--- Quote from: DeathbyChiasmus on 14 Apr 2011, 19:52 ---Dude. Marten and Hanners are totally moirailin' for each other.
Just sayin'.
--- End quote ---
You know, previously I was ready to devalidate this statement and point out that they both have pretty full pale quadrants, but honestly? I think you may be onto something. They've always kind of done conciliatory flirting back and forth, for one. Faye has practically 'rail-dumped Marten for Dora at this point, for two. And Marigold has got to be an Ampora-style pain to be in a moirallegiance with; I love her, but honestly, the girl is all about her own FEELINGS and PROBLEMS.
So yeah I will totally ship Marten ♦ Hannelore. All the diamonds, all the fist-b♦nps and bro-hugs. :D
EDIT: ...ffffffff someone (who knows what I'm talking about and is part of the surprisingly small crossover of MSPA fans and QC fans) needs to do a fanart of Marten as Equius and Hanners as Nepeta. IT WORKS, YOU KNOW IT DOES

--- Quote from: ysth on 14 Apr 2011, 23:30 ---So, Jeph mentioned Ctrl Alt Del on twitter; what was it that was so offensive? (The author caved and replaced it.)
--- End quote ---
The fact that Jeph even reads that sex-offender's webcomic is a pretty damning commentary on Jeph being able to take the high ground in any discussion about the characters in QC. The author of CAD is internet-famous for getting busted trying to get a 14 year-old girl to meet up with him for sex and sending her pictures of his dick; well, that and the ongoing stupidity in pretty much every strip he posts and the callouts about it on thirteen different forums, the parody strips on other webcomics, etc.
At this point CAD seems to only exist to provide fodder for other people to make fun of it.

--- Quote from: Forum rules ---And finally, shipping and portmanteau names. You don't do it in real life (I hope!); it fails to meet the criteria I mentioned under "QC" and "Discussion" above; it fails for the reasons given in the quote just given. Please don't do it!

Take this seriously.

Not being snarky here...I honestly don't understand what the above means? Could you translate please? :?
/I would prefer not to inadvertently tick someone off..
--- End quote ---
It means that Hannelore is Jeph's Virgin Mary character and ever speculating that she would have a romantic or sexual interest in anyone, ever, is against the rules of the forums and blasphemy according to Jeph, the Pope of the Church of QC.
Never mind that even the "real" Virgin Mary had, like, 4 or 5 kids by two different dads.
Dr. ROFLPWN:
Jeph doesn't normally read it-- someone just linked it in his drawing stream and he took a gander. Ninja'd by tender but yeah.
(daaaaang Odin calm down I mean I got my problems with Jeph and his policies, but calling a dude a CAD reader is over the line, that is a slur in and of itself)
Having also taken a gander at it, I can say with candor that it is impressive how positively racist Buckley manages to be without using a single inappropriate term! It's like magic, only it's shitty and horrible.

--- Quote from: Odin on 15 Apr 2011, 03:04 ---The fact that Jeph even reads that sex-offender's webcomic ought to tell you something about Jeph.
--- End quote ---
Jeph hearing about the strip through through the grapevine is much more likely than whatever you're trying to imply.
--- End quote ---
If you think I'm implying anything, English must be your second language.
CAD has been an internet meme for "web comic written by sex offender" at least since late 2009 when I heard about it (that and jokes about how Tim can't draw hair and instead makes it look like everyone has birds on top of their heads). There is even a "Tim Buckley is a fucking moron, and this thread is where we will track his constant fuck ups" thread over on the SomethingAwful sub-forum dedicated to various fuckups you'll find scattered around the internet.
And... checking that thread where they're talking about this now, there is this choice quote about the current incident, for those that are curious:
--- Quote ---Really? REALLY? FOUR VERSIONS?
Wow, four versions. Four versions, and not a single one funny.
He sure did agonize over this one everybody.
I love how he brings up the "WELL I'M JUST NOT OFFENDED BY COMEDY" thing - showing he completely has missed the point. Stand up comics make race related humor, sure, but they do it in a different manner and have some tact. Their jokes are also more clever. What Tim has done is the equivalent of a comic just standing on stage and going "MAN THOSE BLACK PEOPLE SURE DO LOVE FRIED CHICKEN M I RITE?!" and that's it - that's the punchline, he's not leading into anything at all.
It's such a train wreck, this is seriously why the thread exists.

akronnick:
And now people who don't read CAD, know all about CAD and would never read it, have never heard of CAD, hate Tim Buckley and CAD, or read CAD religiously but would never admit it are not only visiting his site, but reading two separate versions of today's comic and talking about it and most likely linking to it all over the internet.
Nothing attracts eyeballs like controversy.
Well played Mr. Buckley, well played.
