Questionable Posture

these two...

Questionable Posture

Comments

Seeing how you can seethingly hate a person without that person even knowing of your existence... yes?

Leak

It looks like he is holding it in one hand, just below panel cut-off. And by holding it I mean palm over the top and grasping with fingers around the lip.

Donna Flint

I just noticed: What happens to the drink in Panel 3? It's back in Panel 4. Is he a magician?

Markus Schaber

Are you trying to say they are not real? Interesting.

Darnel D Cooper

I think that the point is simply that Sven has that effect. Especially now, when he doesn't want it.

Philip Masters

I think that this is just an extension of the joke about Sven's uncontrollable sexual magnetism. This other woman had zeroed on him, and was about to initiate conversation, when another woman spoke to him and he responded politely -- which was enough to induce instant intense jealousy and frustration. Sven causes excessive desire-related emotions by just standing there.

Philip Masters

Boldly forward past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.

Hugh Eckert

I think the interesting thing about this is that Hanners and Sven haven't said more than a couple words to each other before she looks pissed off. Like her being pissed in panel 3? Makes a bit more sense. They're clearly close and he's talking about his dick. But she looks angry in panel 2 and they've basically just done pleasantries.

Claire LeMaster

Who is the lady to the right of Sven, looking a little sour in panel 2? Doesn’t look like an AI, so probably not a casual hookup.

legobil

Carrying that torch of skilfully borderline-incomprehensible languaging boldly forward :)

Stephen Wells

Lydia's chin was more rounded.

Carl G Knoblock

I wrote what I wrote, how you interpreted it was your problem.

Opus the Poet

I had the usual experiences when I was young. At 82, the problem no longer arises.

Carl G Knoblock

"Lay"ers?

Carl Fink

The James Joyce of indie free newspaper cartoonists?

Hugh Eckert

or tomorrow in-universe

Joe

Teachers can be perverts, too...

Kevin Hicks

Almost the same!

Kevin Hicks

Matt Groening. ;-)

Hugh Eckert

...is that James Joyce? :)

Stephen Wells

Glaring because the Someone would like to occupy Sven's attention?

Ursus Ridens

Not everyone gets the Minion of the Great Old Ones tentacle upgrade

Todd Ellner

He wants to be in politics. He passed the first test, lying about his qualifications.

dcy665 .

How many pizzas make it heavy? Five pizzas per being present? 10?

Carrie

So has the codpiece

Uniquitous

She does have the strappy black top and the black jeans so I'm pretty sure it's her.

alphanor

@Joseph: So Nemesis is not a symmetric relation?

Sean Kinlin

Maybe she's able to ignore the laws of physics?

Sean Kinlin

She would probably only improve the situation for Hanners though

fx_in_mind

“Because whether weak-knee shrimptoast or huffy snore-behemoth, we often have boner shame.”

Hugh Eckert

Someone is glaring at Hannelore. Call in the airstrike. The heavy airstrike.

Nicolas Dao-Phan

So many things I haven't forgotten about high school, but I definitely haven't forgotten about having to work a math problem at the chalkboard with a boner. Like, dude, you know teenage boys get random boners, why is working at the chalkboard even a thing anymore!?

Carl Cravens

Depends on your market demographic, Jack.

allanfranta

Math class. Girl in front of me always smelled nice. I always had to leave the room with my books in front of me. I mentioned this to her at our 50th class reunion and made her blush, was I wrong?!

allanfranta

Huh; I wonder if that's why my son does that very same thing. Thanks for the possible insight!

Jim Toth

Someone my daughter was dating tried the old "blue balls" line on my daughter, she laughed so hard that he never spoke to her again, she told me "No big loss there".

allanfranta

That's a Moray! Oh wait, no, that doesn't apply at all in this thread. But it scans (even though it doesn't rhyme), and thus that's what popped into my head. Which I first typoed as "pooped into my head, which...um... I'm leaving now.

Jim Toth

Damn, yours can wrap around your waist? I'm surprised you didn't just pass out from blood deprivation

Sam Suchabutt

Ah, I checked, it's the bridesmaid from strip 5404 who clearly decided to make a play for Sven as soon as Tai announced the illicit wedding hookup arrangements. ...is May at this wedding? Sensible people would not invite May to a wedding.

Stephen Wells

Penny-shaver

Duncan

Cat's cradle?

Duncan

Wearing a kilt should help with that...

Leak

I just tied it around my waist under a big sweater. No muss. No fuss.

