She should just pretend she is and then Roz would stay away out of respect. That way Jacob can be chaste and stuff without being humiliated. Except if Mike finds out.
She crossed the line. It’s not a huge step, but her initial appearance, all her interfering was helpful. This time it’s causing problems. Makes for a world of difference.
As far as she knows, she hasn’t crossed any lines, really. She has no idea of Jacob’s sex addiction, so she is actually an innocent (relitavely speaking) party in this.
Still no laser mounted gerbils being led against large unlikely supermonsters by Mike. No semi-ghostly ex-presidents. No flying, costumes, secret agents, aliens, toy explosions, kidnappings, sewer explosions, time travel…
Just: Feelings…
Nothing More than Feeeeelings
Feelings, wo-o-o feelings,
Wo-o-o,
Feelings, wo-o-o feelings,
Wo-o-o, feelings again in my arms. Feeeeeeeelings…
Just tell her he has a disease (true-ish) and look real frightened.
All you really need to do in this day and age, even for a lackwit like Roz, is tell her that he has “…An illness. A highly embarassing illness.” You could toss in “…No, barriers won’t work, it’s really bad. Seriously, stay clenched if you’re within ten feet of him, he’s just that infectious” to be comedic about it.
Don’t count on that. Remember, the issue isn’t Roz. Its Jacob. He’s already a hair’s breadth from relapse into “Tiger Syndrome” as some idiot reporter once called it.
Amber should just be honest. For reasons she can not explain Jacob is trying to keep a vow of celibicy. Roz is going to difficult for him and she wants him to succeed.

Realistically, the best thing to do would be beat her to Jacob and explain the sitch.
But that’s not comedy gold!
Except this is Roz, so there’s no way that bit of gossip would stay underwraps, and then Jacob would be on the receiving end of Death by Mike.
Which, honestly, from my POV, there are worse ways to go. I vote we make them settle this with topless wrestling.
I like how our opinions of Roz pulled a full one-eighty without breaking a sweat.

I was going to try to sound all angry about the word “brother” being used to refer to Jacob, but I couldn’t manage to keep the facade up long enough.
Oh man, that meaning didn’t even occur to me. My first thought was, “another conversational topic that Robin somehow turned into incest.”
Is anybody else getting errors trying to access the main forum?
It’s been down all week, with a lot of Blank Label’s stuff.
I wonder how a Roz, Jacob, Conquest love triangle would turn out…
Thousands dead.
Lots of sogginess.
I think you’re thinking of the Jacob-Conquest-Roz-Faye four-way. Which wouldn’t work…. like bulldozing a dike in Holland…
Highly disappointed you didn’t try to work Faz in there.

Laser firing camels, I’d settle for camels…
Ohhh this cannot possibly end well.
enough of the relationship stuff…this comic needs more Ninja!

Nah roz might be the girl that Jacob might be wanting after all. After all she’s a sex fiend herself. perhape he can give her thepary secessons

Duchovnyitis!!
Well Robin and Amber, as a friend of mine once heard her cousin say (somewhat loudly) during a family member’s wake: “Incest is best”
Apparently everyone there got a good chuckle. Weird Rhode Islanders!!!
Amber should just be honest. For reasons she can not explain Jacob is trying to keep a vow of celibicy. Roz is going to difficult for him and she wants him to succeed.
Hi, I was originally planning on emailing you, but I couldn’t find your contact info for the life of me.
I started reading your archives today and I have to say I disagree with this strip:
http://shortpacked.com/comics/2005-05-30-a.gif
My reason stems from this picture I took of a New York City subway advertisement a while back:

Sorry for the random upload site, my work computer apparently blocks tinypic and imageshack.
Anyways, enjoy!

I was about to say something like “Someone’s complaining about a 5 year old strip? Really?”, but then I saw the strip itself and the image, and…
You’ve won. I don’t think Killmaster can beat that.
LET THE BLACK MAN HAVE HIS WAY WITH ROSALYN, SEX ADDICTION IS A MYTH PERPETUATED BY WHITE PROTESTANT AMERICA!
Awful free with that arm there, Robin. Moving Amber out doesn’t seem to have quieted your subconscious completely.
Methinks tis but an art error.
Jacob is probably going to shoot down Roz. He’s too fixated on Amber right now.
On a completely unrelated note: Batman Punching ed cullen. make it happen
