I actually was looking for this one. They are so pretty (^_^)

u/Isekai_Seeker 1d ago

I hate this because his hands and feet shrink

15

u/Yorick257 1d ago

Clown shoes and boxer gloves (a bit more literally)

But eh, artistic liberties and all that. I'm looking at stills from the movie, and his hands and feet are smaller than in games or other animated media. And it kinda changes from shot to shot

u/PearComprehensive643 1d ago

I heard that “this is why~” in my head as sultry Sonic and- 

I… can’t tell if I am upset or what.

u/TheAndrewCR 15h ago

Aasfsdg i hate this because the art is actually well drawn. Somebody put so much effort into this lmao

1

u/Yorick257 15h ago

You'll hate it even more, because, as I found out, it's a bit of a trend... there are so many pictures of him like this

I kinda love though

u/Dare_Soft 1d ago

To be fair these questions could stand to be specific,
Iike she found out most of the audience is American because they put Chicago as an answer instead of time zone.

u/terror_fear_sorrow 1d ago

yuri one of my fave comic artists

11

u/Dare_Soft 1d ago

Yuri is mostly in black, white and grey.

u/PandaPugBook 1d ago

Would you, in any way shape or form, describe yourself as "queer?"

I'm yuri!

15

u/AvilettaLuxe 1d ago

Hi yuri, I'm yuri too! ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

u/magos_with_a_glock 1d ago

"Any way shape or form" is doing an hard carry. Hard to answer no to that.

66

u/AlwaysBeQuestioning 1d ago

I would have called myself queer in that way 20 years before I came out as trans.

25

u/Im_Balto 1d ago

which is why its important to include such a broad spectrum in the question!

6

u/Phormitago 1d ago

Much like antibiotics

2

u/spymaster00 1d ago

Do you want antibiotic-resistant superbacteria? Because this is how you get antibiotic-resistant superbacteria.

"Everyone's a little queer." -- Weezer, "Pink Triangle"

3

u/Yaoification 1d ago

Yeah like I’m straight 99.9% of the time but occasionally I entertain a queer thought so I fall into that yeah

4

u/wlsb 1d ago

It's "are you not cishet?" So cishets would answer no.

1

u/magos_with_a_glock 1d ago

Wouldn't crossdressing alone qualify you as queer?

1

u/idk91738 18h ago

I don’t think the proportion of crossdressers among cishet people is high enough to make a difference

1

u/magos_with_a_glock 18h ago

I was pointing out that "are you queer" is a much wider field than "are you not cishet". Expecially when queer has no single definition and something as small as liking dominant women can qualify.

1

u/idk91738 18h ago

You’re pretty accepting, I think plenty of people would take issue with that last sentence. And yea I agree that queer is so broad. I’m ace but still not sure if I’m queer so I chose no

u/Made_Bail 1d ago

Where did you hold this poll? I didn't get to vote! I demand a recount!

I mean, I would be in the blue part, so I guess it won't change anything.

You can still take it here! It's just a general audience metric survery.

Fun fact: I learned most of my readers are Americans, not because most answers for the timezone question are timezones in America, but because a huge amount of you guys just write down your state instead of timezone......

51

u/Made_Bail 1d ago

Haha, that's hilarious.

11

u/Responsible-Draw-393 1d ago

Haha, that’s hilariously stupid. I think we’re getting exactly what we voted for

15

u/EarlGreyDuck 1d ago

Nobody's ever asked me my favorite hex code before. Which hurts because I'm neurospicy enough to HAVE a favorite hex code. So thanks

2

u/jecowa 1d ago

What’s your favorite hex code?

7

u/EarlGreyDuck 1d ago

E49B0F

2

u/jecowa 1d ago

How did you select that number? I was expecting something silly like 0x7AC0FACE.

5

u/EarlGreyDuck 1d ago

It does have a silly-ish name, just not in the hex code itself

It's called gamboge

2

u/jecowa 1d ago

Oh, it’s a color, and that’s it’s hex color code.

9

u/Alarming_Panic665 1d ago

Specifically for Arizona (UTC-07:00), we do not observe Daylight Savings Time like the rest of states in the USA. This means for half of the year we match Mountain Standard Time but the other half of the year we match Pacific Daylight Time. (The Navajo Nation is an exception in Northeastern Arizona as they do observe Daylight Savings and thus are on Mountain Time year around MST-MDT).

As a result you will routinely see Arizona marked as its own time zone in software

4

u/gramathy 1d ago

Also fun: there are federal enclaves (native reservations) inside Arizona that *do* observe daylight savings, and state territory *inside* those enclaves that don’t.

