Comics are currently drawn and uploaded through:
Walky’s imdb biography includes such interesting trivia as “Number of McNuggets he can fit in his mouth” (12) and “Things he has pointed his weenus at” (ceiling crack, weird discoloration, itself).
I’m kinda glad I was never in any stupid fundie TV shows when I was a kid. Or any shows that might result in me being listed on the Internet at all really.
I burst out laughing every time I see that punchline. Internet’s a bongo, Walky.
Oh, Linda, you really paid it forward setting that role up.
And Amber, steer carefully, it’s very easy to tread into creepy doing stuff like that. I mean, public information is public information and I get sometimes someone’s social media is super rad and you want to scroll (tumblr does that to me a lot) but …like, watch yourself maybe?
I think if the filter ever went away there’d be a huge protest. Not because the comment section can’t handle a b-word here and there (if it’s not used as an attack), but because that filter’s almost a comment section mascot at this point.
IIRC, the only other word that currently gets filtered is the c-word. I know a three-letter acronym that begins with S and ends with W used to be filtered into “glistening phallus”, but not sure if that’s still in place – I know the filter on “For me, it was Tuesday” has been lifted.
The c-word filter (I think it now gets changed to “conga”?), the glistening phallus filter (which may or may not have been lifted), or the “For me…” filter?
Can’t remember when the other two took place, but the latter took place at the beginning of Faz is Great, when Faz quoted that line upon showing up in Amber’s room. I remember because I was one of the ones testing the then-still-active-filter on that phrase, only to find out later that day that my comments – along with the comments of everyone else who was testing it – were no longer having that phrase disappeared from existence.
(The phrase was originally filtered when the whole Amber/Sal stabbing backstory was initially revealed, due to an overuse of the phrase as regarding the two of them then. Or so I’ve heard.)
You’ve heard correctly about the reason for the phrase being filtered out. I believe ultra car used to be filtered out for a similar reason. People used to jokingly suspect her of being Amazi-Girl’s secret identity all the time (because Robin in the other universe actually believed that and it was a running gag there.
SJW? Interesting. Censor the ones who lead censorship. Fight fire with fire! Also, I just wanted an excuse to type the acronym to see what it gets turned into.
You… you do realize that that’s not a self-applied moniker, right? Changing it to different words did not annoy those you’d consider “””SJWs”””, it annoyed people who like calling other people that.
I doubt it. The b-word itself doesn’t seem to upset Willis, and we’re allowed to use it on Patreon. It’s specifically blocked here because people abused it when Roz yelled at Joyce and it got really creepy.
Walky can forgive stalking, but he wouldn’t forgive that his own mom made him appear in a christian fundamentalist show that indoctrinated people like Joyce.
He did get genuinely, legitimately appalled at Mary when she started trying to blame him for Billie’s depression and then revealed her blackmailing ways. As far as tags show that was their only interaction, but the level of badness and Mary’s General Mary-ness against Walky’s disdain for even sincere religion say to me he would have actually disliked her on any prior meeting as well.
He also made comments about how Gashface got what he deserved, but I don’t really count hating Toedad or Gashface as anything but the bar all sympathetic characters in this strip meet.
Aw c’mon, Joyce wouldn’t do tha- yeah okay she totally would. And I figure it was either her or some complete stranger (from the comic’s perspective at least), so…
Actually I guess it could have been Linda, making sure her precious boy was properly credited for that incredibly significant success. That would be… kind of not as funny.
Hymmel the Humming Hymnal might not be a real thing, but Psalty the Singing Songbook sure is and it is great in a terribly awful sort of way. Do yourself a favor and check it out on YouTube as you imagine young Master Willis watching it in his younger and more formative years.
I wonder if somehow someone could dummy up an entry in the IMDb listing for Psalty where Walky is listed as a bit player/extra? Sort of the same way “Who’s Who” and certain mapmakers used to insert a fictional entry or town in their works to catch other publishers who plagiarized their works rather than doing their own research.
I know it’s probably just that I have a filthy mind, but my immediate interpretation of the second Amber in panel 2 was that that wasn’t Amber 3’s right hand, but someone else left hand, and that someone was moving in for a grab of them there bosoms.
I still maintain the hope that Becky will at some point bring her old tapes (smuggled out from Anderson’s, obviously) and wonder if a certain mouse boy Joyce never shut up about is awfully familiar…
Well, it’s nothing I haven’t had done to me. Though in my case the more impressive part was that she identified a couple of my friends with much greater online presences than I have, and stalked them in case I ever showed up.
