Line 35:
* It bugs me that every single character in the strip seems to have the same sense of humor. This has gotten better in recent strips, but I facepalmed when Steve met ''a random girl on the street'' that was not only able to sass back and forth with him, but was able to do so with jokes about corpses and working at the morgue. Admittedly, that was the low point of this feeling, and Meena's turned out relatively interesting, but still.
** This troper feels the same way, and also wonders how it is that so many people who've read Dune manage to come into contact. Out of a hundred people, some of them English literature majors, this troper only found 1 guy who'd read Dune --- the guy to whom this troper had recommended the book.
*** Not all of them had to have read the book. This troper got the ''mom jabbar'' pun because the original was mentioned on the page for [[The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy|Billy and Mandy]].
** This troper actually finds that QC has pretty impressive characterisation for a strip with such a large cast, each character possessing their own voice and personality quirks (entry above about all the women being nuts: they're all nuts ''in different ways''). [[Your Mileage May Vary]], of course. However, I don't find it too unreasonable to think that a bunch of people who are all meant to get along as friends would share a sense of humour.
*** And not a single one of them has been [[Rape as Backstory|raped]].
Line 196:
*** We don't see blood spurting, but there is blood on the kitchen ceiling. How else would it get there if it wasn't spurting?
**** She could have flailed a bit when she realized the blood was actively flowing and more hurriedly tried to grab a dishtowel, or even just flailed in panic while ''trying'' to find the towel.
* Jeph seems to be physically incapable of drawing overweight people. His "chubby" girls like Faye and Marigold are just normal women, probably thinner than an average American woman themselves, who think they are overweight because their universe is populated by anorexics and stick-figures. I mean, look at how he draws [http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=856 Gabe][https://web.archive.org/web/20141023024334/http://techreport.com/r.x/valve/Image32.jpg Newell], it's crazy. Is it so hard for an average-to-large person be seen as attractive in this comic?
** Honestly? I think he just lacks the talent. And I mean that in the best way possible: the man has never taken an art class, and has basically been groping blindly in order to get his art as far as it is today. Doesn't he still trace his backgrounds?
** On a similar note, [http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1888 this] is "Captain Backhair"? Seriously? And as little as he has on his back, why does he have ''less'' on his chest and arms?
Line 246:
## Hannelore asked to be taken off the meds. I just got off some heavy-duty anti-anxiety stuff myself, and the reasons is that I wanted to try living without what I felt to be some kind of crutch. Or Hanners just didn't like some of the things she wound up doing while medicated.
