5	----
6	* {{Eagleland}}:
7	** Pintsize at one point claims his destructive, belligerent and annoying behavior comes from his American locale settings. He does become very civil and even kind when switched to British English language settings. The characters speculate as to how much of that is real personality change and how much is Pintsize being Pintsize.
8	** Frequently invoked by the characters, with more than a bit of Western-Massachusetts "alternative" condescension.
9	* EarlyBirdCameo: Reneé is probably the one mentioned in [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1363 comic 1363]]. She is introduced in [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1845 strip 1845]], and still it takes [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1859 14 strips more]] to mention her relationship with Angus. Technically, her role in the beginning may be one, as she only gained importance and individuality much later in the comic.
10	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness:
11	** ''Marten'' of all people had the LamePunReaction in [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=21 strip 21]]. This may be directly related to the fact that Marten [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=371 became less and less]] of an AuthorAvatar as the strip went on.
12	** Oh, look, [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=238 it's the debut of the OMG Turkeys!]] Except it's actually the second Thanksgiving since the comic started and Jeph seems apologetic at how weird it is.
13	** Both Hannelore and Marigold showed pretty stark contrast to their introductions once they settled into character.
14	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1298 Momo]], who grew into being kind of prim and schoolgirl-ish.
15	* EldritchAbomination:
16	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1753 This comic]], [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1754 and the next one]].
17	** Randy [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1815 is eternal]]. Note that ''[[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1826 he really is]]''. And he's [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2352 really fucked up]].
18	* EmbarrassingCoverUp:
19	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2123 Marigold tries to not tell anyone about how the head of security likes anime]], but finds out a good lie for the circumstances of being gone for six hours is not "in the bathroom".
20	** When Hanners is helping Marigold with a budget because being a VirtualYouTuber is making more money than she expected or is comfortable with, Dora asks what the job is and Mar blurts out "NUDES. I'M SELLING NUDES." Dora has zero problem with this, but Marigold is horribly embarrassed.
21	--->'''Hannelore:''' Why on ''earth''--\
22	'''Marigold:''' I need to keep my identity a secret!\
23	'''Hannelore:''' And ''that's'' the first thing that came to mind?\
24	'''Marigold:''' My brain is trash and I live on the internet!
25	* EmbarrassingFirstName: Raven goes by her middle name because she despises her Welsh first name, [-Blodwyn-].
26	* EmbarrassingMiddleName: Marten Tiberius Reed. Or it would be, if his father wasn't such a stick in the mud.
27	* EmotionEater: The Shame Orb eats shame and [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2351 excretes microwave burritos]], Randy eats [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2352 hope]].
28	* EmptyEyes: Hannelore's eyes [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3427 go flat]] when she is avoiding engaging with Roko.
29	* EntendreFailure: When Sven gives his jacket to Hannelore:
30	-->'''Hannelore:''' ''[laughs]'' It's so big!\
31	'''Sven:''' I love it when girls say that.\
32	'''Hannelore:''' It must happen a lot! You're so tall!
33	* EnsembleCast: While the comic started focusing specifically on Marten and his array of satellite quirky women, he lost focus soon after getting together with Claire. Since then the series has widened its focus, with focus characters like Brun and Roko being multiple steps removed from Marten[[note]]Roko can be considered entirely outside of his circle, depending on how you interpret her relationship with Faye and Bubbles.[[/note]]. Generally the story focuses on characters going through an instability in their lives, such as Faye and Brun finding new jobs or Elliot and Clint's romantic arc, and let them fade to the background once they find a point of stability.
34	* EntitledToHaveYou: [[spoiler: Sven]] doesn't [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2745 really seem to understand]] [[spoiler: Faye]] turning him down. In his mind, he loves her and he's being honest, so she should like him back.
35	* EpiphanyTherapy:
36	** Discussed when Faye finally explains why she gets so defensive.
37	--->'''Faye:''' Therapy helped, but it's the equivalent of breaking your leg -- you can walk when you get out of physical therapy, but you can’t run a marathon right away. I can function as a human being right now, and even have friends, but I can't handle a relationship.\
38	'''Marten:''' Couldn't we just make out now and worry about everything else later?\
39	'''Faye:''' Sure, if you want to trade one night of fun for me freaking out, running away, and never coming back.\
40	'''Marten:''' Well shit. I was almost letting myself hope that you'd be all "Man, it sure feels good to get all that off my chest! Let's go have sex!"\
41	'''Faye''': If trauma were that easily dealt with, psychologists would work pro bono.
42	** Played straight when Hannelore comes back from a journey to find herself and had an epiphany a week into shoveling yak poop that her OCD obsessions with cleanliness didn't matter--poop was poop, it needed to be shoveled even if she was grossed out, so being grossed out didn't matter.
43	* EthicalSlut:
44	** Dora Bianchi is an excellent example, albeit one in a committed, monogamous relationship [[spoiler:until it ended]]. Still, this characteristic [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1556 reveals itself]] by her willingness to address and discuss sexual concerns. Interestingly enough, her being an Ethical Slut doesn't stop her from having relationship issues, for example an almost pathological jealousy and suspicion of any woman who may appear to be trying to steal her man, the uber-example perhaps [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1323 threatening Cosette with a broadsword]] for innocently revealing that she had a crush on Marten.
