Panel 3 concerns me in a way. I'm wondering if, on a certain level, Roko doesn't believe that she can be nice; that the only way she can help May is effectively by shouting at people (and coercing them in other ways too)!Of course, look at her blush. She's deeply unsettled about the compliment she just got.
We've seen Pintsize removing his 'hand' and 'foot' attachments without any difficulty. I'm thinking that they have universal interface sockets of some sort so, yes, he has the capability. However, to make mayhem, one would have to buy the tool attachments and I think that the only tools Pintsize would be interested in attaching to them would be entirely R-rated and impossible to get without Marten knowing and confiscating them!

"And now, a man with three buttocks!"Probably beats the woman with 3 boobs. One of which was fake we found out the next day, but whatever.
I hadn't noticed the "couple" pictures before. They're pretty dang adorable.
I wonder if they will remember that there is an art gallery that has an interest in Faye's creations.
With the amount of spare parts of questionable usability that can found in pretty much any service shop, I don't see why she can't just weld some bits together into something surprising and saleable.
Hanging there still, hasn't sold yet. But, the gallery operator knows the business and knows it will move when the right customers sees it.I wonder if they will remember that there is an art gallery that has an interest in Faye's creations.

Frankly I am surprised this hasn't been explored yet at all. From the information we've been given, they seem to have a good amount of down-time in the shop, so there appears to be ample opportunity for Faye to work on side-projects. The revenue from that would give them a lot more breathing room.
Plus, it could open up some interesting avenues to explore, e.g. how would Bubbles feel about AI's former chassis being used as art supplies?
Perhaps JJ had forgotten about the art gallery buying Faye's creation and doesn't want to re-introduce it into the storylines at this point?
Probably beats the woman with 3 boobs.
Speaking of [Pintsize], it's been a while since we've seen any update on his commission at Union Robotics.Yeah, I wanna know if he's fucked a tugboat yet.
Sam is very stubborn. Or hyper-focused.
She has Faye's phone number, she just could've called or texted asking about their ETA. But climbing through a small window eight feet (243cm) off the ground is at least reckless. maybe a tad overexcited (https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3592).
Point is, it's Faye's and Bubbles' Shop, not Sam's, and if she wants to use the space she needs to make sure it's available. Not "go through the wall with her head" / just rush through everything.
Maybe it's time for Union Robotics to set up a proper booking system for Sam...
Better question: how did Swordsmary get in?
Better question: how did Swordsmary get in?
Sam is a kid who has not yet been worn down, weighed down, or limiting herself by the words "can't do" yet. And that is not a negative for a girl (or any youth) at her age.
She's also a teenager that hasn't learned the value of any variation of the words shouldn't do. Which is a negative for anyone of any age. Especially when she's taking advantage of the hospitality of a small business that might not have enough liability insurance to cover if she were to fall and break something vital. And is quite possibly setting them up to run afoul of child labor laws. And is definitely setting them up to run afoul of regulations regarding children around machining/metalforming/welding/etc equipment (actually forget the child bit, just regulations concerning proper protective clothing around said equipment).
TL;DR - Kid needs an attitude adjustment and Jim needs to start taking a much more active role in parenting her.
Nah, my parents house wasn't at all welcoming of British humor until long after I left; Benny Hill was actively discouraged, etc. I have yet to see an episode of M.P. Flying Circus, though I have seen all the movies and own many on DVD.Probably beats the woman with 3 boobs.
Ahh, youth. 'twas an M. Python reference.
I wonder if they will remember that there is an art gallery that has an interest in Faye's creations.There is a *leetle* bit more to good art than that. :laugh: I make the odd prop for theatricals every once in a while - I've gotten the reputation for doing the weirdo props no one else can figure out how to make. Nazi-saluting pigeons (Producers), self-rising cakes with lit candles (Mary Poppins), one-handed controllable cobra in a basket (Drowsy Chaperone), things like that. They all take a little more than just welding a pile of scrap together. And I make practical pieces, not fine art.

Yeah, the trend might fade away, but Union Robotics might go bust long before that happens.
I can feel where Faye is coming from, this is her and Bubbles' business, not Sam's. She's there as a sort of unpaid intern, she isn't contributing anything to the business and yet Sam's business is growing faster and stronger than UR. That's disheartening for anyone.
Has it ever been established if Union Robotics gets a cut from the sprays?
Jeph has now mentioned the elephant in the room of Faye and Bubbles.
A synthetic pointed out to her companion, in front of Faye, that her companion is entirely biodegradable and impermanent.
Faye and Bubbles are already living together and have made an explicit verbal commitment to stay together. Legal documentation will follow, I am sure.
They will have to work through the fact that Bubbles is going to spend the next sixty years watching the wife she loves decline, get sick, and stop working with no chance of repair.
I will make a random guess that Bubbles will handle the issue better than Faye will.

Get them into the shop. Elementary marketing #1. That's what Sam is doing for Union Robotics.
I think I see what you mean, but they don't want to keep them there, they want to get them in the habit of coming back (think outpatient clinic rather than hospital). Periodically refreshing a spray will do that quite well. It's only a matter of time before one of Sam's clients is suffering from buttus comelooseus and says, "Hey, my ass is rattling, can you guys fix that?"Get them into the shop. Elementary marketing #1. That's what Sam is doing for Union Robotics.
Which would be great if they were staying for a checkup or to get a repair done and from the looks of it, that's not happening. Getting them into the shop is one thing, keeping them there is something else entirely.
Sam's not being an asshole, she just definitely hyper-focused on her work.I dunno, if you don't think Sam's taking a little bit back for the resentful sweeping (https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4079) then you must have been very odd teenagers...
If synthetics are subject to our cognitive error of confusing familiar with good, then being in UR routinely will make it seem like a more desirable place to them for their 7,500 mile service or plastic surgery.
I wonder if Sam's work could be digitized or if she could work on a computer doing the designs, then yeah, as mentioned, the designs could be laser etched or otherwise made permanent, generating more revenue for the shop.The one-time fee would no doubt be higher, but regular renewal would make a more reliable income stream. For a business a customer in the door is good, back in the door is better, back in the door on a regular basis is best. I'll guarantee you the shop that does the oil changes on your car had a conversation very much like this when 10K mile synthetic motor oil came out and drivers were no longer told they had to come in every 2,000 miles. (Whether or not that requirement was real or just marketing hype is another topic.)
