One may wonder why, since neither Amber or Dina (or Amazi-Girl) are the sort to have thrown parties in the past, they already have a collection of Red Solo Cups right there.
Well, this is college and alcohol is present. Those cups just naturally sprouted there, like mushrooms after rain. Nature is amazing.
Are they the kind with scrape thingies on the side so you can mark them?
Probably, those have evolved into the dominant subspecies.
Maybe someone else made a Village Pantry run, or Zoomer-Dashed them from Target or something. They’re cheap and disposable.
> They’re cheap and disposable.
Not taking a shot at you needful, I just need to mumble-grouse about plastic waste, microplastics, and chemical leaching.
It’s an admittedly obtuse reference to the song Red Solo Cup by Toby Keith.
“And, unlike my home, they are not forcloseable (FreddyMac kiss my ass!) *Woo!*”
i imagine amazigirl confiscated them from some other illicit party in the past
Perhaps Dina took them. She is small and often unobserved.
As one of the residence council who used to organize the dorm keg parties on the regular, I can confirm that red solo cups are ridiculously easy to get your mitts on, even when you’re a poor college student. Especially if you live in a college town.

Okay so the next arc is gonna be almost entirely on slipshine? Yeah sure why not
The important point is that Sarah, of all people, knows how to PARTY!
Showing off the arms I see
Her constitutional right, after all.
Quick turnaround on the fashion suggestion
She sprinted back to her room and tore the arms off every shirt she owned in a frenzy.
So if the theme is no shirts… Jacob and Joe in the same room together, shirtless.
Yes, just like my fantasies
And then they start kissing and we realize we’re seeing Amber’s fantasies.
No no, first they have a sweaty flex off.
That’s Joyce’s fantasy right
What type of guy is Amber’s “Type” though?
She did want to date Ethan, but he was younger/smaller back then. And in the comic she (or her alter ego) have been involved with Walky and Danny, none of which have been particularly muscular.
(The one hint that she likes guys that are “fit” is when she commented on Mike’s abs.)
Guys who unironically watch My Little Pony
So fit, though not necessarily built like Joe & Jacob, but also with some not traditionally masculine traits.
Literally Google what you can mix with that kind of booze
Amateurs GAWD
Since we still haven’t been told what exactly that is, I’m waiting for the reveal that it’s just tonic water or something in a gimmicky jug.
I feel like the options are tonic or everclear with no middle ground.
Ouzo if we want at least one of them to swear off of drinking
Hey! Some of us LIKE ouzo. And also Vicks Formula 44 which tastes a lot like ouzo… which I discovered during a sleepover in 1st grade (Vicks Formula 44 tasting good, ouzo came decades later.
Oh godz ouzo! Oh the horror; oh the humanity! :O
*flashback ensues
My money is on corn whiskey. Specifically clear, unaged corn whiskey.
Judging from the presentation that is some form of straight hard liquor with no sweeteners or added flavor. Possibly professionally distilled moonshine. Can’t go wrong with juice or your favorite soda. Might not taste great but better than straight from the bottle.
Or get some lemon juice or lime juice mix with a sugar syrup made at a ratio of one or two parts sugar to one part water and you’ve got sour mix to make (whatever is in the jug) sours.
Now all that goes out the window if we’re looking at some gimmicky packaging for beer or hard cider. Someone needs to crack it open and take a sniff and a sip if they want to get mixers.
It’s liquor and mix it with milk, or it’s a mega-growler of Dos Equis.
I’ve seen sour recipes as 2 parts strong, 1 part sour (lemon juice), 1 part sweet (simple syrup). Optional egg white and bitters.
I mean, it’s got to say on the bottle itself.
If it’s at all legal to sell and it’s not really moonshine.
Just get a bunch of random things and see what mixes. More fun that way
Dina will teach dinosaurs to ride on a ball!!!! <3
<*plays "Head Cha La" on hacked muzak*
are you implying that Dina-sama is the same spirit as Toriyama-sama? I like this head canon
obligatory RIP Legend Akira Toriyama T_T o7
Dina has a power level far greater than earthlings could ever imagine.
Did Sarah changed into a sleeveless shirt because Jacob said he liked her arms? That’s adorable. And I have to agree, she looks very nice.
