Found this comic series late Friday night, finished all 1870 pages by Sunday night. Not sure what makes it so interesting, but wow is it good.

We are the Questionable Collective. Lower your shields and surrender your "shippings," we will add your biological and emoticon-ological distinctiveness to our own. Resistance is futile.

You poor bastard...

That must be one fast internet connection you've got there!
...unlike mine. #$&#*!%&* Verizon DSL...

I started the comic on Thursday and finnished it Saturday night so I def believe it.
I lived in Amherst MA for a year and went to Umass and Mt. Holyoke, so it's def a rememberence of the time I spent there.

[MorpheusVoice] Welcome to the QC world [/MorpheusVoice]
-
yeah, i read a lot of comics and manga, and this is the only one i'm consistently loyal to.
Even the forums are good (usually.)
-
Welcome, new person!
For me it's the characterization and the good mix of story and whimsy.
-
I caught up in about a week, but there were only about 800 comics at the time (in all fairness, I was catching up in LiCD as well at the time).
-
And I thought 1860 comic pages in 10 days was good.
*I am shame*
Welcome aboard!
Have fun!

I'll trade you, Carl... I used to have DSL, but right now the ancient pc i'm using is, um, "borrowing" a neighbor's wireless signal, which hovers around 36 Mbps "Low." But this hardware can only handle win98se.... :roll:

Well, considering Arthur Clarke built HAL in 1997 (Kubrick 1993), it might be time to consider upgrading. :wink:

"I'm sorry, Tomart. I can't let you do that."

I'd rather talk to HAL than have the machine just freeze & reboot.
It's like getting "Daisy, Daisy..." every few minutes. :-(
-
I'd be more worried if it answered back as Bender
-
HAL's voice: "I'm sorry Tom, I can't let you do that."
me: "HAL, it's all these newfangled javascript banner ads, holding the processor hostage waiting for them to run, right? I don't even WANT them to run! Can you disable them, HAL? Please?"
On another note, I wouldn't want Bender in charge of my pc, let alone my spacecraft! :-o

"HAL, you've been drinking too much...or too little, I can't remember how it is with you IBM-cypher types. Anyway, you haven't been drinking exactly the right amount."
-
"Dave?Dave? Hey meatbag! what do you think you're doing?"
"Biting your shiny metal @$$, HAL, like you asked me to do."
" ... I can sing you a song ..."
"Sure, HAL.."
"There once was a man from Nantucket ..."
... And the final scenes of the movie take place in a room at a Motel 6. The monolith is a VHS cassette of "Space Girls Gone Wild."
-
DSL, you could write for Futurama... :lol:

Wasn't there an episode of "Futurama" that the ship's computer was canverted to female and fell in love with Bender?
As I recall there were a great many 2001 references, including a romantic sequence under the song "Daisy Belle".
EDIT: Did the reasearch. It was titled "Love and Rocket" Episode 3 of season 4.
