Ok, personally I think they're taking the stereotype thing to the extreme. And is it just me or did DCS make a typo with Ozy saying 'Thag'?

Srsly, Ozy is looking girly every strip that he's in that dress. Millie's right though. As a boy I do enjoy hitting things with a club.

I'm not sure what "Thag" means either.

Maybe its some kind of slang that we don't get because we're not cool enough.

Quite possibly! We aren't very cool.

Thag = classic caveman name. It's used often in Larson's comics.

It took me a moment, but I figured it out the same way Osprey did.

Millie's last line is bound to be in the hangman thread someday.

Awesome strip, but not 100% accurate, it's not always THINGS that get hit... there's also cockroaches.

Funny strip. It reminds of an early storyline where Ozy and Millie team up to search for someone untainted by commercialism.

Funny, Millie saying "Me Boy Hit Things With Club" is priceless XD

It could be "thang," but I don't really know.

Good Strip, Though! 8)

*checks strip*

Nope, it actually is 'Thag'.

Although I like the current story arc a lot better than the previous one [I REALLY didn't care for the whole nose hair story thing, as in character it may have been for Llewellyn], this is one of the few strips that made me go 'wtf?' at first.

I'm really loving this storyline ^-^ I'm very curious as to what kinds of things this will say towards gender roles when it's all said and done. I've always loved the unconventionalities that appear in their relationship.

That's why commissioned DCS to draw a picture of Ozy as a flower girl and Millie as a ring bearer not too long ago :D

Am I the only one who notices that the expression Ozy has in panel 4 is really, really odd for him? I like it, but its very unusual.
