Nothing - her character just rubs me the wrong way. She's condescending, rude and doesn't understand others nor does she try to. No, she's not the only one, yes it's OK for her to appear once in a while, but I could do without the Claire overdose at the moment. I don't know, she's too much like Clinton to like her - but that's just my personal opinion.
BenRG: You make some really good points! I hadn't thought of that at all, and it would fit very well. I don't think Tai's going to talk to her about it before the first problems arise, though - her attitude towards workplace romances is pretty relaxed ;)

Not the only one is a massive understatement. If you think Claire is condescending and rude, how do you deal with Faye? Or Dora? Or Veronica? Or Penelope? Tai?
Seriously. The only female characters in the strip who couldn't be described as condescending and rude are emotionally crippled, one dimensional recurring jokes, or suffer the curse of being too brown to be regular characters.
The only male characters are either 1 dimensional or Marten.

Um, then what is it about the comic that you like enough to read it and make an account to discuss it?
That's actual curiosity, by the way, and not passive aggressive bullshit.

Mooski, I'm 150% sure that if all characters were normal the comic wouldn't be anywhere near as entertaining.

Without a doubt; the criticisms seemed to leave little to be entertained by, though it's possible I read too much into it.