I think cyberstalking is done to some degree in every relationship now. It’s just a sign of the times (like how 3/4 of every teen relationship has experimented with sexting at one point, despite the fact that it’s technically “child porn”). It’s just a matter of making sure that the person who does it isn’t creepy/abusive about it.
It can be something of a self-defense tactic as well: Does anything really creepy or dangerous come up. Conceptually, it’s not really any different than asking friends who know him better than you do about him.
At this point, probably. Or you’re very good at hiding yourself in your online interactions. But depending on where you look/hack in to, there’s plenty of stuff out there – personal emails on whatever server, property transactions, DMV records. I know I also have stuff with my name on it at the US Patent Office, and a metric ton of stuff behind corporate firewalls.
I’m just really hoping this Walky-and-Amber thing doesn’t lead to a Ross and Rachel-style fight over “WE WERE ON A BREAK” between Walky and Dorothy. Dorothy is so much more level-headed than Rachel.
I mean I think at one point I looked through my bfs old stuff on TV Tropes forum. I hope to GOD he hasn’t done the same for me recently. I was a total dweeb there.
I should nooot be awake right now But like. I just changed a medicine I’ve been taking since I was 17 thats helped me get to sleep and freakin withdrawl is a big ol bongo.
Also I just realized that sometimes I unintentionally read Sal’s lines in the voice of Applejack from MLP. I am amused and horrified by this realization.
Thirded. I think I mentioned once before that I used to read some other characters’ lines in other ponies’ voices, but it’s honestly been years since I’ve seen that show so I think it’s beginning to fade. Sal-as-Applejack though, that’s still persisted.
Sadly, I can’t remember anymore what voice my brain assigned to Joyce, but I do remember I have/had Rarity as Billie, Twilight as Dorothy, and Fluttershy as Dina (Dina-as-Fluttershy still being a relatively strong association in my head, along with the aforementioned Sal-as-Applejack).
Properly the internet has sections for each circle. There are things like pornography for the 2nd circle (lust), twitter for the 5th circle (wrath and sullenness), 4chan for the 7th circle (violence), and so on.
Congrats on taking the House, folks. You guys got me scared for a bit there: when I went to bed, fivethirtyeight had it at 5/9 chance down from an 7/9 chance a couple of hours before, but you pulled through in the end.
On a completely related note, if someone would be so kind as to do me a favour, please punch Pelosi in the face now and every time she says she’s going to try for bipartisanship. Really, just clock her.
I’m surprised they let a tax cap go through, what with McConnell claiming to be so concerned over the budget defi- AHAHAHAHAHAH. Damn it, almost made it to the end.
And I guess they’re putting in as much voter disenfrachisement as they can. 8/ double boo.
What really gets me is that we already HAVE an income tax cap. Most people aren’t even affected by it. But they see “tax” and immediately go “oh no, I don’t want to be taxed” because there’s absolutely no explanation on the ballot about that.
Given the blatant, flat-out liar mcliarface misleading wording on some of the other proposed amendments, I guess we should be “grateful” at least *some* of them were still voted down.
Well, they’re not affected by it NOW, but just you wait until they drop the “temporarily embarrassed” part from the “temporary embarrassed millionaires” status. That’s thinking ahead, that is. It’ll happen any day now. Aaaaaaany daaaayyyyy…
And I’m moving to New Mexico, where, as of about an hour ago, I’m going to be represented by a seat-flipping Democrat whose first name — Xochitl — is guaranteed to give the orange guy fits.
And the Republican whose seat she won lost his bid for the governorship. Apparently that purple state doesn’t need me to help turn it a little more blue. Not that I’m complaining.
(As a soon-to-be-former Californian who lives in a very blue area, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get used to having my vote matter. No, wait — I’m pretty sure I’ll get used to it.)
OTOH, though it’s somewhat subtler, they elected a Democratic civil rights crusader to the state Supreme Court and blocked a couple of GOP court packing amendments.
This should help break the ridiculous gerrymandering they’ve put in place.
In other news, Idaho finally voted for Medicaid to expand into their state! There’s still a few obstacles for it to overcome before the state gets this health funding, but it’s a start.
Michigan did pretty well– I mean, I would’ve liked a Democratic control of the state congress, but at least our governorship flipped blue. And we voted to legalize recreational marijuana. So. (We also voted to form a redistricting committee and extend voter rights in the state constitution.)
