I can't remember the strip number (CelticGeek, are you there to help?), but during one of Marigirl's repair sessions she commented that the military bodies were robust. (Or was that a tweet?)

Right. Given that they're designed to walk around, hop on and off furniture, etc., they presumably have far sturdier shock protection than your typical desktop PC. They may get by by having a lot more RAM than a non-sentient computer, so when the shock-detector kicks in they don't have to wait for semi-vital processes to come out of swap.

Pintsize has a mere 512MB, allegedly: http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=629

Found it, it was a tweet:

I can't read anything I wrote in HS - I was taking notes in Norse runes.

Talk about both being both bored and nerdy!

I've just come to the conclusion that I'll never be cool

All I ever did other than take notes was draw maps of random areas of the world from memory and massive stick figure battles that raged across and between the lines of my notebook paper.

Yesterday's poll results:
1. Bouncer at Chuck E Cheese    - 6 (13%)
2. "Before" model in all-new Charles Atlas campaign    - 13 (28.3%)
3. Pick holder at rock concert    - 12 (26.1%)
4. Model for American Apparel's new line of men's belly shirts    - 10 (21.7%)
5. Body double for Jason Alexander in upcoming Jenny Craig ad—bikini and all    - 5 (10.9%)

When I wrote this, I had no idea Charles Atlas, Ltd. was still in business, and was sure I'd get many 'wha?" reactions. I guess you guys knew better.

Knew I should have gone with Kevin Smith for #5.

Oh, and having reviewed comics 1413 - 7, I have this to say: WaaaGooshGooshGoosh never grows stale.

Hey! Who turned up the damn thermostat?!?

Aw, Faye looks so cute with a skinny lesbian cuddling her bosom.

She almost seems disappointed that Tai doesn't want to make out with her.

In my social circle, it is considered weird to NOT make yourself comfy in the laps of others.

I will never understand how it could be otherwise.

Again I am impressed by the "new" Faye's self control. The old Faye would've launched Tai across the room. With predjudice.

akronnick · « **Reply #67 on:** 17 Feb 2010, 03:53 »

Maybe not if she'd had enough to drink.

In that case she'd head butt her in the junk and puke all over her.

Mr_Rose · « **Reply #68 on:** 17 Feb 2010, 04:11 »

Maybe Dora's conditioning is working and Faye's getting used to being cuddled on by skinny girls?

Border Reiver · « **Reply #69 on:** 17 Feb 2010, 04:25 »

My first thoughts after seeing Faye's reaction:

"I felt a disturbance in the force. Like a million shippers screaming out, and then silence."

Sir Alex was saying the lines too.

How would one combine Faye and Tai's names? Fai? Taye? T'Faye?

You know, if one were so inclined?

It took me a minute after starting to read this strip to realize that the first line did not, in fact, come from a drunk boobmonster on Faye's shirt.

JesterJared · « **Reply #85 on:** 17 Feb 2010, 10:42 »

This leads me to believe we need a recurring gay boy in this comic. Marten's dad's 1 appearance isn't enough!

raoullefere · « **Reply #86 on:** 17 Feb 2010, 10:52 »

What could possibly go wrong? The mind boggles. Of course, I admit I hang pictures with yardsticks, plumb bobs, spirit levels, and laser sighting devices all ready to hand. I sit before the wall, contemplate it, grok its fullness. Because that damned nail hole is going be there forever.

Jeph should do a special on his site. Pay $50, send him a picture and he draws you cuddling with Faye.

For some reason I foresee the next strip being one where Faye and Tai wake in the same bed think they did it with each other then out of nowhere Pintsize pops up out of the covers.

Seriously. I used to like Tai all right, but her "waaah waaah I'm so lonely and horny won't somebody FUCK ME preferably Dora but I'll take Faye JUST FUCK MEEEE" shtick is getting really old. Time for her to be put on a bus, at least for a bit.

Shadic · « **Reply #91 on:** 17 Feb 2010, 12:30 »

I like how people bitched about Angus dancing with Marigold as basically harassing her, but Tai basically climbing on and cuddling Faye is totally a-ok, because, you know, "Hurr! Hot chicks on eachother! Angus sucks!

I only just noticed the radical perspective change in panel two. Look, it's the couch from Dora's apartment! I always thought there was more apartment in that direction, but apparently it's just a wall.

What does Marten's apartment look like, anyway? We only ever see one or two parts of it. I wouldn't be able to tell where the bathroom, Faye's bedroom or that window where Steve proposed hot gay sex is.

I don't know why, but this made me think of the "Isn't it nuts?" scenes in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, although Pintsize isn't big enough to impersonate even Tai. If only he could get his USB cable into the Boyfriendbot.

To be fair to Tai (can't believe I'm doing that), Faye brought up making out, which is kind of asking for the poke she got. Well, not literally, but you know what I mean.

And Tai is definitely a cute drunk - Even though Faye is probably going to kill her.
