Is that Javs the deer?
Who sleeps shall awake, greeting the shadows from the sun
Who sleeps shall awake, looking through the window of our lives
Waiting for the moment to arrive...
Show us the silence in the rise,
So that we may someday understand...

Second post...

Postby Jedi Ozy » Fri Mar 14, 2008 1:48 am

This is what bothers me. I clicked on the website, hit F5 to reload and it came to today's strip. I've been trying to get first on posting a new thread for this section, and for some reason, I lack the know-how on the HTML coding to get the strip image posted here. It makes me sad...

But to speak on the strip, again I feel sorry for Felicia. She's trying much too hard here. The one hope is that it appears as if the one Goth has a faint look of kindly welcome at first, and the eyes show no sign of displeasure. Either that, or just good at not showing any unwelcoming feelings towards Felicia, but asking the question of who she is. But she's gonna shoot herself down if she keeps up the rude response.

Right-click the image, click Properties, copy the url to your clipboard (in this case it's http://ozyandmillie.org/comics/om20080313.gif) and then simply paste it in the form here. If you want to make the image itself in the post rather than having users click on the link, highlight the url and click the "IMG" button above the text entry form here. This will wrap it with [ IMG ] tags to make it show up correctly.

I can definitely imagine the "WTF" looks on the others' faces here.

As a few afterthoughts...

Postby Jedi Ozy » Fri Mar 14, 2008 2:09 am

And thank you, Dan, for helping me with that little trouble. I've tried ways before, but for some reason they didn't agree with me, getting the Img button involved help make things easier.

Felicia's suggestion about visiting the graveyard, classic among Goths as far as I know, I've done a few times myself during the night. When I lived in South Africa, it was told that the Xhosa locals had a superstitous fear of cemeteries, that they would not enter them at night.

Personally, I find nothing to fear about cemeteries, because I think of the majority of people who are buried there, most of them were probably good honest people in life and would have nothing vengeful towards the living, that's too much Dungeons & Dragons when it comes to the dead, or rather the undead that make up ghosts and spectres as monsters. But when it comes down to it, I feel serene at cemeteries, since I know most of the buried people were good in life.

As a Freemason, I enjoy finding the burial spots of those who were the same in life.

I have a feeling that Felicia is going to end up with her old gang. Things always seem to come full circle in Ozy and Millie.

For what it's worth I never look at a new topic in this section and think "WOW that person who made that rocks =O!" (not saying they suck either XD)
so don't worry about it.

First to start the thread...

It's not a big deal to me, either. I wasn't concerned about getting any appraise for posting the first. I've just wanted to at least be first in a new thread in the Current Strips section, since they're very important to the forum. There's still plenty of others. And I hope we all get a chance to do a first posting here, to make it fair and kindly for all.

Well I've started my share so usually even if I do find it first (usually when it comes in at 2 in the morning cause no one else is crazy enough to be up then) I'll even wait a few hours before posting it.

Well, to be fair, most of the goths I've known aren't all stereotypical moroseness, but were actually pretty fun froods. None of them were quite as...Felicia as Felicia, though..

With any luck, they'll mistake her attitude for some sort of eager nervousness. More likely though, they won't want some younger kid tagging around (you know, the way kids do), and may reject her on a basis that has nothing to do with her personality - which they may even attribute to her age. Of course, if Felicia thinks it was due to her personality...consequences ensue.

Or, they may get along gothily ever after, sacking Rome and whatnot. Maybe they're just as quasi-poser as Felicia. Or maybe they'll help her become a better person so she'd actually be nicer to Millie (that is, if she weren't hanging out with middle schoolers all the time).

Blah blah, rampant speculation, blah.
could it be that she was the sister of the boy in Kansas who loved the girl with the tattered shawl who was the daughter of the maid who had escaped from the pirates?

She's quiet brave to approach a group like that, I myself would be too frightened to speak when it comes to trying to mingle in with large (or small) groups.

I do kind of feel sorry for her here. though the way the goth in the last panel is looking at her, it looks like a friendly glance.. but the glasses kind of hide any emotion from me, so its hard to tell.

Well if Felicia's current mission in life is pain, then she's on the right track. I winced several times while reading her speech bubbles.
