I do not miss Yelling Bird at all. Padma though. I do miss Padma.

bring back yelling bird
what kind of institutions do your friends work at Jeph; post docs are much comfier, this is grad student work. Then sam would get yelled at for not already knowing to get coffee and missing a learning opportunity
Somebody Else
Man, they really need something more comfortable than that table if they're going to keep getting walk-ins for lower body repairs. So far we've seen a dodgy ankle, a ... missing butt ... and a broken leg, and they all just gotta perch awkwardly on a tiny workbench?
Joseph Bonnar
No, Rokwinsom.
Bill Hall
Panel 4, Sam obviously recognizes Faye’s expression should be categorized under “13 seconds from Grim.”
Dylan T
EMUS ARE FUCKIN SCRAPPY, MAN
Rich Holmes
Five bucks says "the gentleman" disappears within a week but "greenie" becomes a regular character as part of the gradual roboticization of QC. Or so one can hope anyway.
Daryl Sawyer
Yelling bird was stupid. It was awesome.
Churchill (formerly TeaBear)
No Yelling Bird? Aw, Dammit. :(

Someone <i>did</i> comment on her blushing... about 6 hours before you did. No one else really felt a need to after that one.
Shawn K. Younkin
Hahahaha...I would say you're overthinking it, but Sam DOES have a way to just FALL into trouble.
I get the impression the Jeph universe is one where robots can be anatomically correct in all ways but lack a nose for stylistic reasons. I'm sure there is a version of pintsize that is able to do the things pintsize wants to do.
"If that model has no nose, I am curious what it *does* have that would warrant privacy..." oh, yes, a *preference*. A sense of embarrassment (well represented, btw.) That would do it. Obviously, anatomy isn't really the point. It's just common courtesy, and not for someone else to decide.
James Dore
Uhh, yeah that's a broken leg alright *shudder*
Sleepy John
Greenie is upset because she’s wearing oil-stained underwear. Should have listened to Mom....
Dean Reilly
Sending Sam out on her own with a riled stealth emu in the area seems like a bad idea.
Evgeniy Semyonov
Why no one comments about the green bot's blush in panel two? Of course it could be just because they don't want to undress here, but on the other hand - Bubbles makes a very intense impression on other AIs, that's for sure.
It's right there, don't you see it?!
Bagge
But... where is the Emu?
Daniel Burnett
Hope Sam and Winslow meet while Sam gets coffee
Nothing could scare me more than the second coming of Yelling Bird. I'm still reeling from some of those tweets, Jeph!
Kerin Schiesser
Well.... he DOES seem a little interested, but... What about Winslow? He seemed just a little intrigued by her while they were bonding over emu listening skills....
Joseph Bonnar
I need to mention this: If the green bot stays in the strip long enough to become a regular, who do we ship her with? Her coffee drinking friend?
Creepy Cat Lady
ugh I love the characters in this comic so much I can hardly handle it. <3
BobC
The real intern "game" is to give them only $5 for $8 in beverages.
OldGoat
Broken, or bent. I'm assuming it's some kind of metal alloy. I just flashed on Bub's removing the dermal cover and muscle analog material, taking a torch to it, heating it cherry red, then straightening it - all while the patient looks on and someone (Sam perhaps?) swoons.

And if you want a little humour, and maybe a reason or two to envy/pity/ignore any postdocs you may know, check out this article: https://www.sciencemag.org/careers/2013/11/postdoc-special-kind-hell

And I like how in the second panel, her leg does indeed appear to be broken. Bubbles may need to remove her trousers using scissors.

I am now curious how the shop is actually laid out, and how much privacy it affords the, um... patients. I mean, when they first moved in, wasn't it little more than one big open room?
awgiedawgie
Good catch. Yes, she was.
Hugh Eckert
The emu is Yelling Bird's Final Form.
Andrew Mitchell
I'm glad it wasn't Yelling Bird.
Pat
Was she in a skirt earlier?
Shawn K. Younkin
That is one of the best fucking things I have ever read!! Hahahahahah!!! Thanks for that.
Shawn K. Younkin
LOL- the guys realization that....yes, I need to leave for this, coffee WOULD be good.
Matt Grayson
We were called schlepps.
Bubbles in panel 2... 😍
Captain Button
They are now in a wacky mismatched buddy movie, "Emu On The Run."
Matt
nice fakeout with the title, there, Jeph
Pat Allan
Emus don't muck around. We in Australia had a war with them once… and they won. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emu_War
Andrea Andrew
I love how the Android lady blushes at the notion of removing her pants, and Faye gets her assistant out of the room. LOL
SpookyPenguin
millenial interns represent
Arraine Siefert
I was so sad when there was no yelling bird. I miss yelling bird so much 😭
Erin Hartshorn
Also, I am curious what effect the tea will have on her in this state.
Scott Vogel
I was actually expecting Yelling Bird.
Czarzhan
He's waiting outside, keeping the bird out of trouble. (She's fine with him: He's not /studying/ her.)
Erin Hartshorn
Winslow didn’t come with them? Or is he still talking to the emu? … Maybe the emu kicked her because she tried to move the emu away from Winslow?
Czarzhan
The thing about the emu strike was that she never saw it coming.
Max D S
The Emu Strikes Back? A thread to our softest boi?
Michael Boettger
Wait, where was Winsliw when this happened?
gatherer818
I've never seen a place where intern isn't pronounced "gopher" 😛
Joel Bateman
AND THEN THEY FU- wait
Michael Boettger
The Emu strikes back!
