My God. It’s spreading! It’s apparently targeting all webcomic creators and their characters! Soon they will only be able to draw butts and make butt-related jokes! David Willis is only the most recent of a series of victims. Who will be the next poor victim of this malicious disease?
Holy crap, they DID end this strip by all looking to one side.
I mean, I know not all QC strip does that, but many of them do, and when I finally noticed it, it creeped me out for some reason. It’s like the characters know something horrible that’s about to happen to you, but they’re not going to tell you, no, they want to see you suffer…
… Wait, that might just be schizophrenia…
Honestly, that’s pretty spot on. It’s really hard not to be amused by someone with a phobia of something really innocuous or harmless, no matter how crippling it is for them, E.g, Hair that’s parted to the left.
I honestly wonder just how many people don’t understand the joke.I mean, there has to be SOME people who don’t read both this comic AND QC…..that’d be a hassle.
The joke is “butts disease” sounds funny. It’s the reason why I used it. That I also used it in a QC guest strip didn’t feature prominently in my mind.
If other people who are not me agree that “butts disease” sounds funny, then they “understand the joke.”
I really like this. Sarah, secretly adoring his care free spirit, appears to merely tolerate his zany expressions of love that prove not everyone will hates her for snitching on a roommate that threated her life’s goals. Walky can’t believe someone so serious would stick by him as he tries to extend is childhood into perpetuity.
And they both lack a filter between brain and mouth, which could combine to produce heckling that would make Statler and Waldorf proud.
you made it less conspicuous so Dorothy would stop stairing at it right? It was keeping her off task? Darn actors have the attention span of webcomic artists!
I’m kinda disappointed anybody pointed out the whole “what’s the problem is” thing. People accidentally slip up their grammar all the time in real life, and seeing that occasionally in a webcomic might make it more relatable. You know, as long as it isn’t entirely littered with spelling and grammar mistakes. And if anybody were to make a grammar slip up (accidentally or otherwise), I think Walky is a prime contender. You know, ’cause of him bein’ a doorwaytroll an’ all.
I wonder what Walky’s response to what happened to Joyce’ll be. I mean, I know that he probably won’t make fun of her for what happened (even he isn’t that stupid or cruel), but the situation does seem to be a bit more adult than he’s used to thus far.
Going from his PJeans Quest to a semi-friend’s account of assault and near daterape’ll cause some kind of mental whiplash.
Starting the week with a case of butts disease… what else can I ask from the universe? Aaaaaaaah…! (Falls back in slo-mo into giant Millenium Falcon-shaped bed while dozens of butt-shaped pillows shower from an implied albeit invisible ceiling area)
Okay, yes, Butts Disease is funny. But I’m more curious about Dorothy’s look in panel 3. She’s not looking anyone in the eye – why is that? Does she really not consider him a friend, and she’s just being nice, or is this just the guilt about last night?
DAMN IT WILLIS YOU WILL NOT DISTRACT ME WITH BUTTS
She dumped Daniel because she thought was too loopy for her new serious college life. And now she’s got Walky hanging around. From her perspective, she is not trading up.
I think more along the lines of she’s starting do develop a major crush on Walky, and is upset because she can only admit to him being a friend (I also think some funky things happend after the Monkey Master porn, but that’s beside the point). I also like to think that Walky is going to school to become a doctor in this universe, but maybe I’m reading too much into it, and crediting David Willis on more foreshadowing than he’s capable of…. Either way, good job Willis.
Oh goodness. I just caught up with QC wherein Dave gave Jeph the Butts Disease, and now I come over here only to find more Butts Disease? What ARE these worlds coming to? I want a world free of Butts Disease. If you’re like me and wish to join in this noble journey, send an email to nomorebutts@butts.crack and donate time, money, or butts jokes to those in need…..
I mean, not butts jokes. Dang I can’t keep the world free of Butts Disease after all.

Hey, Butts Disease is a very serious and sad issue in today’s society.
If left untreated, it can lead to Ass Burgers.
