JEFBOT.159_Reality Check
The full title of this strip is JEFBOT.159_Reality Check or There’s No Comfort in 1%, but I shortened it in the title field for obvious reasons. If you’ve joined us only recently and would like clarification on the happenings in today’s comic, I’ll point you to the links below:
• JEFBOT.143_Cel
• JEFBOT.158_Always On My Mind
Yes! More Cel soon! Yay! And Jefbot is a lucky man, to get a *good* picture on his driver’s license. *grin* (Artists do get a perk, every now and then.)
believe me, jefbot’s pic looks waaaaayyyy better than the one i got in real life, Murrday!
*Does the Snoopy dance* Cel is gonna be coming back into the strips quite soon it sounds like, so YAY! Was giggling when I saw that CF has a magical leaf on even his wifebeater shirt! Digging the detailed contents of the wallet… gotta have the Best Buy card in there, a Bank Of America card and it looks like a SAG one as well? Nice license pic JB has goin’ on as well! Ok, so now Friday needs to get here faster, because I wanna see how this all plays out! Super excited!
glad you’re excited about what happens next, Spanky! hope this storyline doesn’t disappoint! and yes, it seems all the characters only buy clothing from shops that carry their insignia. heheh. and color me impressed – you ID’d all the cards in jefbot’s wallet except for one…
Yay! The return of Cel! ‘Bout time Bot got him a little sumthin’-sumthin’!
glad so many of you are enthused about Cel’s impending return, Skipperdee!
Love that the Bot’s not sure whether or not Cel is real. Sometimes it’s so hard to tell.
so true, Mandraco. especially with all the craziness that goes on around him.
I wonder if she’ll bring her “Bucket O’ Paint”?
as long as jefbot isn’t wearing any stoles, furs or pets when he and Cel meet again, he probably won’t have to worry, Hans.
loving the CF’s beach digs, the Best Buy card in ‘bots wallet and the sentiment behind questioning whether or not Cel was real… she does seem a little too good to be true.
thanks, man. “too good to be true” is right! super hot, geek friendly, arcade owning, girl gamer, etc. etc. – i’d be questioning reality if i met someone as amazing as cel in the real world, too!
CDL pic cracked me up.
glad you got a kick out of the CDL, estiveo! something about bot’s goofy smile on it makes me grin, too.
Hmmm, interesting one this. i’m like 99% certain that everyday life is just an illusion. Not sure ’bout the beach party though, having been born and lived my entire life in Scotland sun worship is definitely not on my agenda. Mostly due to the fact that as Billy Connelly once opined, ‘There are two seasons in Scotland, winter and July,’ but also sun exposure has the same effect on my skin as boiling water does to lobsters. Ah well, back to the darkened room full of ‘puters, consoles and comix.
i’m with ya, Deaconvorbis: sometimes life’s so weird and impractical, one has to question it at least 99% of the time. oh, and a “darkened room full of ‘puters, consoles and comix” sounds right up my alley. i’d much rather spend time there than on a beach. well, unless you’re talking about a beach in hawaii, and then i’d have to swap the room and tech with the sun, some spf and a surfboard.
Yes!!! She’s baaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAck!!! Love the color… So summery and fun!
Awesome job Jefbot!
thanks, dude. she’s not back quite yet, but soon!
YAY!!! I was wondering if you were only going to keep her as a two spot. ^_^ Nerds/Dorks/Geeks need love -I love all three ^^-
glad there are people like you giving us Nerds/Dorks/Geeks love, DJ. we need all we can get!
For some reason, the Best Buy card in the wallet cracked me up!
heh, cool.
Ah HA! I was wondering what happened to our love interest!
yep, she’ll be back soon, Stan.
Ooooh, Cel meets the gang! Can’t wait!
heheh. we’ll see if her chemistry with the Cornfather is as strong as it is with jefbot, Jed.
First time reader here…stumbled across your comic via GWS….Read it all today…you have a new fan!
i lovelovelove GWS, Ria (i even did a GWS guest strip for Danielle last year)! thanks for reading through JEFbot and welcome aboard!
Cel is coming back. And maybe to the beach? Sounds like a lot of Summer Lovin. Speaking of Summer, I love the bright summer colors in this strip, bot. And I love how you drew your wallet. Although, in real life, it’s a lot bigger.
heheh. true that, Mike. i’d need more panels to draw it with realistic proportions.
Aww I just realized you took down the Iron Giant pic up top, and put Up in there instead. That movie was awesome, and even more so in 3D!
thanks for noticing, Spanky! i’m going to try and update that banner more frequently in the future. and yes, Up was indeed awesome in 3d. my favorite film of the year so far!
Keep them coming Jefbot! Awesome.
thanks, man!
True Romance always has an element of fantasy to it. I’m not surprised Jeff’s not 100% sure she’s real.
great way to put it, reynard61.
And here I go commenting again on this strip! That one credit card (with the red circle) was bugging me. So I did my research and found that you have the strip “Hinomaru” showing us this credit card, and Jefbot yelling “DIE ROUND EYE!” at CF.. I’m dying laughing over here right now.
ha! i judged you too soon in my comment above, Spanky! you’re the only one who noticed this and the only reader who correctly identified all the cards in jefbot’s wallet. i might just have to send you some sort of prize.
she is imaginary.
you never know, skinny – she might just show up.
I am just delighted to see this strip so colorfull. It all just fits togwether completely. And the 99% thing – With a girl like Cel, who can blame Jeffbot for not being sure?
glad you dig the colors, Maryz! and yeah, cel’s overwhelming coolness justifies the 1% of niggling doubt on jefbot’s part, methinks.
JefBot, I’ve quite literally read ALL your comics over the past 3 days after magically stumbling on your site. Gotta say, by the time I reached the end I was disappointed. Disappointed because I had realized that now that I’m caught up, I actually have to WAIT to see another addition to the hilarious and sometimes true antics that Jefbot and etc go through. Your comic is awesome, keep up the great work.
ha! sorry to disappoint, but a big thank you for the kudos and taking the time to read through the archives, ImitationAsian! on a side note i’m intrigued by your handle – how’d you come up with the name? does imitation asian taste anything like imitation crab?
Just read through the entire strip at work. I am hooked. Very entertaining sir.
glad i could distract you from work for the amount of time it took you to read through the strips, Square110! hope you’ll join us for more in the future!
lolz……finally……celcius was a always lurking in my mind….glad to see her coming out…….lolz……and let me guess….a mishap will probably ensue at the beach…JB may or may not be
a) mangled by a crab
b) buried in the sand and forgotten
c) celcius and JB get goin “wink2″”nudge2″
i like that cel’s lurking in your mind, JF3. i’ll have to have her report back to me on what she finds there. heheh. good predictions on what’s going to happen, but not sure if anyone can guess how this storyline will end. and that’s not a challenge.
Haha xD
glad you got a laugh out of this one, Nat!
OoOoOoOOooO! Were you for serious on the prize thing you made in a comment back to me?!?
yup! you really went above and beyond identifying all that stuff, Spanky, so i’d love to give you some sort of prize. just not sure what it’ll be, yet. heheh. i’ll email you when i figure it out.
Jefbot is so crazy-funny.
