I'd also say that Brooke doesn't sound particularly horrified when Nina undresses her. While she isn't particularly happy about being denuded, she isn't weeping or screaming. Her comment is the verbal equivalent of shaking your fist.
Early to rise and early to bed makes a man healthy and wealthy but socially dead.

Quite simple: it's supposed to be funny BECAUSE it's not real life.Eris Lobo wrote:so I don't see why it's supposed to be funny in the strip.
It's the same reason why it is funny that in "That 70s show" Eric always will remain the target of his friends' gags and remarks, Kelso is always being ridiculed about his brainlessness, Fez is.... Fez, Jackie is a snob and Donna is the subject to her torments.
Put these together in real life and you'll have a fight after three remarks, and the people never speak to eachother again.
So to overuse a commonly abused statement: Lighten up a bit... "It's just a comic"

It's Jackie, not Becky. And I wouldn't say she torments Donna, she annoys her at worst. But I digress.

Thanks for the correction.
Couldn't come up with her name, all I knew it sounded like "acky".

The thing is, Eric comes out on top a bunch of times, especially because he gets Donna for most of the show's run. That's hardly a total butt-monkey....more of just the butt of jokes. But then, everyone on that show is the butt of jokes at times, the show just happens to focus on Eric most of the time.

Yeah... I don't know about everyone else, but if I had a tall, hot redhead as a girlfriend, I wouldn't complain that much about my idiot friends and their idiot pranks
