And so the whole debacle just... peters out, not with a bang, but with a bit of absurdism.
Unfortunately, this being from the year 2000, we are not done with politicking by a long shot. Which is a shame, because when DCS is not on his soapbox he can put together some really nice and charming work.

You're reading Ozy and Millie and you didn't expect, or don't like it when this happens?but with a bit of absurdism.

Actually... t'be honest, a lot of the 'absurdism for absurdists sake' things (including the much-vaunted "I'm a waffle!") are really not appealing to me, no. It's just saying "Look how wacky I am!"; it's not humorous, just random.
But that wasn't really the point; I was just saying that DCS goes off on an arc about how Discrimination is Bad and then ends it with a chicken on a dragon's head. Granted, given the nature of the strip, I'm not surprised, but it did seem a little... incongruous.

DCS has an issue with ending arcs. Really wrote this arc into a corner. Unfortunately, I don't think DCS ever improved in that aspect.Actually... t'be honest, a lot of the 'absurdism for absurdists sake' things (including the much-vaunted "I'm a waffle!") are really not appealing to me, no.

...there's enough that I like that I can ignore the political soapboxing and rare instances of total absurdity. There's a lot more that I do enjoy than don't. Simple.
