Lovelace was pretty much a fully formed adult when she first appeared in Narbonic anyway. If you don’t accept that, there’s some *serious* issues about her dating Dave at age zero…
A big age difference in dating is usually a symptom of your isotopes having been sitting on the shelf for too long.
Though with the state of the art of artificial intelligence, it is hardly surprising that she would date Dave at age zero. Given her limited exposure to control groups, how was she to know his actual age?
It’s a good thing Nick can’t program himself, because that last panel looks awfully like an infinite loop. Unless we can interpret Lovelace’s text as a COMEFROM — that would be one solution for this non-existent problem.
Okay, show of hands, who thinks Aimee is actually nowhere near this tower, and is hiding out somewhere else (probably made out of teddy bears and the only pastel colored thing in [virtual] miles).
Is it called Dontgonearthe Castle?
Either that or Flyfools.
Still better than White Castle.
That is odd. Most fourteen year old girls love Whimsy movies.
Although she might actually be older. But we first heard her just over fourteen years ago…
That’s like 300 in computer years.
Oh, longer than that. You have no idea how tedious computers find talking to meat…

mwahaha, a Carbon-14 joke, I love it.
They’re better for you than Kubrick movies, though, Lovelace.
Yeah, for her 2001 A Space Odyssey is just a snuff film.
Ooh, here’s hoping they meet Idris Elba along the way!

Took me a while to get that!
(Pretends he did that on purpose.)
For shame; that joke is terrible; I’m groaning.
Took *me* a while to get *that* joke. Well done.
Well, Lovelace isn’t alone in this. Nick knew all the Whimsey characters just so he could hate them…or so he said.
Or so he said.
He watches Whimsy movies ironically.
Gonna be honest, while I loved the appearance at first, the Baron looks WRONG that majestic.

Shaenon, do I have your permission to quote http://shaenon.livejournal.com/136183.html ?
Sure, if you like.
