Original Commentary

This was one of those comic that made me want to pull out my hair- at first it looks like Kimberly is just being mean- and for 24 or so hours everyone would be thinking "OMG how mean Kimberly is!" but then the next comic would shed a bit more light onto it.

But by then the damage had been done and I would have received a ton of e-mails demanding to know why Kimberly is being so horrible to Brisbane and why is he talking this and blah blah blah...

It was one of those inappropriate bouts of laughter- I know I've had at least one of those in my life and I'm sure if you think about it, you can think of a moment where you laughed at something that made people look at you sharply. Only you have the next moment to defend yourself while Kimberly has to wait a whole 24 hours. -Isabel

Modern Commentary
Mean? Yes. But the dude did just ghost her for a month...

That's the thing about daily updates. Sometimes it's just "Trust me, we're going somewhere with this". Not all the time. You shouldn't train the audience to always expect a swerve. But sometimes, the next comic will change the context of what you saw. - Terrence
