Yet

I would think it would be more like Pintsize gives a weird virus to the toaster. :)

Miyaa

Roko would be like “you call that bread? This… this is really manly bread.” As she displays a huge French baguettes twice as thick and long as the Subway cakes they call “bread.”

Valraven

I'm calling it now- Pintsize gets a weird virus from the Toaster and has to be hauled over to Union Robotics.

Mod Zero

He has/owns one, it's just that it turned out to be incompatible with the body.

Robin Wyatt

Honestly surprised pintsize doesn’t have a giant dong attachment

Asking the real questions

Jax

Serious question: Does Marten own more than one pair of underwear.

jimbo

finally, bread is wielded as an effective erotic metaphor. roko will be pleased

AlexKorobeiniki

FUCK YES BEMBO

Ace

Given that Marten didn't know why the toaster has a USB port, the toaster is clearly being powered some other way, presumably by being plugged into the wall, which means that it's not being powered by Pintsize. Either it's charging him, or he's just giving it commands.

David Pipes

It's just rye humor.

Byron

Bembo!!!

Kevin Jordan

That's some very dark toast... Someone likes the charcoal setting...

Michael Keogh

Robot nudity! YAY!!! Bet that toast is already buttered…

Kitchen spot for phone charging! Love that pintsize is the one who found it

Drakoo Dreamer

Does he have a usb cable that comes out of him or is that a plug he can plug into?

Captain Button

No, I'm a muffin man.

glynch42

Merry Christmas, Jeph!

Does anyone want some toast? https://youtu.be/LRq_SAuQDec

Mark

I just assumed that Pintsize was controlling the toaster, not charging it or it him.

Matt Pedone

I'm not sure he was charging. I think he was "charging", if you know what I mean, wink wink, nudge nudge.

Chris Crowther

I don't think even USB C Power Delivery can supply enough power for a toaster and I suspect could only manage a trickle charge on an AI (it tops out at 20V @ 5A, so 100W theoretical maximum). Although it's entirely plausible that USB has advanced considerably in QC universe...but then I'd be worrying about the current carrying capacity of the cable shown.

Matthew Van Gangelen

I feel like charging pintsize and toasting bread at the same time on a single device would overload a circuit breaker somewhere but I’m not sure about the maths on that. Also I’m less familiar with how American electricity systems work.

Could be a USB dick, easily detachable

Bagge

That expectant smile!

Jonah Eisenstock

I forgot who Bembo was. I am properly ashamed and overjoyed to be reminded.

Chelsea

Yesssss Bembo returns!

Freedom

It's so you can plug it into your computer and use the plunger as an extra spacebar

William Cole

"burned the toast"

William Cole

I recently saw catalog copy for a toaster with **34** different bread settings!

Shane Wegner

False! USB and USB 2.0 cap out at 5V and 2.5 watts. 2 slice toasters draw between 800 and 1500 watts. That’s three orders of magnitude off! Fie on this scientific inaccuracy. The sentient robots are fine tho.

giacomo vaghi

The return of Sarah and Raven

Carl Fink

"Devil's Fart"? Yeah, that would appeal to Pintsize.

Carl Fink

Isn't Bembo the barbarian character?

Michael Chui

That's not toast. That's ash with memories of gluten development.

Jax

He's livestreaming this to Roko's feed right?

Dan Curtis

The only thing I have an issue with is how burnt that toast is.

MultiKoopa

in a world where AI have humanoid bodies? of course

Carrie

Awesome and hilarious!! 🤘😂🤘

Joe

blackened & burnt?? so he likes Starbucks I guess.

Lucas Werkmeister

they must have some OP USB standards over in the QC universe, because I don't think even the highest currently spec'd USB power delivery levels are enough to run a toaster... those things eat a lot of watts ^^

Mad Marie

My bet is it’s not burnt; it’s just pumpernickel. (Which Pintsize gets because he likes the name)

Mad Marie

Toast is Host

Todd Ellner

He's shtupping the toaster, isn't he?

Photon

Inquiring minds want to know: which is the Host and which the Client?

Sean

Reminds of the Christmas Tree Cannon, where the interviewer asked the cannoneer, "and what is the sense in that?" and he answered "I ask myself that".

Michael Boettger

A barbie doll, IIRC.

Michael Boettger

In a future strip, paleoanthropolgists will unearth some ancient human remains in a cave on the mountain that overlooks the town.. Benbo.

Summer Sudbrink

He likes his toast like he likes his coffee.

Michael Boettger

You know, I hadn't thought of that. But I assume Roko has better taste than that.

Logan Nix

panel 3 pintsize looks SO proud of himself and yknow what? im proud of him too :)

James Dore

BEMBO BEMBO BEMBO

Thisguy

I think that was the implication.

