Who's Bi First

THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKIN' YOU!!!

Who's Bi First

Comments

Comedy is tragedy plus time, and since it's still the same day it's probably more a tragedy of errors...

Leak

I'm obsessed with Anh

Shey

This gives me flashbacks to 99% of discussions I had with neurotypical people

Fabio Neves

Agreed 100%! Too bad it is not helping, vis a vis Anh that is. 😅

legobil

Thank you both, and you're probably both right, some combination of the two. I was in a very grouchy mood yesterday (bad day.) More often I would let it slide or at least try to make a more pleasant reminder to respect others' names (especially names from other languages and cultures.)

Clifton Royston

Anh is rapidly becoming my new favorite character, and she and Hanners together seem like they would be a very fun odd couple.

Glenn

The Webcomic Dumbing of Age; the Jeph and it's creator Willis are friends, or perhaps frenemies depending on the exact moment and the state of the current Butts Disease infections. Joyce and Dorothy are main characters with frequent sexual tensions.

Karvil

yeah,,,,, her rear end

Pejo

(I don't know who Joyce and Dorothy are, what context am I missing?)

SilverbackRon

I think it's because there's no unique way to pronounce Anh in English (unless you do "An-huh"), so people latching onto the most likely pronunciation (as "Ahn") which becomes easier to remember than the proper spelling.

Bill Silvia

This does not have enough likes! Have another.

SilverbackRon

That Hanners is sexy? Yes

Nicolas Dao-Phan

Thanks Jeph! I've been having medical issues since Dec 31st 2001. There's been a lot of ups and downs, but I'm hanging in there.

Yelling Bird

I am not going to "like" that story, but I'm glad that you're around to tell it.

Ursus Ridens

Opus, that's what I was in for this last time. Had a massive kidney infection. They said they found a stone and were going to have to surgically remove it. They took a CT scan to get it's exact location and couldn't find it again.

Yelling Bird

Graydon, a lot of people have thought that I'm secretly Jeph. It's the main reason I pulled back on the intensity of my earlier posts. It's bad enough if I go too far or I misword something that makes it seem like what I'm saying is far worse than I intended it to be, but I don't want people to make the further mistake of thinking that it was actually Jeph saying it.

Yelling Bird

They must become an item. I need to see this.

Chris Warren

I have no desire to 'ship these two. Anh is just a horrible person, as Jeph himself has said. I have a lot higher hopes for Hanners--she deserves so much more!

Mooster

Ah... Absence Of Tone In Text™ strikes again! My bad

djellafine

@dcy665 - that is unfortunate.

allanfranta

either or both works

dcy665 .

I hope you're over it soon, Yelling Bird. I had a bout of medical stuff last month - five days in the hospital, which was about two days longer than necessary, and at that I had to sign myself out AMA on my personal specialist's advice. Much better now. I hope you will be, too, and that you'll get excellent care meantime.

jonesnori

It could be autocorrect. I know I don't always notice when it changes something on me. I usually remember to proofread, but sometimes something will slip by. And a lot of people miss more.

jonesnori

Had an old drinking buddy who's first name was Byron. He insisted people call him Ron.

OldGoat

She's been a lot better about the touching, lately, hugging friends and everything. And she was never exactly happy with her touch issues.

Daryl Sawyer

Hanners is collecting... challenging friends

enchantedsleeper

@Yenni Desroches But effective communication goes both ways. Message-Feedback-Adjust Message if necessary and resend. Ever had a boss that would give ambiguous instructions then get angry when someone asked for clarification? Yeah, that guy. Women do it, too.

OldGoat

Nothing in Anh's life is ever a her problem xD

enchantedsleeper

"Puns are lego for jokes."

Photon

Note that Hanners IS also an heiress, and isn't... as confused as Anh. (Beware the No True Scotsman error here.)

Philip Masters

The nice touch is that Hanners is demonstrating that Good Is Not Dumb. She's responding to Anh's confusion about as rationally as anyone could, and remaining unflustered.

Philip Masters

Andropyrosexual?

OldGoat

Naturally is... the catcher. Naturally!

Photon

I should have said "lawyer up" not "pay up"...

allanfranta

But she is rather toxic...

Photon

Yea I knew someone a lot like this in my twenties, a wild 6 months of nonstop drama. Made life more interesting and the rest of our friend group has stories for days but we had to cut her out lol

Laura Sullivan

Ok but Hanners being Anh's Big Bi Awakening is hilarious for both of them for very different reasons.

CthonicBelletrist

@Opus you recall correctly, but it was a story that Penelope was telling Faye, and therefore not definitive. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1932

BookBeard

Anh just kind of latches on to wherever her mind ping pongs to next, huh?

