Hmmm. Not sure if it's Fan Rage time or Intrigue time. Or maybe "What the Eff" time...

"Ha! Get it? 'Cause Nice Guys aren't human, and deserve to be murdered. Oh, what, the plot? No, fuck that. More Sisterhood nonsense!"

So…

Fan Rage time?

And every single one of them is wearing those pseudo fedoras.

Methinks the sinfest forums might have been raided recently.

And some good bits from the usual source of angery jerkoffs who sometimes have good points:

1. How come all T Vs lead to an alternate dimension? You’d think Satan would look into that, especially since he never uses that himself and needs to use drones to spy on people.

2. Actually, speaking of drones, why is Satan making them in the first place? He never acts on any of this information, never arresting people or anything. The only thing he’s done is smear the Sisterhood in the media. Does he have new evil plans that require an army of spy drones? Shouldn’t we know that?

3. How is that girl killing the robots? That’s a video game controller she’s hitting them with, not a real blade. Are these Iron Man 3 style robots?

4. If these are supposed to be fedora-wearing dudebros, why aren’t they fat and bearded, in accordance with the stereotype? Is Tats afraid of offending fat activists?

Number three there in particular stands out to me. That this is already a Wiimote peripheral that is used by swinging it around like a mace. That ALONE would cause no end of damages to a living room, but now Tats is telling us it actually doubles as an actual weapon! What parents would let their kid have such a thing!? Aside from the lasers, not even the freaking SISTERHOOD have anything that potentially lethal!

They look like Dad Egbert's evil twins.

None, it is N'arm time. Laugh. Laugh at how stupidly this message is being done.

x5 Why so mad? After all, they're just robots. Sound familiar? Without minds or personalities. Or is it different when the robots are male?

Mostly I'm wondering what he's building these for. The fembots were obviously an actual product he was selling, but I'm not sure how well these ones would sell. Are they meant to be his personal army of dudebros with laser eyes or what?

Can we make it a point that when you have more than 3 or , you just say @ [name]? Makes things a lot easier.

EDIT: Also, totally agreeing with you that they're just robots. If she wants to vent frustration on them, go for it.

I'd say he was ranting more at the minor hypocrisy here. The average Fembot is pretty mindless but we're expected to sympathize, while the Douchebots are just as mindless and they're presented as intimidating. That said, yeah. They're freaking robots. Smash em up I say!

My own personal standard is to multiply after 3 and then just to name after 7

Will point out that there's no reason to believe yet that they exist anywhere but the video game.

Except the enemies in the videogame were Dudebro zombies.

The thing is, I don’t even think that game IS devil corp. A title like “Dudebro Apocolypse seems like something the sisterhood would make.

With that logic, we could come to some interesting conclusions. There is a factory in this game that is putting out Dudebro robots. This factory is inside a sisterhood game. What if this is implying that the sisterhood is in fact manufacturing the problem, instead of actually solving it. Or you could see it as the sisterhoods actions actually causing people to become more dudebro and making their own enemies.

But then I remember Tats wrote this comic, so most likely its just indoctrination, that factory is probably labeled devil-tech and that you must fight against any and all things against sisterhood teachings.

Until he shows the 'evils' of video games that target men, I think you're reading too much into it. Just hope that Bob, Dot, and Enzo show up and smack her around a little for lols.

The Maverick-finding game is afoot!

FINALLY... they're back to the plot.

At least until the next time someone drops a shiny noisy object or something.

Anothe good bit from SWT: So, professional wrestling has been redneck anime for years, now, and has a lot in common with webcomics. It’s generally retarded, ego-driven, and full of exaggerated characters, and having people and viewpoints look good based on who’s sucking the author’s dangly bits.

But when I learned of an event in 2006 where Shawn Michaels teamed up with God to fight Vince Mc Mahon in a No Holds Barred tag match, and the team with God on it lost, I thought that that was a high point of ludicrous arrogance. Even a webcomic author wouldn’t be so arrogant to have their Mary Sue character literally beat up god.

I didn’t think that for long.

Yeah, not at all relevant to today's comic, but I thought this was kinda funny.

Yay! The Sisterhood saved the world! Don't you love them? Aren't they the best?

Also, Vince never actually beat up God. God never got into the match. The whole thing was just an excuse for Vince, who had devolved into a complete psychopath, to ruin Shawn Michaels' life. But, hey, yeah, stupid racist meathead steroid junkies. Whatever.

In Vince's defense, he's gotten beat up many, many times and even had his daughter betray him to the man who "got her drunk" in order to marry her, costing him a match.

Vince does stuff, but he isn't to ego-driven to never make himself the big loser.

EDIT: There was also that WWE vs. ECW & WCW thing that happened. Vince was the leader of the WWE side and that side had its loses as well as it wins. Vince and his writing team is LEAGUES above Tats.

Um…okay. That happened.

So much for my theory.

So, again, a bunch of those drones went right past Xanthe. Patriarchy enemy number one was right in sight, and they just went right past her without even so much as a potshot. WHY!? She was RIGHT THERE!

See? This is a good filler/break from the plot. It's funny.

Her trike has an antidrone cloaking shield.

And yes, the latest was funny.

And again, there is no "the plot". There are many plots, one of which is Squig and Slicks new jobs.
