So. Have at it, then. :mrgreen:

Man that birthday comic last week was kind of odd, but back to regular QC tod -wait, what the he- *checks forums*. Dammit, the one time I don't save the comic and he changes it without any link to the previous version. Does anyone have it? It wasn't exactly my cup of tea, but I would like to have both versions. There's a reason I stopped playing pokemon and other collection games, and it wasn't age (it was because I couldn't stop playing them (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Ptitle0t9r68ih?from=Main.DontExplainTheJoke)).
Oh, and my dirty mind would like to see makeouts (preferably of Hannelore and Tai), but the intellectual side wants some backstory.
-
For the love of all that's holy, let MG not turn into Faye 2.0. Faye 1.6.4* is more than enough for any single reality.
*I actually have a basis for this version number.
Edit:
born----Faye 0.X
Dad dies----Faye 1.X
Moves to Massachusetts----Faye 2.X
The Talk----Faye 3.X
Hook up with Sven----Faye 4.X
Break up with Sven----Faye 5.X
Conversation with Angus----Faye 6.0
Tries to push Angus away----Faye 6.1
Stops trying to push Angus away----Faye 6.2
Has her talk with Angus----Faye 6.3
Discovers Marigold 'knows'----Faye 6.4
-
d'awwww marigold knows he's trying to not seem interested in faye.
-
has she now fully realized the absurdity of human behavior?
-
I wish Angus and Faye would hurry up and fuck already.
-
d'awwww marigold knows he's trying to not seem interested in faye.
Who is she, and what has she done with the real Marigold?

Hmm I have both versions ... now where to put the previous version into the net ...
... wait, I'm not allowed to do that ! :oops: Sorry, Jeph has full control over his comic. :-(
-
Hehehe. Angus is so cute when he's embarrassed.
I like Marigold's reaction too. Looks like she's over the shock.
-
Oh hey, found it. Turns out I saved it in my XKCD folder.
It certainly looks like Marigold is playing matchmaker, or at least getting-out-of-the-way maker.
-
Well, now she's dead set to help her dear, best friend in snagging the girl, courtesy of her knowledge and experience of relationships culled from her yaoi library. And the Internet. This should be good.
-

I think she's getting there.

Before I met my other half, I was the agony uncle for a lot of my friends. it can work if you're willing to spend most of your time listening rather than giving advice. Sometimes the questions you ask are enough to help people work out what their feelings are.
I think that Marigold's well timed giggle is the biggest hint that she's given Angus.
-
I think the filter on the forum needs adjustment.
-
There's a forum filter?! :laugh:

Please, oh please, let her become Faye 2.0. Internet snark is even better than regular snark.

Marigold + Faye = troll? That thought amuses me.

Before I used the word "giggle" I tried a synonym that started "sni". When I posted, my post actually read
... "well-timed shi I'm an ignorant..."
At first I thought that someone had hacked my account and was about to contact a mod. I didn't think of a filter because, like you, I didn't think that a forum for QC would have one. However, I realised that nothing else I typed provoked that response so a hacker was less likely -- if someone wanted to attack me they would be more evidence. I thought about it some more and realised that "shi" wasn't a swear word short of one letter but "s + hi". I mentally subtracted the "s" off the start of the word that I was using and realised that it must have been a filter.

"Nothing.. Nothing"
Arrgh.
It drives me insane when my wife uses that.
I know she means something, and I can guess about a dozen possible meanings, but none of them are ever what she really means.
Only slightly less annoying than when she ends an argument with "well, do whatever you want. I don't give a damn".
Which I have learned really means "if you don't do what I want and pretend you're doing it of your own volition, you''ll be sorry"

Maybe not. I think this may be the tail end of the sass-back relationship they had rearing its ugly head and biting them in the butt.
Because now, it's personal. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Ptitlelsweoq6tcdke?from=Main.ItsPersonal)

Now knock that off! I have work to do, I can't spend hours editing TvTropes!

Hooray for Marigold! My faith has been restored and I eagerly await more interaction time with her and the other characters.
I also kinda await her getting a new wardrobe. :\ Some of the guys have shown they have some fashion sense, but I haven't seen many of the girls wear more than jeans and a 'quirky' shirt. Actually, I'll just settle with her getting out of that dress. For now.
Edit: Um, just in case...here's a really good site for looking up outfits! http://www.yesstyle.com/en/women.html (they also have a section for men).

