Let's not go all crazy because she had a "week" award. Nobody needs to put her on a pedestal.

Filth-covered Hanners is... doing things to me

Because helping people out "doesn't fix the system", whatever that means. Sounds like "dog ate my homework" to me.

Does every webcomic feature an /r/thathappened story in a music-related venue?

Nothing personnel, kid.

I shopped at a local place until it shut down last year. Now it's a liquor store.

thanks, I hate it

So Hanners goes off and does a bunch of rich white girl tourist things, realizes she's doing a bunch of white girl tourist things, instead does a bunch of "this summer in the Peace Corps will look good on my internship application" college kid things, then thinks, along with Dora apparently, that just because she did basic farmwork that she has discovered some deep and hidden truth about the universe for growing desensitized to shoveling manure? That's the most "rich white girl finding herself through a pretentious vacation" thing I've heard in awhile, and I've read Eat, Pray, Love. That's not even getting into the fact that Hanners has legitimate mental issues that have seemingly been completely handwaved away. I know it's a bad word on Yea Forums, but this strip is legitimately problematic on multiple levels.

Sure. Well, not Shure. But Audio Technica is a good bet.

>she did basic farmwork that she has discovered some deep and hidden truth about the universe for growing desensitized to shoveling manure? That's the most "rich white girl finding herself through a pretentious vacation"
Truth is everyone at some point in their life should do hard labor. Real work makes you think differently. That's how I see it.

Not that any $100 range mic should ever be referred to as "serious hardware". You have to get into Neumann price range for that.

Well, Jeph is a fucking idiot, and this is probably the closest we've gotten to another handstab-inducing incident, if his fanbase is still made up of the same people. You're right though, even as someone who doesn't give a fuck about SJW politics this shit is offensively bad.

>and this is probably the closest we've gotten to another handstab-inducing incident
Is Jeph reacting poorly to the fanbase?

Didn't a few of his readers demand he put in a transphobic character because everyone in the comic were too supportive and therefore not "realistic"?

So is Hanners tanned or has she been retconned to have been brown and blonde all along?

Because if I don't get to excavate my tanline kink then we're gonna have a FUCKING problem here.

Terrible.

Please just stop posting these. Please. There are better things to do with your lives. Stop giving him views and money.

It didn't used to matter when Martin was a 20something vaguely dissatisfied with his office job and BSing about Arcade Fire before they got big. Now that everything has to be high stakes Jeph never having done anything "real" shows.

I remember being in college and a Blue Yeti WAS a serious piece of equipment to us. When you're flat broke a 100 dollar mic is serious compared to the 20 dollar or even lower mic you can get if you need one. This is however a justifiable question since most 12 year olds don't really care about the audio difference anyway.

Lauren Hill does suck, not because her music is bad, but because she evaded taxes, mistreated studio musicians and stole their music.

Jeph Jacques sucks, not because he's progressive, but because he'z lazy, his arts bad, his storytelling is bad, his jokes are bad and his characters are bad.

I distinctly remember the first comic I read being one where Hanners was standing in line at CoD and got caught up in her musings. One panel had a fisheye lens look at her face.

In looking for it I found out that there was QC cosplay and I don't know how to feel. Sad that it's let them down?

Yeah we would never get a comic like this nowadays.

Attached: 660.png (600x1418, 98K)

So why did you stop going?

It's not that it's expensive. It's that Blue Yeti is overhyped and that much of that $100 is spent on sponsoring "influencers" in a (successful) bid to elevate the product to be the default YouTube mic. Blue Yeti is basically Beats masquerading as a value brand. Ironically, Blue offers actual decent value alternatives, like the Snowball. You can get it on sale for $50 and it's competitive at that price, assuming you can get away with omni and/or cardioid. If $100 is a lot of money, you can probably learn to cope.

All that said, I just noticed the Yeti is currently going for $90, at which it's not that bad of a deal. Its MSRP is $150 and $115 or so is or was a common price to pay. The Audio Technica 2020, the sorta go-to alternative is $75, but it's cardioid-only. Still a very good mic for the price and for USB.