Cole Blackblood

I would love to ship these two, but we all know Hanners isn't going to go for it ~<3

Mitsuki Ayane

Except that Anh isn't masculine

Jan Szejko

"That seems like a you problem."

djellafine

Saturize, actually.

Joshua Brumley

@nbarnes you win the comments section today

djellafine

@Joshua Generalize much?

djellafine

This is toxic masculinity in a nutshell. "She's not into me. But she's so sexy."

Marc Ducharme

passive agressive curiosity. amazing.

Richard Bruckner

Here's hoping they fix your cloaca.

William Burns

*Some* people think all kinds of consarned foolery.

William Burns

I think that's a coloring problem. What you're seeing as the bottom of the wineglass is meant to be a gap between Hanners' body and arm, but it colored as part of her dress, making it look transparent.

Carl Fink

The problem with the rich is they don't have to be smart and act accordingly, if they screw up, they pay up and move on.

allanfranta

You've never encountered a person who assumes that someone is seductive because that person dressed up nicely that day, for instance? I mean, I'm a guy and I've run into that.

Carl Fink

They'll fix that in post.

allanfranta

Philip Masters, thank you. Out-of-context problems is a great explanation for most of my life's confusions.

allanfranta

I have had lady friends, and I was their gentleman caller. Being over 30 and having a "girl"-friend only makes you eligible to be a congressman from Florida.

allanfranta

Apparently...

allanfranta

One of the primary purposes of fiction is to explore situations that we don't/can't/shouldn't/wouldn't in reality.

Stephen Wells

The sound of an author starting to regret what they've unleashed on, and in, their audience :)

Stephen Wells

Nah. She clearly has a high libido, and she hardly seems homophobic given her friendship with Tai. If she could get her rocks off with women, I think she'd have discovered that by now. As someone said above, she has two weapons in her toolkit: intimidation and seduction. Intimidation won't work on Hanners, but she finds Hanners interesting, so her brain has gone all scrambled and reset to the other option, despite the fact that she has no inclination to use it.

Philip Masters

Oh jeepers! Figure out their type or crush and see if you can help them figure out how they feel. Or, they're crushing on you and this is how they deal with it being one sided.

Carrie

But you don't have Anh's rather over-specialised antennae. Hannelore is an out-of-context problem for her, so of course she's misinterpreting everything.

Philip Masters

🥵🤩

Carrie

I believe Lorelei is referencing the "Who's On First" skit performed by Abbott and Costello: https://youtu.be/sYOUFGfK4bU?si=cGF4RmUhWmtEBMgP

Elizabeth Rosenzweig

Yay team squiggly zigzag!

Carrie

Especially since Hanners is elementally repulsed by bodily fluids, kissing, and even touching other people.

gaijin 99

Oh my god

Jeph Jacques

Thanks and I hope your medical crap gets less crappy soon!!

Jeph Jacques

i don't know, third base... this is so funny, absolutely blessed dynamic

Boots McGoot

Bi furious

Eoin Madsen

These two just met today, Joyce and Dorothy are in their second semester in the same dorm.

Opus the Poet

Don't forget third base is a Home Run for Girl-Girl Action.

Opus the Poet

Penelope is not Pizza Girl, i distinctly remember a strip with P and PG pointing at each other like the Spider-man Meme saying "You." "You!"

Opus the Poet

I'm just guessing that's what Anh thinks

Jan Szejko

... Is this really a thing that people think?

Am Queue

@nbarnes I understood that reference.. I'll get my flying monkeys to lift that house off my sister and be right with you.

Opus the Poet

Or at least scene reports.

Am Queue

I can relate to medical crap, I just got home from rehab for a kidney infection, 2 months after getting home from my second fall in 2 months. I was only back from rehab 5 days from the first fall when I had the second fall, and I spent 10 hours on my back in a walk-in shower with a loofa bath mat abrading the skin off my back. Loofa mats are great for not slipping in the shower, awful for laying down on. I spent 2 weeks healing up from that one.

Opus the Poet

*cough* Man, a lot of people seem to have trouble spelling Anh when it's right in front of them on the comic page.

Clifton Royston

Naturally.

Travis Young

Two people inexperienced in the ways of non-penetrative intercourse (or, as Erika Moen would put it, “girlfuck”) with trouble communicating together, such as, I don’t know, on laying out expectations. What could possibly go wrong?

Comics Ladybird

Hann’s Ahn’s first

Ísabel Pirsic

This is pretty much the quintessential QC.

Abhayakara

Anh seems like she would be very good at interacting with people...who never say what they mean. People who say exactly what they mean, like Hanners, apparently mystify her.

