the comic before this one should have been 5516
alphanor
2025-03-02 22:21:30 +0000 UTCThe last comic was mis numbered
Not that Patrick Foltz
2025-03-02 15:04:13 +0000 UTCJust noticed this one is numbered 5517 when the previous was 5515.
Benjamin Leingang
2025-03-02 05:43:09 +0000 UTCAnh should be careful, as “The day of our invasion shall be known as... bidet” (Naga Royal Guard, Warcraft III The Frozen Throne)

2025-03-01 19:49:46 +0000 UTCAnd Anh is the wealth management specialist that Faye didn’t know she’ll need.

2025-03-01 14:38:04 +0000 UTCAh. Faye and bidets. It’s been proposed before: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4971
legobil
2025-03-01 09:19:02 +0000 UTCThere was also an earlier arc or discussion in CoD during Marten/Claires initial trip to Cubetown (Faye being depressed about the soon to be move) about sanitation units for robots, I think bidets was in that discussion too.

2025-03-01 03:29:09 +0000 UTCSorry to say but the creator of Too Much Information died last year and the comic site is not there anymore. RIP Andy.

2025-03-01 03:28:26 +0000 UTCIt was a short lived anime side project that Sam ad Emmet watched but didn't really like.

2025-03-01 02:57:26 +0000 UTCYou bet. It crossed over to here along with butts disease.

2025-03-01 02:44:48 +0000 UTCI swear I saw every season of The Venture Bros. but I don't remember those two characters.

BookBeard
2025-02-28 22:31:03 +0000 UTCOne more observation: Anh's body language through these strips is so well done. Watch those shoulders square up every time she summons her Snob Armour.* *Fancy spelling intentional. Her Snob Armour is bespoke.
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 21:03:45 +0000 UTChttps://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5416 Prediction: somewhere around Strip#7000, she will realize that Sven actually IS her soulmate.
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 20:20:04 +0000 UTCAnh probably has little experience with sincerity, but Hanners' sincerity is a particularly powerful variety. It's like deciding to start drinking and immediately reaching for a tank of jet fuel. Anh never stood a chance.
BookBeard
2025-02-28 19:38:10 +0000 UTCYet another observation: The stray lock of hair that is still there, despite her attempt to armor back up with her perfect bun, is a lovely cartooning shorthand for where she is in her journey.
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 19:35:07 +0000 UTCOh yeah. And bidets are funny because butts. <3
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 19:32:01 +0000 UTCMore thoughts on Anh and her situation: (since I devolved the previous thread into wordplay) For her entire life, Anh has been rich and beautiful. From her drunken comments, she's been raised to believe that being rich and beautiful was all that mattered. Until Hannelore, she had never met anyone who was rich, beautiful and genuinely good. Since she has relied on sex as validation of her worth, she fixated on Hanners as an object of desire out of reflex. Her follow-up conversation was full of her trying to realign everything to some scenario in which everyone wanted to "rail" her. That didn't work. Her earlier condescension didn't work. Hanners' sincerity BROKE her. https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5429 (BTW: the flying hairpins in the last panel are brilliant cartooning.) Her reflex was to redefine herself as Rich, Beautiful, and Bisexual so she could re-establish her projection of superiority. Coming to Faye is her mostly subconscious attempt to learn to be a complete person with a sense of self-worth. In these strips, she keeps reflexively being condescending because that has been her entire personality until the wedding. Look at her face in this episode. In all but the fifth panel, she is being a genuine person instead of an intimidating pillar of superiority. (The hesitant smile in panel 4 is heartbreaking) Since all of our original main characters have pretty much gotten their shit together, we're now getting a bunch of new characters who haven't. Besides Anh, we now have Ayo, Liz, Moray, and the entire population of Cubetown to be hilarious and yet heartfelt messes.
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 19:20:52 +0000 UTCOMG now I follow and of course Pintsize would know 😓 Edit: we don’t kinkshame in this kitchen though 😅
Corvus Cardia
2025-02-28 18:59:36 +0000 UTCSeems that's a bidet for AIs. Not an actual AI that is a bidet. I was horrified at the idea of being an AI that is a bidet. :O (i'm sure pintsize already knows a few.)