I see what you did there ;)
i liked Mari's :3 face right at the end
-
Perhaps a tad off topic, but I was browsing some pics today, and it occurred to me why I like Raven. She reminds me of Harley Quinn! It's the attitude, you see. That devil may care, lust for life glee. I miss Raven, alas.
I like the character development. Marigold is proving that she's an adult and can adapt. It's very cool that the characters in QC show this ability to change and yet remain themselves. It makes them CHARACTERS instead of CARICATURES. Kudos to Jeph.
-

Ohohoho! ;)

Today's strip is number 1691, which reads the same when turned upside. It's a pity the actual strip doesn't, because vertically palindromic artwork would have been awesome.
Note to self: send e-mail to Jeph about this idea when we start getting close to strip number 1961.
-
Heh heh, yay for giggling Marigold! Wonder how long it'll be before Angus figures out that she knows. Given his usual batting average . . . a week from now? Unless Faye tells him first. :-D
I kept looking at panel 3, trying to figure out what was wrong: Angus' sideburns are missing! It's clearly an oops since they're present in all the other panels, but I hope Jeph doesn't decide to get rid of them -- it's one of the things that help distinguish Angus from Wil and Sven, etc. Context is always the biggest clue, but having visual cues helps.
-
Ah, ye olde Scunthorpe problem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scunthorpe_problem)...
The word "ass" may be replaced by "butt", resulting in "clbuttic" and "buttbuttinate".
'Buttbuttinate' sounds like something Faye would do.
-
Ah, ye olde Scunthorpe problem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scunthorpe_problem)...
Yeah, I'm still puzzled it happens within chats and forums. It's not like it's complicated to avoid...

You'd think. I know of a certain Free to Play FPS that censors sNIPer and miNIGun, among many other things. Despite those very weapons being available in game.
-
Well, yeah, these days I play an online game where there are competitions between players. The problem is, the word "competition" is banned from the chat, because it contains "tit". Go figure... So, personally, I use the word "compeboobion" instead.
-
A friend of ours uses the term "tots" for those (stort for ta-tas. I think).
Which always brings to mind Napolean Dynamite (http://www.hulu.com/watch/8732/napoleon-dynamite-you-gonna-eat-your-tots)...
-
And I can't find the trope for what Angus is doing (the obviously feigned disinterest), but clearly Marigold recognizes it!
He's doing the pretending there's nothing going on between Faye and me trope, because of the I don't want to upset you, MG, trope. If there is such a thing. Meanwhile, Marigold is doing the 'I know, but you don't know that I know' snicker. That one, I'm rather familiar with.
Tropity trope trope Tropity trope trope
Look at Angus sigh
Tropity trope trope Tropity trope trope
To support his lie.
Ohhhh,
(everybody SINGa!)
Aannngguuusss the Strawman
Was a witty bant'ring troll
With his faked-up stands
And his shill demands

I lol'd at that too. "Buttbuttinate" is one of the best words i've heard in years
-
Meanwhile, Marigold is doing the 'I know, but you don't know that I know' snicker.
And she seems to have quite a bit of fun with it. Which I find cute because it's a rather harmless way to have fun at the expense of a friend, and it's a tame payback for his lack of openness.
-
It still bothers me that Tai's tattoos disappeared. I know they weren't temporary because she had them through a few different comics and she was wearing different outfits. I hope her tattoos either magically reappear, or there is some crazy story behind their disappearance. :?
-
This isn't going to turn into one of those "Mari tries to help their relationship and winds up destroying it" things, is it?
-
I have to say, if a single person trying to help a relationship, kills it, then it probably wasn't meant to be anyway.
-
I suspect angus will go home oblivious and then the next day or so drop in at CoD. There faye will inquire about his talk with marigold, to which angus has no idea what faye is talking about. faye reveals that marigold knows. angus confronts marigold with not telling him she knows to which she replies that she doesnt like it when angus hides stuff from her either. I also anticipate marigold hanging out at CoD more with dora.

She was drawing them on with a Sharpie but got bored with it.
Also, multicolor text is annoying and hard to read. :|

its jeph's comic, maybe he just didnt want tai to have them anymore and changed the art, maybe tai got rid of them for an upcoming summer internship. the world may never know.

Maybe they were made with nano-ink from Hannerdad's labs which fades in the presence of alcohol. You know you've had too much to drink when your tattoos disappear.
-
well marigold seems strangley different, like more confident or something. and her hair looks different too.
-
OMG!
That look by Marigold in the last panel = PRICELESS.
And on top of that - I think we've found a "real life" Marigold (per Jeph's twitter): http://bit.ly/90CgTK (http://bit.ly/90CgTK)
-
Yay comic !
But these catstyle smiles of Marigold, like in the last panel, really look odd.
-
I wonder if that girl realizes the fanbase she just unleashed her visage upon. Enjoy your creepy tweets.
And hey, Hannelore's been felt up by a boy! Of course, she was unconscious (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1313) at the time.
...
...You suppose Marten ever told her what happened? :roll:
-
You know, now that you mentioned it... I don't think he ever did. (He DID tell Dora, though.)
Personally, I think Hanners would freak out if Marten did tell her.
Or not... if it were funny.
-
Well, it's splled snicker, isn't it?
If you're a bar of chocolate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snickers).
-

The real Marigold is tied up in a wardrobe...
-
There has been previous mention of an unconscious emo girl tied up in a closet wearing nothing but her underpants (http://www.questionablecontent.net/217). Is Dora doing it for real this time?
-
It's this kind of uncharacteristic calm that precedes an axe-murdering.
Also, Marigold kind of made Angus touch her boob, so the self-delusions are already kicking into high gear again.
-
Ummm sorry but did I miss something??? Marigold was felt up and kissed by whom?
-
Kiss (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1630)
Hand (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1631)
-
Hey, you gotta take your victories in battle when you can get 'em.
...even if the war was lost.

