i wasnt very confused because i’ve been reading the archives for the past day or so, but your comic is very confusing. at times some of the charachters are hard to tell apart, and your flashbacks, while nice and important to the plot, do come out of the blue in a non-sequitor style, and you have flashback so often that we seem to just jump around on the timeline, rather than progressing linearly.

but you stilll have a great comic, even if it is confusing and ever so slightly pornographic

The comic does not necessarily portray the extent of the mishap. Myself, I’m single and am subject to my own laundry (and care not to look most times as I toss the soiled laundries into the washer), I’m dear friends to many married soles, several with children. The one friend (http://www.mommywantsvodka.com/) has a rather eloquent, if not uncouth term for it: poo crayons: that is to say, you wipe and wipe and wipe, but no matter how hard you wipe, there’s still something there. Almost as if you could write on a wall.

That being said, I would chalk unresolvables on a bit of a different level that blatantly shatting one’s self.

Rene, however, as always, cheers on a wonderful comic.

So does this take place before or after she gets un-knocked up? Is this still Earth-Prime?

If “Pulp Fiction” has taught us anything, it’s that out-of-sequence storytelling sometimes works, sometimes… scrubscrubscrub.

Hmhmhm. I’ve actually always like Johan (even though he can be a callous asshole.) but this makes him seem really sweet and willing for someone he likes. I think he’s hashing this back out at her because she’s rejecting him after they were ohsoclose, not because he’s a bastard.

It’s not that I think it’s impossible for one person to help another person out like this. Like if you had to wipe your grandfather’s rear for him because you love him and he can’t. There’s just no motivation for why HE would do it, when SHE is perfectly capable of it. What person would let someone else do that for them? They’re both weird, because it’s a pretty unnecessary gesture.

And you can’t even feel like he’s a good guy for doing, because you just saw him making her feel awful for the incident.

Sorry, I just think it’s a misstep.

oh come on! really? You’re gonna let him clean your shit-pants Tina? damn woman. I accidently peed myself on a date once so i took off my drawers and stuffed them in my purse after heavily rinsing them. I’d never take them off and hand them to the boy confused! you’re just asking for some gossips, sister

This sort of confirms my suspicion from the last … entirety of this story.Johan is basically a koala. Soft and sweet until you piss it off and then it mauls your face/house.

I <3 Johan.

I used to do this all the time as a kid when on vacation. Something about changing my everyday routine just led me to poop my pants like crazy.

Supposedly this isn’t all that uncommon. Makes me feel a bit better in retrospect, but fuck if I’d tell anyone without the protective barrier of an anonymous post shielding me.

This stip is very valid in the plotline, and people who don’t see that need to look a little closer. Tina placed her trust in Johan in a very vulnerable and embarrassing moment, and Johan was more than supportive of her in that moment. After being hurt by Tina’s response to the note in the previous strip, he gets angry and brings up that embarrassing time to insult her. These flashback strips have been a lot about trust and what happens when its betrayed.
