To be fair, Who didn’t say they was old, just that Who had a lawn and a cane.
I was first given a cane at 25. The Dr’s didn’t want me to fall so they gave it to me with the direction to only use it if I had to. Since I didn’t have to, I didn’t use it. But because the Dr gave it to me, my staff sergeant said I had to keep it with me. Thus I was given *more* shit to carry when I got injured during basic training. On the other hand it should have saved me from digging out my medical note for every person who asked why my injury buddy also wasn’t marching. Except that each of those people /then/ wanted to know why I wasn’t *using* said cane. Finally I gave up and *faked* using the cane until I could convince the Dr to take it away.
P.S. No, I have never finished reading Catch-22. I started reading it during a military leadership course and I could not get over that people thought it was a parody.
Catch-22 is NOT a parody or satire. Fiction maybe, but if anything it’s best described as a tragedy.
250 words? That’s optimistic. With pay through your phone apps and a sign you can completely eliminate transactional delivery interactions all together.
Speaking as a delivery guy that delivers to Read Hall on a frequent basis, you really can’t. We can’t get up to the dorm rooms, so customers must be called down to collect, meaning there would be at the least be a phone conversation, possibly texts depending on the driver, but a phone conversation is best for all parties.
“Keep the change” is 3 words. If I divide that 250 by 3, I get a bit more than 83 pizza deliveries in a span of 3 semesters. Assuming 16-week semesters, that’s 48 weeks, or about 2 pizzas a week.
Considering our track record with parents around here, it’s probably best not to invoke them.
To paraphrase ASoIaF, Every time a new DoA parent is introduced, Willis tosses a coin in the air and the world holds its breath to see how it will land.
I seem to remember Sarah mentioning that having divorced parents, she had to deal with two waves of parental concern after the kidnapping, which she hated.
Also, it’s only a coin toss if that coin is heavily weighted to one side. It’s really more like a d6 but only a 6 is an outright good parent.
Why not then use 2 d10? Or roll once on d20 (19-20 both good, 18 one good*, 17 other good*, 11-16 neutral, 2-10 bad, 1 Ross/Blaine)**
* Moms, dads or equivalent figures. Substitution, doublings etc don’t need permission, approval or judgement.
** Sadly I suspect the odds of Ross/Blaine are low in this chart compared to peoples lived realities. Philip Larken put it best, “They fuck you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do.”
No, she’s definitely friends with Dina, and probably Dorothy as well. She also has relationships with a bunch of other people like Becky or Billie, even if they aren’t necessarily friendships.
Sarah’s only come a long way because Joyce dragged her that far.
Come to think of it, isn’t Dana (her former roommate) the only reason she has any history with Raidah and her clique? Would Sarah be as seen as Bloodrose if she didn’t get pulled into roomie drama? Will I ask a fourth question? Who’s the bigger natural introvert, Sarah or Amber?
Also her hair is so extra-pretty post-skip. I’m sure I’ve complimented it already. Is it intended to represent short dreads, or a twist-out, or what is this hairstyle?
To give a little more explanation, black people, especially black women, often face discrimination for wearing their natural hair. Discrimination based on hair texture can affect self esteem, job prospects, and more. Here are a number of examples from actual women, including one who was told she looks like Medusa: https://www.byrdie.com/natural-hair-stories
Damn, racism really goes deep, huh? Even for the tiniest details. It’s like people get objectified and broken down into individual parts to make fun of or hate, so every time you ask a racist to shut up about even one thing, it’s seen as nitpicking. “Yesterday you said I can’t make fun of your skin, and now I can’t joke about your hair? There’s no pleasing people, these days!”
Sorry if this isn’t very articulate or I’ve also been insensitive. I’m still learning.
Can confirm: I’m white-passing Jewish, and I only ever get positive comments on my natural dark curls, that they’re beautiful, cool, and otherwise desirable. Although it’s the same texture that some Black women have, nobody has ever told me that my natural curls look unkempt, dirty, or unprofessional — not once — whereas Black women with similar hair have to hear this regularly.