The change in expression between Hanners and Momo in the last panel is priceless.

Kiss (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1630)
Hand (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1631)
Ohhh... I was being slow and thought she was talking about something that happened at the party.
Which prior to reading your post, and after reading through the party a dozen times and seeing nothing, made me think that there must have been something offscreen between Tai and Marigold, and Marigold must have somehow been drunk enough that she didn't realize Tai was a girl. Queuing Hanner/Momo inquiry into who/what/where? And a flashback of her and Tai, which leads to Hanners being like "But uh, Marigold, Tai is a girl" And Marigold all flipping out.
-
Also, Marigold kind of made Angus touch her boob, so the self-delusions are already kicking into high gear again.
It's not how it happened, but that it happened. At least that's how it was when I was first beginning to date. If a girl touched me somehow, accidental or purposeful (factor in that some girls tended to 'mask' the latter with the former. Could be that's no longer in practice), I tended to count it as climbing up another rung on the make-out ladder.
Anyway, I admire anyone who can turn a lemon into lemonade. Not generally one of my strong points. Also, seeing the whole thing this way makes MG a little less vulnerable and a little more in control. I'm all for that, too.
And hey, Hannelore's been felt up by a boy! Of course, she was unconscious (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1313) at the time.
...You suppose Marten ever told her what happened? :roll:
And Hanners never looked more attractive. Which, if I think about it too much, could be disturbing on several levels.
And of course Marten hasn't told her. It's one thing to get touched and remember what happened, another to have no recall whatsoever. If nothing else, all the flailing that would ensue would be for naught.
Edit: -ed for clarity. My posts need all of that they can get.
-
Well, however those things may have happened, if Marigold's 'at least I've done this and this now' attitude helps her get over the pain of her unrequited crush, then good for her. I love Momo's expression of alarm in the last panel, ha ha. Oh, and this probably isn't intentional, but in panel 4 Marigold may be sending a secret message to the forums. :-D (Does she have to turn it up?)
Oh, and Marten didn't just touch Hanners' boobs (inadvertently, of course), he also viewed at least one of them. But Hanners can't count them as any kind of milestone since she doesn't know about them, as far as we know. If she did know about them, after freaking out initially, she might put them somewhere on her chart of human experiences, but downgraded because she didn't experience them directly, having been unconscious.
I just realized that Hanners must have walked down the street in the middle of the night with a tin of leftover pie. Can't have been the weirdest thing to happen in that town, though.
-
Can't have been the weirdest thing Hannelore's done in that town, though.
Fix'd. Also, why is Hannelore asking for permission to come inside, when she's already inside?
-
Likely permission to come into Mairgold's room, having been let into the apartment by Angus.
Course, I'm speculating here, but seems reasonable.

Ohhh... I was being slow and thought she was talking about something that happened at the party.
Me too. I was scrolling backward to see if there was a day I missed, a kiss, a grope, but nothing. Now that Hodges linked back to the emotional trauma episode, it makes since how Mar-Bear's mind is trying to protect itself by only remembering the good parts of that.
and Marigold must have somehow been drunk enough that she didn't realize Tai was a girl.
Because girls and boy look so similar in our panties.
And Mari-girl definitely needs to go out and get her panties rocked right the hell off. Those psychological bandaids are doing her no favours and are just going to hurt all the more when they get ripped off.
I do love the respective expressions on Hanners and Momo. 4A, same; 4B, so very, very different. Also, no one has mentioned 3A where Momo actually tastes the Hanners's pie.
... That didn't come off like I meant it to.
-
Baby steps, Mari. Yes, you were drunk off your ass when it happened, but someone got to 1st. Now try it sober. (I'm trying to figure out if it's right or wrong that I want Mari and "Alliance SCUM!" to hook up at some point.)
And as for that picture of our prospective Mari..........maybe with a Wonderbra. And a little more acne.
-
You could Photoshop in the complexion problems.
Anyone have a link to the picture of the person Jeph said was closest to his mental picture of Dora?
On the subject of whether it's realistic for Marigold to bounce back like this, I'd argue that she's resilient in the same way that Faye is. She's got working defense mechanisms and got through her adolescence without substance abuse or suicide.
-

Very very drunk.
I just keep thinking something is going to happen where Marigold finds out that she is attracted to girls after all, based on her rather fervent denial to Hanners a while back. It just seemed suspiciously like foreshadowing.

