It’s g
It’s giggity get gone giggity time. Don’t know why my phone didn’t load the rest of my co
Your phone knew there was only one chance to beat Ana.
LoL not even intending that. I just wanted to make a giggity comment before someone else did.
Honest if you’d left off the parts complaining about being cut off I’d have assumed it was intentional.
Even Walky sees that lol
Walky is actually very perceptive with these things. He figured out Ethan was gay all on his own.
He has big brain
Walky is a love sleuth
Morning: they’re still staring at each other
Wally is still eating pizza
Ah, so it’s a threesome.
You’re forgetting the pizza? Walky’s one true love?
Definitely twelvesome, and I’m just counting the pizza.
*HUGGLES* @ Ana Chronistic. Are you feeling okay?
Why do you think something’s wrong just because I happened to be in the back of a car driving through no cell coverage
How do you drive from the back of the car?
Remote control? The trick involves clearing your cache.
Steering wheel extensions.
It’s an SPV
At least they let you out of the trunk.
The question is, will Amber be going home tonight?
Things could get ugly if she runs into Blaine and Ross on the way home.
My worry as well.
Hang on, didn’t Mike drive her to this party?? Hopefully she was only planning to walk with Dina…
Maybe we’ll luck out and she’ll at least get caught WITH Mike? I’m pretty sure Blaine would LOVE to get his hands on Mike as well, considering their history, so maybe having both of them would distract him just enough for them to do something to fight back/get away?…
Okay, why do I keep thinking Mike *drove* to the party? o.O
Mike, Amber, and Dina all came together to the party. Presumably, they did in fact walk, since Becky’s apartment is fairly close to campus and the only one I know of with an actual motor vehicle is Sal and her bike.
So yeah, that leaves us with a potentially super vulnerable Amber and Mike if they leave together (which they hopefully will), but at least Dina won’t be there, since Toedad would definitely recognize her and flip. (Although she handled him pretty fiercely last time, it might actually be a good thing to have her along.)
I don’t believe freshman are allowed to have motor vehicles on campus.
That said, if anyone’s second least likely to give a shit about that rule, it’s Mike.
Eh, third. Carla’s got to be in the top 2.
Fourth, or are we forgetting that our lord and savior Fuckface is illegal?
That doesn’t stop Sal, either. (Unless the rule only applies to cars?)
She’s least likely to give a fuck, yeah.
Yep, they had better hope AmaziGirl takes charge because Amber won’t hesitate to perform acts of excessive violence on them. As Side One of Tubular Bells plays in the background while I compose this, perfect soundtrack for the scene.
Part of me is hoping Willis forgets they exist and we never have to see those cartoon villains again
Definitely something to worry about. Amber doesn’t need the psychological trauma of beating those two into a pulp.
Seriously, of all the people to worry about being attacked by those two, Amber is way down at the bottom of the list.
Yeah I’m not too worried about her physical safety (although firearms definitely complicate things) – I’m primarily concerned about the mental/emotional trauma. Also, I’m *slightly* worried that the trauma that’s already been coming to a head will show its face mid-fight, causing her to freeze up in the middle of kicking ass. I think it’s unlikely, but still possible.
Amber’s an introvert – she’s probably recharge her mental batteries on the walk back to her apartment. It’s the PARTY that exhausts her.
Once she recharges, tho, it may be time for AG to take wing…
*plays Simon & Garfunkle’s “Homeward Bound” on the hacked Muzak*
That song would be for Walky.
As for Dina/Becky, may I suggest Diana Ross’ “Touch Me in the Morning”?
That’s a break-up song!
“Take me home tonight…”
Ugh, wrong choice, never mind…
Ever hear CHER’s “Take Me Home”?
I’m imagining Cher singing “Take me home country roads”. And now so are you.
Y’all might get your slip shine after all.
I hope so.
As much as I enjoy Ethan’s tongue to the left of the comments section every day, I’m ready for something new.
If anything nsfw happens, I’m sure it’ll come up. Possibly via pin up if it’s not long enough for a comic, but hey. New is new.
