Suggestion: Post Historical Trauma

~Some Person suggested this in the Image Pickin thread:

I thought it was a little weak on the "trauma" part so I suggested this instead:

Both are Grace from El Goonish Shive

1.2. Honestly, I considered suggesting that moment but figured it was too slow. Someone with better tools than me made a shorter version of it, and I'd say it works better.

1.2.

1.2.

to 1.2

1.2

Caption suggestion.

1.2 + 7 for the caption

1.2 + 7

I'm good with 1.2; not really feeling the caption, though.

"When she finds out that World War I was called 'The War to End All Wars' she's going to go from upset to pissed off."

7 for caption

7 for the caption.

I'm not especially fond of my suggestion but it might be worth going captionless for now because 7 kind of undermines the impact of the strip and feels like we're downplaying the horror of WWII which feels.... wrong.

Any other opinions on this matter?

I mean I see your point but...making fun of historical tragedies several decades from its occurance is par for the course of not just the internet, but society in general.

And just to make it clear, my caption suggestion was less meant to downplay the impact of Pearl Harbor, Nagasaki, and Hiroshima, and more meant to show sympathy for them in a concise manner.

Yeah

I actually prefer 12 over 7.

Yes, me too.

12 = 7 for me
