    After that Friday, they really fear waking SAL more?

      She’s more likely to murder them since if she can disappear for days on end, it’ll be easier for her to know a good spot to hide the body.

      Hmm, wonder if we’re ever going to see where Sal goes?

        I don’t think Sal’s demonstrated actual violence, though, has she? Well, in THIS universe.

          Reminds me of a funny story from college.

          My roommate and I were watching DBZ on a TV which faced away from the door which we habitually kept open. We were watching a scene with lots of grunting and powering up, and our friend from New Jersey stopped by the door with this look on his face. His words?

          “Are you guys watching gay porn?”

            We already have enough problems as it is, trying to explain to people when we mention it that 1)it’s not a knock off line of Transformers 2) ran for nearly a decade in over 9 different shows and 3)had some of the more inventive molds ever.

            Joe would set us back. Trust me.

          I was out shopping for Ugg boots but I couldn’t find any in size 13.

    I almost didn’t recognize Billie here: sober, cheerful, no glasses, hair down…

        Maybe this is what Billie is like when she remains sober after the hangover dissipates.

          That… is actually plausible. Though she might start exhibiting withdrawal symptoms soon.

    Yeah, I’d be scared of Sal too. Then again, I’d be scared of Sarah as well, given what happened that Friday.

    Did Sarah find their silent chatter deafening cos they weren’t saying nothing in the first panel.

    …Wait, does this mean Sal was actually in her room? Sleeping? This is clearly some sort of alternate reality. As if there weren’t enough of those with these characters.

      They couldn’t find her but you never know with Sal. She could be hiding anywhere.

    So Billie is sober, and talking to Joyce nicely. At the foot of Sarahs bunk. And Sal is sleeping in her own room. Humm. Very odd.

      Yes, I expect Dottie to show up wearing a beard any time now, confirming we’re in an Alternate Universe, ah University.

      (I thought about awarding Ethan the beard, but he’d already got one a few strips ago.)

      Better yet, make a new storyline about the holiday of “staturday”. When it finally cycles out of the buffer we’ll all think you made up a new holiday just for the storyline!

    Personally I like the Staturday, it adds a level of realistic-ness since nobody can be expected to pronounce all words properly after being woken up in the morning.

    woah isn’t Sarah sleeping in Joyce’s bunk? Wasn’t Sarah spanking Joyce to get up the ladder into that bunk last night?
    WO/AH.

        But are they in one bunk bed, or in two separate beds, both lofted? Now that Complex mentions it, I am slightly confused that they seem to both sleep in the top bunk.

          there are no bottom bunks.

    Why did Sarah wear lipstick to bed? Expecting a prince charming to come by?

    Sarah has a weird and creepy boob shadow. It’s like she’s being felt up by a ghost.
