    A literal square, a cube.

    Let’s fixing him doesn’t cause a least square regression.

      Even if her recent creations aren’t hip, it would be a mistake to treat them poorly. A mean square error.

      There’s gotta be a kinetic energy pun in there too. Maybe Grovel Bot is Catholic. Would Grovel Bot kneel at mass times? Square velocity.

      (Okay, yours is better)

        It’s just a rounding error….

      Well, however it turns out, I’m rooting for Square Bot!

        Boxbot could use some love too. (Not that he’ll ever get it…)

      Just don’t try to fix him with caffeine. A hyper-cube would be a new dimension of square.

    Modrons!

      A bunch of rogue modrons, specifically. Regular modrons would fit themselves in the hierarchy, taking the man’s (machine’s?) orders without thought of groove. They would be the antithesis of Tigerlily and all she stands for. These little cube cats are doing their own thang, which means that Tigerlily can’t control them either. A three-dimensional paradox, dig? Outasight.

    That last line of hers is officially one of the funniest things I’ve ever read! Therefore this particular comic is a treasure.

    Huh. The Tip-Tigerlily Mojo clash has been one of the longest-running unresolved threads in this comic: will there finally be a conclusion, or is this just a cruel authorial tease? πŸ™‚

      You saw what happened to Jonah, Nera, Sweetheart and Unity. Terminal plot implosion threat level is escalated to Orange. Techs to install software to enforce a 50-mile exclusion zone and jam all communications between Nick and Virginia.
      Gavotte and Pavanne’s stasis chambers to be cooled to the temperature of the cosmic background and shot into space in opposite directions. Giant meteor deflected towards Planet Lovetron.

    Looks like the start of a musical – cue the orchestra, the chorus, and… curtain!

      The only one I can think of is SpongeBob SquarePants, so that probably dates me.

      Below I see “Hip to be Square”, so I’m forgetful, too.

    I feel like Grovel-Bot’s dialogue should have maybe been in square brackets instead of pointy ones πŸ˜‰

      But he’s the least square! πŸ˜‰

    Maybe they can go off together and both get their mojo back.

      How Tigerlily Jones and Tip Willikins got their groove back.

      ……Honestly throwing in an and in that and Tip’s last name kinda ruins the ‘title’ don’t it?

        Well, it’s Wilkins, if that makes any difference. But I still like the idea of them regrooving each other.

          You used to be able to get a job regrooving tires. Dunno if there’s one for regrooving mojos…

          I’m old enough, when I see Wilkins, I look around for Wontkins…

    I started reading this comic not long before Tigerlily’s first appearance, and Tip/Tigerlily has been my OTP forever. Oh please let them get together oh please

    But Sesame Street told me it was hip to be a square!

    (Huey who? Oh, the guy who did the Back to the Future theme…)