I have a hard time imagining the first NSFW experience for Becky would be too short for a whole comic. It’s possible Dina might speed things up a bit with her matter-of-fact nature, but I suspect even then, there will still be a bit of flailing and floundering on Becky’s part that will draw it out a bit.
…Crossing my fingers this is the case, at least. That Slipshine isn’t the cheapest investment I’ve made recently, and I think I went for the 4 month deal and it’s running out soon… D: Hoping to get a little more BANG for my buck!
Becky and Dina Have Hat-Free Premarital Hanky-Panky and Share Fun Facts About Dinosaurs
Will dina be a sexual tyrannosaurus in bed?
And it will be called “You Can’t Leave Your Hat On”.
+1 Internet.
@JBento: Your avatar = Dina when Becky tells her “You Can’t Leave Your Hat On”
Becky and Dina Decide to Perform a Contextually Sexual Touching After All
Meanwwhile, Joyce is performing an edgy self hating moment.
In other part of the city, Blaine and Toedad are performing the worst heist in human history.
Without Dina’s hat.
In many places
Hey? Can Joyce have hate sex with her self right now?
Its what is you do with the one you hate, right?
Joyce Performs A Mastur-hate
YOU WIN. ALL HAIL.
So he should team up with Jamie?
How did this end up here, it was supposed to be a response to Lys, waaaay up the page.
But since I am here anyway. So Joyce is going to furiously rub her tummy?
Amber’s face in panel four makes me feel like I’m watching a small child cry, and I feel that’s both a testament to willis’ art style and the fact that I care about a given ship to a degree that is not reasonably healthy
Eyebrows waggle until they come loose from their moorings!
Just like the peacock sign outside a French nightclub.
Looks like DOA is going all Dragonball Z. The next 50 strips will just be images of Becky & Dina smiling at each other (fortunately without the patented Dragonball “grimace and growl at each other as if extremely constipated” effects).
I can’t wait for Dumbing of Age Xenoverse to come out on the PS6
Mike’s the only teacher worth pursuing once you get the jetpack from Joyce.
Sure, if you’re using raw stats and numbers as the main consideration for technique quality. I prefer the more mechanically-unusual skills, myself. For instance, if you take Carla’s skate-shove skill from the demo and combine it with the “Nothing more can hurt me” D-Soul, you can effectively dash nonstop without any cooldown, and the I-frames last long enough that you’ll hardly ever take damage. True, you can’t attack or use items while you’re doing it, but if you wear Ruth’s overalls outfit, your Stamina and Ki will recharge automatically, so it’s a great stall tactic if you’re low on bars.
*claps*
Wait, don’t Ruth’s overalls only work if you’re drunk?
Ah, you’ve got Billie’s flask equipped, don’tcha?
The flask is tempting, but its only real effect is to randomly make you stumble. It’s actually her glasses you want.
Becky might not like what Joyce said or her new disillusioned attitude but uhhh…she getting laid tonight ain’t she. The ends justify the means!…In this one specific situation where the ends are Becky getting laid!
Becky isnt against intimacy. She just thought Joyce was being rude.
Now, time for a slipshine that I would pay to read.
What I saw is Becky arbitrarily WAS against sexy times because “I still want to cling to this rule from my past”. Joyce snarled out “aren’t those rules kind of dumb?” in a grumpy way. Becky didn’t care for the tone but maybe she’ll agree with the words under the grumpiness.
You are forgetting it was Joyce that put that on Becky,
and repeatedly acted as the guardian of her purity.
Dina has sensory issues, until she doesnt. and they have been in balance.
Not really. I mean, yeah Joyce referenced it, but she didn’t make it up out of the blue. It’s part of their shared upbringing. Becky’s never given any sign that she’s okay with it before and plenty that she’s worried about it.
Walky’s being nice and supportive, which is always nice. Amber’s taking off alone with the dads on the loose, which is worrying. Dina and Becky are about to get handsy, which is wishful thinking on my part.
Last panel foreshadows Bad Events, or I’m a ham sandwich.
That’s not a prediction, that’s a spoiler.
Well, I suppose nobody likes spoiled ham.
I hope nothing bad happens to Amber. Also, if the party gets uncomfortable because of moanings and dinosaur roars, then Joyce will regret having told Becky to get wild.
