maybe its just me but it looks like people named david have oppinions on religion *waits for willis to say no in a overcomplicated and mind rapeing way*
Her last roommate must have been much worse than the stoners I know. With a few exceptions, drugs make people easier to ignore. Meanwhile, someone addicted to Christianity is going to want to share their bliss with you.
Unless, you know, the stoner is turning your room into a hothouse and you happen to not like the smoke.
One winter in high school our stoners managed to smoke up the entire art hall. Not to much of a stretch to assume one person could make a small room just as chokingly horrible over the course of a semester.
Heck, I’m going into a Masters for a year and I’m in university owned accommodation, and at least one of the people I’ve met is an undergraduate fresher. (We get our own rooms but we share a kitchen).
I think it’s because they stick postgrads, mature students and international students together though where I’m going. (Which she is in the latters case).
At the time, it was a subject I was too timid to poke with a stick, so it didn’t come up much. Joyce isn’t going to bring it up in every strip or anything, but her religious views will be more obvious this go-round.
It has nothing to do with this strip- all that howling and rolling around on the floor you could probably hear all the way in Ohio was what had to do with this strip- but mousing over the “David Willis- Shortpacked” link on the twitterfeed to the right brings up “http://twitter.com/Shortpacked” in the status bar, and clicking on it opens a new window to http://twitter.com/Shortpacked, but rightclicking on it and selecting “Open in new tab” opens a new tab to… http://www.joyceandwalky.com/ . But only in WinXP Opera 10.62, not Firefox 3.6.
…WTF? Not actually important in any way, but still baffling.
Scary thing is, this looks like what would happen if First year me (Joyce) and Second year me (Sarah) met. I mean I’m not exactly like either at either time in my undergraduate days, but this scene would have been similar if we’d met in a time warp, or at least Sarah’s line would have been running round in my mind as First Year me said that.
This what makes the ‘not changing’ line from earlier strips seem even more obvious to me.
I’ve always thought Joyce was high on something. And does this mean Joyce is going to have the same reaction to ‘premarital hanky-panky’ as before? Because I’m quite certain there’s this couple of people in the lobby who’re daring to hold hands.
I wouldn’t worry too much about the “high on Jesus” line, folks. As a Christian myself, I can tell you it’s something “we” (in quotes, note) say to tell people we don’t need drugs. Only a few people who use that line are a bit “out of it” naturally.
From a strictly neutral standpoint (being christian myself) if you take into account all the visions God(Jesus being a human incarnation of God) I’m guessing LSD because of all the visions of the future…though I almost said LCD…which also gives you visions…just usually of the past
LSD might sound obvious but it doesn’t take into account its unique side effects, like Jesus doesn’t make you immune to him if you take him regularly for three days.
Religion is really its own drug, with euphoric effects triggered by stimulating a very specific region of the brain responsible for a sensation dubbed by scientists “religious ecstasy”. (This doesn’t disprove God or anything; one could say this is how the presence of God makes itself known to man in the material world, if one believes such things.) It’s not a chemical you put in your bloodstream, but otherwise it works just like drugs do, it alters your perceptions (for the better, some would say), it makes you addicted (almost everything does!), it’s a very benevolent drug compared to like heroin that’s incredibly damaging to the body and mind, but the question isn’t “if” Jesus was a drug which is what I was getting to.
Ah Sarah… maybe you’ll get to have some character development this time through.
Well, she did have some development. She hooked up with Joe for awhile and eventually became a lawyer and had an impact on the end of It’s Walky!
She DID things, but she was always the same in her characterization
Counterpoint: Who didn’t hook up with Joe?
Danny.
Ah! Plenty of time to fix that this time round then.
We’re due for a new batch of homosexuals.
The retroactive Leslie Gravatar on that comment is just perfect…
Walky. Ethan.
Joyce
The devil is a major downer.
THIS is the Joyce we all know and love. None of that “being well-adjusted” shit.
How is being religious not well-adjusted?
I don’t think it’s religion that makes her mal-adjusted but *that line in particular*.
maybe its just me but it looks like people named david have oppinions on religion *waits for willis to say no in a overcomplicated and mind rapeing way*
Im also athiest o.o
I’ve used a line close to that before when somebody asked if I wanted to buy drugs from them… AT high school… in the hall…
But then again I’m like the poster child of being mal-adjusted
The taking instructional stories and insisting to other people that they’re true.
Her last roommate must have been much worse than the stoners I know. With a few exceptions, drugs make people easier to ignore. Meanwhile, someone addicted to Christianity is going to want to share their bliss with you.

I have absolutely never heard of a college rooming an incoming Freshman with a Sophomore.
When I was a sophomore, my roommate was a freshman. It happens.
Heck, when I was a JUNIOR I was roomed with a freshman. However, I was a mid-year transfer student, so maybe that had something to do with it…
My roommate in the one year I went to college was a sophomore when I was a freshman.
Heck, I’m going into a Masters for a year and I’m in university owned accommodation, and at least one of the people I’ve met is an undergraduate fresher. (We get our own rooms but we share a kitchen).
I think it’s because they stick postgrads, mature students and international students together though where I’m going. (Which she is in the latters case).
Joyce was never really this… outspoken about her Churchiness last time around.
At the time, it was a subject I was too timid to poke with a stick, so it didn’t come up much. Joyce isn’t going to bring it up in every strip or anything, but her religious views will be more obvious this go-round.
As long as she’s not like Mary, she’ll be likable.
P.S. Please don’t bring back Mary.
Oops!
This definitely warrants a DYW.
Glad to see Joyce is still paired up with Sarah.
Your avatar is hardcore!

Y’know, even with the same religiousity as before, I think new-Joyce is less naive — Joyce-prime would probably have had to ask what a stoner was…
Scary thing is, this looks like what would happen if First year me (Joyce) and Second year me (Sarah) met. I mean I’m not exactly like either at either time in my undergraduate days, but this scene would have been similar if we’d met in a time warp, or at least Sarah’s line would have been running round in my mind as First Year me said that.

Well it could of been worse for roommates. At least it wasen’t Jesse’s roomate Charity on Undergrads.
I’ve always thought Joyce was high on something. And does this mean Joyce is going to have the same reaction to ‘premarital hanky-panky’ as before? Because I’m quite certain there’s this couple of people in the lobby who’re daring to hold hands.
She certainly reacted strongly on her twitter when someone linked her to a porn site.
My bet is it was Mike or Joe.
It was Joe.
Mike was too busy doing her mother.
For a nickel.
I wouldn’t worry too much about the “high on Jesus” line, folks. As a Christian myself, I can tell you it’s something “we” (in quotes, note) say to tell people we don’t need drugs. Only a few people who use that line are a bit “out of it” naturally.
Surprising amount of these girls at my university. Jesus will Save US!!!!!!!!
The same thing happened to my brother. Suuuucked/
It begs the question, What sort of drug would Jesus be? Dope or LSD maybe?
From a strictly neutral standpoint (being christian myself) if you take into account all the visions God(Jesus being a human incarnation of God) I’m guessing LSD because of all the visions of the future…though I almost said LCD…which also gives you visions…just usually of the past
LSD might sound obvious but it doesn’t take into account its unique side effects, like Jesus doesn’t make you immune to him if you take him regularly for three days.

Oh, wow. Going back and reading this now, it’s always really stunning how much Willis has worked out in advance.
You know
I legitimately thought she was joking when she said that…
Sarah’s expression
*ROFL*
I’m not sure if this is actually a step up from a stoner.
