Dammit, Sandra, at least when you did things like this in Montreal you were drunk.
Even something this stupid can't be explained away with booze. :-L

Because unless Cammi never sees Pierre again, this little white lie can be pretty easily debunked. And then what? Nothing good I suspect.

I don't think Cammi has ever seen Pierre actually.

The strip was already hillarious on its own, but comments like this only make it even better =))

She only has to meet him once and hear, "No, I was never dead. Who told you that?" Regardless, this is another one of those plots that would be over readily and easily if the people involved weren't so heavily miscommunicating with each other. At least this time it's on purpose instead of due to plot contrivance.

She’s no brainbox, but her rampant stupidity comes in fits and starts as the plot demands it. She seemed to become a fairly competent PA to Senna, and she seems to be better with computers than Tatiana.
Being a fairly competent PA AND knowing about computer and tech stuff does not make you not stupid when it comes to emotional things and Sandra have shown many times that when it comes to emotions and stuff, she's pretty stupid.

In other words, we didn't make her stupid because the plot demands it... we make her stupid in moments she SHOULD be stupid at and I think we've been pretty consistent with that.

Welp, there goes any chance with Cammi - Cammi is the type of person to long term not appreciate this kind of blatant lie

oh well, the dream was real

Yeah, that's two for two of your ships sunk in the MA3verse. The writers must really not agree with you on relationship directions. :p

My condolences, by the way. :ympray:

That assumes that someone can be put off someone else just because they acted like a deranged jerk. Remember that Aaina developed a thing for Sandra on their first meeting — when Sandra’s very first action was to drunkenly physically assault Aaina. And you think a few lies will deter Cammi?

Not forever, maybe, but nobody likes being lied to. At the least she would take it badly that Sandra didn't tell her the truth. It may not be a deal breaker but she'd likely still be upset enough to need some space and a break.

For all we know, Sandra could break down and tell the truth. "Ack! Gah! I'm sorry! I lied!" "What would you lie?" "Because I love Cammi!"

Then they all looked on shocked, until the next comic :p

.....I mean I knows why we're going down this plotline but I can't say for a second it's not going to aggro me because it feels like Sandra never learns. And I genuinely like Cammi...plus sandra's leading the other lady on also.

Just feels kinda pointless imo. Think I'll take a break from the strip for a while.

I'm really disappointed in Sandra right now.
