Kickstarter Tips
Shaenon: More sketches for the Narbonic Kickstarter. A surprising number of people asked for Tip, who, for the record, does not appear in Narbonic.
Channing: He is, however, amazingly sexy. I’m going to go out on a limb and say this counts for a lot.
Shaenon: Eh, he’s no Nick Zerhakker.
The hand puppets are adorable!
Is that a gown or a wedding dress?
It looks like a sari to me. Maybe a muumuu.
Yeah, I was thinking a muumuu, just because of the flowers.
Naw, it’s got a train.
I’m not trying to say I’m sure I’m right (and it certainly wouldn’t be the first time I was wrong), but just for reference…

It did get me thinking, “If he ever settles down enough for marriage, will he wear a bridal gown?”
He’s not even Seth.
Should Nick be the third flatmate in the Seth/Caliban sitcom?
He could be the living room?
Puppets!
Even Nick Zerhakker isn’t Nick Zerhakker.
By me, Tip is the guy you’d screw, but Nick is the guy (for certain values of “guy”) you’d marry. If you’re Ginny, maybe you can work out a way to have both.
Yeah, it’s amazing how an angry, sweary helicopter can be such a human and lovable character, isn’t it? Nick is kind of the acid test. If you don’t like him you don’t like Skin Horse.
