But Dad .... My name is Jesus Christ. Dammit is over there -->.
That post script got me hard
...phrasing, thompson.
And as for Faybles, I assume they communicate - verbally or nonverbally - what each other wants and it is mutually satisfactory. The sexual organ is, after all, the brain.
There's a recurring character in Gibson novels, Rydell, who every so often just goes for it. That is, he makes sudden, drastic decisions on impulse and intuition. He is right maybe three-fourths of the time, often heroically. When he's wrong, the results are disastrous. He's an adventure novel hero displaced into a slightly more complex fictional universe. Roku and May are like that, only slightly less able, and displaced into a novel of (bad) manners, where there is no room for heroism at all. And now they are friends. This should be interesting.
I am still not clear how robot/androids have sex. Does it involve USB ports? I recall robots in past strips burning out USB ports in past strips.
I assume we will never be told, because it's FAR more funny to guess. But I assume the real answer is: In tons of interesting and endlessly variable way, depending on their specific hardware configuration and imagination.

...I for one need HOT DOG
*disembarks SS Faybles* *boards SS Mayko*
MAIKO!
Friends?
Poor May. Momo is probably the only one she knows who calls her by her name, xD
What next? I'm sort of expecting a kindly stranger (Spookybot) to tell Elliott that Roko has quit her job and is at a loose end. Why not be a good neighbour and spend some time with her and help her sort out her next move? Oh... and why don't you bring along some of your best fresh-baked bread? "Oh, and you won't remember us or this conversation. Bye!"
If you have a hotdog, maybe get Ollie some iced water or something?
Roko + May = FRIENDS!
The answer to Roko's question in panel 4 is 'yes' and also that this tells her a lot about May.
I'm still so amazed. Jeph has created such a rich world that he can go anywhere in it and do awesome things whenever. It's like I want him to write about ALL his characters ALL the time. I'm always wondering about the characters not getting panel time. I'll bet Sweet Tits and Steve have been hanging out for months. Unfortunately, Jeph has only one left hand.
Why are you surprised Roko? May isn't the easiest person to like for nothing.
Good for Roko. Seriously.
Hope her hand isn't sticky
Sadly, I recently learned that the real Roko, as well as inventing ridiculous AI dilemmas, has been accused of a string of sex crimes. I don't know the details, but it still sucks the fun out if nerds freaking out about future VR hells.
Awwww. Best of friends.
May reminds me of the meme featuring the dog who goes, “Hi! I’m GET-DOWN-NO! What’s your name?”
May doesn’t have a last name, does she?
Nope. She's just May - courtesy of Dale, when she was just an apparition in his glasses. <a href="https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2515" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2515</a>
Who does Basilisk look like Lady GaGa?
I don't know... Licensing agreement by her chassis manufacturer?
Headcanon: Hot Dog was originally just a dick someone started to draw on the wall.
1st panel 2nd bubble: shouldn’t Roko’s line be “Turns out I couldn’t sleep on it.”?
I assumed it was a sort of grammatical contraction. Drop the "I" like that all the time.
"Your friends call you that?" "Well, kinda. I *answer* to 'Goddammit'. 'Hey, Fucker' is more something I'm likely to call them..."
I work in I.T. so I'm conditioned to respond when people utter things like "shit" "fuck" and "goddammit" at random
Agh, Roko in exercise gear.
May, Roko, Clinton, Elliot, Brun .... that’s not a ship, it’s a fleet...
I fleet it
Friendship Tiers Stage 1: name Stage 2: buddy, pal, chum, or some other casually affectionate term Stage 3: shithead, asshole, etc. Stage 4: typically romantic pet names like "honey" or "babe" Stage 5: calling them "babe" and "you absolute motherfucker" in the same sentence
"Babe, you absolute motherfucker" is a complete sentence, just one that relies a lot on context.
A hot dog is a sandwich.
A hot dog has TWO pieces of bread around it...oof.
No, because then it would be a sandwich.
HOT DOG
HOT DOG
