- Sandy South: Child abuse right out in the open. And everybody’s looking away!
- Sandy South: Let’s go home, Qoo. There’s nothing we can do here anymore.

Your universe asplode!
@ Vidad:
I imagine it’s authority figures not doing anything to stop the situation, and in fact encouraging it.
Most of westernized society benefits from abuse somewhere along the lines, whether it be the third world country factory paying 1 dollar a day to its employees to create the latest and greatest electronic gadgetry or the usurpment of people from their homes in order to get at some ‘much needed natural resource’. I suppose at the end of the day, it’s really up to the individual how aware they want to be of it.
Is there abuse in the four comics we’ve seen Isabella in? No. She doesn’t like putting pineapple on pizza, but making her do it is not abuse. Her crying about it isn’t indicative of abuse. Her getting yelled at for not doing what she’s supposed to be doing isn’t indicative of abuse, although to be fair it’s also not a good way to handle that particular situation.
I think Sandy (Sandra’s alter ego) gets it into her head at times that she lives in the idyllic world, wherein things she considers bad are greatly magnified. In the Idyllic world there’s little suffering other than what she can directly witness. So, no one suffers to create the world she lives in, but people can ‘suffer’ in it, whether they be the young girl trapped putting pineapple on pizza, or the vast cereal conspiracy set on ruining Sandra’s favorite brand. ‘Sandy South’ is truly a precocious, innocent child’s view of the world, which honestly syncs up perfectly with who Sandra is and where she’s at in life.
Is the apocalypse. The end of the world to find oneself, marks the end of time

When Sandra mentioned child abuse in the pizzeria, my thoughts suddenly turned to pizza gate and the bizarre story that a child sex ring was being run out of a Washington D.C. pizzeria. As crazy as the story of Tony C. Forcing his daughter to create the dreaded Hawaiian pizzas and serve them to customers was. Isabella’s pizza purity pontifications seem reasonable compared the real conspiracy theory.

Truth can be stranger than fiction, I guess.
It was definitely an allegory to pizzagate, the reason it was turned into a joke about Hawaiian pizza, was in part a reference to a politician who also mentioned banning Hawaiian pizza and something to make the whole thing funny, keeping the comic somewhat lighthearted, even while referencing something horrible.
Based on all comments about all the “inhumane monsters” who eat Hawaiian, I’d say it succeeded amazingly.
As for the last panels, is Sandra having an existential crisis?

I found this the other day, and it reminded me of Larisa.

I mean, lets be honest. The perfect “upgrade” for Larisa is to not only burn things, but to pour liquid nitrogen on the things that don’t burn. Or, which she has somehow already set of fire anyway.
Did you know that Hawaiian Pizza was actually invented in Canada?
Time for the standard “Neither are real places” joke.@ Xuncu:
@ Hobbes:
The perfect upgrade is to activate her psyonic metathermic skills. Wait, obscurish game reference. In said game, she’d probably like most things about metathermics except for half of it, seeing as it is described as the “manipulation of temperature to its extremes” and she prefers the fire extreme. The ice extreme would be boring to her, but still useful.
@ roguebfl:
She can work in the family business, but she can’t do certain jobs which meet the guidelines of ‘hazardous conditions’ for her particular age group. In the restaurant industry, this means things like not being able to use heavy duty electrical equipment like meat slicers, using cardboard bailers or pneumatic trash compactors, and in this instance, she also would be prohibited from using a commercial pizza oven. Although, to be fair most family restaurants I’ve known to have trouble with this have only gotten warnings, it’s pretty rare that they’d even fine you for it.
I hear lots of people complaining about how fruit on pizza is “wrong”.
A tomato is a fruit. You have tomatoes on pizza.
Fruit on pizza is correct. Q.E.D.

Everything is a fetish these days.
Sandra might not be “breathtakingly beautifull”, but she sure is cute.
@ Xuncu:
I did… only reason it wasn’t called “Canadian” is because it was already taken!
This is what happens when you invest too much energy in a fantasy character – your tulpa always gains life of its own.

Drawing feet is easy. You just do it one inch at a time. X-D
