well the story kinda runs along the same date as we do now, if he ever wanted to pitch in valentines this would be a good time...

That's probably wrong because it's been winter in QC for about two years now.

"It's something like late-winter/early-spring in QC time" right now, per #1844 newspost. Mid-February would be about right.

[bicostp]

I wish mid-February in New England was "early-spring". It's probably around late March or early April.

[DSL]

OK, Hanners, lemme give it a shot, here.
See, since the enjoyment of coffee or anything else is a subjective thing,  objectivity doesn't enter into it. So my brain isn't lying to me (this time, anyway) ... it's all part of the subjective experience of the coffee. In fact (Real World switch), your Intense Face in panel 4 triggered some happy chemicals in my brain, making my cup of convenience-store, push-button cheap-o-cino taste better.
Now (back in QC-world): Since a good bit of what made me enjoy this coffee is stuff I brought myself, in my very own brain, tell your boss over there I want a dollar off.

[akronnick]

Yeah, doesn't work that way.

The $4.50 is for the flavorful oleoresins suspended in hot sugar syrup.

How you experience the consumption of said product is your business.

[knucklesandgyros]

Coffee Baristas by day...Kung Fu Rival Gangs by night? I smell a sitcom!

I also notice that Faye's hair looks a little longer than usual. Has there been a time skip or just another shift in the artistic evolution of this comic?

[Torlek]

So, PseuDora is Indian in descent. I thought she looked as much. So I guess that only leaves faye-tai as Angus's ex and Marten needing to hook up with Padma and we shall have complete mirroring. Then Northampton will be swallowed by the singularity that opens between CoD and TSB.

[akronnick]

When did QC turn into 'Kill Bill'?

[Carl-E]

Kill Bill, or Scott Pilgrim? 

[akronnick]

Haven't read or seen Scott Pilgrim.







 *ducks*
I'm probably going to catch a lot of crap admitting that here. I should probably just delete my account now...

[Carl-E]

Angus:  "Oh,, sorry, I forgot to mention, you'll have to kill the other baristas I've dated."

[ysth]

So what's the Secret Bakery analogue of Faye's "sculpture"?

[Sharp]

Agreeing with a lot of other people: I like Faye's longer hair! Here's hoping it's showing a time skip, because I'd like to see Marten on the tail end of his funk. SMILE BOY.

[ndperfesser]

When did QC turn into 'Kill Bill'?

Somewhere around here.

[Is it cold in here?]

What will the Pugnacious Peach do when she finds out that Marten went to the Secret Bakery and liked it?

[songblade]

Kill Bill, or Scott Pilgrim? 

I thought "Man, too much Scott Pilgrim for Jeph" too.

[horsefish]

speed lines make everything better

So, are they defending the honor of their respective coffeeshops, or are they just sizing each other up?

[AngryCallCenterAgent]

Now that she's been introduced properly... "HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER!" or if you prefer: "IIITTTSSS... TTTIIIMMMEEE!!! For the main event of the evening! Three rounds! In the Variable Geo Championship's international division! Introducing first: FIGHTING OUT OF THE COFFEE OF DOOOOOM!..."
'though I referenced BG, get your heads out of the gutter, this international division's likely headed by Dana White, still, so no post-fight shenanigans. Even if it is apt for Faye to run around the ring giving the jam-packed stadium the middle finger and telling everyone she'll drink from CoD and not Bud Light because Bud Light won't pay her nothin'.

[bicostp]

So what's the Secret Bakery analogue of Faye's "sculpture"?

A triceratops percolator?

[Torlek]

So what's the Secret Bakery analogue of Faye's "sculpture"?

I was thinking stegosaurus coffee grinder.

[musicalsoul]

Did anyone else notice that Hannelore's hair was also longer in yesterday's strip. Anyway, I'm liking Faye's slightly longer hair. It looks good :-]

And just because I can: 

[Carl-E]

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should...

Yes, they do!

[PenguinNinja1408]

I was going through some of the more recent comics in random and found this.

http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1363

Does anyone else think this refers to Padma?

[The Seldom Killer]

If this goes any further I'm going to have to start queueing up the Golden Harvest theme music before opeing each strip.

Brilliant.

Although I did laugh out loud and now my girlfriend is awake and would like to know why I'm an idiot.

[CompSarge]

Yay! More Secret Bakery shenanigans!  This is going to turn into a very entertaining arc.





And, because I'm playing Pokemon as I type this: 

[Blackjoker]

Hmm, could this secret bakery girl be Angus' ex?

[Sharp]

Angus seems a bit too pleased to see Padma for her to be his ex. Your link shows that it was a very sour relationship that ended badly. MAYBE it's the other coffeeshop girl, but I sincerely doubt it.

(am I the only one who misses Cossette's roomate? She was fun for the three comics she was in... )

[CEOIII]

Um............we're taking swings at people in the street for no reason now?

[snubnose]

Oh, QC has Padme now.

Very Star Wars-y.

(I'm planning to play Star Wars: The Old Republic so I'm phrone to noticing such things)

(am I the only one who misses Cossette's roomate? She was fun for the three comics she was in... )

Cosette has a roomy ?

And I blame the Allosaurus.

[Dr. ROFLPWN]

I think Padma and Faye just recognized each other as Alpha Baristae; naturally, a deathmatch was in order. Or it's part of Faye's natural mate-protecting routine, but she wasn't expecting the Incendiary Indian there to match her Peachly skills.

(Also, this started playing in my head the minute I saw the fight panels. Which were really well done! Bravo Jeph.)

[iduguphergrave]

You better not let Dora catch you calling Faye the alpha Barista.


Faye's just the alpha-bitch (can't find the comic where Penelope calls Faye that. Sorry.)

[Antario]

Oh, QC has Padme now.

Very Star Wars-y.

(I'm planning to play Star Wars: The Old Republic so I'm phrone to noticing such things)

Yeah and the guys are called obi and anakin, second girl would be.......oh wait.....there is never more then one female character (with more then a minute of screentime) in any star wars trilogie, leia then


And dont mention TOR during weekdays, i try to refrain from obsessing about it till fridays, at least then there is usually some news on the site




ontopic:

The plot thickens, give a barista bitch-off
A competetive event to still the rivalry and bestow the title of best coffeeshop/drama factory in town
If COD loses we get a shift from the main hangout to TSB

This is a lot like when marten challenged angus to a slapfight at the start of their date, a test of resolve and hilarity ensues..

Hmm, could this secret bakery girl be Angus' ex?

I strongly doubt this is angus's ex, just look at him
No strong feeling at all, with the bad breakup and all you'd expect to see something different

[cesariojpn]

Video game release yes please?

[Tetrinity]

Very well done fight scenes, I must say... I'm enjoying this week of comics a lot, it's nice to get back into the full flow of signature QC humour after the past few months.

[SJCrew]

That black chick is all kinds of sexy. I notice the detail in the hair too, as well as the increase in Faye's length (lovin' that too). Jeph put in work on today's comic.

[Delator]

Um............we're taking swings at people in the street for no reason now?

That was basically my reaction...

...and apparently Angus' as well.

[cesariojpn]

(am I the only one who misses Cossette's roomate? She was fun for the three comics she was in... )

Luna, though she describes her as a friend rather than a roommate.

I thought Cossette's roomy was Riker?

[Loki]

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should...

Yes, they do!

For the sake of completing the list, there was also this.

Also, yay for comic. It made me laugh out loud for two minutes straight

[snubnose]

No reason ? NO REASON ?

Its Secret Bakery vs Coffee of Doom !

This IS SERIOUS !
