Isn't that technology hardware?
Eh, I don't know.
Wouldn't that be like cough syrup or something, though, and not just tissues?
Anyways, I know you never wanted to know, but yes, Virginia, Pluggers can look worse.

This is a blog devoted to the comic strip "Pluggers", about the "80 percent of humanity who unceremoniously keep plugging along -- balancing work, play and family life." This strip is also described as "America’s first interactive, reader-participation comic." That sounds like most of us, right? And our fellow Americans are sending in the ideas. So let's see how it matches up with reality, shall we?
What is Ableist Language?
Ableist Word Profile at FWD
This is a good place to start. It's an ongoing series.
The posts are "101" so feel free to ask questions, as long as they're not "FREE SPEECH!!!!" or "Why does this matter?"
Anyone commenting here who uses such words to describe me or the comics will get a warning and if they continue, their comments will be deleted.
Please respect me at my blog.
It's not censorship, it's my personal blog. I am not the government. And the internet is not the USA.
If you must, go to your own blog, or to twitter or facebook and use it. You're free to do so. Just not here.
Yes, I have used ableist language here in the past. Not proud of it, but I'm not going to go back and edit all the posts where I did. It's important to see how I've grown as a person.
This is an R Word free blog.

I can't decide whether or not that's an intentional 'tissues are soft' joke. Maybe I'm overthinking it.
Maybe it's just because it's four in the effing morning, but that email address at the top of the panel looks a little more insistent than usual. "Email! Email Pluggers! Here! And it's AOL, which all you old fogies should still have! Email!"
Oh, sweet Death, how I long for you.
in reality, there isn't any kind of anti-viral anyway, so the whole thing is really retarded
xy, true, but they're stupid.
And what do the tissues do for you anyway, besides keep the mess and the visible germs contained?