Look, a Raven! It's like a fucking unicorn by this point

When was the last time a band got namedropped in the comic?

Guess I don't have a soul then.
But for real tho, I don't see the appeal in the music, I think it just comes down to personal preference at this point.
>who looms over someone browsing in a music store lambasting their music taste?
This.
Unless the guy is approaching you for other reasons, I hardly see this as a possible thing to happen in real life. The only scenario this would work in, is if you are with your friends and shit talking to each other about their shit taste in music.

Make your bets; just how is this strip finally gonna end?

Hanners is going to beg for her job back but Dora can't for some reason. Then it will switch to Faye and Bubbles, probably.

It will end just like any other strip because before the writer can make a proper ending he will have died of a heart attack in the making of 10982: Cartography

I've worked at best buy when I was younger and I've never seen a scene like this. Like for real, all of us were just tired dealing with customers asking the same retarded questions 24/7 and all we wanted was to get them out as fast as we can and make a sale.

its funny because you know jeph has never done any serious hard work in his life, thus having a poorly informed opinion on all of this.

Attached: wondershowzen.png (540x540, 316K)

It will trail off in an undefined, unsatisfactory, tentative manner. Six months from now someone will passively mention Hannelore doing something off-screen.

Terrible

Suddenly I'm reminded why I hate the concept of character growth.

They better just forget this ever happened and not ruin my turboautist waifu.

Yeah when I was running audio in college I'd use a Snowball and there was no discernible difference anyone on either end could hear. At worst the screw in stand was kind of unwieldy and broke easily.

As someone with legit OCD (mostly toward filth/contamination) I can't overstate how retarded this strip is. Part of the reason why OCD is so distressing is because even if you realize what you're doing is irrational you still feel compelled to do it. You don't just suddenly think "what's the point of being grossed out in the first place?" and CURE yourself of OCD. You CAN'T cure OCD. You can work to minimize the symptoms and definitely improve a lot... but true OCD is something you will always have to live with.

Even if we go with the stupid premise that spending a week cleaning shit would somehow magically cure Hanners of her deep-seated OCD, WHY would Hanners agree to spend "a week ankle-deep in poop"? WHY would she ever do such a thing? The Hanners I knew from previous strips would never do such a thing.

Jeph just haphazardly removed an intrinsic personality trait of Hanners for no reason. He just ruined her. Going from "unable to give hugs" to "literally covered in shit" isn't good character growth it's terrible writing. I imagine Jeph's gonna get a bunch of messages on his twitter and the QC forums from pissed off OCD sufferers... wouldn't be surprised if we get another handstabbing incident and he backpedals on this hard.

By posting them here, user is denying him views. Every strip posted here is one more we don't have to look at on his site.

Rocks fall; everyone dies.

Isn’t this completely dismissive of real mental disorders which usually persist even if the sufferer knows their actions are illogical? Won’t fatty’s hardcore fan base be pissed about this comic?

On the one hand, exposure therapy for OCD is a thing. It's obvious Jeph has no clue how it works however. But the fact that he blew through it in a way that so thoroughly neuters Hanners' characterization is worse.

Not a music store, but I was in line at Gamestop a few years back and the girl working there was berating the guy in front of me for picking up his preorder of a shitty Walking Dead game. I would have told her never mind and left the store.

Well, I have to give him credit, this is exactly the kind of thing a mentally ill white bitch who never actually had to work for a living would consider "deep" or meaningful in any way.

>is judging literally anyone else's travel plans
No, he isn't.

Yes, it's completely absurd and offensive and I would absolutely love to see him try to walk this one back if people get up in arms over this.

I give it a week before Hanners goes to live on the space station with Tilly.

So does Jeff actually want to be a tranny or does he just have a sexual fetish for them?

It's basically the same as having a depressed character say that they realized that sadness was just a feeling and that they're all better now.