Davus Otho

Hannelore is probably firemansexual anyway.

Shane Wegner

Hanners is sending mixed signals, because on one hand she says she's not into girls, but on the other, she's so sexy

Jan Szejko

This reminds me of my friend… “I’m only gay when I’m drunk.”

Steven Ametjan

There hasn't been a single comic with those two that didn't make me laugh.

Bagge

I think the problem is definitely on Ahn's end.

mathw

Elf, you're making me need more journal entries!

Graydon Armstrong

I had always been assuming you were Jeph's alt! Medical crap is crap, hope you're through it okay soon.

Graydon Armstrong

Naturally.

William Cole

Guess you're just going to let the more (ahem) amateur artists... bring this arc to it's ... um... climax.

Lightsabr2

Fair

Anthony Gaglianese

Her interest in Sven suggests she's made a lot of mistakes in clubs, tbh.

Bill Silvia

This is so close to being perfect. If only "cracking an egg" was associated with a bisexual awakening.

Bill Silvia

He sure is!

Eric Sieck

I love everything about Ahn and I want a comic series of her life

A_Shadowmage_in_the_Pearlmania_War

So, who _is_on first, anyway?

Ursus Ridens

Ahahahaha, this was so funny. All of you.

legobil

The train is leaving the station, the lights are blinking, choo-choo! Anh: What?!

legobil

Oh, Hanners. So pure, so pure. Never stop being you. Anh: More mixed signals?!

legobil

"THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKIN' YOU!!!" "Third base!" ... "Well now you've just confused the issue further."

Duke

Yea but it's generally mixed because of how it's being read, not how it's being spoken/done

Yenni Desroches

Comedy of Eros to follow.

Elf Sternberg

Jeph, I've been having another bad bout of medical crap lately, and as shitty as I feel QC never fails to make me feel better. I know I can be an asshole on here, but it's always in an effort to be funny. Thanks for everything you do.

Yelling Bird

Well that's just great, Zilcho. We've been out here six seconds and you've already managed to blow the routine.

ValdVin

The last confirmed sighting of pizza girl was #3642, although there was someone in CoD recently who looked suspiciously like her... https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3642 https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5110

BookBeard

No one expects the Spanish Anh-quisiton!

Andrew

Heh... And girls wonder why guys get annoyed at "mixed" signals. :)

Joshua Brumley

Brilliantly executed.

Tim Starliper

What about OUT of firefighting gear?

Tim Starliper

it seems fine to me, most of the left side of the glass is behind Hanners' hand Handers

Minzoku Bokumetsu

I DON'T GIVE A DARN!

William Cole

*my gear laddened hat opens up to reveal a steam powered gattling gun filled with stakes*

Gamera

No, no, no. What's'er name is on third base. With Sally.

BobC

Her two tools are intimidation, seduction, and a ruthless commitment to her own advaHER THREE TOOLS are intimidation, seduction, a ruthless commitment to her own advancement, andAMONGST HER TOOLS ARE SUCH DIVERSE ITEMS AS.... I'll come in again.

nbarnes

Ahhhhh, she's deep in the bisexual panic, huh

Kristina

I mean the romance novel basically writes itself

James Anthony

"... stungun and mace, Karmann Ghia plates say 'Lost in Space.'" Yeah, that's about the right speed for Ahn.

Elf Sternberg

I don't know (THIRD BASE!)

Joseph Houk

I made sexy mistakes on a mountain once, although in the Cascades, not Tibet. God, he was gorgeous. And unlike Brokeback Mountain, we didn't forget the astroglide.

Elf Sternberg

That's "Dr. Heteronormativity" to you, comrade! https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1526

Elf Sternberg

And when WAS the last time we saw Pizza Girl?

Elf Sternberg

I dunno. Season 1 Hanners was a wildly different creature. Had sexy vibes in a "Oh, sure, I'll bite your head off after mating, because I have issues" way. Still completely unavailable, but emanating a serial killer sort of sexiness. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=520

Elf Sternberg

🎶Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na, Pizza!🎶

David Paul

Heiress / volunteer firefighter. Stranger things have happened?

Andrew

@Logan Nix they call it "The Zoo". All ages access, but only VIPs go into the animal pens.

David Paul

Bi's on first, Pan's on second, but I Don't Know is still on third.

Rob Vary

Both Anh and the wine glass are being affected by the strong lesbian vibes of the wedding. They make everything just a little less straight.

BookBeard

The night is young.

BookBeard

OMG this one had me LMAO!!

Sean Rotter

Now all we need is two troublemaking twins and an ambiguously flamboyant hotel manager... Maybe Hanners should quit the coffee shop and start selling candy?

