The trick is she wants you to think you see it coming, only so she can appear to your left so you can call her a “clever girl” prior to be “GOOD MORNING”ed to death.
I hit “flag” and can’t get rid of it. That was wrong! This shouldn’t be flagged! Sorry!

Don’t worry about that. It takes five people flagging a comment before anything happens, and even then it just gets bumped into a moderation queue for Willis to review. If the comment gets reinstated, it can’t be flagged again.
Have I told you about getting scraped off the street and telling the guy closest to my head to be careful of my broken leg? I can’t remember if I told you or someone else.
She’s grinning when you’re sleeping, she’s chipper when you’re awake. She knows when you’ve been bad or good so wake up between the hours of 4 and 6 am for goodness sake!
It’s interesting to see just how much Becky knows about her friend, sorta sweet! Feels like she felt worried about her back then too. I don’t think Joyce needs to be babied into taking her pills, but getting someone who already knows helping her to feel more comfortable about the idea isn’t the worst!
I missed happy Joyce too 🙂 glad she’s not feeling awful anymore.
Be glad I’ve been mainly listening to instrumental music lately. I think the only song I heard overday with any actual lyrics was “Forces Of Evil” which wasn’t by an actual band.
I know those little dangling bits from her coat are flying out like that because Joyce just arrived at speed, but they also do so look like she’s got friendly alien tentacles, waving hello.
People often say “Good Morning to me when I first show up to work. And it often gets on my nerves because…while I am not displeased to see them, those words may very well be the first words to come out of my mouth that day and it”s in a sorta “call and response” manner of which I’m only really say out of a formality. And since my throat is probably dry and unprepared to speak I don’t have the same energy in my “good morning” as they have. But I’ll come across as rude if I do not say it back.
I don’t know when I became such a curmudgeon but that’s how I feel.
“Oh, is it? I hadn’t noticed.”
“And to you, my optimistic friend.”
“And the very best of all good things to you this morning.”
“I haven’t killed anyone yet, so it must be.”
“Perhaps. Perhaps. We shall see. We shall see.”
“Odd. That’s what my grandmother used to say, God rest her soul.”
“An absolutely tip-top spiffing morning indeed.”
“What are the qualities that make one morning good and another less so? Every morning is individual. When we say good morning, is it really fair to compare one morning to another as though it were a competition?”
“Once I wake up, I’ll see if I agree.”
“Tolerable morning at any rate.”
“Mornings should be outlawed, but this one has behaved so far.”
“Indeed, it’s a good day to die.”
“That’s what it wants you to think. You know, it’s pretending to catch you off guard.”
“What do you mean? Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?” – Gandalf
I usually wake up with a song stuck in my head, no idea how common this is. Borderline can’t not be singing or humming in the morning. Lately it’s tended to be something off of Yebba’s album because I’ve been fairly obsessed with it for a couple weeks. Sometimes I’ll be surprised with a tune i haven’t heard in years. Brains are fun? Sometimes??
I usually just respond with “Hello!” Then again, I’ve spent most of my adult life working the graveyard shift, so I don’t necessarily share most people’s definition of “morning”.
Good Morning!
Good Morning!
We’ve talked the whole night through!
Good Morning!
Good Morning to you!
If you’re going to say goodm Morning with gusto I’m gonna refrence Singing in the Rain.
The first one is creepier and therefore also funnier (depending on the soundscape), and the second one is definitely more flirty and therefore also funnier.
I enjoy the first one cuz I have this strange affinity for the concept of someone bending over backwards while sitting on your lap to deliver an upside down spiderman kiss of sorts.
I don’t even know how possible it is but it certainly would not be easy.
Taffy
Easier than one might think, based solely on personal experience. Long as the one in the lap is about a head shorter than the lap’s owner and/or the seat is leaning back a bit. It’s a little work, but worth the while.
Yotomoe
That’s good to know! Though a Reverse Ciao Girl would just be a friendly hello from that position.
I used to come up behind people and like. Squeak, at obnoxiously high pitch. For the jump scare and also because I could make unreasonably high sounds. Volume wasn’t the *point*… But it was usually also high.
Then I became a teacher, with like, triggerable tinnitus/auditory issues, and kids would yell in my ear to be deliberately shitty, or just cos 13/4 is not a good age for indoor voices, and I knew Remorse.
Wha what? What was the plan? Hey Jenifer, Joyce doesn’t want to see me and she feels beset by questions about her health come with me and together we will ask about her health.
Another question is it normal not to lock your dorm room?

I mean, it still takes less muscular effort than “Socially appropriate greeting”, though that one is lighter mentally
Clif
You need to develope a repertoire of answers.
“Oh, is it? I hadn’t noticed.”
“And to you, my optimistic friend.”
“And the very best of all good things to you this morning.”
“I haven’t killed anyone yet, so it must be.”
“Perhaps. Perhaps. We shall see. We shall see.”

Use deranged laughter. But never normalize it.

Have a food or drink that you can believably or actually have a mouth full of, and gesture hi with the hand holding the food/drink.

I do this or sometimes point to my throat to indicate it’s dry and that I want to drink first before getting into pleasantries.

This is best done with an obviously still factory sealed container.

That is the correct response to sudden, way too loud ‘good mornings’, Jennifer. XD
That said, it’s good to see Joyce is feeling better.

Here lies Jennifer
Died via small Christian woman jumpscares
cbwroses
Small atheist woman jump-scares.
Unless you consider Becky as the setup for said scare.
King Daniel
Hey, Jennifer also considers herself Christian. She could be the “small Christian woman”. 😛
cbwroses
I don’t think Jennifer is generally considered small by most aspects.
Needfuldoer
Looks like she’s a little taller than Becky and Joyce, who are about 5’4″.

Panel 4 is so loud the audio is clipping. That’s not good for the speakers, Joyce.

Probably the plan was for Jennifer to help but for Becky to make it clear that it was her idea and not Dorothy’s.

Just loved Jennifer’s style: black shirt, dress over pants. And coat wrapped on hips, that needs to be in fashion again.
