I don't like Wil much, mostly for that storyline where Faye was made out to be the bad guy for not giving some random guy off the street an 'in' on her co-worker.

faye was made out to be the bad guy for sabotaging the random guy off the street and hoping to see fireworks instead of just telling him to fuck off

Still not seeing the problem.

[Norton Quintessential]

I think lolwut's getting at telling him to fuck off would have been OK, but what Faye was doing would've been annoying for Penelope and humiliating for Wil.

[Is it cold in here?]

It's the difference between putting up a No Trespassing sign and putting up a Welcome sign with a booby trap behind it.

Faye was embarrassed about that one herself. #1190.

[Rocketman]

humiliating for Wil.

If you're gonna walk in and ask some chick you've never met before to tell you how you can get your bone on with a coworker of hers.... well, you're begging to be humiliated.

[Lyrical]

Pintsize is extremely annoying. 

[laizeohbeets]

Pintsize drives me up a WALL.

I'm also not a huge fan of Dora or Sven.

[Zingoleb]

That guy who does the newsposts.

[Jace]

humiliating for Wil.

If you're gonna walk in and ask some chick you've never met before to tell you how you can get your bone on with a coworker of hers.... well, you're begging to be humiliated.

Actually, if you read the comic that it starts with, he originally just comes in to ask when she'll be in next.
1186 is the one.
It is then Faye who cuts Wil off, and then sets him up for humiliation using the guise of helping him.

[Soulsynger]

I've grown deprecative of Marten...
As off late he only seems to be the playball of whatever storyline or event occurs around him. In my opinion he has totally lost his persona and character stability... ~~

Sometimes I just want to kick him in the crotch and make him say
"I am not just a clever line at the end of a comic featuring one or two musical remarks, I am a free man and I hurt SO BADLY in my crotch!"

Favourite is Hanners because of her originality.

[Thiefree]

I like Faye as a character. If I knew her in real life she'd piss me off endlessly, because there's never an excuse for bitchy behaviour, but as a character she's entertaining.

Same goes for Pintsize.

But, Soulsynger, I agree about Martyn... seems like the most interesting thing he ever does is say something sarcastic and / or passive aggressive, and Dora or someone says "OMG were you just sarcastic and / or passive-aggressive?" and it's a huge deal. Surely he can't be that dull.

[raoullefere]

I actually know—well knew—someone exactly like that. Prided herself on being dull, too. So go figure.

I think Marten's supposed to be in a funk lately, though.

No, I don't mean Deathmole is trying a new style.

[ThePianoMan]

I don't much like Penelope either.

[Surgoshan]

I don't much like Penelope either.

She and I would get along like super friends.

[Soulsynger]

I don't much like Penelope either.

She and I would get along like super friends.

Mainly because of your perverted fetish for pizza?

[lolwut]

.... or IS she? 

[giant_bug]

Pintsize is extremely annoying. 

Pintsize is evil.  But he's really really tiny, so it's OK.  He's like a cat.  If cats were as big as collies, they'd be insufferable and nobody would put up with them.  But when you're that tiny, evil is cute.

[Surgoshan]

Cats aren't evil.  Cats are awesome.  A cat is a liquid that keeps itself in a solid shape because it wants snuggles.

[raoullefere]

If cats were as big as collies, they'd be insufferable and nobody would put up with them.

What do you mean 'if'? Some cats are as big as collies. In the U.S. they're called pumas. "Insufferable" is, I suppose, one way to describe our attitude towards them, since we're working on killing them off so we can live in places with 'views.' On the other hand, I can't recall the figures for people who keep even bigger cats as pets (something like 10,000), but it's large enough to disprove your theory. Obviously 'somebody' (in this case, suicidal idiots) doesn't feel this way.

I do agree, though, that were Pintsize, oh, say, Tengallonsize, he'd probably have been scrapped long ago as a menace. At the same time, I sometimes wonder if Marten's programmed him to be this way, to get away with stuff Marten thinks he himself cannot.

