Did the coining of the term "twinkle-tits" not make it up to you? D:

Anyways, if I remember correctly, she chucked an Xbox at Sharon's head (that was Sharon, right?). This is expected backlash.

Should I feel bad for Erin? Because I feel bad for Erin. You should all feel bad for Erin too, her expression in the last panel is heartbreaking.
Nope. Before, sure. But after several weeks of Erin gone Loco, I cant really feel to sorry for her now.
This isn't really a serious complaint, I mean, it's a webcomic, so it's not exactly a big societal issue, so sorry if I sound a little hostile, but why does being crazy negate any and all sympathy for her? Crazy people do still have feelings. Well, unless their very condition is complete apathy, but Erin is far from that.
ITs not purely because she's crazy, its more how she handled the whole ordeal. Mainly the throwing the XBox and events that fallowed.
I think that was a reasonable reaction, to be honest.

Well, that probably says more about me than I'd like, but still...

No, that was her friend with the red hair.

:( I can't remember how to spell her name...It starts with a M.

Well, THAT explains why she's still hired.

Maybe M is friends with Sharon.

At least she's smart enough not to pull an knife on her boss.

[sub][sub]Despite the fact that she deserves it >.>[/sub][/sub]
At least when Erin pulled the knife on the new girl she gave her some compliments first.

Without seeing the reason why Sharon is mean to Erin, she just seems a bit obsessed.

This theory has already been disproven. ;p

<_< Unless Grey lied.

I don't think so. The only time I think they were in the same room was after the car crash, and Erin's friend wasn't too happy to see Sharon if I remeber correctly.

Besides, Sharon has been mean to Erin from the start of the comic. Not this mean though. It use to be more like, "I'm the BOSS! Do what I say or else! GRRRR!"

Now it seems more like her hobby, or something.

Oh it's definitely true, no matter how much Grey denies it. The same way a tsundere character ALWAYS denies liking the character they're mean towards. They constantly tell the person they love how much they hate them, how much they're disgusted by them, etc, when deep down they're madly in love with them.

So maybe Grey doesn't even realize it himself, and that's why he denies it. But deep down, in his heart of hearts, he knows it's true. I'd say this comic more than anything proves the point. :p

It's been a while since I've started from the beginning and read through all the comics, but I'm pretty certain that Erin has never done anything to out-right make an enemy of Sharon (could be wrong on this, as I said, I don't fully remember). So why with all the hate, Sharon? Why all the nice-nice with everyone else? Methinks she doth protest too much... :3

Why is Sharon art style so radically different from all her other appearances? I liked her taller version, just because it made her seem more like a "royal *****," rather than her new one that screams "erin's offiemate."

Huh, if Erin is supposed to be fat, then this comic is spreading an unhealthy body image. Or something.

Think of Will and Grace and then think of all the times Jack called Will fat.

Subscribing to the tsundere theory.

For erin to "bring out the worst in her", erin would have to do something first, then boss could go insane as a reaction.

This aint what happened, she was already on erin's wikipedia page (so instead of doing her job she spends time looking up erin online?) and summoned erin so she could tell her and act all tsunderish.

Shame for not remembering Molly

Besides that, Suchong looks like she's ready to pounce and tear Sharon's head off

Sharon is GlaDOS? :p

...or maybe somebody just subconsciously and irrationally feels her alfa-female position threatened and reflexively asserts power over the perceived rival, all made easier to justify to herself, by the latter's somewhat abrasive personality.

Hmm, I thought there was going to be a whale in this.

My reasoning:

I had just got done watching footage of a real white whale, then I came here and saw "Ishmael" in the title.

So that's her name. But didn't she call her a nickname too? I think it was Mole, and her daughter was Mini Mole, right?

Also, Suchong is male.

Sorry, but given how Erin has behaved the past 30-40 comic strips or so, I do NOT feel sorry for her. In fact, she deserves worse. In fact, -I- would be the girl making fun of her.

Also, given how sociopathic Eerin is, why is she putting on a mopey face instead of going for an attempted murder on account of a fat joke?
She's use to Sharon's evil by now. Plus, she's her boss,>_> her scary boss. Erin's crazy, not stupid. ;p
