<a href='http://ozyandmillie.org/2005/om20050907.html' target='_blank'>Millicent Machiavelli Mudd</a>.<br><br>Someone refresh my memory on who Machiavelli was?<br><br><br>And why is Avery talking to Felicia in panel #1? He's a nerd, she's a "cool" kid.....I'd think she'd avoid him like the plague....<br><br>I think Millie would go for Hobbesianism....that seems so much like her.....

[Dr. Doog]

they're talking because thats what happens at the beginning of the school year.

[TyVulpine]

but wouldn't that hurt Felicia's reputation, if the other cool kids saw her talking to Avery, knowing he's a nerd like Ozy and Millie?

Actually Avery <i>is</i> still trying to be cool, just an ironic, "I'm so cool, you don't even know I'm cool" kinda cool. </Strong Bad quote> He and Felicia seem like they'd get along well.<br><br>Oh, could somebody change the link so it points to the strip and not the home page please?

Felicia in a tank top and Avery in what appears to be a dress shirt. And Millie between philosophies. And apparently Millie was a Machiavellan last year <!--emo&:wag:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ailwag.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tailwag.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Hobbesian? As in "Calvin & Hobbes"?

[IceDragon]

No, Thomas Hobbes

[ShadOtterdan]

Wow, I didn't know that. Although whenever I read Hobbesian, I can't help but think hobo.

[Tom Flapwell]

Hoo, I trust that neither Felicia nor Avery will stay dressed like that all year. Felicia's look is over-the-top (no pun intended), and I can't tell what Avery has on his head, but he brings to mind a decade that is not even retro-cool now.<br><br>If Felicia bothers to talk and listen to Millie, I wouldn't put it past her to listen to Avery. At least he doesn't despise her.<br><br>I also hope Millie doesn't choose existential nihilism. If she means what I think, it's not much fun.

[NHJ BV]

Felicia looks like Anastacia <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
