I think he’s got a similar sort of dorky charm to Hanson, but man I didn’t realize Hanson looked that old now. I’m aware of their post-MMMbop career but I still imagined them as fairly young.
Today I learned that there are several WAP covers on ukelele on YouTube, as well as detailed ukelele tutorials on how to play the song. Here’s my favorite: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B3tQbHwt_HY
Welp, we’ve done it. We’ve hit Peak Sal Cuteness with those last two panels.
This may be the most adorable comic strip of all comics of all time. I can’t decide on my favorite part: Danny hearing what he thinks is a request for a WAP ukelele cover of all things and just 100% committing? Sal trying desperately not to giggle at what an endearing doof her boyfriend is?
It’s times like this where I really wish that Danny had an internal voice in my head I could hear the way Becky and Sal do, because I would love to hear what my brain thinks a ukelele cover of WAP would sound like.
Fee fee fi fi fo fo fum
I smell smoke in the auditorium!
CHARLIE BROWN
CHARLIE BROWN
He’s a clown/That CHARLIE BROWN!–and on the anniversary of PEANUTS‘ debut too.
I wonder if Danny would get an n-word pass as long as he’s singing unfitting songs on the uke? I’m black and would find that very funny in real life but I don’t speak for the whole community.
I’ll say what I told my best friend. “You can say it around me, I know you’re a nice guy. But if you say it in public and someone starts whooping your ass I’m not gonna help you.”
I think in general, you get passes as long you’re doing things like singing songs or even quoting other popular media – as long as you’re not doing it so you get to say the word.
Based on my experience as a white person and seeing discourse on this topic over the years I think we shouldn’t ever say it regardless of if we’re quoting. The only exception being an acting role where saying it is in your lines (I.e. you’re playing a racist character and that’s the point). Apart from that specific professional reason I don’t think there’s any reason to do it. The risk of causing offence or harm is way to high.
When he made “Closer” by the Chainsmokers #1 on his top 10 list one year I was SHOCKED. Namely because I thought I was the only other person who loved that song.
That I didn’t have any issues with to be honest, when I first listened to that song I tried to find something to nick pick it but I ended up just playing it again and again for a week straight.
Todd can detail to me why one song succeeds and another fails when they’re trying for the same goal. He also must study a lot of music from before he was born to make many of his videos.
I don’t always agree with him (or anybody) but his opinions are well-grounded, which is what critiquing is about.
Reminds me of Natasha Allegri, of Bee and puppycat fame, Performing “Move bongo” on Ukulele https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz1MQljLuzw (only youtube video I can find with the clip, but it’s also a cute animation so that’s just a bonus)
I would have assumed Doo-Wap would’ve meant she wanted to listen to some syncopated 1960s-esque music and she wanted to sing it in sort of a round.
If I am classifying Doo-Wap music correctly. (or is it Doo-Wah?)
Doo wop’s heyday was before 1960. (Not that I was alive then, but I do remember it on the radio.) Three or four singers was the typical, and almost acapella was often the style. The best part of it is that there’s usually a vocal line for anyone to sing along to, for those of us who sing in the car.
1) I get that WAP is intended to shock. But…
2) Even as a teenager I would have considered the song crude and ugly. I don ‘t get it. What’s the appeal?
The appeal is that it celebrates female orgasm. Often, when mass media portrays female orgasm, they focus solely on those things that can be faked: facial expressions, gestures, vocalization… the potentially performative aspect of it. Self-lubrication of the vagina is much harder to fake, unless one uses lube before beginning sexual relations. It’s more of a biomechanical response to pleasure than an act one can put on for show. Given the amount of time our culture spends shaming women who want and get sexual pleasure, the song is revolutionary in its unabashed celebration of the physical response. “I don’t cook. I don’t clean. Let me tell you how I got this ring.” It recognizes that sex and marriage are often transactional and glorifies the sexually fulfilled wife as a successful businesswoman.
