That's half the fun

I see no Sweet-Tits option. This disappoints me. Sooo...

Other, Jimbo, and Steve. Other for S-T, Jimbo for the fact that he makes me laugh whenever he's in the comic, and Steve because his scenes are always hilariously awesome, and the fact that he used to be a main character. Whatever happened to you, Steve?

He realised that hanging around with Marten just meant getting drunk and listening to him talking about indie music, so he thought "fuck that noise" and left

championofkhorne · « **Reply #54 on:** 24 Mar 2009, 20:32 »

he kept getting depressed because marten gets laid more times then him now

Waferman · « **Reply #55 on:** 03 May 2009, 13:18 »

"Yeah, whatever happened to Raven?" Rhetorically inquired Waferman.

Siibillam-Law · « **Reply #56 on:** 03 May 2009, 14:16 »

....

She's dead. We'll never see her again.

There.

Mabus_Zero · « **Reply #57 on:** 07 May 2009, 15:59 »

Well at least she left the way all emo kids hope to go. In a coffin. With her wrists slashed.

But was it suicide, or was it murder?

It was a velocoraptor. The world of QC is very like the one off the Flintstones

Dude, look at the cranial ridge; if Dino was a velociraptor he would have eaten the Flinstones.

You know your thread has gone off-topic when the people who aren't debating the realism of the Flinstones (albeit sarcastically) are talking about "hot gaycest".

Siibillam-Law · « **Reply #63 on:** 09 May 2009, 07:45 »

Oh, and like Wil or something should be part of the regular cast. Or whatever.

Hmm what would be QC's version of the Great Kazoo?(or is it Gazoo?)

And what trouble would Pintsize get into with him/it?

Norton Quintessential · « **Reply #65 on:** 10 May 2009, 06:00 »

Pintsize IS the great Gazoo.

If twins engage in twincest and have children... Wouldn't the children just be clones?

Raven is awesome in most measurable ways. Fun, cute, cheerful and intelligent without the sadness that brains usually confer. Jeph kinda gave her a side mention in the sledging pages, in the background (yeah i know that's the person she's based on but it gives him an out in the future!)

You have the spelling and word order a little mixed up.

Quote from: Norton Quintessential on 10 May 2009, 06:00

Pintsize IS Gonzo the Great.

There ya go.

Except that boy-girl twins are not identical.

MarkTBSc · « **Reply #69 on:** 11 May 2009, 03:48 »

Well now that's just discrimination.

I think we should protest.

raoullefere · « **Reply #70 on:** 11 May 2009, 07:27 »

What, going to sue your genes?

MarkTBSc · « **Reply #71 on:** 11 May 2009, 07:54 »

Now you're just being silly.

I was thinking more of a strongly worded letter to the Times.

Okay, let's leave that bit for the nonce. Suppose female lesbian identical twins decided they wanted to get married and have eachother's clone babies, somehow overcoming the lack of sperm and managing to fertilize one egg with another. Would they end up with a clone? No.

We all know from our bio/health classes that our chromosomes come in pairs, and that during meiosis the pairs split up and each goes into a gamete. This explanation is ... okay, but incomplete.

See, you have two chromosomes A & B that are paired up. But if you produce two sperm (assuming you're male; ladies, your gonads are too complex for the purposes of this discussion), then it is not the case that one will get chromosome A and the other chromosome B. Instead, there's a process during the production of the gametes such that the two chromosomes are essentially shuffled together and each sperm will get a chromosome that is part A and part B.

Thus, our twincestuous lesbians will produce someone who is genetically a very close sister and who is also very likely to have severe defects.

pwhodges · « **Reply #73 on:** 12 May 2009, 15:28 »

And remember that not all the DNA is in the chromosomes, either, and we don't know so much about the transmission of this mitochondrial DNA.

Wow so I voted those who were most voted already without even knowing. Raven, Steve and Wil. There's lots of variety though, the highest ranked only has 20%.

I don't believe Raven deserved to be in the list. Imean, she is one of the regulars right? Certainly not as important as the top 4 (Marten, Faye, Dora, PintSize), but she's one of the regulars for sure. I'd never assume she was to disappear, even if she's getting a lot less attention lately. She was never particularly developed, but always around. One of the oldest characters without much of their own space.
In short, she'll never be third- or fourth-tier enough to merit this sort of "offstage concern" thing, in my opinion.

If someone said something like this already? Count me as agreeing.

Steve is a total classic, and the last twist is just "da awsumm." He has to stay, through and through. He adds a lot to the strip, and not just random fun. He's a nice complement to the rest, especially Marten. I believe he's pretty different yet also one of the most normal characters (QC world craziness aside).
I doubt he'll ever go away, he has an even stronger lasting presence than Raven, and his own sub-plots too. Just because he's not a common presence doesn't mean Mr. Jacques is getting rid of him.

Wil is funny in ways similar to Hanners. We all just wanna see what goes on with Penny and him, right?

I didn't bother voting for Jimbo because he will stick around I think. Plus I'm ok with him remaining a very occasional, one-dimensional character. I'm pretty sure his butt is glued to that barstool too
