JEFBOT.172_Something’s Cookin’
Actually, I’m sure High School Musical and Barbie Horse Adventures are perfectly fine games for their target demographic. They just don’t add spice to a date the way Cooking Mama does. Trust me.
And if you’re just joining us, check out the beginning of this storyline – where jefbot invites the girl of his dreams to a beach party – by clicking here:
JEFBOT.157_Social Distortion


wow, um, thanks, Michael. i should have you answer my comments more often.
I just read the entire strip today. I like how you appeal my my demographic, half-white half-asian geekily-interested good-at-math guys with weird hair called Jeffrey
ha! so awesome. glad to know my doppelganger’s out there and doing well, Jeffrey Sun! thanks for reading through the archives and hope you’ll be sticking around for more JEFbot adventures, hapa bro.
Michael Cornacchia makes an excellent point.
MewChu, you are a douche bag of the highest order. Didn’t the thing that squeezed you out teach you that if you didn’t have something nice to say, not to say it at all?
Then again, perhaps it is Michael and I who are the douche bags–after all, we are likely responding to a remark written by a kid who has just entered middle school…
i wonder what douchebags of the lowest order would be, JM? heheh. thanks for the comment, man.
Constructive criticism, a term I actually feel adicted to, contains at least some positiv aspects, always arguing with negative aspects make criticism look pathetic. So if you just fail at criticism, try flaming, its awesome and everyone is able to place it however he feels like! (Here in germany we aren’t used to argue with people, thats why we’re beating everyone up that comes in range // irony aside, is it so hard to be a little nice, even in arguing and stuff?^^)
i see so many blogs and webcomics get spammed by griefers all the time (it’s the nature of the internet, at least here in America, for some reason), Ion, so i feel extremely fortunate that i’ve had so many intelligent, positive readers throughout the two years I’ve been doing this, and relatively few who are just here to spew venom.
Dear Mewchu. I can understand why you hate this webcomic but i cant understand why you have the time to give bad criticism. Do you like crushing dreams? Do you get off knowing that you are an internet bastard? Or do you cry yourself to sleep knowing that you cant draw for shit, not even to save your own life even if your very life depends on it. I’m not a good artist myself but that does not hinder me from appreciating good works such as Jeffbot. If you don’t like this webcomic then just don’t read it. The internet is plenty of bullcrap people like you. And with that i rest my case. Cornfather already said everything. I’m just merely enforcing.
May Cthulhu drive you insane and for the finishing touch eat your still beating heart while he is humping your mother down in your basement.
And Mewchu is an original name? Get a life.
way easier to ignore hatemongers when i have such awesome, enthusiastic readers like yourself, JF3. you guys have said all i even thought about saying, and more. i think whenever these haters appear in the future, i can just refer them to the comments on this page, and we can all move on without devoting any more time and energy to their negativity.
Sorry to let you folks down, but I get the funny feeling– call it intuition, call it having been through the bowels of the internet a few times in the past– that Mewchu is ‘trolling’. That is, for those unaware of the term, essentially ‘seeding’ a forum or comment thread with an insulting post/comment for the ‘humor’ of seeing how many people waste their time responding to the post. Individuals trolling may even enjoy the very object they use as flame-bait, and simply also enjoy pissing people off.
Number 1 rule of Internet Forums: Don’t feed the trolls. Ignore them. They’re nothing more than attention-craving idiots, and denying them attention results in their infantile attention spans going elsewhere.
hear, hear, AvA! have any anti-troll spray i could spritz this site down with?
Things continuing to look up and up, and do i detect a multi player game of footsie ‘kicking off’ in panel three? As for Mewchu i think it best i add a ditto to everyone else’s comments ‘cos i could end up in hot water for typing and posting what i’d really like to say. I doubt very much whether that [expletive deleted] is gonna even dent your ego, go spend a little of the ad revenue, or merch profits on something cool. Big kids don’t need to listen to babies, and when they get too annoying you can just shake ‘em ’til they hush up!
yes, “multiplayer footsie” is the next game they’ll be playing on their DS consoles, Deaconvorbis! i just hope jefbot doesn’t lose. heheh. and yeah, my ego’s intact. it’s all [expletive deleted] good!
lol……trolling…thats right AvA…..As the usual DND custom, we must cut these trolls to pieces and burn them.
I luuuuv touching feet.
I should say, I love “touching feet.”
“@ Jeff: Great comic! As one who has to cook for himself, I might try out Cooking Mama. (What a weird title! Makes it sound like it’s a horror-based game about matricidal cannibalism…)”
Good lord I just about spit water all over my computer reading that… freakin’ hilarious.
Fantastic webcomic. Keep up the good work. Another added to my already too-long list of comics. I really need to start sorting them.
Hey Xinda! If you should happen to find “mewchu”s actual name and address, and if something “unfortunate” should occur…. I think I might not be the only one who would testify in court that you were in Peoria at the time.
Not that that would ever happen. Just sayin’
=)
You said: “and jacob, below, is right about cel’s glyph – a thermometer inside a “c” to resemble a “power” symbol as on a computer. funny you should mention the sticker since you’ll be seeing it in future strips, but i can’t reveal more than that just yet.
”
Went back through the strips and found this one again. It was bugging me, but now I can only guess that the sticker is of Mu(?) since Cel knows him somehow. (Which I know you will reveal in due time, and now you know that I think waaaaaaaay too much about stuff. Another example: all the contents of JB’s wallet) Man I’m a weirdo. And I feel silly for not realizing that Cel’s symbol is a power button. I have one on my own computer, and never really took the time to look at it. Silly me.
