Maybe that specific beer smells awful? Oh, right, Melon exists. Never mind.
SheepFace2000
Man I forgot how much of a douche Sven was
PostRetroism
Sven plays only Bards in D&D games, and his dick is his familiar.
PostRetroism
It's a hipster bar, you want people to notice what beer you're drinking. Or it's a honky-talk bar way outside of town that can't afford kegs and taps and all that expensive stuff.
PostRetroism
In panel 4 I can definitely hear Barney. Legend...
Chris Warren
Kinda wanted to punch ol' Sven in the mouth after panel four there.
Amanda L
Doug has a point, but then there's the fact that pouring into a glass releases more aroma, which is what the AIs would be appreciating if they ordered one, so wouldn't serving the "usual" way be the norm here anyway?
enchantedsleeper
That's what I get for relying on my own memory! Also, have we really had two timeskips? Not just the one?
BookBeard
Actually Dora and Tai were already together at that point, but certainly pre-engagement. It was at least two timeskips ago, rough estimate I'd say probably somewhere between one and two years.
Yelling Bird
Yeah, I didn't before now, but since you said it, it totally fits.
Poodie
Pop-Up venues without draft beer spigots, 12 cases of mugs and a dishwasher.
Mark Brehob
She has the money to pay him back now. I suspect that will come up. I'm curious if he'll take it. I'm happy to ship them though.
Not that Patrick Foltz
You can 'get halfway there' on personal revelations. Sven first got to 'What I'm doing isn't working for me' and then once her stepped back from the man-whore a bit he realized that there was and emptiness. Now he has finally accepted the root of the issue that he had been plastering over for years, he is lonely.
Not that Patrick Foltz
2nd Reference to 'cute blue AI' she has a name! Did I miss somehting?
Andrea Andrew
She seemed to feel something with Sven.
Not that Patrick Foltz
Don't see it happening
Guilherme Monteiro
A case of Crabs so bad, incurable, and rocking that it might as well be called Rock Lobsters at this point?
Guilherme Monteiro
The Sventsize caucus will welcome you
Ashbury Haight
Yeah, I'm fine now, got the right ones... all my glasses are the same frames, I need to put the old ones away instead of leaving them sitting around where I can mistake them for my current ones and end up driving blind. I just assumed my vision was blurry for some other reason and was like π€· what can ya do
allanfranta
It's ok to have friends outside of a damaged relationship. Take the kids to a kid's park and meet some friends you didn't know before.
allanfranta
Good friend! Keep you safe!
Dylan T
Well I do *now*.
David Paul
Not gonna lie, that really was π
Joseph Bonnar
No.
David Paul
@LH Pintsize was totally prepared to allow Marten to bone him after his breakup with Dora, so... maybe? https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1812
Uniquitous
That'd be a tough row to hoe. I don't think love is on May's to-do list.
Miyaa
Am I the only one who hears Sven as Neil Patrick Harris?
Mark
Possibly 2 if he manages to revise their take on the close-up vibe.
enchantedsleeper
So if Sven has been in therapy since the last blow-up with Dora... How long has he been in therapy for π€ Vibes-wise, it doesn't sound like THAT long, but obviously in real-world time it's been years. And in comic time by rights it should have been at least a couple of years, given that Dora got together with Tai and got engaged in that time.
enchantedsleeper
Well, now he has therapy
Stephen Wells
He does get huge royalties from his hit song "Just me an' my spirochaetes".
Richard
That's called a hah-nia
Bagge
Take up boating, hang out with Steve
Sammitch
Marigold caught wind of a goo girl, and no force on earth could stop her getting to that club. May comes along to watch the show.
panpolypuff
May's gonna walk in soon, and Sven's gonna confess to her.
BobC
Oh. So THAT explains my two hernias! Good to know.
Yelling Bird
Ahh, quality over quantity. I've only been with a handful of ladies, but those I was with, I was with a LOT. Personally, I find it more fun once you've learned what a partner likes. Also, I just said "a handful of ladies" and I find that funny because it sounds like the title of an 80's cock-rock album.
TheCaptainTrout
I mean, he actually had sex with women unlike any Tate incel fans. So not sure applicable to that group
Sarah Valentine
There may only be one joke, but there's so many fun variations of it!
Sarah Valentine
"What has that left me with?" Gonorrhea? Chlamydia? A case of Crabs so bad and incurable that it might as well be called Lobsters at this point? Take your pick!
Minzoku Bokumetsu
Being lonely in a marriage is worse than being lonely while single, so sorry for you
Minzoku Bokumetsu
plus how many STDs?
Matthew Van Gangelen
My confidence overfloweth.
BookBeard

Doug DeJulio
Someone who's in a bar for a different species, I suspect.
Magic Chopstick Games
Not to be confused with Miranda Sex Garden
darklion
Pardon me if I'm wrong, but I thought that was where we last saw him at? If anything, it feels like he regressed to less self-awareness.
Dean Reilly
Who drinks their beer straight from the can in a bar?
William Cole
Omniscient Inner Marten: "A clown nose & some rotting watermelon."
William Cole
Alternate Inner Marten: "Herpes?"