So, I can be a control group: dark fuzzy curls around a lightskinned face = “beautiful”, but dark fuzzy curls around a darkskinned face = “bad”. This is distinction is clearly racist and sucky. Let’s not truck with any sentiment against natural hair on Black people.
*(Non-Jewish men do sometimes call me and my curls “exotic”, which I find confusing, as I’m an American and Canadian, in America and Canada. Doesn’t hold a candle to “unprofessional” or “ugly”, though.)
Agree! Sarah’s fantastic (if a committed introvert) & I love her new hair. I’m guessing that these are locs she was growing under her scarf last semester. But it could just be a twist-out. I suppose time will tell, unless we get a statement from Willis himself.
A roommate that respects her boundaries and supports her unquestioningly. I like to feel that Joyce is Sarah’s reward for dealing with the stress of her last roommate.
Recently I heard that when a hermit crab finds a new shell, it goes and investigates it, and the new shell is just a lil too big, they’ll hang out there for a while to see if other crabs come. If so, the hermit crabs all investigate too, and line themselves up in order of size, so that they can all trade upwards at the same time, and everyone gets a new shell at once.
I haven’t verified this but I hope it is true.
“These people have a lot of classes together, considering they’re at a state university with probably hundreds of sections for the general studies classes everyone has to take.”
“No, it’s just that, for dramatic purposes, the ones they have together are the only ones that get depicted in the story. If the comic were to show the classes they don’t share, it would be quite boring. And would require the introduction of a lot of new characters as random classmates who would only appear in those classes and wouldn’t affect the progression of the narrative, making it a lot of work for the creator for not much dramatic payoff.”
I dunno.
My friends and I went to great efforts to try to take electives and general ed classes together whenever possible.
We couldn’t share major classes because none of us shared majors.
But yeah, I remember the semester where we stalked the beginning of open registration so we could all take an intro level astronomy class we dubbed “stars are pretty”.
Plus, if they have the ability to choose which section they join*, it’s reasonable to assume that the folks who are already friends (or at least tolerable acquaintances, in Sarah’s case) would decide to be in the same section. Or even choose some of their courses (especially electives) based on what their friends are taking – I’ve done that a few times.
*I remembered while typing this comment that Lucy mentioned switching her math class section to be with the others, so I guess that’s an option at least some of the time. I think the main obstacle would be the sections filling up too fast in popular courses
I assume Joyce is only in this class at all because her friends are.
Also worth noting that throughout the entire first semester I think we only saw 4 classes – Gender studies, the Math class that a bunch of them shared, Amber and Danny’s comp sci class and whatever it was that Sarah and Jacob were in together. All of the dozens of other classes they collectively take may just have one from our cast enrolled.
We never planned it or anything, but somehow my freshman roommate and I ended up having one class together every semester that we were in college. And we were entirely different majors.
What class is Sarah taking with the Freshmen? Is she taking the Intro to Politics/Civics class? Is that a requirement for pre-law or is she taking it as an elective for some reason?
Pre-law isn’t actually a major, afaik, but a lot of people spread their electives and some 100 level classes that fit major requirements across the first two years.
I love how Sarah is all defensive here as if she feels she owes Joyce an explanation for some reason! At some point, Sarah has actually made friends and even got a surrogate sister figure. I’m sure that she has no idea how this happened!
Joyce’s smile in panel 3 is a wonderfully fake and yet mischievous thing! It tell you a lot about how close she and Sarah are in that it communicates enough to start a conversation!
“That thing you’re doing? NOT COMFORTABLE”
What I was doing was thinking how lucky Dorothy was to be sitting between Joyce and Becky. So, yeah, not comfortable.
Joyce is the healthiest relationship Sarah has…She’s probably also the only relationship Sarah has.
I’ll have you know that Sarah has exchanged over 250 words with the pizza delivery guy! And she’s only been at school for a year and a half!
I feel like pizza is kind of a luxury that Sarah wouldn’t bother with too often.
When I was last in school in the far off year of 2009 (shakes lawn, get off my cane, etc), a large single topping from Gumby’s was only $5.
I worked nights after all the dining halls were closed, so that was a godsend.
It’s cute that you think that makes you old. *went to college in the ’90s*
*grabs cane, kicks Doctor_Who out of his rocking chair*
To be fair, Who didn’t say they was old, just that Who had a lawn and a cane.
