Spacey02111

There is a Fluttershy joke waiting to be made here.....

BobC

Daaaaaaaang.

Michael Boettger

And their other manifestations, Rah Rah and Yipee.

Chason

Get it right, their name is Yaaaaaaaay. That's 8 'a's

Kurist Zero

I'm half expecting a Fonz joke in the next few pages... "Oh I have a cousin called 'Eyyyyyy' too"

Well, I busted out cackling at the last panel, silly as it may be :)

Nicholas Lopez

She walked right into that one. She should have known it from the start.

Shawn K. Younkin

Jim Feldman

Brooks Moses
>>24547756

Yeah, but she hasn't been getting it back for a while now, so what's the difference? :)

Matt

Let's learn an old swear... GOD DAMN IT, i LOVE this strip!

awgiedawgie

"Diminutive" would be a more appropriate word for the shortening of "Yaaaaaaaay" to "Yay". A "hypocorism" is a pet name that is generally unrelated to one's given name... for example, "Spookybot" is a hypocorism (but for pet names, I personally prefer the word "sobriquet").

Katrina Urmson

*snickers* Okay, laughed out loud at last panel. And also. Melon. >_< I wonder what she made for dinner...

Carl Fink

Not that I'm a nerd or anything, but I already knew hypocorism. In fact, true story, I have edited the Wikipedia article on "Hypocorism".

Hawkeye

Roko is totally me at the end of this strip.

R L

Roko, pls, you should have SEEN that one coming.

I believe that it should be Yay A Newfreind, without the period the letter simply represents itself as with a few Presidents and prime minister's over the years.

Cass Redgrave

First you make Bubbles progressively cuter until she's as cute as can be and then you set your sights on Roko and make me even gayer for these damn robots

Griffon

This is self-indulgent and I love it so much

Dylan T

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH YAY IS NOW MY BEST FRIEND

Bonnie Fiddis

I choose to believe that the new word is yaaaaaaaay or whatever was written in the description.

Aleks

The linguistic "diminutive" doesn't refer to the length of the word though, but to particular endings and the words made with them to indicate smallness. In English, such endings include -et and -ette (piglet, dinette, cigarette, diskette) as well as -ie and -y (doggy, bootie, Bobby, Debbie). So Yaaaaaaaayette is a diminutive of Yaaaaaaaay, Yay is a hypocorism, and Yayette is a diminutive of the hypocorism.

Abhayakara

"Hypocorism," my shiny metal ass.

Nancie

If Yay thinks you're odd...

Jared Cyr

It's a better name than many StarWars names...

Sam

Spooky bot / Yay is amazing

AcheronYYC

So good, genuinely LOL :)

EnterTheHero

Christ, I can hear them saying it...

Bill Hall

Dammit, Jeph, I almost choked on a bite of cheese because of this!

Uniquitous

Still chuckling days later.

I imagined that in Fluttershy’s voice.
