I don’t know why, but when I read this I heard it being said by the leprechaun from those old Lucky Charms commercials (no idea what their commercials are like now).
I’m honestly confused on how you can have an entire storyline about Faz. Although perhaps it will be revealed that Faz was homeless for the last couple months (has it been a couple months? Dumbing of Age time is confusing) after Blain got the shit kicked out of him.
Given how Blaine likely met her (based on how they met in the other universe, and the fact that he’s mobbed up in this universe, too), I wouldn’t be surprised if she was in jail. And his dad either dead, in the clink, or on the run.
It’s definitely not been a couple months. It’s around the middle of October and Blaine was here in the third week of September. It’s been about a month.
This storyline name has been on the Chapter List for a while – Willis always pre-names his chapters, and puts them on the Chapter list.
So, yeah, I’ve been worried for months.
Then again, maybe Willis is just taunting us. Maybe Faz doesn’t actually appear in ‘Faz Is Great’. Maybe it’s just his way of tormenting us? Wouldn’t that be great? *fragile, broken laugh*
Dammit Walky, that is a classic symptom of depression! I should know! We’re four weeks into classes and I’ve been to only four German classes! Don’t do it!
I would get a brownie tray (or whatever they’re called), line the bottom with store-bought cookie dough, put Oreos on top of that, then put the brownie mix on top of that and bake it. Absolutely delicious.
I figure that Mike has a very specific calendar for how he’s going to crush each and every person’s hopes and dreams, and the whole damn schedule will be thrown off if Walky falls into a pattern of self-destructive behavior. Mike must therefore intervene and help Walky out of these doldrums if he is to destroy him later.
Look I’m sorry but as someone who relishes in the suffering of most of you guys, let me give my reaction to the commenter’s reactions to the storyline title.
Doesn’t Walky realize if he fails out Dorothy is going to blame herself for not being there to support him.
And then when she cracks and never becomes President and the world becomes a flaming fireball, it will be all his fault?
You realize, of course, that if Faz shows up on Valentine’s Day… he’ll be coming after Dina.
After all, Dina tied him up with rope. Faz has watched several Internet videos that indicate this means she desires his body. While Faz has several other potential lovers on his stalking list, his notes indicate that Dina is the most vulnerable, and therefore the most receptive to his advances. Let the wooing commence!
…. Why do I get the feeling that even if Mike likes to be a jerk, sometimes, he uses being a jerk as a front to actually be a good guy without copping to it because he likes being seen as a jerk so people don’t expect anything else out of him?
Because Mike is messing with you on a meta level, setting you up to believe he isn’t just a jerk, so that the betrayal when he again reveals that he is will be more painful.
I’m guessing one week before Walky either ends up in the Emergency Room or some of his friends need to make an intervention. Either way, I’m expecting a bucket-load of Dorothy angst in response.
I wonder if the reaction would be like this if we saw one of the girls respond to a breakup by drowning her sorrows in ice cream. What’s the difference, really?
If they were doing exactly as Walky is, I would be just as concerned.
But it would honestly depend on who exactly it was you were referring to.
Most girls that we know have a friendly relationship with Joyce, who would likely check up on them if she knew they missed a class. Whereas I wouldn’t expect her to check on Walky for a couple of days because they don’t get along as well and honestly, I can’t think of anyone else off the top of my head who would think to check on Walky.
I wouldn’t have expected Mike to check in on Walky AT ALL even though they are roommates.
And I don’t expect Walky to really be willing to listen to people either until they actually force him to.
So like, if they had the exact same style of context as Walky, yeah, I would be just as concerned, but I don’t know any girls personally who while crying over a tub of ice cream wouldn’t contact a parent or a friend or a sibling or would let themselves wallow over it to the point of missing classes.
Like, the context matters here that Walky is the exact kind of person to let himself wallow and spiral and ignore all the consequences.
It’s the next morning! You don’t know anyone who wouldn’t screw up a night and maybe the next day over a breakup?
Sure, if he actually wallows and spirals, then it’s an issue. But it hasn’t even been 24 hours. Frankly, I knew quite a few people who would have gone out, gotten plastered and been in much worse shape the next day – but not spiraled into alcoholism. Hell, I’ve done it.
