It's a continuation of the nose-fetish gag from the previous comic.

Re: 0322 - No time to shoes!

Gotta wonder what the policy says about improvised footwear...

Also, is Zoa fidgeting?
Zoa appears to be straddling the couch rather than sitting on a cushion. I'm noi sure why.

Re: 0201 - no, *you're* the monster!

This one hits home a little hard for me, because yeah, someone very close to me has some anger issues - but honestly, it's complicated by those anger issues being apparently genetic . How much control does any human being have over their thoughts and beliefs, really? More than none, but not always a...

Re: 0199 - Robokill/Shame cycle

I don't know that lust can be considered a vice for Zoa, necessarily. Life for a semi-independent robot person appears to be...precarious, at best.

Re: 0186 - A new leaf

A lew Lee-f indeed.

I hope they realize that part of being nice involves slowing down a bit and listening to other people, too. Even if they're not legally people.

And sheesh, I forgot about the accidental moleskin, thanks for noting that.

Re: 0169 - Sorry seems to be the easiest word - or Robot sna

For Gib's sake, Caleb, don't just turn off your pain sensors without good reason! Pain serves a valuable purpose!

Re: 0150 - To do-nothing list

I just can't see any way here except that Doc is wrong. Even if "it" is appropriate for Zoa, that's still A pronoun. Even if Zoa doesn't count as a "person", there's clearly a mind there. If I were going to go somewhere and bring my housecat along, I'd certainly use "we"...