Doc Gumby
2025-02-28 17:32:32 +0000 UTCI was not aware of that thing. Now I must begin reading that thing. :)
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 17:02:58 +0000 UTCI hope she survives getting Bubblesed. (Bubbled? Bubblesated?)
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 17:00:30 +0000 UTCAnd when we say “hiding in the air ducts”, we must recall that the ventilation system environmental controls were built with far, far too much spare processing power. (Bloody Moore’s Law.) In fact, Yay now *is* the air ducts…
Philip Masters
2025-02-28 16:24:24 +0000 UTCMy friend the Professional Philosopher suggests "missophontry"
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 16:19:02 +0000 UTCSee *Spacetrawler*. The potty-bot encountered there is quite dedicated to its function in the universe.
Philip Masters
2025-02-28 16:17:36 +0000 UTCMisontopy would be a dislike of everything that exists, potentially including inanimate objects. I don’t think even Iris goes that far. “Sentience” is simply possessing senses, eighty years of misuse in science fiction notwithstanding. Iris appears to disdain all intelligent, self-aware life, and the word for that might be something like “missapienthropy”. Or just “miseryguts”.
Philip Masters
2025-02-28 16:15:46 +0000 UTCScene of a famous murder is still advertising... it could turn out for the best.
Raymond Dannelly
2025-02-28 15:51:56 +0000 UTCI think maybe misontopy. "Onto" as in ontology.
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 15:40:09 +0000 UTCMissentience?
Stephen Wells
2025-02-28 15:00:49 +0000 UTCSpeaking of Iris: we need a word that expands "misanthropy" to be more inclusive and include AIs. (MisAnthroPC heh)
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 14:47:36 +0000 UTCI hope she survives getting Irised.
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 14:36:29 +0000 UTCAt the wedding party, Faye was brutally honest and brutally kind (as only Faye could be) at the point Anh's self-image was turned completely cattywhompus. Of course she's impressed upon Faye like a baby duck. Hannelored, then Fayed. What a devastating double-whammy. Twenty-some years of complete self-absorption and privilege won't be cured in an instant, but she's taken a step to try to become a better person.
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 14:24:57 +0000 UTCEveryone thought that the Human Bidet was the worst superhero concept, but who's laughing now?
Halloween Jack
2025-02-28 14:21:42 +0000 UTCThose two. Absolute brilliance. "Idle roomer" is the best line in the bit. And it's a throwaway!
Stewart MacWilliam
2025-02-28 14:07:19 +0000 UTCFeel sorry for those people actually named after a day of the week. People keep blaming Monday for things, keep joking about hump day to Wednesday, and Friday is just way too popular.
Miyaa
2025-02-28 13:47:16 +0000 UTCOh Anh, you'll never get it right, cause when you're laying in bed at night, watching roaches climb the wall, if you called your dad he could stop it all...
Sam Trenery
2025-02-28 13:46:40 +0000 UTCNo the last thing we need is an anti-Brun (who also had their apartment & workplace burned down)!
Miyaa
2025-02-28 13:45:22 +0000 UTCRobot AIs need their own robot bidets too!
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:43:29 +0000 UTCI think most of the world knows it, with the exception of those crazy backwards imperial-system-hugging 'mericans.
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:41:22 +0000 UTC"Bongo" as in the "DoA" bongo phenomenon?
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:39:48 +0000 UTCRule 34 has several associates. One of them has to deal with "author makes up kinky-ass kink and later we all find out it's already a thing."
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:38:52 +0000 UTCThat's next week.
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:36:42 +0000 UTCFaye might squeeze her; the shop certainly has several powered devices for squeezing soft squishy things.
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:35:42 +0000 UTCMost sensible development I can think of, is Anh has accounting / financial skills. Maybe connections. Something that can help expand the business. Assuming, of course, Faye doesn't murderize Anh.
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:32:54 +0000 UTCBy the gods below, I am nigh-horrified at the prospect of AI-bidets. Not quite where Faye's mind went, but bad enough. May these terrible thoughts not bear fruition. :O
Michael Steamweed
2025-02-28 13:31:27 +0000 UTC"I really what?"
Rich Holmes
2025-02-28 12:21:06 +0000 UTCI just looked over the list of words that start with "wha", and have no idea what word Ahn was about to say.
Jonathan
2025-02-28 11:45:26 +0000 UTCOptimum possible outcome: Anh turns out to have legit tech skills that complement Faye and Bubbles, can afford to do an unpaid internship at Union Robotics, genuinely wants to do something practical with her life, and will bond deeply with Faye over exactly how great bidets are. Second best outcome: just the bidet part.
Stephen Wells
2025-02-28 11:36:40 +0000 UTCWhy a duck? Already famous: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=om45xUUVYGw

