[Kugai]

Another week, another Poll.

[Loki]

There was a grave mistake with the poll. I fix'd it

[DrBear]

Now, is this what I THINK will happen?
(party hijinx)
or what I WANT to happen
(Dora and Tai hot dancing)

Hello, QC information? I'd like the number for fan service, please 

[Kugai]

There was a grave mistake with the poll. I fix'd it

Actually, I nearly added 'Police RAID the party'   

[Loki]

Actually, I at first read "police raid the party"^^

[Kugai]

*Grins*

[Mr_Rose]

Considering Tai is apparently going she probably invited Dora, so I suggest that Marten will spend the entire time Tai and Dora aren't dancing/making out (damn near the same thing if your doin' it right, I know, but…) talking exclusively to one or both of them and miss the point, again.

[ankhtahr]

I'm not sure about her inviting Dora. Tai's going to this party specifically for Marten, she's mentioned not wanting to go originally. But Marten missing the point and talking to her exclusively sounds plausible.

[Zwammy]

Another week, another Poll.

Time for Poll dancing? ...O.K., that was lame, I'll admit.

[jwhouk]

Dora may have had to bow out due to working at the shop.

[94ssd]

I'm pretty sure "Marten can train interns" and "Marten isn't transphobic" are the only pieces of character development for this guy who was once the "main character" since Padma. Maybe this party will have some interesting happenings.

[Method of Madness]

I like Bench Girl. She's all "I HAS A BAG" in panel 1 and then in panel 3 she's all "NO THEY BE STEALIN' MY BAG".

[Carl-E]

Delilah has HAIR. 

Onlly seen Marten high once, I think - at Dora's folks?  I seem to recall Dora getting a contact buzz - did Marten partake? 

That kind of party can be a real drag if it's not your cup of "tea". 

Although he's already the life of the party with just one inspired idea...

[Method of Madness]

Jeph resisted the urge to have Marten say "hey there". Jeph, I am disappoint.

[mustang6172]

Dora jealousy:  activate!

[Method of Madness]

Wait, what does Dora have to be jealous about now?

[jwhouk]

I agree with the boss: "It's gonna be one of THOSE parties."

Delilah looks like she could be the long lost brother of the guy who asked about the CoD Dating Service.

[GarandMarine]

Marten is now part of the tribe.

[Carl-E]

Now, if you could mix the post smoke with helium, no one would ever stop laughing. 

[Method of Madness]

That sounds AWESOME.

[Rghfrgl]

Delilah has HAIR. 

She certainly does.

On her legs.

[FunkyTuba]

Radical prediction:

Delilah's dreadlocks will be gone by the end of the party. The question is whether they will be shaved off or will turn out to have been a wig the whole time

[Near Lurker]

Now I'm thinking of Freddie Mercury's cat.

...which, among a host of other possible pop-music associations, is probably the best.

[Toe]

I like Bench Girl. She's all "I HAS A BAG" in panel 1 and then in panel 3 she's all "NO THEY BE STEALIN' MY BAG".

When the page loaded and I first glanced at panel 1, for a moment I was like "Is she so high that she's ironing her clothes while she's wearing them?" (somewhat related)

Delilah has HAIR. 

She certainly does.

On her legs.

And underarms.

[cesium133]

Now, if you could mix the post smoke with helium, no one would ever stop laughing.

That sounds like the kind of thing that ends in asphyxiation. 

[Platypodes]

I can't recall having ever seen Marten high.  Could be entertaining.

I remember how bewildered I was the first time somebody at a party offered me what appeared to be a plastic bag half-full of plain old air (the product of a Volcano isn't technically smoke and doesn't look like smoke, or look like anything) and said "Want some?"  I think I stared blankly for a moment or two and said, "Want some what?"

Pretty sure Dora's not coming--Tai'd have a hard time being Marten's wing-lady if she were on a date.

[Mordhaus]

Usul, we have hair the likes of which even God has never seen.

[Indicible]

So, seeing flying elephants under the influence of pot in a balloon animal is pretty much a given, right?

[jwhouk]

Purple plaid flying elephants.


And I'm kinda not looking forward to this week. Even though I grew up in the era of Cheech and Chong and excessive drug humor, I never found it appealing nor necessary. (I don't drink, either.)

[cesariojpn]

Now, if you could mix the post smoke with helium, no one would ever stop laughing.

Actually, that combo sent a few people to the hospital to one party that I went to. One became braindead and the family pulled the plug a week after that diagnosis.

I rather not talk further about this.

[Loki]

I am sorry to hear that

I like Delilah.
I think Bench Girl makes a sad impression, like she doesn't even want to be there.
Marten is gonna end up talking to her.

