Dawn will absolutely never learn anything about herself, are you kidding
Mary Worth, 12/14/24
OK, reading this almost sent me into a downward spiral -- and here I will pause to tell you that after typing that, I thought, "Hmm, is this really a thing I want to admit out here in public on God's own internet?" but then I realized that you guys have read this blog, I'm obviously in the top percentile worldwide of people who are most likely to have been sent into a downward spiral by a Mary Worth comic -- but anyway, I got sent into a downward spiral by the thought that Dawn had a whole-ass relationship that I had forgotten about. Who is this "Billy" character? When did we meet him? True, Dawn said they only went out for a "few weeks" but Mary Worth chronology is notoriously languorous, so that could refer to a storyline from months or years ago. I think the last time we heard about Dawn's love life was when she fled down to go live with her mother because she was still broken up about her comical drip of an ex Jared, only to return when it turned out that her mother didn't really care for her either, but it nags at me that there might be an entire earlier "Billy" storyline that I'm somehow forgetting. Was Billy the guy with a tiny face she ogled at the zoo? Some dude she picked up at da clurb? Or just some loser so dull he didn't even rate an appearance in the syndicated comic strip Mary Worth? Anyway, I look forward to learning whether Dawn's newfound veganism is a pathetic attempt to spite him somehow or an even more pathetic attempt to win him back.
Judge Parker, 12/14/24
I was going to object that Judge Parker Senior lives in leafy suburbia on an estate large enough to have its own hedge maze, so it seems weird to think there'd be CCTV cameras around, but then I remembered that he's a notorious criminal himself, so the local authorities are right to be careful.

Today's Hagar the Horrible is about Hagar's emotional life and how it affects his interactions with his friends and family. Honestly, I like it!
