    yayyy i’ve been waiting for this one! lol

    love it! and i am only slightly concerned there are no handles on the lockers to get the old lady some clothing heheheh.

  2. Leslie

    ROFL! I love it! So is this drawn (no pun intended) from personal experience? Boy do I remember those days, of seeing far too many elderly naked ladies before breakfast. Though I suppose with my chosen career I will have to get used to that. ;)

  3. Irma

    ocb: Thanks for pointing that out! I’m going to add locker handles as soon as I get home. That detail just didn’t come to me at ALL when I drew it.

    Leslie: God yes, this is an all-too-often occurrence. Fortunately, I don’t have to face it before breakfast like you did!

    It’s times in the gym locker room when I’m glad I can’t see too much without my glasses.

  5. Irma

    Okay! The locker handles are there now :D

    Heather: I usually have my contacts in… so I am just always trying to stare at my feet!

    MY EYYYYYES!!!!!

    My ONLY slight criticism on this one and it’s very minor: The speech bubbles in the first panel were a tad confusing at first only because of the height and placement of each bubble. I wasn’t completely positive who was talking first.

    But on the flipside of that, your backgrounds are beautifully rendered. Specially the lockers. Simple but instantly recognizable.

    I love this strip. Very, very funny. Nice setup to the final panel. “Sweet Jebus” is right.

  8. Irma

    Wit: I agree and was a bit afraid of that. I tried having the first bubble up and to the left, and the second one down and to the right, but the “arms” of the bubbles were crossing over the characters and I hated the way it looked. Then I tried having both bubbles on one side, but it looked uneven. So I tried to go with this, but I was afraid it would be confusing. I may want to try and fix that later tonight. (updated: DONE!)

    And thanks so much about the backgrounds! At first I was afraid they were going to be too much. But it worked out rather nicely and I’m pleased with the end result.

    Scott: Thanks so much Scott! :D

    how did I end up in your comic? ;)

  10. Leslie

    I didn’t notice the missing locker handles myself, but now that you have added them, and even a lock, it’s a nice touch! :D

  11. Scott

    hey, nice word balloon change to the first panel. It does flow smoother now.

  12. Wit

    Yeah, I like that too!. You could’ve even taken it a step further and offset the girls by moving them to the left slightly but this makes the reading a lot smoother. Well done!

  13. me! (pd guy)

    I thought this kinda stuff only happened in the mens’ locker room. Now you’ve killed the illusion for me. I’ll never look at women the same way again.

    And I definitely have no interest in peeking in a womens’ locker room again.

    Okay, that’s a lie.

  14. Bio

    Holy Crap! How the hell did you get gran in there? And I thought my days of seeing her naked body were over. Now she is memorialized in a comic strip.

  15. amanda

    It’s funny cause it’s SO true!!

  16. Master David Goodmen

    I refuse to make fat jokes, on the premise I might be talking about Myself. UGH!!

  17. Centaur71

    Been there, done that, got the T-shirt; NOT PRETTY! 8-O

  18. OverheatedWraith

    It’s worse in guys locker rooms. There’s -always- a couple naked old men with 1 foot up up on a bench, with everything just dangling there. 3 of the 4 gyms in my town have this issue, and the 4th I refuse to even enter, that place is just plain creepy.
