Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for June 16, 2015
Transcript:
Ned: Ok...what's this about? Kate: Danae says her room is now a think tank for B.O.S.S. Uh...what's "B.O.S.S."? Kate: The benevolent order of superior sisterhood. Ned: And what is it? Kate: A lobby bent on ridding the world of boys. Ned: Ah...so "benevolent" is just being ironic, eh? Kate: Well...not intentionally.

The issue here is menstruation, and Danae will most likely have the skill to go nuclear on any guy who ventures too close. (Note the irony also of both terms with men in the name.)

Doesn’t that mean getting rid of her Dad too?

“in both cases you have to appeal to the very people you’re trying to purge to act against their own self-interest.”
GOP seems to have no problem doing this with poor white folks? Trick seems to be to throw them a few meaningless bones like God! Abortion! Entitlement! Guns! and they seem content with just being better than “those people”……….

It is amazing how quickly politics and race emerge in the comments of good natured comics. I am not saying it is a bad thing. It just shows what is foremost on people’s minds.

Danae will wind up with a jerk who abuses her.

Welll, it’s a counterpart to “G.R.O.S.S.” from Calvin and Hobbes, which Wiley must have had in mind.

Then there was Al Bundy and his “NO MAAM” club: “National Organization of Men Against Amazonian Masterhood”.

Her attitude suggests MOSS (Malevolent Order, etc.) would have been more accurate, but without her ironic misuse of “benevolent” the strip would have been too sequiturish.

Danae’s B.O.S.S. vs Calvin’s G.R.O.S.S. would be epic, like Batman vs Superman or Godzilla vs Mothra.

I’d rather see Danae go up against SPECTRE, THRUSH or even KAOS.
