      Well, he might be mixing it up with “out to get me.”

      And hey! Maybe Willis is fully aware of the correct phrase, but decided his character would say it incorrectly. Remember, it’s not grammatically incorrect if it’s a quote!

    Y’know, for all the information Danny’s missing, his pissiness and his pathological serial monogamy, he still manages to score two direct hits.

    Sure, Dorothy’s got chasing the story as an excuse and she can’t help it that Joe’s place is Danny’s place, but still, entering Danny’s domain that soon after an ugly breakup was a risk, and it doesn’t even seem to have occurred to her that it was.

    Then again, from the look on her face, and from Danny’s general policies to date, I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the first time he’s ever blown up at her, over anything.

      “Pathological serial monogamy” is a little harsh. Maybe the guy just has a ‘type’ and is sticking to it?

        June 6, 2011 at 1:46 pm | #

        “Pathological serial monogamy” means “refuses on principle to sleep with two women at once”. Since he was in a relationship, that means “Refuses to cheat on his girlfriend”.

        When did this start being a bad thing?

          I was thinking it meant, in this context, going after another girl when you just got out of a long relationship. Like a person who can’t be happy unless they’re dating someone.

      What’s really funny is that you think that was an ugly break up. Do they give you tea and cookies when telling you to hit the bricks? Hell, fact that there wasn’t blood, a freaking flood of tears, clothes, furniture and otherwise strewn about makes it a pretty damn tame break up.

      Why the Dorothy hate? She had reasonable cause to break up with Danny (though he probably doesn’t see it that way). She really should’ve tried to talk Joe into meeting somewhere other than his and Danny’s dorm room, though.

    Joe used Roar!

    Dorothy stayed due to her ability, “Obligation to Press”

    Danny used outrage!

    Joe was hurt in the tantrum!

    Dorothy was hurt in the tantrum! – Critical Hit! It’s Super Effective!-

    Danny calmed down and is confused.

    Danny hurt himself in his confusion!

      I have to disagree with you Ref. Looks like Joe got the super-effective critical hit. Dorothy just looks uncomfortable, but Joe looks like he’s about to cry. 😛

    I have to admit, I am in total support of Danny anger here. Both Dorothy and Joe stepped over some lines.

    I mean, even though Dorothy wasn’t there to intentionally hurt Danny, she should have considered the risk of going to Danny’s room and do the interview inside said room. They broke up 4 days ago. What if Danny had opened the door? Did she ever consider his feelings? Nope.

    And Joe… I always felt he sucked as a wingman. Don’t get me wrong, I like him (sometimes), but he rarely if ever follows the bro-code which one would think a guy like him would treat like the freakin’ bible. I mean, think about the violations he’s already guilty of:

    – Never Sleep with a Bro’s ex (Joe hasn’t done it yet, but he told Danny 5 seconds after the break-up that he wants to add Dorothy to his sex-list.)
    – Bros Before Hos. (Not long after break-up instead of helping Danny recover from his lost love, he got annoyed and forced him to play wingman, so that Joe himself could get maybe get laid.)
    – Do whatever you can to help your bro score (Danny brought a girl home. Instead of being supportive, he starts rambling on about how the girl is a clone of the ex.)

    And I’m pretty sure allowing your bro’s ex into said bro’s living quarters is some kind of violation as well.

    Sorry Joe and Dorothy, but you kids stepped in it.

      Amen to everything you said. For all Dorothy goes on about wanting to get into an Ivy League law school (or whatever), she has an astounding lack of judgment. And Joe…you would THINK the Bro Code meant something to him, but I think his real code has nothing to do with Bros and everything to do with Self-Gratification. Plus, he’s a moron.

      “Don’tcha see Amber! I’m Bropologizing! This is nothing to brewcify me over. I’m just looking to fix this brotastrophy and set the record straight. Danny is an upstanding dude, totally on the down-bro, and you shouldn’t judge a playa by his fraternity. You hear what I’m Brospressing? Have we brommunicated?”

            Doesn’t work, because you can broker something, (with the past tense being brokered) so it’s phonetically identical to an actual word. You can’t have that if you wanna properly bronvey meaning.

                  Besides, it’s not like the term was terribly meaningful to bro-gin with.

      Not necessarily… Danny might still have deep feeling for her, but is hurt and pissed to see her in his home, acting like she owns the joint and commenting snidely about his new female friend. This was probably just a good excuse to finally tell her off,

      That’s not the point here. Sure he has the chance to recover with Amber after this, but Joe and Dorothy made things harder for him in the long run.

      After Danny decided to man up and take the initiative, he get’s rewarded with Amber seeing a crazy ex (those last comics screamed unbalanced) and asshole roommate. If you started to gauge an interest in someone would you want to go back up there knowing crazy could follow?

    Really proud of Danny here. More for his comment to Dorothy than to Joe, but definitely for both.

    Seriously, she waited until after he’d already followed her up to college to put her foot down and break up with him, leaving him emotionally devastated, and then when he tries to move on and put her behind him, she has the nerve to get pissy at him for bringing a girl back to his room? And not even for sex! They were just there so he could grab his DS so they could play some games together! Sex, presumably, would come later.

    And yes, Joe is the worst wingman EVER. Because in the end, Joe doesn’t care about getting a bro laid; he just cares about getting to Joe some girl. With his penis. Possibly in the FAAAAAAAAAAAAACE. Obligatory memes aside, it may be the meanest thing anyone’s ever said to him, but that’s only because he knows it’s the truth.

    Very good, Danny. Let the hate flow through you.

        I think it doesn’t help her case that the first words she says to him between an abrupt and painful breakup and seeing him again weren’t something judgemental about him and the girl he wanted to go out with. “So four days, huh?” just oozes with disapproval, which is something Danny should not be inclined to give a crap about at this point. More than that, he tried to introduce Amber to them and they were too busy throwing negative comments his way to even acknowledge that she said hello.
