Dullest and most inexplicable comic ever: Nancy

Just keep walking, preacher-man.

Because books.
Oh god, I forgot about Nancy.
he does not want to give me steroids unless absolutely necessary because of my "pre-diabetes"
I'm not sure that's necessary -- you're not diabetic now, and if steroids will clear it up, that's the way you have to go. As soon as you stopped using them, they wouldn't affect your blood sugar anymore anyway. I had shots for Ben's lungs when I went into preterm labor with him, even though I had gestational diabetes at the time. As long as you're monitored, it would be fine.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I find the one where they are artsy mothers and a daughter totally inexplicable--what is it called--9 Chickweed Lane. I can't tell any of the characters apart.

9 Chickweed Lane's got a cat, so I enjoy it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yay for the good news, ita!
The thing that bugs me about 9 Chickweed Lane is the total and complete lack of chins on any of the characters. Okay, maybe one guy has a chin, the beefy ballet dancer, but that's it.
The two I can never tell apart are the mom and the daughter in Foxtrot.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thank you guys very much for the exultation. My first birthday present to my mother will be a (carefully redacted, CIA's-got-nothing-on-me) threadsuck of Natter.
I'm leaving the thread name in, though. She's a big girl. She'll deal.
I hope--omg, is this how she finds out I'm a crack whore???
Matt, if such a thing should come to pass, 51% of me is sure I want not just to hear about it, but EVERY SINGLE DETAIL. 49% thinks ignorance is bliss.

Oh, I love Foxtrot. But the mom and the daughter do look a lot alike.
Any ideas for what to do with maybe half a pound of cherries that really aren't sweet enough yet? I don't want to waste them, but I usually just ... eat them.

I will generously volunteer to hear all the details, if that helps.

But, they have completely different hair. (I'm reading the special editions right now, with little footnotes by Amends, and he said that's the whole reason he changed Andy's hair.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Yay ita's mom!
