And wow, talk about your early comics.He drew it before he left for Toronto. So real early!
If you overclock your PC to levels that it's not designed to operate at and/or without proper cooling, its insides will melt. Literally.True, but if PT melted, how is he still functional (if, uh, disfigured)?
Imagine being a mathematician with numerical dyslexia!I think you mean Dyscalculia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyscalculia) :p
I thought Momo was forbidden to hang with Pintsize.
True, but if PT melted, how is he still functional (if, uh, disfigured)?Well, Kenny was killed in just about every episode for the first few seasons of South Park...
I thought Momo was forbidden to hang with Pintsize.It's only illegal if you get caught.

I guess PT410X had a serious case of head-asplodey from the overclocking. Seems that neckbeard didn't keep the head cool enough!Poor PT. My first thought was "He's the Elephant Man of anthroPCs!"
Ooooh okay.We shall be derailed. But we shall also party. It is the roaring twenties after all.Err those happen between 2020 and 2029 ... at least to ordinary counting.
Just to make sure: I was referring to the comic strip numbers. As was Stoutfellow.
What I really dont get is: how can he SEE anything ?I guess PT410X had a serious case of head-asplodey from the overclocking. Seems that neckbeard didn't keep the head cool enough!Poor PT. My first thought was "He's the Elephant Man of anthroPCs!"
The damage was so extensive that it destroyed the head part of PT410x's case.But with his personality components etc in his head, how's he being cooled so it didn't happen again. Especially if the damage was so severe it destroyed the outer case!
His owner was able to get him working temporarily with some spare hardware he had laying around, but the cardboard box will have to do until replacement parts arrive in three to five business days. (The bastard's too cheap to spring for overnight shipping!)

It seems to have mellowed his personality, though.
Have the AnPCs grown in size, lately? PT410X's replacement head apparently used to store DVDs, yet it's about the same size as Pintsize's head, which we've seen to be about big enough to take up both hands (see last panel of 1785 (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1785)). Seems like a damn small cardboard box to use for that purpose.As Jeph was away, he probably had a script that installed the comic while he was away.
Also, is this the earlier Jeph has ever posted a comic? I don't remember anything earlier since I started reading, back around 1100 or so.
Have the AnPCs grown in size, lately?Jeph's been very inconsistent. Momo was almost as big as Dora's torso, with a head something like 75% the size of Dora's head (chibi propotions), then was suddenly small enough to sit in Marigold's hood (leaving her whole body about as big as Marigold's head) - this strip has her more like the former.
As Jeph was away, he probably had a script that installed the comic while he was away.The earliest time possible would be the moment he uploaded the comic, which would leave no point to there being a script ;)
So yeah, that script would probably run at the earliest time possible.

I'll let you figure out what's wrong with this on your own.
Also, give a name of the person in the spoiler text as well, because right now it just looks like "random chick whose image I leeched off of some news site".
What I really dont get is: how can he SEE anything ?SCIENCE! Or bullshit. Take your pick.
Yeah, its driving me mad trying to figure out who she is. I know she's an actress, I know I've seen her in some program, but I can't remember.Not really an actress per se. Definitely a TV personality though; but mostly she's an archaeologist and historian called Bettany Hughes.
I'm already re-employed, thanks.I am currently unemployed for the next (looks up at the clock) oh, about 14 hours.

