Marigold is *adorable* in the last panel! 💛

Dustin

Wasn't that a bit in a Walter Mathau movie (in his later years)? "Pickle is funny. Tomato. That isn't funny."

Dustin

I dunno, I'd be up for the Brun Chronicles as well... https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3230

May knows that words with a "k" sound are funny.

Joseph Bonnar

We have a description comic of May. Now, with a new chassis a real possibility, could we get together and all beg Jeph for a new description comic of her? https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3035

Captain Button

Yes. Please think of the catgirls.

Monkeys and typewriters

"Hey fuckos" is one of my favorite genderless greetings.

So this storyline (and in general) has me wondering what AIs need in order to sustain life. May has a job and lives with Momo, Marigold, and Dale ... I assume she shares in the rent and electric bill but split 4 ways that shouldn't be too bad. There would be taxes (of course) but beyond that and possibly internet I can't think of what they absolutely require. Is May still paying off her initial body? We know from various comics that those are expensive. Are all the AIs we see with jobs actually basically indentured servants working off their equivalent of student loans? Are there exploitative AI taxes that eat just about everything they can earn leaving only just enough for small closet and a trickle of electricity unless the find a human sponsor? Am I really thinking way too much about a silly comic with robots?

Strangely enough, May's unbelieving comment is now part of my profile pic elsewhere ... :D

Martin Trebuch

I LOL'd. Hard! XD

Da Nargh!!

"Fucking Macaque"; a spiritual sequel to Yelling Bird

William Burns

"Site developed by Hooting and Flinging LLC."

Evgeniy Semyonov

Code us a site, you're macaque man Code us a site tonight Well, we're all in the mood for a charity And you've got us feelin' alright

and we all lift together

Hardly ever.

FrshYngFlw

What, NEVER?

Professor Harmless

I will have you know we spent almost two hours re sequencing that macaque's genetic code so he could write code for us!

Bagge

Good one!

Tudza

Code monkey get up, get coffee, code monkey go to job.

Bagge

Is that a slur against humans?

Jeremy Jorgensen

It's at least 12, maybe even *13*

Thomas A. Dennis

The macaque jokes write themselves.

darklion

In panel 4 her eyes should be mirrored dollar signs

Alacrity Fitzhugh

Eight plus one is infinite for sufficiently sideways values of eight.

Grace Kieser

Well, where is anyone going to find a typewriter in 2020!?

Andrew Mitchell

She's probably also pining for the fjords.

Alex Borders

Fighter jet booty?

Alex Borders

Um. This is May we're talking about. Her contributions to society are going to be mostly fascinating new swear words. Although with Sven's assistance, I wouldn't put it past her to come up with new sexual positions and/or techniques either.

Matthew Reiter

Code Monkey go to boring meeting, with boring manager Rob.

James Cooper

It does seem a little bass ackward that we don't have any form of universal health care and the solution is a GoFundMe of some sort. Especially since most people already pay into Medicare/Medicaid from their paycheck....

BobC

Holy crap. Who the hell took away the monkeys' typewriters and gave them web editors?

Grace Kieser

I love Marigold's priorities!

Nicole Hands

Ze Frank..."No, that can't be right. That's too long to be mah cock." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ4cadzCZUI

Anthony Gaglianese

I can hear the white noise and processor grinding to a halt in panel 4. We all <3 you, May

Always trust Brak's mom.

Andrea Andrew

Like our current American society.

David Durant

Very specific - I feel your pain :-)

jimbo

fighter jet body, here she comes!

Sleepy John

It's HARD to believe that something went right when you're so used to everything going wrong. It's easier to believe that the information is wrong.

Sleepy John

Code Money get up, get coffee, Code Monkey go to job...

Dave Miller

Not only Fritos, but Tab, and/or Mountain Dew!

Simon Green

... with her own *actual* F-16 to fly it in.

Miyaa

GDI

Hi Brak.

Simon Green

Marigold *has* been working out. And anyway ... what's wrong with a website coded by a monkey? Haven't you ever wanted to have macaque and eat it too?

Bonnie Fiddis

In fairness I have completely judged a website entirely based on its bad layout and it’s coding. Even if it provides an otherwise great service.

Emma Humphries

At least the gibbon wouldn't had reached for React right out of the box.

Thisguy

No, disbelief in this situation is expected. I just hope that it hits May that she will have to repay this kindness by a bit more proactive contribution to society.

Drazi

Where do i sign up to see that AI chassis?

Miyaa

Do code monkeys still like eating Fritos? Asking for a friend.

1. May's purely adorable, so less of the "goblin" stuff, bucko! and 2. I forgot what #2 was going to be.

Sven is an in-demand songwriter who gets paid like a boss, and Hanners is super loaded. There's probably enough in that fund to buy her a Philomena Model G with a custom F-16 fighter jet back tattoo and human standard genitals.

I had a hope for what May's reaction might be, but THIS is more suited to her personality! ^_^

One time I hired a monkey to take notes for me in class. I would just sit there, my mind a complete blank, while the monkey scribbled on little pieces of paper. At the end of the class the teacher said "class, I want you to write a paper using your notes." So I handed in a paper that said "hello my name is Bingo, I like to climb on things, can I have a banana? Eek! Eek!" I got an F. When I told my mom about it she said "I told you never to trust a monkey!" The end.
