"Actually, i'm going to go watch cartoons until this all blows over." nothing more i can say about taht, it's just a great response.<br><br>As for Llewellyn being a stationary object, that kind of thing has appearently happened in Llewellyns past before, remember the great furniture shortage?<br><br>And i think we've all known people who don't seem to notice us, intentionally so. "I think he's almost noticed me." Arr, me matey, locke, arr. We know where your coming from!

Arr. Not being noticed can be good at times. *notes a certain battle in the Thingy thread*<br><br>Llewellyn's lack of action has been another one of those running gags.. the Llewellyn inaction figure anyone? Y'know, he kinda reminds me of Hobbes when he naps, except Hobbes moves around more in his sleep.<br><br>Ozy is good about getting out of the way when things get really hazardous. One notable example is when Millie works on establishing a navel bass.

He's good of getting out of the way unless Millie insists that he stays <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br>Like <a href='http://www.ozyandmillie.net/2002/om20020827.html' target='_blank'>the animal product testing one</a>.

Actually you could argue that they always act like kids and that whatever they do is what kids do. If we base it all on the norm and common things that kids do then Ozy and Millie might as well be sodium based eukartyotes from Globulon Theta. They're different, everyone here knows that. Remember the sunday strip where Avery's nagging Ozy on how he's so serene all the time?<br><br>As a kid i never watched that much tv, still don't. I wasn't good at sports and didn't listen to trendy music. Was i not a kid?

Of course you were a kid, I didn't mean anything like that, but Ozy and Millie have few strips, it seems, in which they concern themselves with what most young children would likely have as their highest priority-- having fun. As opposed to their usual activities which include conversations of philosophy while using a diverse vocabulary. Not a lot of kids do that, is all I meant.

I hope you're not hinting that "conversations of philosophy while using a diverse vocabulary" can't be entertaining.

no, the good doc is saying that thats not what most kids do... i did it, but i had the same social circle that perhaps a small insect would have, at least up until 8th grade, when ppl realized 'hey, that kids not so bad'. The friends i did have, thoguh, those discussions took place, even if not commonplace.
