BenRG:
Well, at least he can joke about it... Or maybe he's being serious! Perhaps inscrutability of seriousness is another thing that they have in common. Still, it's a good sign that the initial desperate nervousness has died away. Maybe Clinton's sense of the ridiculous has taken over?
We still have to find out about the rest. I wonder if there i s one more dare awaiting Clinton tonight and, with it, lost shoes? Riding wheelie bins down a hill and into an ornamental pond in the park maybe?

--- Quote from: Neko_Ali on 13 Apr 2015, 07:45 ---I don't think it's the Horrible Revelation. I mean it could be, we haven't seen a lot of the inside of the bar. It just seems that Punchy Bro wouldn't be the sort who would hang out there. I could see Clinton going, maybe. Elliott could have changed bars, or works part time in a couple of them. If it is indeed the same Elliott. And really, I could totally see him working at the Revelation... And defusing fights by giving people a stern talking to.

We have enough interior shots of the Horrible Revelation to establish they aren't there, unless they demolished the next door building to put in a window and did some redecorating:

Though it does have a pool table that comes and goes:

I wonder if the Date Bar could be the other end of the bar from http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1182, which is a closer match, except for the ceiling. Either way I think Elliot is off duty and he's bouncing pro bono to help out Clinton, who is clearly of Elliot's tribe in the romance department and flailing in every sense of the term.
Fake Edit: Not sure if this phenomenon exists in NoHo, but in my college town if students wander into a townie bar they could pretty easily get a swat or thrown out for a fairly minor bar foul.

It looks like a view from behind the bar of the front door, which I think is simply a perspective we've not yet seen.
I'm not convinced he's off duty... his shirt seems to say "SECURITY."
Sorry for the late response. Also, my ability to post from my phone sucks.
Half Empty Coffee Cup:
--- Quote from: Gladstone on 13 Apr 2015, 22:34 ---I dunno, it still feels out of character for Clinton and contrary to how he views his prosthetic. He takes great pride in having a cybernetic limb, and a power outlet tattoo seems much too jokey/irreverent, and I hate to think that one date with a pretty girl is going to change that about him.
Still, there's been so much back-and-forth between ordinary date stuff and Big Mistakes that I'm getting whiplash, and despite the last panel of #2931 it's hard to tell just how this date is going to end, or how Clinton will feel about it when it does. I just feel like erasing all of Clinton's mistakes with one peck on the cheek will completely cheapen the experience. But maybe I'm being too cynical about all this.
(And I'm going to stomp my little feet until someone agrees with me on this.)

I actually see him as likely to go in for a "touch-up" at a later date and modifying it such that he comes back out of the tattoo parlor with a proud mechanical-themed sleeve, with the outlet edited to the extent that it's no longer recognizable as such, but rather is split into being one mechanical component here, another mechanical component there.
After that, he'd probably be a-ok with it on all levels. Except for the faces he made in pain at the tattoo artist while it was being done.
BenRG:
A Prediction:
Clinton's black-eye is self inflicted. I'm guessing that he's going to crash into the flagpole whilst running for some reason. I've done something similar whilst distracted; my glasses survived but my dignity didn't and I got a nice shiner for my troubles.
To me, the great unanswered mystery is the boots and the fact that Clinton's trousers seem to have changed from formal to jeans.
Akima:
You've got to love a comic that throws in a Tyco Brahe reference. I'm sure Clinton knows all about him. :claireface:
