She’s a ninja, it’s part of the training that we get super strength without having bulging muscles, essentially just denser muscles so we can still keep up our speed.
Maybe she has started to use American spelling and words after being in the country for a fair while, after all even Arnold Schwarzenegger HAS to work with a speech coach so he can KEEP his accent, otherwise he would just sound like a typical Hollywood American.
I always wondered how he kept the accent after so many years. I always figured that at some point he just started doing the same Ahnold impression that everyone else does, and we never noticed the difference.
I know British folk who have lived in the US for years who sound exactly like Americans, and ones who have lived in the US for years whom Americans think sound British (though British think they sound Australian). Personality quirks, I think, have something to do with how much on assimilates an accent. I say this having had linguists “diagnose” my own accent as a mishmash of everything I’ve ever herad.
That accent is fake. The speech coach is so he doesn’t forget his public persona. In private he speaks more like this: “I say, I shall return. Good day, ol’ chap.” He’s not Austrian at all! 😀
…and that’s when Sal realized that she was emotionally available… for Penny. Their loud, raucous, nights of passion would become legend across the campus.
I’m a 5′ tall 100 lb. female and in my younger days, I’ve faced down guys 6′. It’s not in the tatoo or the size – it is all in the attitude.
I tell ’em lay off or I’m going to kill them, and they believe me.
So I can see where Jason is at: rofl
I actually had a high school friend tell me that the reason no one ever picked on me is that I somehow give off the impression that I’m grinning and holding up a knife at all times.
So I guess I just give off crazy vibes somehow. Yay?
With her eyes shut Penny looks sickeningly like the great Faz.
Jason looks a lot less like Faz with his long face, but he IS talking about his awesome sexual prowess. Also he’s a maths teacher, so he could draw a sick graph depicting sexuality over time(/ladies).
So, what’s being implied here? That Penny had a thing for Jason, slept with him, and only after that discovered what a bore he is, and now her feelings for him are reduced to bitter snark?

WITH TATTOOS!
WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!
FOR SCIENCE!
FOR FREEDOM!
EXCELSIOR!
FOR PONY!
TO INFINITY AND BEYOND THE IMPOSSIBLE!
FOR A NICKEL!
At The Speed of LINT!
FAAAAAAAACCCEEE
SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE
SPOOOOOOON!
For no reason!
SPOOOOOOOOOON!!!
DaJoshMaster, your comment is much more amusing when read in Penny’s voice. (The Penny in your avatar, that is, not the one in the strip.)
In the faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace?
with a %$^* in the box
Jason is now A BOX OF SCRAPS!
Her tattoos give her super strength.
I’m glad someone said it. Also her voice probably doesn’t hurt either.
Her voice gives her super strength.
(Anyone?)
Sal sounds like Applejack
Yes. I cannot hear any voice when she speaks except for Ashleigh Ball.
FRIENDSHIIIIP is magic
Don’t you mean DRAGGING is magic?
Your Mum’s magic… for a nickel!
You know who else like magic?
Hitler.
Hitler, Adolf Hitler…
Applejack has a much bigger vocabulary and, I think, speaks at a faster rate. I think Rogue from X-men Evolution is closer.
If Sal sounds anything like YGO Abridged’s Tristan, she might end up staying a virgin for a very long time.
She’s a ninja, it’s part of the training that we get super strength without having bulging muscles, essentially just denser muscles so we can still keep up our speed.
So… she’s a runelord?
Just had to comment on this just to say +1 Good Sir.
Bellflower Tattoo. I didn’t think she was Lawful enough to qualify for that prestige class, though.
Okay Jason, I’m jelly.
What flavour? 😀
Plasma, the quickest draw on the gravitars.
I’m slowly getting the hang of the Corel PHOTO-PAINT X5.
Pie Flavor!!!
Cherry Pie Flavor!
Sal’s power comes from tattoos? She must be one of the Rakyat from Far Cry 3!
…Ma, those pirates wouldn’t stand a chance against a pissed off Sal.
Or the Nameless One.
Or a ghost.
Uh…. actually Rakyat means Civilians.
Those people who made FC3 love to throw ambiguous foreign words to make it sounds cooler.
Tattoos are like equip magic cards. They boost the targets original power.
You can channel some mana to move them onto other creatures?
They die to artifact removal?
Tattos just got so much cooler.
So what’s the tramp stamp tattoos power?
Tattoos which magically give you a +6 bonus to your STR stat.
That would be the Fighter’s Tattoo.
I know I shouldn’t have gotten this Banjo tattoo.
… wait what am I saying? Of course I should. I’ma going to get a matching one. They can be friends!
Let me see, Banjo Tattoo gives you +5 on any musical based attacks.
Get a Banthulhlu tattoo!
“That is not Dead that can Eternal lie,
And over Strange Aeons even Death may die.”
Or the Dragon Tattoo. +5 on all stats plus a 50% to all elemental magic.
But becareful, a wrong design and it will raise your douche meter to +5!
WHY HASN’T TORMENT GOTTEN AN HD REMIX YET
because they are working on the sequel instead?
http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2012/12/planescape-torment-sequel-finally-in-the-works/
If Penny’s actually meant to be English (or, hell, from ANYWHERE in the British Isles), she would say “maths”, not “math”.
Yeah, that’s really bugging me too. 😛
Maybe she has started to use American spelling and words after being in the country for a fair while, after all even Arnold Schwarzenegger HAS to work with a speech coach so he can KEEP his accent, otherwise he would just sound like a typical Hollywood American.
