Boops are off-limits!? How will we survive?
Still funny though, I like how Claire's hair all stands up! And directly in front of the 'YES THIS WILL HURT' Poster!
Oh.
Oh I really don't like this. This is not a pretty or attractive piercing.

My opinion too. But that is of no consequence - the only one who gets a vote on this is Claire.
Marten whyh. That's common sense.
WCDT Strips 3041 - 30445 (7 September to 11 September 2015)Someone is expecting Jeph to work overtime this week, I think.
Jeph is caught in a space-time disturbance called "Canada", and time is moving at a different rate than the rest of the universe.

Somebody Gibbsmack Marten
I'm sort of realizing that the 9:15-9:30 time frame I've gotten used to QC updating might be different now that Jeph's a Canada man. I also realize that might be just due to his moving. I'm prepared to accept both possibilities, they are both entirely better justified than my prior expectations, but it's a bit odd at the moment.
Claire's last piercing was eclipsed by Emily out of the blue, and now Hanners gets a scary science machine. Will she ever get the spotlight to herself for a change?
Is anyone else strongly reminded of a sonic screwdriver? Does this mean Hanners is a Time Lord/Lady? :-o 8-)
"I'm the Doctor, and I end messes."
A sonic screwdriver? Don't be silly. It's clearly a machine that goes byooooIt probably is a decontamination ray, considering the note and Hanners' obsession with keeping everything clean. She may have stolen Claire's thunder, but at least the piercing site would now be germ-free.

Dude, I have seen every episode since 2005 at least twice and seen a significant chunk of Classic Who. I was not reminded in the slightest bit, though I could absolutely see the 11th Doctor saying that, then proceeding to make an even larger mess.
It's an ansible. The folks on Gethen really like Claire's nose ring, and asked Hanners to pass the message along.
Timey Wimey detector; goes ding when there's stuff.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fq-nqBIERhg (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fq-nqBIERhg)
"Notice anything different about me?" is a Dangerous Question. You should know better, Claire.
Comic's up.
SPOILER: It scans the surrounding area for Beatrice Chatham and emits an ear-piercing alarm if it detects her. As if Hannelore needed any more ear piercings.
:clairedoge:
Am I the only one simultaneously not shocked, but absolutely terrified that Hannelore has an app for orbital railgunning?
I thought it was some kind of tricorder, like: Staph: 7.9 billion bacteria, Strep: 4.1 billion bacteria,..., new nose ring....

What does "Staph" and "Strep" mean ??!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
'Staph' - Staphylococcus - A family of mostly-harmless bacteria that live on our skin and mucus glands; when they get out of their 'comfort zone', they can cause nasty diseases like food poisoning.Aaaaaaaaah !!!! Thanks ! I wasnt even thinking about the possibility of that referencing different types of bacteria.
'Strep' - Streptococcus - Another large family of common bacteria that normally live on the skin. The nastier sorts can cause infections if they get under the skin and into the blood. Others can cause pneumonia.
It doesn't zap, it clearly byooos.Exactly ! Now we know everything !
It doesn't zap, it clearly byooos.
NEXT UP: It goes ding when Sven appears, Dora RQ's.

Gain six inches with this one weird tip!Just the tip?
Am I the only one who feels the comic would almost have been better without the Claire side-commentary? I like her fine, but she just seems... redundant, in this one.

I can't actually see him wanting to wipe out humanity, mostly because it would reduce the availability of porn.I cant see Pintsize wiping out mankind because he's not meanspirited.
That's the most pessimistic I've ever seem Marten...More like stoic.
You didn't find her side comments amusing at all?I did, because...
Meanwhile, it looks like Claire is having another one of those experiences where it is revealed to her just what a surreal social circle she's gotten entangled in via Marten!

She's being a viewpoint character, like a hobbit or a Greek chorus
anyone else think this is starting to relate to alice grove?Now you mentioned it, it does seems like that. In that case Hanners might become Alice as she has both the resources and technology to put her in that position.
I wonder what it does, simply turning off AntroPCs would be too easy I suppose (and would be a zapper instead). Swapping consciousnesses with an AntroPC might seem somewhat far fetched.anyone else think this is starting to relate to alice grove?Now you mentioned it, it does seems like that.

Because my mind is strange, I now have it stuck in my head that Claire is a chorus of Greek hobbits. Thanks.
However, I believe Jeph recently reiterated that Alice Grove is NOT the future of QC.Yeah, but even if you ignore my hatred for treating word of god as canon, Jeph lies and jokes all the time, so AG could very well be QC's future.
Also, it's kind of sad that Hanners thinks a call would bother her dad. Damn kids and their texting.
How does it take longer to say what you were going to type? If he answers the phone, it's as fast as texting, if not faster.

Ask? But what about the possibility of wacky hijinks?Sometimes asking can be wacky hijinks: EXPLAIN STEAMPUNK! (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2198)
Also, I don't know if it's just me, or does Dora's face look supremely unnatural in panel two? I can't even put a finger on what's off, it's just...odd.
It's not just you; I think Dora's face is evolving. Noticed that when she was talking with Sven, too. Jeph's drawing her eyes bigger/browner and her lips, uh, lippier? I'm not an artist.
Sure, you'd need to add "thanks, bye!" but other than that there's not really anything that's necessary.
Now that I think of it a thank you would be needed if you were texting, too.
So says a (presumably, from this comment) non-busy person.
A phone call lasts minutes, more if there's time- related conflicts. A text takes seconds to read and the same to respond. Voice-based communication is only better if it's in-person
Awww, that's no fun!

I can't imagine Hannerdad not being thrilled to get a call from Hanners no matter what he's doing.Awww, that's no fun!

It is sad, but it's consistent with what we already know of their relationship.

We've seen how he reacts to calls from Hanners. He tells her he's busy, then calls her back to ask if she's pregnant.

No, it induces parthenogenesis. Hanners, Claire, and Marten are all going to be mommies.It's a pregnancy tester, then?I can't imagine Hannerdad not being thrilled to get a call from Hanners no matter what he's doing.Awww, that's no fun!
