I’m kind of wondering if Terrence knows what words mean, or if he just randomly chooses words to insult people. Sarah’s behavior could be described many ways, but “nosey” isn’t really one of them.
Frankly, none of the rest of the insult applies either. It sounds to me like he hit on her and she rejected him, that sounds like usual sort of dudebro projection.
With respect to all; while it’s a very hateful thing for him to describe her as, Sarah has been a canonically promiscuous character, so “half-the-town” is mere hyperbole. Whether or not she practiced safe sex with all her lovers remains to be seen.
Then again, if I recall, Ruth is ACE so that might not be an issue for her at all: perhaps they’ve only cuddled or gone on dates
UnCONventional is a comic that ran from December 2009 to December 2019 about the staff of a small town anime convention and their lives. This is a complete online archive of the comic.

So, will this end with a 16 ton weight crushing him and removing him permanently from the comic?

Time to get a Restraining order Ruth, maybe also talk Sarah into getting one too.

I’m not really sure why you’re trying to justify a line literally written to be something only a hateful, awful person would say
