I'm not going to respond to pety bickering, I asked a question and got multiple answers. Which leads me to put more faith in 廣州話方言詞典's definition as "reason". I still trust that much of the historical meaning of the term according to you guys holds true, but honestly I am learning and will take on the definition that fits the situation best.

Anyhow I have another one:

佢同我同級㗎! 仲同理一間學校讀添!!

I didn't understand 同理 here, is it being used as a lazy 你?is it the same reason?

照常理,好似你咁出名,我應該…

照常理 is this a phrase in its own right, 照常 is business as usual but the char 理 keeps confusing me.



「同理 」here is  a typo,  the right word  in the comic should be 「同埋」( same together)

「佢同我同級㗎! 仲(同埋)一間學校讀添!!」( he and I were in the same year! Also attend to the (same) school ( together)!)



>照常理,好似你咁出名,我應該…
"Usually, someone so famous- like you, I should..."

照( following /according to)
常理( common sense reasoning / logic ),
好似你(like you)
咁出名( so famous ) ,
我應該…(I should)」
