No, you're misreading the situation. Charlie starts smiling when Nick says, "And then her dog died", because in that moment he realizes how sweet, caring, and utterly good Nick is. That smile was Charlie thinking, "OMG, this guy is so sweet and caring that he didn't want to cancel a date with someone, a person he is not into whatsoever, because they were already having a horrible day!". That was the smile of a man who realizes how lucky they really are.

@@SSJ2Phenom Apologies. I often forget the internet is utterly humourless.

@@michaellong9341 Context is hard to glean when absolutely none is offered. If you were joking; why not add an emoji like this one 😏 or this 😁 or 😜? Perhaps even an LMAO or LOL? No? My apologies, I forget that those attempting to joke around on the Internet are absolutely horrible at it.

@@SSJ2Phenom 'They are perfect for each other because they're both monsters!' should have been indication enough that the comment was not a serious one. Don't worry, next time I'll be sure to add a klaxon, lights and a big arrow with 'Not Serious' on it.

@@williamzinedineh I am!! Feeling so much better too 😊

@@LS-tj2ho I was taking a break for Thanksgiving and when I got back we were all very sick so had to take more time for that. Now we’re feeling better and starting the new year strong! It’s gunna be a good year for sure!

Sorry to hear that. Glad you’re better now.

@@becksyno7 I’m excited!

@@georgeweatherford1027 Same! That looked like a lot of fun!

@@zacksnerdpack we need more of the "found family" shows in the sphere of LGBTQ+ entertainment. It is a very real part of most of our lives.

@@georgeweatherford1027 I’ve been sick as hell for a couple weeks, before that I was just taking some time to spend with the family for Thanksgiving week. Feeling better and ready to rock!

@zacksnerdpack family? You have kids???

@@georgeweatherford1027 I have a wife and son yes, I’m not as young as I look 😂 not calling myself old by any means but I’m used to people thinking I look younger than I am.

@@zacksnerdpack nice. You just dashed a lot of hopes up in here lol. And I wouldn't put you a day over 40.

@ I’m 28, I’m not even 30 yet but people still look at me funny and ask for ID so I’m used to people thinking I’m a teenager especially when I shave.

Adding to that, the story begins in January of an arbitrary year but based on social context it clearly is “around now. I’d say you can think of it in the world of 2010 forward, until… ? The setting is semi-vague but based on things Alice has said I don’t think it constitutes a spoiler to say it is in the SE of England, in the suburbs of Kent. The end of volume 5 has a calendar, showing the months as they correspond to the graphic novels and showing a few key events to help line things up. It would be a bit of a spoiler to look it up unfortunately. It’s pretty easy to align the Netflix shows with the graphic novels and the months-they don’t all end in the same place although the same events are ultimately shown.. The time-line is significant, and… well, we can catch you (Sack) up every end of season.

​@@joerosenman3480Kent is a county - the equivalent of a state in the US. Truham is the name of the fictional town in Kent.

@ Thanks for the clarification. Are counties in England really that independent? In the US, our States have their own independent governance-full legislatures, executive & judicial branches, and are comprised of multiple counties (which have towns, villages, hamlets & so on-probably just like England & most of the UK). But of course, the US is geographically much larger so levels of sub-division are practical-and our States have an historical basis originating from distinct colonies as I suspect most English citizens know from grade school. 😉 Alice Oseman comes from Kent, so I guess it’s reasonable she set her story there absent a reason to locate it elsewhere. In any case, this New Yorker just wanted to provide some helpful context for our host and any interested participants. Anyone able to add to the little bit I’m able to put on the table just makes the banquet richer! 🍂 🍃 🌸 🌺

@joerosenman3480 not anything like States in the independent sense just in a geographical sense. A county, like a state is an area of the country just like Yorkshire or Lancashire or Cornwall or Devon etc. It does have some county identity and has towns and cities in it that give the area a share identity and often accent. Also the counties, though smaller than the states, have ancient histories too. It's the same as most countries in the world which are divided into counties or provences.
