Line #2 YMMV/OzyAndMillie


1	* {{Anvilicious}}: A recurring theme in the comic is how flawed the American school system is, from the treatment of bullying and its victims to how football is favored over most school subjects.
2	* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: In one strip, Millie tells Miss Sorkowitz she has to go home because she's developed a fear of writing implements and will be unable to do her schoolwork. Miss Sorkowitz gives the greatest AsideGlance you will ever see.
3	* MoralEventHorizon:
4	** While she was not nice to begin with, Felicia really crosses this when she toys with Stephen Aardvark's feelings. After many failed attempts, Stephen nervously asks Felicia out on a date. If Felicia would have said no, that would have been one thing. However, she lies to him and says yes. As Stephen starts to get excited, she and her GirlPosse reveal that she was only playing with his emotions for a cheap laugh and viciously mock him. This ends up causing Stephen to run away to California completely heartbroken. What makes it worse is that [[KarmaHoudini Felicia got no punishment for what she did]] and gloated to Millie on how she easily hurt Stephen's feelings. See Tear Jerker below for more details.
5	** When it comes to the school's JerkJock Jermey, it feels like he crosses it a little more every time he bullies someone, especially the title characters.
6	* NightmareFuel: [[http://ozyandmillie.org/2008/01/02/ozy-and-millie-2022/ This'll definitely scare you from making any sandwiches]].
7	%%* StoicWoobie: Ozy for the most part.
8	%%* SweetnessAversion: Timulty. Though he is only four.
9	* ToyShip:
10	** Ozy and Millie have a debatable one. On the one hand, there's some [[ShipTease Ship Teasing]] going on in a few select scenes. On the other hand, Ozy and Millie's parents married in the final story arc, making them step siblings. On the ''other'' other hand, they're NotBloodSiblings. The prevailing opinion on the fan forum seems to be that either they'll end up together or at least one of them will end up transsexual; seeing as the creator of the strip is the latter herself, this seems plausible. This ends without a resolution; after the wedding, the [[https://ozyandmillie.org/comic/ozy-and-millie-2131/ last actual strip]] is them waking up in bunk beds and going outside to play; the last few pics of them [[http://www.ozyandmillie.org/d/20090909.html as]] [[http://www.ozyandmillie.org/d/20090916.html adults]] don't offer any hints either.
11	** In some of the strips from 2000 Stephen has a crush on Felicia that never goes anywhere, though towards the end Felicia starts to get a little close to [[spoiler: Avery]].
12	* TearJerker:
13	** The story arc where Jeremy shoves Millie in the mud over and over again for his own fun. This causes Millie to break down into tears and makes her [[TakeThatScrappy slap Jeremy in the face]]. The victory is short lived however when Millie gets in trouble for it ([[AdultsAreUseless as the teacher failed to see what Jeremy did first]]) while Jeremy mostly [[KarmaHoudini got away with it]] again. Seeing someone innocent get blamed for trying to stand up for themselves really is saddening to say the least. Making this worse is that when Millie points out how long Jeremy has been tormenting her, the teacher actively informs her that she knows... it's just easier to punish Millie now and ignore him the rest of the time.
14	** The fact that Ozy and Millie are routinely treated as the problem children at school because they're different from their peers, Ozy being an intellectual who doesn't play sports and would in fact risk physical harm playing football due to his small frame and Millie being a tomboy surrounding by snobby girly girls. Heck; Ozy gets taken to therapy because of his black clothes and quiet manner and when he explains how he's cursed by the American school system favoring athletes over everyone else, the therapist ''actively apologizes to him''.
15	** In one story Stephen (after repeated failed attempts) asks Felicia out on a date nervously. To his surprise, she says yes. As Stephen starts to get excited however, Felicia and her posse suddenly laugh in his face and cruelly reveal [[WhamLine that she wasn't serious]] and she was playing with his emotions for a cheap laugh. The look on Stephen's face really makes you feel sad for the nerd.
16	%%** The story about Shelley, Ozy's biological mother. Sort of.
17	* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: Not that the comic isn't kid-friendly; it is. But a good half of its humor is build around philosophy, politics or economics, not something a kid would care about or understand. Which puts ''Webcomic/OzyAndMillie'' in the tradition of Creator/DanaSimpson's influences, such as ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'', ''ComicStrip/{{Pogo}}'' and ''ComicStrip/BloomCounty''.
18	* TheWoobie: Ozy as above. Stephen as well... at least when it comes to romance. While nothing ever happened with Isolde, good or bad, his crushes on Felicia and Stephanie both ended in pain: Felicia pretended to say she would go out with him, then mocked him with her GirlPosse and insulted him (which caused him to run away), and Stephanie was only interested in being friends despite being perfect for him and was instead interested in Jeremy. Millie is a minor example but has her moments.
