Boris Pelakh

As per https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2203, it's Hubbert

Mark

I'm familiar with it from the composer Zoltán Kodály, having sung several pieces of his although none recently.

Clifton Royston

Wasn't Pintsize asking for an invitation as "Worst Man"?

David Paul

It generally means they feel called out and 100% agree with it. The other iteration that I know is "I represent that remark".

Ursus Ridens

Damn. I'm so old that when I was in college we only had molecules, and sometimes just cules.

Guilherme Monteiro

Good to see Bubbles is still keeping a lookout.

Joe

read the Taltos series, by Steven Karl Zoltán Brust!!

Holly Nelson

I miss Gabby. I really liked her.

Joe

nice Governor Jesse the body callout there, Jeph

ValdVin

Co-writer credit.

Josh Moberly

I have never encountered a name as glorious as Zoltan before, and now I must find a way to use it in something!

Carl Cravens

I'm starting to feel like this is like How I Met Your Mother, where an entire season takes place during three days at a wedding. :laughing:

enchantedsleeper

I bet they have (it would be strange if they hadn't by now given how serious Marten and Claire are and how long they've been together). But we are overdue for them to meet in-comic :D

Comics Ladybird

Apparently, the fact Marten is about to leave town for good after years of working for Tai is completely secondary to her parents to the fact he used to fuck their new daughter-in-law…

enchantedsleeper

Re-reading the comics it's amazing just how long Tai carried that torch for Dora. Since pretty much the beginning, actually. It's great that it was returned and even better that they've stayed the course :D

enchantedsleeper

I mean Emily was one of the library interns, we've seen her more recently than that. We haven't seen Gaby since then because Gaby apparently quit the internship

enchantedsleeper

Sliiightly prompted xD But only slightly

enchantedsleeper

She's Tai's mum so let's make that 70:30 for "yes" xD

Stephen Wells

We don't know whether Irena is into that and currently I would rate that at 50/50 :)

Philip Masters

Just so long as Anh doesn't overhear this and start looking at Zoltan.

Quinn

Not only that but the specific circumstances with Marten greatly exacerbated her anxieties because of the whole thing with Faye and wondering if he still had feelings for her. Meanwhile Tai is literally the exact opposite, someone who's done with casual polyamory and wants to settle down with a partner and initiated things due to having a huge and long established crush and attraction to Dora specifically.

ValdVin

Relationship goals: Having your long-attached life partner describe you as an "absolute stallion", only sliiightly prompted (ETA from formerly unprompted).

Hugh Eckert

Zoltan is a legit Hungarian name, derived from "Sultan".

Ray S, 2nd nickname

If anyone was going to have a dad named Zoltan, it was going to be Tai. Or one of the library interns we haven't seen since, what, 2016? **sigh** Okay, maybe Steve.

Miyaa

Oh Emily. Wonder where she is in this shindig?

Duncan

Do you mean 'resent', or am I missing a reference?

Duncan

Good word, tantamount. Almost as good as shenanigans.

allanfranta

I'm sure it would not be awkward as Veronica will have him well in hand.

Eric Sieck

Melissa Wilson

There’s also a Zoltan in the Witcher series…

Randall Norman Pick

"How do they find me? Is it me?" - Marten, possibly.

The Queer Art Pagan

Everyone at this wedding is batshit, and I'm here for it. X3

legobil

She has the Crow’s Nest. Is there a storm brewing on the horizon?

Halloween Jack

Zoltan's real name is Jeremy.

Mark

Claire become shorter since her introduction, didn't she?

Paul Josef Veselovsky

Hibbard I thought.

Marshall

Ahoy Captain Bubbles!!

legobil

I think a lot of Dora’s anxieties has mellowed out over the passage of time in this comic. Maybe they’re not gone, but she has gotten better at dealing with her emotions compared to when she and Marten was dating.

legobil

Can’t wait for that meeting now. Veronica and Zoltan I mean. And. Or as a ship, mind you! I just wanna to see/hear their conversation.

Tannerbot

Yes. They've seen more to not filter.

Matthew Harris

I thought it was Huppert or something

enchantedsleeper

You know what, I do buy that it did xD

enchantedsleeper

Is that somehow worse than young people without a filter?

enchantedsleeper

Wasn't Zoltan Kaparthy a character in My Fair Lady? (Fictional, of course, but the name came from somewhere)

Boots McGoot

way to sidestep the question Marten... i'm sure it's fine 😅

Diptych

I wonder if Tai and Dora have bonded over their parents apparently being from all over Europe?

Clifton Royston

Trying to find what new trouble Faye is getting into with the guests?

David Paul

Definitely a typo: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2203

David Paul

Dora approves: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3022 PS: Not the one I was looking for, but it works.

David Paul

Could be doing a Sam Scan, maybe?

Miyaa

Speaking of which, why hasn’t Aurelia & Veronica met yet?

Miyaa

GDI

That Blair Guy

I’m looking forward to the comic awkwardness of Dora’s dad finally meeting Marten’s mom. We haven’t seen either of them yet, and I’m wondering about the implications. (Like, did he say something inappropriate and someone’s going to discover him tied up in the guest bedroom?) https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1044

Ian Dunbar

I dunno, Jesse Ventura might sue for gimmick infringement.

