Heck, I'd bet Marigold can "triple-A" Paranoia 180 on 2x, Boost, Dark, and Reverse.

[akronnick]

She's un-self-consciously smiling. we don't usually see that from her.

[Sorflakne]

I must agree with Marigold; completing one's Tier armor set is indeed a time to start dancing IRL.

And I have to say I like Mari in pigtails.  Somehow they just seem to fit her perfectly.

Why is a teenage Sarah Palin playing WoW and dancing about finishing her set in the first panel?

You're trying too hard.

A teenage Sarah Palin would be too stupid to work a computer, much less play an MMO (and given the average IQ of an MMO player, that puts her pretty fucking low on the chain).

[Mad Cat]

Funny. I dance the exact same way when I make a big score on fleBay.

As for the Amazing Tai Undershirt Disappearance, Dora's shoulder rubs makes flannel move up and cotton-poly move down.

From Twitter:
fayewhitaker  spoiler alert: im a dude
marigoldfarmer  @pintsize0101 lol Sailor Venus more like Sailor Penis rofl

Is Jeff dipping his toes in the Transsexual Community Pool? On a semi-related note, I figured out what other character Marigold's been reminding me of in the far reaches of the back of my mind, Tedd Verres from El Goonish Shive in female mode with his glasses on.

[Blayze]

Which means she'd play a Hunter.

Which I why I believe she would actually manage that. Only she would have to be one of those which have to post sexy pics of themselves to stay in the guild.

[Mr. Doctor]

Brilliant strip. I've been in that situation

Marigold looks so cute in the third panel it's unbelievable

[Border Reiver]

Nice to see people happy - good way to start my day.

[Taigan]

Marigold's sooo cute there. 

[jwhouk]

Three words: Abby from NCIS.

That is all.

[TehBrynn]

I came all the way here to say I love Bill Watterson.
And also dancing wheeeeeeeeee.

[LeeC]

haha today's strip is adorably embarrassing for marigold 

[raoullefere]

At first I heard Ratt in my head (Dance, Dance, Dance) when I looked at this. A second read replaced that with K.C. and the Sunshine Band. Although, given Angus's initial pose, maybe it should be the Bee Gees.

[Arancaytar]

Marigold is almost as cute as Hanners was back when she was constantly snoozing on Marten's couch.

(Hm... Jeph seems to be ship-teasing Angus/Marigold alternately with Angus/Faye.)

[LTK]

Uh, speaking of Bill Watterson, does anyone remember that Calvin strip with a yelling bird? I only know the translated version, so I can't find it. I do remember that it's similar to Yelling Bird in almost every way.

The dancing is well done! The action text wasn't really neccesary, but whatever!

[sudamerican]

very yes. she looks very cute today

when are we gonna have a qc cast dance off or something?

[Kugai]

Definitely Bee Gees   

She does look kinda cute in that and, to my mind, a twin for Abby from NCIS.

[TheReaper]

I feel like Angus isn't getting enough love for this: He walked into his roommate's room, saw her dancing, and immediately joined in without an apparent second thought.

That is pretty cool, I think.

[Schmorgluck]

Come on people,TheWEmemesNEEDmustNEWflow!MEMES!

All your memes are belong to us.

I "awwed."

needs a bit more goth for that though

[schmeeble]

I'd like to see the storyline move back to Marten and Dora... to their moving in together backfiring and something climactic actually happening in this comic again.

y

[The Duke]

Yeah, I thought so too.

[ysth]

Wouldn't Dora want someone more responsible and stable than Tai?

Err ... thats why she went for Marten ?

Tai's the potassium to his argon.

Hey look I'm XKCD.

Except that it's Gunnerkrigg Court that has an obsession with elements.

[ysth]

I must agree with Marigold; completing one's Tier armor set is indeed a time to start dancing IRL.

Dancing, maybe, but is anything worth getting up from the computer?

Food. Drink. Restocking the mini-fridge with Red Bull.

[Kugai]

Love the T-Shirt.

[Mojo]

Come on, if you were unsure of your dance-drawing, you could have referenced my avatar...

[Shadic]

Man. He's really good at confusing the shit out of Marigold.

[Is it cold in here?]

Not so much at putting her at ease.

[Captain2]

Tsk tsk tsk, judging by her face, her head is about to explode at any moment

[akronnick]

OK, Now I think Angus is about to get smacked!

[Mr. Doctor]

The strip was so awwwww...

[Mad Cat]

Grind on my booty! Grind on my booty! Grind on my booty! Grind on my booty! Grind on my booty! Grind on my booty!

ROTFLMBO, literally

Edit: Changed ROTFLMAO to ROTFLMBO, because that's what I'm really ROTFLing and Ling O.

It seems like Marigold is surpassed only by Hanners in reticence to be physicly touched.

[Oh dear]

OMG, charleston win!

[Odin]

a twin for Abby from NCIS.

needs a bit more goth for that though

And about 30 more years of age. The woman that plays Abby is in her mid-to-late-40s.

[jwhouk]

"Dance…even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room."

...or bedroom, in her case.

Split the difference and you've got her. It's the cute dual ponytails.

So you think Marigold is 15-19 years old? Pretty sure she's in early-mid twenties like Hanners.

Also, Pauley Perette is 40. Damn fine looking 40, but 40 nonetheless.

[scrubadub]

Total laugh out loud moment on last panel of todays strip xD

And yeah, Pauley Perette is a damn fine 40 year old. I like to surprise people with that little tidbit of info, my Dad though she was in her 20's.

[scarred]

that chick looks like someone grabbed her face and stretched it horizontally and then pooped on it and maybe stabbed it a little too.

I thought the cast of QC was over the age of 25, except maybe raven and i think penpen said she was 22 at some point.

If Abby keeps looking like that in her 50s i'm gonna hit that so hard it'll cause the singularity

[Mr_Rose]

Faye asked Hannelore how old she was during the birthday/karaoke arc that led into her "relationship" with Sven. She said she was twenty-two then, but that was before the time-skip, so she could be 23 now. However, we haven't seen or heard of another birthday so that's not very certain.

[Border Reiver]

So far I'm enjoying my week.  The comics have been excellent, the artwork is definitely getting better - Jeph I commend you.

[MIB4u]

ok, who doesn't see Angus and Marigold together...?

[akronnick]

Angus.









For now.
