Phoebe’s like a superwoman. She can do anything … except wear tasteful clothes. (She can make tasteful clothes; she just can’t wear them.)
And though summer is winding down, the BEACH DAY WALLPAPER is still on sale for a buck, along with old voting incentive pics.
Why are her virtues infuriating? Well, she IS the daughter of Satan…
Not that hard to figure out, really.
Boo to that. Those clothing look vastly less awesome than the curtain-dress.
You know what? I’ve tried a bunch of outfits on pregnant Puck in the many coming strips, and they all look awful. All of them.
Is it wrong that I’ve found Puck to be cute in whatever outfit you put her in? If it’s wrong, I don’t want to be right. After all, if I was all right, then there’d be nothing left.
Well, if that’s wrong, then we’re both wrong. Because I’m on the same page, man.
I think Phoebe might be a Mary Sue. Is that still a bad thing if you make a joke out of it, and that joke is extremely amusing? I don’t think so.
While I’m here, I might as well ask: are these ads I’m getting for maternity wear just an amusing coincidence, or deliberate?
It’s due to the magic of contextual ads, friend. No coincidence at all.
An interesting concept. In the traditional meaning of a Mary Sue, though, it has to be a self-insertion representing the author. I see more of myself in Puck and Colin, with my various negative character traits distributed evenly between the two.
More like deus ex machina. But which, Singer or Bernina?
Pheobe, you sew and sew!
Okay, a euphemism for many curse words, here in The South, is “Sew and Sew” (sp?), aaaand…, a joke isn’t funny when you explain it. Never mind.
I believe that’s ‘so and so,’ as in any old person or such.
Re: “Why does the word ‘seamstress’ sound vaguely naughty to me?”, it could be because it sounds a bit like ‘mistress’, or possibly you’re thinking of the Discworld’s Seamstresses’ Guild?
It sounds naughty to me too.