That’s alright, not everything is to everyone’s taste. Some people don’t like Kingdom Hearts for being le epic cringe, and while I question what’s wrong with them, I understand too that it’s not my responsibility to raise their babies.
Women’s sexuality is vilified in our current society. Women are not supposed to enjoy sex, and they certainly aren’t supposed to brag about being good at it. WAP is a fun song for people who want to celebrate women’s sexuality rather than hide it. It’s not gonna be fun for everybody, but it does appeal to a lot of people.
If I had a nickel for every time this week I’ve encountered the version of “99 Problems” from the end credits of the 2011 remake of Fright Night, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
I don’t have the quote, but he basically said that a woman being wet “down there” means something is obviously medically wrong and that HIS wife has never been wet at all.
So he unknowingly told the world that he has never made a woman sexually aroused in his life.
Also if you think WAP is “””crude and ugly””” i sincerely hope you never listen to any of Doja Cats non radio play songs. You’d have a heart attack
Go to town, Rules, Freak, Cyber Sex. I listen to her too much to understand the backlash to WAP
Sexually explicit lyrics are abundant all over the place and have been for decades. It’s not the “what” so much as the “where”. Nobody cares about sexually explicit lyrics until they hit the mainstream and the songs become hard to avoid for sheltering parents and their offspring.
And just adding to that, there’s like thirteen trillion songs about cocks that get played more or less uncensored because double standards are wild. Make one song about your downstairs fancy place though, and suddenly it’s a sign of Everything Wrong With The World.
George Formby songs would sound weird played on anything else. Especially the ones that are actually about ukeleles.
Conclusion: George Formby songs should not be played at all.
With me little ukelele in me hand,
Of course, the people do not understand.
They say “Why don’t you be a scout, why don’t you read a book?”
But I get much more pleasure when I’m playin’ with me uke.
He used to be on a show called Game Grumps with some anti-vax weirdo, and he made a lot of cartoons about video games. Also said the N word in a rap video about doing taxes.
“I am way too cool to be more than vaguely familiar with the song I asked you to play.”
Because I am Old (Gen X), I still listen to the radio, which means I am more familiar with MmmBop than I had any desire to be, and am conceptually aware of WAP but not the actual lyrics.
Definitely should be in the running for “We are a bunch of Millennials yet.” So, I wonder if Willis has been waiting to pull this, hmmm, yeah, for the longest time.
I dunno. Considering how he handles Sal’s relationship is both fun and doesn’t drain social batteries very much, I think he’s the best kinda boyfriend, really.
Sal, if you are trying to show that you are too cool to know the actual song title, you kind of blew it by admitting that you know the name of the “band” that performs it. (yes, I realize that the joke falls apart if she doesn’t know either)
Loading ...
worried if Sal’s asking bc she unironically loves the song or just knows it’s in Danny’s range
half expecting her to ask for O’Charley (iCarly) in a minute
I think it’s because Danny looks like a member of Hanson.
You mean Henson. He’s a Muppet.
A+
to be fair it is quite literally a bop
*quick google*
Does he?
aw nerts that was supposed to be a reply to the late thag simmons
I think he’s got a similar sort of dorky charm to Hanson, but man I didn’t realize Hanson looked that old now. I’m aware of their post-MMMbop career but I still imagined them as fairly young.
imagining it was kind of a more creative “play wonderwall”
I think it’s because of his dorky nature and skin color.
It fills me with such joy that Danny knows the lyrics by heart and can improv the song on his uke.
Improv? This was clearly rehearsed!
I dunno what’s funnier, this or the idea of Danny listening to WAP because that promises hilarity.
YAY THESE DORKS!
Play 679 next!
Such a dork.
They’re perfect.
DO WAP
Dying of the cute over here!
The sort of folks who’ll be as cute 50 years later.
Sal’s face in the last panel is the mood. Amazing.
And that’s the last time anyone can play WAP on the uke.
Danny’s a certified freak anyway.