[championofkhorne]

I dont think marten knows enough programming to alter complex personalities. I think pintsize's crazyness is from a list of viruses and trojans slowly eating away at his hard drive

[Is it cold in here?]

He is, after all, a Windows machine.

[maddness]

I dont think marten knows enough programming to alter complex personalities. I think pintsize's crazyness is from a list of viruses and trojans slowly eating away at his hard drive

So you're saying he has syphilis?

[championofkhorne]

at least

ROBOAIDS

like beast man aids, for anyone who was around for that internet phenom

[Mr. Skawronska]

I like Faye as a character. If I knew her in real life she'd piss me off endlessly, because there's never an excuse for bitchy behaviour, but as a character she's entertaining.

You know, I think that sums up my opinion of her, except I enjoy anytime she's hurt.  As a character, I find her the most satisfying, because of the joy her character provides as a focus of my hatred.  So, love the Faye character in the comic, becuase she's there for me to hate, despise, and happily heap derision upon.

Yay, Faye, you bitch!  Take another one in the chops cuz Uncle Scotty needs a cheap laugh!

[Is it cold in here?]

Pintsize, though, did keep his usual personality after a virus disinfection: #269.

[sporky800]

I really can't stand Hannelore.  I thought she was cute at first, but got tired of her really fast because she's a very one-dimensional character.  and the fact that she's in practically every strip these days is only making her more annoying to me. Penelope also has a tendency to get on my nerves...
I like all the other characters, though!

[Thiefree]

I don't much like Penelope either.

penelope isn't pizza girl

.... or IS she? 

Nope. Pizza Girl had freckles. And smiled sometimes.

[Mr. Skawronska]

Mmmm...Pizza.

I could never date Pizza Girl.  She'd complain I only pay attention to her when she's working.

Mmmm...Pizza.

[Helios05]

For all the Steve- dislikers, I question whether or not it is a dislike or merely we feel a bit of pity for him. He's kind of turned into nothing more than a basket of non-stop relationship problems when we see him, ever since the first break-up with Ellen over the whole "moving too fast" issue. So now he's either a raging alcoholic on par with how Faye used to be, or being emo over the fact his love life is shitty. He's kind of a gag character now, just someone to pull out of a box so Martin can have that one (one) guy friend to talk to about guy stuff, though to be honest that never really happens either.

As for characters I dislike, it has changed over time, first I didn't like Faye then Dora. Faye originally cause she was a bitch to certain un-understandable extremes, even finding out about her father's death didn't completely redeem her. Now that she is changing, she acts more like a person someone would actually want to be friends with, still an asshat at times, but a fun asshat. Dora has gone from being somewhat depressed, yet still possessing a strong backbone, to now, where she claims to be in love with Martin but is overly paranoid as shit about it jumps at honestly little things.

[lily-kiernan]

Hmm. I WANT to hate Sven, but I find that I really like him. Dora is pretty 2-dimensional as of late (pun intended), as does Marten. I do not care for Pintsize as much anymore, but he has been out of the picture for a while.

And hey, don't rag on Wil. He's badass. MEGA badass. I also like him and Penelope as a couple, they're sweet.

I LOVE HANNERS. She's amazing, and I think her OCD is demonstrated really effectively.

[Cartilage Head]

Dora is two-dimensional, as does Marten.

[Junodog]

I have compassion for mentally diseased people. They need help. But it's obvious Dr. Corrine isn't giving Hannelore the help she needs. She's invading other people's lives to an insane degree here.

Two things here:
1. It has never been stated that Hannelore has not improved in the long run.  For all we know, she was ten times worse when she was younger.  Some people (I know this from experience) can improve tremendously and still have their disorders preventing them from behaving in a normal way.
2. Counseling takes so much time to be effective it hurts.  Again, I know this from experience.

But eh.  I could be wrong about her improving.

[Is it cold in here?]

Hannelore has made friends and stepped out of her comfort zone. As far as we know, she's no longer alphabetizing the magazines in her therapist's office. She's made progress.