45	** Dora's brother Sven claims to be this but he frequently lies and cheats. He does start trying to clean up his act but it's a work in progress given [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1338 he had to be coerced to be honest with Faye]].
46	** ''Tai'' on the other hand is a good example of an Ethical Slut, even if she's a bit [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1603 forward when tipsy]] (and [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1688 again]] and becoming more so with every cell).
47	* EvenTheDogIsAshamed: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1631 The chibi-fied AnthroPC is]], anyway.
48	* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Marten nonchalantly (and perhaps [[HoYay slightly too enthusiastically]]) agrees with the girls on [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1770 this strip]] that [[HoYay Sven has a really great butt]].
49	* EverybodyWasKungFuFighting: Faye and Padma kick off an improvised sparring match [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1857 here]]. These are two young ladies who work in coffee shops and just met for the first time, you realise. Just don't try it [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2043 when she's drunk]].
50	* EveryoneIsBi: Nearly the entire main cast is extremely fluid with their sexual orientations. Even Steve, Marten's Alpha Male Best Bro, is apparently just three tequila shots away from making out with a guy - [[IfItsYouItsOkay or at least, Marten]].
51	* EveryoneKnowsMorse: Well, [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1912 Hanners does]] (but then, Hanners knows [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos R'lehian]]...) There's no indication anyone else understands what she's saying though[[note]]it's "Sincerely, Marten" -- there's no excuse for rude telegraphy.[[/note]].
52	* ExplainingTheSoap: Marigold to Hannelore and Angus with ''Magical Love Gentleman''.
53	* {{Expy}}: Jeph has mentioned that he designed Marigold to be essentially "an Anglicized version of Konata from ''Anime/LuckyStar''."
54	* EyesAlwaysShut: Dave, a supporting character who had a brief stint as Meena's ex-boyfriend.
55	* FaceFault: Momo, whose design is based on a generic "moe" anime character, is designed to replicate these; the classic "sweat drop" is achieved by emitting a viscous fluid from underneath the hair, and it's apparently a bitch and a half to clean out.
56	* FacePalm: Marten needs some BrainBleach after the events of 1888. [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1888 Possible NSFW]]
57	* FanDisservice: When Roko takes May to the maintenance shop to get looked over so that Roko can build a case for May deserves a body that isn't falling apart all the time, May is [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4030 sitting on the repair bench entirely naked]]...with one arm off, various cables plugged into parts of her body (including where her right ear should be) and a generally pissed-off expression on her face.
58	* FanService:
59	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1003 Jeph gives us Dora-service]] as an apology for FanDisservice three strips prior.
60	** This also occurs with [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1303 Dora, Faye, and Hanners]] for Christmas '08 and [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1676 Marigold roughly 300 strips later]], with other occasions as well.
61	** Not all the strip's fanservice froms from the girls, though; [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1565 Christmas of '09]] gives us some of Marten and Steve, while Jeph posts some of [[http://jephjacques.tumblr.com/post/1288741591/40-000-followers Sven]] on his Tumblr account after getting 40,000 followers.
62	** Jeph is rather more fond of depicting post-coital nudity between same-sex couples (e.g. Tai and Dora, Faye and Bubbles, Elliot and Clinton) than between couples of different sexes (e.g. Marten and Claire), although he meticulously deploys arm-bras, hairbras, discreet angles and even a cat to avoid prurience.
63	* FanServicePack:
64	** Marigold cleaned up significantly from her initial appearance, losing her acne, getting better hair, and becoming more curvy and voluptuous as time has passed.
65	** Lampshaded with Clinton [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3236 here]]. Compared with [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1898 his first appearance]], the difference is pretty dramatic.
66	** Aurelia Augustus went from looking like [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2805 a woman old enough to have two college-age kids ]] to looking [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4812 so young that she could be mistaken for her own daughter.]]
67	* FantasticRacism: There is some against AI, e.g. [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2721 May was refused a job, cause she's a robot, even though that was a violation of the Robot Civil Rights Act]].
68	* FemaleGaze: Early on, Faye tries to deny [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=136 she was staring at Marten's arse]].
69	* {{Fiction 500}}: Hannelore's parents, independently of one another. Her mother is a high-powered businesswoman with enough money that she could buy a restaurant on a whim just to fire a bad waiter (Hanners has to talk her out of it). Her father? Merely owns his own space station.
70	* FingerTenting: [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1693 Dale pulls off]] a classic [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Gendo Pose]], complete with ScaryShinyGlasses. It's even lampshaded in the title.
71	* FirstPeriodPanic: Hannelore Ellicot-Chatham spent most of her life living with crippling OCD and anxiety issues. When one of her friends asks her what her first period was like, she responds, "We don't talk about that day."
72	* FishingForSole: {{Invoked\|Trope}} by Marten when cautioning Claire about [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2536 fishing for compliments from Faye]].
73	* FiveSecondForeshadowing: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=758 Watch out for those stairs.]]
74	* {{Flanderization}}: A few members of the cast.
75	** Hannelore is considered to be the strongest case of this since it's combined with CharacterizationMarchesOn - the circumstances under which [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=515 she was introduced]] would be out of character for her now. It's referenced later on when Dora asks Hanners, "If you have OCD, how come you have, like, ten earrings and you smoke?". Hannelore [[HandWave handwaves]] an answer by saying, "Well, a girl has to have ''some'' glaring inconsistencies in her life", but later says that she was on very powerful meds at that time, and can just about acknowledge that it happened on her current prescriptions. The piercings are better-explained [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1404 here]].
