Since someone asked what I actually liked about QC, and then locked tbe thread, I'll kick it off as a separate thread.
It's mildky amusing and comes out daily at a time of day when I am not usually doing very much, apart from gathering various correspondence, reading the news etc. The cast are a fairly predictable Webcomic crew of losers stuck in the usual rut of service-industry non-jobs, there is the usual over-representation of homosexuality (seriously, who really knows that many gay oeople?) sexualised view of life and living beyond their financial means with no obvious problems.
The last one is a staple of comics, from Dagwood Bumstead to Homer Simpson, of course.
The AI/AnthroPC angle is interesting. Momo is a genuinely original character, an inversion of the "cute robot girl" trope - she IS a "cute robot girl" but doesn't play the role, she IS an "anime character" but tries not to be. May was a good one-shot as a holo but now she's just tedious, with a side-order of political correctness. She COULD have been interesting, as an exploration of the whole "Robot Jail" scenario but I don't know where that went to. She COULD have been an exploration of the whole issue of robots eroding low-paid employment, but another opportunity lost. Pintsize is a one-joke character that has outlasted his time.
Dale and Marigold are interesting. They are outside the whole "hipster" thing and I think I might quite like Dale IRL. Marigold's whole shut-in scenario is familiar to any parent, although the whole "anime porn" thing is overdone, another Webcomic generality it seems.
The USreadership probsbly haven't seen it, or don't understand it if they have, but one if the huge successes of British tv in recent years has been "Gavin and Stacey", a rom-com of sorts about a rather sweet, and quite unremarkable young couple surrounded by a cast of grotesques and eccentrics. It works much better than it sounds, because you genuinely do care about the eponymous central characters and the secondary characters are genuinely funny.... but it knew when it had done the joke, and stopped.
You can see this in GWS, where the couples - Clarice and Joshua, Maureen and Jameson, to some extent Chrus and Melody - are moving steadily away from the central gag of "anti-social selfish loser and her ditzy friend"
