On a related note, she has "I haven't had my coffee" face. How does that make sense if you're an AI?

I notice she's also plugged in to something. I'm going to treat the coffee mug as a metaphor for a rebooting program equivalent to waking up.

[Emphatically] That. That is why I work overnights.
I want that mug, BTW.

What exactly does Iris get out of coffee? I'm having trouble seeing Iris sniffing it the way Bubbles does with tea.

Speaking of which... I seem to have an atypical reaction to caffeine. I drink coffee. I don't feel like it wakes me up, or that I'm not awake until I've had one. I know it's a stimulant, but I've never noticed a stimulant effect. Going a day without coffee is not a big deal.
It's not like I'm going light on the coffee when I do drink it. While I typically only drink a double espresso's worth (plus milk), there have been days when I've drunk 3 of those. I try and keep it to one, because I really don't like caffeine withdrawal headaches, and drinking a lot of coffee and then skipping a day usually brings one of those.

Scent is about the only way I can enjoy coffee. If it weren't for the fact that chocolate cake using coffee grounds doesn't cause any noticeable effects, I'd guess I had a tannin sensitivity (I can't stand wine or all but two kinds of beer either).
Gus_Smedstad:
Oh, man. I can't believe I didn't notice this before.
Looking back at the Dildo Cannon strip, in panel 2 there's a "break glass in emergency" wall box with Emergency Lubricant. That raises all sorts of questions.
Like, what sort of emergency needs emergency lubricant? Oh, sure, it's a dildo factory, but aren't dildoes supposed to be passive? Do they have self-propelled dildoes? Do they break out of containment and roam the halls? Are they soothed by a quick spray of emergency lubricant? Or is the emergency lubricant just to make the results of the unavoidable sentient dildo attack less painful?

Hm, guys: I posted here about half an hour ago, and the post is gone.

That used to be me. I loved the smell, but drinking it was kind of awful. In my late 40's I discovered that I could drink it, even like drinking it, with enough milk and sugar.
I still can't drink it black, or even close to black. I generally dilute espresso 3:1 with milk. I still need sweetener, even at that ratio. It's my one vice that's a classic vice. No smoking or alcohol for me, just coffee.