76	** Pintsize wasn't always [[Website/FourChan /b/]] personified. He used to just be kinda silly. This may be explained by the beginning of the comic, when Marten comments on that Pintsize finally has wifi and can browse the internet as he pleases... presumably leading to the discovery of 4chan and all of its horrors, leading to how he is today.
77	** Faye herself points out that she used to be a "bitch with issues", but now that she's in counseling and getting to the root of her issues, she's "just a bitch".
78	* FlashStep: Practiced by Hanners in [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1633 this strip]], to get out of the way of an impending barf.
79	-->'''Angus:''' I've literally never seen a human being move that fast.
80	* FlatWhat:
81	** [[http://questionablecontent.net./view.php?comic=1212 By Sven.]]
82	** Faye [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1481 has]] [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1978 a couple]].
83	** Dale has a particularly good one [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2550 here.]]
84	** Marten uses the not punctuated version right [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2736 here.]]
85	** Marten, [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2787 again]], when he finds out [[spoiler:Tai graduated a year ago and never told him]].
86	** Claire’s comment during “[[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2791 another dressing montage]]”.
87	** Her reaction to [[spoiler: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2804 Marten showing up at her house.]]]]
88	* FlippingTheBird:
89	** Faye [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=324 to Pretentious Record Store Dude]] and [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=873 to Sven]].
90	** [[spoiler:Momo]] [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1631 to Angus]].
91	* FlockOfWolves: Minor example when [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1384 Angus describes his job]] as a StrawmanPolitical--he's paid to take a side in a political debate and lose. Unfortunately for him, one day...
92	-->'''Angus:''' The guy I was supposed to "debate" with was a strawman hired by the other side. We spent an hour and a half trying to lose to one another before realizing the rally had been double-booked.
93	* FlowersOfRomance:
94	** Gone wrong when Marten gets some flowers for Dora- she's allergic. [[spoiler: It's not a total loss, though- after she recovers, they take some extra time off for sex.]]
95	** When Marigold asks Dale out, not only does he say yes, he also [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2609 says he actually wanted to ask her out, showing her a small bouquet of roses.]]
96	* FluffyTheTerrible: Bubbles the combat droid. [[spoiler:Many of the details of her military service are still vague, but whatever happened greatly traumatized her.]]
97	* ForTheLulz: Pintsize's usual MO, but taken to extremes [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=936 in this guest-strip]], courtesy of [[Webcomic/SomethingPositive Randy Milholland]].
98	-->'''Pintsize''': ''BEGIN. 10 Print "Is this right?". 20 Input "N". 30 If "N" = "Yes", then LOL = none. 40 If "N" = "No", then LOL = Plenty. END.''
99	* {{Foreshadowing}}:
100	** "[[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=313 It's pretty quiet, although the lady who lives in 226 vacuums at odd hours sometimes]]." This is an actually an error, as Hannelore apparently [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1224 lives in 33]]. The mistake is the room number, as [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=533 Hannelore's introduction]] has a CallBack to the mentioning of her vacuuming at odd hours.
101	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=685 This strip]] [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=175 and this one]] foreshadow the [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=720 VespAvenger]].
102	** [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=161 This exchange]]:
103	--->'''Faye:''' That is just one of the many funny stories involving my father.\
104	'''Marten:''' [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor You'll have to tell me the rest sometime.]]\
105	'''Faye:''' Bribe me with ice cream and I will!
106	** Note the record that Faye is checking out in [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1537 this strip]]. It foreshadows into [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1737 this strip]], which foreshadows [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1739 this strip]]. [[spoiler:Which Toto song a character likes most, or indeed, whether a character likes Toto at all, seems to indicate compatibility. Thus, Marten and Dora have broken up due to their incompatible personalities, while Angus and Faye broke up for a different reason.]]
107	** [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1658 A dream foreshadows]] Momo's new chassis, right down to the [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2002 pigtails]].
108	** Angus disappears from Coffee of Doom a while, then reappears in strip 1363 after [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1363 breaking up with a girl with a grudge against CoD who "practically has a doctorate in belittling people."]] She turns out to be [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1859 Faye's Secret Bakery doppelgänger.]]
109	** There's also [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=762 this strip]] that foreshadows Faye and Sven hooking up.
110	** [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1845 The introduction of the bizzaro coffee shop]] has a guy despairing on a [[JustFriends girl he's in love with]] that seems to just be part of the whole 'alternate universe Coffee of Doom' design, but since the shop isn't just there for a few joke strips, the characters participate in an actual story arc, it is foreshadowing for said arc.
111	** Note Dora's worry in [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1300 this strip]]. Now, who does [[spoiler: Marten]] hook up with later? [[spoiler: Claire, a trans girl.]]
112	*** Though Dora herself [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=615 joked about this]] early in her relationship with Marten.
113	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=857 Dora's reaction to Marten getting a haircut]] [[spoiler: brings up the issues which eventually end their relationship]].
114	** On a lighter note, Dora's [[PuppyDogEyes reaction]] when Tai jokingly [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1608 "transfers her affections"]] to Faye looks a little different now that [[spoiler:they're not only in a relationship, but engaged]].
