basically, both my old men have brown eyes, my 2 sisters are blondes, and I've got brown eyes.

That’s just how it works. The reverse—blue-eyed parents having a brown-eyed kid—that's actually rare.

Ethan Price81 said:the baby is ten days old

That’s why I’m asking. Newborns often have dark hair, but it usually falls out later to reveal their actual light 😍

Amanda Barrett28 said:Two blue-eyed parents can have kids with brown eyes

Nope. That’s just basic genetics—and common sense.

Michael Newman50 said:edit: damn, Carol Jackson45 is laughing... total letdown.

I honestly can't picture you snuzdeno walking off with an axe and coming back. And I definitely don't need the mental image of you jerking it to a The Strokes CD. 😬

Rihanna is messing with my head again 🙄

Chris Morgan67 said:but when it comes to eye color, there’s no debate. two brown-eyed parents can’t have a blue-eyed kid

Actually, it's the opposite. Two blue-eyed parents can't have a brown-eyed kid.

For blue eyes to show up, the kid has to inherit the recessive gene from both parents. So, a blue-eyed person carries two recessive genes. Let's say that person is the father in this scenario.
If you pair his two recessive genes with two more recessive ones (from the mother), the kid isn't getting a dominant brown-eye gene from anywhere.

In the case you're talking about, it's not just possible—it's totally normal. A dad can carry both the brown and blue eye genes. He'll have brown eyes because that's the dominant trait. If he has kids with a woman who has the same setup (brown and blue genes), there's a one-in-four shot one of those kids ends up with blue eyes since the recessive genes hit the jackpot.

, I'm pretty sure hair color isn't just down to one single gene. But whatever... 🤔
Is it a huge outlier? How old is the kid?

Still Switzerland. "Half an hour later..." 😍

I really need to go back and reread all those old Alan Ford runs. Honestly, my biggest laughs from comics were always from Maximus. Marcelo, the poet 😍

Muuuu, a cow mooing in the barn
njiiiiii, a horse neighing in the barn

🙏

Back on topic. My top 4 favorite Huljica moments (not counting the bear ones)

1. seeing the little feet tapping 😍


2. (like Lucy van Pelt in American comics) 😍


3. (pretty sure I can see myself in this one)

😂

electro cute said:btw what would the traits of a human gremlin be? ugly as sin, always hitting the clubs, never showers, and only eats after midnight? 😬 sounds like a punk rocker when you put it that way...

Same here 😬 You only see them at night, usually soaked in beer (which counts as both water and food anyway) 😁

Here’s one for the DMV crowd. My top 5 favorite Asterix books based on pure vibes:

0. The Tricky Village

Objectively the worst of the bunch, including most others, but it gets third place because it was the first one I ever read. Specific memories: when they roll into town and bow to each other, and that time they dug a trench right through the middle of the village

1. Asterix in Switzerland

The whole thing about measuring time in "cuckoo" sounds, plus Swiss banks, cheese, and their obsession with being clean and staying out of politics... man 😍

2. Asterix in the United Kingdom

I mean, who could forget those lovely Englishmen who pause a battle just to go grab some warm water at five o'clock? Or the sheer treachery of mint sauce?

3. Asterix and Cleopatra

My first thought with this one is the house built by the best Egyptian contractor 🤣, then the Sphinx losing its nose (they buried it in the sand) 😍, happy crocodiles, the Egyptian food taster... and Cleopatra's nose

4. Asterix the Legionnaire

An Englishman legionnaire who actually enjoys military rations 😍
And let's not forget those omnipresent pirates 😍

5. Asterix and the Normans

Those foolish Normans trying to learn how to feel fear just so they can finally take flight

Daniel Bailey7 said:Yeah, obviously I meant them, I just couldn't think of the right name... haven't moved on to the guys yet. 😁

It’s not the same thing. Peter didn't want to grow up, while Mary was basically just an adult fairy who couldn't act her age. 😬

Back on topic. Here are the top 3 things that pissed me off last week:
First round of exam rescheduling is hitting.
Second round of exam rescheduling. Great.
Third round of finals rescheduling. Great.

Whatever, man. It's all just deep thoughts anyway. 😠

What’s your take on Mary? Is it cool that she’s talking trash about Peter? Feels a bit hypocritical to me.

Meh, honestly don't care. Heading out now to go sprinkle some glitter everywhere.

Top 3 creatures you definitely don't want to hang out with:
1. vampires
2. gremlins
3. Peter's people

Wronze 🤣 🤣 🤣

Congrats 👍

Post a photo of the thing so we can see what the hype is about 🙂

Orlan Tus said:even those who wanted to, but were stopped

😍

So how was it? Total silence here. Did you guys kill the crowd or what? 😬

Nicholas Perez33 said: 😍

Nice 😍

Samuel Murphy6 said:monitor? 😬

You want a touch screen? 😁

stormyviper11 said:because even the worst bands manage to find one loyal follower, and apparently, that rule holds true here too. ☕ 😬

Joe, I'm a fan of Lucky Strike myself. 😍

I've even got the original CD. 🥳

stressee said:Number one: that cat we lost. Gone. 😢

That your legendary cat? 😢 😢 😢

Top 5 street cats:
gray whiskers.
Black and white.
3. black
4. striped orange
Black, white, and orange—my favorite combo. I’m only obsessed because of my neighbor's legendary, aggressive cat named Oprah.

Zvonkec is a riot 🎉

Kevin Chavez3 said:just head down to the swamp, there's more antifa there and the crowd is actually decent 😬

I would’ve gone, was planning on hitting both, but things went south. 😢 Fingers crossed I can still catch the Buzzcocks given how everything's turned out.

boldscout72 said:...The Source. 😬

Looks like tomorrow’s gonna be fun. Orlan and The Source—total paradise for the carrot crowd 😍 🥳
