    Her name is now “Brita Bubbles.”

      Her knuckles say “Cobra.”

        But the cobras don’t have knuckles.

      Right. Insert “Ms” in front of “Bubbles” in my post yesterday ^_^

      Wouldn’t “Bubbles Brita” make more sense, nyao?

      Then again, when does a talking cat make sense?

    “Brita” sounds a lot like “Beta” – nice name for a girl!

      I can’t believe it took me two years to get that callback. XD

    I like how sweetheart considers a meeting to decide Bubbles’ name to be important.

    I suggest Brita “Bubbles” Pitcher for a full name. Bubbles being either a nickname or middlename.

      Descendant of Molly Pitcher, no doubt, if her genetic makeup could produce a water cooler descendant…

      I don’t know, I think the original designation of Bubbles Cooler seems to fit her more. Given Tetra Valent’s comments above about the similarities, perhaps it could be amended to Bubbles Brita Cooler. That way they have something to call her if she’s ever in severe trouble, and no copyrights are stepped on.

      Of course, the correct question is what she calls herself . . . and how she can tell the rest of us.

    “Bubbles” is a pretty good name for her…and my mouthing off yesterday was just mouthing off for the sake of mouthing off…

    Maybe two Ts? It looks better written down as “Britta” to me for some reason.

      As a Community fan, I agree with the two T spelling.

        As both a Community fan and a person who has actually met an actual woman whose actual name is actually “Britta,” so do I.

    (TUNE: “Lovely Rita”, The Beatles)

    Lovely Brita, bit o’ bot!
    Wandering ’round the office,
    Quietly smiles, then takes my files away!

     Working hard on my computer,
     Brita came, but then I shoo’d her,
     Smiling like a Barbie doll, she sure can annoy!

     Now I can’t complete my filing!
     Falling for that smile beguiling,
     Telling us that service is her only true joy!

    Lovely Brita, bit o’ bot!
    “Bubbles” is causing troubles!
    Feeling such rage, I might ram-page today!

    It is such a great feeling when your suggestion gets made into canon.

      It is indeed, although priority goes to “Treesong”, who first suggested the name back on October 10.

    also, the coloring on Sweetheart’s ears is inverted in panel 3

      pretty sure the ‘rear’ ear is shown shadowed, y’know, for depth.

    Danny Sichel: Sweetie is completely white (except for the insides of her ears), and last page also had the ears alternating being black

      Yup. During the Alaska storyline, Shaenon’s visual trick for distinguishing among a whole bunch of dog characters was to give each one a unique coloring pattern. Sweetheart’s distinction was being all white. As matteo says, whichever ear is farther from us in today’s strip is just shadowed for depth.

    Is this a riff on Bubble, Edina’s assistant in Absolutely Fabulous? Because I would approve. 😀

      I can’t help but also think of Brita Perry, from Community.

    Why isn’t Bubbles part of the Cast?

      Give ’em a break; she just got a name today.

        Publicly, anyway. S&J may have had this name in mind all along (especially give Bubbles’s outfit), but I like to think that Unity in panel 3 is a personification (well, zombification) of Fandom and that the enthusiastic use of that name last fall stuck. We might never know for sure until “Skin Horse, The Director’s Cut” runs.

        She can’t get into the cast page until she becomes important enough for its author (Mr. Green?) to notice and to get around to writing her bio.