115	** In [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=642 this strip]] Raven warns Faye that Dora will kill her for drinking on the job. [[spoiler: Faye is fired for drinking on the job [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2879 2237 strips later]].]]
116	*** Faye was not listening. She herself [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1759 advises Cosette and Hanners]] "You'll get fired if you keep fuckin' up so much." [[spoiler: 1120 strips later, she will herself be fired for fucking up so much.]]
117	** Claire complains about the universe's decisions [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2280 here]], and we later see her use swimming trunks in the water. [[spoiler: She's trans.]]
118	** When discussing Tai's secret pastime, [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=803 Pintsize mentions his own "universe of porn".]] Dora asks about access to that database, but Marten remarks that wouldn't be good for their relationship. [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1796 Much later, Dora goes through Marten's porn archive after he asks her not to.]] [[spoiler: The resulting argument is the one that ultimately ends their relationship.]]
119	** In [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2217 this strip]] Faye asks Marten which intern he's "going to bang", to loud protests from Marten. Doubly loud because he had fielded the same question from Tai in the previous comic. [[spoiler: Turns out it's Claire.]]
120	** [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1400 This page]], where Dora promises Tai she can be her rebound. Dora and Tai do indeed hook up after Dora and Marten break up.
121	** [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3744 This event]] was foreshadowed multiple times:
122	*** [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2262 Pintsize was joking...]]
123	*** [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3075 May was just pondering the possibilities, right?]]
124	*** Whereas [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3605 Claire]] was definitely {{Shipping}}.
125	*** It was foreshadowed as early as Bubbles' first appearance in the strip. In the strip after her very first one, which is an [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3004 infographic strip where her features are indicated]], one info panel says she "Gives TERRIFYING backrubs". Sure enough, [[spoiler:Faye]] becomes terrified [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3733 after receiving a backrub from Bubbles]] [[spoiler:and realizing that she has feelings for Bubbles]]. Doubles as a BrickJoke.
126	* ForgedMessage: PlayedForLaughs in [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=670 this]] guest strip, which might double as TheUnreveal and definitely doubles as a parody of Advertising/HostessFruitPies ads. (You'd probably need to have some context of QC history to that point to understand it. There's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it line at the end that makes it fall into this trope.)
127	* FormulaForTheUnformulable: Hannelore's father asks Marten how happy she is on Earth and then hands him a giant book which will apparently show him how to calculate this. It is not shown if it works since Marten couldn't understand it.
128	* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Faye (choleric), Hannelore (melancholic), Marten (leuquine), and Dora (sanguine).
129	* FreakyFashionMildMind: Done to an extent with Dora and Raven, who are both more goth (and emo, for Raven) in dress than [[PerkyGoth in mentality.]]
130	* FriendInTheBlackMarket: When Faye is out of work and trying to stay sober, she jokes that she'd like a job "fabricating custom murder-chassis for underground robot fighting tournaments", whereupon Pintsize uses this trope, with what turn out to be major plot consequences:
131	-->'''Pintsize''': Were you serious about working for an underground robot fighting ring?\
132	'''Faye''': What?\
133	'''Pintsize''': Because I'm not saying I know a guy or anything, but I TOTALLY KNOW A GUY.
134	* FriendlessBackground: Marigold and Hannelore. The former was just a loner, and the latter spent a good deal of her life scared of everything and without a proper social life...up in space.
135	** Also implied with Emily
136	* FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider: The webcomic has [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2334 Gordon]] the [[RidiculouslyHumanRobots AnthroPC]], a congenial AI who doesn't quite understand that his cartoonish mini-SpiderTank chassis is pure NightmareFuel to a lot of his clients.
137	* FriendsWithBenefits: Sven and Faye have a thing like this for a while. [[spoiler:Ultimately, Faye got too attached, and Sven went back to his smarmy ways.]]
138	* FullNameUltimatum:
139	** Marten's mother [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1835 calls him]] Marten [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries Tiberius]] Reed when she gets mad at him, even though Tiberius isn't really his middle name.
140	** Hannelore calls Marigold [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1992 by her full name]] when she's upset with her.
141	* FunctionalGenreSavvy: When a stranger accidentally flies a drone into his head, then immediately befriends him, Marten says [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4749 "this is pretty much par for the course in my social circle".]]
142	* FunnyBackgroundEvent:
143	** Momo tends to be part of silent gags, such as [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1657 here]] and [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1738 here]].
144	** Often the title of the strip points out or creates a funny background event out of something that was just scenery.
145	** [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1526 Dora tries on a tail at an anime con.]]
146	** Funny ''Side''ground Event from Hanners [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1182 here]].
147	** Faye and Pintsize have a Funny Foreground Event [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1829 here]].
148	** Padma poking [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2045 a passed out drunk guy at a bar]].
149	** Momo is still capable of these in her new chassis. [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2072 Here she is finding some questionable content of her own.]]
150	** [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname Sweet-Tits]] [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2031 reading a book on bird care]] in her first canon appearance.
151	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2345 This entire comic]] is about the background event.
152	** Frequently, the specials in the coffee shop act as one. Either they read like something out of a LethalChef's cookbook ("ghost pepper mocha, buffalo scones, really shitty granola", for example) or they contain items that aren't even food. In [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4100 one random strip]], [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affogato Affogato]] is listed precisely in order to specify that they don't have it ("NO") and other specials include "Advice", "Good Advice" and "Blood Pack".
