Comic Transcripts

ANDREA: Another Valentine’s Day.
LESLIE: Another depression day. God, I hate getting it rubbed in my face that people are so gullible.

LESLIE: Corporations tell girls to tell guys to spend money. And girls giggle and do it. They make guys feel like they have to jump through these stupid Hallmark hoops, or else. It’s just sad.

ANDREA: Still, sometimes it’s nice to run ’em around a little.

JAKE: They were ALL OUT of roses at the grocery store I am SO SORRY
JAKE: Can I just give you the CASH instead does it even WORK that way

20 years ago (in photocomic form)
