A Duck:
--- Quote from: Rghfrgl on 09 Dec 2014, 11:47 ---On the subject of Clinton being a overprotective jerk, I wonder if that's his motivation here, rather than meeting a girl(Well, primarily, since I'm sure he wouldn't mind that). Spend the day with Marten and scope him out.
--- End quote ---
Kind of like Marten spending the night drinking with Angus way back in the 1000s? Makes sense. He wouldn't tell Claire about it, too.
SubaruStephen:
--- Quote from: bhtooefr on 09 Dec 2014, 11:31 ---He's also got a massive entitlement complex, he's so protective of Claire that he's almost stifling (trying to take the role of the traditional father who locks a daughter away from potential suitors), and he has no understanding of boundaries.
--- End quote ---
My analysis is that he's never had a relationship, so he doesn't really know how to behave un-selfishly around women, which means his mom and Claire are the only ones in his life. So he's overprotective to the point of unintentionally being jerk.
Undrneath:
I'd say today's strip is unequivocal proof that Jeph reads the forums.
A Duck:
wait, why?
Natswash:
Clinton and Emily do have things in common though. An interest in AI and robotics at least, they are also a bit unconventional (Anyone remember "Ideally hydronamic" from comic 2299)
Personally I think they'd make an interesting couple, since Emily has shown to be slightly over-emotional (crying after the failure of giving peas a chance (2438)) I could see him being really protective of her.
And it would be kind of in character for Clinton to ask Emily out, and for Emily to just say Yes.
Which would shock everyone.
This could actually be kind of fun
