Throg:
There comes a point where one has to adopt the hand-waving, it's-for-the-sake-of-a-punchline acceptance.
Along with the sentient AI's, what about the teleporting cappucino maker? Some grad student chick working in a coffee store can whip that up? What are the implications of that tech? :-P
TinPenguin:
Quite.

To run away on a tangent, is there any kind of consensus as to roughly how much time has passed in the comic?
kent_eh:
Robot chefs can be some fine comedy too:

i vote for a hologram :-P

Unfortunately, this would most likely add to the cost of printing the book, which would then add to the final price of it. Which would then mean fewer copies of said book being sold. So a hologram would probably not be a good idea.

hmmm....good point. the only other thing i could think of would be one of those silly move-the-limb-on-a-rotating-tabby-device-thingamabob*.....which could be fun in a silly way but could also end up being incredibly hokey.
*what the hell are those things actually called?? I would google it, but i doubt my term of choice would give me any productive results lol
also- i love the new little sister-esque Momo. I think for Mari, this new chassis could make her take Momo a little more seriously. She's always had Marigold's best interest in mind but due to her size (and stinkin' cute outfits) it's been hard for Mari to really take what she says to heart. I think Mari could learn a lot about socializing and taking care of herself, plus they kind of have a cute roommate vibe now. Yes, she's essentially a computer, but lots of people learn things from computers :-) Only difference is that Momo can figure out exactly what Mari needs and how to help her attain it rather than having Mari sit down and type all of her problems into a search engine.
Kwaping:
Did anyone notice Momo's arm joints disappeared after she took ownership of the new body? Intentional or oversight?
