      I disrespect authority figures so much, I ignore warnings from authority figures to avoid using terms of respect and come around full circle!

        Funny, those were my thoughts when I read the third pannel.

        There are no authority figures unless one consents to acknowledge others as such. Power is taken, not given. The same is true of choice. It doesn’t matter what you do as long as you do it for your own reasons, rather than theirs.

          contradiction. when power is taken, not given, it is taken nonconsensually. when people establish themselves as authority figures either your first or second sentence is false.

        Only prob I had with that was she came on to E-Merl almost as if she was gifting him a “pity-f@*#”. He deserved better.

    I am going to have to make a “Center for the Defiantly Extended Finger”
    Here at CDEF we are learning to give a shit about not giving a fuck.”
    Of course I’m not just the President of CDEF, I’m also using my member privilege!

      I can see the charitable fund-raising campaign:
      Won’t you give a gift to those who give a shit? We won’t give a fuck, but we will give you this commemorative tabard, and a subscription to our newsletter!

    So E-merl became a zenmaster, then? well, I guess that works, especially since he;s one for the most energetically defiant one in the known universes.

          To be fair, if they are giving a fuck, they probably don’t give a shit about who knows it? so it sort of balances out?

    It looks like E-merl reedited some gastonian marshall clothes… I guess it suited him

      All things considered it suits him, he’s the silver talents to turn the rubes rags into robes.

    I think this is an over simplification. Some big bads can back up their words. They’re not compensating they just tend to be chatty or worse yet monologue.

      The thing that would scare me about living full-time in an imagined world is a sort of epistemic closure, in which tropes just play out uncriticized.

      Also, getting attacked by monsters. That would also scare me.

    Looks like E-Merl got some good character growth out of all of this, and a sweet new outfit.

    Eh, I’m inclined to think it’s like Colbey in A City In A Place. In one of the side stories (http://acityinaplace.com/images/goodbye/goodbye038f3.pdf) someone tells her, “That’s your strength, Colbs: you know the enemy has the upper hand, and you don’t give a fuck. You don’t care because you know the edge that sheer strength of will gives you.”

    To Frigg, if you’re defiant enough then no big bad can actually live up to their talk, so use their talk to fuel your defiance.