[Lubricus]

I can imagine Faye making every kind of fun at Delilah's expense if Marten hooks up with her. Which is a bit sad, really.

[NilsO]

I think Bench Girl makes a sad impression, like she doesn't even want to be there.
Marten is gonna end up talking to her.

Agreed, Bench Girl looks promising. Jeph wouldn't draw her just as a background character without a purpose . She looks sad, though, like she has been commandeered to do do this job, but would rather be somewhere else.

[hedgie]

I think Bench Girl makes a sad impression, like she doesn't even want to be there.

It probably doesn't help that her bag of high got taken out of her hands just as she finished inflating it.

[Lubricus]

Couldn't she just wrap her lips around the volcano? 

[Akima]

Delilah has HAIR.

Delilah has hair more like Samson. I dred to think what would happen if it were cut.

And isn't a Volcano a bit yuppie?

[Barmymoo]

Delilah has HAIR. 

She certainly does.

On her legs.

Yay! So do I, perhaps we could be friends.

People, don't use helium for cheap laughs at parties. It's a finite resource with a lot of seriously useful uses and when we run out we are fucked.

[hedgie]

And isn't a Volcano a bit yuppie?

Perhaps she's a trustafarian.

[Mlle Germain]

And I'm kinda not looking forward to this week. ... I never found [drug humor] appealing nor necessary. (I don't drink, either.)

Agreed.
But, who knows, maybe Jeph will surprise us with something interesting and creative.

In real life, I would feel so very, very uncomfortable and out of place at that kind of party. Not saying it's a bad kind of party, just not my thing.

[Lubricus]

Jeph tends not to be crass about drugs, so I'm not worried. OK, I am worried, but about Marten's lack of success in his life, not drug issues.

[snubnose]

Now, is this what I THINK will happen?
(party hijinx)
or what I WANT to happen
(Dora and Tai hot dancing)

I went for WANT (and yes, thats the hot dancing).

Actually, I nearly added 'Police RAID the party'   

The band or just the actual police ?

I'm pretty sure "Marten can train interns" and "Marten isn't transphobic" are the only pieces of character development for this guy who was once the "main character" since Padma. Maybe this party will have some interesting happenings.

And Raven hasnt been seen in ... ?

Wait, what does Dora have to be jealous about now?

Party !

[Lubricus]

I wouldn't mind seeing Padma at the party...

[NilsO]

Delilah has HAIR. 

She certainly does.

On her legs.

Interesting, but perhaps a bit exaggerated? Or are some girls really that hairy? If she is into the "natural look", wouldn't she also have armpit and facial hair? (She might have armpit hair, there is a slight shadow underneath her arm.)

I cannot recall if bare feet have occurred earlier in the series, perhaps Jeph is learning to draw them? Delilah's feet are not particularly pretty (even without hair), and Bench Girl's feet, while better, are not perfect either IMHO.

[bhtooefr]

People, don't use helium for cheap laughs at parties. It's a finite resource with a lot of seriously useful uses and when we run out we are fucked.

It actually is possible to manufacture helium, although currently it's extremely expensive relative to extracting existing helium.

[jwhouk]

I wouldn't mind seeing Padma at the party...

Not likely, since Jeph has her back in Cali.

[Lubricus]

He might surprise us. But I doubt he'll bring her back. He doesn't seem to do that.

[Lubricus]

It's not exaggerated at all. I know women who are quite a bit more hairy than Delilah is.

[Barmymoo]

Delilah has HAIR. 

She certainly does.

On her legs.

Interesting, but perhaps a bit exaggerated? Or are some girls really that hairy? If she is into the "natural look", wouldn't she also have armpit and facial hair? (She might have armpit hair, there is a slight shadow underneath her arm.)

Numerically I have far more hairs than that on my legs. I've not actually done a survey but I'm pretty sure that I have the same number of hairs as a man would, but possibly they're finer and in my case less visible due to colour (I have blonde hair, so my leg hair is almost translucent). Jeph hasn't, to my knowledge, ever drawn leg hair before so it's understandable that he's not yet perfected making it photo-realistic (which wouldn't suit his style anyway).

She would only have facial hair if, you know, she had facial hair. The reason that most women don't have beards and moustaches isn't that they spend as much time shaving their faces as they do shaving their legs, it's because they just don't grow hair on their face.

I think she does have armpit hair, but even if she didn't, what makes you think that she's got leg hair because she's into some specific look? I have leg hair because I can't be bothered to shave them, but I shave under my arms because it's itchy otherwise.

[pwhodges]

And Raven hasnt been seen in ... ?

Most recent mention, I think:

Three months ago our time, so probably less than that comic time.

Nuclear fusion, or what are you referring to?
