That’s not an unreasonable question. I’d like to think that Sweetheart is thinking of Unity as “my girl”, but considering her comment the other day about needing better pickup lines, she may still be in “date mode” and is getting upset because her “date” has fallen for someone else (even though Niue was technically dating the drone and didn’t seem to care who was operating it).
We know that Unity was created in a secure facility, so she certainly qualifies as “captive-bred”. I’m not sure about Niue’s origins. I really hope Sweetheart doesn’t F^¢< up her possibilities with Unity just because she’s too focused on making sure this “date” ends in her favour.
I love this comic! It is binge worthy! I just got caught up! Started two weeks ago and read ten years worth of content! Can’t wait to see what happens!
Welcome to our little group. There’s coffee in the back, and free day-old scones on Wednesdays. And we prefer the term “alternately intelligent” as opposed to “crazy”.
I’ll throw Horror Every Day on top of that http://www.horrormovie.today/
(Technically not a comic but it still has an illustration from Shaenon on each page).
Great to have you! But yes, you must at least read Narbonic. Then you can go down the rabbit hole with all of Shaenon’s comics and all of Jeff’s stories and on and on. You’re gonna love it!
So, Sweetheart…you’re comparing Unity unfavorably to a giant radioactive lobster? Or are you just saying we should all adopt the simple wisdom of the giant radioactive lobster?
Or,…since she works in the Skin Horse cafeteria perhaps she’s one of Tip’s ex-girlfriends. A fair number of them seem to develop subsequent immunity to him as well. ^_^
The funny part is that that is probably legit. You might think that trying to expense the wacky madcap date would be fraudulent, but the whole thing it was a demonstration of assistive technology for non-humans, which is right in line with the Skin Horse mandate.
Well that happened much faster then expected.
There’s a certain vagueness in Sweetheart’s statement. So is Niue the captive-bred hussy and is Unity “my girl?” Or is it the other way ’round?
Niue makes more sense I think. … I think.

I thought it was the lobster stealing away Unity.
I’m still waiting for the dresses to show up.

Just wait until you find out that there’s another six years of Narbonic still to be read :p
This! Your binge reading isn’t over yet! (Grins)
I don’t see SoItBegins anywhere, so…
Mint?
And the two filename stories
And don’t forget X Files Monster of the Week!

And after Narbonic, Li’l Mell! http://www.shaenon.com/lilmell/
Great to hear you’re enjoying! Welcome!
Me too!
Welcome, from us other stalkers…
Um… Sweetheart? Weren’t -you- bred in captivity? Ya know in a secret mad science lab dedicated to a genetic war dog breed program?
Or were you perhaps a test tube dog, and thus argue you technically weren’t “bred” so much as genetically constructed?
Don’t forget to tip, Tip.
Too bad the restaurant probably can’t use the extra lobster for other meals.

Excuse me sir-whose-dog-makes-funny-noises, someone’s gotta pay for this, and you’re the only one who sounds like the guy I was serving
Well, this is not going to help Tip’s depression at all.

One more sign that Tip has completely lost *it*. There is not one hint of an iota of a spark in that woman for him.
That, or she’s blind to the reality of Tip’s preternatural sexual magnetism.
Or,…since she works in the Skin Horse cafeteria perhaps she’s one of Tip’s ex-girlfriends. A fair number of them seem to develop subsequent immunity to him as well. ^_^
The correct thing to do here, Tip, is to bill this to corporate as a work-related expense.
Especially the office damages.
