The Great Game
Posted by Ray @ 4:58 pm
Once, while I was speaking to this girl about dating, she said: “Isn’t it all a power play?”
It’s all just a game, with winners and losers, and pity the fool who ends up the loser. But while we’re all squandering our youth in the merry thrust and parry of the dating game, secure in the illusion of invulnerability our lack of experience has granted us, thrilled at the minor boost to our self-esteem every put-down brings, remember this:
It’s all fun and games, until somebody gets hurt.
Yeap, a new strip is up. I think Zeng captured panel #3 perfectly. She looks so… focussed. Heh heh heh.

I’ve seen the real thing myself before.

It is never a game, people abused it and made it one. The comic is amazing, esp the third panel.

Han: Haven’t we all!
B1: Yes, but it’s better than overly complicating things, eh? =)
