They have a fairly loose theme of the way people perceive things in the world through kind of a dual lens. Everything is either one thing or another, and we react to the experience, object, or whatever else it may be based on what and how we perceive it to be.<br /><br />strip 1.)<br /><br />http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1eLzIp6WGU8/TyQcfa70Q6I/AAAAAAAADso/MtIlja47Yec/s1600/425962_357663300912644_100000069315293_1437985_1975026862_n.jpg<br /><br />-duality of the world<br /><br />-the cultural tendency of people to classify things that are different as "better" or "worse", and to act on those notions accordingly<br /><br />-the relativity of values in society, and the contrast of that to philosophies such as Plato's theory of forms<br /><br />-the implication that this relativity of values plays on self betterment<br /><br />Strip 2.)<br /><br />http://i.imgur.com/weKNM2x.jpg<br /><br />-again, the duality of the world. people tend to classify things as "either this or that." in this case, funny or really scary<br /><br />-humor is used as a sort of coping mechanism for the nonsensical aspects of life, and is our way of reacting when we don't know how to react<br /><br />- in a way, this also goes back to the idea of emotional control popularized by stoicism. It ends with the decision to feel that something is either funny or really scary. two opposing ends of the spectrum<br /><br />I'm sorry I can't make it to the library tomorrow, but I have to work from 12:30-9pm. Feel free to text me if you guys need me to do anything, or if you have any questions for my part of the project. Layton should have my number. I might not respond immediately, but I will get to it as soon as I can.
