bows I didn't think it was THAT good. (Good to see some people agree with me!) Voting E ;) Last edited: Mon, 15 Feb 2010 07:41:59

It isn't an ABSOLUTELY F*ING HILARIOUS STRIP THAT MADE ME PEE MY PANTS, but it's good nonetheless - and I don't want to be a party pooper, so E. ;)

I like the way underline is used as a cursor - has that been done on a strip before?
#7	Sorceror	Wed, 17 Feb 2010 02:44:07
mijae: What do you mean by "as a cursor"? Do you mean in the captions, so you know which @ is speaking?
#8	mijae	Wed, 17 Feb 2010 18:47:11
Yep, spot on Sorceror.
#9	Sorceror	Wed, 17 Feb 2010 23:13:29
Yeah, I don't think that's been done before.

Ha, I love how Dudley is late. Can't do anything right, can he? Hahaha!