The point is that Walky’s personality means he very well COULD spiral, hard. He avoids his feelings, his responsibilities, and anything that isn’t easy. If there was a girl in the cast who acted remotely like that – which, there is, her name is Becky, though even she isn’t at Walky’s level of avoidant & irresponsible – and she responded to a breakup in this way, then yes, we’d be just as worried.
Yes, some of the commenters are overreacting. Yes, it’s only the next morning.
But that has absolutely nothing to do with his gender.
Oh geez. This hits way too close to home for me. Freshman year of college, I pretty much let myself go. The next year all my friends had dropped out due to partying and skipping class. I finally found a good crowd and got my shit together, but damn this brings back memories.
It’s difficult to imagine but Mike DOES occasionally care for people. It’s just that his way of expressing it tends towards the backhanded or even openly and counter-productively abusive (his attempt to help Amber comes to mind).
I think his problem, like lots of people, is that he imagines everyone ultimately thinks the way he does so he always expresses things in the way he’d understand to be helpful.
You’re the first commenter I’ve seen who seems to grasp that Mike isn’t the literal worst & does care/have emotions, while also not praising his “unique style of helping people.” (Read: abuse.)
Mike isn’t the literal worst – he’s not Ross or Ryan or Clint or Blaine or even Mary.
The jury is definitely still out on whether he cares about anyone or anything. There’s been very little sign of it so far.
Blaine is still hospitalised, AFAIK. I’m wondering if this is going to be about Amber trying to be a good sister and helping Faz break away from his control.
I think its been a couple of weeks at least (comic book time) since Amber/Amazigirl beat up Blaine. I suspect that whatever injuries he’s had probably would have healed enough to be discharged.
DoA!Mike seems a little less extreme than IW/SP!Mike. Of course, as far as we know he’s never killed anyone, or been a secret agent. Less grand scale asshole and more kind of a jerk, but one that’d put a minimum effort to check up on you. Maybe punch your enemies for you.
Me two weeks ago: Jeffrey Epstein killed himself, not to protect anyone, but because entering prison as the world's most illustrious pedophile makes that a logical decision. Conspiracy theories make less sense than the stated story.
Me now: The Pee Tape was shot on Epstein Island.

I need more Muslim characters! Or at least more prominent ones who aren't Raidah. It is a huge giant hole in my strip that makes it suck. The current storyline would've been way better if they existed. But they don't, and no amount of throwing Asma in for three strips solves it.

Happy International Non-Binary People's Day to all those who work, create, parent, protest, love and live without ever fitting into someone else's category.
Okay, everyone's jumping to conclusions, but Joyce was hit with a mysterious pink gas in Thursday's strip.
Now, in recent years, the police are known to increasingly use military grade weapons.
Which reminded me of this bit of proposed technology from the 1990s:

“why Mike, I didn’t know you cared”
“I don’t, just verifying”
“Sounds like you need help. With surrendering.”
*pulls out whip and bondage gear*
I approve of this plan. Then again, I approve of most things that involve bondage.
Alt: Next, on Slipshine!
But from his bed can he see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch milkshakes?
He can see that from his heart.
Mike refuses to let Walky give up. Then there will be nothing for him to ruin.
To be fair, Mike also has to live in that room, which mean he has to smell Walky right now. It is likely unpleasant.
So anyone else suspect Mike just got in this morning?
It’s probably a bad sign that I am finding Walky here very relatable.
Ah, living the high life as a bachelor, I see.
Yeah, if I saw someone eating like that, I’d assume they were living the “high” life as well.
And then there’s Miller High-Life, which means for Mike it’s Miller time?
Ahh, college.
To be honest, that milkshake sounds deliciously atrocious.
If you have Steak n Shake where you live, I recommend stopping in for one
There’s one just half an hour away, by car. I love eating there, so this is a hot tip.
Steak and Shake has the best ideas for shakes, and thus they are burdened with terrible service as a result of their (delicious) hubris.
It’s a real thing. There’s Lucky Charms milkshakes too. And probably others, my current diet does now allow for such things very often.