153	** Similarly, the menu in the sandwich place where Steve and Meena meet is an [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=883 interesting read]]: The "Berlin" sandwich is made with ham, bacon, pork and ''techno'', for example.
154	** In [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4184 this strip]], Yay is fighting the urge to intervene in Roko's work. Melon gives Yay an unfolded paperclip to fiddle with, which she says she uses to distract her when she has "unspeakable urges". In the following strip, Roko and Yay continue their conversation while Yay folds the paperclip into impossibly convoluted shapes (apparently by heating it up so that it becomes more malleable), before finally folding it back into the shape of a perfect paperclip and handing it back to a very pleased-looking Melon. Jeph comments in the rant "inductive fingertips, apparently."
155	** After buying a new bread knife, [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4718 Roko tests it out]] and considers the results [[SeriousBusiness very intently]], while talking with Spookybot.
156	* GagPenis: Dora regarding Marten, albeit jokingly. [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=764 "It's roughly as large as my forearm and fist and about as dextrous."]] Raven, however, takes her seriously.
157	* GaleForceSound: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1566 Yelling Bird is very insistent.]]
158	* GarageBand: Deathmøle.
159	* GargleBlaster: The vintage whiskey they bought once. Delicious as it was, it glowed and came with a [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=718 health warning]]. A guest strip is also centered around one.
160	** And then there's [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3793 Melon's teas.]]
161	* GayGuySeeksPopularJock: Inverted when LovableJock GentleGiant Elliott, who already knows he's bisexual, pines for and works up the courage to nervously court tiny nerd Clinton, and serves as ''his'' ClosetKey.
162	* GenericCuteness: Most of the cast is quite young: early to mid-20s., and the parental characters are somewhat unconvincing. For instance, Marten's mom has facial characteristics similar to the core cast, but with a single wrinkle and an older-woman's hairstyle. Dora's father only manages to look his age because he's portly and bald. Faye's mom looks like Faye with gray hair. {{Lampshade\|Hanging}}d when [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1515 Dora meets Marten's dad]], who looks just like Marten with gray hair and tiny lines under his eyes for wrinkles.
163	--> ''BeatPanel looking at Marten's dad''\
164	''BeatPanel looking at Marten''\
165	'''Dora:''' '''OH MY GOD YOU ARE GONNA BE SO HOT WHEN YOU GO GRAY'''\
166	'''Henry:''' Hear that, Maurice? I'm still hot.\
167	'''Maurice:''' Smoking, darling.
168	::When Claire is introduced to Henry, she also finds him very handsome.
169	* GeniusDitz: ''Raven''.
170	* GenkiGirl: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1545 Randy]] [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1661 the]] [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1815 Bandicoot]].
171	* GenreBlindness: Hannelore, of all people, gets a weird case of this [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4103 here]], when she asks Winslow how his day was: he informs her that he was licked by a reindeer and saw an invisible emu, and she immediately assumes that he must be hallucinating, in spite of the fact that this is a strip that takes place post-Singularity and features sentient AIs inhabiting robot bodies, in a town which features an underground robot-fighting ring and a random girl wandering the streets who acts like a fairy, and Hannelore herself ''grew up on a fricking spaceship'' and was basically raised by a computer.
172	* GentleGiant: Elliot, in spite of the fact that he also works as a bouncer. As the latter, he prefers defusing situations to using violence.
173	* GhostInTheMachine: Of the ''Series/HermansHead''/''WesternAnimation/InsideOut'' variety. The interior of Marigold's head is [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4612 depicted in one strip]] as a combination of naval vessel and spaceship, with various Marigolds depicted as a Pirate Captain, a plucky but nervous Helmsperson, a Frazzled Scientist and a WrenchWench engineer with a [[TheEngineer Mr. Scott-type fake Scottish accent]]. Because:
174	-->'''Helmsperson Marigold''': [''as a klaxon goes WOOP WOOP WOOP''] Captain, getting red alerts across all systems!
175	-->'''Captain Marigold''': What's going on? Engines, report!
176	-->'''Engineer Marigold''': [''struggling with a piece of equipment labelled "IMPORTANT ENGINE THINGY"''] I'm givin' 'er all she's got, cap'n! Any more an' she'll melt doon!
177	-->'''Captain Marigold''': Balance officer, report!
178	-->'''Scientist Marigold''': [''struggling with rolls of printouts''] The- the- the- the- readings are all over the place! I can't make heads or tails of it!
179	-->'''Helmsperson Marigold''': Ma'am , I'm seeing multiple structural failure warnings--
180	-->'''Captain Marigold''': Dear god.
181	-->'''Helmsperson Marigold''': [''obscured by explosion of panel''] Aiee!
182	-->'''Captain Marigold''': We're... we're...
183	-->[''In final panel, Marigold is doing yoga'']
184	-->'''Captain Marigold''': [''in narration box''] We're ''exercising''.
185	* GirlishPigtails:
186	** Momo-tan, in a scene where otherwise ''[[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1658 she's all grown up now]]''.
187	** Momo-tan's new chassis.
188	** Marigold has had her hair in pigtails as of late as seen [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1597 here]].
189	* GirlOnGirlIsHot:
190	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1544 So say the turkeys]]. Marigold's ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' buddies [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1492 think so too]], and [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1937 Steve and Pintsize agree]].
