>Goddamn I hate hate hate hate this comic
>Can't resist clicking on the new thread to see how bad this issue is
>It's worse than I expect
I can't believe he's so rich off this shit.
>Hey that anon says this comic is REALLY bad
>I want to see how bad it is
>Wow, it's not nearly as bad as they said. Is there more?
And that's how you contribute to it.
No joke, Cinemaphile has bought patreon subscriptions for this comic because of these threads. Not OP, apparently.
As always Jeph is on the cusp of making actually interesting statements but tosses the opportunity aside. How WOULD a robot feel about objectification when their chassis are sold on the open market like cell phone models? If a robot is much more instantiated in their AI core than a human is in their brain, insofar as the rest of the body is freely modular and replaceable, would they still get possessive and defensive of their current body? May bought the model with the biggest breasts because she wanted big breasts, but is that personal expression or a simply a feature of her mode of transport?
Much to ponder.
right? maybe there's something to be said that entering into a relationship supercedes the objectification? because it certainly doesnt go away for real people.
eh, since bubs ex-military (from J's really....shakey grasp of military understanding, for sure) and being super direct, it makes as much sense about having someone's back that this would play out.
he's done far worse.
I think bubbles is super connected to that body. Like, it may have been her original body. So changing it may not be a reasonable option
the universe exists so that THE PERFECT ONE can resolve our issues
whenever THE PERFECT ONE is not resolving our issues, it is because the universe needs our issues to pile up into a state that is more enjoyable for THE PERFECT ONE to resolve
>objectification
Consider: Bubbles is an actual object. Her breasts serve no purpose besides human enjoyment.
WRONG.
Bubbles should tell Faye she was being a self obsessed c**t who needs to get over her own shit and realize that strangers can't be expected to tiptoe around her personal minefield.
>tiptoe around her personal minefield
She said she didn't want a wild drinking party in her apartment because she's a recovering alcoholic. Her guest, who she opened her home to, then told her to get over it.
That's when you grab her shoulder and say, "hey, we just met so you have no way of knowing this, but this has been a real issue for me, and it's upsetting to hear you talk about real flippantly, alright?" Not scream at her out of nowhere and send her out crying into the alley. Faye's behavior is just as shitty and its going to go completely unaddressed
Why do all of that? It’s Faye’s house. She could say no drinking for any reason. No means no and the guest sat there and acted like her rules for her home meant nothing.
For us, Faye coming to terms with being an alcoholic and it nearly destroying her life was years ago. In universe, it was something like 5 months ago. Liz is the very first person shown to not pat Faye's butt about it, so someone already as much of a b***h as her is going to fly off the handle about it.
Personally speaking, those two panels would have been stretched out to a whole week's worth of strips.
>Liz is flippant about drinking
>Faye tries to keep her cool, but is obviously reaching her limit
>Liz starts running her mouth about how alcoholics are "scientifically" weak people and she shouldn't have to be held back by someone else's weakness
>Directly tells Faye that she's not going to bother listening to a blue collar worker's problems; just suck it up
>Liz's attitude plus her obviously thinking that Marten and Claire would have her back just because finally makes Faye lose it
>Liz runs when she realizes that no-one is sticking up for her
you're old, like me. the 6 months statements was made in 2013.
>I want to have a party!
>Just don't do it at my place
>Why?
>I'm a recovering alcoholic
>So don't drink. Not my problem
>Hey, you can drink, just don't do it at my place. Okay?
...instead of blowing the frick up at a complete stranger.
Why would I give a shit about a complete stranger that wants to throw a rager at my house? Tell the c**t to give fricked and party somewhere else.
ngl, if I were around people like this, I'd kick their asses to the curb immediately

So we're speedrunning drama now to be resolved in the same page?
the onions is leaking everywhere from this picture.
Heph couldn't have his readers thinking he did something problematic again without addressing it.
it's even crazier when you think that jeph played the long con and is now getting paid by his young readers who grew up and got actual jobs
It's terrible how he has to pause his comic to address reader feedback. Sloppy, cowardly storytelling.
why be fashionable if you can't handle objectification? you're a fricking robot, go be titless instead

Thank you, jesus.
