*sniff* Jackie no wanna be my cuddlemuffin. *sniff*<P>Ah well. Actually, what I'm confused about is the second panel's monologue. At least, the second part of it.<P>"If I'm attracted to ya, it's MY problem. If you don't swing that way, I can't make you."<P>(Okay, I get this part) <P>"...in several ways."<P>What's that mean? It doesn't seem to fit with the other statement, unless I'm just being really dense (could be!). Am I missing something here? I'm confused.<P>-PsychoBlonde

There's always the tickle method...<P>You tickle incessantly until both are exhausted, and end up collapsing into each other... and that turns into a hug... and from there... <P>Not that I've ever done such a thing... no, of course not.<P>Look! It's Liza Minelli!<P>*runs away*<P>-Zodo

A former girlfriend of mine used to say that it was unfair that I was able to ignore being ticklish, if I so chose.<P>All's fair in lust and war...<P>That tickling thing I described previously is how we became SO's. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"><P>-Zodo

Ahhhhhh, I get it now. =)<P>It was just the phrasing that threw me off. Now that I think about it, it DOES make sense, though personally I would have worded it differently so it was more clearly a pun. Like, instead of:<P>"If you don't swing that way, I can't make you. ...in several ways."<P>Make it like this:<P>"If you don't swing that way, I can't make you. ...in more ways than one."<P>IMO, that would have made it much clearer. But, then, that's just me. =)<P>Or just have her add "So to speak." =)<P>Anyway!<P>Yeah, zodo, the tickle thing does work. It's a fun ploy. *blinks all innocently and cutely* Course, I just love tickling people in general, so... =)<P>-PsychoBlonde

Oh dear, look what I've started. I'm afraid it's a bit more mundane than that. You'll just have to see. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"><P>------------------

Silly man, once you dip your quill in the inkwell of gender bending, you may find it colors the whole of your work!<P>Hell, I made one joke about Volair being bisexual and then the whole damn comic strip turned into a gender pretsel.<P>Mmmm... Gender pretsel...<P>------------------

Okay - if I turn out even CLOSE to right about ANYTHING except maybe the fact that Shannon and Melissa might eventually get together somehow, I'm going to be very, very scared.<P>--The One and Only Hatboy

And now, Avalon-style over-extrapolation from the strip and BJ's hints and my own hyperfertile imagination!<P>Ada and Caryn will go out, but a disastrously mixed-up communication will result in Ken, about to return for a few days, thinking that Melissa's cheating on him with Caryn, and that Gin is Caryn's daughter, leading him to ditch her, leaving a heavily conflicted Shannon ("It's probably wrong... he's misinformed and would take her back if he knew the truth... but she's crying and I'm right here... oh, fuck it.") to console her. Meanwhile, Jackie plays backgammon with the Fridge.<P>------------------

No, what was Avalon-style was extrapolating a long and complicated series of events from a couple of offhand comments and reading WAAAAY too much into character positioning and facial expression. Maybe I should have said "Avalon-forum-style"<P>------------------

I'm impressed, Hatboy.<P>But that backgammon thing? Way off. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/tongue.gif"><P>------------------
