History Characters / QuestionableContent

* JerkAss / LargeHam: Most of his behavior falls into one of these categories, [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold with some exceptions]].
* NightmareFetishist: [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1498 Pretty much literally.]]

* DeadpanSnarker

* CrazyAwesome: Normal people just give a simple refusal when they're asked out by a slimeball. Hannelore [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1753 somehow channeled a cultist of an Elder God]].

* YaoiFangirl

An "Anthro-PC"—basically a computer in a robot body and with enough AI to be sentient — Pintsize started off as the zany comic relief before evidently getting an overdose of 4chan. Now he's ''still'' ComicRelief, but in a more sinister way.

->'''Yelling Bird''', a [[NoIndoorVoice yelling]] [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin bird]] ([[strike: [[StealthPun presumably]] a [[VisualPun tit]]]] better: a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dickcissel dickcissel]]) who appears in occasional filler comics, usually to scream about why it was posted (usually along the lines of "[[SelfDeprecation Jeph is too drunk/lazy/disorganized to post a comic today]],") or just give its opinion on something. Doesn't seem too fond of punctuation and [[ClusterFBomb uses profanity instead]].

->'''Randy the Bandicoot''', yet another minor filler-strip character that became a fan favorite. An excited bandicoot with NoIndoorVoice who yells [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment repeated]] facts about himself.----

----

* [[YaoiFangirl Yaoi FanBOY]], if you can believe that. (Only mildly, [[RuleOfFunny played for laughs.]])

->'''Yelling Bird''', a [[NoIndoorVoice yelling]] [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin bird]] ([[StealthPun presumably]] a [[VisualPun tit]]) who appears in occasional filler comics, usually to scream about why it was posted (usually along the lines of "[[SelfDeprecation Jeph is too drunk/lazy/disorganized to post a comic today]],") or just give its opinion on something.

Despite only two appearances, she was an instant fan favourite and got her own story over the Christmas 2009 break.

An "Anthro-PC"—basically a computer in a robot body and with enough AI to be sentient—Pintsize started off as the zany comic relief before evidently getting an overdose of 4chan. Now he's ''still'' ComicRelief, but in a more sinister way.

Dora's older brother is a commercially-successful songwriter in the country-music genre, which [[AuthorTract naturally means he sold out]]. Also a {{Casanova}} of the first degree.

* InformedAbility (His music.)
** To be fair, [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1424 he admits his music's not]] ''[[WriterOnBoard good]]'', [[WriterOnBoard it's just]] ''[[WriterOnBoard commercial]]''.

*** Which would make him a variation on TheKrusty.
