Panel 1: In the title panel of this Sunday-style colour comic, Barbara sits at a table, staring incredulously at her laptop.

Barbara: West...of...Bathurst...

Panel 2: Somewhere in Davies College, Barbara thrusts her fist into the air as Marie watches.

Barbara: That's it!

Marie: What's what?

Panel 3:

Barbara: Remember how I told you I was scheduled to defend on October twelfth?

Marie: Yeah, I--wait a minute--

Panel 4:

Barbara: Exactly. October twelfth is Thanksgiving! My supervisor forgot that. He gave me the date without bothering to confirm with the GSU.

Panel 5:

Barbara: Now he's finally remembered to schedule the actual defence. It'll be on--wait for it--November twenty-third. More thousands of dollars in tuition for Barbara!

Panel 6:

Barbara: RAGE! HATRED! FRUSTRATION! FURY! IMPOTENCE!

Panel 7:

Marie: I take it there are no words.

Barbara [buzzes off in an absolute fury]: There are plenty of words. Let me find some more.

Alt-Text: It is just barely possible that this comic exists because I too forgot that Barbara's defence was scheduled for Thanksgiving.
