As for my thoughts on the comic, I will say that Claire irked me a bit there. But I have problems with people shipping actual people, so there's that.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
I have no problem with fictional characters imagining the motives and feelings of another set of fictional characters.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
I get that it is silly and an established character trait. It just didn't work so well for me.
As for Sherlock and Mr. Darcy, I heard that one before.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Not rarely it develops into influencing people TO be a couple. When it happens with real people. Or sabotaging other relationships because it is not your ship. Obviously not saying it always happens but it does once in a while.
As for Faye and Bubbles... I don't see it. Maybe I'm old-fashioned but... it takes a lot more for me to start shipping a human and a robot. *insert obligatory Futurama clip*

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
True, but this is not happening here.
And, well, sabotaging other relationships is bad, but that's not something I've ever come across in this context. Trying to set people up with each other though, I also don't really see how that's inherently bad. It can certainly be mishandled (see: Clinton and Emily), but that certainly doesn't invalidate the whole concept, and sometimes it works out much better (see: Marigold and Dale)."'But there's still such a lot to be done...'
YES. THERE ALWAYS IS."

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
I realize that it is silly on my part. Maybe it's because I am not seeing it on my end, and we just had an arc that shows Claire does meddle other people's affairs.
I know it is just an observation at this point. I guess stuff like this has become a personal pet peeve of mine due to other factors within my own life.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
...well then. I can't remember if supernatural elements have been hinted at before in QC, but this would be corroborating evidence, potentially.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Off the top of my head...
Dora was part of a coven, and she brought in the head of her order to examine Collette and see if she was under a curse, since all the businesses she'd work for before had failed soon after she went to work for them.
Dora and Hanners have apparently been possessed by eldritch spirits and spoken in non-human tongues during periods of extreme irritation.
At least one of Emily's computer projects went so wrong it began to show Etheric manifestations and the government had to send haz-mat suited workers to contain it.
So the supernatural is THERE, but it's not a major element.
So far.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
So, my german was never exactly amazing, but is that beer called "Wormfather Death's-head-birthday Dark Brown?"
Oh, yes it is. He left a note.“Evil is evil. Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I'm not a pious hermit, I haven't done only good in my life. But if I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all.”

Sounds a bit like random dark-sounding words strong together, really. No one would ever say "Totenkopfgeburtstag".Resident Vancian Apologist

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Yes, you can create some crazy words in german, which technically are correct words, and then there's what people will actually use and say. Also there are still rules to that, and when you string words together, there are implications of which part means what. And "Totenkopfgeburtstag" falls under the "Technically correct but I can't imagine anyone saying that" category.
Not just because it sounds funny, but it doesn't even make a lot of sense either. It's not "the birthday of death's head" same as you'd not say "Frankgeburtstag" for "Frank's birthday" - it would just be "Franks Geburtstag". Yes, we're not stringing everything together. :)
It sounds more like the proper name for a very specific birthday as in "Silberhochzeit" for "silver wedding" aka your 25th anniversary.Last edited by Morquard; 2016-11-01 at 10:40 AM.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Totenkopfgeburtstag is a specific birthday, but not everyone gets to have one. It's the word for when your birthday is also the day you die. True facts totally not pulled out of my ass, nosireebob!

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Well, we Germans have a great sense of humour.
But yeah, I think jeph just had fun putting something metal sounding in google translate... Though I have seen far worse attempts.
No, but I think you don't refer to any situation where someone supports a relationship as shipping. It usually only applies when it turns somewhat obsessive... No?

And Claire does not have a history of sticking her nose into other people's relationship business where it doesn't belong, at all. So I can't see anything going wrong with this...

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
This is an interesting aspect of Brun's personality. Both that she's a fighting - although very bad at it - drunk, and that she didn't warn Elliot of it, first.
And either it WAS a very evil beer, or she has no tolerance for alcohol. Which would be ironic for a bartender.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Brun turned out to be a much more facetted character that Jeph probably intended from his initial shotgun-crazy bartender

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
I'm not really sure 'crazy and violent' is a new facet for Brun.

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Hmm, just realised over those last two strips, that I don't dislike Brun. She's actually pretty funny and cute with Eliot there. I apparantly dislike Renee so much however, that it rubs off on anyone nearby...

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
Yeah I have had it that I disliked entire shows because f one character. (The anime kill la kill for instance, I couldn't stand it but realized that scenes without Mako were actually watchable. I don'tthink I would have considered it great anyway, but I might have finished it if she wasn't there. Even if it would just have been because it was popular at the time.)

Re: Questionable Content 10: La Li Lu Le Lo
It's worth noting that Renee was used to A, establish that Angus has a type (aka girls like Faye) and B, to establish that he and Renee broke up due to Renee being an absolute gorram jerk (his words).
So I think us disliking her could simply be Jeph being too good at writing characters that are terrible people.i am going to make it through this year