Elizabeth Bear

Of course he burned the toast

kupo

That thought gives new meaning to the phrase "I can't believe it's not butter"...

Douglas E. Smith

Now toast ejaculate is in my head, never to leave. Thanks, Pintsize/Jeph.

kupo

I'm not entirely sure why but I'm having flashbacks to May saying "I'm like a f#cking Ken doll!".

Jax

Did pintsize just give that toaster an orgasm?

Rodrigo Ourcilleon

Fuck Yeah Bembo!

Joseph Bonnar

BEMBO! BEMBO! BEMBO! BEMBO! BEMBO! BEMBO!

Sean Kinlin

Yes, Jeph changes things up by having Steve eat an omelette and toast!

Shawn K. Younkin

BEMBO NEVER LEFT!! Woot!!

Pete Hanson

I had an espresso maker once that had to be rebooted every few months. No USB ports, though.

Dev

Given Pintsize's inclinations with bread I feel like we basically just walked in on him having sex.

Dev

Don't kinkshame him

Yelling Bird

I FUCKED A TOASTER ONCE! IT WAS LIKE TALKING TO RANDY! SLIGHTLY AMUSING, BUT MOSTLY PAINFUL!

Absentia

One question answered, but so many more questions created.

Absentia

Honestly, i wouldn't be surprised if that particular feature was custom ordered.

George Passantino

Pintsize is doing a little bit of pen-testing.

Andrea Andrew

Nice Robot Nudity. If only we could see May, Bubbles, Yay, and Roko naked too.

George Passantino

V excited about the return of Bembo

Tannerbot

I love that Marten'a face is both, "this is new" and, "this again?"

Hugh Eckert

Yay, Bembo!

George Bias

Ya burned the toast, Pintsize

Ed Marshall

Miyaa

So according to a Reddit thread about Subway’s toasters: “It’s a diagnostics port the manufacturer uses this to update the firmware, check for errors, and run diagnostics on the toaster oven.” So maybe Pintsize was running diagnostics, which probably is a euphemism for AI/Robot sex for all we know.

BobC

I was wondering about Pintsize's plug gender. Then I realized it's probably magnetic. You know, for attaching other accessories.

Everything has a usb port in it now. The Guinness pump I'm my local pub has some so you can charge your phone while at the bar 😂

Miyaa

Shouldn’t Pintsize be making toast for Steve?

Miyaa

Eww

Sammitch

Dongle.

Adam with two As, a D, and an M

All those concerned a new body would change Pintsize...

Adam with two As, a D, and an M

BEMBO!

Chris Keiser

Super psyched for BEMBO son of CREMBO

Robert Wrigley

It's to set up your toaster toast profiles, allowing you visualize element heat output by time, so as to extract the perfect toastedness of your artisanal bread. ... You don't just toast your bread any old way...do you?

Leak

Well, judging by the color of the toast that toaster is now well and truly fucked...

Ralf Paul

Hold your horses! Ending 2021? And on the 22nd no less?! This is madness! Unless... Will all remaining strips have robot nudity from here on out?

KingAtticus

Well at least we can leave 2021 with one question answered. Which one? You decide!

Adam Friedlander

hell yes more Bembo

Hope

The more things change....

Captain Button

He isn't a criminal. Well, not a *convicted* criminal...yet.

Adam Roebuck

AWW YISS MOAR BEMBO! Love that guy <3

Captain Button

SON OF CREMBO

Orion Rhine

This body is only temporary until the FBI clears the custom one he ordered. It's been a long and arduous process for the agent assigned.

Emmy P.

Technically, he and Rokko had a threesome with that toaster.

Simon Green

But if I knew what it was for, it wouldn't be as much fun to plug it!

Bill Silvia

Why was May's shitty body censored but Pintsize's shitty body isn't?

Fart Captor

Kinda surprised Pintsize still hasn't attached the metal dick he commissioned from Faye Or has she not finished adding the balls to it

Chauncey

I adore that shit eating grin of Pintsize. I need more of it in my life.

Prezo

Anyone notice in panel 1 that martin's mouth is the same colour as his pants?

Andrew L Butula

I'm deeply shocked that Pintsize didn't hold out for at least a human-standard number of orifices and at least one sex-tentacle.

Elberik

I'm going to assume the location of that USB port is the specific reason Pintsize got this body in particular

Andrew

It’s for receiving toast notifications of course!

Pat

Is that the one he took on his date?

Jon

I’m not gonna lie, I was worried when Pintsize got a new body. I’m so glad he didn’t change too much and he gets to appear more lol

Colin McBride

HAIL BEMBO

Orion Rhine

Classic Pintsize

JD

OMG, I'm so excited for Bembo!!!

Cody Renton
