Sweetie, if you don’t remember a day when Good Times were only visible through the distorted lens of The Future, then you had a High School experience very different from the one that I remember.
But then, this comic strip isn’t really meant to resonate with people who are actually experiencing High School, so I guess it’s probably All Good with the target audience.
I remember reading something that said “history is a record of wars with periods of peace in between.” or something like that. (maybe someone else knows what im talkin about?) that seemed reasonable to me.
The episode of Sunny In Philly “Underage Drinking” deals with this topic as well. as always in a hilarious fashion.
“Do you guys even remember high school? I don’t think it happened the way you think…”
i will say there are definite times where i presently think “im having a good time” and still believe it was a good time years later. like the time i played strip scavenger hunt on a cruise. definitly good times

“Even the good times are bad
Soon as I get to you baby
You just gotta hold me, and even the good times are bad.”

Good Times, Bad Times, you know I had my share;
When my woman left home for a brown eyed man,
Well, I still don’t seem to care.

The next time someone asks me what I’m doing, I will respond with “I’m hunting. . .Hunting for good times.”

So what if happy is defined by the absence of sad or angry? So what?

My everyday life is pretty awesome. I turn the faucet, and clean water comes out. I turn on the internet and I get Cat & Girl.

Maybe the comic was constructed by someone who never trully experienced a “good time”?
A thing to ponder…

Nny,
I’ll add to your War/Peace anecdote Hitchcock’s characterisation of Drama as Life with the dull bits cut out.

This is oddly sweet. Thanks.

Life is mostly dull bits. The Good Life is the peaks, with amnesia during the lulls.

This reminds me of a poem by Federico Garcia Lorca, New Songs.

Hunting for Good Times in the past is a losing proposition. Sure, they’re easier to find there, but they’re impossible to catch.