…I envy Walky.
No, sardine milkshakes are atrocious. Walky’s one is just life threatening.
I’d second guess a crunchy shake and ask when the milk expired.
I think you mean “atrociously delicious.”
I don’t know why, but when I read this I heard it being said by the leprechaun from those old Lucky Charms commercials (no idea what their commercials are like now).
I think you have your words the wrong way round.
Atrociously delicious = e.g. deep fried Mars bars, bacon butties, or Black Forest Gateau.
Deliciously atrocious = e.g. mixing every single liquid you have in your house right now in a blender, and then drinking it.
I don’t get how Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (or even Schwarzwaldtorte) compares with fat food rendered fatter combos…
it concerns me that the storyline is called “faz is great”. anyone else?
Very much so, as a matter of graph.
The graphing hands
graph all they can
Faz for himself
after all
(It is the greatness of Faz)
Everyone has respect for Faz
i didn’t even notice till you pointed it out. i’m scared.
I’m pretending it doesn’t exist for as long as possible
Look upon Willis’ works, ye mighty and dispair.
The fact that Willis is pointing it out on twitter, while giggling meniacally, I’m sure, doesn’t help.
Surely Faz is great enough that it should be proclaimed without him having to, you know, show up.
I’m honestly confused on how you can have an entire storyline about Faz. Although perhaps it will be revealed that Faz was homeless for the last couple months (has it been a couple months? Dumbing of Age time is confusing) after Blain got the shit kicked out of him.
Presumably, he’d still be able to live with his mother if that was the case.
Given how Blaine likely met her (based on how they met in the other universe, and the fact that he’s mobbed up in this universe, too), I wouldn’t be surprised if she was in jail. And his dad either dead, in the clink, or on the run.
It’s definitely not been a couple months. It’s around the middle of October and Blaine was here in the third week of September. It’s been about a month.
Faz could have been in delivery all that time.
I find it concerning because the last time we saw Faz was because Blaine was around.
According to the timeline, it’s been a little over three weeks since Amber laid the beatdown on not-so-dear-old dad.
Not all that concerned with Faz, but if he’s back then Blaine can’t be all that far behind.
I’m definitely concerned, since in the first time we saw Faz in this comic he was brought to the college by Amber’s dad.
I was only worried about Faz. And then the other commenters mentioned Blaine so now I’m triply worried.
This storyline name has been on the Chapter List for a while – Willis always pre-names his chapters, and puts them on the Chapter list.
So, yeah, I’ve been worried for months.
Then again, maybe Willis is just taunting us. Maybe Faz doesn’t actually appear in ‘Faz Is Great’. Maybe it’s just his way of tormenting us? Wouldn’t that be great? *fragile, broken laugh*
Mike presumably won’t exist for the next few hours.
Berkeleyan Idealism?
This is not going to go over well when midterms are over…
Oh no. Dorothy’s gonna blame herself D:
If Mike is giving you basic good advice, you know things are bad.
Mike just doesn’t want to put up with the smell.
Can’t blame him

FAZ INCOMING
Dammit Walky, that is a classic symptom of depression! I should know! We’re four weeks into classes and I’ve been to only four German classes! Don’t do it!
ah to be able to eat like an 18-year-old again
Remember eating cookie dough at 2 in the morning? Yeah, me too.
Sometimes I would buy a roll of it with no intention of baking it, and just eat it like a candy bar
I would get a brownie tray (or whatever they’re called), line the bottom with store-bought cookie dough, put Oreos on top of that, then put the brownie mix on top of that and bake it. Absolutely delicious.
Dorothy is gonna be pissed is Walky ends up becoming president due to a sugar rushed infused blackout.
HA HA HA oh shit that’s actually funny. Rbin might be too though that’s HER gig
Robin*
Also, WHERE did you get your avatar? ???
probably Slipshine
my thoughts exactly, I just wasn’t sure I missed a strip or something
Slipshine, indeed. It was basically about Billie “helping” Ruth take a shower.
IF Walky…
When MIKE is the voice or reason, Walky. MIKE.
MIIIIIKE.