All that along with some other results, state-wide and local, has me feeling pretty okay about the result overall right now.
Politician are going to politic. Punching our duly elected representatives in the face for meaningless bipartisanship noises is probably not the best way forward.
There are actually reasons to talk the bipartisanship game. Watch what actually happens.
Besides it may all hit the fan even before Pelosi becomes Speaker. Sessions has resigned/been fired as Attorney General. His apparent replacement is an outspoken critic of the Mueller investigation. Mueller is no longer shielded by Sessions’ recusal and the Deputy AG Rosenstein won’t be in a position to do so.
We were already expecting more indictments or other action now that the election is over. Things may move very quickly. Mueller has to have known this was coming, but we don’t know what he has ready to cover it.
I occasionally get messages from people telling me they watched my entire youtube channel, which has existed for almost 10 years so that’s an impressive binge…fortunately I was never cast in some religious propaganda for kids so my internet history isn’t THAT embarrassing…
BTW, seems that the real Julius Caesar actually said “Tu quoque, Brute, fili mi!” (You too, Brutus, my son!).
Having encountered Shakespeare *much* later than Roman history, “et tu…” always sounds more French than Latin to me.
Me if I ever see Tony Hawk: Hey you’re Tony Hawk the famous skateboarder. That’s right I recognise you. Won’t be able to get any content out of this will you, you piece of shit

If it’s on the internet, it must be a life-destroying vortex of shame
Sounds legit.
Almost as legit as her checking it this morning and not a minute before.
Perfect picture.
Walky’s imdb biography includes such interesting trivia as “Number of McNuggets he can fit in his mouth” (12) and “Things he has pointed his weenus at” (ceiling crack, weird discoloration, itself).
I thought I could trust you, internet!!
Very well-executed brick joke.
But not his longest.
“That never happened, God rewrote history to be a b-word!”
A valuable life lesson.
All 5 year olds should know this by now.
You Don’t Have to Be A STAR, Baby…
To Be In MY SHOW…
Oh, honey, boy, I don’t need no superstar, ’cause I’ll accept you as you are…
*checks imdb to see if Willis is in anything crazy*
I just assume if it’s on the internet, Amber knows about it and probably knows who wrote it.
Is your gravatar a Soul Reaver reference?
Yes, it is my character avatar, drawn by a friend. It is inspired by a few things, most notably Raziel.
I miss Soul Reaver so much ;-;
Psalmsational servers? I hear Linux is where it’s at.
I’m kinda glad I was never in any stupid fundie TV shows when I was a kid. Or any shows that might result in me being listed on the Internet at all really.
As much as I find cyberstalking creepy, I also find embarrassed caught-out Amber adorable.
It’s public information.
Agreed. Embarrassed Amber is super huggable!
And that’s saying something because Normal Amber is already incredibly huggable.
I burst out laughing every time I see that punchline. Internet’s a bongo, Walky.
Oh, Linda, you really paid it forward setting that role up.
And Amber, steer carefully, it’s very easy to tread into creepy doing stuff like that. I mean, public information is public information and I get sometimes someone’s social media is super rad and you want to scroll (tumblr does that to me a lot) but …like, watch yourself maybe?
So does the page automatically change bongo to bongo or is that just a thing everyone knows to do?
Nvm
Both actually. It’s censored but we do it on purpose a lot for funsies.
I think if the filter ever went away there’d be a huge protest. Not because the comment section can’t handle a b-word here and there (if it’s not used as an attack), but because that filter’s almost a comment section mascot at this point.
I wrote bongo, but I used the real thing on patreon.
Which words get swapped into bongo? Give me a list, please.
Just the other b-word.
Bongo, bongo, bongo and bongo.
it’s a real bongo trying to figure out what’s being said….
IIRC, the only other word that currently gets filtered is the c-word. I know a three-letter acronym that begins with S and ends with W used to be filtered into “glistening phallus”, but not sure if that’s still in place – I know the filter on “For me, it was Tuesday” has been lifted.
Huh, when did that happen?
The c-word filter (I think it now gets changed to “conga”?), the glistening phallus filter (which may or may not have been lifted), or the “For me…” filter?
Can’t remember when the other two took place, but the latter took place at the beginning of Faz is Great, when Faz quoted that line upon showing up in Amber’s room.

People used to jokingly suspect her of being Amazi-Girl’s secret identity all the time (because Robin in the other universe actually believed that and it was a running gag there.
