I must say I love them using the four hands in contemplation
"Main mission", huh. And one where large volumes of stuff gets classified, at that. Interesting, I had been thinking up till now that this mission was just a comprehensive exploration mission, or maybe a colonization vanguard.
Ayy, somebody's noticed my extreme foreshadowing bit. =D
Translation of the beginning parts of the alien text:
This was a triumph. I'm making a note here,
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Aperture Science.
(You can figure out the rest of the lyrics from there.)
That got a good chuckle out of me. Pretty ballsy of Gharr to just use a song from Portal in his report.
Oh, and nobody noticed in original.
If he thinks he's mad now, wait till he finds out what happened to the expedition he approved based on that report...
Also, weird site issue I've noticed: the link on the comic panel itself will occasionally point to the previous page for some reason. Reloading the page corrects the issue.
Ahhh. I see what's going on. Not a site issue, but a swipe-left/swipe-right linking configuration.
lying.. FOR SCIENCE
Very minor correction, but we only say "tear out" if the body part in question is inside the body. So I'd tear someone's heart out, or tear their tongue out. If it isn't, then we say "tear off", so I'd tear someone's arm off, or their head off. So it should read "...even if I have to tear his tail off". Very small thing, probably not worth the effort of adjusting, but just for future reference. Hopefully this is constructive and not patronizing (if it is, let me know and I won't mention these things in the future).
I really love this comic, and with this new turn I'm not sure where the plot is going.
Thanks!
I used to teach English as a second language. Old habits die hard