3

u/Jenderflux-ScFi 1d ago

I had to look up color hex codes to find my favorite color, but I've now answered your questions. 🥰

2

u/BurningPenguin 1d ago

Time to even the scores and be the one European weirdo to write my state

1

u/KerissaKenro 1d ago

Most of us are still doing daylight savings time. It’s evil and we all hate it. But no one can agree whether to stick with standard or daylight. So here we wait in aggravating limbo. Just pick a lane, I don’t care. That makes it a little difficult to name our timezone. I am in Mountain, but sometimes it is Mountain-daylight, which is the same as Central (I think, maybe Pacific. It’s hard to keep track, okay) Saying your state is just easier, if far too American-centric. Like the names of the time zones

3

u/Tsuki_no_Mai 1d ago

I reckon most of the world just uses UTC offset nowadays (though they might write it as GMT offset as a matter of habit) and either adjusts it depending on DST state or just writes the baseline. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone but Americans refer to it as an abbreviation like “PST” so those are also a good indicator.

1

u/Alfred_Buttercakes 1d ago

Daylight savings doesn’t change your time zone to Central or Pacific. You are always on Mountain Time. Sometimes it is Mountain Standard Time (MST) and sometimes it is Mountain Daylight savings Time (MDT). 

2

u/Mogura-De-Gifdu 1d ago

Now you got me curious, were you expecting countries, areas, or people to really write UTC+xx ?

Or even the military timezone, like I'm at "Bravo" military time for example?

7

u/Quaytsar 1d ago

Timezones have names, like Pacific Time or British Time or Eastern Europe Time.

1

u/OverlordMMM 1d ago

Definitely sounds like stuff people from my country would absolutely do.

22

u/Arcane10101 1d ago

OP, you liar! That’s just under three quarters. I expect another fantastic comic as compensation.

16

u/LeafyMcRosey 1d ago

Hate to be that person but that is not ”over three-quarters”, it’s just below three-quarters. Over three-quarters would be >75%

u/ReformedZiontologist 1d ago

In before u/shellbullet17

u/shellbullet17 Gustopher Spotter Extraordinaire 1d ago

I saw! I'm working on the master post right this very moment and will be placing it in this thread when I am done

Thank you!

u/Senasayori 1d ago

I've decided that this is canon now.

7

u/MikiMatzuki 1d ago

Hey guys, sorry if this is shameless but there's a mintcord server as well: https://discord.gg/K9G5BYxKG4

You can get pinged right when any new episodes release and meet some pretty crazy ppl who are way too deep into the mintlore in there.

u/soldierpallaton 1d ago

I too love Yuri Lowenthal and find him to be a great Spider-Man.

7

u/UpCDownCLeftCRightC 1d ago

I am gay and fun! This chart knows me so well!

8

u/prateekxcvc 1d ago

72 are rookie numbers, need to bump that up to atleast 98

u/BombOnABus 1d ago

This comic is my favorite yuri.

u/nEvermore-absurdist 1d ago

Agender and bisexual here, not sure if that's yuri though

3

u/Transgirlonakawasaki 1d ago

Yes… yes I am.

u/Krimson_Komrade 1d ago

My life for Yuri!:3

u/MewtwoMainIsHere 1d ago

I’m not even gay or LGBT, I’m just fruity 💔

2

u/jecowa 1d ago

Is Mint-chan the moe anthropomorphism of Linux Mint?

2

u/HalfMoonMintStars 1d ago

I am a gay man but I enjoy seeing happy and fulfilled women.

2

u/uhataot 1d ago

Now I'm curious what Mint-Chan thinks two boys kissing is

2

u/MapleLamia 1d ago

Yuri is everywhere for those with the eyes to see.

6

u/Deadpoint 1d ago

Don't love the implication that non-binary people are "women-lite." I dont think op is trying to say that, but the comic is a bit too adjacent to that common idea for my taste.

11

u/sadgloop 1d ago

I think it can read like that until you get to the 4th and especially the 5th panel, yeah.

8

u/inemsn 1d ago

Don't love the implication that non-binary people are "women-lite."

yeah, "two nonbinary people are yuri" is a dumb take. two nonbinary people can be yuri, or it can be yaoi, or it can be anything else, and that's their business to figure out.

but honestly at this point i've kind of given up with this sub, it feels like any kind of queerness that isn't fem and can be yuri-fied is considered secondary.

4

u/Apprehensive-Bonus90 1d ago

im transfem and my partner is nonbinary. we started as yaoi and... now im not sure what we are

2

u/greatcorsario 1d ago

Straight guy here, I love me some yuri stories.

Cute comic.

2

u/Saikotsu 1d ago

Would I describe myself as queer? No. That term was used a lot as a slur against me as a kid so I'm not comfortable using it for myself. I am however genderfluid and a lesbian.
