Chapter: Story 15: I Dream of Three Wishes
Characters: Jeanie
You didn’t think CD would miss the chance to celebrate a big milestone with a major event, did you?
He even asked Jeanie to pose for us…
Though I think she might be a bit ticked off once she learns the answer to her question. I’ll be far away when that happens.
EDIT: WOW, folks! This page just broke the record for the most comments EVER left on a single page of Jeanie Bottle! Y’all really liked this one!
I Googled for a name for the new girl and found this:
What does Tae Tae mean in Korean?
fun fact: when you write taetae in korean which is 태태 and then you switch to english keyboard but type at the same spot it’s gonna be xoxo which means kiss hug kiss hug so in conclusion taehyung deserves a lot of kisses and hugs aye thank u for coming to my ted talk.
Hahaha, intriguing idea!
Also, welcome to Page 2 of the comments for this strip! A feature I didn’t even know this website had! lol
Why did you choose Tae Tae, and why do you assume she’s Korean?
Question #2: I don’t know. Mostly at random.
Question #1: I Googled a Korean woman’s name that begins with T, as I thought that the guy’s name did too.
Tae is something like T and Google suggested Tae Tae because of the fun fact.
WOW! We’ve cracked so many comments the site had to start a new page.
I think the criteria is fifty primary comments on a page. The reply comments probably don’t count.
Well…. It was a double sized / #700 / A character gets transmorgified issue of the comic.
Also, some of those comments were really long.
Yup! Lots and lots to talk about on this page!
The last page is very hilarious.
I was thinking a good name for Red shirt stoner/ girl could Mikako Rouyaa (remember her) . Mikako is Japanese for “Beautiful Night Child and Rouyaa is Arab for Dream. Her name would translate as Beautiful Dream. She will be Green shirt stoner’s dream girl. Or possibly his nightmare.
We already have a Rouyaa character. Remember?
yes and I confess I miss her.
Was the wish for a ‘Girlfriend’ vague enough to be non-romantic?
It’s his formerly male friend who is now a girl.
So ‘Girl Friend’ as opposed to ‘Girlfriend’?
Parsing the wish back to front, it’s “A friend who is a girl who is hot who is super.”
Were I an English Major I could explain how each descriptor and their order affects and/or modifies the others.
Well, normally a genie can’t alter human free will (comic #138). So Jeanie shouldn’t be able to make red shirt gal like green shirt guy romantically.
However, red shirt literally wished for Jeanie to give him a million unspecified wishes. I’m pretty sure if a person wishes for his will to be tampered with, it circumvents the prohibition on it. Like the sea captain wished Jeanie to “make a dutiful wife” and got his will changed to want to be a dutiful wife.
Plus red shirt pissed off Jeanie, so Jeanie has probably retroactively changed a bunch of those million wishes (desires) running through her head into pleasing her new boyfriend.
She’s also got all the magic Blue stole, so who knows what she’s capable of at this point?
I dont really have anything to say, just want to see if we can make it to 3 pages. Great page like always.
Man, I keep checking back here and the comments just keep increasing and increasing each time. Now there’s two pages of comments? That’s impressive.
Also, it’s become like a naming competition for redshirt here… Just so CD doesn’t make it an official competition because I always win those. 😉
first name Suzy. Last name Wong. Problem of being a girl friend solved.
Always? Sticking with T…
Japanese:
Tamako (first sign of Chinese zodiac)
Tomoka (friend… fitting considering the circumstances)
Toshimi (fast learner… perhaps now she knows better than to boke the bear)
Tsukasa (beginning… as in a new life)
Chinese:
Ting (graceful or a slim person)
Vietnamese:
Thao (respectful)
Thi (single woman)
Trinh (virgin… but for how long?)
@Shadowrnnr Well, I’ve won two, anyway, got a cameo in Sailorsun and also a side-series comic on Deviantart (the whole TG Grenades thing) out of them, though the character meant to be me was absolutely nothing like me in personality admittedly. lol
Also, I do like Tamako and Tomoka. Those are nice suggests, strictly speaking of the names themselves. Personally, I tend to think this character probably has a more American first name, so spitballing random ideas:
Tobi (male name would have been Toby)
Billie (male would have been Billy)
Jaesa (Jason)
Tara (okay, I don’t know what the male name would be for this, it’s just a cool “T” girl’s name)
Congrats on your wins. I have one in JB also (although it wasn’t a contest, I just suggested a name for a character, and it stuck).
I think the fact that the character appears Asian is what sparked the “T” suggestions (Tae Tae was the first one).
@Shadowrnnr Which character was that?
Oh, I see. As a person with a T name myself, I definitely have a bias in favor of such names. lol
@NotShuttingUp: Shula, Guano’s mother (it means Flame, to go with her angry eyes).
Cool. I love how Jeanie is fulfilling their wishes. Your comic is SO awesome.
Ha-ha! Saw it coming!
Asking for a stack of money and a nicer car is painfully redundant. You might as well wish for the money and then use an insignificant fraction of it on a car. Then there’s the problem of, inevitably that’s either counterfeited or stolen money (you can’t just make up new money, the same serial numbers will already be in use somewhere), and you don’t know if it’s a stolen car or something illegal or dangerous about it, like maybe it has an ejector seat that is triggered by a hidden button you will eventually hit accidentally.
Why does no one think of asking for biological immortality or superpowers? My wishes would be for 1. complete control over my own biology (or possibly all biology, so I could change or heal others, depending on how powerful the genie is), 2. eternal invincible health except for intentional suicide (so I wouldn’t be stuck forever if I ever wanted to end it), 3. and the power to teleport through spacetime to any desired destination in the universe in the past or future. There is redundancy between 1 and 2, but rather than combining them into one wish and having one left over, I would want to have them be separate just to cover all bases against a sneaky genie that maybe gives me shapeshifting ability but still leaves me easy for others to kill, or makes me invulnerable but growing older and older. Or if the genie is powerful enough, just using one single wish to ask for omnipotence, or omnipotence except for causing paradoxes. Seriously why is everyone so stupid in these things….
