| ::He's referring to the implied pun on the word "justified", which can mean "done for a good or legitimate reason" or "having been adjusted so that print forms a straight line on one or both margins." I'll clarify it.

− | The "alternative replies" suggested above are hilarious because they betray that their suggesters probably can't relate to compulsions well. To begin with, they begin with capital letters, while the comic lines don't! This is inconsistency. And then, they include trailing punctuation, repeated punctuation, spacing mistakes...

− | Maybe it's not worth mentioning, Rob doesn't start the conversation intending to synch line-lengths. His first comment "<rob> hi" is the same length as "<emily> ", so she can't possibly reply with the same length. His second comment is conversational too, but his third is probably lined up on purpose. I figure it's also worth noting to alternative-seekers, especially if he was compulsively making the line lengths match, he probably didn't give himself very much time to reply, and "definitely just sex" was the first thing that came to mind.

− | Here a few ways that could've worked out well, or at least better (all appended together to make easier to see the alignment) :
| |
− | <rob> hi
| |
− | <emily> hey you
| |
− | <rob> last night was nice
| |
− | <emily> the best i've had
| |
− | <rob> yeah it was AMAZING
| |
− | <emily> ok, i have to ask
| |
− | <emily> is this for real?
| |
− | <emily> or is it just sex
| |
− | <rob> em, it is for real!
| |
− | <rob> as real as it gets!
| |
− | <rob> it is more than sex
| |
− | <rob> i think i'm in love
| |
− | <rob> definitely in love!
| |
− | <rob> love is undeniable!
| |
− | <rob> i heart you verily!
| |
− | <rob> i want you forever!
| |
− | <rob> i want your babies!
| |
− | <rob> please don't leave!
| |
− | <rob> love is in the air!
| |
− | <rob> you and me, wedding
| |
− | <rob> sex good, love more
| |
− | <rob> justifiably in love
| |
− |
| |
− | I could think of more, but I got bored. --[[Special:Contributions/108.162.212.213|108.162.212.213]] 05:20, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

− | ::In which case, I suggest that the reverse is true instead. "Emily is away", is a parody or an extension of the idea in this comic. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.74.107|162.158.74.107]] 17:11, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
