Since the boss is already working on the new comic, I get to do an Olympic-themed poll!

[jwhouk]

Only thing I don't like about Tapatalk is the inability to see or vote on polls.

[cesariojpn]

And I Will Kiss....

Still pissed Doctor Who and Monty Python never got proper respect in the Olympic Opening. All we got was a brief TARDIS F/X and Basil Fawlty. THATS IT!!

Poll support is planned, but no timescale has been given.

Perhaps there's still time for an "Upper Class Twit of the Year" event.

[jwhouk]

I see we're already in the Olympic Spirit:

The QC Olympics! What would YOU watch?

Marten in the 100 meter Mope Walk    1 (4.2%)
Faye in the Sass Foil    3 (12.5%)
Dora in the Women's 48 kg Verbal Judo    1 (4.2%)
Hannelore in the 10kg Clean and Disinfect    3 (12.5%)
Marigold in the Women's Combined WOW Frag-and-Raid    2 (8.3%)
Tai in the Drunken Undressage    6 (25%)
The Interns in the 3x100 Book Return Relay!    1 (4.2%)
Angus in the Men's 10k Neurotic Girlfriend Run!    1 (4.2%)
Competitive Spathe Ham and Waffle Eating Biathlon!    3 (12.5%)

Well, the Silly Olympiad is held every 3.7 years, so it doesn't coincide. I've been in training for the "100 yards for people with no sense of direction" event.

[DSL]

Who's with me in the Shot Put Catching Relay?

[jwhouk]

I might need to add an event: "Mountain Lion Installation (without a net)"

[cesium133]

I might need to add an event: "Mountain Lion Installation (without a net)"

So the player who doesn't get mauled wins the gold metal?

[celticgeek]

Program for the "Mountain Lion Installation (without a net)" event.

Mountain Lion

[cesium133]

The Zero-G Hurlathon?

[Tova]

Actually, the person who is mauled first wins the gold medal.

The training is quite similar to the being eaten by a crocodile event.

Edit: Hmmm I think there are some transcription errors in there.... (this also gives me a chance to quote one of my favourite bits).

Loothesom: Gavin, does it ever worry you that you're actually going to be chewed up by a bloody great crocodile?
Morolowe: The only thing that worries me, Jim, is being the first one down that gullet.

[Sorflakne]

Excellent reply to such a silly question, Emily.

[Near Lurker]

...should they really be having this conversation in front of the interns?

[jmucchiello]

...should they really be having this conversation in front of the interns?

Am I to presume this means Faye made another smashed banana smoothie for Emily? While tape gagged?

[jwhouk]

...should they really be having this conversation in front of the interns?

Gee, you think maybe it might accidentally slip from, say, Emily's mouth about Dora?

Or about Marten talking to Dora about Tai?

Nah. What do you think this is, a situation-comedy or something? 

Am I to presume this means Faye made another smashed banana smoothie for Emily?

I believe so.

[FunkyTuba]

Still chuckling at "Undressage"

[cesariojpn]

...should they really be having this conversation in front of the interns?

I dunno, did Emily hear enough of the conversation to possibly ruin it for Tai?

Also, whats with the front page? Many of the side links are blacked out.

[Near Lurker]

Okay, this new scheme?  Ew.

EDIT: I should point out that when I wrote this, the background was the same hot pink as the title.  I don't especially mind it now, with the greyish-purple background that I can't find a name for, since there's nothing especially close in X11 (or remotely close on the CGA).

EDIT2: ...and when I made that edit, it was an indescribable purplish-grey (#623c4d) rather than the more standard aubergine it is now.  I could still get used to this, although I think I liked that one better.

[cesium133]

This new color scheme reminds me of the Slashdot April Fools color scheme from a few years back.

[Near Lurker]

Oh, 2006 - the before days.

As in "I was twee before it was cool."

[Kugai]

Don't believe her Marten


Her REAL backup plan is to get Tai drunk and set her up with Hannelore.

[pwhodges]

I am not planning to change the theme here to match...

[snubnose]

OMG pink everywhere and its not even Valentines Day !