Much like the situation with Pintsize's pube-beard, she must never know the truth.
(can someone find that strip because I even have the search thing and I cannot find it)
-

Depends on whether your mental context is a hate-fucking or not.
-
Ohnorobot seems to have left a number of comics untranscribed. Or people haven't submitted transcriptions, I'm not entirely sure how the service works.
Also, what part of Marigold's social protocol makes it polite to stick her finger in someone else's food? Granted, she's probably quite good at keeping herself clean, but still it's the principle of the thing!
-

Surprisingly, it turns out that some people actually are straight. And sometimes those people, when they realize that they may have accidentally given someone the wrong impression about their orientation, rush to correct said wrong impression as quickly as possible before an already awkward situation gets even worse.
In other words: I personally am not holding my breath waiting for Marigold to discover her inner gay.
-

Mostly in the 800s - like this one (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=832) and this one (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=833).

Whilst it is true that straight people are rare nowadays, they do still exist; kept in secluded spots, away from the general public and living fairly idyllic lifestyles, largely funded by private donations from interested individuals and, of course, the ruler companies.

speak for yourself - I am subsidized by the manufacturers of fine levels.

Okay... I'll say it... between the last panel of today's comic and the third panel of this one (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1671), what the hell is going on with Hanners' face?
-
Levels of what, though—that's the question. My guess is beer.
And Mari-girl definitely needs to go out and get her panties rocked right the hell off. Those psychological bandaids are doing her no favours and are just going to hurt all the more when they get ripped off.
Sure they are. She's dipped her toes in, even if it didn't work out in her favor, and she likes the how the water feels. Yesterday the fondling, tomorrow the penetration! So to speak. Or, to put it in the local parlance, I do believe MG wants moar of that physical stuff.
No one has mentioned 3A where Momo actually tastes the Hanners's pie.
... That didn't come off like I meant it to.
Right. And your Freudian undies are definitely not showing.
Is there any being in QC that someone in these forum isn't plotting to pair Hanners off with?
(That was a cute touch of Jeph's, though.)

God damn, Dale is awesome.

ROFL!!! I thought of this immediately when I saw the strip!! :D

Yep, Marigirl definatly plays a prot warrior. Must be geared out the ass too, considering how much prot PvP has been nerfed because whiny little casters cried about getting their teeth smashed in by 12k shield slam crits that took almost half a minute to set up while here the paladin prot/ret build hasn't been touched and--
Ok, getting off WoW rant now...will try not to go off on a tangent...
Fucking mages...

Man, I am liking Dale more and more. ^_^ And is that a . . . LARP sword behind him on the right?

looks more like a kendo stick. but I am really hoping they become friends or more, they would be awesome together if they every got in a RL fight, taking their anger out on each other's characters. I am really not into shipping, but I like the potential between these two, and I am thinking Jeph is foreshadowing something. just my 2 pennys
-
And thus the MariDale shipping begins. :mrgreen:

Marigold's RL doppelganger is somewhat more attractive than I imagine Marigold to be. Appears to have a more streamlined nose and defined jawline, anyway. And she'd need another 15 lbs or so on her. But the overall resemblance is pretty cool!
-
Man, I am liking Dale more and more. ^_^ And is that a . . . LARP sword behind him on the right?
Looks like a bamboo practice sword used in Kendo. Definitely not LARP material. Those things can be used as lethal weapons, practice sword or not.

Until I saw the Gendo posters, I was thinking Dale really needed Sven's cat right then. Because nothing says plotting like stroking a white cat. Just ask all the dudes that have played Ernst Blofield. Well, those that aren't dead, anyway.

According to Google "This one has potential" doesn't seem to be any kind of famous quote or meme.

It dimly reminds me of the comments of Darth Vader when he engaged Luke Skywalker in battle for the first time, at the end of the original Star Wars movie, later called "A new Hope".
But it was not "This one has potential", more like "The force is strong in this one" or some such.
-
Sorry, did you just call it the original Star Trek movie? I am disgusted.
But yeah he did say "The force is strong with this one" when he was tailing Luke on the Death Star.

First things first, Marigold was simply doing something completely in-character yesterday: tallying up what she's actually accomplished (or, as a WOW'er would probably say, checking out your stats).
Look: she celebrated with a happy dance when she got the rest of her armor; why wouldn't she be happy when she realizes, "hey, I kissed a boy (and I liked it!), and he touched my boob!"?
And as for today... you know, she never did ask Dale what HIS main's name was. Hubris, and all that.

It's amazing. The Angels are all completely redesigned in CGI, and it looks absolutely beautiful. They were also able to make the characters themselves more redeemable; Asuka's not nearly the bitch she was in the original series, and Shinji looks to actually have a pair. The new pilot, Mari, is all sorts of awesome. The only real criticism I've heard is the choice of music during two particular scenes. But if you have a chance to torrent the HD version, it's worth it.

