Manic Pixie Dream Girl

[Dragoon]

So I guess the past story arc is just gone now? Oh well nice to see the old Erin back again.

 

[The Artificially Prolonged]

Well you've certainly got the Manic part down cold. And you wonder why people push you out of windows.

Needs to work on the pixie part a bit.

captcha: filthy dirty mess. Indeed a switch-blade like that will make quite a mess.

 

[Fappy]

She brings a switchblade to work? God damn.

That's supposed to be a balisong. Or butterfly knife if you're girlishly inclined (like me, wheee). The blade just looks a litle weird.

Also... as funny as random violent outbursts are from Erin, this makes no goddamn sense to me. Am I missing something here?

Oh yeah, you're right. I think I was focused too much on the blade itself.

 

[Moonlight Butterfly]

Erin looks like Chucky in that last panel, not sure if like or want.

The moment they said octopus hat i was half expecting a cameo of podipuss and Alix from name game

Would have been sooooo awesome if that was the case.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Oh joy, more of this crap. See you in about two months when the writer remembers that this is supposed to be a video game web comic! And not about some psychotic boring unlikable "Protagonist" that exists solely to string the video game jokes together!

I have to disagree with this sentiment, I feel like satirical or humorous cartoons or stories are a lot more fun to relate to and laugh at when the characters have been developed, as opposed to random unrelated jokes with no continuous context.

It's the same reason South Park will always be better than Family Guy to me.

 

[Daaaah Whoosh]

Best. Hat. Ever.

Also, I keep forgetting that Erin is a video game journalist. After the whole car wreck arc, I just assumed she was some sort of The Dude-esque character. But I guess her job is kind of like bowling, if her co-workers are the pins.

 

[The Lugz]

she really gawn nutz today.
Erin is having a bad week i guess? or did someone watch the first south-park series on Netflix recently?

 

[lacktheknack]

I think I missed the joke this time, guys.

Now, if she had pulled out Pyramid Head's Great Knife...

 

[scorptatious]

Quirky is kind of an understatement when describing Erin.

 

[Blunderboy]

And we've confirmed Erin is now a *****.

 

[Something Amyss]

did i miss something? or is this just gonna be some new story arc to explain this new charactor?

I just assumed it was related to the recent controversy regarding She Who Must Not Be Named On Gaming Sites.

 

[FEichinger]

That said ... Gotta agree on the "And you wonder why people push you out of windows" thing. Erin's getting even crazier! =D

My quote sense is tingling!
Seriously, was I the only one who thought Erin was being a total ***** to that guy?

Well, it all started nice and dandy. The whole turned-down-and-soooooo-sure-shes-gonna-get-him thing was perfect. Then she went all crazy in the crackshack ... And when he held her out the window, it was pretty much now-shes-gone-entirely-insane ...
It does fit her, but she really has social issues.

 

[Something Amyss]

And we've confirmed Erin is now a *****.

Wait, now?

Quirky is kind of an understatement when describing Erin.

Yeah, but if you say anything more harsh, she will cut you.

For realz.

 

[Rainforce]

The moment they said octopus hat i was half expecting a cameo of podipuss and Alix from name game

you too huh?

I think we should discuss the real issue here... where did this girl come from o.o

who cares about the girl? the hat god damn it, someone get me that hat D:

 

[Blunderboy]

And we've confirmed Erin is now a *****.

Wait, now?

Well we always knew but now it's been confirmed.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Work those people skills, Erin.

why? she wouldn't be half as fun to watch if she got a long with others

 

[WanderingFool]

So Erin goes from snarky, to slightly crazy (seeing videogame characters), to listening to said videogame characters, to... I dont even know how to describe what was taking place during the last arc, to now threatening people with a butterfly knife.

And we've confirmed Erin is now a *****.

Couldnt have said it better myself.

 

[Agow95]

Well, I think I can safely say things are back to normal.
