No way. You are clearly in denial about your own comic. Crotch! Crotch! Crotch!

yeah, the belt excuse as pretty lame, but makes sense for him

I just realized that Panel 5, if taken out of context with the rest of the update is pretty funny.

Evan is lecturing Ted on politeness, whilst cursing him and flipping him off.

Here's an example of someone listening to a crotch. Granted, this girl isn't terribly bright:

... or the waiter's crotch. Or both at the same time (personally I find chocolate sauce works better in that kind of scenario, but hey, different strokes for different folks

)

*cerebellum rotates, creaks and comes to a screeching halt. Bolts and crews fly everywhere, blinding the slack-jawed gawkers that happen to be standing by*

He was also looking at his belt, not his crotch.

"...in some cultures."

Both you and Evan are full of crap.

edit/ what a weird typo....

Good question. I think its different things to different people.
The baker and the guy in the deli at the place I work at used to laugh and carry on all the time. He'd sneak up and scare her, then she'd get him back by saying something to make him blush. I thought for sure they were becoming an item but they were just good friends.

As to the comic, heheh, very good update. I agree with others: I think Evan is totally out of touch with himself. Course that much has been obvious for a while, what with his eating disorder and all. Still, I think he has the strength of character to eventually figure himself out.

Note the way Evan plays with his hair when speaking to the server, the way his eyebrows raise and how he looks up with his eyes instead of raising his head, asking a completely superfluous question on a matter he's already decided. That smile he gives while acting decisively after only the server's tepid approval. It's just this pattern of speech and body language that says not only "I might like you," but also, "you should like me." It's a very subliminal thing, and it should mostly stay as subtext.

...apparently I got caught flirting several times...

Stop this now! People are getting aroused, apparently.

I know what you are aiming to do Suburban, but you are still within the fandom. Don't forget that.

Unless your characters will be ruled 34 by some randy fellow who can draw.

Heh, I've wondered about rule 34. I guess it's bound to happen at some point.

Umm...what's rule 34?