Todd Ellner

Nobody wearing a codpiece appropriate to their station? Standards have slipped.

Todd Ellner

Yep. She is. Jealousy is a real thing

Todd Ellner

I think you’re right, although she’s missing the arm warmers (handless glove things).

John C. Kirk

In 2029 Jeph will reveal her name.

SilverbackRon

Very good catch, I didn't see her either.

SilverbackRon

Lonely Island, so funny!

SilverbackRon

It would be if May were at this, but I think we'd know by now if she was xD

enchantedsleeper

requires you to take the trans perk and do the hrt quest line

Dave, Duke of Fridges

agree.

Dave, Duke of Fridges

that thing only makes me mad when I am dragged to an event where I know nobody and the person dragging me fucking VANISHES for the entire thing

Dave, Duke of Fridges

It also doubles as a wine flask opener?

Leak

I don't think Lydia was EVER interested in Sven, either sexually or romantically.

Ingrid Nordbø

That's one wish I will never see: Banners mom coming over to the light side and changing enough so her daughter can stand her.

Darnel D Cooper

Eh .. true. Between 12 and 15 were hell that thing would embarress me everytime a woman i didn't hatell bent over or kneeled in front of me 20 /20 the librarian who was divorced and her late thirties once she noticed I spent a lot of tostaring at her,.. made my life hell. BLUE Balls is a thing.

Darnel D Cooper

We don't know that she's his date. She may have introduced herself to Sven 10 seconds ago, only to find herself ignored by someone Sven is already acquainted with. Edit: In the time I took to type this, two other comments got in before me. :-P

Justin

She was one of the wedding party, on Tai's side. I'd agree she was probably trying to flirt with Sven (who ought to get first dibs on an illicit wedding hookup since it's his bedroom) and is mad at the space princess for distracting him.

William Cole

Have you ever seen a duck penis before Trip? I encourage you to Google it. :)

Yelling Bird

That late?

Am Queue

I’d be happy to deal with them on your behalf. No need to thank me.

A. J. Alfieri-Crispin

I don't think it looks like her.

jonesnori

I noticed that, too. Well done!

jonesnori

And even in the case of his girlfriends, I wouldn't go so far as to say he was cruel (certainly not deliberately so). More... apathetically casual I guess? Definitely went through a dipshit phase after Faye though.

Thunder

Yes, she was in a previous shot, but it makes me wonder More who the bridesmaid is then.

GregD

Pretty sure she’s one of the bridemaids.

Rodrigo Ourcilleon

Considering what we saw of him not too long ago, I'd actually be somewhat surprised if Sven even brought a date. In fact, I'd give even odds that she was just someone trying to flirt with him, and is annoyed at Hanner's "cutting in".

Thunder

Well that's just plain free advertising!

Jack Hyde

Ducks have both!

Trip Space-Parasite

I think an accurate reading is that Hannelore is now THIS woman's nemesis. Of course I could be wrong.

Joseph Bonnar

I learned to cover my face with my hands during dodge ball. That was IMPORTANT.

Joseph Bonnar

Dude, you got a cloaca.

Daryl Sawyer

Valid point. I don’t get mad but I do get uncomfortable if I don’t know anyone else there.

JD

Way to make it about you.

Daryl Sawyer

I've know socially awkward dudes who get mad if their friend ends up spending time with other people at a party or a convention or something. People are weird.

Daryl Sawyer

wait is his date really mad that he’s talking to another woman…?

JD

It’s a newmesis.

Magic Chopstick Games

"You might very well think so. I couldn't possibly comment."

Maurice Kessler

Multiple layers of meaning.

Opus the Poet

Did Hanners get another piercing? I seem to remember her having five in the right ear, now it looks like six.

Carl Fink

Even at his worst, Sven was not anti-woke or something. He was only cruel to his sister and girlfriends ....

Carl Fink

"Stiff" breeze?

Carl Fink

A lot of non-penis havers also get frustrated when they have to deal with the damn things.

Mad Marie

I wear straight cut jeans, that are actually a size too large, exclusively (not a lot of comfortable clothing options for my height and build), and a certain appendage still makes itself known. It’s pretty embarrassing having to cover yourself with anything nearby to preserve your modesty when the situation is a little too exciting.

Chauncey

Oy, when I was in choir I was on the front row most of the time, and I was hard any time there was a stiff breeze.

Opus the Poet

But I highly doubt Hanners would do that one thing he likes. The one with the watermelon.

