--- Quote from: PHDrillSergeant on 30 Jul 2013, 11:41 ---This is one of the first QC story arcs I haven't enjoyed. Specifically, it really stretches the boundaries of what we expect from the QC universe, even taking into account sentient AIs and holographic glasses. The idea that a company would pay someone $1500 to try out a demo of a criminal ai who berates you for days is just ridiculous to me, even in a comic which has featured a robot who glues pubic hairs to his face. the holo AI is written very boringly in my opinion, and each strip here is terribly predictable.

I don't much care about the logistical details regarding the demo, but I agree that I don't like the story line, and it's largely because I cannot take May seriously as a character.

up until you've burned through all your black market jetfuel. then where you gonna be?

If you're lucky, parked on a runway, or in a hangar.
If you have "impulse control problems", possibly several thousand feet in the air. That could be... bad.

--- End quote ---
I'm glad someone at least suspects that it is a lie, rather than just accepting it without question.
Personally, I would be amazed if it were true.
I'm also a bit bemused at the people who think that the story about beta testers being paid $1500 is unbelievable, and immediately think "what a terrible story" instead of "maybe she isn't telling the truth."
Is it cold in here?:
Dale doesn't seem to like her now, but when it's time to part with her will he be dismayed?
KOK:
A jet fighter with impulse control issues. Just what we need.
