I can't get the Portal theme out of my head after that last panel. "Look at me still talking when there's science to do..."

sitnspin:
That is EXACTLY how my girlfriend would respond in Marigold's situation. Given that she is studying to be an astronomer, she would love this place.

cesium133:
For the question on Jeph's Twitter page, what will happen to the apple depends on what kind of laser it is. If it's a pulsed laser, then the apple will end up with a bunch of holes shot into it. If it's a continuous wave laser, then, depending on how powerful the laser is, then most likely the apple would burn, and there might be a clean cut through the apple like Jeph suggests, depending on the speed that the apple drops through the laser beam (basically, does the laser burn through the apple faster than the apple moves out of the way).

This is all guessing based on my experience with lasers (in particular, setting things on fire with a CO2 laser and shooting holes in things with an Nd:YAG laser). Your mileage may vary, especially since the comic takes place in an alternate universe with lasers more powerful than the ones I've used.

FunkyTuba:
I really want Trashbot to say "Om Nom Nom Nom".

Method of Madness:
"G is for Garbage, that's good enough for me!"
