Puck is a weekly webcomic that, in the words of one fan, is "mostly irreverent humor concerning a pretty girl with freckles and a hot she-devil who wears fan-service costumes." Surreal fantasy slice-of-life crazy-type stuff about the world's funniest redhead! Updates Tuesday.
Girlfriend: I love how the tags are ‘amnesia’ and ‘towel’.
Me: There’s tags?!
…She’s been staring strangely at me for the past five minutes due to my comment. Weird.
I’ve never known what the heck to do with ‘tags’. I mean, what do the tags even do, beyond assisting in a search? I’ve always come at it with the thought that the tags might help someone find a specific comic that they remember, and put in key words related to the content. I still don’t know whether I’ve got it right.
Now for the math-y science-y part again. Its called breast physics, and its a known and solved math. It does call for some serious compute cycles to do live. There was this beach volleyball pc game where that was integrated.
Really, its some relatively uncomplex (but still non-trivial) node/edge vector-mesh models where the edges are stretchy and springy and have mass and therefore inertia.
No Colin! You’re breaking the 4th wall! 🙂
That’s bad?
When it comes to having Phoebe in the comic? No. 🙂
Nah, he would have been breaking the fourth wall if he’d said “Fan service.”
He’s already breaking the fourth wall, in a way. And honestly, I kind of dislike the term ‘fan service’ so I avoided it. Even though it’s warranted.
It would have been genre savy

There should be a list of all tags that you have ever used, and one of them should be “4th Wall break”, you could pay me to do it.
Wouldn’t be that hard to add that. There are few in the comic. Like, five or six.
Hee hee about 630 years old and sportin’ that schoolgirl look.
I’m waiting to see if the furry kid has improved with age.
Daphne’s design in the original comic was the one I was least happy with. It’s been a long, slow refining process for her design.
And your evil nemesis… err… honored critic still isn’t happy with her.
He never is. That’s fine.
Three’s Company ?
Va-va-voom !
Well, actually, four’s a crowd in this house. And five’s on the way, so…
All it needs is jiggle physics…
Nah. They never get the physics right.
@Buggle
“Jiggle Physics” would be raunchy.
(oh, wait…)

The game you speak of was Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball. And its sequels. Not that I would know anything about that, of course.
“Jiggle Physics”
traceee, Traceee, TRACEEE !!!
Who knew that, in addition to her many other talents, TRACEEE is a Wiz at Math !
Tho, admittedly, PHOEBE is certainly capable of Advanced AlgeBRA.
I’d groan if you hadn’t already made me sprain my groandeceps major.
