Okay, so this week no one’s sick, I bought a brand new car, and I’m running on time with everything. Whew.
I will admit that this strip was fun to draw, in its own twisted way. I’ve known many girls like Tracee – girls who always end their sentences with an exclamation mark. They kind of make my skin crawl.
Tracee is sort of like a hyper-Phoebe. She makes Phoebe look positively sophisticated. And that’s hard.
See the CHAMPAGNE-SOAKED BIKINI PARTY!
Though this particular incentive pic isn’t available through voting on TWC anymore, you can purchase the pic from the STORE! It’s only a buck for a set of five voting incentives! That’s what I call a deal!
UGH I absolutely abhor idiots who think spray tan and makeup make a girl ‘fake’. How many women wear makeup? most of them. Probably your significant others, at least on occasion.
It’s really pathetic that people think hair dye and tanning means you HAVE to be a sh$%#y, fake person. That’s probably the most moronic logic I’ve ever heard.
Tracee’s adorable. If not a little ditzy. But that’s okay.
Makeup I’m cool with. Spray tan I’m not, mainly because I think it looks orange and bad. Still, it’s better than a real tan. Less cancer. Less cancer is a good thing.
And I’m not totally sure Tracee is adorable. She sort of straddles the line between adorable and frightening.
They did, I’m sure, but this comic predated this website, so these older comics don’t have much in the way of comments. It first ran on DeviantArt and Smackjeeves. So no one’s commented on this posting of it. But I’m very glad you rectified that.
Also fake attitude.
Fake attitude – the most disturbing fake of all. Why do people fall for it so often?
because it’s often better than real life? At least you *feel* wanted!
Yeah, I just … don’t get that feeling. Maybe I need to work on my suspension of disbelief.
Fake it ’til you make it.
I’m in the same boat. I can’t do it.
Glad someone’s in the boat with me.
Because fake-happy is a step up from honest-miserable.
You’ve got a point there.
Can we agree to disagree?
I have to pull off fake-okay on a daily basis just to retain employment. It is seriously taxing stuff.

Sorry but I have never fallen for a girl with spray tan of makeup and I just think that’s fake
You’re on the same page as me, then.
Brina is a breath of fresh air !
There is a thick line between being made-up and using make-up.
I get ya.
How did nobody catch onto Tracee being “more product than woman” being akin to Darth Vader being “more machine than man” ?

I know I did. In fact, if no one else had made the comment, I was going to.
Ok.
It’s been fun, but now…
It’s time for some horrible plaque to kill every character except Tracee.
The next 50 episodes could be of Tracee commenting on the demises.
While she wears a bikini.
Occasionally The Colonel is slow on the uprake. Now he understands about Tracee.
Probably needing a life-size color poster of her.
You can’t get a character ref for a character you haven’t met yet. I think you are blameless in this matter.
Yes, PLAQUE, not PLAGUE. It works. somehow.
I hate to be wrong and stupid.
Darnation.
Curse by a lack of dental hygiene is somehow cooler.
Thanks for supporting my bad spelling – and stubbornness – and idiocy.
(uh oh. time to stop digging that hole)
You only got one thing wrong. Tracer shouldn’t wear a bikini. She should be removing a bikini. Now THAT would be a good…strip. ; )
Clearly I meant Tracer and NOT Tracee. Auto-correct is awesome… at sucking.
Well, ‘Tracee’ should rightly not be a name at all, so don’t blame auto-correct.
I just discovered my new, most favoritest song !

I see why now.
Panel three looks kinda like that infamous photo of Sophia and Jayne.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Now I want to see this infamous photo.
Have long wondered what fake b00bs feel like. No one has offered a hands-on test drive.
I can’t help you there. I think men with that experience outside of L.A. are somewhat few and far between.
What, screaming, running and property damage?
Tracee is so annoying, she’s setting a new world record! EXCRUCIATING!!! (Does anyone really say “aloha” in Canada? I doubt it.) 😉
No, no one says aloha in Canada. Which is why I made her say it.
Since then, orange has had its day in the sun, as it were.
Indeed. Thankfully orange is on the wane, though it might come back at any time…
Interesting to see that Phoebe held some disdain for Tracee at her very first appearance.
A little. They are similar but not the same.
