I took the sigh to mean something along the lines of "I'm am so over this having to sneak around bullshit, I'm a grown woman, this is retarded". A kind of "done with living at home" that can settle on a person soon to depart for college....

Looking back, I can totally see that too.

That was also how I took it, not only from its own context, but by analogy with the comic in which Penny sighs as she receives a text from her mom when pulling up to Aggie's house, and thinks, "Yes, mom, I'm still answering texts, I'm not gonna run away again, everything is fine, yes, yes."

Aww... *Hugs SniperCT*


And yeah, Penny's dress was hot. Wish we'd gotten a look at the shoes as well, but there was a caption box blocking them in the third panel.

Actually, I can see that too now. Especially since I'm kind of in that situation currently, so it's highly plausible Penny has the desire to be more relaxed about the situation.

Heh. As someone with a nearly 22 year old stepdaughter preparing to move into her first shared apartment this fall, another nearly 18 year old stepdaughter who thinks she's 22, and a nearly 17 year old daughter who thinks she's 20, believe me, the feeling cuts both ways! :lol:
CEOIII: I can't comprehend the idea that having sex with a willing partner is something to feel guilty about because afterwards that person ran like they just woke up with 3 dead coeds in the room.

Zanosuke Kurosaki... sgtrock wins the thread. :oops:

This. I don't think the precious snowflakes "done with living at home" can even begin to grasp how much This.
