Nemi 4 Ormy

Ormondroyd

I feel that it's time I introduced you, my h2g2 friends, to the woman I love. True, there may be some barriers to our relationship: she is much younger than I am, for one thing. For another, I'm a human and she's a drawing. But even so, Nemi represents my feminine ideal. She has a mischievous wit, a sharp and questioning intellect, and a stubborn, glorious resistance to the acceptance of adult responsibility. She is loyal to her friends, libidinous, bibulous and beautiful. And you can meet her here: http://www.metro.co.uk/nemi .

Ormy, I have a confession to make.

I don't know quite how to tell you this, but I've been reading Nemi behind your back. It all started when I set eyes on her on a crowded No. 32 bus...

I've been doing a little research. Turns out Ormy's beloved is Norwegian: http://spray.nettavisen.no/kultur/tegneserie/nemi/

In Sweden, Nemi is currently published in Dagens Nyheter - new episode each day (only in Swedish, sorry):

Look far down on the right side...

I love these cartoons - they are so... so... graphic? Clean, clear lines, elegant...

I'm pleased to hear that my beloved is well-travelled. The whole smiley - earth should know of her genius and gorgeousness! However, I must say that I prefer her in colour. smiley - rainbow It certainly makes a difference to the way you view her blue-haired friend Cyan, and I like the distinction between the white-faced Nemi and the more conventional-looking people she meets and outshines. smiley - loveblush

Her being younger that you is not necessarily a barrier Ormy. It is how you treat her that is the important thing. All the best mate to both of you.

I can see what you see in her Ormy. Too bad the archive is backwards... Makes it a pain to read.

I've just been catching up on my beloved, and the May 22 strip made me smiley - cry. How painfully true it is. There again, the May 24 one is inspirational... smiley - biggrinhttp://www.metro.co.uk/nemi

Translation of the last frame:

"So which super hero would you like to be?"

"I don't know. I can't concentrate until I've had smiley - choc"

smiley - laugh Interesting - I'd not seen Nemi in that full-page (as opposed to strip cartoon) format before. Is that perhaps a weekend version that we don't get in Britain?

Anyway, there's a great daily strip today (July 28): http://www.metro.co.uk/nemismiley - cheers
