Wakin' up with Chucklebot Thursday, August 15, 2002 • read strip Viewing 46 comments:

A shame we haven't seen Chucklebot in a while. Or Philippe with a rad mohawk.

Oh, so Chucklebot wasn't stalking Philippe, which would be horrible. He was just lifelessly staring at him with his dead glass eyes until repowered. To talk about A-HA.

Still doesn't explain why he was in there to begin with.

To talk about Billy Idol.

To make Phillipe chuckle.

Chuckle bot is goofy. No one thinks Billy Idol's a dish.

untrue. my friend's mother with platinum blonde hair, fake boobs, and leather skin thinks he's a major dish.

Oh no!

I think he was a major dish in the day, and I'm straight.

you make out with your dude friends though, you could totally want to make out with billy idol

A comment left by overmedicated was marked lame too many times and excluded. (marked lame by songbirdspectre, PoodleLucy, blarghamagarky)

ooh. i hate you.

your comments were in sequence with my reading within like 10 minutes of each other, but whatever you totally want to bang billy idol

Dang, the ladies ain't having NONE of that sass man. Seriously, stop cold mackin on dudes. it's ok if you're drunk, but it's not ok if you brag about it on a webcomic message board after. this is called "logic"

I can say whatever the hell I like on here, safe in the knowledge that no-one will slap me on the face or pierce my scrotum with a Brantano stilleto.

this is what the internet means to me

You might get e-kissed by a dude. We are the same age. On Internet, this might not be considered eerie or inappropriate.

No. Just weird.

Getting a stilleto scrotum pierce? That's weirder.

I'm not sure what to make of you, semiquaver.

Perhaps a hat.

Might I suggest a fine, leather-like vest?

Yeah, to be fair, this was the same for me. You're all "I made out with a dude" and "Billy Idol would totally get it" in the space of about five comics. I think you need to ask yourself some serious questions.

Man why is always the dames hatin' on me

Do I smell and just not know? I have asked myself that before.

you smell like desperation

and it makes me horny

I also knew the comment threads. Gotta watch what you write!

dude, B-cups are people too.

yeah, i would have thought b is not a good size, but once you see a b you are pleasantly surprised, and not just because you can see a boob.

big enough to matter, small enough not to be a hassle. Yay, boobs!

a chubby for your boobs.

umm. wait. no, you know what, I stand by it.

The nice guy in me wants to gasp in appreciative shock at this.

The man in me wants to high five you when my girlfriend looks away.

Leather skin

This is clearly not true. I saw him in concert around a year ago, maybe year and a half. The man is a musclebound god. I am a straight man and even I was a bit attracted. There were many girls who very excited to see him.

I would so do Billy Idol from 20 years ago...

there is a reason his snarl has been appropriated by the drag queen community.

There are people on earth who wouldn't make a dish of Billy Idol, from then or now?

Chucklebot is the Yin to Pat's yang.

I'd let Chucklebot rock my can.

Woo! A robot is totally rockin' my can!

WHAT IT IS YOU ROCK N ROLL FAGGOTS

It's the zoom-in on the last panel that makes this.

I have to say, it breaks my dang fucking heart to see these older strips scoring so low. They have a strange, spare humor... In some ways, subtler than the new stuff.

"He's funny! But he usually isn't in my room at night."
Perfect mix of relief and vague apprehension.
Empty room > Chucklebot > Alligators

If I had a dime for every time I've been described "He's funny! But he usually isn't in my room at night" I could buy, um, some night vision goggles?

The 4th panel sends my imagination to dark places I don't particularly want to visit.

Billy Idol is definitely a dish I would like to have for dinner. And I need to find a way to work 'He's funny but he usually isn't in my room at night' into conversation.

Don't worry, the time will come.

Fav'rite alt-text ever.