“Ninja”
Worse than zero – I’m pretty sure that comes from ICP covers of black-written hip hop songs.
ICP? I couldn’t read the underlined alt-text.
ICP is short for Insane Clown Posse.
“Either your replacement game is a 10 (“Baby” in Lizzo’s Juice) or a 1 (“Buddy” in Doja Cat and SZA’s Kiss Me More). Danny gets a 0 on that.”
Ah. Thank you!
Seven days a week, even.
I am going to have to reconsider where Danny goes in the Reeses Puffs/CPR/Misery meme.
…where were you putting him in the Reeses Puffs/CPR/Misery meme before?
Now I can’t unsee Danny belting out REESE’S PUFFS REESE’S PUFFS, EAT ‘EM UP EAT ‘EM UP EAT ‘EM UP
Come one, Sajuuk-Khar. That is ABSOLUTELY a Walky role.
…Okay, that’s true, that part is 100,000% Walky.
what does WAP sound like on a ukulele?
Like it’s going to break it.
Or at least cause it some water damage.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qcmcop1KB68&ab_channel=SebastianPrentice like this apparently lol
Excuse me but I NEED to hear this played on a ukelele
Well, in the meantime, here’s Hanson’s Mmmbop (Doowop) on the hacked ukelele:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XjH_a7J-BcM
Today I learned that there are several WAP covers on ukelele on YouTube, as well as detailed ukelele tutorials on how to play the song. Here’s my favorite:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B3tQbHwt_HY
That was flurpin’ awesome. Thank you for that.
You’re welcome!
This is probably the cutest, sweetest, most innocent DOA strip ever to feature lyrics to WAP.
Also, just generally. This is SO ADORABLE (sorry, Sal, you have adorable).
Welp, we’ve done it. We’ve hit Peak Sal Cuteness with those last two panels.
This may be the most adorable comic strip of all comics of all time. I can’t decide on my favorite part: Danny hearing what he thinks is a request for a WAP ukelele cover of all things and just 100% committing? Sal trying desperately not to giggle at what an endearing doof her boyfriend is?
It’s times like this where I really wish that Danny had an internal voice in my head I could hear the way Becky and Sal do, because I would love to hear what my brain thinks a ukelele cover of WAP would sound like.
Something about my current avatar makes this comment very funny to sleep deprived me.
(For those reading this a year from now when the grav roulette gets shuffled again, I’ve currently got a Danny avatar)
I was gonna say, I *love* Sal when she’s with Danny. She *needs* this.
Challenge: find a way to top those two panels of Sal cuteness.
It would surely change the world forever.
This is extremely cursed.
Just in time for Halloween, eh?
Speaking of which, gotta game planned that I can hopefully release before then!
If not, there’s always room for a literal nightmare before christmas i guess, but still….

Who called de English teacher “Daddio”!
See? Sometimes it’s ok to Danny it.
Fuck this man, Sal.
Fuck his brains out.
… speaking of WAP…
That’s the songs intended use.
*plays “Shout!” by the Isley Brothers on hacked muzak*
At the first available opportunity.
Wait, they’re in the soundproof music practice room together and they’re actually practicing music?
I mean, presumably not soundproof if you can hear it down the hall.
So you remember that early Slipshine?
I think this may be the hardest I have ever laughed in my entire life. I needed to drink some water after this one, holy fuck.
I need Danny to do a cover of a certain Dynamite Hack song.
I wonder if Danny would get an n-word pass as long as he’s singing unfitting songs on the uke? I’m black and would find that very funny in real life but I don’t speak for the whole community.
I’ll say what I told my best friend. “You can say it around me, I know you’re a nice guy. But if you say it in public and someone starts whooping your ass I’m not gonna help you.”
I’d give him a pass in that very specific instance
I think in general, you get passes as long you’re doing things like singing songs or even quoting other popular media – as long as you’re not doing it so you get to say the word.
That most definitely has not been the consensus I’ve seen but then maybe I’ve been looking in different places than you.
