It's been over 30 years for my spouse and I, and I still remember the interminable photo shoot. I suspect it may be worse when the photographer is a relative (or a family friend, in our case). Luckily for the attendees, my best man got my spouse some food or there would have been blood.

Thnx. (•‿•) My neurodivergence and gayness give me lots to laugh about with my friends later because of how often I melt people's brains about things using those as super powers. 🤘🤪🤘

People can be so damned rude! I find the cool stare, half smile, "Why does that concern you so much?" response quite effective. Wishing you success in dealing with the dolts, because, Your Life, Your Business.
Matt Pedone
Our venue set aside plates of food for us (dinner was buffet style). I didn't think we'd need them, but about an hour after heading back to our room, I was very grateful.
Ursus Ridens
....so to speak.
Sleepy John
I once took a course in speaking before a crowd, and the FIRST feedback I got was not to hold my hands in front of my crotch. Putting them on my head as a gesture of surrender was not accepted as an alternative.
Sleepy John
Congratulations, and don't forget to stretch your smile muscles periodically by making faces at your partner.
ValdVin
They are each bearing up well. Neither are into The Man (sic) Who Laughs territory.
ValdVin
Sometimes the endorphins of rigorous physical activity have to go somewhere.
Carrie
LOL weddings and kids. It makes me laugh so often at weddings.... I got used to never being able to have kids while a teenager, the religious in my family thought they could pray it to happen until a few years ago. I had already had no bits inside or out yet that could be relevant but they thought they could make it happen through prayers. I have been to many weddings and randos I didn't know were adamant about it happening too. Our society is so weird about it.

And we find out that Claire is a mother of twins thanks to Cubetown technology.
Opus the Poet
Would that be egg fusion technology or something else?
Opus the Poet
Still with the old chassis.

Heh heh, dongle
Clifton Royston
As long as it's not Barry.
Jim Feldman
where is his robotic dildo?
Ben Duguid
I read that as "we're working on tech to get babies from two people regardless of sex" i.e. "how cute the babies [from Tai and Dora] would be", rather than "IVF robots"