I'm not shipping Marigold and Dale -- in part because the second I root for two characters in anything to get together they won't, but also because I can't tell yet how much they'd have in common beyond WoW and anime (given what's on their walls) -- BUT I do think it would be awesome and fun if they did get together eventually. The nemeses vibe between them now is cool enough though, Kill Bill theme and all. And now, randomly, I want to see Momo do the Dramatic Prairie Dog turn-and-stare.
Question: Is the character in the poster on Dale's wall the same one that Marigold showed her hairstylist to get her current haircut?

Probably not. most gay women aren't into watching hetero sex.
Of course, I could be wrong, not being a lesbian myself. But I do live with a few, and know several others. Among those I know, the thought of hetero sex triggers the "squick" reaction!

Does today's strip count as a fart joke, a toilet joke, or a coitus interruptus joke? All class, all the way in any event. I think Tai's been living in dorms too long, and what's going to happen when she flushes? More screaming from the other side of the curtain, that's what.

It's a triple score, for sure. And flushing's okay, so long as it doesn't do what it did in my dorm. We wrote lyrics about it:
(Sing to the Sons Of The Pioneers' "Cool Water")
Hey there, man, don't you flush that can
'Cause it takes away cold water from my shower.
Shower Shower!
Warm, clean shower
Shower Shower!
If the weather turns cold, the pipes might burst
So I hope I'm the one who gets there first

Well, you get the idea. And yes, as you can see, we didn't get much studying done. Also, our dorm was decrepit.
I'll add I, too, am glad the fart didn't stimulate Marten. Just because.

Also, if "Marten's late because he's having sex with Dora, Dumass," then this comic is rendered completely stupid.
If the comic did make sense, then it would require Tai to happen to fart every morning Marten works, causing Marten to lose his boner while having shower sex.
-
Umm, no. Just no.
Not sure if troll...
[gump]My mama used to say "Troll is as troll does..."[/gump]
-
Let's see if I can decode the issue at hand here:
Skine is complaining because Tai's "so that's why you're always late for work!" comes directly following Marten's complaint that her farting made him lose his boner--rather than the initial reveal that he and Dora are in the shower together. Skine is concerned that this makes it sound like Tai's farting and the subsequent boner-loss is what's somehow making him late.
Forum-goers think that Skine is trolling because it's obvious that Tai's talking about shower sex, and implying that Marten's late because rather than quickly getting ready, he wastes time/gets carried away boning Dora. However, that IS a strange place for Tai to level her accusation, flow-of-dialogue-wise--it really does sound like it's Marten's boner-loss that makes him late.
However, reading the comic again, I'm gonna say that Jeph's thinking was that Marten mentioning his boner is the first concrete proof Tai has that he and Dora are indeed up to sexytimes in the shower. It is also the first time he makes his presence undeniably known. Now, usually Tai is not that naive, and should have gotten from the "we" that both of them are in there, and that they're sexing. But perhaps she was still too sleep-addled to think straight--certainly her weird "it's ok, I won't look, just gonna go potty" insistence makes more sense if she's operating on the mistaken assumption that Dora's just taking a shower by herself, or she and Marten are taking a shower together, but are simply occupied in getting clean and conserving water or whatever.
When Marten speaks up, she finally gets what's going on, and thus makes her accusation re: Marten's lateness habits at that point.
-

I suppose it's because Marten has sex every morning, and Tai realizes this now.
logically, shouldn't that reaction be canceled out by her being all "yay naked woman yay" thus creating a completely neutral reaction?
Even while Tai's lesbian I don't think she has any problem with male nudity. She let here hood pierced while Marten was there, she once tried to pass as a boy and still dresses androgynous. Plus I think here previous Dora-crush, would rather make it: Yay,Dora nude
-
I thought Tai thinks that Faye goes in and farts.
-
Tai's look of realization *and* her fart.
<3
I will make her bi. Even if it's the last thing I do. But not before it kills me, because then I wouldn't be able to perform ungodly things to _and_ with her.
-
I thought Tai thinks that Faye goes in and farts.
Well, but not really logical if it's on daily basis. Because they could either have told Faye the first time, so no daily boner-loss. Another point is that if someone would fart daily you would get desensitized after a while and it won't bother him much anymore.
I remember that Dora had some kind of questionnaire when they started their relationship about the fetishes Marten might had. 603 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=603) Which refers to some unpleasant related experience Dora had in the past.
-
Marten's such a delicate boy. :roll:
You know, as good as might sound in theory, shower sex isn't all that great. Mostly because people tend to think of water as a lubricant, which it really isn't. Which is probably why the quickie didn't survive Tai's interruption.

doesn't matter that it's not a lubricant - there is still the delicate way the light reflects off the water on your partner's skin, and the opportunity for much physical contact while you are soaping them up..