Nah, those particular sounds are for after the party.
Rarr!
The chessboard is shifting!
Yes, I too exchange an evil glare with my partner when we’re about to have sex
Excellent! We should form a club!
I’m interested in this club you mention.
Do-
Do some people not do that?
I believe the word you’re looking for is ‘leer’, and it’s not that unusual.
SHhhhh, we’re normalizing the evil hunger glare of lust. See, we’re making a club and everything! DON’T RUIN THIS FOR ME, OKAY
The sexual tension is so palpable that Walky grew sclera in order to give sideye.
It’s a latent superpower in Walkertons.
Not just Walkertons – Becky grew sclera as well.
The best responsibilities to take on are the ones that don’t actually need to be done.
True. And how very on-brand of Walky to be a master of this high-level technique!
“I’ll stay here, just in case one of the two girls givin’ each other the “bone me” eyes decides not to stick around. In the meantime, I may as well enjoy this legally-qualified free gay pizza.”
I mean, them’s some strong bedroom eyes.
watching walky stuff his face makes me wonder
Does this count as free gay Pizza?
The party is being held for the host’s gay girlfriend and their mutual grouchy friend. I’d say it’s at least 50% gay, and since pizza is a zero-sum foodstuff, that makes it gay pizza. Since it’s generally considered rude to charge party guests for pizza, I’m gonna make a judgment call and consider it free, as well. Add both of those modifiers, and we should be able to officially and objectively qualify this as free gay pizza.
Except that as far as I recall, Dina is not gay but “unconcerned.” Becky, however, is indeed gay, and she’s the host, so, it can still be gay pizza if you want.
I think unconcerned is gay if we choose gay to mean queer as in anything not 100% straight
It might also be unconcerned pizza. I guess pizza doesn’t give a damn about sexual orientation!
In which case, if we do NOT consider “unconcerned” to be gay, the pizza is, at MOST, 25% gay.
So, the pizza is 25-50% gay?
Free, gay, racist, Roman Catholic — who cares? So long as the pizza has pepperoni on it, it’s good.
Oh my god, that reminds me – is there sausage on the pizza? Is it touching? If so, we can canonically and empirically settle this essential debate, once and for all.
For, as the great Willis himself has declared, in determining the gayness of pizza, we must consider the sausage’s proximity to be… vital. B)
Crafty Walky!
Gotta agree with Walky on this one. Those eyes Becky and Dina are giving each other make it pretty clear what they’re thinking.
“May”
*queues any song named Stay the Night on the hacked Muzak while Becky’s fish-eating grin keeps on coming*
“Becky’s fish-eating grin”
Oh my.
…. so, wait, did Becky like Dina’s advice or not?
*like JOYCE’s advice GRRR.
I think she liked the implied thumbs-up, despite the surrounding cynical grumpiness.
She seemed to like the ultimate ‘go for it’ despite clearly being annoyed that Joyce wasn’t acting as the Angel on her shoulder reminding her of the bible and what it stands for and its messages and its principles. But it is kind of an unfair expectation to have for Joyce to keep being that person or for her to just get over being angry and distrustful or for her to just be happy and optimistic for Becky when she’s going through a rough transistion personally where she’ll have to decide if she is able to still hold onto her faith or if this has just been too much and has broken and ruined it for her.
Amber will be right back, she needs to retrieve her costu-, er her 3DS games.
Amber leaves the party, and Amazagirl walks out the door.
There is no transition. Amber is the one walking out, but by the time the doorway is cleared, Amazi-Girl is the one leaving, in full costume.
Just like the ’66 Batpoles.
You remember those too?
Do you also remember at least one episode where Batman and Robin rode the batpoles UP into the mansion (via a sort of rocket-pad at the bottom) and the process reversed?
That happened 3 times, but I can’t tell you the episode names after 50-some years. I think they just wanted to re-use that expensive shot to spread the cost out a bit.
This is a lovely birthday-present; my favourite ship in this comic are giving each other bedroom eyes. I’m 30 now! I hope it will be a good decade.