Based on my experience as a white person and seeing discourse on this topic over the years I think we shouldn’t ever say it regardless of if we’re quoting. The only exception being an acting role where saying it is in your lines (I.e. you’re playing a racist character and that’s the point). Apart from that specific professional reason I don’t think there’s any reason to do it. The risk of causing offence or harm is way to high.
This is genuinely the funniest strip in ages.
Todd in the Shadows is adamant that Hanson became very good in their later years and I’m inclined to believe him.
A fellow person of culture, I see.
What can I say. Everyone knows that I like TITS.
If Todd in the shadows taught me anything it’s that music the most opinionated topic there. Especially since I’m 50/50 with his opinions.
Especially one year with one of his yearly top 10 songs of the year vids had California girls over of better songs.
When he made “Closer” by the Chainsmokers #1 on his top 10 list one year I was SHOCKED. Namely because I thought I was the only other person who loved that song.
That I didn’t have any issues with to be honest, when I first listened to that song I tried to find something to nick pick it but I ended up just playing it again and again for a week straight.
Liked it more than I thought.
Well he put California girls in this top ten best and worst. Its guilty pleasure
Fellow Todd fans! Yes!
Todd can detail to me why one song succeeds and another fails when they’re trying for the same goal. He also must study a lot of music from before he was born to make many of his videos.
I don’t always agree with him (or anybody) but his opinions are well-grounded, which is what critiquing is about.
“I Was Born” genuinely slaps.
When I saw Todd video I made a search to see for myself and honestly their songs were fine. He was right
Reminds me of Natasha Allegri, of Bee and puppycat fame, Performing “Move bongo” on Ukulele
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz1MQljLuzw (only youtube video I can find with the clip, but it’s also a cute animation so that’s just a bonus)
I would have assumed Doo-Wap would’ve meant she wanted to listen to some syncopated 1960s-esque music and she wanted to sing it in sort of a round.
If I am classifying Doo-Wap music correctly. (or is it Doo-Wah?)
I hear “doo-wap” and I start hearing this very specific snippet from Weird Al’s “Polka Power”, y’know, the one that leads into “Sex and Candy”.
*quick google*
THAT’S MMMBOP?
Damn, i guess it’s a common mistake
I LOVE that there are people in the universe who use Weird Al Polka medleys as their classic music touchstones.
That is my understanding of doo-wop.
The dictionary on my iPad says it’s a style of pop music marked by the use of close harmony vocals using nonsense phrases.
I’m not sure what a close harmony is, but considering the chorus of the song, mmmbop might be considered a form of doo-wop, at least for that part.
Doo wop’s heyday was before 1960. (Not that I was alive then, but I do remember it on the radio.) Three or four singers was the typical, and almost acapella was often the style. The best part of it is that there’s usually a vocal line for anyone to sing along to, for those of us who sing in the car.
I….love Danny so much.
Find you a guy who on request will sing you WAP on a Ukulele no question asked.
1) I get that WAP is intended to shock. But…
2) Even as a teenager I would have considered the song crude and ugly. I don ‘t get it. What’s the appeal?
3) I just listened to Mmmbop. I can understand why someone would like that.
The appeal is that it celebrates female orgasm. Often, when mass media portrays female orgasm, they focus solely on those things that can be faked: facial expressions, gestures, vocalization… the potentially performative aspect of it. Self-lubrication of the vagina is much harder to fake, unless one uses lube before beginning sexual relations. It’s more of a biomechanical response to pleasure than an act one can put on for show. Given the amount of time our culture spends shaming women who want and get sexual pleasure, the song is revolutionary in its unabashed celebration of the physical response. “I don’t cook. I don’t clean. Let me tell you how I got this ring.” It recognizes that sex and marriage are often transactional and glorifies the sexually fulfilled wife as a successful businesswoman.
That is very interesting, seriously, but I still think this song is ugly.
Sex is messy.
