Do you have one of those programs that alters the color of your computer screen to reduce eye strain? The comic is in greyscale, but if your whole screen is tinted orange you might be seeing that.
One season of “Remington Steele” had them blow up Laura’s apartment and she moved into a loft they’d been using for a stakeout. That was her apartment for the rest of the series.
What gets me is Atsali said the only person she’s every been able to read is Pickle…yet during that whole exchange she was as oblivious to her as she is anyone else
Remember that this is a “new” Pickle, emotionally: “interested in boys” for the first time in her life. If she hasn’t talked about that issue directly to Atsali, Atsali wouldn’t have had any opportunity to learn the new meaning of any of Pickle’s body language and other nonverbal cues.
Oblivious is one thing, but she went from “I think I broke him” to “I think he has heat stroke” in the span of two strips. Either that’s a glaring continuity error, or she knows exactly what she’s doing and slipped for a moment.
According to facebook, the renter of their house in minniapolis had to move out this week, and there’s repairs etc to make it sellable. I’m guessing he has no buffer built up.
That young woman will make a fine mathmetician: she’s just oblivious enough!
Something’s going on with my eyes. If I look directly at Atsali’s top, I see it as dark orange, but it alternates with black.

Oh, right. I do have one of those. Good thinking. Thanks.
I’m glad Kath is getting a nice frame for Pickle’s art piece. It’s a bit big and heavy for the fridge.
Also, while Atsali is still clueless at reading people, I do give her credit for at least noticing Kath’s hair.
Kath is doing better as a parent than I ever would.
It’s the hair, that hair just screams badass mom to me.
Funny, it screams “Hubba-Hubba!” to me… 😉
That’s actually *you* screaming…
Their apartment spans the 3rd and 4th floor?
Did we ever see that it is a factory converted into a residence?
Decades ago there was a TV series with a private eye and his Asian wife
and that what they had.

That’s actually a good point. Forgot about that lol

More likely Atsali was concentrating on Timothy, and sort of taking Castela for granted.
Maybe both.
I’m with Dave. Astali would at most think Castela was acting strangely. Maybe Timothy too, but she was focused on her top problem: her top.
Atsali was upset, and she was concerned with their well being in the heat. I think she can be excused for not being on her toes.
Kath has become such an amazing person.
Having kids will that to a person, even if they aren’t your natural born kids.
Kath has always been an amazing person. She just never had to exercise that part of her before.
Well, at least we know that Timothy didn’t just sit there all day long staring into space.
Katherine just hasn’t noticed the puddle of happy warm pink ooze lying chuckling on the floor in the corner yet.
Timothy is in a hard-locked BSOD state. He needs a cold reboot. A warm reboot won’t help.
My brother just covered it up with a poster. We didn’t find it till he moved out.

Reread from Jul 21, 2016 Broke Your Friend: http://wapsisquare.com/comic/broke-your-friend/
Atsali says: OMG, I think you broke your friend.
On the page after she theorizes that he might have heatstroke.
No, slip. No continuity error.
Yeah. “You” broke him – not “I broke him”.
Whoops, dur. Effing selective reading.
I wonder what Pickle will think of having her little tantrum framed for posterity. Should prove amusing (for us).
Update issues?
According to facebook, the renter of their house in minniapolis had to move out this week, and there’s repairs etc to make it sellable. I’m guessing he has no buffer built up.
Did I miss a note, or is there some problem with updating?
nah, he just kind of made a passing comment on facebook that he’d be busy this week.
Then it’s “pins and needles” for us!
Don’t follow Facebook…as I’ve said before, it’s not like we have any real leverage over these things…
So Atsali really totally clueless about what she did to that poor boy?
