Yeah if Jeph set up a small thing where you could set up your own color cycle and have it switch, i would probably spend days on it.

No, it's the eyes, too.

...dude, you're right, I didn't even notice until you pointed it out.  And here I thought that other quote was setup for a pervy joke.

And only after reading the comments did I realize that panel 3 was Momo thinking "Holy mackeral, I actually DO have a belly button! I never noticed that before!"
I thought it was more a look of surprise as a never-before realization came to her -  "...wait a minute!  There's no useful reason I should have a belly button.  DO i have a belly button?  I have no idea!"

Definitely the way I took it.

Everything points to it being under voluntary control. If you'd had that much trouble finding a job in the first place, you'd probably consider it a last resort to taser a coworker.

Though an argument could be made for Emily is harassing her and that Momo is defending herself...with a shoe blasting taser blast...

Never said it was a good argument.  :-P

Once Momo has emphatically said "Stop it" and Emily continued, it's a pretty good argument.

Given what we've seen of Emily, it would probably take a megawatt blast to make her even pay attention, and even then she'd probably go back to "booping" Momo's belly button.

Hannerdad believes it's possible for a person to be a "secret robot".

He's crazy, we know, but what if there are AnthroPCs impersonating humans?

They'd misunderstand common situations, break implicit social rules, and be interested in unexpected things.

Like banana smoothies, for example. Is Emily a secret robot?

Of course not, but it could be entertaining speculation.

Completely irrelevant, and I know it's been mentioned before and even noted by Jeph, but Emily's sporting quite an overbite in this strip.

Also, does her face in panel 6 terrify anyone else?

From a purely artistic POV, but in some panels, Momo looks to be underage. Maybe it's just because Emily is a big girl and the scale is all fuxxorz.

Momo's chassis doesn't have much, um... build to it. If her appearance could be compared to a human of same size and build, I'd guess to say a tallish 15-year-old or so.

Actually, IIRC, she was shown to be the same size and similar build as Samantha, who is 13.