191	** Angus implies it in [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2262 this strip]].
192	* GirlsNightOutEpisode: [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4766 When Beeps and Roko are feeling down about a meeting not going well, Beeps suggests a girls' night out.]] However, the trope is then, strictly speaking, averted, because Roko has a dissociative panic episode while preparing, and the group decide to have a night in instead, for her sake.
193	* GivingUpOnLogic: Marten is apparently no longer able to tell what is weird and what isn't because he's given up on anything making sense.
194	-->'''Tai:''' I'm sorry, is it weird to come to you for dating advice about your ex-girlfriend?\
195	'''Marten:''' Dunno. [[WorldGoneMad Every other aspect of my life]] has thrown off my weirdness calibration.
196	* GlassesCuriosity: In [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2175 this strip]], Faye and Marigold choose to try each other's glasses. Faye's prescription is so strong, it shocks Marigold. Faye jokes that Marigold's glasses make everyone look like anime characters...
197	-->'''Marigold:''' ''That's not what my prescription is like.'' (starts to whisper to herself) I wish that was what it was like.
198	* TheGlomp: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2248 Tai lays one on Marten.]]
199	* GodivaHair: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2891 Claire]] manages to have a pretty full amount of hair from behind, but at the same time enough to cover up her chest.
200	* GodwinsLaw / HitlerAteSugar: Invoked and lampshaded in strip 1020. [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1020 The only thing dumber than an argument on the internet is the same argument in real life]].
201	* GoingCosmic: Following the comic's CerebusSyndrome, the comic delves into how the AI work in this world, bringing up philosophical points about their individual personalities, how they view and perceive the world compared to humans, and even [[spoiler:romance.]]
202	* GoodLookingPrivates: Invoked by Faye when Bubbles is trying to praise her for leaving Tai and Dora's engagement party rather than give in to her desire to have a drink:
203	-->'''Bubbles''': You accomplished your mission and made a tactical retreat before the situation got out of hand. If I were your commanding officer, I would be--
204	-->'''Faye''': You can be my commandin' officer, if you want.
205	-->'''Bubbles''': [''Massive CrushBlush, vents coolant with an audible "Fweeee" noise''] Ve...very well. Let us go home, and I will [[DoubleEntendre debrief you.]]
206	-->'''Faye''': [[GoingCommando I'm not wearing any briefs.]]
207	* AGoodNameForARockBand: Invoked with "racist murdercult" in ''[[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2083 That's My Backup Plan]]''. "Piss-Horse" is also brought up as an idea for a Southern doom-metal band.
208	* GoodNewsBadNews: When Clinton learns that Aurelia has become a [[VirtualYouTuber virtual streamer]], he does a quick internet search to see if she's locked down her personal life as firmly as she claims. The good news is the only results are porn fanart. This is also the bad news.
209	* GoodOlBoy: Jimbo...[[SubvertedTrope who writes trashy romance novels]].
210	* GoofyPrintUnderwear, often off screen:
211	** Marten’s are [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1574 pink with red polka dots]].[[note]]What he is ''doing'' there is explained [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1572 a few strips earlier]].[[/note]]
212	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1504 Marigold]] has frilly Badtz-Maru panties.[[note]]The author's LJ blog has [[http://qcjeph.livejournal.com/109208.html the illustration]] for [[FanService those interested]].[[/note]]
213	** Angus has a pair of [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1505 He-Man boxers]].
214	** Faye seems to have quite a collection. She would ''never'' wear [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=932 leopard print]] underwear. Only ''jaguar'' print. Or [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=129 monkeys]]. Or [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=187 dancing alligators]].
215	* GorgeousPeriodDress: For rent at a local theme bar; it's also the reason Wil got hired at said bar.
216	* GossipEvolution: The rumor mill of Cubetown quickly [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4960 takes a technically true story about Claire]] ("I hear she had the head o' security shakin' in her boots" and "I hear she wasn't even spooked by the director") and turns her into an impressive ScaryLibrarian ("I heard she once shushed someone so hard they died," and "I heard she keeps the souls of her victims in a glass vial around her boyfriend's neck")
217	-->'''Marten:''' It's less of a rumor mill and more of a rumor particle accelerator, huh.
218	* GotVolunteered: This seems to work surprisingly well for Dora as a way to hire new employees, since both Penelope and Emily were actually frequent customers who pretty much got drafted. Both went along with this, and Dora did it to Penelope again by making her assistant manager without inquiring first as to whether she wanted the position (she did take it).
219	* GrapesOfLuxury: Dora considers amending her employees' contracts with this proviso.
220	* GreenEyedMonster: Dora admits that she's been very jealous of Sven for a long time because of how everything seems to come so easy to him with minimal effort, which factors into her emotional insecurities.
221	* GrievousHarmWithABody: When Clinton's robotic hand detached and stuck itself onto Faye's chest, Faye was understandably upset.
222	-->'''Marten:''' I can't believe you smacked him with his own hand.
223	* GroinAttack:
224	** [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=185 In one strip]], a drunk and passed-out Faye accidentally headbutts Marten in the crotch just prior to vomiting all over him.
225	** In [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=746 this strip]] -- "Metal foot...to...mantenna array! Pain level...[[LargeHam Shatnerian]]...in intensity!"
226	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1641 "Faye does not suffer 69 jokes gladly."]]
