C'est la Vie (webcomic)/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Life Imitates Art:- In one story arc, the überbitch Tiffany Nguyen humilates Mona over Lucas, publicly, in front of a works' social party. Mona seethes with fury, but is unable to retaliate openly as she knows Tiffany is Donna's boss. Anything she does might result in Donna's working life being made miserable. But Mona pledges evil and disproportionate revenge.

At the time this troper caught up with this story arc in the CLV archive, British TV was screening an imported live-action docu from Australia, detailing the life and work of Customs and Excise and Immigration at Australia's main airport and point of entry. One story was about two Vietnamese women who had just flown in from L.A. and who had been detained with a bag full of hard drugs, which they denied all knowledge of, claiming somebody had planted it on them. The show ended with the two Vietnamese-Americans being hauled off to prison (Prisoner Cell Block H?) and facing lengthy terms inside. The name of one of the two women?

Tiffany Nguyen.

Oh, Mona, you are not to be annoyed...
