Just gotta ask, am I the only one who actually *likes* Clinton? He may be a little creepy, but it's all well-meaning, enthusiastic creepiness.
gangler:
I can't decide if I love Clinton or hate him. It could be both.
As much as I can entirely appreciate his viewpoint, it seems like he should also maybe try and understand that the biggest concerns aren't always the most important in our day to day lives. Macro's cool and all, but you still gotta operate on the micro no matter how much you might wish otherwise.
It might help though if I could figure out exactly what his deal is. Is he stupid, or crazy, or what? I mean for a guy who seems to take a lot of interest in the subject he has an odd tendency to occasionally slip into self-evidently false information, or to take the simple to outlandish conclusions. That all could easily be another manifestation of his complete lack of social graces though. He seems to lack the filter that would prevent a normal person from vocalizing certain thoughts. It might actually prove enlightening to see what his thoughts on the issue look like after he writes them down and organizes them, as I assume his school requires on occasion.
He's probably too relatable for me to genuinely dislike though. Like looking in a funhouse mirror.

Hush, I could've done worse. Sci-Fi is littered with enough stupid tech it's not remotely funny.

Vacuum tubes are sexy. That, or in the QC universe, Nerd Guys are about on par as Import Models in terms of popularity in hotness form. Of course I could be crass and say that she's looking at the QC version of a Sex Doll. A fully autonomous sex doll.

For comic #2072...
1. Art-wise, interesting height comparisions of the quartet. Hannelore is noticably taller than the rest of them, and Marten is the same height as Hanners, which means he is pretty tall too? Which asks the question of who among the QC-cast would be considered "average" height?
2. Also art-wise, not sure what it is exactly, but Hannelore's lips look very strange. Perhaps it is the front-angle &/or the coloring.
3. When someone, even a robot, looks at a magazine in such a vertical fashion and with such an expression on their face, one generally draws the naughtier conclusion :evil: . Makes me wonder what kind of "Applied Robotics" is being showcased in that magazine... ("Look at the hardware ports on that one! I would totally RAM-interface that!")
4. I also do not disagree with Clinton's opinion. "Techno-complacency" is one of the major reasons NASA is all but shut-down :cry: , and why we have so little scientific research purely for scientific research, rather than for what can be profitable from it. It can be said that we are not reseraching science, we are strip-mining it.
5. Conversely, thinking too much about it as Clinton has been wont to do is just as bad. Either you wind up not being able to think beyond what you see (thus severely limiting creativity) or you wind up obsessing over it over any other ideas (see: "nerd rage!").
6. Uh-oh... Jeph is starting to check in the WCDTs again...? That is like The Spirit of Sauron starting to coalesce into the Lidless Eye of Mordor. Soon he will send out his pwhodges and Is it cold in here?'es into the forums to lay waste to us all (wait- does Jeph even have 9+ board moderators...? Maybe I should have used a Marvel's Galactus reference instead... :psyduck: ).
idontunderstand:
I can actually relate to what Hanners is saying in the last frame. I mean, not as far as getting a panic attack but my stomach made several turns whenever I looked up and realized just how insignificant I am and how large the world is and how many places I will never see in my lifetime. Dunno how I got over it, really.
