Mole, give it up. You still can’t even spell Jocelyn’s name correctly. Nothing you say can be taken seriously. You can deny your hard-on for putting Jocelyn in her place all you want, you’re only proving you’re as bad as Nathan, if not as bad as her overly religious parents.
@Mole204: The first things Nathan did were complain loudly about naked people being in National Geographic, destroy said magazine despite it being school property, boast about his intelligence and status, and then threaten spiritual harm onto Jocelyn. If that is the guy you’re sympathizing with, the problem is on your end.
The cause of this wasn’t Nathan, but Josceyln. Nathan said something that Joscelyn didn’t like (as well as trying to fix her physically) and he got attacked by a bunch of spontaneous reality changes. I’m sure that the next story arc will have a quieter comments section. The plot holes just stacked up too high this time.
But the ongoing problems of Joscelyn are totally ignored the moment that Today’s Opponent is humiliated and/or destroyed by a dozen things that were waiting unnoticed for Main Character to trigger.
No hard-on for Joscelyn, I just think the swearing should stop (to be honest, I’d settle for that in this comic- Joel, Aaron, the rest of them) and that the never-succeeded “get her to realize that she’s made a mistake about something” should have happened.
Try score-carding it: Has Joscelyn ever failed at anything? Joel and Aaron have stumbled, made a few screwups. Lindsey had a full personality re-install. But Joscelyn? Look how the crowd turned on Nathan, but remember that Joscelyn has done as much and more crazy things at school. It’s a Debate Club. Isn’t it a room full of nitpickers and people who pay attention to events and doings around the school? Has Nathan done anything that Joscelyn hasn’t done herself and worse? If Nathan hadn’t been lynched, could this resolution have happened to Joscelyn? No, because Jos would shout them down like the mad dog she is, instead of the freedom-type character that she began as.
“she’s bisexual, swears a lot, and wears revealing clothing?” The swearing is the only part I have any sort of problem with.
She has no problem with anything she’s ever done, until other people do something similar. She’s a hypocrite that way, but the comic never points out that angle. She used to be about helping out her friends, but everything she does has been about tearing people down. Waiting for better things hasn’t happened.
To change Joscelyn would be to depower her, but she should grow a little, and no, I don’t mean bra size.
Lemme get this straight. Nathan is drinking a can of Diet Coke. He finds a small strand of hair on it. And his first reaction is to immediately assume that one of the nearby cheerleaders plucked out one of their pubic hairs and placed it on his soda can in an attempt to seduce him?! What universe is this delusional idiot living in?!
Mole – His original “concerns” that she’s bisexual, swears a lot, and wears revealing clothing?
He doesn’t have a legitimate point. He’s a fucking moron and also a creep who’s probably using his “concerns” as an excuse for him to be a pervert.
My personal opinion about Jocelyn is that I’ve never had any problem with anything she’s ever done. Profanity hurts no one. She’s physically assaulted a few people, but no one who didn’t 100% have it coming and it’s fiction anyway so a few liberties with reality are allowed. Your whining about her is getting old since you do it in EVERY strip she appears in. Just let it go already. Jesse isn’t going to change his character just because you continuously bitch about her.
That just happens to be present and qued up, does it? What were they tempting him with- a walk to a water fountain? What would the skirt have been compared against? Again, Joscelyn rearranges reality to humiliate those who displeases her. If this was what Nathan was doing all along, he’d have doomed himself at some point anyway. The real down point is that his original concerns with Joscelyn will never be addressed after this.

Mole, just stop. Your hard-on for Jocelyn is obvious at this point, given she had nothing to do with the main statement of today’s strip.
Seriously, you’re like Nathan up there. Not a good look.
I know the pubic hair is a reference to Anita Hill, but why tf is that there in the first place?

This kid’s not gonna get laid until he’s 40.

@Mole204 The implication is that one of the girls put a pubic hair on his can. He was trying to look at a girl’s crotch. Context clues, dude.

Just when I think the hole’s dug as deep as can be dug, out comes the drilling array from “The Core”…
Humiliation Conga right out of the school, and on to a sex offender list.
Good job Trevor. Nathan is getting the Humiliation Conga he oh so deserves.
Again, NOT a good sign when we can actually agree with Mother Tucker lol