Some people dig that. Others (e.g. Carla) think that’s gross.
That’s alright, not everything is to everyone’s taste. Some people don’t like Kingdom Hearts for being le epic cringe, and while I question what’s wrong with them, I understand too that it’s not my responsibility to raise their babies.
People like Crude and ugly things! Especially people who themselves are crude and ugly.
Exactly!! It’s fun to be deviant, it’s fun to be sexual. It’s fun to participate in art that celebrates things that are deemed inappropriate.
but that’s the thing, WAP isn’t deviant. it’s like-and-subscribe! feminism, about as authentic as a kardashian. its an affront to everything filthy.
In panel 4, Danny has explained the appeal.
https://www.dumbingofage.com/2021/comic/book-12/01-sister-christian/pullin/#comments
What the hell is happening when I HTML a link? What in the world. Anyway. In panel four of THIS comic, Danny, explaining the appeal.
It’s always interesting to go back to one of those strips from a while back and see what gravatar you have on that comment, and see what you said.
Crude and ugly can be very popular. It can even get elected President. I prefer crude and ugly in songs rather than in positions of power.
It’s funny.
Women’s sexuality is vilified in our current society. Women are not supposed to enjoy sex, and they certainly aren’t supposed to brag about being good at it. WAP is a fun song for people who want to celebrate women’s sexuality rather than hide it. It’s not gonna be fun for everybody, but it does appeal to a lot of people.
Some people find these things funny which creates an appeal. For select people and basically no one else.
And that’s a good thing. We need more things that are for like five people in Wisconsin.
What have those five people in Wisconsin done to deserve a thing.
It slaps and Megan is comedic genius
Oh This is SO adorable and refreshing.
. . . Y’all laugh at this, but I’m totally picturing Danny busting out something actually kinda cool, like Hugo’s version of “99 Problems.” *LMAO*
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swnudbCnccs
I mean, undoubtedly, this is what he actually sounded like:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_MTpiXYVRo
A. MAZE. ZING.
Wow! I love that version!
If I had a nickel for every time this week I’ve encountered the version of “99 Problems” from the end credits of the 2011 remake of Fright Night, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
THEY CONTINUE TO BE CUTE. <3
Maybe after Doowop Danny can make up for this by playing “You get what you give” by new radicals. That one’s always a vibe.
lmao a shame no teams are dubbing this, it’d be amusing to see how they’d handle the musical parts
This is too cute. So cute. My heart is aching it’s so cute. I want these adorkable goofs to date and be happy forever.
I love this couple. I don’t think I would ever be comfortable singing the lyrics to WAP, if I even knew all the lyrics.
okay a genuine no-irony Sal Smile is fucking precious and we need more of those, also these two might damn well be perfect for each other
This is hilarious!
Ben Shapiro has an interesting comment about WAP. Also probably his biggest self-own.
He’d be rolling in his grave if he were alive to read this strip.
I don’t think he’d dead? Just his sex life, probably.
I don’t want to taint my google algorithm, with Shapiro searches, would you be willing to quote?
I don’t have the quote, but he basically said that a woman being wet “down there” means something is obviously medically wrong and that HIS wife has never been wet at all.
So he unknowingly told the world that he has never made a woman sexually aroused in his life.
I mean, we already knew that just from hearing the guy talk, but it was nice to get confirmation.
Wow. Wow, he just… wow. Oh, wow. I already felt sorry for her, but wow.
A moment where you need to pause and ask “Did you really just say that about yourself?”
I think my favorite version of wap is just when people edit him to make him sing it
Also if you think WAP is “””crude and ugly””” i sincerely hope you never listen to any of Doja Cats non radio play songs. You’d have a heart attack
Go to town, Rules, Freak, Cyber Sex. I listen to her too much to understand the backlash to WAP
Sexually explicit lyrics are abundant all over the place and have been for decades. It’s not the “what” so much as the “where”. Nobody cares about sexually explicit lyrics until they hit the mainstream and the songs become hard to avoid for sheltering parents and their offspring.
