We (but not me) had bad experiences with it at the post office. No actual problem, just poor and inconsiderate management (and managers). The end result was that we were forbidden from bringing our children to the plant.
Wait a second…
If Annex-One is now free roaming and no longer connected to anything…
WHAT is it the first annex OF??? Or can it legitimately be called an annex at all?
Come to think of it, does anybody in the regular cast have kids? Well, Gavotte has Pavanne, Grandma Swamp has a daughter…hardly normal parent-child relations.
Since none of the named humans were intelligent enough to reproduce it does look as though H.T. might win any war of nonhumans against humans merely by waiting one generation. ^_~
Just wanted to note that “On the One” is a pure funk term, going back to the days of James Brown.
This is from “Rock Box” by Run-DMC, hip-hop more than funk, but it fits with this latest development:
“So move your butt, to the cut
Run amok, you’re not in a rut
Each and everybody out there, we got the notion
We want to see y’all all in motion
Just shake, wiggle jump up and down
Move your body to the funky sound
Side to side, back and forth
We’re the two mc’s, and we’re gonna go off
Stand in place, walk or run
Tap your feet, you’ll be on the one”
Hopefully this one went better than the one activated in Cumberland, Maryland.
Apparently I missed something…
It is a reference to an arc of the webcomic Dr. McNinja.
“I thought he was humming Huey Lewis.”

It was more complicated to build than the giant jivebot, but came out a lot cooler.
If this is not playing in the background of the Annex One Funkatron, it should be.
Poor crystalline entities.
“Take Your Work to Daughter Day” would be an awesome national holiday. It would also be awesome on a coffee mug or T-shirt.
But if it’s a national holiday, there’s no work. How could you take your daughter to work then?
A. It’s “Take Your Work to Daughter Day”, not “Take Your Daughter to Work Day”.
B. There are tons of national holidays for which you don’t get the day off.
If you work from home, every day is Take Your Work To Daughter Day! (But it’s not very hard. Indeed you might sometimes wish it were harder.)
We (but not me) had bad experiences with it at the post office. No actual problem, just poor and inconsiderate management (and managers). The end result was that we were forbidden from bringing our children to the plant.
Once again, you’re confusing “take your work to daughter” with “take your daughter to work”.
To quote Marty McFly, “Man, this is heavy!”
I’m not sure if the “Heavy” is a sound effect or the voice of The Department of Funk. I’m honestly not sure which I’d prefer.
Dancing, Dancing, Dancing!!!
It’s a dancing machine!!! (or building. Cool ass building.)

You’re talking like The Man, and we’ll have none of that around here!
Word.
The mystery of what Annex One is an annex of is something only Jeff knows.
More in the sense of “Annexation One” now.
If the people won’t come to Annex One, Annex One will just have to go to the people.
Are we sure Tigerlily got her funk back? That robot is *literally* square.
Yes, but it’s undermining the concept of square so badly that it’s made square Funky, thereby achieving an entirely new level of mojo.
Having a square body doesn’t matter. What matters is how well the robot can dance once out of the hurricane.
What really matters is how well it dances while still IN the hurricane.
Come to think of it, does anybody in the regular cast have kids? Well, Gavotte has Pavanne, Grandma Swamp has a daughter…hardly normal parent-child relations.

Towering Barbarian: Nera’s mother has a name. We just haven’t been told what it is.
There is a difference between having a name and being named.
If we consider Skin Horse in some manner Gavotte’s work, perhaps Skin Horse can be brought to Pavane?

Well, sure. When you think classic funk and soul, the first names that come to mind are Jeff Wells and Shaenon Garrity.
this comic needs to be animated
“We don’t have kids.”
……….. Yet? I mean – Tip and Tigerlily only finished a little while ago – we’ll need at least three to five weeks to be sure
I still can’t believe that Gavotte told us this was going to happen when Sweetheart asked about her secret agenda like a decade ago.
Brutalist architecture? Are we sure they’re the good guys?
Hey be fair, the girls didn’t build Annex One, they just converted it into a giant mech.
On the Annex One, specifically.