What she said. Well, minus 'sexytimes.'
I think there is one further caveat. Skine seems to be operating under the idea (most straight guys would have this perception, I think) that if a man and woman are sharing a shower, they must be screwing, not just showering. Otherwise, why shower in the first place? (kidding, kidding) If you assume that perception to be Tai's, too, the whole strip falls apart, reality unzips, and we all fall into the gaping mouth of meaninglessness. OTOH, if we go with the idea that Tai's thinking the way JackFaerie suggests, the comic makes sense.
I don't know many lesbians (or at least, if I know them, I don't know they're lesbians—'its a deep-South thing, plus being NOMGB*), but I can believe they might not think exactly like straight men. Who do think, btw, common myths notwithstanding.
*None Of My Goddamn Business—also a deep-South thing, but not adhered to as much, sadly.
Edit: that should be "Otherwise, why shower together in the first place?" but it wasn't as funny. I am not the man to let the opportunity to make a lame joke pass me by.

*shrug* Me and my partner shower together every day, but we don't have sex in there anymore. Shower sex is kinda lame. Too awkward.
I reckon I'm on your side. When I heard they were in the shower together, it didn't occur to me that they were having sex until Martin said he lost his boner.

Well yes, lesbians not thinking exactly like straight men being similar to gay men not thinking exactly like straight women, plus the whole variation in thought process between individuals based on personality and experiences . . . >_> Anyway, though shower sex can be fun, the problem with the water is not that it doesn't act as a lubricant (it doesn't) but that it dilutes any lubricant being created/used. Apparently Dora produces or uses enough to make the situation viable.
I'm a little surprised Dora and Marten didn't lock the bathroom door (I mean, hellooo, they live with Pintsize -- posting in flagrante pics of them on teh internets would be right up his, er, alley). They must have forgotten that No-Boundaries-Tai was still in the apartment -- possibly without her panties anymore, since they don't appear in any of the panels. Faye's lucky she wasn't the one in the shower. Or, more accurately, Tai's lucky Faye wasn't.

Dora didn't move in with Marten until Comic 1591 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1591). So at the time of 852, pre-work communal showersex would have been the exception rather than the rule.
Skimming through the archive from 1591 to the present, today's timekeeping reference is the first Tai has made since Dora moved in.

Heh, Jeph talking about his experience with the co-ed shower and people having sex in it.
So true.
Heck, I spent a couple years in an all guy dorm before and have encountered not only people have sex (actually on the floor, which is super disgusting considering what some guys do in the shower) but for some odd reason there was a lone female taking a shower, with the curtains pulled apart and pleasuring herself.
Alone.

Tai goes into bathroom.
Someone(Dora) mentions they're kinda showering.
Tai says she won't look if they don't look.
Dora starts to explain her gist and Tai farts.
Marten hears it and comments on how he just lost his boner because Tai's fart grossed him out.
Tai comments that she now gets why Marten is 10 minutes late to work in the morning.
I'm confused, what is there to not get?
-
Yay Comic !
I am pretty sure Dora wouldnt have liked it if Marten would be into that.
I think it's mostly that your IQ doesn't even approach room temperature.
Ok, can we now go back to being nice and civil again ? Thanks a lot.
-
I don't understand the last word balloon for Friday's comic. Hasn't Dora already made sure that Marten is not "into that"? http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=603 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=603)

I'm sorry, but the two things that should never be considered sexy are pee and poop. Especially peeing and/or pooping on someone.
-
Remember, just 'cause you don't get the joke doesn't mean it isn't funny!
But .. but .. the world evolves around me !
Everything I dont understand isnt real !
SCNR :-D
(Imagine that would be true and the person in question would be a man. Byebye all women in the world :roll: :-D :lol: !!!)
Revolves. The world won't evolve around you, since from what we've seen, your chance of procreating is pretty close to zero.
Bye-bye, shallow end of the gene pool...
As I understand sporadious comments from lesbians, they are really turned off by male errections, though.
Sporadious? Wortesbuch, dude.
Ok, change of plans. You try to be less nice. Then maybe you'll come out at the other side again.

We don't know if he ever actually answered that question or not.
Even if he did, Martin could have changed in 1092 strips.
Also, it's just a joke. It doesn't really matter if Martin is actually into it or not.
-
I'm not much (read at all) for golden showers, but so long as Tai doesn't actually want to smear Marten's shit in her pits, I guess I can hang.
(Yes, this has been done. You don't want to know the lengths some hunters will go to smell like, say, a deer.)
-
I know; my dog does it.
-
Hmmmmmm
Bottled Marten - would that sell for more than Chanel No 5 or less? :-D
-
One of the idiosyncracies of Jeph's art has always been that his men do not have lips, while his women do. Today's strip (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1695) is the first time (that I can recall) that he has broken this rule - Marten has a proper lower lip in the last frame, and looks all the better for it I think.

