My viewpoint is thus: If I broke up with someone, I personally wouldn't hook up with someone else in front of them, no matter how much they said it was fine.

I'd also prefer not to see an ex hooking up with someone in front of me. It's nothing to do with gender stereotypes about "ownership" or anything, more just that: I wouldn't do it because it might hurt their feelings, so I'd appreciate it if they didn't do it because it might hurt my feelings. Even if you're no longer in a relationship with someone - even if it ended pretty badly, your ex partner is still a human being and a little bit of compassion can go a long way.
Hey, you left out the issue of the hook up being your boss. Doesn't that make it worse?

Yeah, he didn't rally. He posted a picture of his face to Twitter earlier today, and it looks hilarious. I mean awful. And bad. And wow, I'm not surprised that he was unable to draw.
(but honestly even he thinks its kinda funny) :D

I have nothing particularly interesting or insightful to say about the guest comic.

I concur, I feel bad for Jeph (who, honestly, seems to have health issues on an alarmingly regular basis), but at the same time this is just way too funny to NOT laugh at.

I am sorry for my wicked ways. :psyduck:

Not much to say beyond

"I hope Jeph gets to feeling better soon,"

and

"Jeph hasn't done an indie band reference in a looong time."

The strip still made me chuckle though.

You know, for all the jokes about this strip and obscure music references, I don't think I've actually heard one outside the title since Dora and Marten's first date.

I for one am grateful to Rosewood's toxicity for this strip, which I enjoyed, and thus for introducing me to Gastrophobia.com.

Get better, Jeph!

With all due respect to every guest strip artist in the archives of Questionable Content... that particular joke is just not funny anymore.

I was laughing at everything but the punchline. In particular, "Why do you hate us?" -- who hasn't had to deal with someone who's, shall we say, a little too much in need of reassurance. Yeah, that one resonated.

Also, were a million donuts present, Hanners wouldn't have a chance if Faye was around. Girl loves her baked goods, and she'll fight for them.

Perhaps Faye was being devious and had exactly that in mind. Imagine Hannelore accepting the dare and charging a million donuts on her Plutonium American Express card. Faye then has a million donuts in her reach. Nom nom.

Spathe donuts?

EDIT: That would be the space station itself, wouldn't it?

I wonder if Jeph anticipated that saying "space ham" with a mouth full of food would be seen as so hilarious that it would become a meme forever more...

When did the WCDT and caption threads merge, exactly? I seem to have missed it under all he innuendo.

We're not exactly captioning since there's no image. This is more like riffing on something someone said.
