Hilarious comic. Good job as always! And I didn't really expect Kevin to be that... icky. I hope Kevin is not based on any guy that Robin knows personally!

I kind of want a Myoopi plushie. A soft squishy one, not a hard carnival-prize one.

It ain't easy bein' cheesy, is it?

Seeing this comic makes me laugh. And lonely. And pretty disgusted (close-up of Kevin's mouth). And maybe a little hungry.

*chuckles* That was a good strip. The "GAH?!" panel was priceless.

That was so fun and so true! Ah, the disillusionment that hits you when you realized how warped shoujo characters are from reality.

Of course we all know that Nina likes Kevin and her crush will be rewarded when it comes to light that he was her lover from a past life, which will cause him to fall head over heels in love with her unconditionally.

Ah, Shojo...I'm glad that my girlfriend doesn't have any illusions like this. It'd be hard to measure up to, and I'd probably end up hating myself after a week or so. Oh, and great job, Robin!

That would be pretty cool. A nice Myoopi plush that can shoot candy when you squeeze it. Oh, and sound effects!

I was thinking something more projectile. But that works too.

Nice! Cool

So shounen had it's turn to be made fun of, now it's shoujo's turn! Twisted Evil Very nice comic. Just comes to show all you girls out there what you get for expecting every guy you fall for to be the "perfect guy." Wink

It was sweet, but where's the story of why these two are together? Where's the character development? Where's my cheese and onion Quavers?

.false! I mean picking your nose with the dorito hand?!?! I don't think so. That nacho cheese burns like hell and we all know that


Uhm I dont think so, has anyone ever had milk shoot out of their nose? For serious? That stuff burns more than soda you wouldn't think so but milk has some secret ingredient that feels like the inside of your nostrils are being ripped out by schizo badgers and that is NOT an exaggeration, you haven't experienced pain until milk comes out of your nose. It ruined my childhood.
