I did, too! The wall cracks and rubbish strewn about don't look very VIP. Which, I suppose, is the joke :D
Tom Wells
Still can’t get it to zoom. Using patreon app. Will have to try browser I guess.
Bill Silvia
At first I thought they were stuck in the line outside and had been there so long they hand-made a "VIP Room" sign.
Dalmeir
Thanks!
BookBeard
Yay asked nicely. https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5369
Yelling Bird
I mean... yeah.
Clifton Royston
Roko is here for the Emotional Education of Yay.
Lars Gottlieb
Patreon have made 'improvements'. Means I have to open the image in a new tab to see everything, but at least that's an option and they don't require one to dig into the dev tools for that - yet.
Dalmeir
How did they get to the VIP lounge, did I miss something?
Ísabel Pirsic
I could imagine the emissary of the Giant Ai Squid might react unexpectedly fearful or apprehensive regarding the AI Architheutis.
Leak
So you took your work home with you?
Kurtis S Whittington
Usually I have to click on the image to 'open' it, then I can zoom in on it. This being the practice both on web or on the iOS app. If you aren't able to open it that way, there might be something wrong with your browser or app. Might be worth checking extensions or updating your blocklists if you have them (or disable them temporarily and see if it fixes it).
BookBeard
Possibly because its existence only started 20 minutes ago when Yay called to reserve it and the bartender scrounged up a sharpie.
legobil
Drinks, cleaning liquid, the sky is the limit. Yay seems to be unperturbed by it, and considering their sensor array, it can’t be that bad, right…?
Bagge
I look forward to see how they fare with part 2 of the plan: "Befriend the single most friendly person in the club, who actively tries to befriend everyone." My guess is... that it will be entertaining
Amelia Lewis
The probably-a-condom-wrapper on the floor next to a sanguinary puddle is a bit disturbing (although it could be a puddle of oil of some sort, or even a puddle of rust rather than containing iron compounds in circulatory system fluid).
Tom Wells
Off topic…. But why can’t I expand the comic anymore. Sometimes the text is too small and I have to expand it to read but that feature is gone?
legobil
The fact that Spookybot consider Moray to be The Cubetown Avatar is wonderfully hilarious. We are in for a treat when they meet!
legobil
I bet the personnel at the club is only vaguely aware of its existence.
legobil
And look how fancy the fence is!
enchantedsleeper
They would either ADORE or HATE each other xD So hard to decide.
enchantedsleeper
NB pretty sure Yay still uses they/them pronouns, even though there was one strip where Roko used she/her that makes it a bit less clear
Clifton Royston
VIP? That's more than 5 P!
Bagge
"Yes, that will make you a very important person, sure! Of course."
Matthew Van Gangelen
Looks like this place needs a mister handy.
legobil
Like, the fanciest thing about the VIP room is the VIP fence. Which is hilarious.
Guilherme Monteiro
Marbled for her pleasure
Brooks Moses
Possibly she does know literally everything going on but is still finding it boring because the people she wants to acknowledge her are not acknowledging her.
Bagge
I just can't stop laughing at how much Yay managed to fuck up a plan that literately just was "go to the club"
BookBeard
Yay doesn't need to break the law to spy on the main room. Christopher is in there, which means it's probably all being live-streamed anyway.
Ye Olde Phart
Unacceptable!
Ye Olde Phart
Probably reeks of hydraulic fluid instead.
Drazi
Roko told her no
Andrea Andrew
Dang it. Who confessed first?
Spike McLarty
I love the QC AIs, although they seem exactly like humans with artificial bodies… but how does super stealth hacker Yay sit in the same building as a robot club and not know literally everything going on in the main room? There’s no wireless traffic between all those AIs?? There’s no clubnet? That just seems crazy. Why would they ALL be relying exclusively on audible human speech?
legobil
What a mood. What an environment. This might be my favorite QC in a long time. And that is saying something, considering all the high quality comics Jeph puts out non-stop.
Leak
Eh, going by the looks of it - if this were a human club, it'd reek of P... D:
Magic Beans
But if you recruit other Important People, doesn’t that make you even more Important?
Rabbit
Lol, Yay is totes Tahani Al-Jamil.
Not that Patrick Foltz
Sven would normally hang out there when he is at the club, he gave it it's initial VIP-ness! I'll see myself out.
BookBeard
Roko's internal monologue: "Ugh... I gave up my evening with a fresh loaf of marbled rye for this?"
William Cole
Next to what looks like a condom wrapper. Covering all the "fluids" bases.
Johnny Brainwash
"What's the point of the VIP lounge if there's no P's to see us being VI?" -Larry Kenobi
BookBeard
Oil is blood for robots though, so basically yes.
Michael Phillips
I figured she was along for preemptive damage control or at least to be able to start damage control immediately after the damage happened.
David Durant
Didn't Yay make a whole thing out of being surreptitious before arriving and insisting on being seen as a VIP? It's almost like they don't really know _what_ they want...
Shawn K. Younkin
Yay has always had a bit of gremlin in them.
Carrie
🤘🤣🤘
Doug DeJulio
VIP = Vainglorious, Ignorable Poopyheads?
alphanor
I take it from this that Yay is not too good at recognizing irony yet, even if the irony is not deliberate.
Thisguy
Oil probably.
Jono Hayward
This strikes me as extremely Culture. In a truly egalitarian society you can be Very Important if you want but others will probably shun you. Love it when Jeph brings back the Banks ❤️
Daryl Sawyer
I think I know the purpose of the VIP room.
Sean Kinlin
Is that a pool of blood on the floor? 😨
Andrew
Tape the VIP sign to Yays back!
Sean Kinlin
But it's got an official sign and everything!
Sleepy John
Vindicative Isolated Personality room.
Yelling Bird
That room really takes me back. I went to bars like that in college, After I graduated I did security for a few entertainers in bars like that, and now my place kinda looks like that.
Damian
It does seem like they make sure to not have more than one seen outside at once.
Olaf
They already did, but Jeph thought it wasn't a Very Important Makeout Session.
Sammitch
Bar Owner, on the phone: "VIP room? Uhh... yeah sure, why not? Yeah you can rent it."
Czarzhan
If the two of them are going to sit alone in a room, they could have done that at Roko's place, and it would have been cleaner.
ValdVin
And a pittance at a Kinko's for a sign that looks, if not Very Important, at least Important.
Tudza
Just make a belt from part of the velvet rope and wear it as a portable VIP area.
Drazi
Yay does have more than one body, yes? Or do they not allow them to leave the house?
Rich Holmes
Seems to me Yay could stay in the room *and* go downstairs.
SilverbackRon
Then again, the whole thing about being a Spookybot is that you don't let anyone know how important you really are.
Holly Nelson
If they just VACUUMED the VIP room and picked up the trash, it might get more use. Just sayin'.
Doc Gumby
That is the WORST VIP room ever.
Shawn K. Younkin
If no one knows how important you are, are you really that important?
Fart Captor
They should stay a bit longer to be safe and just make out to pass the time
Tannerbot
Is Yay somehow siphoning off Liz's gremlin nature?
Simon Green
And what a wild ride she's having
Taigan
The “VIP Room” is clearly a space set aside to keep the pretentious out of circulation.
Miyaa
GDI Jeph. I will send you a bill for cleaning my iPhone!
Wynn Donivan
*them
Carrie
🤣😂 Ego subversion room?
alphanor
Yay likes being Very Important! It's very important to them. For Roko, not so much.
ValdVin
Just offscreen: Homer Simpson is entrusted to provide safekeeping for a bee in a jar.
