Isn't commie like a psych major or something.

Also, AHA! I got you wacko!
FaceTime didn't exist in 2007!

Gosh man I thought you knew everything about BCB.

Maybe everything most things about BCB, but apparently I still have quite a bit to learn when it comes to Apple products. Good catch though, and full credit to you.

Why yes, yes I am. And I really do get where wacko and Meowth are coming from, I'm just pointing out it is a bit odd and using it to point out why I'm not a huge fan of Paulo and Lucy as a couple.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

I am laughing before the image is posted because its a hassle doing that on my phone.

see, i'm actually okay with this page.

I feel it's kind of the capstone for them - Jasmine's way of saying sorry. Their relationship is over, and Jasmine is at least, in a moment, trying to show a gesture of how sorry she is for everything about them.

Again; I don't really hate Jasmine. I hate her selfish actions, and her existence as an obstruction for happiness.

I have mixed feelings about the kiss. It's cute but feels like a dick move at the same time.

And the SpaceMouse and Ace rivalry gets even better.

on the next page do we get to see who slipped tongue

d'aaaw

Well, the ultimate cliffhanger of this chapter's gone and resolved itself now; Molly didn't make it to midnight. The suspense is over guys, we can all relax and go back to light-hearted digression about some far less tense and plot-hinging moments, like Lucy on that roof and whatnot.

In all seriousness, though, I'm interested to see how the impending JessxLucy scenario will play out, what with Jess's face in panel 3. Because of course, the one thing Lucy ought to hear shortly after leaning over the edge of a building is that not only does Paulo want her 'velvet cake' - as Meowth so eloquently phrased it - enough to confess to her, but also that Jess wants to make a play for it too.

Being a teenager in this day and age is just so much fun.

I think she deserved that kiss because paulo's good by in the hall way was crapy. Im still wating for jess to make her move for velvet cake as well to see the expression on her face I cant wait.

I'd give a buck to see Lucy in the next page staring at that kiss. GAME OVER, man GAME OVER.

All the things that confuse me (therefore piss me off) about this page:

9. Sue and Amaya. Can they just fuck already? Christ.

8. What the fuck is Jess so cunty about over there? Does she do ANYTHING but moan and cry about not having Lucy? She is at a shitting New Years party and the best thing she can do is think about how her fingers aren't covered in Lucy's constant yeast infection while the ball drops? -- the implication is that Lucy constantly has a yeast infection, because such discomfort would validate her constantly being a bitch. She must have a pretty fucking shallow life. Last New Years party I was at I was worried my mom was going to die in a few days, but I STILL MANAGED TO HAVE A GOOD TIME. Come on, Jess.

7. Cliche

6. Cliche

5. Shitty couple. I don't even need to explain why.

4. Speaking of balls dropping, when are Mike's going to? I don't understand this fucker. He has the courtesy to excuse himself from a conversation to look at his girlfriend pretend to be a duck, but is so attached he actually fucking kisses the screen -- which is a level of fuck beyond words all in itself. And now, he is holding onto his phone like it holds within it power beyond all things in this universe. What is my issue? My issue is that he is being courteous, yet seems to be attached to the person on the other end. Maybe it is just me, but I haven't seen that before. Most faggots just bust out there phone every 5 seconds and start texting, even if they're in the middle of a conversation. They'll even interrupt you to laugh at their duck-billed platypus girlfriend. So maybe it is just me, but Mike is seeming pretty unrealistic right now. Then again, I have to admit, he was portrayed as a god damn faggot fairly well, so maybe this is just one of those little quirks that makes him slightly less unbearable.

3. Why the fuck are they standing next to each other? THEY JUST BROKE UP.

1-2. You know that feeling you get when you watch a chick stomp on another guys testicles, and somehow he enjoys it? I feel something similar to that looking at this. Why. Why is this happening. What amount of fucked up hormones could lead to this. At this point, I'm really hoping there was a lot of untold drinking, because you'd have to be pretty fucking plastered to do something this enormously stupid. Not only did one of them think it was a good idea, but THEY BOTH DID.

Dear Jasmine, you missed your chance you bible-thumping cunt. Please go find a ditch and die in it, because Paulo does not love you, he never loved you, and he never will. You did a mixture of fuck up your relationship and be born someone who isn't riddled with horrific problems -- such as a perpetual yeast infection. Why you thought holding out physically like that was a good idea is beyond me. I find it literally impossible to believe that a guy like Paulo would have encouraged such "save it for Jesus" behavior, so I am going to assume it was all your doing. Good job. It is nice to see you probably regret it and are trying to make up for lost time, or maybe win him back... Hopefully the next few pages blow my mind in a better way than this one did and I am forced to eat my words.

Dear Paulo, wow, we talk a lot don't we? I often find myself reminiscing about how you are a faggot. But, it is only after this page that I realize you're not devoid of flaw in the worst way -- you're actually an even bigger faggot than I originally pegged you for. You just fucking broke up with Jasmine, saying there is someone else, and then you kiss her? Do you just fucking drink bleach or something? Please pull the fucking antifreeze out of your asshole and open your retarded eyes. This isn't an episode of Friends. THIS IS REAL LIFE. No. This is BCB, which is more important than real life....