Dammit guys, the answer was “The most important day of your life”.
I still think the three-letter acronym should have been filtered to “decent human beings” or something like that.
I am now confused as to this three letter acronym.
Ess Jay Double Yew.
Just for those curious. It took me a while to figure out.
SJW? Interesting. Censor the ones who lead censorship. Fight fire with fire! Also, I just wanted an excuse to type the acronym to see what it gets turned into.
You… you do realize that that’s not a self-applied moniker, right? Changing it to different words did not annoy those you’d consider “””SJWs”””, it annoyed people who like calling other people that.
It was my favorite and I’m sad it’s gone. The world is a colder, less glistening place without it.
Bongo is still good though. I’ve been using it elsewhere. We need to make it catch on.
I am afraid that if we get bongo to catch on, Sir Willis will get annoyed and change it to something else.
I doubt it. The b-word itself doesn’t seem to upset Willis, and we’re allowed to use it on Patreon. It’s specifically blocked here because people abused it when Roz yelled at Joyce and it got really creepy.
Well, this is Sir Willis we are talking about. He would do it just for the lols.
The only such word I know of might make you twitch.
Would revealing it make one regarded as a snitch?
I’ve an itch
I want to know which
Fill my vocabulary without a hitch
Tell me, you bongo
nah, j/k I figured it out at this point already!
It starts with a B, and rhymes with wongo and itch.
Technically, it doesn’t rhyme with wongo, it alliterates with wongo.
Wait which word?
bongo
Fuck
Ass
Bastard
Shit
I am now curious as to the censor system
Ok so literally only one. Huh. Well then
well it was the only actually offensive word in your list so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There’s also conga
And bastard can be offensive
New best punchline.
Son, if you did something embarrassing you can bet your ass that there’s a record of it somewhere on the Internet.
They truly have a buetifull relationship
Walky can forgive stalking, but he wouldn’t forgive that his own mom made him appear in a christian fundamentalist show that indoctrinated people like Joyce.
I mean, he’s got plenty of reasons to dislike her already (although I don’t think he does), what’s one more?
I don’t think Walky actively dislikes anyone.
Gashface, but then, everyone decent hates Gashface.
For a second I read that as “Goshface” and thought you were talking about Fuckface the Lizard but were afraid to swear.
Pfft, no, I’ve even taken to calling my puppy Fuckface when he’s misbehaving. It makes me feel much closer to Malaya and my boyfriend hates it.
I am forever calling that lizard Goshface now because it is hilarious to me.
He did get genuinely, legitimately appalled at Mary when she started trying to blame him for Billie’s depression and then revealed her blackmailing ways. As far as tags show that was their only interaction, but the level of badness and Mary’s General Mary-ness against Walky’s disdain for even sincere religion say to me he would have actually disliked her on any prior meeting as well.
He also made comments about how Gashface got what he deserved, but I don’t really count hating Toedad or Gashface as anything but the bar all sympathetic characters in this strip meet.
He’s said that Ruth really pisses him off, but he was upset over Billie at the time.
I suspect he’s not fond of his roommate.
Walky’s dark past comes back to haunt him…
Hymmel the Humming Hymnal never happened.
I thought we were in agreement on that! Darn it!
Hey, Amber never agreed to anything!
Neither did whoever added the IMDB credits (unless it’s Joyce in which case I will CACKLE).
Aw c’mon, Joyce wouldn’t do tha- yeah okay she totally would. And I figure it was either her or some complete stranger (from the comic’s perspective at least), so…
Actually I guess it could have been Linda, making sure her precious boy was properly credited for that incredibly significant success. That would be… kind of not as funny.
Hymmel the Humming Hymnal might not be a real thing, but Psalty the Singing Songbook sure is and it is great in a terribly awful sort of way. Do yourself a favor and check it out on YouTube as you imagine young Master Willis watching it in his younger and more formative years.
A nightmare image of Psalty used to haunt his Tumblr background until Blowjob Cat took its place. (Pretty sure there was no in-between, anyway.)
Now it haunts my dreams.
I wonder if somehow someone could dummy up an entry in the IMDb listing for Psalty where Walky is listed as a bit player/extra? Sort of the same way “Who’s Who” and certain mapmakers used to insert a fictional entry or town in their works to catch other publishers who plagiarized their works rather than doing their own research.
Willis wrote Hymmel based on Psalty, iirc.