So...bouncy squee-hugs, or is that assuming too much familiarity?
I mean, bouncing and squee-ing have already happened, but I have been trained to ask permission to hug.
Oh dear, is Faye about to develop an illicit cupcake habit (and who among us hasn't stood on the edge of that particular precipice)? Either that or tSB is manouvering a hostile takeover of CoD.
Actually hope it's the former, I'd dearly love to the see the QC take on an intervention.
Let the corruption and subversion begin.
"Come to the Secret side Faye, we have Cupcakes."
Way off-topic but does this look like Marigold to anyone else?Err ... no ... not at all ...
Alas PT410X, we hardly knew ye. I have to wonder what his owner was doing when he/she overclocked him, though.Especially since the people who run Linux and the people who overclock are usually more like a totally different bunch of people...
So I rather would assume Marigold looks a lot like, for example, Ellen Page (http://www.google.com/search?as_q=&hl=de&tbm=isch&btnG=Google-Suche&as_epq=ellen+page&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_sitesearch=&safe=images&as_st=y&tbs=isz:l).
usually only need to overclock to run games (or really any other realtime app, but usually games).
...and a fanatical devotion to the pope!
Hannelore is so loyal to CoD that she will not let this happen. And Faye knows better than to contradict Hannelore-gone-critical.Hanners does look disapproving of Faye's cake enjoyment/gluttony. And has others have pointed out, Jeph's drawing of Padma has hit a new high. Great facial expressions from all three characters too.
And Dog, the self-deprecating poll's getting a lil' old.
With all that Inventory, does TsB throw out a lot of stuff? Just crossed my mind......
It's a cupcake, not a muffin. And if she's getting two dozen, her hips will have to start lying...
Although I wonder if she's ordering them for CoD. Someone worried about freshness for such a small operation, and one thing I recall from my days as a youth was that the hole-in-the-wall bakery near my home supplied shops and restaurants all around the area with fresh baked goods on a daily basis. The storefront was a tiny fraction of their business - most of that stuff will probably be shipped out later for the dinner crowd in all the local eateries!
I loved that. One of Jeph's little humor details you don't always see immediately. I had a feeling Faye or Dora would eventually sample the competition. For "personal research purposes", naturally.With all that Inventory, does TsB throw out a lot of stuff? Just crossed my mind......
Check out the labels on the baskets on the counter: FRESH and LESS FRESH.

What?
You're about as far off the mark as the original poster, just in a different direction...
Pendrake, I second the motion that Padma looks fantastic. Part of it's the up-do, seeing more of the shape of her face without that hair hanging down. Part of it is also the eyes - in getting the shape, Jeph seems to have made them bigger than before. He's not going anime-style like in the past, but there's something more visually appealing about the larger eyes.
And the full mouth with her finely chiseled jaw.

I think so Brain, but how would we manage to make Justin Beiber drink Leeches?
I doubt the Secret Bakery has a sword hidden under the counter (it seems too friendly and welcoming for the employees to use martial weapons), so I'm not sure how scary Elliot would be going berserk. If anything, he'd be met by a single Faye Special right cross and be down and out.
Uh-oh. Hanners is schemin.' Also, Dora has a secret roasting process in the basement that she operates alone (I'm guessing that if Faye doesn't know about it, no one does)? I am most definitely....intrigued.Hanners is her mother's daughter (minus the greed, evil and shark tanks) so no wonder she's thinking M&A. Does Dora draw a pentacle and summon hell-fire to roast the beans, I wonder? If Elliot is so docile, how did he get the broken nose? I wouldn't take him on.
I didn't even think of the "hot and brown" thing until I came in here. I don't know if that means I'm innocent, or that you guys are just a bunch of pervs... :-D

The moderator is always watching you :psyduck:
As long as they aren't using RAID0, that shouldn't be too big a deal (if they are, well, :psyduck: ).
Hanners is thinking CoD/tSB team up. And speaking as a fan of the Marvel Team-Up series: WANT. WANT WANT WANT.

