It's a shame about the way the darker patterns reproduce digitally. I used to obsess over the morays and how best to avoid them. Then I stopped using screentones altogether and let color be someone else's job! Effective!
This strip stayed with me. In 2019, actually around the time this reran, I was making out with a girl when my housemate loudly banged on my door. I went out and greeted him exactly like Will here.
Incidentally, he’d had a back injury and asked me to rub icy hot onto his hairy back and only afterwards did he ask me if it was a bad time. I turned back to the girl and said “life comes at you pretty fast” and she made me wash my hands.
