A Monumental Choice

Robert Heinig

Bear trap sounds cooler - a _Vorpal_ bear trap. "Snikkit"! May would be capable of wearing one casually...

I think that is a lace ruff, not a necklace.

Robert Heinig

Her necklace looking like a bear trap surely contributes to that..

They're becoming more and more motorboatable

There's an important difference between giving praise when it's earned and giving praise when it's demanded. If you give praise for something they didn't even do, you're not helping. In this case, the praise she wants was *not* earned, but it *was* demanded. A better response would have been "I'll compromise. You get credit for making a good decision, even though you *were* stubborn about it."

May looks so professional in those clothes 😊😊😊

Daryl Sawyer

Also, according to Tai, he's very climbable.

I just realized that Dale is tall – same height as May, who is almost as tall as Bubbles. (Apparently this was already the case in https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4349, I just never noticed it before.)

I keep trying to see May's collar ruffle as a strand of pearls.

Peter Jensen

I read it as he's hurrying to cut off May's comment, which he knows isn't particularly helpful in this situation.

Sean Kau

Not sure what the intention was, but given Dale's face, it looks like he feels pressured to provide affirmation to Marigold.

I think Jeph is on a big boob kick. Faye's rack seems to be getting to gravity defying size too.

GOOD JOB!

May is the QC version of Pinocchio but instead of lying it is ”righteously being a dick” and boobs growing instead of the nose.

If someone has difficulty with making good choices, then you need to validate and slap on the praises when they do make good choices so that it's affirming and will motivate them to do so again. If you downplay the significance of them going out of their comfort zone, then that will not help them feel empowered or rewarded enough to continue doing so.

I dunno - I feel like I'm out of step with consensus again. Most of this thread is supporting what Dale's doing but to me it's just enabling ongoing bad patterns that MarBear has. I'm not for a second saying he should have called her out in the way that May did but going along with demands for affirmation really isn't going to help Marigold in the long run. Obviously there isn't an easy answer but if I'd been in Dale's shoes I probably would have just gone with "Okay".

Edward Justice

At least she is announcing her illogic.

Kurious

I'm kind of amazed that May is possibly being the most mature one in this conversation..... Go May

ezazel

i'm getting a nine-year-old vibe for sure XD

They enlarge whenever she is able to righteously be a dick to someone. Which explains why they keep growing.

Scott Christian Simmons

There's probably a dial that she keeps fiddling with. And will keep fiddling with until somebody in-universe finally notices.

Do May's tits get bigger every time she's in a new storyline?

Shane Wegner

May's response isn't wrong, but Dale's is probably right-er.
