...So am I the only one who thought this was kinda hot?

Right: too creepy, I know. Leaving now.  :police:


You thought what was hot? Buying Momo a new chassis? Momo's new look?

poor Pintsize...

i mean, he's got bonked just for _trying_ to look under Momo's skirt. now that she's five times his height, even addressing her from the floor will be a challenge, what with that short thing she uses for skirt now. i suppose the temptation will be too much for the little pervy 'bot. and the bonking will continue...

why does she look so human? jeph should at least add the arm joints like the other robots.

Maybe that's why the chassis was nosebleed-inducingly expensive. Better covering, so to speak.
My guess is that the more high-end models have some sort of flexible skin-like rubber covering over the joints.

I personally am hoping to see Momo's fantasy at least play out, and am hoping for at least an experimental relationship between her and Sven. Will they... or will Jeph decide against it, launch the torpedos and sink this ship?

don't know why she's waited till now to take her revenge. she could have zapped him when he tried to look up her skirt.

or given him a face full of eel.


ok, that one might be counterproductive with pintsize.




of course, being able to do things like that suggests her old chassis probably wasn't cheap either, so i do wonder what advanced features she has now.

What's weird is that in the fantasy she looked sort of like she does now, except maybe a bit more glammed up.

That's not really so weird - it shouldn't be too surprising that when she has the choice of the whole store, she picks a body that looks reasonably like what she's always wanted.

Jeph stepping it up with the GIFs - four frames now! Also, looks like he's done something to minimise the difference between browsers - where Hannelore's twitching leg was Tool-like in Firefox and like a slow metronome in IE/iOS, this strip I've found to be more consistent across platforms.
IE limits the number of GIF frames shown per second; the twitching lag was beyond that limit, while todays punching wasn't.

Anyways: As someone else already pointed out: Momo should at least be A BIT distinguishable from a normal human character.
Also happy beating.

I'm amazed though they managed to write "Zarathustra" correctly but butchered the much simpler "sprach".

She is - just in (somewhat) subtle ways. She doesn't have noticeable lips like the human female characters do (I noticed that with the other "female" anthroPCs at the store too). She's still very short; more so than Marigold, one of the shortest people in the comic, and her ears are different from human ears. And then there's the whole having bright pink anime hair deal, though admittedly you don't have to be a robot to have pink hair.

I was using the English translation.  It has  been around for over 100 years, and retaining the original language wasn't usually done back then.

A Faye-toss might be poetic justice (betcha Momo's strong enough) and might even get her some respect from Pintsize.
But I think I'm not alone in wanting to see how Hanners and Winslow react to this.
Hey, isn't Winslow due for an upgrade to maybe an iPad? He's earned it.

Winslow can download himself back into the robo-boyfriend and we'll get Momo/Winslow.

Sure. She's a complete bitch. As much as people say she's changed, she hasn't...and fans of the comic, as well as the other characters, cut her way too much slack. She's horrendous. Among the things she's done...be mean to Raven, Penelope, treat Marten like crap, indirectly broken up a relationship, hurt Mari (indirectly), called Hanners crazy, and done a lot of other things I don't even want to bother to think about. I know she's not going anywhere, unfortunately...I hate her. Hate her hate her hate her.

People here have tried to tell me how I should feel, but I don't really care. I hate Faye, she's a complete bitch!

Yes, we know Momo fantasized about Sven, though that was supposed to be a joke. We have every reason to believe Sven is not into robots. The comments are making me more and more uncomfortable. The anti-shipping rule is still there.

Unfortunately, this would most likely add to the cost of printing the book, which would then add to the final price of it. Which would then mean fewer copies of said book being sold. So a hologram would probably not be a good idea.

It would be the same problem if they were both human. One way to look at it is that they're Jeph's characters and we shouldn't be trying to put them in bed together if it's not true to the characters.

I call bullshit on that one as well, same as the "hurt Mari indirectly"... When you write the word "indirectly" it just takes away your point. Because... yes, it was indirect so it could have been done by any normal person.
I think she was kind of a bitch during a great part of the comic but (this might be just me) I also think it's so silly to use the word "hate".

Oh man, I'm 666 pure friggin evil, I should probably stay like this for a day or two just to look cool

I know I should disapprove of Momo's Roaring Rampage Of Robo-Revenge, but Pintsize so deserves it. I suppose it's a bit too one-sided for Battle Without Honor Or Humanity  to be playing in the background...
Not enough Tarantino in the strip for that song.


Ah, today can be summed up in the ancient proverb: "Revenge is a dish best served cold." Except today we learn that the cold part can also mean the cold metal fist delivering the revenge. Methinks Momo's going to use up those 5 minutes fast and Pintsize will be one blow away from getting his cranium caved in. Again.

I would think Jeph couldn't care less, as they're his characters and what we say doesn't matter to him in the slightest. If someone wants to have a bit of fun and imagine characters together, what's the harm in that?

Whether or not Faye's misdeeds are true or not is highly subjective, and also something that I'm not really interested in discussing. Does nobody remember that Mari's heart was broken by Angus, and Faye hooked up with him right after? I realize that Faye and Mari weren't friends and Faye didn't owe Mari anything, but talk about skanktastic. Not to mention how Fake, excuse me, Faye, tried to be all buddy buddy with the girl whose man she stole. Yes, I know Mari and Angus weren't really together, but Mari's feelings are something everyone seems all too quick to ignore. Yes, Angus was a douchebag too, but Faye already has a laundry list of wrongdoings that this just adds to.

Faye has her flaws, but I really don't hate her. If only I were more enlightened, I could hate more.

Aaaaand this is why I am never particularly eager to discuss my hatred of Faye. Smart ass comments and people generally thinking everything except that maybe she really is a hateful character, as she was written to be.

I do happen to think Marigold is unbelievably forgiving. I wouldn't even give that bitch a glance if she did that to me.

To be fair, your earlier comment stated that recognising how "disgusting" Faye is would require either a woman or an incredibly enlightened man. Point being, you imply that disagreeing with you, IE not hating Faye, is a sign of a male being unenlightened.

Don't see why anyone would respond to "anyone who disagrees with me on this is a lesser intellectual being" with smart assery.  :roll:

Did what to you? Start dating the man that had been pursuing her on and off for the better part of a year (when not dating a third woman, so far unidentified) and completely ignoring your non-existent advances?
Why isn't Mystery Woman a hateful bitch then too?

Man, that fourth panel is hilarious, Start up farty noises. Lol. When was this? Was there a comic where this happened??

Oh and, the whole high cost of the Chassis has me worried she'll be in this outfit awhile, especially considering they didn't get anything while still at the mall. It's not that I don't like those clothes, it's... No wait, that is it. She needs better clothes.

Actually, Angus was quite a bugger until Faye simply gave in.

Also, somebody clearly forgot to teach me about those bro/sis-waiting-rules for relationships. What good would it do to me if people waited X weeks before hooking up with a guy that wasn't interested in me anyway?

I would say kissing is pretty far from non-existent. If Angus had a brain that worked, he might realize that a shyer girl is actually worth it in the end. He never gave a reason (to my satisfaction) for rejecting Mari. So I've decided it's because he's just an asshole.

I will never get over how he was like "we're just friends" because HE decided that was how it was going to be. Mari didn't have a say in it in the slightest...and Angus didn't even want to consider being with her. It made me sick!