CEILINGCAT IS OUR MODERATOR!!!!! :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck:Who did you think "testguy" really is?
Elliot is my new favorite minor character. Intimidating, bulky, yet strangely soft spoken guy.Which is oddly a very good definition of me. Unlike Elliot, I have gone into a "berserker mode" when pushed too far. Like in elementary school, when one kid was pissing me off so much before PE, I snapped, tackled him to the ground and put him in a full headlock that was only broken up when a teacher came by. Got punished for it, but the class looked at me differently after that. As in, "Holy shit, this kid could kill me if he put effort into it."
DUNDUNDUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!CEILINGCAT IS OUR MODERATOR!!!!! :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck:Who did you think "testguy" really is?
Re: comic subtext?-- ahahaha brown and hot ahahahaha well played
One very weird post.
Hey, have we just been assuming Padma owns the Secret Bakery since we've assumed she's Dora's counterpart, or has that been confirmed?
Does someone need to be violent to suffer a broken nose?Perhaps I'm prejudiced by living in Australia. Most guys here with obviously broken noses seem to have suffered their injury
I thought "rugby" and "brutal hand-to-hand combat" were pretty much synonymous.
I thought "rugby" and "brutal hand-to-hand combat" were pretty much synonymous.
Wait wait wait...Padma is not the boss of Secret Bakery?...Or a certain sociopathic corporate raider who once offered to take CoD national.
Ten bucks says the boss is a blonde chick who battled allosauruses for her very survival and settled down to a quiet life in a not-so-hidden bakery.
Uh-oh. Hanners is schemin.' Also, Dora has a secret roasting process in the basement that she operates alone (I'm guessing that if Faye doesn't know about it, no one does)?
Sara might.
But that's it though; Sara knows because she is the process. It's like that civet coffee only with chains and a whip.
...It's run by some guy who has Butts Disease.
Fuck yeah: Padma and Faye, running the negotiations up in here.
Fuck no: Secret Bakery is apparently run either by Scarface or Renee. Do not want. Want even less some jackhole in a suit or Hannermom. BLUH!

I don't think Secret Bakery is run by any staff member we've seen so far. As to whether it's run by some jackhole in a suit...that depends on whther it's unique or part of some chain. If it's a chain, then yeah, jackhole in a suit. If not...we'll just have to wait on Jeph to make the big reveal.
*cue dramatic chord (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qG9_qnPZDvo)*
Okay, enough Red Bull for me.....
Am I the only one who is thinking that Reneé is the possible "boss"?
I dunno, she doesn't really strike me as the "type" to be the boss of a small business. If I had to pick the boss out of the known characters, I'd pick Scarneck (I feel ridiculous calling him that; we need names, Jeph!), though I wouldn't be surprised if it's somebody entirely new.
Hmm? Padma's not the boss? Who is, then?
...maybe Kenshin the Plaid (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1845) here?
For comic #1924...
1. So Padma is not the boss (&/or owner) of The Secret Bakery? veeerrryyy iiinnnteresting... If Padma is not the boss/owner, then she has to be either senior employee (like Faye) if not manager from the way she has been portrayed thus far.
2. I do not get the impression that Renee or "scar-neck dude" are "the boss" either, having re-read Number 1845: Everywhere Is The Same (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1845) (feel free to show other examples, counter-points or supportive-wise, QC archivists! :police: ). I do think that we are going to be introduced to a new TSB character (meaning TSB's boss &/or owner), which will be better.
3. Loved the in-tandem script for this strip, especially Faye + Padma's sharing of word balloons and facial expressions for panels #3-4.
4. I hope we get to see a TSB-analogue of Hanners ;) . Though I also am coming to think that Elliot possibly may be it, supporting character-wise at least...?
Is friendshipping against the rules?
Because Elliot and Hanners would seem to get along really well.
I thought this was Hannelore's Doppleganger:
http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1844
I think Strip 1868 (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1868) is actually a very good indicator that Elliott is Hannelore's counterpart.
Specifically, I'm talking about Elliott's posture in the final panel, in conjunction with his words and expression.
Compare his apologetic stance to Hannelore's posture in panel 3 here (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1103), or even better, all of panel 4 here (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1046).
Why are we still trying to assign them all as counterparts? Seriously, I think that that was pretty much intended as a throwaway first reaction joke.Because it still happened, and is therefore fair game for analyzing.

Also, 6'6'', I get the random "You're very tall" comments a lot.

Also, 6'6'', I get the random "You're very tall" comments a lot.LOL. At 6'4'' I used to think that I'm tall. So when (this happened while I lived in the US) I visited a Big 'n Tall clothing store I was mildly surprised by the salesclerk's greeting: "Ehm... We only cater for the needs of big and tall here.." Only when I showed him my arms, with a regular cut shirt leaving 5-6 inches of my forearm exposed, did he realize my problem, and immediately showed me the rack I was looking for.

Right?

5. Rene = Faye (but now more likely a Faye/Penelope combination)Renee was introed just having set stuff on fire. Cosette, not Penelope.
I'm pretty sure Hanners is just shaken up because Elliot's "but what if it was in space" comment may have thown Hanners' fact about okapis on its head. You know how she is, everything has to be sure, and just so.
...we already know she will not kiss a boy that is too tall for her (#1760: Helvetica (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1760)) ...