So glad I didn’t have to grow up with that kind of horror *shudders*
I imagine the list of all the different ways the Internet could betray you would be rather long.
That list would never end! We keep finding and developing new ways to betray each other via the internet! It’s madness, madness!
I know it’s probably just that I have a filthy mind, but my immediate interpretation of the second Amber in panel 2 was that that wasn’t Amber 3’s right hand, but someone else left hand, and that someone was moving in for a grab of them there bosoms.
Sooo when did she really read the feed? Or, in other words, since when is she interested in walky?
An interesting question, but knowing Amber it could’ve been last night.
If Amber puts a lot of emphasis on something, it usually is a lie. And she’s emphasising “this morning.”
I don’t honestly know when Amber read the feed though I’m guessing it was before they started texting. But I know when she was first interested in Walky. Panel two of http://www.dumbingofage.com/2016/comic/book-7/01-glower-vacuum/caughtcha/ .
This is my favorite strip between the two of them
HYMMEL!
THE SINGING SONGBOOK
I still maintain the hope that Becky will at some point bring her old tapes (smuggled out from Anderson’s, obviously) and wonder if a certain mouse boy Joyce never shut up about is awfully familiar…
Psalmsational
I love Amber’s apologetic expression. “Um…. this is a normal thing to do in a relationship… right?”
…and how she holds it for an extra beat with just a slightly wider grin. Great use of space by Willis having her overlap herself there.
Well, it’s nothing I haven’t had done to me. Though in my case the more impressive part was that she identified a couple of my friends with much greater online presences than I have, and stalked them in case I ever showed up.
I think cyberstalking is done to some degree in every relationship now. It’s just a sign of the times (like how 3/4 of every teen relationship has experimented with sexting at one point, despite the fact that it’s technically “child porn”). It’s just a matter of making sure that the person who does it isn’t creepy/abusive about it.
It can be something of a self-defense tactic as well: Does anything really creepy or dangerous come up. Conceptually, it’s not really any different than asking friends who know him better than you do about him.
Depends how far you take it of course.
Would it be creepy then if almost nothing showed up? As someone who doesn’t use social media I’m almost unknown to the internet.
At this point, probably. Or you’re very good at hiding yourself in your online interactions. But depending on where you look/hack in to, there’s plenty of stuff out there – personal emails on whatever server, property transactions, DMV records. I know I also have stuff with my name on it at the US Patent Office, and a metric ton of stuff behind corporate firewalls.
Not imo. I know a lot of people who just don’t social media that much and it’s not a big deal at least in my circles
Normal is overrated.
I’m just really hoping this Walky-and-Amber thing doesn’t lead to a Ross and Rachel-style fight over “WE WERE ON A BREAK” between Walky and Dorothy. Dorothy is so much more level-headed than Rachel.
They’re no longer on pause though? They’re like, actually broken up?
I mean I think at one point I looked through my bfs old stuff on TV Tropes forum. I hope to GOD he hasn’t done the same for me recently. I was a total dweeb there.
I should nooot be awake right now But like. I just changed a medicine I’ve been taking since I was 17 thats helped me get to sleep and freakin withdrawl is a big ol bongo.
Also I just realized that sometimes I unintentionally read Sal’s lines in the voice of Applejack from MLP. I am amused and horrified by this realization.
I also tend to read Sal’s lines in Applejack’s voice for some reason.
Oh goodness. I’m not alone.
Thirded. I think I mentioned once before that I used to read some other characters’ lines in other ponies’ voices, but it’s honestly been years since I’ve seen that show so I think it’s beginning to fade. Sal-as-Applejack though, that’s still persisted.
If you don’t mind, I’m curious as to who Joyce was?
Sadly, I can’t remember anymore what voice my brain assigned to Joyce, but I do remember I have/had Rarity as Billie, Twilight as Dorothy, and Fluttershy as Dina (Dina-as-Fluttershy still being a relatively strong association in my head, along with the aforementioned Sal-as-Applejack).
Yyyup.
Now I am picturing Sal singing Raise That Barn and it is hilarious.

Quick question: Is it possible to squeeze the entire Internet into the 9th circle of Hell?
Asking for a friend.
It’s already there.
“Why, this is Hell. Nor am I out of it.”
Christopher Marlowe reference FTW!
Properly the internet has sections for each circle. There are things like pornography for the 2nd circle (lust), twitter for the 5th circle (wrath and sullenness), 4chan for the 7th circle (violence), and so on.
