I don’t worry about her name, I am only interested in fanservice. XD Nah, just kidding. Jynx helped Pilli a lot of times, I want to know how she returns the favor.
“SO BEING BORN FROM THE BIG BANG WAS A LIE”
“WHY SHOULD I USE A STUPID, NORMAL, HUMAN NAME?”
“LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT: YOUR PARENT’S STORE IS IN TROUBLE…”
“NEVER MAKE FUN OF THE NAME THAT YOUR PARENTS GAVE YOU!”
“PILLI, WEREN’T YOUR PARENTS DRUNK WHEN THEY GAVE YOU YOUR NAME?”
Also, about the contest: You said you would post more info about it later. I’m just curious when the deadline for it is. Thanks!
WOO. Actually it’s “parents'” (with the ‘ after the word) because “Parents” is plural and plural posessors (and names that end with S) have the ‘ applied after them.
Uh yeah but there’s no posession here. It’s just “your parents were drunk” reformed into a question, so it’s “weren’t your parents drunk?” no need for an apostrophe at all.
Pilli is not quite a normal name (Pili / Pilar would be – but Pilli?)
Regardless, Jynx María de los Dolores Katya Ricarda Hilda Stephanie Guadalupe… could be a “normal human name” in a Venezuelan soap opera sincerely (and that probably means in certain real realities as well).
ColdFusion: There is possession in one of the instances. “PARENTS’ STORE”
“YOUR PARENTS’ STORE” needs that apostrophe, but no other instance of parents needs an apostrophe. I put it in the wrong place in my first correction. Sorry! Also, I am worried about all these gun fights being mentioned on Tavo2’s twitter.
It’s not so confusing: when a word ends in S (or Z or X or SH) the possessive [‘s] is not written normally but as a mere apostrophe (rule: no “S’S” or similar: it looks ugly and sounds the same). You can’t write – Luis’s – it must be – Luis’ – the apostrophe is indicated after the original S.
“Parents” is plural, so it ends in S (as most English plurals do) so when you mean “of the parents” you write – parents’ – and not – parents’s -.
– Parent’s – would be “of the parent” (singular, either the father or the mother but not both).

Too many mistakes I should get an editor….
No dead line for the moment I was thinking about a month or two

Pilli is kind of a weird name, but it’s cute!

That last panel of Pilli gave me a weird flashback to the early Pilli Adventure strips. Also, +1 for the Bing Bang, it sounds like a lame 80’s party.

now that I remember jinx has two sisters, and together they are las tres marias.

Heh, funny stuff. Never understood or had heard the name Pilli ever. Made it hard to find this comic again when I forgot the link.
Does “normal human name” imply that Jynx is an alien or monster?
Also: the word “werent” in the last panel should be “weren’t”.
