[cesariojpn]

Is it just me, or are the pun jar comments significantly more annoying than the puns themselves?

Punny. Real punny.

[Is it cold in here?]

No, Dale, you have to push the button before you receive the bacon!

Doesn't the social protocol database include some material about how to start a conversation between two other people?

[daryljfontaine]

Momo offered to start cooking almost as soon as she got her current chassis. It's possible that there are healthy food precursors in stock at Marigold's, even assuming she and Angus don't share food shopping.

"I have extracted everything of nutritional value from your food supplies on hand."

*Momo and Marigold stare at a small pile of food dust*

"We are buying you some vegetables."

D

[Is it cold in here?]

Come to think of it, do Dale and Marigold have anything in common besides WoW, which also divides them?

[pwhodges]

This just in!  According to a tweet, tomorrow the secret of Dale's glowing glasses will be revealed.

Or it could be a huge mis-direct, of course.

[K1dmor]

 Their friends.
 Also, they both watch anime according to the poster on Dale's room.

[ZoeB]

Momo is definitely my kind of gal. The kind I wish I'd had for a G/F. Actually... like my partner in some ways.

As for Jerky - I add some biltong into soups sometimes. Good on pizza too, when shredded.

[no one special]

For those who don't already know about it, the BEST alternative to jerky are Tanka Bites. 



I love this stuff.  Main ingredients are just buffalo and cranberries.  Low fat, no MSG, no nitrates - hell, the entire ingredients list only has seven items.

It's really tasty!  Plus, it's big, soft chunks of meat, not all dried out like jerky.  I used to eat jerky - but now it's all about the Tanka Bites.

The other thing I like about this stuff (if you care about this sort of thing) is that it's a Native American company.  They're on the Pine Ridge Reservation, in South Dakota.  Company was founded by/is owned by/all employees are Native American.  Meat comes from Native buffalo farms.  Everything is made and packaged on-site.  No big conglomerates.  I dunno about you, but I really like that kinda thing. 

Anyways, y'all should check it out.  Great alternative to all the other pre-packaged preserved meats.

[KOK]

So Steve eats cereal at night. Isn't that rather unusual?

[Akima]

So... Dale went for an omelette (I think) and sausages, and Marigold for scrambled eggs and bacon... Still not a vegetable in sight.

[TinPenguin]

Baby steps. Tiny baby steps.

http://questionablecontent.net/1623

Reading on from this strip has made me notice something interesting - Dale's first appearance was only ten strips after the Marigold/Angus thing. Not that we should read much into this, since the newspost for the 'no tips for alliance scum' strip (1668) implies that Jephzibah more or less just selected a random character for that gag. But interesting nonetheless.

[hakko504]

But they are eating things that eats vegetables, so that's OK.

[Border Reiver]

Momo, this is momentus - someone is willingly surrendering bacon.

Which along with beer, is proof that the Divine loves us and wants us to be happy.

[Tulpa]

This looks dangerously close to a date.

Most of my dates didn't involve the threat of electrocution though.

They don't? Huh.
Maybe that's where I'm going wrong…?

[J]

i dunno, sounds a bit boring to me

[LordVaughn]

I found this adorable. Then again, I'm suddenly imaging the two of them in middle or elementary school and for some reason, seats were assigned for lunch, forcing the two to talk to each other, since they'd be too far from their friends.

[snubnose]

This just in!  According to a tweet, tomorrow the secret of Dale's glowing glasses will be revealed.

I always assumed Dale is simply wearing mirror glasses, like this: http://fragileeternity.deviantart.com/art/Independence-day-383010867

Its totally possible ! I cant rule it out. Not definitely, anyway.

[Loki]

that arcing looks like it Hertz.

I love the current arc. (pun not intended)

[Thrudd]

I bet it will be a shocking revelation no matter watt.

[Method of Madness]

Well that depends what's in Dale's omelet (although I suppose the vegetable still wouldn't be "in sight")

[ankhtahr]

I'm pretty sure it'll go somewhere along the lines of this.

[Method of Madness]

I see.

