These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.
Ensemble Darkhorse: Maureen's daughter Lily. Ed himself once said that she was their most popular secondary character and has joked about making a spinoff starring her based on sheer popularity.
Heartwarming Moments: Ashley, Norm's personal tormentor, showing him some sympathy after he broke up with Bridget. Seen here.
Then when Norm and Bridget get back together.
After three years of angsting over his life, Norm finally realizes his purpose.
Needs More Love: It may try to lay its image of "a strip for cynical twentysomethings" a little bit much on occasion but it is something fresh for a newspaper strip, spoofs a few tropes here and makes a real effort at being both clever and funny.
Too Good to Last: The strip ended its initial syndication on October 31, 2010. The author is looking into possibly continuing the series on the web and securing a contract with gocomics to rerun the strip after the rights revert back to him. Until then, the comic's blog is currently running a new strip from the three year archive every day with author's commentary.
