OMG! The Damage Fairy is so awesome! ROFLMAO! Hehe! And poor Jess is just now realizing she's off the map! ^,^
Simple Simon met a pieman going to the fair;
Said Simple Simon to the pieman "Let me taste your ware."
Said the pieman to Simple Simon "Show me first your penny."
Said Simple Simon to the pieman "Sir, I have not any!"
Love the comic. Couple minor errors. In today's comic (the one posted for Monday, Feb 18th), in the 4th panel, Jess is missing a "t" in "little", "weirdness" has the "i" and "e" reversed, and there's an extra "it" after weirdness.
Okay, that wasn't exactly what I was expecting from her reaction...or rather hoping for.
And I actually do enjoy shopping with my fiancee. I even help her pick things out. Of course, part of it is in the fact that I get to drag her through the kitchen supply store when we go by it.
Yep... That is what you get when people react rationally... A happy conclusion with minimal conflict... Which means that something else is coming up! (I do like to see a non-geek being so accepting of geek culture as well.)
My name made sense when I first thought it up.
I apologize in advance for the inevitable awkwardness.
I vote RL.
The other people don't look futuristic.
Anyone else done this? Solo LARPing (also known as being a loony)?
I know we discussed it before in the line of pretending to be a time traveller.
I actually went down to the corner bar near the University of Oregon one Friday night with my mini recorder and pretended to be on acid and making out with the poles across the street. I baited a few drunks to come over and make fun of me and one guy actually gave me a psych lecture about how I had to be a monkey. It was great.

I actually went down to the corner bar <ditto> with my mini recorder and pretended to be on acid <ditto>. I baited a few drunks to come over and <ditto>. It was great.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Anyway, in today's comic, it becomes pretty darn obvious that we're in RL.
Uh-oh. I think we're playing hardball now...

Well, Mark did reference his meeting with the hunter at the club two comics ago. Then again, their Shadowrun game was at least partially based on their real world in that the hunters are in it. So, there is the possibility that this person has simply joined in on the game... On the other hand, for all we know, the hunter is not a real person in their world. I have no idea what is real in this fictional world anymore!!!

Hmm. There's indeed a parallel between the Hunter of the real world and the Shadowrun game. I'm really not sure if this is RL or a game yet. Or as was mentioned, solo larping.
The robot in Wednesday's comic [Panel 4]
The plurality of Hunters
The anime billboard in Wednesday's comic [Panel 3]
Sarah and Joel's current appearances
all point to Shadowrun.
However, panel 2 of Wednesday's comic points to RL.
Contrasting panels 2 and 3 of Wednesday's comic leads me to the conclusion below.
My verdict:
RL [+Overlay//Shadowrun]
TRANSLATION: The Weregeeks are currently Live Action Role-Playing a game of Shadowrun.
Now: Is the Hunter the 'real' RL hunter, or...?