[lily-kiernan]

Dora is two-dimensional, as does Marten.

Shuddup. It was originally "Dora seems pretty two-dimensional lately, as does Martin" but then I remembered that hey, what the fuck, this is the internet and it's fine to assert my belief, so changed it to "Dora is pretty two-dimensional" and forgot to change the rest of the sentence.

I'm only saying this because I saw your post without reading mine first, and I was thinking, "Ha, the stupid fucker has no grammar sense." Then... wait...

[raoullefere]

lily-kiernan, for that post you deserve an Internet. Best laugh I've had in two days.

[lily-kiernan]

I know. But failing on the internet is a major symptom of OCD. So... I guess I deserve it?

[mayfly]

Detested Meena.  She played Steve from the minute she met him.  She made sure she controlled the situation and let him fall for her, then wham, "Oh yeah I forgot to tell you I live with my ex."  I am thankful she is gone.

Oddly, I never even noticed that. Or paid attention. But thank you, I shall concur.

Dave is a douche for proposing to another guy's girlfriend, and she is a bitch for accepting

QFT

Quoted again for truth^2.

I'm torn on Angus, I think he has potential to be a good guy and all but right now he is just so NEEDY and clueless. Kind of reminds me of one of my exes that way. (Which is probably why I can't bring myself to really hate Angus just yet.)

[championofkhorne]

Dora is two-dimensional, as does Marten.

they are all two dimensional because they are drawn on a flat screen

[Siibillam-Law]

Jeph should have a special 3D strip, and we'd all have to gho out and get 3d glasses.

That would be a good strip

[championofkhorne]

that would be such a hassle, I'd rather just OH GOD THE BIRD JUST RIPPED THROUGH THAT HAWK FUCKING AWESOME

[muffin_of_chaos]

Hannelore is my favorite character.  Every other character is completely predictable.  Hanners' perspective and reactions and the dynamics of the two when they collide really is fairly unique, and I appreciate it muchly.

I sort of hate every other character except Wil, Penny and Faye.  Dora and Marten have gotten excruciatingly boring for me, and the others float in such wide, eliptical and fairly uninteresting orbits they're pretty pointless.
Especially Pintsize.  At some point his existence may have been funny...but I just don't get why he's in the comic anymore.  He's...sort of a troublemaker?  He helps Hanners react to a wider range of things?  I guess.

Still, let it not be said I don't like this comic, as I do, for many reasons.  Especially parts that strike me as hot, such as the most recent one that reminds me a lot of my girlfriend.  If you're a guy, you don't get to hear enough from women about how they actually might want sex.  Pretty good for the libido to be reminded that women can get as horny as guys can (so many of 'em seem socialized to not broadcast sexual urges).

[Barrabas]

This is why the internet should have a border patrol.

[muffin_of_chaos]

This is why the internet should have a border patrol.

Hey, it's not like I find the characters attractive.  But the scenarios they find themselves in help me envision similar situations in my own life.
Don't really see how Pintsize could ever remind me of anyone in real life...

[Rocketman]

Because humans are attracted to human qualities?

[Mr. Skawronska]

Heaven forbid.

[DarcOfTheShadows]

I find myself liking Hannelore less and less as time goes on. Her character's been exaggerated a bit too much, and while it's still believable and funny, she gets way too much focus. I don't like reading a steady storyline of comics then all of a sudden cutting to Hanners doing something completely unrelated for no good reason. I loathed Meena, glad she's out of the picture. Angus is kind of irritating, but endearing enough to make it work. I despise Pintsize. He's simply not funny.

The bird. Everytime I'm thinking to myself "Yay, new QC comic tonight!", refresh my browser till 2 hours past bedtime, then wake up in the morning to go check what was posted, and that.... THING.... shows up, my forehead is grateful that I'm no anime character.

[Is it cold in here?]

For those who don't like Meena, did you ever notice that "Meena" is an anagram for "enema"?