Do I have to say it again?
When he’s doing it and doesn’t have a clear motive to cause pain and misery, then it’s really worrying.
indeed
I figure that Mike has a very specific calendar for how he’s going to crush each and every person’s hopes and dreams, and the whole damn schedule will be thrown off if Walky falls into a pattern of self-destructive behavior. Mike must therefore intervene and help Walky out of these doldrums if he is to destroy him later.
If he keeps that up he’ll go from Walky to Waddley…
And then from Waddley to Rolly.
I take it Walky also doesn’t believe in pants?
Otherwise he should be using this break as an opportunity to wear those pajama jeans again.
I am guessing that this is probably one of the most autobiographical strips Willis has ever done.
So just replace Mike with Maggie and classes with Dumbing of Age?
And toddlers.
Problem Solved!
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B_AzEeIGznU
Mike: “Oh fuck he’s gonna make the room reek even worse now.”
Me: “I hope Mike suffers.”
If Mike suffers, he’ll make sure to spread it around.
Well, that was quick.
Now this storyline name I very much don’t agree with
Look I’m sorry but as someone who relishes in the suffering of most of you guys, let me give my reaction to the commenter’s reactions to the storyline title.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
You may continue.
It looks more like your trying to eat your pain away Walky.
Post break-up eating – it’s what most humans do.
here is kitty’s finnish word of the day!
siitin (penis)
hahahaha
have a nice day!
https://youtu.be/djpnsqdNabM
siitin on my own, not by myself.
Perkele…
(the only Finnish word I knew before I read your comments!)
Alright Willis, you don’t scare me! You wanna do a fax storyline? WELL BRING IT ON! I’d actually like to see how this plays out
Walky’s regressing back to before his brain recognized object permanence.
This is quite terrifying. Not only was Doty his impulse control but she seems to have been also most of his higher brain functions…
Or you know, depression as a result of a breakup – disguised as “I’m free!”
Not that uncommon, really.
Partly why this “pause”, rather than letting them catch up and sort themselves out is likely to leave both of them in worse shape.
Might be it’s just… Walky is so hard to take seriously.
how did you find these pictures of me?
Quick! Put masking tape over your webcamera!
Doesn’t Walky realize if he fails out Dorothy is going to blame herself for not being there to support him.
And then when she cracks and never becomes President and the world becomes a flaming fireball, it will be all his fault?
Should I be concerned that Mike seems to be giving a sh*t about Walky here?
More like Mike doesn’t want his room to smell like cheetos and McNuggets all year round.
And now the bed is full of pointy Nachito fragments. That’s why you don’t eat chips in bed, Walky!
“That’s how you get ants” -Archer
*sees name of storyline*
*sees Valentine’s Day approaching*
Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope.
You realize, of course, that if Faz shows up on Valentine’s Day… he’ll be coming after Dina.
After all, Dina tied him up with rope. Faz has watched several Internet videos that indicate this means she desires his body. While Faz has several other potential lovers on his stalking list, his notes indicate that Dina is the most vulnerable, and therefore the most receptive to his advances. Let the wooing commence!
Eh, bring it on.
Dina can handle him. He tries anything there, he’ll wind up mailed to the Amazon. And that’s if Becky doesn’t get involved.
…. Why do I get the feeling that even if Mike likes to be a jerk, sometimes, he uses being a jerk as a front to actually be a good guy without copping to it because he likes being seen as a jerk so people don’t expect anything else out of him?
Because Mike is messing with you on a meta level, setting you up to believe he isn’t just a jerk, so that the betrayal when he again reveals that he is will be more painful.
This.
I’m guessing one week before Walky either ends up in the Emergency Room or some of his friends need to make an intervention. Either way, I’m expecting a bucket-load of Dorothy angst in response.
I wonder if the reaction would be like this if we saw one of the girls respond to a breakup by drowning her sorrows in ice cream. What’s the difference, really?
How much ice cream? Walky looks to have enough junk food for a small Super Bowl party on his bed. And that’s on top of the McNuggets.
If the’d eaten enough to be so clearly nauseous as Walky is in panel 1? Yes, I’d have been just as concerned.