Which is responsible for at least 50% of all butt-related deaths.
and a large amount of jokes in webcomics
you don’t understand, Butts Disease can also lead to laughing your ass off, you don’t want to know how that physically feels.
My friend had butts disease…*exhales*
…she …her…she used to have a big ‘ ole butt, and now…
Sorry this is just so hard to talk about…
well honestly i was going to say a buttload of jokes, but i figured that was to obvious
First 2 comments win the entire thing!
Dammit Cartman!
He’s got a point.
I love how it seems that he has something in common with Sarah.
Oh Cheese… I hope nothing stupid happens until one of them leaves the room. Walky and Sarah could make a snarkularity!
Most people have stuff in common with most people. We just usually emphasize differences.
This will teach you to read QC.
What has Jaques done to the world?
Created a new epidemic apparently.
Jeph says that David’s the one with Butt’s Disease
Willis does ALL the webcomics!
Are you saying that Willis is the webcomic’s answer to Typhoid Mary?
OH MY!
David Willis…
PATIENT ZERO
ALL of them. 88888888~D
He gets around. Oh no. He’s the carrier, HE’S THE CARRIER!
My God. It’s spreading! It’s apparently targeting all webcomic creators and their characters! Soon they will only be able to draw butts and make butt-related jokes! David Willis is only the most recent of a series of victims. Who will be the next poor victim of this malicious disease?
I think we’ve all just outlined the premise for a “Contagion” sequel.
Holy crap, they DID end this strip by all looking to one side.
I mean, I know not all QC strip does that, but many of them do, and when I finally noticed it, it creeped me out for some reason. It’s like the characters know something horrible that’s about to happen to you, but they’re not going to tell you, no, they want to see you suffer…
… Wait, that might just be schizophrenia…
So it’s a real thing in the DoA universe?
It’s like Tourette syndrome but only afflicting webcomic artists, Butts Disease was named after the surname of the first known sufferer, Seymour.
THE MORE YOU KNOW…
What about babygotbackitis?
induced by Babygotbacteria
caused by a mutation in the PJ genes.
Pajama Genes!
Slowly back away from the pants, Walky! Bad things may transpire!
Are you kidding? The pants are a vaccine!that’s the real reason he needs the pants! Walky’s trying to save the world!
…within the cellular DNA (Damn Nice Ass)
+1 for awesome acronym.
Should be more concerned with GNA (Got No @$$).
Which is read through RNA (Really Nice Ass)
A dangerous disease. Leads to slapping, grabbing, goosing, shaking, and reverse cowgirl.
I know a cure for Butts Disease. But Walky can’t order it because he’s a boy.
Aargh no, not Butts Disease! IT’S SPREADING…
(ironically, I am now studying for an exam on infectious disease. Just thought I’d let everyone know.)
Be wary of what comes out of spreading Butts.
Linlin says: THANK YOU FOR SPREADING ASS 8D
Just makes it easier doesn’t it?
*snerk*
Now we know why there is no cure for this disease. With all the fine research scientists is this world too few are willing to look into Butts.
Honestly, that’s pretty spot on. It’s really hard not to be amused by someone with a phobia of something really innocuous or harmless, no matter how crippling it is for them, E.g, Hair that’s parted to the left.
But didn’t Willis start it with a guest strip to Jacques?
This was supposed to be a Reply to Alex. -_-
Actually it was started in a Twitter exchange between the two even before that!
The more you know….
had to do it…
Walky’s a troll?
U mad, Sarah? *coolface*
I think you mean *coolFAAACE!!!*
Must be. Didn’t you see his exchange with Sal? Troll. Face.
No no no…he has no colored hair. And he doesn’t get on message boards and comment sections and say “first!”
Anyone who claims that they can treat Butts Disease with cake is lying!
Anyone who claims that they can treat Butts Disease with their penis is lying! and probably needs to take a blood test.
and the cure will cost WAY more than a nickel.
Thanks for spelling “nickel” correctly. I see “nickle” a lot and my Spelling Socialist senses tingle so furiously…
The only time I have seen nickel spelt as ‘Nickle’ is as someone’s last name.
