“I *LOVE* talking about our relationship! (Almost as much as I love you!) What should we talk about first? How about the fact that we’ll be together forever?”
I always take people to ledges before I break up with them, too. It seems like a good idea somehow. Not like there’s any chance they’ll do something stupid when they are sad. Nope. Totally a good idea.
I once took a guy to a ledge to… i guess you could call it a “break- up” (he was a stalker who seemed to think I was gay for him). At first I was trying to let him down easy, then just said “look, I’m not gay, dude”. Then I pushed him off the ledge and booked it.
I feel so sorry for him! He’s like a puppy! You want to scold him for wetting the carpet, but he’s just looking at you with those puppy-dog eyes without a care in the world and to crush that would kill you inside..
No. Canada is just clothing optional… But most people partake in that option… Because when the windchill his -20 C in December you really wanna be wearing more than your birthday suit… And I live in a warm part of Canada…
And then, come summer… It gets up into the 30’s C (About 90ish degrees F) And your wearing clothes because no one wants a sunburn on their… Extremities…
All in all… Not a lot of naked people in Canada.
You forgot to mention that in the odd times that it is not life threateningly cold or skin burningly hot to not wear clothes, the blackflies and mosquitoes would eat you alive, resulting in head to toe coverage most of the time.
And the reason we have no souls? They freeze off in the winter.
I don’t actually understand why she is breaking up with him. She loves him but didn’t expect him to follow her to uni? Whats the problem? I’d be delighted! Relationships are much easier when they aren’t long distance! And if its because she wants to focus on work why not just explain this and see him less often? First day of uni theres no work to do anyway. Heck first year of uni isn’t really a challenge.
I have been in Danny’s position. Only it was at FSU not UNI. Although that wall and building behind it looks really familiar..,anyway Its not fun. She has come to the conclusion that there is no way that there relationship could go the distance so she want’s to end it now. She thought that going to college would give her a convenient excuse but did not count on him following her. The long and the short is that she is between biting the bullet and telling him the truth, or fell like she is stringing him along until she finally goes someplace he cannot follow.
She probably wanted to break up with him long before this but figured that they’d be going to different colleges & as such she could slowly break up with him over a longer period of time & distance. Then she could have the fake security of a long distance boyfriend while she played the field in her new college digs. I doubt that it really had anything to do with scholastics, although she’ll probably try to use that as an excuse.
Unfortunately Danny followed her, forcing her to actually have to either poop or get off the pot.
For what its worth, being in a long-distance relationship myself, I can sort of understand the paradox of not wanting to live at Uni with your beau. Its fun seeing them once in a while, but if you spend prolonged amounts of time with them it can start to fray, and you start to miss all the cool stuff you could be doing if you were alone, even if thats a totally selfish thing to think. Its just Human Nature to want what we don’t have, and to lust after other people/things.
Ahhh, sheer moronic optimism. It’s funny, but not as funny as seeing it get crushed heartlessly.
Although, even if she does break up with him, it’s probably that she’ll give such a pansy excuse that he’ll spend the next year or two trying to persuade her to get back with him.
Didn’t see that comment the first time ’round.
Ahem.
I’ll have you know that some of my best friends are full of shit! How dare you compare them to Danny! Face.
I’m guessing that she’ll break up with him so she can play the field & see what else is out there, but will eventually miss the security & familiarity of the old relationship & will eventually try to get back together with him.
It makes for great story & drama because it happens so often in real life.
“You’re breaking up with me? Why?” “Your faaaaaaace!”
…okay, now that I’ve got that out of my system, I’m certainly wondering whether Dorothy’s going to go through with it or not. Either way’ll provide a ton of drama, though.
You’d think he could tell by looking at her body language and facial expression that “sweet” was not the impression he should be getting about the coming talk.
At least, if you thought he was a sentient human being that has been around people all his life.
The poor guy. I mean, who says ‘sweet’ when a girl wants to talk about your relationship? He should be running for the hills, but he’s trying to be an ideal boyfriend…
Okay, so I never got around to reading Roomies. Has Danny always been this… Clingy and… um… naive (i.e. dumb) regarding the obvious unhappiness of his girlfriends? Or is this personality more of an alternate universe version from the original story?
I mean, I’d have thought an insanely attentive boyfriend like this guy could catch the obvious “I’m not happy” red-flags she’s sending up.
Ever read It’s Walky!?
Because he thought Sal was the ideal, perfect girlfriend. Not some insane broad at all.
Even when he was dating Billie for years, and she was jumping through prison walls, legally documented insane, he thought she was perfect for him because he clinged to what was once so comfortable.
She’ll break it up but then he’s gonna wine about it and she is going to pitty him and stay with him and then rethink it and think about what OTHERS!! will think of her ( that what all of us do directly or indirectly ) and then dump his sorry behind.
I take that back. I’d have gotten a sinking feeling by now. Probably WOULD have gotten it when she wanted to speak alone. That is always ALWAYS a bad sign.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOooouuuul cruuuuuuuuush!
Wow. He really can’t see this turning bad at all, can he? O.o
I felt obligated. It just looked so… empty.
“I *LOVE* talking about our relationship! (Almost as much as I love you!) What should we talk about first? How about the fact that we’ll be together forever?”
… Maybe she’ll wuss out and not bother so they can continue being happy, or at least he will.
Maybe he knows what’s coming and he’s trying to guilt her into not saying it.
I’d bet dollars to donuts this is what happens.
I will take this bet. Not because I disagree, but because I wouldn’t mind winning some donuts.
Someone else lost a bet.
Someone lost a bet.
They’re gonna do it now, right?
Hey, this ledge sure looks familiar.
I love that ledge. It’s a beautiful place to relax.
I always take people to ledges before I break up with them, too. It seems like a good idea somehow. Not like there’s any chance they’ll do something stupid when they are sad. Nope. Totally a good idea.

