    To be fair, her mind isn’t the only one berating her for having silly conversations, although in my case its not about poverty so much as the fact that focusing on her talking about cartoons takes time away from Billie and Ruth who are no doubt even now getting drunk and moving ever closer to the most epic hatesex make-out ever seen this side of Amber and Mike in another timeline.

    And yes, I am also a jerk.

    Awwww so cuuuuuuute!

    Also Walky’s comment about Dorothy’s mind hits pretty close to home. Ouch depression.

      Me, I’d ditch the current subject, shift that second person pronoun’s case from possesive to nominative, and tighten up that linking verb just a tad. Then it’d be a bulls-eye.

    The look on Dorothy’s face… man, can everyone tell? (Except Joyce… hell, even Walky has kind of a “uh, Joyce, hate to break it to ya…” look on his face.)

      Of course it could be less of a “Joyce, he’s gay” look, and more of a “Joyce, pulling his arm around you does not make you two a couple” look.

        He came out in high school, but I think he’s trying to go back in the closet from what’s been going on since “Lincoln.”

        Mike and Amber know him from high school, so they know, and Sarah could tell by looking at him. I don’t think Either Dorothy or Walky would know though.

    Okay Ethan really needs to set things straight with JOyce. (no pun intended)
    As for Joyce, getting too ahead of herself as usual.

      Yeah, I think we’re past the point where Ethan’s doing something wrong here; I can’t imagine any way he could still be rationalizing away their interaction as anything other than stringing her along.

      I mean, geeze, he doesn’t even need to come out of the closet to her if he’s uncomfortable doing so! He can let her down gently without bringing up his sexuality at all.

    I suppose it’s just me that has Joyce shifting Ethan’s arm to ‘show’ Walky than for any other reason.

      Yeah, my reaction was “Is she trying to one-up Walky?” Joyce and Walky have been butting heads a lot so far in DoA and I like it.

    I’m feel sad that Joyce will eventually be let down but I take some comfort in knowing it may be a few days DoA time, so we won’t have to see it for at least 6 to 8 months.

    This is so cute, and nice pun Willis, I approve. Also, Walky’s pose looks really uncomfortable, or his upper arm is really long.

      Well it doesnt look bad at all in the close up, its just the way Walky and Dorothy are positioned, Walk’s fa~ace would be nestled behind Dotty in the rest of the strip.

      Willis exchanged proper anatomy for proper comedy.
