How did you and Pintsize end up as companions, anyway? You seem so... different.

Gordon the ArachnoPC! "Don't be nervous! There are no wrong answers!"

12 (18.8%)

Okay Mr. Reed, your evaluation is in! (pause) THAT one?! Gordon, are you SURE about this?

0 (0%)

The biometrics look good to me! (please get off my head)

1 (1.6%)

I should probably go over our return procedure. And criminal liability agreement. And insurance policies.

5 (7.8%)

My head please get off it

9 (14.1%)

...Then they brought out Pintsize. I took him home, and the rest is history.

1 (1.6%)

But... but that is all wrong! You were frightened of Gordon! That would have completely thrown off your biometrics!

1 (1.6%)

You mean... You should not have been assigned Pintsize as your companion.

0 (0%)

Well, it worked out all right in the end, so YOU MEAN I COULDA BEEN WITH A HOT CHICK THIS WHOLE TIME?!

I'm happy with him. Even if he IS an ass sometimes.

He does make me look like a better roommate by comparison.

1 (1.6%)

Poll came later, so there.

[idontunderstand]

The comic could go anywhere right now. Exciting times all right.

[Border Reiver]

That would of course be why we keep tuning in every weekday for updates. 

[Method of Madness]

Hopefully more Pintsize.

[PintsizeForPresident]

My prediction: Emily brings Hanners and Marigold home; Em turns out to be a Yaoi fan so they stay up late watching some Magical Love Gentleman. Hanners and Marigold share some pictures of Marten with Emily, who develops a big crush on him.

That didn't quite fit into the poll options, so I chose "How Hannelore got home".

[DSL]

I thought you meant these pictures.

And Gabby wearing Dora's pants? Not a value or aesthetic judgment here, just an observation that G>D along the Y and Z axes.

[PintsizeForPresident]

They'd fit on her head, though.

[Is it cold in here?]

Anyone else have mixed feelings about Pintsize getting some character development? Stagnation is bad, but if there's nothing to replace the weirdness created by the old Pintsize, the strip will be lamentably more vanilla.

[Method of Madness]

This isn't really out of character for Pintsize, at least I don't think so.

[riccostar]

I don't entirely agree, I know I've always felt like there was something more behind the relationship between Marten and Pintsize and its nice to see it verbalized.  I'm sure Pintsize will come up with plenty more ways to create weirdness. 

[WAYF]

I feel that the weirdness created by Pintsize has already been replaced by the weirdness created by Hannelore, Marigold, Emily, Clinton, and when she was around, Padma. Not to mention the weirdness which was essentially created by Hannerdad (sentient space stations, spaceships and all that).

[riccostar]

It looks like the poll might have needed an "other category," I'm changing my bet to pintsize week.

[Method of Madness]

Jeph mentioned that the real Smith doesn't allow trans women to be students, but I should point out that Claire is a grad student.  Their graduate programs are co-ed, or so I've heard, which I guess makes it moot.  Whether or not Smif's undergrad allows trans women is yet to be determined, hopefully Jeph makes it one of the ways the QC-verse is better than our own.

[maxh]

Jeph mentioned that the real Smith doesn't allow trans women to be students

I wonder where he heard that. According to their nondiscrimination policy this is untrue.

[Method of Madness]

Now I can't find that tweet but I could've sworn he said that. Anyway, I'm glad it's not so.

[maxh]

Now I can't find that tweet but I could've sworn he said that. Anyway, I'm glad it's not so.

Admittedly non-discrimination policies don't necessarily reflect practice, so it's possible that they don't accept trans women.

[Method of Madness]

Possibly, but I don't think they would be able to outright say that they were denied for being trans women...not like that really helps.

[MillionDollar Belt Sander]

Shirt continuity failure...    Not sure if we should alert The Jeph or if he'll catch it.

[Near Lurker]

Reading the dialogue before really looking at the panels, I thought for a moment Pintsize was the only discount he could get due to his poor credit, which he expressed in a self-deprecating way.

