AWKWARD ZOMBIE

If I were an edit-fairy, I could probably draw a link between today's comic and this one.

Heheh, "draw a link."

I just realized that ancient piece of Nintendo beauty that Katie is playing. Ancient only of course because it isn't the newest of new things.

this also reminds me of this

Am I the only person who saw the answer straight off without doing any fancy maths or flipping stuff?

Well if you look past the circles the answer is obvious!

Also! Critical thinking is the key to success so you cant hate on Katie. Rofl.

If this strip is accurate and assuming you hadn't noticed it yourself, the right blue square is probably the one with a blue outline.

Oh, Asshole Shades, I love you.

I probably would have tried doing the same thing Katie did xD
MATHS

Hurray!
Real-life comics!

Those first two panels have just the best faces EVER.

Katie's face in the second panel reminds me of Hella Jeff.

Yeah, given historian fallacy that's easy to establish AFTER the comic has been made and the accurate blue square has been solved for, but try looking at it as though it were new information. All the guy says is "blue square". Does that mean "blue square that is physically blue" of which there are two of, or "blue square with the blue outline" in which case why in the hell are there two squares shaded blue? Making the person you're giving the test to have to assume half of the puzzle is just poor test writing. That's the kind of thing I expect out of chemistry, where you have to assume 80% things about 100% of the questions they give you, and even my chemistry teacher would say "That's not a very well written problem."

And yes, I am taking this way too seriously, and it is due in part to the chemistry test I have later today.

EDIT: And yes, I do often over complicate things.

I feel like asshole shades should be a new avatar fad.
Here's the gradient for them.

oh god I can so relate to this comic. Remember that puzzle that said "if this species of mouse produces 12 offspring per week and each offspring can produce more after 2 weeks, how many offpsring will one mouse produce after X weeks"? and then the answer was "None cause it's only one mouse"? I math'd that.

I am not good at math.
solving that
took
hours

This is just another reason why I will NEVER IN MY ENTIRE FUCKING LIFE play these games.
I don't like math puzzles. If I can get a Layton that is mostly logic, throw it at me.
But math? FUCK YOU LAYTON.

My God, it's like an advanced version of the "So a rooster lays an egg on a roof..." riddle, only it's formulated specifically to make biology enthusiasts feel silly...

What sort of monster came up with that?!