You are the only reason to enter into QC threads.
Thank you.
This art is most of the reason I come back to these threads so often. Thanks again.
Apparently he's trying to retcon the hand stabbing, telling people it wasn't the bullying that made him have a psychotic episode, down a 1/5 of Jack, and stab himself in the hand. It was something completely unrelated to criticism of the comic, which Jeph is known to be unable to handle because he's a fricking pussy.
>A fifth of jack
Kek sounds like he can’t handle his booze either. Pussy XD
>down a 1/5 of Jack
>A fifth of jack
What the colloquial frick?
>A fifth is a unit of volume formerly used for wine and distilled beverages in the United States, equal to one fifth of a US liquid gallon, or 25+3⁄5 U.S. fluid ounces (757 milliliters); it has been superseded by the metric bottle size of 750 ml, sometimes called a metric fifth, which is the standard capacity of wine bottles worldwide and is approximately 1% smaller.
Jesus. If you put away a full bottle of Jack in one night, you're in miserable shape.
What? No dude I’m in my prime. I bench 450. Again you’re probably just a pussy.
Anyone who drinks 750 mils of whisky in a night is gonna have a pretty short prime.
I'm an ex-twink and I can still punch through just under a fifth of vodka if you give me an entire night. I assume fat people can really pack it down given the chance.
alcohol is a drug and people's response and resistance to drugs varies from person to person
Yes but statistically speaking the habitual abuse of any substance will frick you up in the long run
Did it once. Kept it down too. Not terribly hard honestly. I seem to have a higher tolerance than a lot of my friends who drink more regularly than I do though, and am less prone to bad hangovers. I think it's all about prep though. Be hydrated, mix in some snacks. Once drank a hurricane glass full of cognac John Belushi style, after several drinks immediately before it, then got high, and still managed to set up a tent correctly. Didn't realize it was on a 15 degree slope at the time, but the tent holds its form without stakes so it was easily corrected. The tolerance probably comes from being of Scottish descent, it's all I can figure, that or the prepwork.
>I bench 450.
fellow Cinemaphileizen, good bench, higher than my 400. you must have great musculature, but if you're drinking that much and juicing, your liver's gonna cap out before you hit 60.
Did you really have to include the part of your post where you had to google a common term you didn't know
Call it service for the europoors
>a common term
Maybe in your corner of the world.
so is the next strip going to be marten and godking claire apologizing to liz for throwing a socially inept kid at the landmine couple with the most trauma baggage with little to no warning? or are we still gonna shit on her for understandably not knowing how to be navigate a normal conversation, let alone one filled with so many booby traps
>acknowledging a queer woman did something wrong
never gonna happen in this comic
>booby traps
hehe
>comic is two characters talking with barely anything happening on screen
Holy shit, just write a fricking book instead
After reading this comic over the past couple months now my God I would hate to actually know these people. This whole micro aggression groveling arc is wild
That's not really a micro-aggression, though. Someone she barely knew kept talking about and staring at her breasts and then her girlfriend encouraged it. If LIz and Faye were dudes, that would definitely be a boyfriend allowing some other girl to creepy on his girl, yet high-five him about it. A micro-aggression would be more like Liz only directing answers to Bubbles' questions to Faye; implying that she'd rather hear what the human has to say and not the robot.
Either way, everyone involved is some level of butthole that needs their shit slapped repeatedly
This comic has never had particularly compelling conflicts. He coasted for years with a "will they, won't they" thing with Faye and Marten, but I truly can't remember a time when conflict has involved anything more pressing than this sort of miscommunication bullshit. All the socjus stuff with the robots kind of petered out, never to be brought up again, and even Bubble's whole arc with her memories was really anticlimactic
Incredible how this whole comic started on a will they/won't they that is now 100% "They Won't", and somehow we're still here
