if she gets a permanent position at smif

Jackson Bockus

This whole thing is getting way too relatable.

BobC

Well, that went well.

Cody Renton

I despise small towns but I would absolutely live in Fucksburg for the meme

Adam Friedlander

I looked to see if there was one of those new novelty TLDs for Montana. There wasn't, or I would have made an ill-advised domain purchase.

Populuxe

"Fucktopia?" "Fuchtopia." "Spell it."

Captain Button

Are the residents required by law to give one?

Mitchell Sealy

This comic took place in the author's hometown originally, right? And then a few years ago the author moved to Canada? Wonder if this could be used as an excuse to start writing about his new surroundings. Marten and Claire move off to the author's new city and the story follows them.

Anonymous

So far that went about as well as any of Marten and Claire's important discussions.

They really seem to be much better at communicating than Marten's previous relationships. Last time they needed a helpful nudge from Pintsize but I feel like they're also just more in sync with eachother than Marten has been with previous girlfriends. Don't feel like Marten himself has changed that much.

Marten is the main character only by default, QC is more of an ensemble piece.

Andje Lewkowicz-Lalonde

no way would we follow martin and claire; we would occasionally have them cameo in the comic that would become about faye bubbles marigold and co. same as hannelore now is. Dora and tai may also be moving on. I think jeph is more interested in the stories some of his newer characters still have to tell. if alice grove taught me anything its that hes more attached to the story arc then the characters and isnt above ending things if it fits his vision.

Captain Button

Pintsize would be totally into moving there. Maybe May also.

Miyaa

The less said about the origins of Ramsbottom, WV the better.

A little skeptical, are we? Marten is the inaugural character. If anyone would remain a main character after leaving town, it's him. We've already seen a prolonged diversion without him in it, while the story focused on more riveting news, but the story always comes back around to him.

The side view panel is my favorite ever

kaitou

She'll probably get an offer in Intercourse, PA. (Yes, it exists.)

I am saved from many ill-advised domain purchases by those that have squatted before me.

Funny enough, I live in Fucksburg, Montana. Okay, so maybe just a rural Montana town. But if ever a place SHOULD be called Fucksburg, this is it. It'd be better with a cool librarian though.

Chris Gallaty

Oddly when they asked for nominations for mayor once the town was established, there were, in fact, zero Fuchs given.

Bagge

Heh, I'll bet you ANYTHING that Claire already had this conversation planed, and in panel 2 she referenced that particular index card in her brain. "Oh, it's time for THIS scenario now. Let's talk." She's that kind of person.

Dylan T

Claire is more mentally prepared for a relationship swaying conversation than she is for final exams. Same.

Andrew Tate

The UK has positions in Westward Ho, Hutton-Le-Hole, Sadberg and Dingle.

She's obviously given it some thought ahead of time. Her part of the conversation sounds way too well rehearsed to be off the cuff. It may have even contributed to the nervousness she attributed to the exam.

Andreas "Rowas" Lind-Sahlin

Eh, could be worse ... Could be Mensträsk, Sweden. (direct translation: Menstruation Swamp)

ysth

Movin' to Montana soon Gonna be a Dental Floss tycoon

Mark

Better than Bland (Missouri), Boring (Oregon) or Dull (Ohio).

Michael Lazare

Life is like a hurricane in fucksburg

Thomas Boys

He was a good man. He gave fuchs about others.

Kuragari

Otto Fuchs was a character in some literary thing I read in 7th grade. We all had fun with that one.

mano

If she is prepared to move abroad, she might get a job in Fucking, Austria.

Dean Reilly

The people of Fucksburg should feel lucky- the town could have been named after Jonas' mother!

Jason Doege

If you aren't OK with moving to Fucksburg, Montana then don't apply to jobs in Fucksburg, Montana. If you let someone get to the point of giving you an offer and you're like, "No, I don't think I want to move", you have seriously jerked their chain, wasted their time and have demonstrated yourself to be a flake of a human being. Willingness to move is kind of the ante for applying in the first place.

People who are desperate for a new job (like recent graduates) may think that they're ok with moving to Fucksburg, Montana until they get that job offer. Or they may be good with the move if the salary will be $X, but when they get the offer it's $X-$1000. They get to decide if that salary is good enough.

my favorite double-take "What the..." town name i've ever seen on a road sign is Kickapoo (TX). am i aware that it's the name of a Native American/indiginous Mexican tribe? yes. is it FUCKING HILARIOUS when you think of it in english-speaking terms? also yes.

Lightsabr2

Don't move to Montana. It's way too crowded and snows 13 months out of the year. The leading cause of death is Grizzly Bear, at a rate of 28,000/year. Amazon Prime thinks you're in Canada. The mosquitoes are worse than in Florida, and it's not really legal to own a vehicle that gets better than 10 mpg.

Any conversation that doesn't end with Marten being hit with Ursula is a good conversation :-)

I think that Claire is being eased off-stage. The previous strip presents her as having rather tepid, restrained passions, and in this one, both of them are remarkably casual about the thought of her leaving. I think maybe Jeph wants to get out from under having a character to whom he is determined to do justice, but whose situation he may not wholly understand. I could be wrong. Telling the future from comic strips is not yet a science. Maybe Claire will get work in the Knowledge Corridor. (The Knowledge Corridor runs between the Inchoate Fantasy Room and the Abstraction Archives, with Nightmare Alley branching off of it. No, that is a lie. It is the college-heavy area around Northampton.) Maybe they will wind up living together in Joggins, Nova Scotia. I am wrong about half the time. This could be one of those times. It looks to me like she is being de-accessioned, as all librarians eventually are, though.

When I was a traveling consultant I found a real place called Toadsuck, Arkansas. I don’t think there is a library there.

I don't know if a close-up profile is *new* but it is certainly unusual; I like it.

Philip D Jones

There ain’t no Fucksburg Montana! I looked it up. There is a Ficksburg South Africa, but that’s not the same.
