All Might All Night

That triangle of Marigold might just be the cutest...

Kaylynn Sabik

Though panel two is great, as well!

DF

Panel three in particular shows just how much Jeph has developed his style, really good

DF

Japan has a lot of this sort of thing. And for a recent SFW webcomic example: <a href="https://megatokyo.com/strip/1509" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://megatokyo.com/strip/1509</a>

Captain Button

The Caffeinator

I am thinking of themes for the copulation cubes. The Tardis police box, I think. Possibly a phone booth like Superman used to change in. Conceivably one like the lavatory in a punk club, though that may be hopelessly dated for all I know. The cockpit of a crashing plane, the whole thing tilted nose down and video of approaching ocean playing where the windshield would be. A mural of a desert landscape, a full moon, and a lion sniffing at you curiously. And, of course, the low-cost ones, completely plastered with targeted ads.

SHIT

Jeph Jacques

Maybe, though I’ve heard the phrase “anime trash” thrown about self-referentially and self-mockingly by anime enthusiasts; a Telegram group I’m in for like-minded friends has it as its name, for instance. Possibly Dora’s going for that angle, which has less of a sting to it.

Foal Papers

Emily needs to invent wrist devices that will allow Dale to shoot a stream of coffee into desperate urbanites' maws when their caffeination level is dangerously depleted... I suppose he's too old to be the Caffeine Teen and I think coffee man is taken... maybe just Coffee of Doom Mascot is sufficient? Lol

Kerin Schiesser

Dora's hitting the "Judgey McJudgerson" a little hard, no?

Jason Zions

Oh my, Dora, that was brilliant.

Andrew Mitchell

Minus the desinfectant, mostly

Jan Gampe

My hero coffeedoomia, surely.

Evgeniy Semyonov

The dangers of going to therapy. While you enjoy freedom from various neuroses, some of your friends can go "You lost all of your funny quirks, now you are too sensible and boring, boo!" I think Dora is still interested in shenanigans, she just knows how to choose time and place for them.

Evgeniy Semyonov

Meh, Dora's just jealous :P

SpookyPenguin

Coffeedemia is not a person. Just as academia (the original word used in the above reference) is not a person. Academia is everything about an academic institution - life, activity, events - so coffeedemia would then be everything about the coffee shop. Dale is the hero.

awgiedawgie

This whole arrangement is very efficient

Bagge

"CITIZEN, YOU SEEM DANGEROUSLY UNDER-COFFENATED!" "Gasp! The coffeedemia!" "Indeed, and I'm here to grant you the gift of coffee so your day will stay productive. "NOT SO FAST!" "Gasp! It's PIZZA GIRL!"

Bagge

Poor Marigold! That was very mean. 😁

Denise Webber

Was there ever going to be another reaction?

MikeT

I think Marigold might owe Emily a thank you card

Fart Captor

I want that outfit

giacomo vaghi

Those are called motels, Emily

Bagge

I think the typeface used for Marigold needs to be like 72-point extra-heavy bold, with lots of exclamation points. The above text is much too wimpy for her reaction.

Brad Knowles

Marigold: the human version of venting coolant.

awgiedawgie

Yeah, but the way she said it was so much... cleaner.

awgiedawgie

Yeah, but motels don't automatically disinfect themselves, and I know that the housekeeping staff doesn't do that great of a job at many of them.

awgiedawgie

Did Emily just suggest we make public fuck boxes?

Dylan T

Really like the dramatic panel layout!

Lars Gottlieb

Maybe with Marigold being smitten as well?

David Zabner

Desktop background sized version of Dale saying "Plus Ultra" please?

David Zabner

Oh, I see. It's a collar. Nevermind.

BobC

That was kind of mean, Dora

Mojotron

Augh! Now humans have neck seams too! MAKE IT STOP!

BobC

Ol' Spooky-Pants doesn't seem to be interested in shenanigans much these days. If she's not careful, folks might accuse her of being an "actual" adult. :D

Joshua Brumley

As long as they are self-sanitizing, it should be fine

Grace Kieser

ngl want a hoodie with a big ol' NASA on the front

Onedavewreckingcrew

Fweeee!

Chris Heg

Yaaaaay Marigild is back!

Kyle Jenkins

And, honey, we have those already. They’re called ‘motels’.

Sleepy John

She likes her coffee like she likes her men, I guess. And vice versa.

Sleepy John

I can tell you worked hard on that pun. Gold star.

Kinda Squirrely

Marigold!!!

Zach Elwyn

Sadly, I think "fuck booths" would be a thing people would use and it's horrifying.

Kuragari

Jeph knows us too well.

Miyaa

Dora's dressing very conservative these days.

Eric Christian Berg

Filthy dumpster sex!

Gary Walker

Not the basement. Dora and the spiders have a fragile truce.

Douglas E. Smith

I agree with Dora here

Brian

Emily's got a million dollar idea, there!

Grace Kieser

I love it when "plus ultra" makes it into other media.

Carl Cravens

Dora’s line has made me laugh hysterically half a dozen times already.

Don Whiteside

Good to see Dora can still dish cold snark.

Max D S

And come on Dora, at least let them use the basement.

Ted Van Roekel

Sometimes you can really hit the switch

Kyle Major

And somehow, Daftpunk starts playing...

Ted Van Roekel

Damn Dora, why you gotta be so mean?? LOL
