    Sorry, grammatically, it should be “me”…since it is the object of the sentence…

    I have to suspect P’s fed up about putting itself last and is moving on to Pi. P’s looking for a close relationship with a smaller letter, and is feeling really capital about it, too!

    … and Pi’s a number… and I do think it’s fair to note that Mi only thinks of itself!

    With all of the really clever comments already posted, I’m feeling a little quippled here…

    I’m guessing that P doesn’t know about just how much time Q has been spending with U, right?

    It’s not surprising, up here in Canada the PQ’s are always wanting to separate.

    To Varnes – No, I follows the linking verb “is” and is thus correct being “I,” not me. Sorry, but the strip is correctly written. ;-)

    Apparently it’s a QUIP. And P can’t see U because I is blocking his view So I guess U&I are absent during this discussion. You just can’t trust vowels!

    And I also suspect that a User Interface (UI) is important to facilitate communication. Maybe the absence of UI is the reason they are breaking up.

    I don’t understand very many of these symbols. Do you have a web-site that lists them, or do people make them up as needed?

    … oh! and Pi is pronounced “pie” while Mi is pronounced “me”… (and Ti is tea)… just the vagaries of the english language, I guess!

    Baldy … just a fancy smiley. ..

    a sideways face like the familiar :) or :-)embellished with a degree sign for a nose cos this site allows ALT characters.

    the J is a quirky smile. Just a way to dress up the old emoticons.

    That symbol is supposed to be a face. If you tilt your head sideways to the left, you can kind of see a face with the bottom of the J as a nose, I think.:°J

    Thanks for the correction guys…And I think I seem to remember being corrected on that by a friend long ago..Pesky to be verbs…. So would it also be “They’re we”? Sounds French…..