Any ways, your prolly not gonna wanna see da next comix wheir mikes gonna pop in and make da nykle joke
…You’re trying to give him an aneurysm, aren’t you?
the paaaainnnnn
If I recall, the only way to treat Butts Disease is a swift kick in the butt.
Ankle deep! Then twist 3x, push once, and twist twice!
So that’s: kick, push, twist, twist-twist, push-twist, twist, and you’re done.
Then do a barrel roll!
With enough cake, you can no longer tell where the butt begins and ends.
Food for thought.
Sponge cake for a spongy butt.
Dorothy is becoming the new Joyce for DOA. I’ve grown to like her and frame 2 made me love her!
Weird thought… Nathan and/or Meredith appearing (eventually) in this continuity. And/or a second real-life superhero/villain/whatever.
I honestly wonder just how many people don’t understand the joke.I mean, there has to be SOME people who don’t read both this comic AND QC…..that’d be a hassle.
The joke is “butts disease” sounds funny. It’s the reason why I used it. That I also used it in a QC guest strip didn’t feature prominently in my mind.
If other people who are not me agree that “butts disease” sounds funny, then they “understand the joke.”
Now what the hell am I supposed to do with this 243-page thesis?
Put out online for college kids and label it “biology term paper”
So I do get the joke then. I’m so proud of myself now.
D’awwww, Dotty makes this reply so much cuter.
And then there are the 1,001 twitter references …
Guilty. What are we all laughing about?
I don’t read QC, but Walky’s jump to ‘Butt Disease’ didn’t strike me as odd or out of character for him.
Butts Disease is universally funny.
Comedy gold?
At first, understanding this in-joke made me feel happy—like I was an insider. Then it made me feel sad, very sad—sad that I have no life at all.
Life? What is this life thing you are talking about?
You mean … what is this thing called life?
I couldn’t say it that way, otherwise the RIAA would be all over my ass with lawsuits for copyright infringement.
“what’s the problem is”
Thank you! Pretty disappointed I had to scroll down this far to see someone point it out.
Dear Walky:
The problem is follows the word ‘problem’ in your sentence. Without it, the structure of his sentence allows for the desired meaning.
Now that Walky knows what’s the problem is, he should be able to ask what the problem is with greater success.
*your, not his. I’m meant to be addressing Walky, not other commenters.
WHAT’S IS that guys even his PROBLEM
its like heg got BROAD SIDE SCHOOL FED up the BONE BULGE
…….
what.
……
I’m going to start shipping Walky/Sarah. Right. Nooooww….
I really like this. Sarah, secretly adoring his care free spirit, appears to merely tolerate his zany expressions of love that prove not everyone will hates her for snitching on a roommate that threated her life’s goals. Walky can’t believe someone so serious would stick by him as he tries to extend is childhood into perpetuity.
And they both lack a filter between brain and mouth, which could combine to produce heckling that would make Statler and Waldorf proud.
Doorway troll, lol.
Gonna have to use that as troll bait at some boards I frequent.
Is it any relation to a gateway troll?
The door is the gateway to the outside world and thus the mysteries of the universe.
Walky has no idea of the power he now possesses…
I hate to be the grammar police, but “… what’s the problem is.”
“what is the problem is”
*shiver*
what he meant to say was: “WUT-DA-PROLEM-ID?”
Dorothy looks kind of depressed that she’s got to own up to Walky being her friend.
… I keep forgetting that I’ve got Walky for my avatar here. Sometimes that makes the comments funnier, but this one it makes kind of weird.
Walky can refer to himself in the third person if he wants!
To exemplify the wisdom and objectivity, that Walky Armstrong is.
Walky Armstrong is not bound by societal norms
First panel Walky has the perfect hapless idiot grin. I’ve no doubt worn it many times myself.
Ok, that was reasonably funny.
I just hurt myself laughing. Thanks, Willis. Ya jerk!