I always wondered how he kept the accent after so many years. I always figured that at some point he just started doing the same Ahnold impression that everyone else does, and we never noticed the difference.
His voice is pretty much his trademark, so it is in his best interest to keep it.
I know British folk who have lived in the US for years who sound exactly like Americans, and ones who have lived in the US for years whom Americans think sound British (though British think they sound Australian). Personality quirks, I think, have something to do with how much on assimilates an accent. I say this having had linguists “diagnose” my own accent as a mishmash of everything I’ve ever herad.
My late grandmother kept her German accent all her life, even though she came to Israel in a rather young age.
That accent is fake. The speech coach is so he doesn’t forget his public persona. In private he speaks more like this: “I say, I shall return. Good day, ol’ chap.” He’s not Austrian at all! 😀
And noone wants that.
That doesn’t make sense…accents are not that easy to lose.
I actually called this a few comic back infact. I knew someone would say it wrong eventually.
Its the bowtie.
It spins around and makes anyone looking at it get all sleepy.
Hypnotizes them into thinking it was a great night of sex and debauchery when really we just watched Monty Python in our underwear.
Are you suggesting that Monty Python < sex and debauchery?
It certainly couldn’t hurt to do them both at once.
When in your proper element? So…the Tardis?
I’m sorry, the correct answer was “Boron”.
Sorry but you must phrase your answer as a question.
That is also incorrect. It is the Element of Generosity.
…and that’s when Sal realized that she was emotionally available… for Penny. Their loud, raucous, nights of passion would become legend across the campus.
So the Penny/Sal ship is a speedboat with multiple two stroke engines?
It’s so fast that it goes around the world and crashes into itself.
Does that make time go backwards?
No, that makes time go asymmetrically since its all wibbly wobly to begin with.
I’m a 5′ tall 100 lb. female and in my younger days, I’ve faced down guys 6′. It’s not in the tatoo or the size – it is all in the attitude.

So I can see where Jason is at: rofl
I actually had a high school friend tell me that the reason no one ever picked on me is that I somehow give off the impression that I’m grinning and holding up a knife at all times.
So I guess I just give off crazy vibes somehow. Yay?
Lucky. I have to grow out my facial hair and stop showering to give off that same effect.
Personally I just grin and hold a knife up at all times, it works wonders.
I’ve been doing that for a while, and everybody still seems to think i’m a nice guy!
I’m not seeing the Symbol of Torment anywhere on her, Jason, so you don’t have any excuses.
I don’t even see an anchor or a heart that says mom.
Or upside down heart that says wow.
Sure you’re a force, Jason. SURE you are.
Hey, it’s the stick you should be watching out for.
Remember what Roosevelt said speak quietly and carry a big stick. He speaks quietly so I’m assuming he has a big stick
I speak quietly. I don’t have a big stick. Maybe I should start yelling.
Yelling basically tells everyone that your stick isn’t very big.
I guess.
In this context.
Somehow I have a hard time picturing Jason as a pimpdaddy.
Wait, Jason was hammering the nail with Penny?
Yup, he was tonking her right up the skidaddle.
I can’t believe Jason was painting the fence with Penny.
I bet he varnished her table while they were at it.
And polish her mirror.
I hope she at least made his bed.
She offered him a tuppenny-upright.
They were engaged in the rarest of activities, coitus-uninterruptus.
Tattoos? I hope Sal is not ghost.
I get the feeling that there is only one desk in that office, and that jason and penny destroyed the othe one in advertenly.
Talk about pounding the stake.
I wish I were being dragged around by a girl with tattoos.
The girl with the Draggin’ Tattoos.
You beat me to it. Good job!
Kinky
Sorry, but it just feels wrong for Calvin to “say” that.
My god, now I feel sorry for… Penny.
I would love to hear Penny and Jason talk dirty.
It will be repeat of Fridays storm of euphemisms.
Maths. Oh, you silly brits.
Is Jason the reason Penny turns evil? (Assuming she is evil in this universe)
With her eyes shut Penny looks sickeningly like the great Faz.
Jason looks a lot less like Faz with his long face, but he IS talking about his awesome sexual prowess. Also he’s a maths teacher, so he could draw a sick graph depicting sexuality over time(/ladies).
You have to watch out for those tattoo’d ladies man. 😛
Tattoos must be quite powerful. I have none, so maybe that’s why I can’t lift anything heavier than a bowling ball. 🙂
What you guys don’t know is that when Sal gets mad her tattoo spreads across her entire body and also hands grow out of her back.
…WHY am I getting Niles/Daphne vibes from Jason and Penny?
YOU NAILED IT!!!
No, apparently Jason did.
Badum, tish.
Gone for a week, and you miss the most fascinating stuff.
Like Penny showing up. And Jason proclaiming that he knows “The Sexual Force.”
Weird.
It’s the english accent. For some reason I assume he has one.
So, what’s being implied here? That Penny had a thing for Jason, slept with him, and only after that discovered what a bore he is, and now her feelings for him are reduced to bitter snark?
I think Penny still HAS a thing for Jason – but he was like Dorothy and she was like Danny sort of thing.
That’s my take, too.
He is being dragged around because tatoos add +5 to strength and to intimidation.
Well Intimidation is strength based skill.
The redhead is ridiculously hot!
Second.
All in favour, say ai!
Ai.