Whats the punchline? Well, Hanners brain works like a computer, it processes information by assigning 1s and 0s. Elliot comes along and throws a 2 at her and suddenly Hanners is freaking out.
See, the joke isn't funny when you explain it.

What exactly did her hand sign mean?
Me, instead of wondering about the conversation, I was wondering more why little Miss OCD was holding her arms in such a way as to emphasize her chest, and Elliott was apparently standing "At Ease" (feet shoulder width apart, hands held behind the back, pulling the shoulders back ).
Could they be flirting with each other by "posing", are they jsut uncomforatble and don't know what to do, or is there absolutely nothing to it? Only time, and Jeph, will tell.
I'd actually classify both poses, especially in the context in which we usually find either character, as nervous/shy, maybe with a touch of insecure.Me, instead of wondering about the conversation, I was wondering more why little Miss OCD was holding her arms in such a way as to emphasize her chest, and Elliott was apparently standing "At Ease" (feet shoulder width apart, hands held behind the back, pulling the shoulders back ).

I have noticed that Hanners holds her arms in that manner quite often and have also wondered about it. I just assumed that she didn't realize that was how that stance affected her chest. If I wasn't so lazy, I could search the archives for evidence of this history.
I don't know if Elliott's stance is really classified as at ease. I'm of similar size and shape to him and that is how I often stand when talking to someone I don't really know. This is personal experience so could definitely be a different convention else where.
Is the painting behind Hannelore one of the prints that Jeph made with four or the girls as the seasons? Also, if anyone knows what I'm talking about can you link to them so that others may be enlightened?

Sorry to be one to blow a big hole in your logic shield, but if Hanners grew up on a space station, where (presumably) there would be little gravity, wouldn't the constant weightlessness have made her much taller?

to generate 1g artificially, you would need a habitat with a radius of 224m to spin slowly enough so that you did not get sick every time you turned your head (minimizing Coriolis forces) resulting in a ring habitat with a circumference of 1.4km on the outer wall

Compression of the spine, eh?
Does that mean if you lost a lot of weight (say 100 lbs) you'd actually grow taller, because of less weight compressing?
(I am an inch and a half away from 6 ft and I know it's dumb but I want that inch so bad arg)
one proposed method is having a centrifuge area where the astronauts sleep, as they'd be immobilized they could be exposed to much greater rotation, hence the module could be much smaller. as a result it could be part of a ship (although from memory the destroyer from B5 didn't have anything big enough to be realistic)
Compression of the spine, eh?

I'm literally just under 6ft, not that 5'11" crap, I mean I am that fraction under 6ft. So, yes, I know your pain.
Skew, to the best of my knowledge (one of my lecturers at uni), the nausea is caused by a form of travel sickness: if you are standing, facing the direction of spin, and you rotate your head 90 degrees to the left, your eyes tell the brain that the body is stationary, but because one ear is accelerating into the direction of travel, and the other accelerating away, the perception is that the head is tumbling forwards, as this is not backed up by the eyes, the nausea results.The nausea is actually primarily caused by gyroscopic coupling upsetting the vestibular system of the inner ear (someone inside a rotating space-station has become part of a gigantic gyroscope).

EVERYONE needs to see Citizen Kane. Also The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca, and The Third Man.
And for a second tier of cultural references, The 39 Steps, Kind Hearts and Coronets, and the original Psycho.
Top of my list of everyone-must-see are Office Space and Rustler's Rhapsody.
We shall never know what kind of pieces Bach or Mozart would have composed for piano, or ... electric guitar.I personally think most Bach pieces already sound great on electric guitars (http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=z-nWs6lhiSI). So yeah, what if he had actually one available?
Also it is kinda pointless to compare movies produced in different eras. The changes in technology act as divides. ...

So yeah, what if he had actually one available?I've always felt that Bach would have been more of a keyboard/synth kind of guy. There's a reason Switched-On Bach was so successful even back in the Dark Ages before I was born...
