Directember: They See Him Rollin'
Added 2024-12-15 23:29:24 +0000 UTCI wonder what that roomba is up to these days. Raising its offspring in Cubetown, perhaps? Sorry for not much commentary on this one, I was just on planes and trains for 14 hours and my brain is fried.

It semi-successfully monetized its brief notoriety, and now has an occasional podcast in which it criticizes robo-vacuums which report everything they know about your home to some big conglomerate somewhere.

2024-12-16 23:34:51 +0000 UTCThe Bearmonster is unquestionably one of Jeph's finest designs, and is always in style.

2024-12-16 18:04:09 +0000 UTCThe Roomba and some of its offspring have started a colony among the seabirds on some Newfoundland cliffs (off Witless Bay, I think), where they emphatically do not clean up after anybody. They considered going to Iceland, too, but haven't figured out how to recharge mid-ocean. (Other possibilities include working their way over on cruise liners and just hitching clandestine rides on containerships.)

2024-12-16 17:49:14 +0000 UTCHe did say he'd begun writing them already when he announced his hiatus. I guess he caught up with himself, though. Trying to do the commentary while also drawing the comic is probably a lot.

2024-12-16 09:54:48 +0000 UTCJeph is writing commentary right before posting? I figured he blazed through a month's worth in advance (when he told us he was taking the month off) & is just posting one at a time, like I understood him to do w/ comics.

2024-12-16 04:25:15 +0000 UTC@Carl Fink Ohhh, I get it! Thank you, I had never heard of that. The only Ghost Rider I knew of was a Marvel comic book character and that did not seem connected at all.

2024-12-16 03:56:05 +0000 UTCIt's important that you never let your Roomba clean up human blood or it WILL want to kill you
William Cole

2024-12-16 03:20:20 +0000 UTCGhost riding was a fad in the first decade of the 2000s. You get a car moving, then hop out of it and dance alongside or around it, then hop back in and keep it from running into anything. Some modified versions involve getting on the car's hood or something. "Ghost" comes from the fact that the car looks like it has an invisible driver. It's quite dangerous, as you might expect. Unless the car is a sentient Roomba that doesn't want to kill you.

2024-12-16 03:18:25 +0000 UTCplanes and trains? You shoulda ghost-ridden a roomba.

2024-12-16 02:54:03 +0000 UTCAnd when was the Roomba pulling a knife on someone messing with his woman?
Captain Button
2024-12-16 02:50:49 +0000 UTCIs this before or after the Roombas and cats team up against Pintsize and Hanners says she has the good stuff?

ValdVin
2024-12-16 02:08:38 +0000 UTCHonestly I never got the "ghost riding the Roomba" line. Pintsize is walking beside it while dancing. Is that ghost riding?
SilverbackRon
2024-12-16 02:07:09 +0000 UTCI can't wait to see the roomba family drop in on Martin's coffee shop at cubetown one day

2024-12-16 01:22:19 +0000 UTCWhat if Roombas have evolved Stealth Mode?
Captain Button
2024-12-16 01:11:49 +0000 UTCEver since #3448 if any comic has visible sky I look for the Roomba. Someday my vigilance will pay off. Someday... https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3448

2024-12-16 01:02:50 +0000 UTCJust remembering this happened delighted me. ROOMBA! Living its best life out there I hope.