Clarence the Liar

Hanners is rich, she can have as many nemeses as she wants.

Doc Gumby

Feel a light breeze and I-jizz-in-my-pants.

Timothy Roller

Ya know that's one thing I never had to deal with. Heavy denim will hide a multitude of sins.

Jack Hyde

We've had one, yes, but what about Second Puberty?

Clarence the Liar

She of the pink Juicy wardrobe.

Doc Gumby

When standing formally, it’s either: - Stand at attention, military style - Arms crossed behind my back When I’m standing informally, it’s usually slouched to one side (my legs are long and I don’t usually know what up to with them). Sometimes, depending on the audience, I’m JoJo posing.

Chauncey

Only for you.

Doc Gumby

Wait, so having a boner 24/7 isn't normal?

Yelling Bird

$5 says that Hanners’ new nemesis is named Liz

Magic Chopstick Games

How can that woman be Hanners' nemesis? She isn't wearing pink sweatpants with JUICY on the butt.

ValdVin

I was taught to cross my hands in front of my crotch when in the wall facing a free kick. It came in handy.

ValdVin

He ain't wrong. Damn sixth grade!

Alacrity Fitzhugh

It appears so. I didn't notice at first - good catch.

alphanor

I really dig the colouring and detail in this!

Entropy

I thought Sven was developing an interest in AI after hooking up with May. If Hanners is down with it though…

Andrea Andrew

Not knowing what to do with my hands is why I do the V for Victory fingers thing in literally every single picture of me in existence

Green

Next puberty is the bext!

Diptych

I hated those years of dealing with that situation

Lyman Green

A lot of people think so, but personally I think 'losing the Olympic Pole Vault because you hooked your pole on the bar' is probably worse. At least puberty isn't globally televised.

Simon Green

I appreciate the use of "penis-haver"

Violet Moon

Not for May, it won't

Simon Green

Pfft, what's she gonna do? Withstand orbital bombardment?

Matthew Delahaye

Hen!

Matthew Delahaye

As a trans girl, I appreciate that Sven said “penis-havers” and not “boys.”

Taigan

Not sure what the question means, just referring back to old art: https://questionablecontent.fandom.com/wiki/Lydia

GregD

I'm still waiting for the orbital pizza delivery.

BobC

Is that Sam on her way to the car?

Doc Gumby

Publisher or editor?

BobC

Nah, that I worked out on my own.

Tannerbot

Oh you're right I almost forgot about that! I always thought it was more of an fwb situation though..

æ

They taught you to be handy?

BobC

First Puberty is the worst

Alcaria Swain

Svenners! It's fun to say. (I'm not sure if I'm shipping it, but I like the name.)

Amy ☣

Is that his companion? It’ll be awkward when May shows up to chit chat.

Andrea Andrew

Maybe, but Lydia was darker skinned?

GregD

They have even been on a (non-date) date before! The ship is canon! We just need a ship name. Svennelore? Svenners? Someone smarter than me will pick

Adarsh Nednur

I mean, my Junior High School did (reproductive system in biology, I think a little sex ed in health.) My high school definitely does during our health course, which everyone takes softmore year.

Davus Otho

That's possible, but I think she met Hanners, she wouldn't get jealous and storm off, lol

Aditya Rameshan

Is that the intern from like forever ago?

Joseph Unrein

Probably the original intern that Sven had many moons ago when Faye met Sven.

Miyaa

I’m pretty sure 1999 was like the last time 🇺🇸 schools taught any kind of sex education in junior high.

Miyaa

I ship 'em.

Andrew Mitchell

yes

sjlxndr

Thank god for the crotch covering blazers they make you wear in private schools

Veronica Jane

A handy bit of training we never got.

Tannerbot

…is it true?

Wednesday

Hannalore Rex!

Bridgette Ryan

I look forward to years of seeing that chick in the background whenever Hanners is out in public, glaring at her.

Czarzhan

I find it very intriguing that the girl with Sven was irritated at him paying attention to Hanners and wandering off.

GregD

Hanners will have a SECOND nemesis!

Shawn K. Younkin

Wonder who the lady is who got jealous of Hanners 🤣

Aditya Rameshan

sven's companion is JEALOUS lmao

æ

It's not the entirety of the curriculum, but it is addressed.

5099 5618

Wait. A Sven x Hanners shipping?

Miyaa

Ha! It’s funny for obvious reasons!!

Andrea Andrew

The stuff you wished they taught you verses what they did teach you

Michael
