    Meanwhile, Sonny spends the next several minutes wondering whether or not if his face is really that bad before realizing Shauna might have just meant that in jest…

    Love the look exchanged between Lottie and Shauna in panel 2.

    C’mon, Ryan, how can you not remember Erin? You’ve met her before. Several times. You’ve been friends with her sister Shelley since you were 16. Shelley is your wife’s best friend, and was even maid of honor at your wedding. And you can’t even remember Shelley’s beloved little sister Erin? Sheesh, get dragged to Hell once and it’s like the whole world forgets about you.

    (I love that I can say things like that and they make perfect sense in context. NFT, baby.)