Happy birthday. I remember when I turned 30 for the first time. You’re gonna love it, kiddo.
In other news, the re-roaring twenties are almost upon us. It will be an astounding decade. Fasten your seatbelts.
Happy birthday!
Let’s do it!
I wanna be the best
Like no one ever was (ever was, ever was)
To seduce them is my real test
To touch them (many places) is my cause!
Okay, so this is the point where Amber goes into danger and is possibly attacked by Blaine and Ross.
The good news is, she’s tougher than both of them, easily. The bad news is, she’s sleepy. And we’ve all seen the first 20 minutes of Spiderverse enough times to know what that can lead to.
Ross: OK, so what’s the plan.
Blaine: Our prime objective is to get into fistfights with teenage girls
Ross: Sounds great. Given both of our splendid track reckord in that department I can only see good things coming from that. I’m sure God is on our side.
Blaine: Hail Jesus, amen, communion wafers.
The bad news is, Blaine is a sneaky bastard. Amber may never see it coming.
He’s not remotely sneaky. The best stealth we’ve seen from him is that time he laid down in the back of Yuri’s car like a bashful teenager.
I mean, he DID manage to get Danny to trust him for his own nerfarious ends.
I’m sure that is very hard.
Mm.
The good news is there is only one Danny for him to pull that on, so he can’t pull the same trick again. …Right??
Nah, Blaine convinced Ross to delay their attack for another day.
Lots of good TV in the motel
*puts on “Can you feel the love tonight” from Lion King*
Animated film character version, Elton John radio version, Broadway version, or live action film version?
Danny Devito karaoke cover.
There is no live action Lion King movie, unless you’re counting a bootleg of the stage play.
Interesting possibility. VERY interesting. Will Walky be right or not?
Walky: Bow-chicka-BOW-WOW
It’s just you and me tonight, baby
I’m gon’ take my time with you
Caress every part of you with my tongue
Taste your every flavor
You’re mine tonight, honey
I’m gonna eat you up
*Walky takes another bite of his pizza*
Mmm, mmm mmm!
hmmm is Walky just being oblivious about amber or is he intentionally ignoring her signals?
I think Amber is signalling that she needs alone time, and he’s picking up on that just fine.
If sexy signals are coming from anywhere, they’re being drowned out by the Becky/Dina megawatt broadcast.
Hrm, meant as response to KOT
pretty sure her face and tone in panel 4 imply disappointment. And I assumed her “walk Dina home” thing was mostly an excuse to hang out with Walky more.
I thought that was a “thank God, bed is calling me” face.
Just a thing I’ve noticed over time.
Those of us on the ASD spectrum tend not to enjoy being touched by others randomly – it feels, for lack of a better term, too intimate. However, when someone does manage to overcome that inhibition, we also tend to be the biggest horndogs on the planet.
I’m not sure Becky knows what she’s letting herself in for here…
To be fair, Becky has been so sexually repressed that Ruth would probably say that she might snap and lick a billion pussies.
I’m 100% sure Becky doesn’t kow what she’s letting herself in for.
I’m more and more sure she is willing to find out.
There have been some indications of what she might be in for…

Of course, other important questions remain unanswered

OMG THAT IS FANTASTIC
Thank you so much for posting this, I had forgotten it. Now I am extra super duper hoping for Slipshine!!! <3
OMG YES!
The sides of Amber’s hair are now as wide as her shoulders. She is rapidly achieving Kaepernick dimensions.
I can’t provide a link, but my daughter just posted a tweet that I thought should be shared with the crew, so I’ll type it out;
Shanney From The Block
A lady in the store tried convincing my
daughter to buy a doll because dinosaurs are
for boys. So my five year old roared at her.
I’m not even embarrassed!
She shouldn’t be! Good for her daughter.
Hell yes. Bad ass kiddo, bad ass mama. Pass it on! <3
Hah! Those are the times when I wished I was an elderly philianthropist standing in the line, so I could bend down towards the little girl and ask her with loud voice if she would perhaps be interested in owning the biggest, meanest dinosaur in the store and then buy it for her.
although I must confess… it would be amusing to watch Dina try to parse that statement.