And just adding to that, there’s like thirteen trillion songs about cocks that get played more or less uncensored because double standards are wild. Make one song about your downstairs fancy place though, and suddenly it’s a sign of Everything Wrong With The World.
Sorry this reply ended up in the wrong place. Hopefully you can guess where it was meant to go by my verbage
“Wet Ass P-Word” is one of the greatest hip hop remixes of all time and you can’t change my mind on that.
This is… So… CUTE.
I know. These guys are my favorite subplot.
Same, sometimes we just need A LOT of sweetness <3
this is what i imagine danny sounds like right now
I like the Sinatra AI version better.

Even though that was a misunderstanding, it’s sweet that he did the song anyway. Doing so can’t have been comfortable for him.
Gotta say, Sal is just adorable right now
Happy Sal is amazing.
We’ve had some terribly awkward moments, but today, Danny became a national treasure.
Songs that should not be played on ukelele:
All of them.
Where’s the upvote button? We need an upvote button!
Somewhere Over The Rainbow would beg to differ.
Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
Rainbows are nice.
Somewhere over the Rainbow belongs on the list of “Songs that should not be played, ever.” That includes on Ukulele.
George Formby songs would sound weird played on anything else. Especially the ones that are actually about ukeleles.
Conclusion: George Formby songs should not be played at all.
With me little ukelele in me hand,
Of course, the people do not understand.
They say “Why don’t you be a scout, why don’t you read a book?”
But I get much more pleasure when I’m playin’ with me uke.
Bertie Wooster agrees. https://youtu.be/_eEIIB5hVy4
Christ, Danny, how is cringe your only super power?
I don’t even KNOW who Hanson is
“You will.”
This song was inescapable for a couple years in the late 90s.

He used to be on a show called Game Grumps with some anti-vax weirdo, and he made a lot of cartoons about video games. Also said the N word in a rap video about doing taxes.
He’s dropped a few N-bombs in his day. He started off as a voice actor in the Newgrounds Portal’s glory days, after all…
Game Grumps is a hell of a rabbit hole to fall into. Somehow it’s even deeper than Cinemassacre lore.
No no no, Hanson’s still performing on the show pretty regularly, they just added a new guy who’s probably what Danny will grow up to be.
… My god, they even share a name…
Who was the anti-vax weirdo? Jon?
They will doink in the music room, won’t they?
“I am way too cool to be more than vaguely familiar with the song I asked you to play.”
Because I am Old (Gen X), I still listen to the radio, which means I am more familiar with MmmBop than I had any desire to be, and am conceptually aware of WAP but not the actual lyrics.
So sweet. I don’t think Sal has ever been so in love in her life before ♡.
A doo-wop version of MMMbop, from Postmodern Jukebox.

This strip made me laugh out loud
Man I haven’t had a good laugh like this for awhile. This was funny!
oh goddddddd i love this particular strip so much thank u
I haven’t giggled out loud so hard at a strip in a while
Sal’s about to double over in laughter and it’s very cute.
I’m sure Sal really wants Danny to park his big Mack truck right in her little garage after this
“MMMBop” should never be played on a ukulele.
“MMMBop” should never be played PERIOD.
He should do Doo Wop by Lauryn Hill
Definitely should be in the running for “We are a bunch of Millennials yet.” So, I wonder if Willis has been waiting to pull this, hmmm, yeah, for the longest time.
Danny is both the worst boyfriend and the absolute best.
I dunno. Considering how he handles Sal’s relationship is both fun and doesn’t drain social batteries very much, I think he’s the best kinda boyfriend, really.
They’re adorable. I hate Danny playing WAP on the bloody ukulele, but that’s adorable.
Sal, if you are trying to show that you are too cool to know the actual song title, you kind of blew it by admitting that you know the name of the “band” that performs it. (yes, I realize that the joke falls apart if she doesn’t know either)