2025-02-28 10:46:03 +0000 UTCBeing a time traveler is a real pain in the continuum. You'll need to be careful not to mention March 30, 2025. Hang on, which year is this?
William Burns
2025-02-28 10:40:45 +0000 UTCFair. I feel like I’m one of the very few to get a chuckle out of this one. Oh well, to each their own.
Brian
2025-02-28 10:11:22 +0000 UTC😂 Yes, I buy that. (Including the last one)
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 08:55:22 +0000 UTCIsn't it more in fairness to Anh that she DIDN'T burn down her apartment? (as far as we know)
Bagge
2025-02-28 08:09:20 +0000 UTCShe's just running through a montage of all her most impulsive moments. Sleeping with Sven, drinking herself into the hospital, punching Corpse Witch in the face, murdering Anh. Oh wait umm... forget that last one. Spoilers.
BookBeard
2025-02-28 08:05:23 +0000 UTCHere's to hoping The Duct becomes a permanent character
Not that Patrick Foltz
2025-02-28 07:05:27 +0000 UTCFaye would murder her almost immediately. She's been granted a stay of execution for now, but living together? No way.
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 07:03:13 +0000 UTCAny bets as to what memories specifically Faye is thinking about in panel 3? xD
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 07:02:28 +0000 UTCIt's always Thursday somewhere.
BookBeard
2025-02-28 07:00:14 +0000 UTCIt makes sense that they would get the joke, because they have been listening in on all conversations in their sensory radius since they arrived.
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:57:57 +0000 UTCYou all confuse me when you say these things, because it's Friday in my timezone xD Thursday is a day where we do get a Patreon comic.
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:56:10 +0000 UTComg that completely changed my view of the comic FAYE KNOWS
SpookyPenguin
2025-02-28 06:54:49 +0000 UTCFaye has; it was in the last comic xD
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:54:35 +0000 UTCI was hoping to see Anh go flying when Bubbles got there xD
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:54:07 +0000 UTCThat would only make sense if Faye was in the room when Pintsize made the joke, though. It doesn't work particularly well as a callback if there's no link with the character who's saying it. Oh well; not every joke has to land, but I had higher hopes for a Pintsize joke in relation to Anh. Lots of good material there.
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:53:20 +0000 UTCwoosh
SpookyPenguin
2025-02-28 06:52:45 +0000 UTC@Sean there's a lot of that going around lately. Supplies are getting low.
Opus the Poet
2025-02-28 06:49:43 +0000 UTCOh, she's not going to let Anh WORK for them. They couldn't afford to hire May, and Faye likes May. Faye might still help her, though.
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:41:47 +0000 UTCIn fairness to Faye, her apartment burned down...
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:41:04 +0000 UTCShhhh bonus comic bonus comic
enchantedsleeper
2025-02-28 06:40:48 +0000 UTCis Ang the new Marten, a new best friends in the hood? Is she gonna be the new roomie toooo?
Pille
2025-02-28 05:53:33 +0000 UTCHonestly, she kinda pulled the same move Faye did when she shoved up on Marten's doorstep

2025-02-28 05:43:10 +0000 UTCHer mouth is such a doodle, and I’m here for it 🤣
legobil
2025-02-28 05:17:48 +0000 UTC...and then I read a little further along in the comments and Bookbeard clued me in. It's a callback to this: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5260
JCfromNC
2025-02-28 05:09:35 +0000 UTCAh. And **now** I get the joke.
JCfromNC
2025-02-28 05:01:14 +0000 UTCMe, too. I'd have pretty much the same reaction as Anh to what sounded like a complete non-sequitur, because I can't figure out how "what's his name" follows from "I use a bidet."
JCfromNC
2025-02-28 05:00:14 +0000 UTCJangff, I regret to inform you that it is once again Thursday.
Sammitch
2025-02-28 04:40:15 +0000 UTCThen I'll squeeze her the pan way and change her life for the better. 😅😂😉
Carrie
2025-02-28 04:29:39 +0000 UTCShe didn't even hire Sam to clean the shop! I don't think we have anything to worry about with Anh
Grace Kieser
2025-02-28 04:17:41 +0000 UTCI just realized Anh pulled a Marten!
Grace Kieser
2025-02-28 04:15:58 +0000 UTCI don't think she's even considering hiring her (yet). To me this just reads as Faye realizing she's perhaps being a bit harsh on Anh in light of her own history.
BookBeard
2025-02-28 03:56:45 +0000 UTCI came to make this same comment. It's super duper important that she doesn't commit to anything before bubbles can talk with her about it.
Bel
2025-02-28 03:53:08 +0000 UTCThat's it, Anh goes into the compost heap.

2025-02-28 02:43:54 +0000 UTCFaye, are you going to make another decision about the shop without consulting your partner? Remember how that went last time?
Populuxe
2025-02-28 02:43:06 +0000 UTCGood, I'm not the only one who thought today was Wednesday!
Not that Patrick Foltz
2025-02-28 02:41:00 +0000 UTCIt only took 5517 comics, but I think this might be the first time a QC joke landed flat for me. I mean, that was a pretty impressive run.
Alcaria Swain
2025-02-28 02:39:29 +0000 UTCFAYE NO
Jack Foy
2025-02-28 02:33:14 +0000 UTCI feel that Faye is giving in to reason too quickly, there hasn't even been a little mayhem yet!

2025-02-28 01:48:45 +0000 UTC"Bidet? You've said the secret word!" Ahn has passed Faye's secret "Is she really a rich bongo?" test.
ValdVin
2025-02-28 01:48:10 +0000 UTCIn fairness, Faye is already somewhat familiar. I can't remember which specific page, but Hannalore did have one installed in the coffee shop.
