Method of Madness:
In all fairness, the answer "do you think Hannelore would ever share her bed?" question is becoming less and less obvious. The rule is to stick to the general trend of the character, and if the story changes the character, there's no reason not to discuss that in the thread. Again, the romance in QC is hardly something I think often about, but merely suggesting that Marten and Hannelore might become an item in the future is hardly the crazy shipping it once was.
And cold, when you do the whole "(/moderator)" thing, it shouts "I am pulling rank". Which is fine once in a while in extreme circumstances, but you and the other mods do it far too often for it to really have any gravitas.

I doubt you're looking for validation, but I agree with this. Playing the "moderator" card is good when the situation calls for it, but...
Once again, I don't necessarily think she should be with Marten, but I also don't see Hannelore being a virgin forever and ever, amen. But that's just me.

Excuse me if I'm not quick to jump aboard the preferred couple hate train, but to my understanding, Marten and Hannelore are the topic of discussion right now because, well, that's what's going on in the comic. They're getting closer plain-as-day and Jeph really isn't being subtle about it either. If you have the right to assume that Marten and Hannelore will never progress any further in their relationship, I don't see why a few well-reasoned individuals can't speculate all the same the possibility that, hey, they just might become an item somewhere down the line. Both parties can come up with good arguments for the occurrence of either scenario.
After all, let's not forget: the only limitations Jeph's characters have are the ones he writes. Non-shippers have just about as much control over that as shippers do. Yet do I find it interesting QC canon doesn't seem to point in favor of the chaste and innocent Hanners maintaining her disposition forever, as many people are quick to believe. I like cute and spazzy Hanners as much as the next guy, but...the times, they are a-changin'.

Just a thought, do any of you guys actually have siblings? I don't recall the last time I've said anything to make my sister blush.
ysth:
So, Jeph mentioned Ctrl Alt Del on twitter; what was it that was so offensive? (The author caved and replaced it.)
Method of Madness:
Is this really the place for that?
Anyway, Tim (the guy behind CAD) replaced a moderately offensive joke with a joke that's almost as offensive, but doesn't work nearly as well.