...this is probably not the right way to read a comic.

[cesium133]

Shirt continuity failure...    Not sure if we should alert The Jeph or if he'll catch it.

That's just to illustrate the power of Pintsize's storytelling abilities.

[cesariojpn]

Real men wear Pink......underwear.

And it's fixed.

Now... speculation.   Martin's rage is over... what exactly?     Pintsize telling such a crude story.... or is he outraged that Pintize is telling the truth?     

[WAYF]

Yep, there's the Pintsize we know and ... er, know.

[riccostar]

yay comic!

I wonder about the anatomy of those chassis...

[Carl-E]

OH GOD WHY WOULD SHE HAVE ARTICULATION SEAMS ON HER BOOBS

...because like most porn, those aren't her original boobs? 


 

[Method of Madness]

Pintsize's face in the final panel 

Real men wear Pink......underwear.

They're really more of a puce...

[Carl-E]

Combine that and rule 34, and you have Pintsize's story! 

[akronnick]

NOT HELPING, PINTSIZE!!!!! 

[TheEvilDog]

....Pintsize's face in the last panel....
It's killed me....its fucking killed me!
 

[cesariojpn]

yay comic!

I believe I recall one strip that mentions AnthroPC's as "sexaroids" to some folks. But I could be wrong.

Also, Momo is one to retch considering what she's thought of in the past.

[mustang6172]

And that's where babies come from... for cyborgs.

[Is it cold in here?]

NOT HELPING, PINTSIZE!!!!! 

Great callback!.

[Sorflakne]

Somehow I knew RealDolls would be referenced or alluded to at some point.

[Bev]

I'm starting to wonder how Marigold afforded Momo in the first place. Her original chasis still looked like a step up from Pintsize and Winslow, and Marigold doesn't exactly look like she's swimming in money. Was this ever explained or should I just assume her parents bought it for her like my friends parents always buy them stuff, like a friggen apartment...

[0kamisama]

NOT HELPING, PINTSIZE!!!!! 

Brings me back to:

"Pintsize! YOU'RE RUINING EVERYTHING!"

[derisyan]

Last panel's face is so adorable. I made a forum account just so I could use it as an avie.

Back to comic discussion. Marigold's dad seems to be well economically, so maybe there it is.

[Toe]

So...

Does Momo have breast articulation seams, too?

[Method of Madness]

Yeah, I thought of making it my avatar too, but I'm happy with British Pintsize.  Tally ho!

I don't know what "breast articulation seams" are.

[derisyan]

I don't know what "breast articulation seams" are.

It's where the rockets are stored:

[ysth]

So my first assumptions are that Marten is telling this story, and the glare is because the nice lady-bot behind the desk turns out to be Pintsize in a borrowed chassis.

But seemingly others are taking it differently.

By the way, http://www.questionablecontent.net/twitter.php seems to be lacking @EmilyAzuma and @cosetteisclumsy; any others?  I'm surprised Claire and Clinton haven't boarded the whale.

[GroovyKinda]

I absolutely love those expressions in the last panel. Pintsize's especially.

I never noticed before, but... That "daydream" looks an awful lot like her current chassis...

[cesariojpn]

Mari said she'd get a loan for a particular model for Momo. She can pay for the new chassis for some "sacrifices."

Momo promises to pay it back. She attempts to find work. Manages to find a job. Gets paid. And fails repaying it back.

[cesariojpn]

So my first assumptions are that Marten is telling this story, and the glare is because the nice lady-bot behind the desk turns out to be Pintsize in a borrowed chassis.

More like, Marten was telling the story in panels 2 & 3, and Pintsize interrupted in 4.

[Pilchard123]

I'm pretty sure there was a cimic where someone gets hit in the face with a flying rocket boob. Whether it was this one, I can't remember.

[Is it cold in here?]

I believe it was not this one, though there has been mention of laser tits.
