    Yay, Star Trek reference FTW.

    “I’m not going back, Jin/Jim!” – Monica/Spock

      The only thing missing from “Dammit, Jin I’m an anthropologist.” Is the phrase “I’m not a psychiatrist” It was put somewhere else in the speech bubble, rendering the star trek phrase incomplete

      Viable while avoiding possible legal entanglements, perhaps?

        No, a pastiche of a catchphrase is pretty standard fair use.

    Monica “Bones” Varareal! (I apologize if I butchered her last name) I swear that old Star Trek meme came to my head as soon as I started reading. And Tina being a Psychiatrist in a previous life? That would explain the way she talks.

      Heh, your use of the nickname “Bones” as a Star Trek reference has an additional “pun factor ” based upon another fictional “Bones” who just happens to be a anthropologist…

        It’s life Jin but not as we know it
        Not as we know it
        Not as we know it
        It’s life, Jin, but not as we know it
        Not as we know it

      Far as know, first time it’s come up. Explains a lot, doesn’t it?

      It’s definitely been mentioned before. I want to say it was mentioned in the same series of strips that introduced her backstory via newspaper clippings on the wall.

    Damnit Jin?

    Dammit, Janet!!

    It’s astounding, time is fleeting
    Madness takes its toll
    But listen closely, not for very much longer
    I’ve got to keep control

    I remember doing the TIme Warp
    Drinking those moments when
    The blackness would hit me and the void would be calling
    Let’s do the time warp again…
    Let’s do the time warp again!

    It’s just a POIT to the left……..

      And then a step to the right
      Put you hands on your hips,
      And bring your knees in tight!
      But it’s the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane!
      Lets do the time warp again!

    Monica obviously doesn’t read webcomics or she would know that generally the girl with the largest breasts in the cast can do anything.

      But, as ever fan of slasher movies knows, the girl with the largest rack usually gets killed first.

      • Fatuncle

        Perhaps getting killed first falls under “can do anything”?

        Dude, don’t tease me with the word slasher. I spent three years following the “calendar machine” arc hoping Monica’s throat would go tomato surprise all over the frame. Obviously our favorite creamery isn’t going to get aerated so please let me work out my grieving process and learn to love Mammary Sue.

        Fnord, but, technically, she did die. Maybe not first – I’d think the various golems would be first, and she and Tina are pretty much simultaneous, but she did die, for a moment.

    I was very surprised that (original) Tina’s diary did not come up until now. Especially when Monica was desperate for clues about the calendar, yet she dismissed the diary completely. I felt that it was rather inconsiderate towards Tina (the demon coop) who really wanted to know what was written in there…
    And today we learn that Paul was saving it for the next story line!

      I felt the same way. But at least now we know why no one could read it. She was a doctor! 😀

        No one ever said no one could read it. Tina said it was in shorthand, which apparently she knew but her demons don’t.

      She didn’t find any clues about the calendar, only “subject seems distracted today”

        March 29, 2010, 8:49 am | #

        …in shorthand, of course.

    I like the rendering on the hands in the middle panel, BTW.

      Hands? What hands? I don’t see any hands… oh, wait, THERE they are, toward the sides of the panel. I was a tad focused on the middle.

    (Okay, I geek out too much about this comic…)

    Anyways… THAT’s why she doesn’t talk about those notebooks!

    Hey wait, you were supposed to post Wednesday’s strip today so we don’t have to wait until then to see it. What gives?

    Or is this another ‘it’s just me’ situation?

    Jin in the final panel makes me want to find a way to hit a golem without hurting yourself. Because seriously, that cheeky expression is driving me off the wall.

    I think this can be easily resolved by meds. Lots and lots of meds.

        Enough meds, and who cares about Jin?

    Hmm…. and Tina still has some diaries, written in Shorthand. I wonder if she has notes on Jin.