[GarandMarine]

It's better than stabbing people over wordplay, like they do in South Asia in the Punjab region.

Knowing that adds a certain amount of spice to Banghra music and acts like Punjabi MC. Talk about critical reviews!

[Merrick]

They're gonna bang so hard.

[Method of Madness]

Careful.

[DrBear]

I guess Momo's electricity was a real pun generator.

/yeah, late, etc.

[Mlle Germain]

So Steve eats cereal at night. Isn't that rather unusual?

Steve might have a similarly messed up sleep schedule as Marigold and eat cereal as a late breakfast. Although until now, Steve seemed to get up rather early in the morning to eat his cereal (Meena episode & after the wedding). Do we know if Steve has a job that permits sleeping whenever he likes? As far as I remember, Steve's way of earning money was never mentioned (apart from the secret agent episode). Is that correct?

I would like Dale to have normal eyes again. I liked him during his first appearances. And also mostly since then, except someone without visible eyes always seems kind of detached and less human somehow. Well, we'll see what happens tomorrow... If anything happens.

[Carl-E]

He's gonna take off his glasses to wipe them, we'll see his eyes as he wipes away the glow, saying "Damned fireflies..."


Which is when we find out that Dale rides a scooter in the early evenings (don't smile!). 

[Thrudd]

Does that mean he speaks like an Australian, only moving his lips but never opening his mouth? (keeps one from eating the flies mate)

[Storel]

So how many arch-nemeses is this now, Jeph?

[Pilchard123]

Just the one, still the same guy.

[Storel]

Really? I thought David Willis had been referred to as a nemesis, too.

[Pilchard123]

Oh yea, maybe...

[Zebediah]

Willis is more like an evil twin, I think.

[Barmymoo]

I've had cereal as my evening meal before (I've had pasta for breakfast too). It makes more sense really. During the day I need lots of energy because I'm running around all over the place and busy. At night, I'm just sleeping. I don't need to eat as much.

[J]

what's wrong with cereal for dinner? sometimes a person just wants the easiest possible thing.

seems to me that at night is when you'd need extra protein & calcium when sleeping so that your body can rebuild it's self from the day's wear & tear.

[Barmymoo]

That makes sense - but there's no reason why you can't have a small meal with those things. The things that people traditionally eat for breakfast make more sense as an evening meal.

[Loki]

I assume you mean North American people.

[GarandMarine]

Indeed, the Japanese breakfast is hard to identify as different from lunch or dinner.

[Romanticide]

I know a couple people (online) why absolutely LOVE chocolate covered jalapeńos. 

Well hot cocoa traditionally used to be made with chili and water instead of milk so it's not that weird XD And spicy candy is kind of an institution in Mexico at least XD XD

Damn Marygold and Dale scenes now have me hungry for jerky and bacon...

[Redball]

And that, of course, would be Marigold. Proper spelling of names of QC characters is important here.

[Kugai]

Henry Kissinger would be proud of Momo.   


How does Steak, Hash Browns, Eggs and Mushrooms sound for breakfast.

Coffee of course.

There's ketchup on the table.  That's the Reagan vegetable!

[Method of Madness]

Jwhouk, I'm tempted to move that post to its own stickied thread. Would you object?

[Overkillengine]

Nice, looks a lot like like pemmican without as much of the refined animal fats added back in. I usually get a some beef & raisin or pork & cranberry jerky strips from a local company called Luther's, but I might have to try some of this out, it's been a while since I last ate buffalo.

[westrim]

They're gonna bang so hard.

Yeah, like Marigold and Sven on the sidewalk! Wait, I already used that pun. Or did I!?

For those who don't already know about it, the BEST alternatives to jerky are Tanka Bites...

You say that like jerky is a brand name with one method of production. Also, I feel like i just read an infomercial.

[ankhtahr]

So. AR glasses. When will somebody explain to him that it would be polite to turn them off when directly interacting with people?

Maybe Momo's social protocol database? Tomorrow?

[Is it cold in here?]

Momo must have known what AR glasses were. It looks like she's trying to get a conversation going. It's benevolent manipulation.
