- Sandy South: Since I had nothing better to do, I grabbed my partner, Qoo, and set out for the scene of the crime.
- Sandy South: Society isn’t particularly keen on fellas like me. Even in this day and age, most people seem to prefer a full and proper police investigation to vigilante justice.
- Sandy South: To make it short: Life is tough on snoops…
- Sandy South: … But I’m tougher!
- Zoey: Halloween was in October, you super dork!
- Sandy South: Eat boogers and die!

Don’t undermind my creativity, Zoey!
She’s trying on her Carnival costume, which is in a month from now. Don’t you know anything, Zoey?
… a rather sad statement on how so many people act, honestly. It is all too common to insult someone for acting in a manner that suits their own interests and does no harm to anyone else. Not that we all need to get along, sing kumbiya, and be bestest of friends… but mayhaps the old adage ‘If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all’ should be used a little more often.
Then again, insults usually are not the way to solve the issues of those who do cause others harm. Sandra should know better than to feel the need to reply to such a petty statement. Tough doesn’t mean you have to bark back.
*Sorry for the intended puns, but they worked so well!*
Suggested Comeback:
“Then why is your rat dressed like a poodle?”
Oh Zoey you charlatan.
I’m always stunned that people will go to the trouble to point out stuff like this. That they’d take the time, it really shows their dedication to being jackasses. It’s almost touching.
Who’s Zoey?

She gets introduced quite early in the comic as a girl wo dislikes the man characters, and the main chracters dislke her.
Woah. They’re busting out the big-kid insults.
Sandra’s line sounds like a direct quote from Calvin and Hobbes to me! How appropriate.
so ya…that ad over there….its about porn….but manga. ok
Is Zoey’s pet the same nasty poodle who hassled Shadow? It all makes sense now.
Every day, massive commercial scam holiday or not, is a day for fedoras.
Is “Qoo” a typo for Woo? Or is that on purpose?
And then that person ate boogers and died. And thus Sandy’s next mystery was set, as it’s impossible, or at least nearly so, to tell that a person died from eating boogers. 😛
@ RedDwarfIV:
And still determined to be disliked, apparently!
Better yet, eat boogers and LIVE! 😉
@ RedDwarfIV:
Man characters? Lol
@ RedDwarfIV:
I remember Zoey from this comic.

She may well have good reasons for disliking the main characters. Well… for disliking Larisa at any rate. Actually this looks like the sort of rivalry that they are both equally to blame for considering their personalities. To be fair though I know little about Zoey’s personality so she could be much worse or better than Larisa.
To call back to a discussion couple issues ago I notice that the teacher is unnamed in the transcript box.

Actually Zoey was the one who started it.
This is the reason why she hate Larissa:

And this is why she hate/jealous at Sandra:

And suddenly Sandy South saw a kid with yellow hair, the kid dresses the same like her, he is accompanied by a stuffed tiger to which he call “Hobbes”. Out of curiosity Sandy South asked the kid name, to which he reply “Bullet, Tracer Bullet”….
That’s a good one. I think I’ll remember that one. XD @ Malchus:
“Eat boogers and die” O.O my mom says that alot….XD
A little “fikdik” to add here: never use the name Qoo in Brazil, it sounds like a local bad word.. =P
@ Robert:
Can’t say something nescient? Some ass came up with that.

@ Jungon:
A limb of the body is not a bad word.
Just for the record, “fella” is a male descriptor. She is essentially referring to herself as a male.
Why she would want to do so, I can’t be sure… but I suspect she just doesn’t know any better.
Qoo is pronounced like coo. It should be Quoo if you want it to rhyme with Woo.
Seeing the first panel i immediately thought about “My Girlfriend is the President”
Eat boogers and die…?
Kagura?!