Samuel Fout
Sven is a case study for all the zoomers on that Tate bs
Katie Spina
That's what I was thinking of too π€£ glad somebody said it
Drazi
Ah, sounds like a good song topic.
William Cole
Can he make tugboat noises?
LH
there's really only the one potential joke
LH
the real question is if Sven is Pintsize's type!
BookBeard
That was before the time skip, so at least a few months.
SilverbackRon
I honestly feel bad for Sven, he has had a massive change in his life since he dated Faye (and then blew that up with his own stupidity). For the first time he saw what could be, but was drawn back by what was familiar (well, his DICK is familiar). Anyhow, I think he might have actually been finding a connection with May but his better nature made him decline once he had helped her buy a new body. I wonder if I he will reconsider that. He might try what he tried with Faye, just reappearing around May and see how she reacts. Perhaps if SHE is the one to initiate, he might go for it? Ahhh, who are we kidding? He is leaving here with a lovely lady, be she human or AI. That is my bet.
BookBeard
But is Pintsize really Sven's type? I mean... can you imagine Sven being in a relationship with a blue AI with a criminal background that enjoys horrifying pornography and hides the fact that they actually care for people behind crude jokes and sexual innuendo? oh... wait...
SilverbackRon
Best of luck to you, Zig.
Tim Keating
I have always had it in my mind that they get together at Dora & Tai's wedding... should that blessed day ever arrive.
SilverbackRon
We did have that time jump of unspecified length.
SilverbackRon
That was the best pretend date ever.
Green
I'm expecting folks to really pull their weight tonight and deliver upon us all the potential jokes Marten could have made in this moment.
Andrea Andrew
So lonely, his hair grew back uneven. Seriously, I hope he reveals that he might be in love with May.
BookBeard
Sven: "What has that left me with?" Inner Marten: "Nothing a round of penicillin wouldn't clear up AAYYYYYYYYY"
dizzy ditzy
Time to reestablish that connection with the cute blue AI then
Sean Kinlin
Marten finds Real Sven to be pretty unreal.
Morgan
Because for as much as it is reasonable for Sven to feel lonely after not forming any real meaningful emotional connections over the past who-knows-how-many-years, he's also complaining about how much it sucks that he's been having, and I quote, "tons of sex with all kinds of beautiful women".
Buck Caldwell
Look up "Projekt Melody" - she's the next best thing.
Logan Nix
I remember Sven and Hanners having a nice platonic dynamic
Logan Nix
Sven talking about his feelings is the ultimate irony. He's a notorious womanizer who avoids emotional connection like the plague, historically
Logan Nix
Several years in real time, a few weeks in QC time... maybe. I could be guessing.
darklion
i must have forgotten the dynamic between these two. why is Marten struggling not to laugh?
Zig Justice
Hah! Not likely. I guess I should have qualified it by saying "married, and also an introvert with extreme social anxiety". But! I DO have video games!
Alacrity Fitzhugh
feewings... nothing more than feewings...
ValdVin
Only if Pintsize wears his Little Black Dress in front of Sven.
Shawn K. Younkin
Miranda Sexbot! I need to know more!
Zig Justice
It's not. Working on a way out, but due to child custody laws in Japan, I have to wait until 2026.
Ashbury Haight
No, the extent of the incident was my friend telling me I was reading it wrong which made me realize I was wearing an old pair of glasses with a prescription several years out of date, to which my friend said they would drive next time we went somewhere because they didn't trust me anymore lol
M. R.
Sounds like a polycule might be in your future
Miyaa
Ooh, like itβs a lime twist on the odd couple trope.
ArtemisFolly
Sounds like a not-great marriage.. my condolences.
Rhyon Ingalls
If memory serves, the sneeze is when you're being talked about, the bloody nose is when your'e overwhelmed by something sexy, in anime language
Todd Ellner
He ain't wrong. There's a difference between getting your dick wet and having the emotional connection most of us need.
Emmu Lah
Did you figure it out only after ramming their car with your car for mozzarella slander?
Emmu Lah
It is a threat AND a promise π
Miyaa
Now I want Sven to move to Cubetown.
Todd Ellner
Promise?
Jim Sharkey
I think enough time has passed since blue AI girl got her new body that it's no longer weird. Hit her up!
ValdVin
Marten's biting his tongue so hard it'll bleed.
schmod
Oh no. Sven and Pintsize are going to get together, aren't they?
Ashbury Haight
Does that background robot's shirt say "mozzarella"? I had a whole incident earlier today with a bumper sticker that said "mozzarella sticks" which I misread as "mozzarella sucks"
Zig Justice
I can relate with being lonely, because I am. I can't relate with having a satisfying sex life, because I am married.
Miyaa
Meanwhile, Dora gets an unexpected bloody nose and Tai β who speaks anime β realizes someone else has just talked about her.
William Cole
MOZZARELLA!
Emmu Lah
This is a threat
Emmu Lah
If Sven moves to cubetown I will lose my godsdamned mind
Jonathan Taves
Poor guy. It must be rough.
Michael
Sven isn't wrong, at the end of the day he has no one.
Doc Gumby
I'm sure Sven will get all the understanding that Marten could possibly muster up...
