The latest comic, The Mystery of the Ivory Charm, can be found here. So what's your reaction to it, people?

"We've been sleeping together for a while, so I consider you a friend."

How bad is iced tea for a keyboard?

If there's one thing I learned in college, it's that there's no such thing as two ****-friends.

I'm not certain that he actually hung up in the first place.

I don't think he hung up in the first place either...and wow, he is making a dumb move, but Izzy is too...

Just how stupid is Tanner? You don't risk a good thing by calling your skanky stripper ex-girlfriend. Even I know that and I'm a freaking moron.

I was kinda "meh" on this episode, until I saw the preview sketch!

I. Am. Psyched.

This may be annoying.

OTOH, it may be helpful.

From the footer to this strip, it appears you have changed your name to 7ferrett. I kind of think you haven't, but rather someone hit home-7-end-delete-7 in the footer.

A type of mistake I make frequently, so I sympathize.

Oh, and you got websnark'd again today. Which is why I came to be looking at it again today, and since I'd read it already yesterday I happened to notice such irrelevancies as a misplaced 7.

I don't understand the title. Is this another reference that's over/under/beside my head?

The titles are all taken from old Nancy Drew books.

Wow...Tanner really is an idiot. A *sweet* idiot, but a Grade-A prime tenderized sirloin idiot with a great big fat target painted on his forehead. And his wallet, too.

Izzy has Ann pegged right. If Tanner is not capable of understanding this, he's doomed and he'll end up losing everything good that he has. I've seen similar things happen...with one of my nephews, no less, who is another prime, Grade-A, corn-fed idiot.

Um. So. Nancy Drew, eh? Uh. Yeah.

Izzy is pretty stupid too...Tanner is as loyal as a small puppy, and if she wants him to be done with Ann, she totally has the power to make that happen...if she would just admit they were dating and say "no boyfriend of mine is allowed to call Ann, or take her calls" well, then Tanner would soooo jump to, and do whatever Izzy wants...that seems fairly obvious to me...

Are we ever going to get to hear this mysterious Ann? We caught a couple of glimpses of her in the early days of the strip, but we've never actually heard her talk.

there's something about the way that ending played out and his expression.. more like he was using Ann, to get Izzy closer to admitting that he and Izzy are a relationship.

he's incredibly naive, but he seems to have some basic cunning, and was being coached several episodes back as I recall...
