Pigtails-Devil-Girl is freakin' adorable and I love her.
That is all.
Also, does she have a name? She's green, right?

Disorganized can be a good thing, see?

Yes, the joke is that she's supposed to be convincing people to sell their souls but she's naive and innocent and incompetent at it and ends up giving moral support instead and now she can't even make the sales pitch because she can't find the application form.
I personally hope she never makes a sale.

A rhetorical question counts as a statement, does it not?
And by "does it not?" I mean that it does.

She doesn't really have a name cemented in canon yet, no. However, a few strips she's in are tagged as Lime on the archives so that may or may not be what he's planning on naming her - but since it hasn't really been implemented in canon, nor has any newer strips she's appeared in been tagged as such, it's not entirely confirmed so we're not really certain.
Some call her Lime, others call her Fern, I call her Harlequin or Greenie most of the time... a friend of mine calls her Clover... another friend likes the idea of her name being Kelly... But none of these names are canon. So basically just call her whatever you want until Tat finally gives us a strip wherein she is referred to by name. Ain't nobody gonna stop you.
*thumbs up*

 In that case, her name shall be Pigtails.
Even though it's probably actually Lime.

Is it still a rhetorical question if it's answered in such a way as was not originally intended by the asker?
That's not a rhetorical question, by the way.

Yes. Answering a rhetorical question in such a way would be an expression of disagreement.
The exchange earlier in this thread could have just as well went:
"I don't think there's a joke here."
"I do, it's (...)"

it could! but i think whether a question is rhetorical or not, it isn't a figure of speech that explicitly conveys a truth value (i.e., you couldn't say it's true or false)
consider that its negative, "is there (no / not a) joke here?" is pretty much exactly the same thing, which (barring sarcasm) isn't how statements work
also, can we have discussions like this more often |
