Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for March 17, 2010
Transcript:
Ned: Oh, for the love of...detention again?! What for this time, Danae? Danae: Honesty and working within the system, as far as I can tell. Ned: Ok...I'm listening... Danae: Historical figure are mostly men. Right? Ned: Um... yes, I suppose so... Danae: Which means they were boys first, right? Ned: Yes...so? Danae: So...I say " stinky, booger-brained boys" is the correct answer to almost every history question. Ned: This...is...exhausting. Danae: Oh, like it's my fault they don't like standardized answers to standardized testing.

Maybe she needs a HERstory class; cue Victoria?

You still can’t say “stinky booger brained boys in class”, Danae.
Cheriepye over 14 years ago
I never saw the comic.
ejcapulet over 14 years ago
You have to be more specific concerning which booger-brain you’re referring to.

I cannot see any gocomics as of today: some change in the website
elrond1951 over 14 years ago
I agree with Etnier. I’m completely unable to see most of the comics despite repeated reloads. Apparently there has been a change in the site. if it’s not corrected, I have no reason to return.

If you click on the comic, it’ll grow a little bigger and actually show up. Could be a glitch… And Darkeforce, St. Patty’s Day is today no? Unless people started partying a day early!

I got it here
http://www.arcamax.com/nonsequitur
I could see the other comics (FBOW-close to home) but this one didn’t load no matter what I did. So I looked elsewhere and just may stay there if they don’t get it fixed.

Tanya, maybe the 16th is St Patty’s day, celebrated wherever Darkeforce lives?
In Ireland, today is St Patrick’s Day aka round the world as the Paddy’s Day (though mostly celebrated by people who know no better than to drink green beer!). My two guests, Jewish colleens from Minnesota, have gone off to the parade dressed in green, with spiked hair. I think they are meant to be some kind of Celtic warriors.
In Cork, Patty is a either a girl’s name or a tin for making little cakes, known here as buns, now superseded by super-size muffins. Which will be on sale today in the French Food Fair.
Very EU!

Faolain: You could be right, just thought that St. Patty’s Day was March 17th everywhere in the world…

I just hope March 18 is a personal day
Faolain over 14 years ago

“stinky booger brained boys” and men have names, Danae. You cannot just treat them like - like objects!
thirdguy over 14 years ago
Yeah!!!! Just we treat girls that way, doesn’t mean you can do it too!! So go, and take your Cooties with you!!!!!

Mister, please get married soon so your wife-to-be can straighted that brat out!

I don’t know–Danae’s logic about “standardized answers to standardized testing” almost is making sense…
Mythreesons over 14 years ago
Didn’t take me long to read comics today, as I seem to be the only one who got all the ones I usually read. But then I don’t start until 10 or so in the a.m. What comments there were were mostly about no comics! Patience, folks. Just do the usual opening later and I bet your favorites are all there. Comments posted in the last couple of hours seem to be about the comic strip and not the lack of same.
ChazNCenTex over 14 years ago
For what it’s worth regarding the site, earlier I could only see a few comics so I came back a few hours later (AKA now) and they’re all visible. So don’t get your keyboard in a wad.
I like the standardized answers for standardized tests….use their ‘logic’ against them.

Just wave your little white flag Joe, it will be much less painful.

Girls loose their cooties about 6th grade as recall…..
ronaldmundy over 14 years ago
you can pick your friends…….you can pick your nose……. you can’t pick your friends nose. get over it.
pbarnrob over 14 years ago
The “cooties” in 6th grade disappear pretty near in inverse ratio to - um - secondary characteristics, but booger-brained-ness continues, correlated to interest in same characteristics, and their size… Didn’t recall that one until just now, and the exasperation of the young lady at the bloody wipes on her blouse (sheesh!)

Meanwhile Danae is very mature in the female ‘tude department.
policelimit Premium Member over 14 years ago
Danae brings up a good point about the ineffectiveness of standarized testing. Touche!
johnnydoc5 over 14 years ago
Nelly, I thought you had said, “Girls with cookies.” That would have gotten my attention.
Wildmustang1262 over 14 years ago
Danae, you are worst stinky booger-brained child!
NoBrandName over 14 years ago
Well, I like standardized testing, but I certainly don’t think that teaching to the test should dominate the curriculum. So there.