[calmcalamity]

While it doesn't really bother me too much once i got over the shock of the scheme change, frankly I prefer the old blue background. I still find this new aubergine-like background, black borders and bright pink larger letters scheme a bit two distracting. The blue and grey with smaller dull orange letters allowed the eyes to clearly concentrate on the comic and in general i liked it's simplicity, mind you this new one is also comparatively minimalist in nature versus some other webcomics.

[Vurogj]

I just have one slight problem with the new design. Links I've clicked are a darker shade now, opposed to the old orange, where it was the UNclicked links that were darker. I expect I'll get used to the switch soon enough though.

[idontunderstand]

I like the new design! The logo looks so-so to my eyes though. I couldn't tell if the design is changed or just the color but I simply think it just doesn't look very appealing.

[techkid]

It's different, I'll grant you that. The burgundy sides do look pretty good, but they should re-colour the links so that they stand out more. The logo? Nah, I don't think it suits the feel of the site.

I am not planning to change the theme here to match...

Thank effing goodness for that!

...should they really be having this conversation in front of the interns?

I dunno about Emily being the one to let the news slip. Claire might also be a good contender, I think.

[DSL]

Eh, what's the worst that can happen?

... ask Marten. He's got it worked out.

[Dr. ROFLPWN]

Omf gromf homf

Who is "Hannelore" ? The female version of Lore, the brother of Data, from Star Trek: The Next Generation ?

[Welu]

I'm not a fan of pink but I saw on Twitter he was planning on changing the site so it wasn't as jarring as it could have been. I'm happy with it. The comic is still the main focus so I'm happy enough. I like the sides. The only thing is the blocky logo doesn't quite suit the site to me but that's just nit-picking.

I really like Claire's hair in this comic. I also like the composition and posing of the characters in the last panel. It's those little angle changes that really make me like this comic.

[Black Sword]

I am not planning to change the theme here to match...

You have my undying gratitude, sir.

[jwhouk]

The blocky logo is a throwback to one of the original ones for the site, is it not?

Techkid:

(click to show/hide)

I'll see that bet and raise you a banana smoothie.

[Vilengel]

I like the new design. I actually noticed it after I had read today's comic...

And I can't handle it if Dora and Tai are going to be all awkward about this whole thing. Once again, Jeph has the power to make his fans yell "why". In the meantime, omf gromf homf.

[Akima]

I dunno about Emily being the one to let the news slip. Claire might also be a good contender, I think.

Claire is too traumatized by watching Emily eat her banana not-so-smoothie to have picked it up.

[sitnspin]

Emily has become my new favorite character. It used to be a tie between Dora and Tai, but not anymore. Emily has ensnared my affections with her adorable quirkiness and obvious delight in life.

[Method of Madness]

Weird how fast I got used to the new site design. I prefer the old one, but...eh.  Yeah, Emily seems ok I guess, but her last couple appearances seem a bit quirk for the sake of quirk...if that makes any sense.  That aside, I like the "omf gromf homf".

[Carl-E]

So....

A gagged, curvaceous woman smashing bananas with a hammer. 




Rule 34 comes to mind, but I'm not even gonna look.

Didn't Jeph have a guest artist send a picture of Faye's squishing technique that was put up on  Tumblr?   

[Is it cold in here?]

Faye could start a companion website to sexyfruitstompingvixens.com.

[idontunderstand]

As long as I get a safe word I'm in.

[jmucchiello]

You're gagged. It's a safe gesture. Or a ball you can drop.


Ahem... Not that I know a lot about such things....

Oh, and, the site colors changed? Missed it.

[Schmorgluck]

Claire: How do you even eat that?
Emily: With my mouth!

Kudos to Emily, speaking like a true computer scientist!

Hannelore in the 10 kilogram clean-and-disinfect? What is she cleaning 10 kilograms of?

[Is it cold in here?]

Padma had "tact issues", but Emily comes across as being out in Luna Lovegood territory.

It's fun. I like it.

Exactly.  I was a bit unsure of Emily because I was afraid she was going to be too much like Padma, but she's really growing on me. XD
