WCDT Strips 3416 to 3420 (13th to 17th February 2017)
Carl-E:
As a friend of mine from southern Indiana (AKA northern Kentucky) used to say,
"Them's good eatin'!"
Usually about roadkill, but the idea's the same.
ZoeB:
Honour and Integrity were the only things Bubbles had left at one time. Now she has other things she values too, but those two remain.
Mad Cat:
I came in here tonight, after reading the new strip, with only one question to pose to the forum, and then I see that it's one of the options in the weekly survey.
So, I give my question voice.
When do you think we'll get to see Bubbles out of her armor?
brasca:
Seeing as how Bubbles doesn't have to keep her criminal past a secret I'm going to assume that the raccoon was just a raccoon and not an unfortunate AI inspector.
BenRG:
I can't help but read Bubbles' body language in panel 5 of today's strip to indicate that she feels a deep and profound personal guilt about that raccoon. This is one of the lives ever on her conscience! Given the horror that she once experienced in the ceiling void of Coffee of Doom, I suspect that Faye doesn't empathise - To her it's more a case of 'good riddance' and 'thank god I didn't have to cart that thing out into the trash!'!
--- Quote from: Sullivan on 16 Feb 2017, 13:49 ---There's been very little comment on the spare CreepyBot bodies that are racked in the closet, like Borgs in their regeneration pods. Apparently they're being supplied in some way from overhead tanks. What's the stuff in the tanks for, and why don't the CBs need it when they're out and about?

My guess is that they are at least semi-organic in nature and those glass boxes are spawning vats where the organic sheath is 'grown' (more like a fungus than anything else). Self-replication is part of the Singularity, so it makes sense that Spookybot (I'm sticking with this name for now) would make their own chassis/avatars, given that they are basically being used in narrative terms as an indicator of the Singularity - the AI that is beyond human control and possibly even human undersanding.
