The Liography of Becky McGuire.

As you might or might not know, Becky McGuire is the latest incidental character about to be afforded the dubious privilege of an offical biography on the website. As howtheduck said, her story has all the factors that Beth loves to write about; we can look forward to her having a high-handed, self-absorbed, entitled asshole dad who wants to ram his authority down everyone's throat, a weak mother who either wrings her hands in impotent despair, plays ostrich or both when confronted with Dad the Evil Overlord's jackassery, the belief that the Pattersons are too pure for this ugly world, and a life of unremitting and insane unhappiness culminating with her abandoning her virtue for shiny beads and shallow flattery from the esteemed Jeffo. The really nifty thing is that we also have to deal with Lynn's premise that Ambition Is Evil; this means that John's ignorant ranting about how bird-in-a-gilded-cage Becky secretly envies the Pattersons and wishes that she had not thrown her friendship with April away out of her own selfish pride will be made the official truth despite the relevant strips making it abundantly obvious that April was the offending party. We will therefore be told that black is white and the Martian's insane desire to avenge herself against slights that only existed inside her fevered mind are the noblest acts of self-defense. We can also look forward to similar idiocy when Beth gets around to lambasting Mira and Thérèse in the next few years.
