  1. Who conducted these studies, anyway?
  2. Story Wednesday Jan 25 2017

    Although it might be worth asking whether it is possible to separate an Aberration of Sirleck's type from its host and thus rescue the host, provided that the host isn't already virtually dead as Sirleck's current host is. Anyway, I still believe that the "lacking empathy and remorse" part is a prerequisite to becoming an Aberration rather than an effect of it. It is not that becoming an Aberration removes one's empathy so much as it is that one must already be nearly devoid of empathy in order to choose to become something that can not survive without killing people at regular intervals.

    For me, if it's not important enough for them to leave me a message, then it must not be important enough for me to call them back.

    Most of the early orbital launch rockets were built out of modified ICBMs, so yes an ICBM that can reach the opposite side of the Earth can reach orbit with a lighter payload.
  5. .I have dismissed that possibility as "boring".
  6. Sci-Fi Physics Help Needed - Open Discussion

    That's if you have antigravity in which it costs less energy to raise an object than can be extracted from its descent. If however your antigravity method still costs at least 10 joules to lift one kilogram by one meter (at Earth's surface), i.e. the same amount of energy as the gain in potential energy from lifting it, then any such antigravity "perpetual motion machine" will run at a deficit and thus not be "perpetual".

    If Rhoda wants to trip Kitty, I think she will enlarge her skirt so that it slips down her legs. That would make her fall over completely and need to untangle herself before resuming the chase (and she would be slowed slightly thereafter if she has to hold the skirt up by hand--or else she will have to spend extra seconds grabbing something from the racks to wear).
  8. I think it was a test to see how much they could get away with contradicting the media. Trump has repeatedly tried to cast the media as unreliable, and probably wants to see just how much he can get the public-at-large to trust his word over that of mainstream news reports.
  9. Things That Make You Happy

    Ooh, I love the Tales series!
  10. Nah, both Elliot and Tedd are casual enough about transforming that they would willingly do so if their companions asked them to. No bets or dares or other coercion necessary.
  11. Story Friday January 20, 2017

    Given that both Ashley and Elliot are bad liars, it's probably for the best that they NOT be trying to pull off a big whopper of a story. Half-truths and truths-with-omissions will work better for them and for their consciences. As for all of the messages, I would bet that they wanted to tell him about Tedd becoming depressive after finding out about Magic Itself being opposed to Tedd's Master Plan.

    Well, it was a school night and they didn't want Elliot staying up too late . . . On boob sizes, I think that Nanase's and Ellen's base forms more or less hit the sweet spot. On women's clothes without pockets, I always figured that the point was that the clothes would thus cling tightly to the wearer's curves, and the visual appeal of the unbroken curves thus showcased was the purpose. As for Miss Kitty, I think that any attempt by Rhoda to enchant her will result in her being brought into the spell-tangle, and she will end up as a mini-catgirl as well. She may be briefly stunned and take a few panels to examine her new self (feel her own ears and tail, etc.), but it will in the end only serve to increase her desire to be "friends" with Rhoda and Catalina.
  13. Story Friday January 13, 2017

    People use raised beds with a tatami-mat floor? That totally clashes with the decor style . . .
  14. What Are You Ingesting?

    I prefer strawberry jam, but otherwise that sounds yummy.
  15. When I am in serious need of staying awake, I usually just skip the coffee and go straight for the caffeine tablets.
  16. I think that the unnatural part is that it is obligatory cannibalism. Even among those animal species that engage in cannibalism, there is no requirement that they SPECIFICALLY eat their own species even when easier prey is available. Also "unnatural" is that they are not just getting mundane protein/fat/carbs/vitamins/minerals from it, but also some form of "life energy" that can be used to fight the ravages of aging.
  17. Well, if your brain is feeling fogged, then it's probably best not to trust it to be alert enough during a traffic incident . . .
  18. What Are You Ingesting?

    Metamucil definitely helped my grandmother and my father when they were having bowel issues.
  19. Story Monday January 16, 2017

    You may have run afoul of Poe's Law here, whereby any sufficiently outrageous statement is easy to mistake for a joke, and vice versa.
  20. NP Monday Jan 16, 2017.

    Yeah, I read it as "the spell would make anybody into a cat girl no matter what they were before".
  21. NP, Friday January 13, 2017

    I forget--when did Elliot do that?
  22. NP, Friday January 13, 2017

    Point #1, however, applies pretty much to EVERYONE that they could reasonably encounter who isn't a young child or a non-human.

    She already blushed back in http://www.egscomics.com/egsnp.php?id=561 just two strips back.
  24. NP, Friday January 13, 2017

    I think that she simply assumed that the mini catgirls would like anybody who loved catgirls as much as she does. She just does not imagine that they would be afraid of her.
  25. Story Friday January 13, 2017

    Not particularly--merely tripping and falling onto one's face (or even hands-and-knees) onto pavement is enough to cause some major scraped skin--I still have a blotchy red scar from a scraped knee that happened last May where I tripped over a curb.
