Is that 'small' by East Coast standards, 'small' by Midwest and Southwest standards?
We've got actual by-definition hamlets in the latter two.
Near Lurker:
Roughly 30k vs. 40k, so both small-ish towns, really. But Northampton has city status and Amherst doesn't, and downtown Northampton looks more urban (despite UMass's 28-story library).

I get the feeling Marten is at best a bit character now. I've had that feeling for a while now but seeing Marten completely abandon his dream (after Jeph spent years not even bringing up Deathmole at all much less ever actually giving them a show or something to get some progress on that dream) for something that is tangentially related at best is what cemented it. Marten's main purpose has largely always been to just prop up the rest of the cast to keep them all together and he's become not even particularly important in that capacity anymore. I think we've reached the point in the comic when Jeph could retire Marten completely and it wouldn't completely wreck the rest of the cast.
awkwardness:
immortalfrieza was right: the secret of bonding really is dog pics!
Mr_Rose:
Question: when QC AIs see a canine for the first time, do they wave their manipulator appendages in the air and yell “doggy!”?
