Yeah. I think that's the best picture of "distraught" Jeph's done yet.

I can't believe Bubbles has been around long enough for the art to look that different. I am baffled at how quickly time moves in real life relative to this comic.
Yeah, when you think about it, time really does go by faster than you think.
52 weeks x 5 strips/day = 260 strips/year
3965 strips / 260 strips/year = 15.25 YEARS.
5 strips/day

According to the About page, QC started August 1st, 2003, with three strips a week for what I calculated as roughly the first year (it's been running 23 weeks longer than it should be with five times a week and not missing a single day). I've been reading since somewhere in 2011 (I think, it's what I figured out from what I thought to be the first strips I remember reading before actually starting at 1).
Tomorrow, Friday March 22nd, it's going to be fifteen years, seven months and three weeks since the comic started. Or five thousand seven hundred and twelve days. Yes, I did type that out, because yeah, it DOES feel like a lot, looking at the numbers. Dammit Jeph!
I think I came here because I followed a link from XKCD.
Jesus Christ. I think I started reading in 2004. Where the fuck did I even find this comic? It's been a part of my life for long enough that I don't remember how I got here.

Same here. I have no clue whatsoever.
I came here from a link on "Unshelved" about the time Martin got his job at the library (https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=691), comic number 691. I am the husband of a librarian, and the farther of a librarian (both now retired).

Music + Science = Sexy.Music * Math = RUSH :-D
Goddammit Jeph!
And thanks for the entertainment.
Although I'm 72, I am not the oldest person who still contributes to this forum.
I think that, to a degree, how one sees their age is simply a matter of perspective. Most of the time, I feel like I have one foot in the grave, despite only being in my '30s since I'm surrounded by university students on a constant basis. On the other, I feel young again when I head to one of the local bars around happy hour.I'm 50 but I feel like I'm 20.
Random-Diving through the archives I realized Renée's encounter with Peter (https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3935) might not have been the first encounter we had (https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=822).That's not our encounter tho'. It's a second hand account of an individual who might have been Peter.
Just finished binging the whole series. I would have to say the most sad feels-ridden moments for me were the two breakups. Followed closely by "the talk"

I'm sure I remember more than 2 breakups. And what do you mean by "the talk"? The talk between Hannelore and her mother?
MarigoldSkye, The Talk happened about a decade and a half ago. Spoiling that Faye's dad killed himself in front of her is like spoiling "Luke, I am your father."
He was Luke's FATHER!? Aww, I was maybe going to watch that movie some time in the next 50 years.

For me, it was about 5 days ago. Just thinking of noobs like myself. :-P
True on both counts. I wasn't trying to be snarky; just pointing out that The Talk was essentially the turning point of the comic.
The three main turning points of the comic would have to be, in order: The Talk, The Breakup (Marten and Dora), and Coming Out (Claire).