Cut to Joyce looking perplexedly at an inexplicable pile of individual sleeves and a pair of scissors on the floor.
Kinda waiting to find out if that is in fact actually alcohol and not a novelty joke bottle of water.
Still waiting for someone to read the label.
Has the clock moved? It’s only 12:19
I’ve never had a dinosaur themed party…
I’ve been doing it all wrong!
You should try Sarah’s tops! (Sorry)
Never apologize for a good bad pun.
Do, because otherwise I don’t notice!
*applauds
That was really well done.
Topless Dinosaur Party!
Who could say no to that?
Maybe some snacks? Pass the hat for pizza? Grab soma sodas for mixers and/or people who need a break from booze?
The theme is dinosaurs, queue up a few dinosaur movies and play them in order from ‘least offensive to Dina’ to ‘most offensive to Dina?
Tell Joyce to bring Apples to Apples?
So many things can be added to a party that’s just a jug, some solo cups, and two hoodies.
“I got two turntables and a micro… er, I mean: I got two cool hoodies and a moonshine jug!”
Shouldn’t dinosaur parties have rat-like theraspids as snacks?
those for the obligate carnivores
herbivores would eat tree stars
or cereal
No, that’s Steve.
Well, I guess Steven Spielberg had to sustain himself on *something* while working on The Land Before Time *^-^*
I was talking about <a href="https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2407" title="another Steve", but okay.
Learn to , peter
“In order from least offensive to Dina to most offensive to Dina”
Do we really want Drunk-And-Angry-At-Bad-Dinosaur-Representation-Movies Dina? Yes. Yes we do.
I didn’t know I wanted this, but I really really do.
Or like, literally anything carby to eat with all that booze so they don’t immediately get sick
Apples to apples? Is that that tame Cards Against Humanity ripoff? /s
Seeing that Joyce has broken the F-bomb barrier (YIPPEE), I’m guessing she’d opt for Cards Against Humanity now >:D
yep not good to have alcohol on an empty stomach (well it’ll prolly get you drunk faster but prolly terrible for your system. well their ‘youth’ can prolly cleanse it out better than an unhealthy 40 yera old but good to have better habits tsarting young)
If those hoodies are zip-ups, then it could still be topless
With an unmarked bottle like that, nobody knows the taste of it
Google says the largest bottle of Dos Equis in this universe is the 24 oz. Anything larger comes in cans or kegs and has that nasty aluminum under-taste.
…
Okay, a few days ago when I said Sarah would be a wet blanket about this party?
Retracted.
She already knows her friend circle is not the kind to do anything harmful during a party even with alcohol involved. (psysically speaking at least.) Or force her to participate if she choses not to.
Even if they’re doing the no shirts thing, they can still have a wet blanket contest!
Sarah likes/respects dina tho, i’m sure if she’d just simply leave if she didn’t wanna deal with the drinking
but maybe if she gets tipsy she can have another ’emotional’ convo with jacob (surprised she didn’t have a shot before talking to him but guess it’d be bad to dependo n alcohol as a social lubricant for her to be open with his emotions)
So what I’m hearing is that Sarah knows how to throw raging parties but it unwilling to go through with any.
I predict if all the female guests take off their shirts etc. Jacob being a heterosexual male will be much more entertained than any of the “fairer” guests. With the possible exception of any bi- or homo-sexual women not in relationships.
I don’t think being in a relationship would make it less entertaining so much as it might force one to be a bit more discreet. And/or have an understanding.
If both Joe and Jacob are there, Joyce will definitely be as entertained as any straight male. And if Ethan were there and still looked like he did before a few months of depressive mopeyness, it’s entirely possible she would melt and never be found again, except when everyone else slipped on her, fell over and got concussions.
…OK, that went somewhere weirder than I expected.
I… don’t think that’s how Jacob would respond. He is a heterosexual male, but he is also very cautious regarding sexual activity. He described sex as as scary and being objectified as a sex object as dehumanizing. I suspect he wouldn’t be comfortable having his body ogled like that.
Grah I can’t link grah.

