And here we are, on the down-side to strip 2300.

[Carl-E]

Been gone without access for a week, it's been a long time since I had that big a dose of QC in one shot! 


....aaand still giggling.  It was a good week! 

[Border Reiver]

Time to start the count-down.

[Boxilar]

Fasten you seat belts and please keep your hands and arms inside the vehicle.

So what manner of shenanigans will Pintsize get up to this week?

Sexual harassment lawsuit?

[celticgeek]

Ah, yes.  Tai in a dress.  And Dora in her gothiest.  What fun. 

[Sorflakne]

Yay, Goth Dora 

[Renewman]

Despite me not really liking this current pairing, I have to say that Dora is looking absolutely delicious. Would have gone with a black skirt though. In Tai's case? She must have gotten dressed in the dark because that dress is hideous. It looks like a cross between a long john top and some art student's quilt project. *barf*

[Near Lurker]

Dora looks fuckin' awesome.  Been too long since her goth phase.

Not sure what Tai was thinking with any dress, let alone that one.  It looks like she got it from a costume shop.

[Soulsynger]

Not sure what it is but to my eyes Dora looks ridiculous.
High boots with overknees and miniskirt? Diagonally cut top? It looks like four things bought from five stores and put together using a random number generator in the dark while drunk. oO

It. Just. Looks... trampy. *duck and run*

[Kugai]

Dora going back to her Goth Girl roots and Tai channeling Nagisa from Strawberry Panic

[Tova]

They both just look like they are trying a bit too hard to please each other. Trap for young players.

Still amusingly cute, though.

[Method of Madness]

I'm just curious where they're going where both of those things are considered appropriate outfits for the occasion.

I know there should be innumerable humorous ideas going through my head right now... but I got nothin' and that makes me sad.

... Walmart?

[Tova]

There's a bar where silly outfits are considered very appropriate, especially for defusing any awkwardness they may now be feeling...

As for where they planned to go, though... who knows. Maybe they hadn't planned anything specific yet, and so had different places in mind.

Wait... that's not even a miniskirt, it's a pair of cutoff shorts 

I'm kinda on the 'my god, what are either of them wearing' side of things.

[Vurogj]

It takes a brave (and good) artist to willingly draw two of his characters in such awful clothes, and not have it look like an off day artwise. *tips hat*

[Is it cold in here?]

Good lord. You used "defuse" correctly. You didn't say "diffuse". You are the only person left in the world who gets this right.  I swoon. Let me bear your children.

Dora has asked Mieville for fashion advice: maybe this time she listened and that's why the results were so bad.

[Kugai]

My guess is they're just beginning to feel their way around with each other.  After all, Dora hasn't been in this kind of relationship in a while and she still (I think) has some hangover issues after the end of her relationship with Marten - along with her other issues and Tai is, I think, beginning to realise that this relationship is totally different than her previous ones and that Dora is a totally different class of lady than the others she has been with.  I think it's kinda cute actually.

[Akima]

I'm kinda on the 'my god, what are either of them wearing' side of things.

Me too. Why would Tai especially even have a dress like that? Did her growth stop at thirteen or something? Hilariously bad! 

[cesariojpn]

And have another wardrobe malfunction with that slip perhaps?

Goth Club? Tai's outfit could be loose variation of Sweet Lolita.

Maybe she borrowed it from Hannelore.

[Omega Entity]

But see, Hanners's dress is at least moderately fashionable - it's a light summer dress, and really, the design isn't bad at all, and is something that really doesn't go out of style. Tai's, on the other hand... that's something in a cut and color that I wouldn't be surprised to see my 84-year-old grandmother wear.

[pwhodges]

:creepy bear-hat poster.jpg:

Edit: Was that thread deleted? Huh.

I redid those threads nearly a year ago.  But I can remind you of the bear-hat guy:



As was said before: don't be that guy.  Note that the person who drew it got banned himself not long after!

[cesariojpn]

Great, thanks for reminding me what one of my Grandma's wore to her grave.

[Mr. Doctor]

You can NOT compare Tai's excuse of a dress with Hanner's. That's just plain wrong.

Note that the person who drew it got banned himself not long after!