227	* GuyOnGuyIsHot: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1639 Faye and Dora seem to think so]].
228	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1420 Hanners as well.]]
229	* HackerCollective: The "[[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3391 Sympathetic Party]]" who offers to help restore Bubbles' sealed memories is an A.I. version of this, with WordOfGod confirming that several of them share the physical body they appear in at one time (thus the AmbiguousGender of the chassis and use of "they" as a personal pronoun). They offer to help Bubbles no strings attached but apparently aren't always so benevolent.
230	* {{Haiku}}: [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=181 Delicious bourbon \
231	Finest of all the spirits \
232	A drunken haiku]].
233	* HairyGirl: Tai's friend Delilah, who Marten briefly hooks up with, doesn't shave her legs or her armpits.
234	* HalfIdenticalTwins: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2277 Marten asks if Claire and Clinton are this,]] and they angrily object in unison (Claire is actually older).
235	* HandOrObjectUnderwear: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1915 Or cat, as it were]].
236	* HandshakeRefusal: On being introduced to Dave, Steve refuses to shake his hand because immediately preceding the introduction, he heard Dave watching porn. Yeaaah.
237	* HaplesslyHiding: Roko tries to [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3331 tail]] Faye and Bubbles, then hides in a trash can when she's spotted, so Bubbles stacks it precariously on top of another trash can, trapping her. Roko [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3415 is not amused.]]
238	* HappyDance: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=300 Steve and Ellen]], [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=840 Marten (offscreen)]], [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=903 Dora and Marten]], [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1597 Marigold]], and [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1738 Angus]] [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1888 twice]].
239	* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: Partial deconstruction. Faye adopts many of the traits involved (funny accent--her original Southern one, a more comical, boisterous attitude, etc.), but then comes deconstruction--others become concerned for her alcoholism, and parts of her personality are much more [[BrokenBird reserved]]. The rest of the cast are better matches--being college-town musicians and young adults in general, they partake in the booze with great regularity. It's pretty much their token "This is how we introduce people to the group" scene now.
240	* HatesBeingTouched: Hannelore initially, though she's slowly grown out of it. She's a [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1659 total]] [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1660 pokeslut]] now, and even [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1709 hugs Marten]] when she gets a job at Coffee of Doom. Reverts back to it briefly when [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1900 a fanboy of her father's goes creeperiffic on her]] to the point where [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1902 Marten has to kick Clinton out via a broadsword]]. She is eventually able to [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2146 hug her father for the first time]] as his birthday present.
241	* HatesTheJobLovesTheLimelight: Sven doesn't exactly fit the trope because he's a. young, and b. a writer, not a performer; but he has the ''mindset'' of writing music for MoneyDearBoy.
242	--> [[http://questionablecontent.net./view.php?comic=1424 "Meh. My artistic integrity wears a gimp suit and lives in a box."]]
243	* HeadTiltinglyKinky: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1117 First Marten, then Tai]].
244	* HeartDrive: In the underground robot fighting ring, the combatants have [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3008 specially reinforced hard drives.]]
245	* HeavyMetalUmlaut: The "Ø" used in Deathmøle's title falls into this trope.
246	* HerBoyfriendsJacket: Hannelore and Sven go on a fake date (because she never has gone on a real one), at the end of which she looks absolutely adorable wearing his hoodie against the cold.
247	* HeterosexualLifePartners: Hanners and Marigold.
248	* HiddenDepths: From Jacques' comment [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2332 "Pintsize has hidden depths. Unfortunately they are full of porn."]]
249	* HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs: [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5063 Almost, but not quite.]] After coming round from getting stoned with Claire and Marten, Liz realizes she took a bunch of notes during the night, and becomes excited at the possibility of having found a cure for her astrophysicist's block... only to discover that she just ended up drawing pictures of unicorns. [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5064 She promptly considers]] trying ketamine instead.
250	* HighPressureEmotion:
251	** [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2037 Momo's reaction when she downloads the library's database and sees all the Victorian-era pornography]].
252	** And when [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2958 she reads some of Hannalore's yaoi]].
253	* HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: Hannelore when she was with her mother.
254	* HilarityEnsues: despite not being an example of this trope by itself, [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=712 this strip]] references the trope's typical use in sitcoms.
255	* HisNameReallyIsBarkeep: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=5007 Bart Tender, anyway.]]
256	* HollywoodAtheist: Averted (mostly) with Penelope.
257	* HollywoodProvincialism: The newspost below [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=224 this]] strip implies that Ellen's about to turn 18. The age of consent in Massachusetts is 16.
258	* HollywoodPudgy: Jacques has a tendency to draw ''all'' his "overweight" characters as merely Hollywood Pudgy.
259	** Faye is arguably [[PlayingWithaTrope an aversion]] -- she's regarded as a very attractive woman in-universe, but is a bit self-conscious about her weight (her rear end is quite large, but this is seen as a plus by many). Many [[RealLife real]] people have the same hang-ups, so it's a kind of deconstruction of the trope. Oddly enough, Jacques drew Faye with the same build as Dora early in the comic's run, though this has gradually changed due to ArtEvolution.
