    I thought the other character was one of the spouses, but I assume she's younger. Is this a new character?

    What is this I don't even.

    I caught the first sentence of the news post before the main site died. That's Jerry's son, I believe.

    Edit: Ah yeah, main site un-died. That's his son, Elliot.

    Not sure. That looks a lot like Katie Rice, she was the winner of Strip Search and makes Camp Weedonwantcha. I wasn't sure if she was around the office still or not though.

    I like her dead pan floss pose though in panel 3.

    The first Elliot comics appeared in late 2007. So ... 11?

    Huh. Yea I guess around 11 or 12 kids start looking like real humans just smaller.

    Crazy!

    Come on, now. If you're gonna shitpost then at least make sure it makes sense.

    I mean, you could have got him for ending in a prepositional phrase in the second panel. But now we can't because you made us nit-pickers look like fools.

    It took me a second read to realize his pet dog is now a skeleton in the backpack.

    There is no rule of grammar that you can't end a sentence with a preposition. It's simply a myth, most likely from people who learned Latin (where that is a rule) and tried to apply it to English. Kind of like people who claim the plural of any word ending with -us must be -i.

    Sorry to have to correct you, but nit-pickers are a pet peeve of mine.
