    Oh my god! I used to read Sam & Fuzzy about 2 decades ago when I was a teenager! I didn’t realize the strip was still running. It got weird for a while and the main characters disappeared for about a year of strips, so I kind of lost interest. I wonder what’s happened in the last 20 years. It looks like it was rebooted about 15 years ago, and I don’t recognize any characters in recent strips.

      There was a very big plot arc from 2009 to 2019. The story is officially over and the comic has returned to gag-a-day format, but now with the expanded cast from the storyline.

      I recommend diving into the archive to read through that arc. It’s one of my favourite webcomic storylines.

    is it safe to put most of your body weight on a dishwasher door like that?

      If I saw my wife doing that, I’d consider it a ploy to make me have her step aside so I can show her how to do it. It would probably work.

      If you look at the proportions compared to the two people, that dishwasher is at least 1.5m high, so the door must be built like a drawbridge.

        the dishwasher is at waist height for the person on the left. Are you saying that they’re 3 meters tall?

          The other person is almost upright sitting inside it with space to spare, so for an average human being conservatively being 1.7 m, that means there is around a meter of space inside the thing. Add on the bottom part and the top part, and that’s how I came to the conclusion that it must be 1.5 m.

          The other person seems to be both in front of and behind the dishwasher, as she has a larger body than the girl inside the dishwasher, but she is also standing behind it. So I guess perspective is completely off.

          That said, it’s a cartoon, so there’s no point in trying to measure things. I just thought that I would not ever be able to sit up inside a dishwasher, not by far. Maybe a kid could?

    but… if I don’t make a mess, how are you going to stress clean?

    See. I’m helping you destress.
