Awwwww. That’s sweet.
Hubris is still alive.
Nice, right?

Mrs. Biner, it seems, has been harboring a lifelong, if slightly outdated, ambition for her only child.
And, of course, Kara seems to have gotten the sense of it at a young age, and did what she does. She competed with it.
Didn’t drive it out of her head, though, I mean, she DID jump straight at the chance to settle down as soon as it presented it itself.
I don’t think Kara is especially nice to people who… well, people who can’t challenge her to a duel, really.
And when I say “duel”, I mean any competitive back and forth. Maybe Steven’s got the right idea… The only way to win is not to play.
…even when she calls you a bald, fat, chicken man.
I think we can assume that Steven has a really close, positive, and happy relationship with his parents.
Why does that seem so weird?
I mean, it IS weird. Isn’t it?
I imagine that there are people who enjoy discovering what cheap time slots Peter has his commercials in, just so they can be horrified at them.
There was a car repair place here years ago who ran their ads at, like, 4:30 a.m. They were great. They guy was all dressed up in a very fine suit, standing in front of a green screen talking as fast as he could so he could tell you as much as possible in 30 seconds. Behind him were flashing scenes of cars in various states of disrepair. What made the commercials funny is, in rapid-fire delivery, the guy said, “We specialize in foreign cars, we specialize in American cars, we specialize in body work, we specialize in painting,…” and on and on… They specialized in everything they did. By the end of it, even people who let language just flow over them with no thought woke up enough to go “Hang on, dude. Maybe go look up the word “specialize””
Think of Peter Enis Wang doing that kind of commercial, along with wildly misinterpreting what his inventory might be, and you’ve got it.
Dang. Now I’ve gotta make sure we see his commercials here.
Oh, good. Hubris got his fish, Mr. Biner and Steven are going to have some Appleby’s and Kara is going to… No, she’s not getting smoked ribs.
Someone else’s ribs are likely to get smoked now, I bet.
At least Steven’s foot isn’t being left behind.
Steven was a huge Scooby Doo and Josie And The Pussycats fan!
Do any of you guys remember that first season of Scooby Doo when the group weren’t actually a band, but the producers seemed to think that music should be a part of each episode, preferably in the chase scene? And then all the similarly formatted shows that followed along featured bands as the main characters.
And y’know, bands… dancing… eight frames a second animation… Ugly dancing.
The Archies weren’t the kind of band to inspire wild gyrations and all, but wow… Fred and Daphne had some lame moves. Or should I say “Move”, ’cause they only got one each.
And if you think I shouldn’t be lumping ‘Scooby Doo’, ‘Josie and the Pussycats’, ‘The Archies’, and, I dunno, ‘Speed Buggy’ all into the same group, well then, you don’t REALLY remember Saturday Morning Cartoons. Seriously, my kids know the term ‘Saturday Morning Cartoons’, but they have no personal memory of waiting a whole dang week to see any kind of animation outside of a Sugar Frosted Flakes commercial.
Since these cartoons have already run over on the Patreon page, I’ve already got some feedback on this one…
So let’s examine Kara’s behavior… Competition junkie tries to turn her life around by dating someone who dotes on her and suits her father and doesn’t enable her competition addiction.
And she tries to turn him into Hubris the very second that she’s accomplished her goal.
Yep. Perfectly normal human behavior.
I’m now going to the kitchen to get my fifth soda of the day that I swore off five times today already.
Steven seems to know what he’s getting into, and doesn’t seem to mind that he’s getting into it.
Love is blind, and often, that’s how love finds itself crippled and maybe on some kind of pain meds.
We’ll see.