Oh Butts Disease… You’re only 50 more uses away from people stating that they have you.
You know… OFF the internet that is…
I butts can’t turn in my butts paper today butts because my butts Butts Disease butts is flaring up butts. Sorry, Professor butts.
so all you’d need now is someone to sing butts to the tune of the meow mix song.
Butts butts butts butts,
Butts butts butts butts,
Butts butts Butts BUtts,
BUTTS BUtts butts butts…
Woo! Butts!
With an avatar like that, there is only one response.
Woo! Boobs!
Woo! Sweater puppies.
you just inspired the comic you will see if you click my name
*WONDERS IF JOYCE’S SWEATER PUPS ARE AS BIG AS THAT DOGS HEAD*
Woo! Chesticles!
Bodacious breastesses!
Well, at least he’s honest.
Also, love his idiotic grin in the first panel.
Oh wow I completely missed that hilariously doofy grin. lol
Third panel makes it look like Dorothy’s fixated on that red dot.
…Why is it there?
It’s a sticker on their closet corkboard. I’ve lightened it now to make it les conspicuous.
you made it less conspicuous so Dorothy would stop stairing at it right? It was keeping her off task? Darn actors have the attention span of webcomic artists!
she’s supposed to be staring at it. they’re going to add a cg creature in post.
I’m kinda disappointed anybody pointed out the whole “what’s the problem is” thing. People accidentally slip up their grammar all the time in real life, and seeing that occasionally in a webcomic might make it more relatable.

You know, ’cause of him bein’ a doorwaytroll an’ all.
Will you be okay? Can we get you anything?
I’m not entirely sure. Whatever it is, it’s Willis’ fault.
The “butts disease” tag returns only one comic.
This is a travesty.
Check some of questionable contents guest strips
I wonder what Walky’s response to what happened to Joyce’ll be. I mean, I know that he probably won’t make fun of her for what happened (even he isn’t that stupid or cruel), but the situation does seem to be a bit more adult than he’s used to thus far.
Going from his PJeans Quest to a semi-friend’s account of assault and near daterape’ll cause some kind of mental whiplash.
i’m sure that when he finds out what happened, he’ll make a nice segue into pajama jeans.
Starting the week with a case of butts disease… what else can I ask from the universe? Aaaaaaaah…!

DAMN IT WILLIS YOU WILL NOT DISTRACT ME WITH BUTTS
What if it’s a goatse butt? I think that would distract anyone … wait … I think think the word I’m looking for is disturb …
She dumped Daniel because she thought was too loopy for her new serious college life. And now she’s got Walky hanging around. From her perspective, she is not trading up.

Walky….Just….Don’t talk. Ever.
Your avatar goes so well with that statement. ^_^
I just had to make a new Gravatar from panel 5. I just love the expression on Joyce’s face. ^_^
This place is filled with mean ladies!
Funny thing is, IRL, I look more like Kelsey’s av. My glasses are even oval-shaped. ^_^
At work, I usually have the same expression, as well.
And a nice Gravatar it is, indeed.
As along time sufferer of Butt-Hertz syndrome, I find Walky’s comment very insensitive.
Oh goodness. I just caught up with QC wherein Dave gave Jeph the Butts Disease, and now I come over here only to find more Butts Disease? What ARE these worlds coming to? I want a world free of Butts Disease. If you’re like me and wish to join in this noble journey, send an email to nomorebutts@butts.crack and donate time, money, or butts jokes to those in need…..
I mean, not butts jokes. Dang I can’t keep the world free of Butts Disease after all.
I just got pajama jeans spam.
Why would Joyce assume he was going to make fun of her?
I dunno, you tell me.
A lack of trust?
Man, this site sure does camouflage its links too well, don’t it.
There is currently an ad for butt-enhancing jeans (def. not PJ jeans) on the page as I write this. Bots disease?
I see you’ve been working with Jeph a bit lately >_>
*facepalm*
Don’t hate bra, butts disease is serious business.
I hear butt’s disease is extremely rare and deadly :0
