My friend Jen is a perfect example of this… I think she’d do anything Martin asked her as long as he asked with his usual British charm!

I gave that bitch an English accent.
Bitches love English accents.

Then I gave her a lemon.
Things went down hill from there.

Oh God, obsessive Portal fans with ovaries. I never realized how unlucky Stephen Merchant is.
CapnJakeBob on July 5th, 2011 9:02 am

I…

Suddenly, those years of watching American TV make me want to kill myself. MY POOR ACCENT HAS SUFFERED

*Girl approaches Stephen*

Stephen: Hey, what's your name?

Girl: *jumps*

Stephen: Okay, what you're doing there is jumping. Never mind, say "apple."

Girl: *jumps again*

Little did those fans know that the accent was a lie.

I misread his name as Stephen Magnet so many times.

Seriously though… rel="nofollow">how can anyone say no to him?
Inky Blue on July 5th, 2011 10:21 am

I'm sad for my British accent, it's not the sexy one, it's a very broken Scots one, thanks to American Tv, movies, and video games I don't sound like anyone anymore.

That and I'm mute, thanks Valve for that

Which begs the question, how does one keep rabid fangirls at bay?

I'm thinking a reworked version of the Fallout 3 Repellent Stick.

1. Learn to emulate a British accent by watching many, MANY British television programs and films.

2. Make yourself look presentable (See: tall and gangly).

3. Find a place full of non-British women looking for a mate.

4. Get yourself a date easily due to previous steps.

5. At the end of the date, reveal your true accent.

6. Rinse and repeat to fuck with their minds.

I say, is there a complication? Are you angered, by Jove?
Ryven on July 5th, 2011 11:43 am

Ahm prouud to have a bitish accent :3 I shall cherish it
HughbertEsq on July 5th, 2011 11:56 am

I *may* follow in my sisters footsteps and spend my gap year in Ireland (land of the extended family) solely to replace my growing London/Jafaican accent for an Irish one.
Is that a good idea or is it doomed to make me another grumpy Hibernian?
MorningMoon on July 5th, 2011 12:08 pm

You have now read every single comment to this picture in Wheatley's voice.
ChemicalKirby on July 5th, 2011 12:50 pm

You should see how many chicks David Tennet gets ;D
RespectfulGlove on July 5th, 2011 12:53 pm

I call your Stephen Merchant, and raise you one Nolan North.

Bitches love the space.
Gregjr794 on July 5th, 2011 1:59 pm

Tall: Check
Gangly: Check
British: ……How far will "from Tennessee" get me?
Shady Kitsune on July 5th, 2011 2:03 pm

Can't blame the bitches. Wheatley was a pretty cool guy, funny too.
Then the ball of scrap backstabbed Chell and punched her down a pit with a talking potato.
Ryu_Bonkosi on July 5th, 2011 2:24 pm

Vince McMahon?
Hatmor on July 5th, 2011 2:30 pm

At least he's not a moron…
Ataeru on July 5th, 2011 3:50 pm

The girl with the black hair in the first panel of the comic looks like an employee I used to work with. 0_o;
Doctor Rover on July 5th, 2011 6:11 pm

So it seems like 1 out 3 girls are gamers.

What? didn't you get that out today's comic?
CriticalQuit on July 5th, 2011 6:14 pm

a girl I'm friends with has found herself Merchant-crazy as well. It's funny XD
Redtroopa on July 5th, 2011 8:11 pm

Wait, I thought bitches love Dragonite. But apparently bitches love British accents no matter what they come out of.
SadFace298 on July 6th, 2011 12:41 am

Sorry Australian is the sexiest accent of all time.
Passerby Boy on July 6th, 2011 1:52 am

What? Its British Accents now? Just when I spent all my game corner tokens of a Dragonite…….
Damn
Artakha on July 7th, 2011 12:17 am

The moment he gets a sore throat, karma's gonna nail him in the ass.
Artakha on July 7th, 2011 12:31 am

Wait, is that Shaun Hastings???
Strike_low on July 7th, 2011 11:53 am

I thought Killing Floor is suppose to be a video game that makes British accent so popular?
JboneDRS on July 10th, 2011 4:45 am

It's actually a Scottish or Irish accent, I can't really discern the difference.
LOL on August 1st, 2011 1:29 pm

WTF HOW THAT GIRL GOT WHEATLEY ON HER HANDS?
