That’s a nasty word in Estonian. I think you can figure it out – Finns may have a leg up, as I think it’s the same word in Finnish. But I’d say something like that in this situation, too.
So here we are again. For some reason I feel really lousy this week. Just unaccountably down and out-of-sorts. I’m a naturally nervy and kind of obsessive kind of person at the best of times, so it can be a struggle for me to fight down this kind of thing long enough to do a comic for the week. If you’re the same way, and you work in nay kind of competitive field like the arts or the applied arts, as I do, let me tell you: the answer is NOT to look at what anyone else is doing, because you’ll whip yourself up into a spiral of self-doubt and depression that’ll just run right out of control. I made this mistake this week. Don’t do it. Ugh.
Anyway, I’m going to try to get a fresh start tomorrow. All the best, everyone. See you next week!
MIKE brought out the creeper-stalker mode again?
What is he up to now?
Hahahaha! Mike in “Creeper Mode?”
🙂
ok, so this lady must have some of Mike’s jacked up nano assemblers. Othewise how could she see his magical glowery self.
….maybe… 😉
Also either Mike’s got some really angry eyes, or he could use a case of visine.
Ungrateful bitch Mike save you and your people!
He appears out of nowhere in the middle of the night, GLOWING.
‘I’ would likely freak out too.
Perhaps although I think she is being a bit moody
Women! *rolleyes*
Maybe MIKE will figure them out, but I’d not bet on it.
He knows what you did last summer!
oh yeah
You know… Finding the word vittu in a webcomic wasn’t really something I was expecting… But damn if it hasn’t made the day a bit brighter for some reason…
🙂
We do our best, like.
Consider that she is literally the enemy Mike has been designed, built and programmed to destroy. Yeah, there’s going to be a bit of tension in their meeting…
A very important observation. I’ll say no more than that for fear of saying too much!
That word is originally form Finland, as what now is Estonia used to be part of Finland before WW2, after the war Finland lost 10% of its territory to the Russians, and that part southeast of Finland became Estonia.
The two languages are closely related. But I believe Estonian independence predates the Russo-Finnish War.
You are correct, i made a mistake. Estonia was not even a part of Finland’s territory as it is south of Finland across the gulf of Finland.
Well, nation-states are something of an imposture anyway – I’m sure that culturally and linguistically the people have a great deal of similarity and interchange that doesn’t respect a line on a map just because some politician put it there. I mean, look at Canada, Mexico and the United States – as much as we like to have our borders and our ways of doing things, we’re all getting very closely related in spite of the imposition.
It is the same word in Finnish. I don’t speak Finnish, but I know that word.
I thought so!
