Grrl Power #950 - Gob-blocked
🕑 Added 2021-06-03 10:01:01 +0000 UTCThanks so much for your support! Like, seriously, you guys.
To view the full-size version... left-click, right-click, new tab. Or left click then use the scroll wheel to zoom in and click and drag the image. I just figured that one out myself.
Frix isn't reminding Prinrin that Sydney is a potential an engine of destruction because he's afraid of what she might actually do, but because it's a pretty good way to deflect her interest. I'm sure there's been more than a few women who have warded off advances by saying "My boyfriend is an ex-Navy SEAL." whether or not any part of that statement is true. Sure, they could easily say "My boyfriend is a millionaire with a 9" dick but also he's addicted to cunnilingus." and in certain situations that might even work better, but it could also spark a guy's competitive nature. Is it better to imply her guy knows fifty ways to kill with a shrimp fork? It's situational. Still, it's hard to beat "My girlfriend can cut a tank in half."
"I'm curious about your specific Navier-Lamé elastodynamic ratios" is physicist speak for "Gurl, you tight?" Also, "I want to solve for your Cylindrical Coordinate Displacement Unknowns" means "Let's get it on." Hmm. That sounds like a T-shirt Dabbler would wear.
At least, I like to think that science nerds hit on each other in ways that are really specific to their field and inscrutable to anyone else. But given the poor male to female ratio in most STEM fields, there are few salacious equation the ladies haven't heard before.
They put up with Digit's crazy inventions because despite her destroying the occasional wall, stuff like her Wall-Bot actually works, and now they can keep just ahead of the usual interior damages to the base. Keep in mind that Digit is hardly the only one in a building full of supers that damages the architecture.

I got more of this vibe... https://youtu.be/691qO96VRVw

Did anyone else give the Wallbot the Coolaid man's voice as he busted threw the wall? "Oh Yea!"
Justaguy
The other chain that went the other direction also ended up somewhere.
Justaguy
I'd probably wear that shirt.

Just wait until WallBot has to defend Digit, and entombs all the bad guys. Not all walls are wood and plaster.

The amusing part for me is that the damage was to a pane of glass, so wall-bot will only be fixing its own entrance. You'd think her boss would have told her to reprogram it to use the door... Oh, wait, the chain is taut, so the anchor is embedded in the next wall. That takes some of the fun out of it...still <i>mostly</i> gonna be dealing with fixing up after itself... Hmmm First Rule of Wall-Robotics: Harm no walls. This robot is an obvious FAIL! :P

Even if you are used to poly relationships, it is bad form to use up one partner's limited time with a new one without prior arrangement!

Wall-bot! Infinitely less terrifying than TR3-VR, a.k.a. "Trevor" or "The Hallway Bot of Doom!" 😅🤖💀
Joseph Bonnar
Thank you for this; I needed a good laugh. :)
JasonAW3
Only fifty ways to kill with a shrimp fork? My, my, you obviously need to be more inventive!
DavidJ
Or put her ON a t-shirt, in that t-shirt... and that's all folks. 😏

Load bearing columns every 5 feet, with lateral supports. You could take out a dozen of them and still not have the top five floors visit the bottom five. You do, probably need someone with laser vision, or sydney to carve a hole every time you want to open up a door...
Dan Curtis
Now I'm wondering how the architects designed the building to survive as much interior damage from super-powered and mechanical oopsies as possible.
daGrimm
He's an alien. Accent, if nothing else.
John Fiala
Oh, lord. Wall Bot is best bot.
Stephen Gilberg
"Kanoodling" usually has a C.
*Ahem* I was also gonna say, before that so rudely posted with my pressing the wrong button, Sydney’s expressions here and on the prior page are really funny because you can tell she trying, but trying not to try. Good work! /:)
Andrew
Can’t help but wonder what digits are on that card. Beyond contact info, perhaps some other coefficients to pique Frix’s scientific curiosity?
Soooo... Am I the only one who wants to see Pinrin in one of the “incentives”? /;)

Getting some serious Doc Brown vibes from Digit in the final panel
Kayleigh Alvarez
Girl let's hybridize our s and p orbitals and share a valence state.
Aaron Mauthe
You really should put dabbler in a t-shirt that says that sometime.
Town Crier
Best turn-down I ever got: "I'm sorry, but your penis is too big". Had me laughing for hours.
Jack Ponder
Please tell me they’ve destroyed Latrine Bot.
Michael Obert
I love Digit! So obliviously adorkable! Am I alone in wanting to see a spin-off of the comic in the Grrl-verse titled 'Digit and Wallbot'? Lol; I'm sure every episode ends the same way, but what fun it would be.
Anton Schleef
Hear it? I can feel it, I don't need to hear it.
Guillaume Ravoire
I can hear the 'STAAAAAAAAAARE' from that panel.
Kj
I love their pairing so much.
