Comic Genesis Forums

I have found a monumental mistake in this comic -- monumental in fanboy proportions, anyway. I was just re-reading the UTLT archive for the third time. As I was going through the Posse's early efforts to find our hero a date, I noticed that when Sheldon is placing an internet personal ad for Ben, he puts down Ben as a SWM seeking a SWF. The problem? Ben is not a polar bear.

Gee, You must be right. I mean no one would ever put down information in an internet personal that was not true would they?

Heh heh heh Single Wingle Male.

I hope not -- if they do it raises a huge question mark about that "thin buxom Russian bride" I mail-ordered.

Single Wild Male? Witty? Western?

Witless?

Wiffle!

Well you know that thin is a relitive term.
Thin in Russia may be a bit larger than what we may call thin here.
I think they may call an offencive tackle for the Oakland Raiders thin.
I will not even go into Buxom..... 8)

Actually, I know some Russian women, and they all look very nice. I wouldn't order one over the Internet, though -- what with the divorce rate, it's closer to prostitution than marriage.

Mail order brides? Ka ching.

Ah, sort of a "Kin ye squeal like a piggy?" thin.

read my sig.

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHh Get that out of my head.

I would say that as RHJ is a "SWM" he put that down. At the time the comic hadn't had a color issue so his coloring is rather ambiguous at that point. I don't see how it's revelant unless it is refering to "Western" as if western America. I still haven't discovered how Ben knows Navajo.

"Perhaps it is time to troll through the archives again?"

Somber

Ben probably listened to Pimsleur tapes on his way to work.

I dun't think so.

SWM most likley reflects on the artist. Don't we all write descriptions of our characters based on ourselves without realizing it?