That's why I thought Marten looked more feminine and Dora-esque than usual in that panel.
I am ambivalent about this change. :|
Edit: Tai looks awesome in this whole strip, though - especially the second and third panels.
-
Excellent facial expressions today, especially in the last panel. I'll let the golden shower jokes pass in silence; I suspect Dora is taking the piss (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=taking+the+piss) (link provided for USAnians).

Tai looks a bit odd in today's strip, art-wise

Oh, I'm still being nice. You don't want the not-nice.
But I am getting tired of telling you to use your fucking Wörterbuch!
And nothing I said in that last post isn't anything you haven't confirmed already...

I was wondering when someone would hang a lampshade on this... talent of Marten's.

There's a fine line between wingman and bait. Tai uses that line for a lasso.

Funny you should mention that, because today i'm feeling fat. and sassy!
-
Sadly enough, I had a "friend" who used to hang out with me for this very reason.
-
So let me get this straight. It's ok to do a comic where someone insinuates urinating and going all R Kelly on someone, but it's degrading to shoot a bottle rocket out of someone’s ass, because as we all know that pissing on someone in order to get your rocks off isn't degrading at all! (Sarcasm) :roll:
-
Ok, I've checked my posting history and I still dont get it.
Anyone has any clue whatsoever where I "admitted" I would "be lost to the gene pool" ?
I mean it would be fun to know where I admitted things I dont even know about myself ...
-
I doubt it would be okay to do an R. Kelly reference, as that would be pedophilia. Granted, that did not stop The Boondocks at all.
But aside from that, there's a difference between referencing an act, and portraying that act; as well as the matter of consent.

Good lord, between the language barrier you regularly erect and your willful ignorance, it's really getting tiresome.
Please, stop assuming you know what we mean, and start reading what we write. You might learn something, but at this point I'm beginning to doubt it.
I think I'll join JackFaerie and ignore you. It's more for my own sanity, really. At this point, I'm pretty sure you're a lost cause.
Have a nice life, if you can call it that.
-
pissing on someone in order to get your rocks off isn't degrading at all! (Sarcasm) :roll:
Not when it's happily consentual, no.
If you don't understand the difference consent makes... uh... well, you join R. Kelly in the creepy file.
But I'll keep in mind that you have no problems with asses being used as launching pads the next time I want to set off fireworks or bottle rockets.
-
No problem at all, assume the position and I'll light the fuse, tool.
-
Don't make me angry.
You wouldn't LIKE me when I'm angry.
-
Why, would it make a difference?
:angel:
-

You say that like there aren't such people. I know, or knew, a few guys that would give a try, so long as you provided the beer. Good luck getting them into panties, though.
That'd take whiskey, I think. It never came up.
The problem, m'dears, with launching the little (not the big ones, mind) bottle rockets that way is not that it's painful to hold the rocket—we used to launch them from our bare hands and got nary a burn. It's just that there's always the chance the silly thing will blow up without bothering to launch. That's where the pain comes in, and the emergency room, and so on. Unless, of course, you're Yosemite Sam, or, I don't know, some other prank cartoon character.
-

This isn't contradicting my point about you being in the creepy asshole file. Sadly, it does show you lack reading skills. I said I wanted to set off the fireworks.
But then again maybe it's just that you seem to think it's totally fine to use people's intimate body parts as objects for degrading tasks only when those people are women. Which would be typical enough.
You say that like there aren't such people. I know, or knew, a few guys that would give a try, so long as you provided the beer. Good luck getting them into panties, though.
At which point it would be consentual and thus happy-ok-go-go. :)

I usually just refer to the fourth "I'd really rather you didn't" when making decisions on which fetishes/sexual practices I should condemn:
I'd Really Rather You Didn't Indulge In Conduct That Offends Yourself, Or Your Willing, Consenting Partner Of Legal Age AND Mental Maturity. As For Anyone Else Who Might Object, I Think The Expression Is Go Fuck Yourself, Unless They Find That Offensive In Which Case They Can Turn Off The TVInternet Machine For Once And Go For A Walk For A Change
Also relevant is the eighth:
I'd Really Rather You Didn't Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You If You Are Into, Um, Stuff That Uses Alot Of Leather/Lubrication/Las Vegas. If The Other Person Is Into It However (Pursuant To #4), Then Have At It, Take Pictures, And For The Love Of Mike, Wear A CONDOM! Honestly It's A Piece Of Rubber, If I Didn't Want It To Feel Good When You Did It I Would Have Added Spikes, Or Something.
But I ALWAYS observe the fifth:
I'd Really Rather You Didn't Challenge The Bigoted, Misogynist, Hateful Ideas Of Others On An Empty Stomach. Eat, Then Go After The Bastards.
That's probably why I'm so Cuddly!
Thus sayeth the Flying Spaghetti Monster, Ramen!