I feel so sorry for him! He’s like a puppy! You want to scold him for wetting the carpet, but he’s just looking at you with those puppy-dog eyes without a care in the world and to crush that would kill you inside..
What? Why are you looking at me like that?
When dogs wet on my carpet, I rub their noses in it and throw them outside… Then again, Canadian’s don’t have souls…
This is true.
If that form of dog training means you’re soulless- Then obviously I’m Canadian.
Damn! I guess I’ll just have to go partake in some awesome healthcare then…
Is the lack of souls why you guys don’t wear clothes?
No. Canada is just clothing optional… But most people partake in that option… Because when the windchill his -20 C in December you really wanna be wearing more than your birthday suit… And I live in a warm part of Canada…
And then, come summer… It gets up into the 30’s C (About 90ish degrees F) And your wearing clothes because no one wants a sunburn on their… Extremities…

Seanan McGuire totally lied to me!

And the reason we have no souls? They freeze off in the winter.
Oh the black flies. My favourite. They can bite through three layers of clothing, I swear.
Am I the only one who thinks this all looks very familiar?
As much as I’ve grown tired of everybody pointing out avatar-irony, I have to admit that yours is too good to resist making a crack.
And yes, it probably is just you.
Well I recall Willis posting the last panel’s art somewhere on one of these blogs so no, you’re not the only one.
Huh? Huh? Familiar what?
Also, the colouring is wonderful in this strip.

She doesn’t seem like the sort to disturb things just so she could shit comfortably.
Well, she does, but I’m not the sort to pass up a chance to make a Clerks reference…

Shut him down, Dorothy. And don’t be nice about it, he needs a good, hard reality check.
This is gonna be fun. Danny’s totally got it coming. maybe he’ll be the grim, depressed “old Ruth” of this universe.
i.. cant..
talking crotch.
He’s even looking at it.
Ahhh, sheer moronic optimism. It’s funny, but not as funny as seeing it get crushed heartlessly.
Although, even if she does break up with him, it’s probably that she’ll give such a pansy excuse that he’ll spend the next year or two trying to persuade her to get back with him.
Maybe Dorothy should’ve chosen a higher ledge.
ITS A TRAP!
I’m sorry, I appear to have miscalcuted:
This is the moment where Danny’s soul snaps like a Twix bar.
She may be evil, but at least she’s n–
Never mind. Not as funny the second time.
Didn’t see that comment the first time ’round.
Ahem.

…okay, now that I’ve got that out of my system, I’m certainly wondering whether Dorothy’s going to go through with it or not. Either way’ll provide a ton of drama, though.
…now, let’s see who I am today.
Leslie, yay. Still hoping to get Ruth.
faaaaaaace
You’d think he could tell by looking at her body language and facial expression that “sweet” was not the impression he should be getting about the coming talk.
At least, if you thought he was a sentient human being that has been around people all his life.
AAAAH! DANNY’S AN ALIEN!
Soooo Dorothy dumps him, but then it turns out that he signed up for all the classes she signed up for…
well that much is obvious
The poor guy. I mean, who says ‘sweet’ when a girl wants to talk about your relationship? He should be running for the hills, but he’s trying to be an ideal boyfriend…
Trying too hard, from her view, I guess.
Okay, so I never got around to reading Roomies. Has Danny always been this… Clingy and… um… naive (i.e. dumb) regarding the obvious unhappiness of his girlfriends? Or is this personality more of an alternate universe version from the original story?
I mean, I’d have thought an insanely attentive boyfriend like this guy could catch the obvious “I’m not happy” red-flags she’s sending up.
He actually has a similar personality to Joyce at the beginning of roomies. Danny was actually trying to get rid of Joyce back then.
Ever read It’s Walky!?
Because he thought Sal was the ideal, perfect girlfriend. Not some insane broad at all.
Even when he was dating Billie for years, and she was jumping through prison walls, legally documented insane, he thought she was perfect for him because he clinged to what was once so comfortable.
relationship FAIL
She’ll break it up but then he’s gonna wine about it and she is going to pitty him and stay with him and then rethink it and think about what OTHERS!! will think of her ( that what all of us do directly or indirectly ) and then dump his sorry behind.
It occurs to me, what if Danny is aware of the situation and is about to preempt her?
We’ve GOT to get New Danny and Old School Walky in a room together to ‘brainstorm’.
Umm, are their groins having a separate conversation?
Danny looks more like he’s talking out of his ass in that shot to me.
Danny…your man card.
Hand it over.
Dude. When a woman tells you that they want to talk about your relationship 99% of the time it’s bad.
This guy is almost too dumb to live or at least too positive for his own good.
I take that back. I’d have gotten a sinking feeling by now. Probably WOULD have gotten it when she wanted to speak alone. That is always ALWAYS a bad sign.
Captain Oblivious has entered the room everyone! Not that he notices.
Damn, I legit feel bad for Danny right now.
