Who wouldn't chug their way through that? Drinking to oblivion is the only sane reaction.

Besides throwing Pintsize into that dent in the wall next to the TV?

Hey Jeff,

           Congrats on finally have a fat girl in your comic, you depicted her SOOO well! I understand that not ever girl is rail thin like Dora and curvy like Faye so its nice to see a REAL woman like Marigold in your comic. I have to give you props for having the courage to tackle such a sensitive issue too. I mean she did have any rolls, or stretch marks or even a muffin top, and I think that’s great. Ya, put her in a bikini, break down those walls. Your a regular Gobachev my friend. Lets just say keep up the good work, next you can depict the “fatty” Marigold having a “fat issue” and being told its okay to be fat and its whats inside that matters. You can even end it with a butt joke like you always do.

            Inconclusion, the above paragraph was sarcastically written. Try not to insult women anymore Jeph, I know its not what you intended but that doesn’t meant its not what you did.

What is this I don't even

Omega Entity:
See, it's people like that that make me extremely wary of doing a webcomic of my own. Is there any way to -not- unintentionally insult some realm of the internet?

Simple. Destroy all humans first.

How people manage to draw insult from Questionable Content is beyond me.

I read this comic because of it's lack of insult.   Jeph doesn't use his comic to promote a religious stance,  political preference... he doesn't use it to broadcast a message or a worldview or an opinion.

Those things he occasional tweets or get posted on his other media-presences.    Which I can ignore if they don't jive with mine... and get back to the finer things in life --- enjoying his comic.

That said.  I prefer squishy girls.    IF THEY WERE REAL (they are not)  Faye and Marigold (and Raven to some extent) would be "my type."    I see nothing insulting about the way they are drawn...  I see nothing insulting about the way they are portrayed...  if anything I can point to each of the characters in this strip and say "I know someone like that."

Hope the person who expressed his opinion in that email enjoys his internet fame.   In the end all he accomplished was annoying Jeph (apparently?) and some of Jeph's fans.
