"16 or so" is a lot for a webcomic story arc, particularly in a series that almost never has them. I'd be happy if this ended abruptly with the next one and we never heard from it again. If you want to write a story all of a sudden, then make a second series.

Because she went out to get laid, and look where it got her. Buying a vibrator for the same purpose would have been easier and not with her face partially caved in and herself hanging outside a window.

(It sounds like the average day for a wife in Texas >_>)

Since you'd have to be an idiot or a troll to assume when I said "everybody" I meant everybody on the planet, so I feel no obligation to justify myself to you. When the hell did "everyone" become so anal about language?
Lesson learned: My attempts at humor made at 3AM are not as obvious or effective as my sleep deprived mind believes them to be at the time.

You going to back up any further from "Still a bit of an exaggeration?" You seem to use hyperbole on a whim and steadily reverse course, so I'm just curious. Perhaps you need to separate your rage from your forum posts or learn what silent majority means.
And you need to lighten up. Holy shit, and I thought I was anal retentive. Look I'd love (and by "love" I mean I'd rather rub my back with a garden claw} to continue this "charming" discussion, but I've got an appointment to get to. Excuse me.
Maybe you'll reconsider future attempts to "whine" (as you put it) and use gross hyperbole.
Honestly want are you arguing for? So he used hyperbole. Everyone knew what he meant... Is the use of hyperbole really such a huge offense to you?

Oh don't listen to us whiny people, you do whatever you want with this story.
No one whined about the story -_-
No, only everybody including me.
"Everybody?" Go ahead and show us how everyone whined. Any time you're ready.
Ok ok Mr. Technicalities, almost everybody.
Like? Quotes? So far you're the only one complaining here.
]Ok fine!

Nice quotes from a different video thread. I'm still waiting for you to show us how "almost everybody" is whining.
Yes, those aren't from this comic specifically, but they are still referring to this story arc.
Sorry, did you not see the part where I said we are still waiting for you to show us how "almost everybody" is whining? Any time you're ready.
And I did that. Bearing in mind that "almost everybody" was still a bit of an exaggeration. There's also the simple fact that Grey wouldn't have felt the need to comment on the pace of the story if a whole bunch of people hadn't complained about it.
Oohh. So you exaggerated twice and continue to back up when actually asked to support your statements. Nice contribution to the thread.
I'm sure being extremely anal-retentive about pointless things is a huge contribution to this thread as well. Seriously, just drop it.
Pointing out people's errors and requesting they support their claims is a fairly standard part of argument, friend.
Not when you're being this pedantic about it. It's a simple exaggeration, people exaggerate things all the time. You know damn fine what he meant when said everybody was complaining about the story arc. It was obvious he meant a lot of people have been complaining (and a lot of people have been complaining) throughout this story arc, but was just exaggerating it by saying "everybody". You're just trying to be a smart ass about it.
No, sorry, you don't get to throw hyperbole around and be immune from criticism caused by said use. You disliking the fallout doesn't mean it goes away.

Also, you may want to do a little research into something called silent majority.
Hmmmm...

This is quite possibly the stupidest thing to get so pissy over that I have ever seen. In my life. Ever.

:D

Also, I'm one who complained about the pacing last week. There were probably about over a dozen...

... billion people. A dozen million billion people.

I did back up my statements and you scoffed at my evidence because it wasn't from this thread specifically even though I wasn't talking about this thread specifically; in fact I was specifically referring to previous Critical Miss comic threads which makes my evidence even more relevant. So you can't say I didn't back up my statements.

canadamus_prime is right, I wanted to see the comments specifically to see if there would be lots of criticism again, and how people would react to the remark about the pacing. Just look through the threads for previous Critical Miss's in this story arc.

Edit: on a side note, if a name's first letter isn't capitalized, and I use this name to begin my sentence, should I capitalize it?
Thank you.

Can you stay on topic please, you are merely bashing another users post there.

That was the joke. As I said, not as obvious as I thought at the time, but I assure you, the joke is hilarious when you haven't slept in over 24 hours.

I thought it was funny, and well suited to the conversation at hand. Something that should have diffused the situation, but instead backfired. Oh, well. Can't when them all I suppose.

Anyway, as DigitalSushi has declared the conversation over, back on topic.

As disturbing as this comic is, at least it has some actual humor in it, it does help with the pacing. It was getting rather long and slow as we have discussed, and I too am looking toward a resolution to this story line.

I must admit though, I would still have seen this story line through. Mostly out of morbid curiousity.

Don't blame yourself. That argument put me in a rather foul mood so I wasn't exactly in a frame of mind to see the humor in anything.

That joke is the funniest thing I've seen on the internet today, and I blew an hour on reddit earlier.

I'd prefer you guys have the comic move at whatever pace you think it should go, rather than have us tell you how fast it should go. None of us know where exactly you are going with this, so if we wanted you to hurry up and "get to the good part", we could ruin the build up or miss some important detail that you guys originally had lined up.

I don't mind the pace you guys are going at, so please keep going at whatever pace you think is best :)
Yeah, I didn't really have problems with the pacing either. I don't know why everyone else is complaining.
