microphone to be put in front of them.
You don’t need to agree with me (anyone at all reading this) I just wanted to let you know where my personal viewpoint comes from.
I have frequently talked about how my time teaching at a school for the disadvantaged made me horribly racist against white people. But you are 100% correct. It’s just the unique landscape of Ontario, where there is an established welfare class of ‘white trash’ that have fallen into a multi-generational morass of poverty, substance abuse and sorrow. This community is old, and will not change.
Anyone who isn’t white is likely an immigrant or the descendant of immigrants, and said immigrants came to the country with high hopes and big dreams. When I taught students at this high school for the disadvantaged, the white students would not try, and would fundamentally not understand how trying could ever benefit them. The students of colour tried as hard as they could. Even if they were refugees with very few resources, they had parents that they did not want to disappoint. Their parents had gone through real horrors to get there, and they weren’t going to let them down.
Or a bit shorter:
Immigrants are people who had to expend enormous effort to come here, because their country or origin was holding back their full potential, not because they were holding themselves back.
The full legal immigration process is actually a pretty thorough filter for quality of people; we are getting some of the world’s best. Even those who came via the Refugee system are still those who had more integrity than to face violence with violence, and more determination than to look at their crap life, lie down in filth, and drink themselves to death. Refugees aren’t the bottom of their country’s barrel either (just a bit poorer than the full immigration process crowd, usually) and still resourceful and determined enough to get themselves to here.
By comparison… the worst of the worst that OUR country produces… well, they’re already here. :/
Indeed. Well said.
@Hiboron
LOL !
Good Call !
Daffy would prolly cinch a role as “THE WOLF GURL OF HAMILTON.”
Likely goes thru a case of Gillette a week keeping the follicles tamed.
That’s probably the sweetest expression I’ve ever seen on Daphne’s face…
Good! That’s what I was aiming for.
