Re: Tuesday, January 4, 2000: Mindless trend worship
It was startling for me to realize that education, like any soft science, is highly susceptible to trends; different theories and ideas drift in and out of fashion. I suppose that's only naturel -- it seems to be, on a pretty basic level how humans, collectively, think -- but I get an upsetting sen...

Re: What should be the official song of DC?
Notice that doesn't say anything about pants. So hand those pantsless pants the pants over.

You know, I think both their appearances are enhanced by the swap.

Re: Wednesday, December 29, 1999: Pillow fort
Remember Y2K? How the computer glitch was going to, I dunno, launch nuclear missiles at random and stuff?
Maybe on some level I wish more had happened. This strip would seem a bit less dated if everyone hadn't forgotten the phrase "Y2K" was ever in the lexicon.

Re: Thursday, December 30, 1999: Y2K Hype
This is not actually a line from any episode of "The Simpsons." So if you see it at some future point, you'll know they ripped off my little homage.

Re: Friday, December 24, 1999: Happy Xmas 1999
I suppose I made some version of this same point in a lot of my Christmas strips, back when I still did those (I haven't in a while). It's not a terribly original or insightful point, I suppose, pointing out that the holiday season has become highly commercialized but within individual families sti...

I don't remember if I was annoyed with some segment of my audience for some specific reason here, or if it was more of a general statement.

"Real estate" is, of course, a line from the "Peanuts" Christmas special.

From this I have determined we have exactly twelve members who give a pants. So, yeah, side benefit.

Theory: Ms. Mudd is mostly estranged from her family. When they send Millie gifts at all they send money because they honestly don't know much about her.

Where the hell are her pants?
And Arlo wins the prize.I suppose this is "a piece of blue string," revisited. The original was better.

You know, I wish I'd done more to explore the fact that, apparently, Avery has focus groups.

Re: Tuesday, December 21, 1999: Signs of the season
I believe that Santa Christ was alive and once roamed the lands with gifts for all the worthy. But he died for our sins and now is engaged in an game of beer pong with the devil that will last until Judgement Day.
