Transcript:
Panel 1:
Lisa (to Jenny, who is still sewing a bear): The thing is, Jenny, I just want my guild to like me. I never wanted them to think I’m a jerk!
Panel 2:
Jenny: How is bragging going to get them to like you?
Lisa: Well, I just figured if I constantly remind them why they should like me, they will! Right?
Panel 3: Jenny grabs a cupcake from the end table.
Panel 4:
Jenny (holding the cupcake): See this cupcake?
Lisa: Uh huh.
Panel 5:
Jenny (stuffing the cupcake in Lisa’s mouth): It’s the yummiest cupcake in the world! Here, let me shove this most delicious cupcake down your throat all at once!
Panel 6:
Jenny (licking her fingers): See how that works?
Lisa (making a yuck face): Ex, that cupcake bragged all over me.

Arrogant cupcakes..
(mentally adds a speechbubble from Lisa’s stomach with ‘JEALOUS NOOB!” inside it…)
OK, now it’s less ego, and more like she’s got a mental block. Or her mind’s regressed to when she was seven, whatever. If you want acknowledgement, it’s not bad to remind people of what you’re good at, but there are limits to that. If you’re looking for affection, it’s pretty much the complete opposite, IMO; being modest about yourself, and moreover treating others as equals to you in all respects, including your “l33t skillz” seems to make friends far faster.
In other related news, was that cupcake filled with black dye, or is Lisa part-giraffe?
ah this made me lol irl . next time somone is being elitist i’ll be like hey you see this cupcake? haha priceless
I like how Jenny keeps a cupcake on her side table for such an eventuality.
Welcome to social life lessions 101.
1) The Cake is a lie. Only the Cupcakes will survive.
2) It’s called elitist for a reason. We are better than they are and shouldn’t feel bad about their lack of elitism. They should accept who they are.
3) I’m pretty sure an individual can have cupcakes bragged all over them at a very classy establishment if they are into that type of thing.
Does she keep the table around just to hold Explanation Cupcakes? Hmm…
god ive got a terrible mind because that last panel looks so wrong to me.
lol, don’t feel bad I was thinking the same thing about that last panel…
Me too. Especially since she said “bragged all over me”
The last panel says many things if its just the last panel…
I just read the whole comic in one day.. And wow it was awesome.
I am also glad to see a WoW comic that is more so alli based, I am not against the horde, just my main is alli.
I laughed so hard at the faces in panel 5 and 6. That was hilarious!
2 ladies and cupcake all over. yes my mind is wrong too .
I love that Jenny was already back to making another teddy. =D
Wow, I rarely post on comics, but this was the most epic use of physical metaphors I have ever seen. I believe I like Jenny better than Lisa at this point. Which is funny cos i couldn’t stand her in the beginning. Also, Jenny licking her fingers in the last panel is a nice touch.
This is only the second double-high strip I can recall of NPC comic. The first, assuming memory hasn’t promised me cake, was Mike and Lisa walking at night, with Super-Squirrel running rampant. Keen!
Hehe. I love the cupcake analogy. IT WORKS!
i always leave a cupcake on the end table for this very reason.