Not because of the drawning I hope... Because I did not only find it hilarious but it did make a good point in showing what NOT to do.

[TinPenguin]

Hey, Tai and Dora have wrapped fabric around their bodies. But it is the wrong kind of fabric! This offends me.

Polyester is the devil!!

[Soulsynger]

It's just a story-telling device to get them both out of their hideous clothes sooner. Much sooner.

[ ... ]

Right, it is. My bad. Still looks silly. It's cut off too short for those overknees... or whatever. Very un-aesthetic. °O

[pwhodges]

Not because of that.  Details have not been publicised for good reasons.

[VonKleist]

hehe, I´d seen that drawing before but it never fails to make me at least chuckle


As for the fashion advice I´d like to dish out sitting in front of the computer, clad in boxers... nevermind.

[idontunderstand]

Dora's hair is ridiculous. They both look like they're kids dressed up for halloween, too. This can only become better from now.

[techkid]

Well, at least they can safely say that things really started off... memorable.

But yeah. Tai. That dress, not cool. Not at all.

[DSL]

Looks like Dora didn't Goodwill all her goth stuff, and Tai made a quick run to a thrift shop.

The Gift of the Magi, QC edition. And I love it.

[Border Reiver]

Agreed.

You know it's a poor fashion choice when the 40+ year old army guy is going - "who the hell thought this was a good fashion choice?"

[Welu]

For some reason I think if Dora was wearing heeled boots, her outfit would work a lot better. Tai's dress just looks wrong for her to me. It might work on another person. Outfit swap, maybe? 

Although I know bugger all about fashion. I just thought they were "trying too hard" as someone said so I got the fun without the complete, "The hell they wearing?" feeling.

[LordVaughn]

Normally, i am not very sassy when it comes to clothing choice,  but...
Tai needs not only a refund, but a lawsuit for wherever she bought that horrid puce dress from. I mean jeez, that has to be the most unsettling outfit i have seen in this comic. The only time i think a dress like that would be appropriate is if you had oppressive parents/grandparents visiting.  It might look better in a different color, but that one is, just unsettling and horridly date-innappropriate.

Veering away from the fascion debate, I notice that we at last have some proof that the house party was indeed at Tai's place. I wonder if Dora was reminded of the last time she approached that veranda.

[Abyssalin]

Yes im glad we established where the house party was held, on another note, is this a possible return of the "Goth" Dora that was mentioned so many times when the comic first started? Who knows, All we need now is raven back to complete it.

[Toe]

Am I the only one who saw the title and immediately thought of Winnebago Man?

[El_Flesh]

WOW Dora is flipping HOT!
And she never did that for Martin. Loser.

"No, I'm just drawn that way...."

[lepetitfromage]

I have to agree that they both look like they're trying too hard, but I think things could have worked if they made minor changes-

Dora: take off the tights and add a sleeve.
Tai- shorten the hem and unbutton a few buttons. A different color wouldn't hurt either.


Granted, Tai definitely looks the most out of character. Makes me wonder what reasoning she had for getting extra girlied up if obviously Dora is into her when she's wearing plaid and cutoffs. IMO, we're used to a little bit of gothi-ness from Dora, she just ODed a bit today.

[TheEvilDog]

The police have been informed of the discovery of a body near the Coffee of Doom. The body was believed to be a local goth, although it is uncertain because their clothes were stolen. The cops have said they'll investigate as soon as they finish the slab of beer in the backseat.

[ink slinger]

Dora left her goth phase behind her long ago, so it seems a bit bizarre to me that she'd get all gothed up for her date with Tai. Did Tai even know her when she was still Spooky Pants?

I'm in agreeance with the idea that they're both trying too hard, but I don't understand the choice of clothes that either of them has made.

[Abyssalin]

Y'know i dunno what Jeph's intention was but Tai had to at least be kidding with what she was wearing, unless she wanted to hammer it home dora was going out with a girl.

[lepetitfromage]

Maybe the logic was that Dora has not-so-good luck with the gentlemen, so Tai wanted to girl it up as much as possible?

*grasps at straws*

....either way, I'm glad they both saw the silliness in what they were doing.
