Yeah. Evie’s complete inability to take a hint had her pissed before she had a chance to notice Melon’s presence. ---

I think Faye’s dog analogy is a pretty accurate description of her own situation… ---

I seem to have forgotten (understandably, given the point that Jeph himself mentions in the commentary)…when did Dale start working at Coffee of Doom? ---

[Forever ago](http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2476) and only occasionally referenced since then in typical Jeph style. …back when I liked the drawing style better for some reason I can’t put my finger on. ---

The May as the AR assistant arc was the best thing he’s ever written, IMHO. ---

I had forgotten that Emily is now working at Coffee of Doom, and totally did not recognize her last Friday when she and Dale did the face-off. I would have enjoyed it much more if I had (Emily and Dale are probably my favorite secondary/tertiary characters). Jeph has GOT to stop changing Emily’s hair. Aside from that, I only recognize her because she’s really tall. When she’s next to extremely tall Dale, I lose that signifier too. ---

Dale looks weird without his mustache. ---

> [@Ukulele\_Ike](#): > > Jeph has GOT to stop changing Emily’s hair. Aside from that, I only recognize her because she’s really tall. When she’s next to extremely tall Dale, I lose that signifier too. I recognize her by her eyes and hair color. She’s about as Asian-looking as Jeph is willing to draw without risking a racist depiction. It also helps I remembered her hairstyle from last time, nearly [100 strips ago](http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3575). Oh, and I use the [Questionable Extension](https://questionablextensions.net/), because every other webcomic I read tags their characters in some way. Still, the last time I had trouble recognizing Emily was back when he was changing everyone’s hairstyle. She and Dora looked alike for a while, when the art quality slipped. ---

I’ve been to the San Diego Zoo. They have bathrooms with flush toilets. I think Hanners is in a somewhat more rustic locale. Regardless, I’m delighted to see her, and looking somewhat content. ---

Did you somehow get the idea that the San Diego Zoo & _WILD_ Animal Park domesticates their critters at all, let alone so thoroughly that they use a latrine? ETA: Sorry; my tone in that post strikes me as a little more acerbic than I had intended. ---