Hehe... first stop after my wedding was Arby's drive-thru.
Alasdair Mackintosh
Username checks out...
Randall Norman Pick
Barely remembered to eat at our wedding it was so busy. I really feel that.
BookBeard
"Ol' Boaty? When did you get here?"
Doc Gumby
@Leak, he got it from Canada of course.
Halloween Jack
So many Erector Set jokes...
el_zilcho
That was for his old model, it’s not compatible with his current one without using several dongles
Matt Pedone
And then Marten showing up and revealing the time skip was just Pintsize screwing around.
Matt Pedone
Fun story about the "kids" question at weddings: I'm the youngest of three kids, and as my older siblings either changed their names or had all girls, it fell to me to "continue the family name", per my dad. He'd bring it up pretty much any time I saw him. When I started dating my partner, we were open about not wanting kids, to which he'd usually roll his eyes. At our wedding, my father took us aside to give us his blessing (he's very religious, we're not, but it was important to him), and told us that whether we had kids or not, he was happy for us. We don't agree on much anymore (our sporadic conversations are VERY superficial), but that was a very nice, VERY surprising moment from him.
William Cole
Pintsize's +1 is a tugboat.
Bagge
Don't know where he found it? Faye and Bubbles MADE it for him.
Philip Masters
Pintsize gonna Pintsize.
elle
god this is such a good page. it made me very happy this fine monday morning. not as happy at pintsize maybe but still
Lucy Glorius
Welcome back!
MayLaBelle
Cut to Pintsize: "And that's how I met your mothers."
panpolypuff
So glad you're in a better situation now! ❤️
enchantedsleeper
Man, 2012...
Stephen Wells
Tai knows perfectly well what the deal is :)
Stephen Wells
If they DID ask Sven to donate sperm, May would volunteer to collect it :)
djellafine
A Claire-worthy pun, Shinymelon
Bagge
Hannelore is helping!
Alasdair Mackintosh
We don't know where he found it, but he's definitely got one...
Jamie Stone
I have my wedding this Friday so I have been taking notes this entire arc.
darklion
This needs retconning, it's too old
Todd Ellner
Maybe, maybe not. The resulting kids would be close physical kin to Dora and her parents which is a plus.
Todd Ellner
Everyone not closely related to either of them with male primary sex organs (testes) contributes. Mix it all together and let Chance decide
Leak
Pintsize - don't ask where he got it from, tho...
Carl G Knoblock
That now famous pole vaulter needed to do something about it before the jump.
Kilonum
Did I just read a year's worth of comics because my patreon subscription lapsed while I was homeless and I just resubbed? Yes. Was it worth the 5 hours of time? Also yes.
legobil
It depends, if you got an erection or not. And whether you want to show it or not.
Daryl Sawyer
Whoever it is that is "working on that technology".
Andrea Andrew
What about Ned?
Creeperkry
Clearly, only the strongest, smartest, most virile man in all of Northampton is fit to provide healthy sperms for our loving couple. And that would be Jimbo.
Michael Opinante
Death Battle between Marten and Dale.
Jose Alfredo Villalobos
I feel like I'm getting mixed messages about what to do about my crotch.
Tim Starliper
What about honeymoon pics?
BookBeard
@Davus, here ya go https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2240
William Cole
I hope he washed his hands…
William Cole
This is what the robo-dong was for all along!
Magic Chopstick Games
CRUSHBOT IS BRANCHING OUT PROFESSIONALLY.
Todd Ellner
One word: Bubbles
Todd Ellner
The turkey baster is still an effective and viable technology. So is the old fashioned way assuming they have a donor in mind
Andrea Andrew
I meant who is gonna provide the sperm.
Todd Ellner
No surrogate needed assuming both are in normal health
Davus Otho
Actually, I don't remember the specific comic, but hanners said that people are working on it, so I assume it isn't ready...yet.
Andrea Andrew
Who would be the surrogate for Dora and Tai?
David Paul
Yes please!
SilverbackRon
I love this wedding so much. Thanks for having us on the invitations, Jeph! 😀 💖
SilverbackRon
OK, Bill, I didn't even think it until you said it, but using Sven's sperm to artificially impregnate Tai would indeed keep an actual genetic lineage alive...
pseudoclever
How surprised would you be if there were an ACTUAL 10 year time skip next comic
Miyaa
Tomorrow: Steve gets a call from FedEx. He gets a surprise gift: the General Mills 25 day holiday festivities cereal calendar.
Pejo
I'm an enthusiast, not a pro, & was asked & agreed to do my normal thing at a sibling's wedding, as a backup to the professional they hired. Well, the "professional" flaked out the day of & I got promoted. I didn't even know all the poses & such you were supposed to get! I wasn't supposed to need to know that! Not the least stressful wedding I've ever been to! But they seemed happy w/ my work anyway.
BookBeard
I mean, he does have a hentai tentacle as well. It's important to keep your options open. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1366
Doc Gumby
I'm sure there's a robot for that in Jeph's universe.
Melissa Wilson
I can’t wait to enjoy the QC installments of the 2050s! Hopefully Patreon will be compatible with all the latest optical implant & holographic delivery technologies.
Joseph Bonnar
I wanna see the photos, Jeph!
Kenneth Carlile
Similar at my wedding. We have great pictures from a friend who was at the wedding (and later went on to do it professionally) and terrible pictures from the person we paid to do the photography (who was not a professional).
Joseph Bonnar
Would NOT having an invite even slow him down?
Erika Ramos
It's Dora's Dad!
darklion
I'm gonna assume that since we have all kinds of tech not seen in the real world, we also have easily obtainable IVF regardless of the donor sex.
Zygo
With Pintsize, after asking the basic questions like "do you have an erection?" and "why do you have an erection?", we must also ask, "how do you have an erection?" and "whose erection do you have?"
Zygo
Pintsize doesn't need to be in a photo for someone to be asking him to remove his hands from his crotch.
Aerin Moriarty
Why does that photographer look so familiar to me? 🤔
Green
Something about Pintsize being included in the Friends-Of photos makes my heart fuzzy 😊
William Burns
You keep saying that word. I do think it means what you think it means.
Nikki
How did Pintsize get an invite?
MikeT
What's the collective term for baby bisexuals again? :D
Shinymelon Fearnow
This is conceivable.
Elizabeth Wallace
What, not some tentacular hentai appendage?
rhekke
Pintsize is everybody's friend. Everyone's horrible, horrible friend they cannot seem to get rid of...
Fart Captor
Faye finally finished that metal dick and balls he commissioned during the time skip
Yelling Bird
Ahh, the return of the rictus grin...
BookBeard
I only just noticed that the photographer is Dora's dad (who is a professional photographer). https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1044
Bill Silvia
Well, Dora would definitely veto the "use a sibling's sperm so the baby is genetically related" trick. And by veto I mean they might not find the body of anyone who suggests it.
Elberik
Fun Fact: the photographer at my sister's wedding screwed up so we have almost no photos of the event. It's mostly pictures taken on guest's phones.
BookBeard
But Pintsize commissioned a new erection from Faye and Bubbles just for formal occasions! It's got a bowtie on and everything!
Creeperkry
Sore smile muscles means you've been skipping smile day at the gym. Tsk tsk!
Elberik
At least 7 people's fetishes were triggered by the last panel.
David Durant
Are the rate the comic progresses - some time in the mid 2050s 😂
Chauncey
Dora is going to bring Sam under her tutelage and train ‘em in the ways of the goths.
Reece Chenault
I was wondering the exact same.
Bill Silvia
He would change back for the day if it meant he might be able to display a comical erection.
voyager-ngc5195
Let's be honest, Pintsize would in no way attempt to hide it.
Mark Thomas
But what would their children look? XD
ValdVin
I'm hoping Pintsize's new chassis's height might move him back from the front row.
Bill Silvia
Pintsize gets the FRIEND label? Or is this an all-inclusive, everyone who's invited is either friend or family-type of friend?
Skye
omg do we get wedding pics?
Tannerbot
Poor Tai. She's marrying into the madhouse. And she really should have seen it coming.
Doc Gumby
Smart business decision, have kids and make them run the coffee shop.
Inflim
So, when are they having kids?
