[Is it cold in here?]

That's because they are so sensitive to my needs.

[Is it cold in here?]

I've read the comic for years, but never felt compelled to register/post until Xthform's post.

Welcome, sort of new person! Feel free to hang out in our quirky little world here.

[cesariojpn]

But I dont even know half the curses Yelling Bird uses ...

You're posting on the Internet, a forum for Porn; there has to be at least ONE site on the Internet for swear words and sexual references you can pull up for references. Or just make them up!!

[DSL]

My favorite YB curse to date has been "fuckpencil." Insulting, ridiculous and completely obvious. The only thing that would bother me about it is, I think Jeph used it self-referentially.

[Kugai]

Meh

Prefer Sweet Tits

[cesium133]

Welp. Guess we're going to be seeing some more of Jim, eh? 

[mustang6172]

Fourth pannel had this playing in my head.

Upon first reading that I was thinking of Jimbo and thought he and Veronica Vance seemed like a plausible couple.  They do work in similar fields.

For me it reminded me of this

Hello ladies!

[ysth]

Hannelore: "es gehts mir bourbon"

[Rghfrgl]

Veronica's to do list.

1. Drop by for a few days without calling first.

2. Humiliate Marten.

3. Continue to ship Marten with Claire or whoever other female cast member happens to be within 15 feet.

4. Visit secret bakery and pick something up.

[Aziraphale]

That's because they are so sensitive to my needs.

Okay, I have to ask: Lyle Lovett reference?

[Jazzmaster]

There's a face we haven't seen in a long time!

Now I wonder why she's here?  I am anxious to see if he drops a  "Marten's moving back to California" bombshell.

[Is it cold in here?]

Yes, Lyle Lovett.

Jeph may not repeat himself with Ms. Vance, but my imagination fails at thinking what she'll do next.

[Sorflakne]

Ooooooh shiii--

[Indicible]

Warum auf Deutsch?
In other news, Prost!

[Half Empty Coffee Cup]

Woah. Unexpected visit! But to what end?

Probably sharing the bourbon. Probably.

I think it is time for a Mother's conference. Just imagine what Veronica Vance and Hannermom might have to talk about. Faye's mother, while more timid, could also add some useful insights.

[Akima]

Marten and Faye need to change the locks.

I was talking about the fact that I am not a native english speaker and the vocabulary used there is simply completely alien to me.

Good question. No idea.

[Zebediah]

Marten and Faye need to change the locks.

I'm not sure that would help. VV has skills.

[Mlle Germain]

I just assumed Marten let her in. No need to pick any locks then.

[Method of Madness]

She might have still let herself out and picked the door after for fun.

[judemorrigan]

Mompocalypse now!

Basically, the net effect of Yelling Bird is to combine expletives with more common, everyday words

(click to show/hide)

eg. "shitbucket" or "fuckhammer"

to make profanity worse than normal. Or, simply put, making swearwords up to be as dreadful as possible.

On comic: Uh oh, indeed. Mrs Reed must have sensed something was wrong...

[FunkyTuba]

I wasn't expecting this. I don't know why I wasn't expecting this, but I wasn't.

[Zebediah]

I don't think anyone was expecting this, including Marten. If he'd known his mom was coming he'd have warned Faye.

[DSL]

Veronica laughs at your locks.
Really, one would suspect her line of work would of necessity include knowledge of how to bypass mechanical restraints. I don't think her organization is big enough that she Has People For That.

[Kugai]

No-one expects Veronica Vance!

[NilsO]

I wasn't expecting this. I don't know why I wasn't expecting this, but I wasn't.

It has been a while since we last saw VV, but her timing is perfect. This should be interesting.

[cesium133]

She can bring the Spanish Inquisition, if you can afford her price. 

[Zebediah]

She can be the Spanish Inquisition if you can afford it! 

[Detachable Felix]

She can be the Spanish Inquisition if you can afford it! 

Now, Cardinal Biggles, poke him with the soft cushions!
They don't seem to be working!
Did you put all of the stuffing up in one end?

Should you ever meet a woman from the US South, be careful not to mistake polite for "timid".

[Zwammy]

I'd add my distaste for Xthform, but it appears they are no longer around to see it. Good.

Indeed. Friggin' troll.

[Blackjoker]

The fact that Martens mom is there means HE might need to start hitting the bourbon, but of course his mom will have drank all of it.

[Method of Madness]

Nah, she's more of a scotch person.

[Method of Madness]

I guess Pintsize let her in, then?

[T]

I guess Pintsize let her in, then?

And asked for some services.

[Method of Madness]

Nah, Faye can throw him across the room anytime.

[SomeCanadianWeirdo]

Gotta say I'm a wee bit confused.  Why is Marten so totally freaked out?

[cesium133]

i assume she simply intimidates locks into unlocking themselves as an act of submission.

[Sidhekin]

Because of this.

Ah, thank you.  I quite missed that one.

[Schmee]

Oh wow, I only just got that reference. Pintsize, you are diabolical.

[themacnut]

Gotta say I'm a wee bit confused.  Why is Marten so totally freaked out?

Because of this.

That AND his mother showing up unexpectedly. With a mother like her, I'd be freaking out too. And climbing out my bedroom window.

So we know Marten is in store for utter humiliation and embarrassment for the rest of this week, and probably well into the next. I wouldn't even be surprised to hear that Ms Vance is not only moving to the East coast, but just rented the apartment right next door.

[anahata]

Because of this.

I spotted the visual gag and remembered the phrase that referenced it, but couldn't for the life of me remember where the words actually came from. So thank you for that.

[KOK]

As a butterfly, will Marten even be able to interact with the other characters? Or were they all just a dream anyway?

Marten loves his mother, but she tends to embarass him all the time. Also, she is very active in trying to get him hooked up with some girl. I guess this is common for most mothers, but VV might be a bit over the top.

The combination of his mother's unexpected presence, Pintsize's prophecy, and the reality of Faye's huge boobs covered in cake batter is probably too much for him. But if he really wants to change some shit, this could be good, because something is bound to happen.

[pwhodges]

He's not been a butterfly all along, but a chrysalis.  Perhaps now the butterfly will emerge (slowly and painfully, over another 1000 strips)?

I read that, and then I see Marten having a nervous breakdown and joining HAnnelore in apparent;y having psychotic inner voices.
