The jist: The character Jade being heavily into games like EQ and DAoC, while her boyfriend Brent isn't. They broke up over the issue, and never fully resolved things. Hence which brings us to today. She's been having an online relationship with someguy in game, and flies to meet him in Vegas on New Year's eve. The guy is in full plate armor including helm with visor. Comments on her beauty..blah blah blah. She states she can't do this yadda yadda yadda. Dramatic pause..continued until tomorrow.
OK..now for my point. Is Scott Kurtz really such a hack? I mean good god, he will be if what seems so apparent is actually going to happen. 1.) Of course she can't do it, because she will still be in love with Brent. (Apparent enough.) 2.) That the mysterious guy from the game, and on the roof wearing the plate armor, I'm willing to wager will turn out to be Brent himself in some convoluted attempt to win back his woman.

I don't like angsty humor comics. Sluggy Freelance started to get angsty after Torg lost that anime robot chick, and I stopped reading (despite the fact I'm told it got better again after that).
Therefore it's ironic that I keep coming back to a comic called "Angst Technologies" that manages to tell sweet stories (Dante's wife having the baby, for instance) without turning stupid.

Blindy had this to say about Optimus Prime:
he turned her down when she tried to apologize.
No, he just wouldn't listen to her apology! He's playing the callous male who does a surprise turn-around! The best way to complete a surprise is to act unknowledgable!
I've forgotten to read that for a bit.
And I read both. Angst and PvP, among others.

Maybe if PvP were funny And didn't have a shitforbrains artist, I'd read it.
Shit dude, I could get a better plot reading tea leaves.
