Funny strip, don’t get me wrong (in fact, 9\10 for the outrageous hypocrisy and Dee Dee’s expression, I love how over the top this arc is so far), but I’ll never understand Peirce’s handling of Francis. He went from being a sweet sometimes annoyed friend who was there for his buds to a naggy mom friend to a jerk who couldn’t insult or mock them fast enough. Dude practically never shows a heart anymore. Nate gets a gf? “That won’t last”. Nate fears she’ll break up with him? Only Teddy tries to help. Dee Dee wants a role? She isn’t bribing me so why bother?
Again, it’s a great strip today, so in this particular instant I find it funny! But it’s depressing to see a once great character so misshapen
