Questionable Content/Funny
Note: examples are sorted in numerical order -- please insert new examples in their corresponding places. Exceptions may be made when a sequence of strips is nominated collectively.
- Deathbot-9000 would rather avoid internet drama
- Now we're even. Bitch.
- Maybe I have an exceptionally juvenile sense of humor, but I have to nominate Yet Again. Panels two and three (the sound effects, Marten's expressions) are pretty fantastic, but it was the robot's follow-up in panel four that ensured I would never stop laughing.
- Not to mention "mantenna array".
- The strip where Vespavenger gets arrested by the cops.
Officer: I got a cooler of cold brewskies in the trunk. |
Marten: No yelling in the library! |
- Robot Fidel Castro will rub his pube-beard all over your ignorant capitalist faces!
- Comic no. 895: Meena has a plan for messing with her masturbating ex's mind. (A LOT better than it sounds.)
- Assimilation.
- "No, you can not just run him through a wood-chipper first!"
- The Scarlet Letter.
- The final panel of this comic.
Penelope: Look at it! Look at my ass and tell me it's pretty! |
- Panels two and three of 1056 always make this troper giggle like a little girl.
GONNNNNNNG |
- This Troper has a soft spot for when Pintsize fights the Roomba
- Marten and Dora discussing alternative employment options in Experience Required.
- "Really? Do you get the recurring dream where the rapping penis tells you to kill your friends too?"
- The look on Sven's face in the last panel had me cracking up for a good three minutes.
- I'm impressed Faye could make a sketch that good all the way at the bottom of a coffee cup, actually.
- Wil decides to take his life on the road, as dramatically as possible. And then Penelope just gets dragged in to the overacting.
- Nothing has made this editor LOL more than this.
Pintsize: MAHTEN ... MAHTEN ... COME OUTSIDE ... |
- this troper puts forth strip 1349.
- Candles? Check. Rose petals? Check. Champagne? Check. Fake mustache? Priceless.
- Will's vision quest.
- Steve can't sing.
- Yelling Bird gets his comeuppance. And the follow up which is possibly another Crowning Moment of Awesome for Yelling Bird.
- Dora takes the very frustrated Faye to a sex toy shop, squicking out the poor girl. After complaining the whole time, after they leave the shop Faye asks "Can I have the next, like...hour off?" and jumps for joy when Dora says yes.
- The strip immediately following it is even better:
Marten: So, if you went with Faye, where's she been all this.... Oh. |
- These are TIME SNOWBALLS, and they're achieving relativistic VELOCITY and they're gonna hit you twenty years in the FUTURE!
- It's the boner shark!
- Honestly, the best part of that one isn't the boner shark. It's Penelope's face in the background. A look of total resignation. You can totally tell she's thinking "It's gonna be one of those mornings..."
- I have a soft spot for Hannelore messing with her friends.
- QC Sock Puppet Theatre will never get old. (Well, maybe it'll get old eventually but it'll still be funny.)
- "Of course I was programmed! I'M A COMPUTER!"
- STOP HUGGING! STOP HUGGING!
- With Maximum Ridiculosity.
Marten: I posit that ladies' bosoms are rad. Do you agree? |
Penelope: I was being serious! I'm gonna have to wear a hat with a chinstrap tomorrow! |
- Momo versus the squirrel.
- "I FORGOT YOU WERE THERE!" Hannelore's expression in the final panel is what makes it.
- This exchange:
Marigold: You can probably guess how many boyfriends I've had. |
- I AM THE THUMBLORD!
- Oh Sousuke-kuuuun.
- Randy. Manages to be SO annoying that she even shuts up Yelling Bird.
- For some reason, the second attempt at a Roomba-jump makes me laugh hysterically every time I see it.
- WELP I'M GOIN' TO BED
- It's Jeph's note at the bottom that always gets this troper giggling.
- Grind on my booty! Grind on my booty!
- In this strip Steve and Marten admit to having drunkenly made out at one point. Dora and Faye's reaction? "RECREATE THIS. NOW."
- OH GOD THEY TEAMED UP!—Where's the t-shirt of THAT?
- Funnier because the next panel has Hanners taking it all in stride:
Marten: There needs to be a word for those brief moments of clarity when you realize just how profoundly weird your life is. |
- NO TIPS FOR ALLIANCE SCUM! *slam*
- "I think you mean ri COCK ulous."
- That's probably not an overnight express.
Steve: If you guys keep making fun of me I'm not gonna share any of my cookies. |
- Every single strip in the hiring new Coffee of Doom employees storyline. In the interest of saving space, though, some highlights:
- Faye teaching Hanners her contempt face.
- God dammit, Sven.
- Apparently Dora objects.
- Can You Really Blame Him. Marten's face in panel four is capable of making this troper laugh for ten minutes straight.
Faye: Oh, all right. The ears dig into my tummy when I sit down, anyway. |
- Better Than You Can Imagine is one of this troper's guaranteed giggle-inducers.
- Even the guys want Sven.

- Panels 1 and 2: Drinking to get over a breakup. Panels 3 and 4: Drinking to purge the sight from his eyes.
- "Goddamnit, you showed them the picture of me with the dildo, didn't you."
- The photo in question. Extra points for it really being a cute picture.
- And the comment below the comic. "YES"
- The photo in question. Extra points for it really being a cute picture.
- THIS PLACE IS A BUTT AND YOU ARE ALSO A BUTT
- Best instant flash mob support group EVER.
- I'm not Marigold, I'm Hannelore!

- Clinton's robotic hand, and its semi-autonomous mode.
- "Ah, but what if you put a male Okapi in space?"
Hannerz: *horrified look* |

- This:
Angus: Duck... Duck... Duck... |
- Momo's face as she reads the "Applied Robotics" catalog.
- Marten's " I-just-got-laid-and-now-I'm-catatonic" face in this comic. You know you have a Crowning Moment Of Funny when even the comic's author laughs at it.
- "Welp, now I've drawn a holographic dong in the comic."
- "Marten, no! You still have your... mass."
- HERE'S TO PRINCIPLE
- "We are all going to die." "PROBABLY NOT"
- "WOO"
- "We are all going to die." "PROBABLY NOT"
- Station's automated Kill-droids lament that it's just a false alert.
Kill-Droid: AWW! We never get to kill ANYBODY! |
- Sleep deprivation results in some funny faces. More so from a hologram.
- These strips.[4] This probably is how cults get started.