Actually, forget I said anything.

Hey, Paulo and Jasmine, what about context?

If they had some of David's spiked punch, I could have seen that one coming (followed with both of them ending up in the same bed the day after). But right now, things got rather WTF. They just broke up their platonic relationship, and now they are all out of a sudden kissing? Maybe it could be Jasmine's way of thanking Paulo for being so supportive. For someone brainwashed with christian morals, that must be like giving sex.

As someone "brainwashed" with said morals, wut.

I mean there are Christian families that take the rules waaaay too seriously and try to make everyone follow them without question, but there are also Christians who despite leading that life, do give their kids a chance to choose how they choose to interpret faith (or lack thereof). I was raised Christian, and while I believed in the whole "saving yourself" business (which isn't really a terrible thing, there are non-religious people who try that sort of thing too!) - I certainly scoffed at people that somehow considered it meant NO TOUCHING OR "ALONE TIME" EVER. Later saw the results of that sort of insanity, when a couple at a local church decided to conduct their relationship strictly by what the church approves of. They literally married and divorced in a week because they knew next to nothing about their real selves thanks to constantly avoiding time alone.

Jasmine doesn't strike me as a girl that comes from that line of thought, but the more liberal sort of family thats willing to let her live her life

Can we all just take a second to appreciate how happy Mike looks in the 4 panel? I mean his girlfriend is far away but that guy is still happy just to be around friends and at the prospect of the new year. This is just precious.

It's going to be a good year for that guy

lets have another chapter like December

Kaxbe, on 01 February 2013 - 03:13 PM, said:

Another chapter where Lucy's mind is shattered?
Yes please

Paulo and Jasmine's kiss feels like a good-bye kiss to me. They were in a relationship, and now it's over, so they might as well part with the kiss they'd never had up to this point. After that, it's time for new beginnings, for both of them.

Not surprising that Jessica isn't the happiest; she'd been convinced to go to the party by Rachel on the premise that Lucy would be there. I doubt Lucy will show up to the party at all, given there's only three pages left in the chapter. More likely we'll see her thanking Augustus or something like that.

I do believe you will sink with your ship, yes. ^_^

Kaxbe said:

Oh, you mean like two chapters from now?

Why must lucy be tormented? She has ben throu enough. I think mike may be coming down with dependency obsession for sandy. He's no better then lucy at this point.

wacko, on 01 February 2013 - 06:10 PM, said:

Ha ha, what? So basically you're saying they're drunk?

wacko, on 01 February 2013 - 06:10 PM, said:

That explains a bit of the fuck that was going on there.

Not drunk, just a good-bye kiss! Because friends who part on reasonably good terms do crazy things like that!

Tess is imbibing of the wine as per usual, though.

bluefox, on 01 February 2013 - 06:37 PM, said:

He's definitely in a better state than Lucy. While she's been depressed, considered suicide, he's just had a long distance relationship. It's not the same thing because he isn't in the same situation. If she up and died or called it off then he might go down the same road.

Tessa's sex face.

I just dont like mike after he told her he hates her that was a bit much considering the almost drounding and rape and nere deth experience. I dont care if she is obsessive or needs him for a crutch she fuking love's him. What if sandy new about these events ive wondered for some time. So he just throws all the time they spent together away and goes back to how he was wen they were kids.

She does. He told her about Lucy sometime way back when (I'm sure Wacko knows the page number :3) and more recently when he went to her fashion show he told her about how he blew up at her.

He got slapt in the face for it to. Why? Because he was being protective of sandy and dident whant lucy to ruin it. She never made any attempt to do any such thing wen they were kids or at any other point that I can think of. It's like my child hood friend who loves me is a possible threat to my relationship who may do something crazy or nothing at all. I guess mike just dosent whant to take chances.

I guess you could say Lucy will be the "breadmaker" in any relationship she is in.

jennytablina said:

Considering Jasmine is seen refraining herself from the temptation to cuddle with her boyfriend, I'd say she isn't raised with the most liberal values. She should have been an atheist instead, as that would have enhanced the quality of her occasional moments together with Paulo.

what a stupid thing to say

Kaxbe, on 03 February 2013 - 01:59 PM, said:

A more concise way of saying what I would have said.

Referencing some correlation between Religion and sexual promiscuity for the sake of repeating yourself is hardly concise...

Also, taken at face value, it is a stupid thing to say. While in most situations something like this would not be taken at face value, people can be such anally bludgeoned fucks when it comes to Religion that I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he was 100% serious.

It could be that Jasmine just didn't want to rush into the relationship cause she was a freshman, ya know. If Jasmine seriously had more conservative parents then Paulo would have had to go in and ask her father if he could take her out. Conservative Southern raising yeah.

oh look. the characters can be mature about things.

And then we never saw her again.

FUCK THAT make her kill off Abbey and date Daisy or something. It's not like she could do a worse job than that weeping faggot.

I hear sometimes Jerk kills Abyssinian kittens and rubs their blood on his dick, imagining that it is Abbey's.