So you have felt the touch of His Noodly Appendage?

No, but I have heard tales of his noodly goodness.

noodly, noodly, noodly, noodly,
noodly, noodly, noodly, noodly...
well, you get the idea.

Aha. More insults and completely unable to explain themselves. Surprise !
Good lord, between the language barrier you regularly erect and your willful ignorance, it's really getting tiresome.
I understand each and every word you wrote.
I think I'll join JackFaerie and ignore you.
Sadly this forum doesnt feature an "ignore" option. Because at this point, I would have used it.

OK, look. I was being pretty mean, and I apologize for that.
I'm also happy to explain what I meant, though you really should have been able to suss it out yourself. It really isn't al that hard, but you need to read between the lines and be a little self-aware...
There's nothing you've "admitted" to (which is why I didn't use that word). What's removing you from the gene pool is your attitudes. You profess to be a NiceGuyTM, and you think it will work, despite the evidence to the contrary. NiceGuysTM just don't get into functioning relationships!
Several other posts reveal your attitudes about gender and emotion. While you may find a woman who appreciates a man who represses everything, the eventual boil-over will wreck whatever you can build with her.
It really lowers your chances, although accidents do happen.
Add to that your unwillingness to acknowledge that you might not be correct, and the likelihood of you ever changing is pretty small, reducing your chances of procreation even further.
At any rate, I was in a crappy mood when I responded yesterday, and was very short (downright mean, actually) with you. My apologies for that. There’s a lot here you can learn, and I hope you keep trying.
And I'm glad you didn't give up on us completely. I know there's something that keeps bringing you back, engaging with us, and that's the best hope I have!
PS - here's a good trick I started using a while back, because I'm a lousy typist. If you have a recent version of Word or some other good word processor, set the preffered language to English and cut and paste your post into it before posting. It catches a lot of spelling and gramatical stuff before you post. It wouldn't have caught "evolve", but definitely would have caught "sporadious" for you!

And you aren't contradicting my point about you being a tool Jackie boy, I'd start there first.

I added a neat little feature to the site today- from now on, when you're in the archives you can click the comic itself and it will take you to the next one! No more hunting for those pesky "next" buttons as you're going through the story! Woo!
It was on the news post for 1688, the one where Tai got drunk at the party and lost her pants.

It's ok, my imaginary penis is still bigger than his. :-D So's my non-imaginary one, of the battery-operated type that stays under my bed. That's what me being a tool means, yes? Or having a tool, anyway?
-
No, describing the penis under your bed probably means TMI. I have ordinary monsters there, myself, and I've no desire to know how, or if, they're hung.
-
You do realize that they're reproducing down there, right?
I mean, the things that go hump bump in the night must come from somewhere...

Hot.
I do so love a girl with an enormous tool. Especially if they know how to use it properly. :police:
-
Me, too. I can just see it now. She comes to my house, giving me a confident grin as she strides through the door, because we both know why she's here and what's about to happen, and she knows I really can't wait.
Then, she slowly pulls out her
enourmous
rigid
plumber's wrench…and then replaces my leaky tub faucet.
Oooo, baby.
(And I assure you, no sexual innuendo you can attach to this scenario could be as good for me as the real thing. I'm horrible with plumbing, short on cash, the fixture's older than I am, god help us, and, well, you'd have to see it to understand.)

If you have a recent version of Word or some other good word processor, set the preffered language to English
However, it helps to choose a word processor that knows how to spell "preferred" correctly. :-D
Better tip - use a browser like Firefox which has add-in dictionaries. I am using British English for Firefox (which, hilariously, flags "Firefox" as a spelling mistake - suggested alternatives are Firebox, Fire fox, Fire-fox, Firefly, Firewood).
-
Man, when I read "firewood", I was tempted to make a boner joke*, but only because I am so tired that it didn't click in my brain what firewood is, or that it is a real word. Now it sounds like a nickname for an STD.
*screw it:
hurr hurr hurr firewood hurr hurr
-
Firewood is a completely lame name for an STD, and I'm sure by now you are totally embarrassed that you ever mentioned it.
Firebox, on the other hand, succeeds in every way.
It doesn't make me chuckle though.
<thinks> <--------Do not try at home!
On the other hand, messing around with firebox could give you firewood.
hurr hurr hurr firebox, firewood hurr hurr
And three hours of sleep in 24 apparently really aren't enough at my age.

"Firewood" would be an excellent ER-doctor nickname for the effect of an overdose of Viagra or Cialis.

I should think that would be "Hardwood." Or some variety thereof. I can hear is on the ambulance radio now:
ER Tech: "We're bringing a case of hardwood in."
Dispatch: "How bad is it?"
ER Tech: "Looks like oak—gonna be a doosey to turn it to pine."