Joseph Bonnar

An emusing comment, Bagge. (I shall go hide now.)

Mindi Young

Clairface!

Bagge

He must have had a field day with Tai's stories about the college polycules

Bagge

Detecting cloaked emus?

Alex Rahr

I think it'd be funnier to introduce him to Claire's mom and light the fuse...

Joseph Bonnar

On Pintsize watch, perhaps?

Maurice Kessler

Seems Marten and Tai have more in common than I thought. Dang.

Nulgar

I'm sure he's met enough via his Mom.

Nulgar

Bubbles scanning the perimeter.

Mark Nach

At least he knows that to put his mom with him might just be tantamount to pulling the pin on a grenade and running for cover.

Alphones Armorman, suitperson

Dad Martin say that outlook, that would be... awkward, three times as much as this

Mitsuki Ayane

... Zoltan... Hubbard? I see you Jeph. "our mommy says our daddy is a sex machine" Kindergarten Cop. ~<3

Am Queue

Aaand patreon fucked the order of comments again

Am Queue

I resemble that remark. I am not horrid.

Pejo

Claire Augustus likes this.

JMK

I have never met Zoltan but I know we’d be best friends.

Graydon Armstrong

I needed to see Claire's face through the rest of that convo.

Steve Martino

It's on both of those things, it's a quote from Predator lol

Graydon Armstrong

Sexual Tyrannosaurus should be a mug. Or better yet, a sleepshirt.

Sean Kinlin

These folks seem to be the Blue Hubbard variety.

Sean Kinlin

Ayyyyy!

Sammitch

Marten is about to intentionally assert dominance in this interaction.

kaitou

"Love rapture?" "No, Love Raptor."

Creeperkry

Is that something that's passed on genetically? Does that make his daughter a Sexual Tairannosaurus? :)

William Cole

Sexual Tyrannosaurus were a great band until they sold out and signed with a major label.

William Cole

I'd love to check in on the nudists one of these days. They knew how to party!

Miyaa

They do get on like a house on fire.

William Cole

Indeed!

William Cole

I had a colleague named Zoltan. They're real!

Harsh and Joan

I thought it was Hubbert?

Holly Nelson

The wedding may be in need of more parent types. Cue Emily's folks and the cookie making nudists from the lake! (However, that upstairs bedroom might be a bit small, I’m afraid.)

Captain Button

Don't You need chewing tobacco for that?

Creeperkry

I prefer tricerabottoms! Heyo!

MayLaBelle

He and Dora's dad seem to share the TMI tendency

Amelia Lewis

Don't you see Bubbles gazing alertly off into the distance? They're far enough away that the crash is just a muffled noise against the background of conversation.

Brendan Luster

as father's day gifts go... there have been worse

Daryl Sawyer

I was waiting for this comment. As a matter of fact, I went to high school with a guy named Zoltan.

Daryl Sawyer

Tyrannosaurus Sex

Doc Gumby

He's definitely got the facial hair of a Zoltan.

JD

i have never been so uncomfortable on someone else's behalf. but also i appreciate the Predator reference

Doug DeJulio

Given those in-laws, I suddenly feel that Dora is extremely lucky.

Miyaa

Zoltan looks like his career involved being a fortune teller at a traveling circus and he got out before the Shriners stopped being a viable social mystical fraternity and thus, no more circuses.

Nicholas Lopez

Claire's face is so friggin cute

MikeT

100% that's a stage name. No one is actually called that IRL.

Todd Ellner

Buy it! But don't by the heavy weight. By the Copro Lite version

Alex Burka

Hubbard? Not Hubbert?

Todd Ellner

That moment when you realize the Olds have had more and more varied sex than you ever will. And that your generation didn't invent Farking

Alcaria Swain

I was reading so much manga recently that I read this backwards and was deeply confused

Timothy Roller

Can't do better than a sexual triceratops.

Cody Renton

I dunno, Zoltan's a pretty great name

Mad Marie

I hope bubbles finds me soon.

Cody Renton

You're not my real dad

Mad Marie

don't buy the tyrannosaurus dropping shirt

Taigan

Marten needs to meet more older people with sex hang ups.

Bill Silvia

Pintsize's invitation involved some...negotiations.

Peter McDevitt

the human equivalent of "LIGHT FUSE THEN RUN AWAY."

Bill Silvia

If this were a televised sitcom, our next update would be an offscreen crash and Anh leaving in tears covered in punch.

MikeT

If you aren't willing to weaponise your family against others, then no one will remember your name

Shawn K. Younkin

He will never beat World's Best Grandma Marten.

Carrie

Yes!!

djellafine

Sam n Emmett? Making sure they're keeping their noses clean?

Carrie

Epic! 🤣😂

Thomas Baxter

To the person who told me that my person in the bolo was going to end up being one of Tai's parental units: I salute you. Still to be determined: is that a silhouette of a horse, or Nessie. Spoiler: I want it to be Nessie, as a Sex Therapist for Cryptids is a life goal.
