"No context Thursday" is all about guessing the context of an Everett True strip without having any prior information about it. The full strip will later be revealed in a spoiler in the post body.

Obligatory disclaimer: NCT is completely optional to tune in for. Those who want to make a guess are free to do so. Regular comic strips are always allowed to be posted, even on NCT.

First panel: wife is looking in the mirror, Everett with a snide remark: "if you dont put on some makeup you are likely to break that mirror" Second panel: what we are currently seeing with the additional speech bubble from the wife: "you didn't put on any makeup, look what you did to the mirror!"

"Mrs True, I bought you this mirror so you could improve your fashion sense. Do you even know how to use it?"