If they were doing exactly as Walky is, I would be just as concerned.
But it would honestly depend on who exactly it was you were referring to.
Most girls that we know have a friendly relationship with Joyce, who would likely check up on them if she knew they missed a class. Whereas I wouldn’t expect her to check on Walky for a couple of days because they don’t get along as well and honestly, I can’t think of anyone else off the top of my head who would think to check on Walky.
I wouldn’t have expected Mike to check in on Walky AT ALL even though they are roommates.

Yes, some of the commenters are overreacting. Yes, it’s only the next morning.
But that has absolutely nothing to do with his gender.
Walky no don’t do this to yourself.
I know you’re in mourning/relieved at your imagined freedom but THIS WILL BITE YOU IN THE ASS SO HARD IT’LL SCAR YOU IN YOUR TWENTIES.
Walky may be a slob but he is going to be very NEET if he’s not careful.
cute
*Sees the new storyline title
Oh for f… sake…noooooooooo!!!
Search your feelings. You know it to be true.
I don’t understand the new storyline title
It merely states the truth.
Or what Faz think is the truth, anyway
Faz is great, if Faz thinks something is true, it logically follows that it must be true or else Faz wouldn’t think it were true. Logic!
Damn this is basically a kid version of becoming a hopeless homeless alcoholic O_o
After a college breakup, I did the adult version of that minus the homeless part. I may have done that before the breakup too though.
Well that went down fast.
Oh god I’m not danny i’m WALKY.
Quit while you’re ahead, Walky. That metabolism of yours is going to give way eventually.
Got a strong drive to just throw the entire Walky and his sheets in a washing machine
sounds like a good idea
I can agree to that. Should throw myself in too
I was a philosophy major at IU… I’ll just show myself out.
Oh geez. This hits way too close to home for me. Freshman year of college, I pretty much let myself go. The next year all my friends had dropped out due to partying and skipping class. I finally found a good crowd and got my shit together, but damn this brings back memories.
This is actually really nice of Mike. Maybe the makeouts left him in a good mood.
Maybe he’s…. love drunk?
thank you thank you I’ll see myself out
Is Mike…concerned?
Is Ethan rubbing off on him?!
(Literally and figuratively.)
I suppose Ethan managed to get a rise out of Mike…
It’s difficult to imagine but Mike DOES occasionally care for people. It’s just that his way of expressing it tends towards the backhanded or even openly and counter-productively abusive (his attempt to help Amber comes to mind).
I think his problem, like lots of people, is that he imagines everyone ultimately thinks the way he does so he always expresses things in the way he’d understand to be helpful.
You’re the first commenter I’ve seen who seems to grasp that Mike isn’t the literal worst & does care/have emotions, while also not praising his “unique style of helping people.” (Read: abuse.)
Mike isn’t the literal worst – he’s not Ross or Ryan or Clint or Blaine or even Mary.
The jury is definitely still out on whether he cares about anyone or anything. There’s been very little sign of it so far.
Nah.
This is just the best way to get at Walkie in his current sugar zombie state.
I missed the storyline title the first time around, but guys it gets worse. Last time we got Faz we also got BLAINE.
Blaine is still hospitalised, AFAIK. I’m wondering if this is going to be about Amber trying to be a good sister and helping Faz break away from his control.
I think its been a couple of weeks at least (comic book time) since Amber/Amazigirl beat up Blaine. I suspect that whatever injuries he’s had probably would have healed enough to be discharged.
I think, therefore I am

I’ve known people like Walky when I was at IU. They just kind of float and coast and sometimes got themselves into academic trouble.
DoA!Mike seems a little less extreme than IW/SP!Mike. Of course, as far as we know he’s never killed anyone, or been a secret agent. Less grand scale asshole and more kind of a jerk, but one that’d put a minimum effort to check up on you. Maybe punch your enemies for you.
Or he’s just an asshole, without even the redeeming feature of helping to save the world.
But people keep trying to read good into him.
Goddammit.
Walky is me…
Showing your age, Willis. They haven’t been called Nacho Cheesier in years.

I, too, want to be Diogenes when I grow up