But the problem isn't that Hanners is just a pampered rich kid who needed to be humbled; she's had crippling issues with OCD and anxiety and literally took years before she was even capable of functioning on her own, and only started making friends on her own when she was in her mid-twenties. The idea that all of this could just be magically fucking cured by shoveling shit for a for a week is laughable at best and borderline insulting at worst.

Scat porn?

This makes me think Jeph has never bought anything from anybody. What retail worker second guesses a customer who wants to buy something?

>first panel has fetish shot of Faye with her boobs out and big gut exposed like Jeph sometimes hinted at
Truly this author understands Jeph's psyche

>Isn’t this completely dismissive of real mental disorders which usually persist even if the sufferer knows their actions are illogical?

Yes.

Jeph might as well have Faye say she's cured of alcoholism because she rationalized her alcoholic cravings away. She realized drinking too much is silly so she'll just drink responsibly from now.

An alcoholic will always be an alcoholic even if they stop drinking. Someone with OCD will always have OCD even if they can get their symptoms under control.

She might not be ear-rape but she made one okay album then went crazy. That's literally one hit wonder tier.

The funniest part about this is that the blue yeti is the most basic bitch entry level brand-heavy condenser you could possibly buy.

Tbf, exposure therapy surely has worked sometimes.

OCD people don't just spontaneously decide to spend a week bathing in cow shit, that's not how exposure therapy works.

omg the filename pun is the best part

Next strip we're going to learn that she's carrying the child of a Mongolian firefighter.

But poop isn't gross just because, it's gross because it can transmit disease. Isn't that the whole reason she's a neat freak?

>Guess I don't have a soul then.
>But for real tho, I don't see the appeal in the music, I think it just comes down to personal preference at this point.
Fair enough. Also I think nostalgia also plays into. I grew up with listening to her on the radio
What this user said is also true

>Isn't that the whole reason she's a neat freak?
No, she was neat freak because it was cute, but since the readers rejected the authors new precious snowflake he took that away from us as an act of revenge.

I just realized that OCD Hannelore would be the most logical character for a human/robot romance. At least more than Faye. Think about it.

She can't get close to human men because they're all human and sweaty and dirty and poop and etc. But robots in comparison could be nice, clean, and sterile. Jeph could have had Hannelore keep her OCD and hook up with some firefighter-bot. Even works into her family background.

Attached: Clean+and+pretty_2b5e51_4702716.jpg (638x696, 155K)

would _have_ been the most logical. Now she's apparently OCD-free, and free to jump on the next available dong, robot or otherwise.

For better or worse, we live in a world where you can't beat people up for having shit taste in music.

OCD was the mental illness that was cool to pretend to have way back when she was introduced. Now OCD is passe and you need to have some weird combination of gender and sexuality issues to be hip.

way back in the first thousand strips, Hanners dad sent her a prototype humanoid body for AI (before it was retconned that they’ve always existed) and they mentioned how it would make a good boyfriend for her but she didn’t want to go along with it. then, later on, she turned down Station, the AI of her fathers orbiting space station . Jeff just prefers to do the opposite of what makes sense

Hannelore didn't just do that out of the blue though. When the comic bothered to show it, she's been gradually overexposing herself to stimuli, like hugging people or working at a coffee shop and get sweaty and dirty.

It was a couple pages before that one, Redhead asks brown girl if she like raisin bread and she says shes never had raisins before because she's poor he tries to point out that raisins are super cheap and she insists that they are too expensive for her.

But Jeph has basically already done that. Faye went to a single AA meeting and was cured as a result. When Jeph realized he never actually brought up the alcoholism again after a long period, he made a single strip where Faye held a bottle and cried a little, but didn't drink. And since the sudden escalation from "party girl who binges occasionally" to full blown alcoholic, that's about all he's done on the subject. You'd think Jeph at least could handle something he has direct experience with, but, if I didn't know differently, I'd accuse him of having no idea what substance abuse is like and making it up as he goes along.

Oh, right. They went to a bar and Faye was very mildly uncomfortable. I guess that counts.