Logan Nix

Or go to a random club and shovel yak poo? Not sure what kind of club that'd be though

Logan Nix

As they say, "Two heiress human; tofu gived vine."

Mad Marie

I wonder how many women are on mountains in Tibet. Lotsa monks there, just saying.

Mad Marie

Pizza girl runs in. " Did somebody activate The Signal?"

Mad Marie

I you remove "the law" in that sentence,

Mad Marie

I suppose Ahn really is, I also keep forgetting Hanner's heritage.

Doc Gumby

... Girls: definitely no. Now a woman, on the other hand...

Mad Marie

I resemble that remark...

Doc Gumby

I approve of this message.

Anthony Gaglianese

Split the difference. Go to Tibet and make sexy mistakes on a mountain.

BookBeard

Both, probably.

BookBeard

"Look, I just came over to say that I don't want to have sex with you either. So the fact that you aren't interested is a good thing. Unless you are? But you're not, so fine. I mean, if your not sure...? No, okay. Me too. Good. Fine. *cough*"

BookBeard

i feel like both of these people have never interacted with anyone like each other before. it's like a shark talking to a yak.

LH

She certainly seems fairly bent to me.

Doug DeJulio

But has Hanners ever seen a girl in firefighting gear?

Matthew Weber

it's actually just a nickname, their full name is Bison First

LH

When your only tools are intimidation and seduction, everything looks like a potential conquest.

Elberik

I can't tell if they're gonna be great friends or if Hannelore is going to have to lay down the law at some point on her.

KSib

See, the stem has a curve in it by design. She just rotated the glass so it became evident.

Sexagesimalian

well duh, you're clearly not a sexy fireman

LH

"I'm not bi-ing--YOU'RE bi-ing!" 😭

Mad Marie

I have yet so see a sexy signal of any kind from Hannelore.

Doc Gumby

"I'm desperate to be your friend but let's sort the sex thing out first and it's your fault ok"

SpookyPenguin

Abbot and Costello can never be forgotten for this deathless joke.

SpookyPenguin

In panel 2, Hannelore is so flustered she has broken the stem off that wine glass. That or bent it.

Matthew Delahaye

Similar to an heirhead?

Sean Kinlin

I'm starting to think Anh might not be very straight.

The World Famous Chocomerican

This is your brain on heteronormativity

Gamera

Anh needs to do some soul-searching. And not the 'go to Tibet and scale a mountain' like Hanners did, more the 'go to a random club and make some sexy mistakes' kind.

Anthony Gaglianese

THIRD BASE!

Buck Caldwell

At least nobody's been threatened with arm-breaking yet!

Wynn Donivan

"I'm starting to think Ahn might not be very bright." - Well, she is an heiress.

Jimi Ballard

Someone please smack Ahn with a clue by four.

Miyaa

Poor Hannah

Jim Sharkey

SEAN GDI NO (Take your like ya filthy animal!)

Miyaa

SUBTLE

Andrew

HOLD HANDS HOLD HANDS HOLD HANDS

Lorelei

I love this woman so much! She's hilarious!

Vilinda

Why be bright when you can be rich and angry?

Timothy Roller

Who's Ahn first?

Sean Kinlin

Strike that, reverse it. Ask Station to take out Instagram's servers from orbit.

Emma Humphries

Idea, someone ask Station to delete Anh's Instagram.

Emma Humphries

Steady on, they haven't even held hands yet! 😂

Dean Reilly

Don't Be Ridiculous! 🙄

SilverbackRon

Yes, not the sexual orientation but rather a player with the unlikely name of “Bi” is on first!

el_zilcho

Nice.

Doc Gumby

If it was anyone other than Hannelore, I’d suggest that they experiment to be sure.

Taigan

I with Hanners on this one.

Drazi

Ahn is very Ahn-centric. Hanners is rightly puzzled.

Doc Gumby

She's just too pure

Kenneth Harris

Hanners has no routines for this level of nonsense. And she has dealt with Pintsize.

Tannerbot

The problem is definitely on Anh's end.

Shawn K. Younkin

When one of them says "I don't know", does that mean they made it to Third Base?

Z Winningham

Anh, she's a comedy of errors.

Jeremy

to be clear, it's good to be clear

Brendan Luster

THIRD BASE!

A Lorelei V

As a late-in-life lesbian, I didn't expect to be clocked so hard tonight 😅

Aerin Moriarty

Projecting much?

Jessie Bunton

Hanners' face in panel two is perfection.

Armcannon Productions

Jeph, have you been thinking about Joyce and Dorothy?

Andrea Andrew

Bahaha I would not want to know this disaster in real life but written very entertaining
