Comments on: #109 - Sooner or Later http://anderslovesmaria.reneengstrom.com/2008/02/05/109-sooner-or-later/ A comic about relationships in Sweden. Wed, 07 Jan 2009 04:46:30 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.4 by: Tomatocaco http://anderslovesmaria.reneengstrom.com/2008/02/05/109-sooner-or-later/#comment-2678 Sat, 09 Feb 2008 02:21:25 +0000 http://anderslovesmaria.reneengstrom.com/2008/02/05/109-sooner-or-later/#comment-2678 Yay Johan! Good older brother! Hah, this is incredibly believable for me. Someone mentioned that if the genders were reversed, we'd be happy for the guy getting some from an older woman... I can definitely say that if I saw a twenty-something woman grab at my little brother's crotch right in front of me, I wouldn't even give her the courtesy of a warning before knocking out her teeth. Heck, I'm 18, and one of my big sister's friends simply asked her if she would introduce him to me (and apparently she made it very clear to him that she did not like that notion at ALL). It's in the nature of an older sibling (male or female) to be protective. I guess we assume younger siblings are innocent and naive until reality slaps us in the face (looks like Johan just got slapped, poor thing. I do not look forward to that.) Yay Johan! Good older brother!

Things like gnarley and "to the max!" just wreak of excellence! Yeah, I duno. I am still not hating on Bjorn. This is an asshole move in front of Johan and everything, but shit happens. The older guy isn't <b>always</b> the most horrible one. I do, however, love Johan just as much as ever. He is so cute!

Sure, Bjorn is leaning a bit to the sleazy side in this one, but seriously: if this would be about a 15 yo guy getting laid by a 23 yo old girl, everyone would be more than happy for him. Get real. On an unrelated note: Thanks to this strip my mental image of Sweden has somewhat expanded.
