Talk:3057: Excusing Yourself

Hey look, a new comic! YAYYYYYYY! DollarStoreBa'al (talk) 16:39, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

Added the starts of a new explanation for people to edit in the future. It's nice being the very first stepping stone. DollarStoreBa'al (talk) 17:00, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

I have to say, I was actually at the receiving end of something similar to the last panel-sequence. At a meeting, I was reading the minutes of the previous meeting (or some other administrative thing that even bores me), and one of the people sat opposite me deliberately pushed themselves back onto the floor (though didn't roll away, content to have made their 'point')... Clearly unimpressed with my contribution. But it was standard meeting stuff that needed to be done so... I can't remember quite where I went from there (it was 30 years ago!), but I probably gave 'a look' and continued. Possibly extemporised/varied my delivery as he got back up and everyone else recovered from being temporarily distracted by his antics. (Which I suspect was planned, not totally spontaneous.) 172.71.26.36 01:24, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

I've found the 'shoes' thing to vary by region and culture within the USA. In Hawai‘i, "ay, no leave shoes on in da house, brah!" In New England, and perhaps in northern-tier states generally, the shoes stay on, though the polite thing is to leave the overshoes on the porch, and/or make sure that the shoe soles get passed over the door mat. 162.158.90.24 05:56, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Absolutely loving the 'citation needed' after the sleep note. --DollarStoreBa'al (talk) 06:07, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Was wrongly positioned, regarding punctuation, though. Fixed that. 172.70.86.157 08:44, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Is it Danish?

I labeled the panel 4 character as Danish, since she's being more rude than Black Hat and Megan is already present. Remind me, are there definite stylistic differences between Megan and Danish's hairstyles that are/aren't present here? --Jack (t|c) 18:05, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

I don't know. From what I can tell, there are no stylistic changes between Megan and the Mystery Woman in this comic. Edit: I've just looked at 2608: Family Reunion. Both Megan and Danish are present. Danish appears to be slightly shorter than Megan. However, I can't really see any difference in height between them. In 1014: Car Problems, Danish is the one reacting to Megan's slideshow. Danish appears to have longer hair than Megan in this comic. I also see no difference in hair length.

I can't see any major differences at the moment in this comic, but it makes sense for it to be Danish guess who (if you desire conversing | what i have done) 19:24, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
