Platypodes:
They're in a fast food restaurant, Marten is drinking a cola (it says so on the drink machine), and soda is the traditional beverage of fast food restaurants.  There's often even a combo price for something like "hot dog and a soda" or "burger and fries and a soda." They generally don't serve alcohol.


--- Quote from: snubnose on 26 Jun 2012, 00:52 ---If thats the whole point of interacting with ladies, why would (heterosexual) men in general bother interacting with other men at all ?

Or women with each other.

--- End quote ---
Some people look at members of their own sex as complete human beings (and potential friends or role models or whatever), but only look at members of the opposite sex as sex objects/potential hookups.

Also, it has often been the case (much more so in times past, but still sometimes true today) that in books, movies, etc., female characters are only introduced as love/sex interests, so if a woman comes on screen, you know she's going to marry and/or bang one of the men.

Tova:
Same here.

My personal preference when not drinking wine at the table is for either mineral water or tap water, as it happens. But... well, I could kind of understand thinking someone had bad taste if they chose a particular drink, but judging them as childish is a bit weird.

But I admit I have my own flaws. I do harshly judge people who use a variant of the very worn phrase 'what, are you 12?' So I guess we're even.

I used to have OJ for breakfast every morning, but stopped when I decided I needed to cut my sugar intake a bit. I don't miss it.

ink slinger:
I know that Jeph is totally screwing with us and making fun of everyone suggesting that Marten will hook up with one of the interns (I mean, he said as much in the blog post under the comic), but it seems like Marten might try to (awkwardly) make a move on one of them eventually. He's just met three new women and, based on his attempts at being a smooth operator with Lt. Potter, it seems like he's aiming for the rebound. Then again, maybe he was just thinking that sex in space would be awesome and, now that he's back on Earth, he's more grounded (*puts sunglasses on* EE--YEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!)

Somebody:
So, isn't Faye committing a crime by chucking Pintsize around like that in an AI rights world?

dr. nervioso:
He probably deserved it.
