Grrl Power #950 - Gob-blocked
Added 2021-06-03 10:01:01 +0000 UTCThanks so much for your support! Like, seriously, you guys.

Frix isn't reminding Prinrin that Sydney is a potential an engine of destruction because he's afraid of what she might actually do, but because it's a pretty good way to deflect her interest. I'm sure there's been more than a few women who have warded off advances by saying "My boyfriend is an ex-Navy SEAL." whether or not any part of that statement is true. Sure, they could easily say "My boyfriend is a millionaire with a 9" dick but also he's addicted to cunnilingus." and in certain situations that might even work better, but it could also spark a guy's competitive nature. Is it better to imply her guy knows fifty ways to kill with a shrimp fork? It's situational. Still, it's hard to beat "My girlfriend can cut a tank in half."
"I'm curious about your specific Navier-Lamé elastodynamic ratios" is physicist speak for "Gurl, you tight?" Also, "I want to solve for your Cylindrical Coordinate Displacement Unknowns" means "Let's get it on." Hmm. That sounds like a T-shirt Dabbler would wear.
At least, I like to think that science nerds hit on each other in ways that are really specific to their field and inscrutable to anyone else. But given the poor male to female ratio in most STEM fields, there are few salacious equation the ladies haven't heard before.
They put up with Digit's crazy inventions because despite her destroying the occasional wall, stuff like her Wall-Bot actually works, and now they can keep just ahead of the usual interior damages to the base. Keep in mind that Digit is hardly the only one in a building full of supers that damages the architecture.

2021-06-14 16:37:04 +0000 UTCDid anyone else give the Wallbot the Coolaid man's voice as he busted threw the wall? "Oh Yea!"

2021-06-04 06:18:39 +0000 UTCI'd probably wear that shirt.

2021-06-04 06:18:17 +0000 UTCJust wait until WallBot has to defend Digit, and entombs all the bad guys. Not all walls are wood and plaster.

2021-06-04 04:41:35 +0000 UTCThe amusing part for me is that the damage was to a pane of glass, so wall-bot will only be fixing its own entrance. You'd think her boss would have told her to reprogram it to use the door... Oh, wait, the chain is taut, so the anchor is embedded in the next wall. That takes some of the fun out of it...still <i>mostly</i> gonna be dealing with fixing up after itself... Hmmm First Rule of Wall-Robotics: Harm no walls. This robot is an obvious FAIL! :P

2021-06-04 00:46:23 +0000 UTCEven if you are used to poly relationships, it is bad form to use up one partner's limited time with a new one without prior arrangement!

2021-06-03 23:24:01 +0000 UTCWall-bot! Infinitely less terrifying than TR3-VR, a.k.a. "Trevor" or "The Hallway Bot of Doom!" 😅🤖💀

2021-06-03 22:41:03 +0000 UTCThank you for this; I needed a good laugh. :)

2021-06-03 19:49:07 +0000 UTCOnly fifty ways to kill with a shrimp fork? My, my, you obviously need to be more inventive!

2021-06-03 19:38:33 +0000 UTCOr put her ON a t-shirt, in that t-shirt... and that's all folks. 😏

2021-06-03 18:26:54 +0000 UTCLoad bearing columns every 5 feet, with lateral supports. You could take out a dozen of them and still not have the top five floors visit the bottom five. You do, probably need someone with laser vision, or sydney to carve a hole every time you want to open up a door...

2021-06-03 16:01:22 +0000 UTCNow I'm wondering how the architects designed the building to survive as much interior damage from super-powered and mechanical oopsies as possible.

2021-06-03 13:44:07 +0000 UTC*Ahem* I was also gonna say, before that so rudely posted with my pressing the wrong button, Sydney’s expressions here and on the prior page are really funny because you can tell she trying, but trying not to try. Good work! /:)
2021-06-03 13:30:32 +0000 UTCCan’t help but wonder what digits are on that card. Beyond contact info, perhaps some other coefficients to pique Frix’s scientific curiosity?

2021-06-03 13:29:32 +0000 UTCSoooo... Am I the only one who wants to see Pinrin in one of the “incentives”? /;)
2021-06-03 13:28:06 +0000 UTCGetting some serious Doc Brown vibes from Digit in the final panel

2021-06-03 13:10:53 +0000 UTCYou really should put dabbler in a t-shirt that says that sometime.

2021-06-03 12:31:24 +0000 UTCBest turn-down I ever got: "I'm sorry, but your penis is too big". Had me laughing for hours.

2021-06-03 12:01:25 +0000 UTCPlease tell me they’ve destroyed Latrine Bot.
Jack Ponder
2021-06-03 11:30:39 +0000 UTCI love Digit! So obliviously adorkable! Am I alone in wanting to see a spin-off of the comic in the Grrl-verse titled 'Digit and Wallbot'? Lol; I'm sure every episode ends the same way, but what fun it would be.
Michael Obert
2021-06-03 11:12:23 +0000 UTCHear it? I can feel it, I don't need to hear it.
Anton Schleef
2021-06-03 10:28:45 +0000 UTCI can hear the 'STAAAAAAAAAARE' from that panel.
Guillaume Ravoire
2021-06-03 10:11:09 +0000 UTCI love their pairing so much.
