Hey! Look! I actually started a WCDT! Get out the DeLorean!

Wow, okay, this entertained me

jwhouk · « **Reply #4 on:** 25 Oct 2015, 12:42 »

Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

(Okay, it was only about 1.4k strips ago, but bear with me)

I was routinely starting the WCDT and doing the poll thingy.

And then, Scott Walker came and stole my sunshine.

Steve, that is a level of drunk I can't say I've achieved. Is the commode comfortable?

What was Marigold drinking?

I though Faye was sober - why's she saying 'Hanenrs'?

Eh. It ain't entirely stupid if you drove there and it's too late for public transportation or taxis. A bathtub and some sofa cushions is a lot more comfortable than a hospital bed and a bunch of broken bones.

This. Trust me. I know whereof I doth speak.

It looks like Jeph is starting to give early (when he's done with them) strips to Patreon subscribers now.

I did the "wake up Sunday morning, with 9 people squeezed into a one bedroom flat" thing as a youth. I've seen people sleep in bean-bags, across bean-bags, under tables, on tables, in dining chairs... can't say the tub got any usage. Maybe we were just picky.

BenRG · « **Reply #15 on:** 26 Oct 2015, 00:14 »

I think that this is yet another long, drawn out moment in the "Oh my God, was I ever like this?" horrible realisation night for Faye. To summarise my reading experience:

Has May made another enemy or doth Faye protest too much?
Apologetic Marigold and Hannelore are both almost painfully cute;
That's nice Steve but Marten and Faye sort of need that room. On the couch with you!

"Marten? From now on, our parties here are gonna be dry."

hedgie · « **Reply #16 on:** 26 Oct 2015, 00:47 »

As far as 3 goes, you're forgetting drunk "logic". There were more times than I'd like to admit where I woke up on my *own* couch without remembering how I even got home. Since my bed was actually a shorter distance away, this made no sense whatsoever to a sober person. I'm just glad that said couch was fairly comfy.

Lubricus · « **Reply #17 on:** 26 Oct 2015, 01:34 »

Your drunk logic was probably something like "If I go to bed, I have to brush my teeth and remove my clothes and so on. I'll just lie down on the couch to relax a bit first".

I voted because... yeah, because everyone knows that Dale and Marigold are the sort of people for whom incredibly detailed analysis and debate of tropes and shipping in animé is far more important than life or death.

Would it have been better or worse if Bubbles had tried the AnthroPC equivalent of drinking?

I suspect that Steve is going to get an early shower courtesy of the Pugnacious Peach.

Yeah, tonight's strip is a throwback to days gone by, where our heroes would happily snark at each other.

I remember being the first non-jwhouk in a long time to start a WCDT. A long time ago, before I was a mod.

BenRG · « **Reply #27 on:** 27 Oct 2015, 00:15 »

Well, that was... eccentric. I can't help but wonder how long Marten has been holding that fictional anecdote in reserve, hoping for an opening!

Of course, I may be doing him an injustice here. Do I really have any reason to believe that this isn't true? I mean... this is Veronica we're talking about here. Based on his father's wedding, I think that we can be sure that the people she calls family are at least as weird as she is.

I'm not sure how much I like getting the QC strips earlier through Patreon. I mean, it's nice to get them a bit early, but I worry that I might stop visiting the site, and thus this forum. Ah, well, I'm going to have to go to the site for Alice anyway, I guess.

Kugai · « **Reply #30 on:** 27 Oct 2015, 14:11 »

I didn't open the email with the strip in it until after I saw it live on the site

I've had trouble drinking milk since watching Primer.

Also, is it technically possible to sleep through breakfast?

Not really. Breakfast is whenever you wake up.

McDonald's has breakfast all day here in the future. (yay, I guess?)

Only McMuffins, no biscuits. (boo)

If you want biscuits, move south.

She *does* sometimes use contacts. It is rare enough, though that they probably don't work as well, or are just uncomfortable.

It *sucks* Last time it happened to me, I fell afoul of a co-worker's retaliation for a previous act on my part. Even though I "had it coming", it was still unpleasant.

As a southerner, I can confirm that we do, indeed, get biscuits at McDs.

My wife found out the hard way one late night, though, that "all day" is NOT the same thing as "24 Hours".

If I didn't know you were a foreigner, I'd suspect you were a former roommate of mine. He never had any proof it was me, so there was no confrontation, just entertainment for me and confusion for him as to the foul flavor of his orange juice.

I'm from the US. This case was part of the mutual pranking that we did to alleviate boredom at slow times. The suddenly super-sugary drink (when I don't like sugar) was just one part of her retaliation for me tossing a giant spoonful of whipping cream that ended up landing on her cleavage (I was aiming at her head). She almost fell on the ground just laughing at the face I made.
