You’ll be like ah man i wish i bought that bridge earlier. but its too late cause i bough that bridge and ill be chilling on the moon with the moonites but then they will probably rob me and give me the finger. Damn you Ragnal and your bridge to the moon!

              Hey, at least the Everywhere Door(or was it the Anywhere Door) is cheaper than the Intergalactic Express or Space Bridge may or may not send you halfway across the galaxy.

                I concede in this debate the everywhere door is probably more cost effective then buying the bridge.

      Soooo, Danny should stop being Danny, then.

      While we’re at it…

      Billie should stop drinking, go to AA meetings and such, quit confusing College with Dazed and Confused, and working on being less of a Canis familiaris of the female variety in general.

      Amber should stop copying the premise from Kick-Ass.

      Joe could afford to tone down his Warren Beatty syndrome a bit, as this country has enough womanizing douchebags as it is.

      Mike could be rendered harmless if someone would only drop his master ring in the fires of Orodruin from which he forged it.

      Dorothy needs to both get over herself and adopt a much more pragmatic outlook (therefore much less naive) towards her aspirations, be they political or whatnot.

      Sal needs quit focusing on honing her James Dean persona all the damn time to at least take advantage of being enrolled in a 4 year University so, you know, Taco Bell and Stripping aren’t her best means of financial support, once she gets tired of living with her parents, 4 years from now.

      Rocksteady needs to fix Arkham City’s bugs with the Logitech Dual Action gamepads and make with some Scarecrow and Black Mask side-Mission DLC Chop-chop!

      Alright, I’m Done.

        Why stop when you can accelerate 120% faster?

        Billie will be so ravenous she will pounce on any men in campus.

        Amber decide to become full time Amazi-Girl, no more weak Amber!

        Joe is male equivalent of Billie, they can be partner in crime (or partner in hanky panky timey).

        Mike will do EVERYONE for a nickel.

        Dorothy became a politician.

        Sal will carry a RPG rocket launcher and “create” holes for her escape, and making money.

        Rocksteady will say f*ck it, and create a Batman Superman crossover game without DC permission and getting millions from it.

        Alrighty I’m done here too!

          Just being sarcastic, and snarking over what I otherwise agree
          about is all.

          The Arkham City bit was a little non sequitur humor. Oh, and
          scratch the Black Mask DLC remark. Just found out it’s part of
          the Robin DLC. Just the Scarecrow DLC now.
          Scared that what’s left of Professor Crane won’t make an Arkham
          City appearance? Yes I am…

        That reminds me of a time when, the summer after high school, I was at my girlfriend’s house. We were in her room, under her covers, shirts off, doing… journalism. We had forgotten to lock the door before beginning our “private interview.”

        Her sister, a Freshman in high school, walks in and asks what we’re doing. “It’s cold in here,” I say, clutching the blankets tighter to my neck, hoping little sis won’t catch a glimpse of a bare shoulder.

        “Why is your shirt on the floor?”

        “… I was hot.”

        “Uhh, okay, well… I’m gonna go make lunch. You guys hungry?”

        So, yeah, journalism can easily lead to shirtlessness and NOTHING ELSE HAPPENED GUISE I SWEARS IT!

      It turns out that he couldn’t get it up. He was just excited to tell Joe that a girl actually came on to him. Obviously he didn’t want Amber to know, but in the process he made it look even worse than what it really was. Joe was looking at “Mr. Limpy”.

    “Nothing” was an Elizabethan euphemism for “vagina” and “noting” (which at the time, sounded quite similar to “nothing”) was a euphemism for “sex”, so Danny isn’t lying, he’s making a Shakespearean double entendre.

      Well of course nothing happens. Danny is just getting “interviewed”. That’s all.

        Probably. After all, Joe’s been trying to get Danny laid since the semester started. And judging by the fact he added Dorothy to his list before the break-up even happened, I think its safe to assume he’s okay with sloppy seconds.

    You know…I think Danny’s actually telling the truth. I think Joe saw them just before he stopped her. I wonder if it was because of Amber, or he just doesn’t like things so casual, or what?

    Wait till he tries telling Amber that Billie jumped his bones for having an old computer.

Who should be the default doodle for Book 14?