260	*** Faye's build actually changes significantly from strip to strip: sometimes Jacques [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4127 draws her as this trope]], where her supposed pudginess is an InformedAttribute, and sometimes he draws her as [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3330 something closer to a BigBeautifulWoman]]. Basically, Faye will gain or lose c. 20 lbs, depending on the mood Jacques is in when he draws her. (Note how her bust size drops dramatically between [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4961 this strip]] and [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4971 this strip]], which was published ten days later but which is set later the same day.)
261	** Marigold considers herself fat as well (despite being thinner than Faye -- she has ''really'' low self-esteem), so it counts in her own mind.
262	** Even [[Creator/ValveSoftware Gabe Newell]] [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=856 gets this treatment]].
263	* HollywoodToneDeaf: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1358 Steve]], [[TakeOurWordForIt according to Marten]].
264	* HomeNudist: When Dora and Tai get lost en route to a friend's family cottage, they end up at the door of a rather large, very naked elderly man and his wife. They stop in for a game of cards and some home-baked cookies, so clearly they're not much bothered
265	* HomosexualReproduction: One member of an all-girl LoveDodecahedron [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=726 gets pregnant "somehow"]], but we never do find out the actual cause...
266	** '''[[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2240 WE ARE WORKING ON THAT TECHNOLOGY]]'''
267	* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1311 Wil.]]
268	* HugAndComment: [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1564 Your armpits smell like daffodils.]]
269	* HulkSpeak: [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3577 DROID 06]] EXHIBIT THIS SPEECH PATTERN.
270	-->''DROID 06 SEE CAT STUCK IN TREE. DROID 06 KNOCK TREE OVER TO SAVE CAT. CAT BITE DROID 06 AND RUN AWAY. [[OverlyLongGag DROID 06 SAD.]]''
271	* HumanJungleGym: The webcomic shows Elliot's GentleGiant nature when he lets a friend and a new acquaintance [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3516 swing]] off his outstretched arms.
272	* HurricaneOfEuphemisms:
273	** In strip number [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1779 1779]], Tai (who is a lesbian, and attracted to Marten's girlfriend Dora) has just shared with Marten her realization that she would not be able to bring herself to hook up with Dora even if Dora and Marten were to break up first. Not so much out of respect for her friendship with Marten, as because she wouldn't want to lick Dora's private parts while knowing that Marten had previously ejaculated there. Marten tells Tai that it's not like Dora is dripping his "happy-batter" everywhere she goes.
274	--->'''Tai:''' "Happy-batter?" ''Seriously?''\
275	'''Marten:''' Yeah, you know. My joy-juice. My glee-gloop. My ''euphoria fluid''.\
276	'''Tai:''' Agh! Stop! Enough already!
277	** In strip number [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4555 4555]], Marten's mischievous robot buddy Pintsize has just gotten a more lifelike humanoid body, and is bothered by how he feels inhibited from acting and speaking as crudely as he did before. When the rather bosomy Willow says it was nice meeting him, he tries to answer with, "And it was nice meeting YOUR TITS," except he gets stuck on "TI—" without being able to say the rest. Some alternatives, "Your ju—" and "Your baz—", also stick in his throat, causing him much consternation. Willow giggles that she's going to start calling breasts "Tijubas".
278	** In [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4769 #4769]], Roko has dressed up for a night out, but has yet to reveal her outfit. Talking through the door to Beeps, she rattles off a string of descriptions implying that her dress is very short.
279	--->'''Roko:''' I feel like if I had a dad he wouldn't let me leave the house like this. If Nelson had come with us he'd have to wear a wide-brim hat to preserve our working relationship. If I bend even slightly forward everyone will know it's animal-print underwear day and my favorite primate is the lemur. No one is going to ask if my legs go all the way up because it is abundantly clear where they join my torso. This dress was outcompeted for food by its other, larger nestmates. [[YouMustBeThisTallToRide This dress isn't allowed on most amusement park rides.]] This dress has not been evaluated by the FDA and is not intended to provide adequate raiment. This dress is ''abridged''.
280	* {{Hypocrite}}: '''Hannelore''' [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1063 going apeshit about having "a crazy person" living in the same building as she]].
281	* HypocriticalHumor:
282	** In [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1063 #1063]]:
283	--->'''Hannelore:''' There could be a crazy person living RIGHT IN MY BUILDING!
284	** [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1289 Penelope has this]] and ComicallyMissingThePoint in regards to spirituality.
285	--->'''Dora:''' It's not like Wil's some Jesus-freak. Can't you just agree to disagree?\
286	'''Penelope:''' I shouldn't have to! I'm '''right'''!\
287	'''Dora:''' No offense Penelope, but that sounds like the kind of argument [[HeteronormativeCrusader your parents]] [[TheFundamentalist would use]].\
288	'''Penelope:''' Yes... but see, ''they're'' '''wrong'''.\
289	'''Dora:''' [[LampshadeHanging I think you're missing the point.]]
290	** In [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2630 #2630]]:
291	--->'''Marten:''' She didn't even get my name right.\
292	'''Steve:''' Aw, that sucks bro.\
293	'''Cosette:''' What was '''her''' name?\
294	''[{{Beat}}]''\
295	'''Marten:''' Hang on, hang on, I know I know this.\
296	'''Cosette:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Uh huh.]]
297	** The OMG Turkeys comics are usually made from photos of turkeys. [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4924 OMG "Turkeys" 2022]] uses AI-generated art, with the last panel being the regular turkeys commenting on the AI-generated turkeys:
