Thursday, November 8th: Millie's Mind

[cheesecake]

More like you'll take a leak anywhere if you get drunk enough.

[TyVulpine]

Um... I see my nose all the time. Most people probably do but as Millie said, we stop noticing it.

Not really. Stare straight ahead. Can you see your nose? No, you can't, it's not in your field of vision. It's not big enough. But a fox (or any predator, really) can see their's, since it does stick out quite a bit. The only way you or I could see our's, is to go cross-eyed, or close one eye, and then look.

Um, yes I can. Maybe you just have a really tiny nose. Or I have a really big nose :X (This is quite possible - I am part Armenian)

[TyVulpine]

I can barely see my nose. So, yeah, maybe I do have a small nose. Oh, well. Maybe that explains why I can't smell very well...

[Fritz]

I can see my nose just fine :O

[TyVulpine]

Can you SEE it, or just see a faint outline? (I see just a faint outline of my nose...)

[Fritz]

Uhhhh both.

[Tom Flapwell]

You see little more than a faint outline if you have both eyes open. You see more of your nose if you close one eye.

By "you," I mean those of you who have humanoid noses.

Most of the time, I don't see a particular Panel 3 phenomenon. This is an exception.

[Richard K Niner]

The nose is there, it's just in your periphery vision. However, most perceptual processing completely ignores the part of your visual field that it takes up (same with your cheeks and eyebrows). It's entirely possible that anthro foxes would have that perceptual blind spot as well.

[Tabris_The_17th]

Kind of a moot point after all this nose talk, but it really was cute to see Millie scratch herself like a real fox ^-^ Giving the top of the panel action lines like that just makes it all the more funny.

Argh! You've made me think about my eyebrows! (It's kinda like "thinking about breathing" apparently...)

[Hanging Tree]

I find it cute that despite her being Anthro, she still has her moments where her primitive nature takes over. Although I wonder if it's an involuntary thing; I mean she could of easily used her hand to scritch behind ear. But since shes a fox her mind just automatically reacts as a feral fox would and lift her hind leg. That must be embarrassing when your in public although given the type of individuals I'm sure it would be common.

Maybe she used her foot not because she is a fox but because she is weird.

Mwahaha!

I didn't notice it until you mentioned it, but you're right, that does add to the hilarity.

Can't wait to see how (or if) she'll admit defeat to Ozy.

[Jedi Ozy]

Anybody else who keeps track would also notice that this makes it the second time she's done that gesture of scratching with her foot. The first being the guest strip by Bill Holbrook, which amusingly gave us a revelation about Ozy's hat, too.