They need hilighters and a blacklight if there is going to be toplessness, goldangit!
Just going to remind folks, that according to DYW, characters retain their sexuality from the other ‘verse. And Jacob was…
… and Dina was…
I don’t think nymphomania is usually considered a sexuality…
I’m not sure that either Jacob or Dina qualified for nymphomania, though for somewhat different reasons.
I mean Sarah…that would include you too. Y’know what yeah. I’m all for the “No shirts” party. Sounds fun.
The half-lidded eyes are giving Amber a real Daria vibe here.
When you realize your entire friend group are a bunch of socially awkward losers that don’t know how to throw a party. Actually who threw the Halloween party? Was that Joyce? Is Joyce somehow the party person? Either her or Becky who planned that joint Sarah and Dina birthday right?
I’m reasonably sure it was Joyce, because Sarah would never initiate hosting a party and it happened in their room.

Not to rub it in, but Dina continues not to be arrested for the theft of that liquid. Fuck consequences and anyone who might call for them.
Arrest or no arrest, with that much high-grade moonshine being consumed I’m certain that a lot of consequences will hangover them.
Robbing the feds of the alcohol tax money is a good thing maybe?
They’re clearly taking the time to organise a team of dinosaur hunters. Surprisingly few organisations seem to be prepared for such things.
I’m actually really worried about Dina getting arrested. I’m hoping that she either actually did buy it, got someone else to buy it, or ends up putting it back.
Dina buying it or getting someone else to buy it are also illegal, as is stealing it and putting it back after.
There isn’t a legal way for her to have this booze, plenty of people shoplift and drink underage without getting arrested. It’ll be okay.
Joe can wear his paleontology shirt.
Yay, dinosaur party!
The theme of the party is “dispose of the evidence one cup at a time”.
Relevant avatar is relevant.
That fits my memories of college parties. Unless it was a Halloween thing or something, themes beyond “let’s get a bunch of people together, hang out and drink” were pretty rare.
Guys, I have a better compromise. You can only wear one of Dina’s dinosaur clothes.
I’m not sure that they could all fit into just one of Dina’s dinosaur outfits.
Though I guess they could have fun trying.

Joyce agrees with Sarah’s theme and invites Joe XD
red cups and a bottle of hooch on a card table. Yep, it’s a college party.
Shirts vs Skins! And everyone’s Skins, ’cause we’re all on the same team here, right?
wooooh dino themed, my favourite
Okay, I know the party isn’t going to actually go in a “no shirts” direction. But…
Fingers crossed for a picture of the “no shirts” version of the party on the other patreon… fingers crossed for a picture of the “no shirts” version of the party on the other patreon…
Or, what the hell: If the party actually goes in a no shirts direction in the canon storyline, fingers crossed for uncensored panels of the “camera conveniently crops out the shirtless characters’ shirtless areas” on the other patreon.

Ain’t no hoodie like a Dina hoodie
Cos a Dina hoodie don’t stop.
No Shirts party Edit: NSFW
That was actually pretty good.
Pretty good? That was spectacular!
Wow!
What the — holy shit like you could have told me this was Willis’s work and I woulda believed it.
Wait… *checks scouter*
Porn Power… OVER 9000 <3
Now we just need Jacob and Joe and the girls reactions to them.
nice work, yoto~
Oh, good work!
this keg seems dead…
It’s just pining for the fjords!
oh!
traditionally in the USA, X’s are displayed on booze bottles as a rough indicator of their strength
(XX for instance for fortified liquors stronger than regular beer)
“My name is Tequila Montoya. You killed my bottle. Prepare to die.”
with one bottle of booze split among so many people the chances for all the life ruining people have been panicking about is vastly reduced, unless one of them chugs a bunch of it real quick.
Are they the same age/is he a bit older? lol well theyh prolly need one person to be sober and supervise them)
Why can’t Jacob drink?
i assumed he was under 21 like joyce? I think he was also called a freshman/shared classes so he’d be closer to joyce’s age than like 2-3 years into college already
Alt text started drinking early. Clearly the theme is bottomless, not topless. :/