That’s right ladies, I’m a celebrity!
Joyce owns the box set. Of this, I am certain.
She does. Or at least this episode.
I’m irritated that Hymmel didn’t get a tag. I’m not trawling through “Joyce+Walky+Dorothy” to find it.
Oh wait: Linda+Sal got me close and Hymmel is tagged, but as the full Hymmel the Humming Hymnal.
Oh my stars and garters! I did not know there was a storyline! Bad Abel! Bad! How could I deprive myself of
Ahhh, verdammt. I done messed it up. I mean this glorious moment.
Walky’s twitter is an endless cavalcade of butt jokes, isn’t it?
It would be, butt for that one tweet.
Congrats on taking the House, folks. You guys got me scared for a bit there: when I went to bed, fivethirtyeight had it at 5/9 chance down from an 7/9 chance a couple of hours before, but you pulled through in the end.

Well, they’re not affected by it NOW, but just you wait until they drop the “temporarily embarrassed” part from the “temporary embarrassed millionaires” status. That’s thinking ahead, that is. It’ll happen any day now. Aaaaaaany daaaayyyyy…
Ughhh God it did? Damn. Shit Feck.
Soon Colorado will be my state..and I’ll be less embarrassed hopefully
And I’m moving to New Mexico, where, as of about an hour ago, I’m going to be represented by a seat-flipping Democrat whose first name — Xochitl — is guaranteed to give the orange guy fits.
And the Republican whose seat she won lost his bid for the governorship. Apparently that purple state doesn’t need me to help turn it a little more blue. Not that I’m complaining.
(As a soon-to-be-former Californian who lives in a very blue area, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get used to having my vote matter. No, wait — I’m pretty sure I’ll get used to it.)
OTOH, though it’s somewhat subtler, they elected a Democratic civil rights crusader to the state Supreme Court and blocked a couple of GOP court packing amendments.
This should help break the ridiculous gerrymandering they’ve put in place.
In other news, Idaho finally voted for Medicaid to expand into their state! There’s still a few obstacles for it to overcome before the state gets this health funding, but it’s a start.
Congrats! \o/
Michigan did pretty well– I mean, I would’ve liked a Democratic control of the state congress, but at least our governorship flipped blue. And we voted to legalize recreational marijuana. So. (We also voted to form a redistricting committee and extend voter rights in the state constitution.)
All that along with some other results, state-wide and local, has me feeling pretty okay about the result overall right now.
Politician are going to politic. Punching our duly elected representatives in the face for meaningless bipartisanship noises is probably not the best way forward.
There are actually reasons to talk the bipartisanship game. Watch what actually happens.
Besides it may all hit the fan even before Pelosi becomes Speaker. Sessions has resigned/been fired as Attorney General. His apparent replacement is an outspoken critic of the Mueller investigation. Mueller is no longer shielded by Sessions’ recusal and the Deputy AG Rosenstein won’t be in a position to do so.
We were already expecting more indictments or other action now that the election is over. Things may move very quickly. Mueller has to have known this was coming, but we don’t know what he has ready to cover it.
And porn. And bacon. And cats.
Especially cats.
Oh Walky
I, too, remember this nightmare fuel:

I occasionally get messages from people telling me they watched my entire youtube channel, which has existed for almost 10 years so that’s an impressive binge…fortunately I was never cast in some religious propaganda for kids so my internet history isn’t THAT embarrassing…
I am surprised Walky got credit for that. I guess because he got a speaking line.
The irony being, of the two twins, I’m more inclined to think Sal would be the one with religious beliefs.
I don’t think the KID having religious beliefs was a criteria for whose parents sucked them into embarrassing child acting credits
I imagine his mother is atheist and where Walky got his lack of religious values. She only wanted the tiny bit of fame.
Willis has described the Walkerton house as ‘agnostic, of the apathetic variety’ before.
But lots of extras get credit in movies/tv shows. It wouldn’t surprise me Walky did.
I’m curious, why do you think Sal would be the religious one?
BTW, seems that the real Julius Caesar actually said “Tu quoque, Brute, fili mi!” (You too, Brutus, my son!).
Having encountered Shakespeare *much* later than Roman history, “et tu…” always sounds more French than Latin to me.
Also, from the context and way it was written in Latin, it sounds more like he was saying it as an ‘up your’s, kid’ rather than saying it sadly.
I’m constantly amused at how much I can relate to her.
