    And this is the sort of performance you end up presenting when you don’t remember to rehearse! ^_^

    If she’s not wearing pants, then I hope that there’s at least a skirt there, especially if they are planning on going somewhere’s pubic.

    And is this why you gave Sweetheart the voice controls?

      She’s wearing a very nice black number with a green belt that matches her headscarf.

      I got very worried about that as well, then I remembered they are American and don’t speak English

    Deep down, Tip knows that this is an utterly ridiculous idea. The only way it could possibly work with two operators is if they are in perfect sync. Tip and Sweetheart have never been even close. Unity would have been a better partner — with or without the brains — simply because she and Sweetheart have lived together for so long.

    Time for synch-training like that Evangelion episode 🙂

      Yeah, but that works better when you don’t have two operators who are complete narcissists, and one of whom is consumed with apathy.

        Wait. That’s *exactly* how it was in Evangelion XD

          And when there’s a one-in-a-million chance for success, and Evangelion has already used up that one, the prospects don’t look too good for anyone else.

      Wasn’t there a movie by that title… Inglorious Disasters?

    I clicked away from this strip and saw the headline “Dog fair outcry casts shadow over Kyrgyzstan’s national hat day,” which seems somehow apropos.

      ….Link? That sounds genuinely fascinating. I need context.

    I imagine that there are people out there murmuring right now, “Well… I’ve had bad dates. But at least I’ve never managed to descend to *Sweetheart*-level bad dates.”

      Given Niue’s odd range of responses, I think it’s too early to say it’s a disaster (in the same way the train in flames speeding towards the ravine is not yet technically a wreck)

    Wait, does Niue have … HEADWEAR!?

      Since she hates hat wearers, she must be a good self-hater.

        It’s a scarf. Which is most definitely NOT a hat.

          It changes her appearance more than a hat, which is the part she hates.

    Looks like they’ve thrown some sand into their well-oiled machine.

      Some sand, some metal shavings, a cup of sugar, drained the oil pan, cut the hydraulic lines, . . .

    This may be good for Tip: he may get pissed enough at the incompetence on display to pull him out of his apathy for a while.

      What we do not do out of benevolence, we can do out of pure spite.

    Only Shaenon could create a story arc that was equal parts Pacific Rim and Hatoful Boyfriend.

        I sit corrected.

    Twitch goes on a date. This will not end well.

    So she covered up the rainbow feathers on her head, which would probably just get glossed over as interestingly dyed hair, but not the flight feathers on her arms?