I was first given a cane at 25. The Dr’s didn’t want me to fall so they gave it to me with the direction to only use it if I had to. Since I didn’t have to, I didn’t use it. But because the Dr gave it to me, my staff sergeant said I had to keep it with me. Thus I was given *more* shit to carry when I got injured during basic training.

Catch-22 is NOT a parody or satire. Fiction maybe, but if anything it’s best described as a tragedy.
Then again, we did see her eat pizza even on the first day of the comic.
https://www.dumbingofage.com/2010/comic/book-1/01-move-in-day/pizza/
250 words? That’s optimistic. With pay through your phone apps and a sign you can completely eliminate transactional delivery interactions all together.
One time she got in an argument with the delivery person for exactly 250 words, and one time she said, “Thanks,” bringing our total to over 250 words.
Speaking as a delivery guy that delivers to Read Hall on a frequent basis, you really can’t. We can’t get up to the dorm rooms, so customers must be called down to collect, meaning there would be at the least be a phone conversation, possibly texts depending on the driver, but a phone conversation is best for all parties.
“Keep the change” is 3 words. If I divide that 250 by 3, I get a bit more than 83 pizza deliveries in a span of 3 semesters. Assuming 16-week semesters, that’s 48 weeks, or about 2 pizzas a week.
I mean she has a family, I assume
We do not mention them. They might show up.
Considering our track record with parents around here, it’s probably best not to invoke them.
To paraphrase ASoIaF, Every time a new DoA parent is introduced, Willis tosses a coin in the air and the world holds its breath to see how it will land.
I seem to remember Sarah mentioning that having divorced parents, she had to deal with two waves of parental concern after the kidnapping, which she hated.
Also, it’s only a coin toss if that coin is heavily weighted to one side. It’s really more like a d6 but only a 6 is an outright good parent.
More like a d20 with 1 and 20 being the good parent. Two rolls per student.
Why not then use 2 d10? Or roll once on d20 (19-20 both good, 18 one good*, 17 other good*, 11-16 neutral, 2-10 bad, 1 Ross/Blaine)**
* Moms, dads or equivalent figures. Substitution, doublings etc don’t need permission, approval or judgement.
** Sadly I suspect the odds of Ross/Blaine are low in this chart compared to peoples lived realities. Philip Larken put it best, “They fuck you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do.”
Except maybe her grandmother, who (probably) gave her Other Jacob.
Heads, it’s a bad parent, tails, it’s a bad parent, somehow landing on it’s edge, the parent may or may not reach the heights of average?
Only if it lands on edge, and even then how good is determined by how far and for how long it rolls for…
I mean I’m not saying it’s a nice family necessarily, just that it is a family and that she has relationships with them
No, she’s definitely friends with Dina, and probably Dorothy as well. She also has relationships with a bunch of other people like Becky or Billie, even if they aren’t necessarily friendships.
Sarah has really come a long way, frankly.
She has a relationship with Raidah. Mutual loathing is a type of relationship.
Sarah’s only come a long way because Joyce dragged her that far.
Come to think of it, isn’t Dana (her former roommate) the only reason she has any history with Raidah and her clique? Would Sarah be as seen as Bloodrose if she didn’t get pulled into roomie drama? Will I ask a fourth question? Who’s the bigger natural introvert, Sarah or Amber?
Hey, its the answer to people wondering if Sarah would take political science courses.
O O
\__________/
This was supposed to be a representati9n of how huge Joyce’s smile got there.
Not shown: Becky off to the left glaring daggers because Dorothy and Sarah got the designated Best Friend seats next to Joyce.
And here I was gonna say that between Sarah and Dorothy is her happy place.
It is for Joyce, which is why Becky is being super passive aggressive
God, I love Sarah.
Also her hair is so extra-pretty post-skip. I’m sure I’ve complimented it already. Is it intended to represent short dreads, or a twist-out, or what is this hairstyle?
Tentacles at rest?
Dude, not cool

These two are so cute and their friendship is a main reason why I can’t stop reading it.
Joyce let Sarah have her space for lunch, and now it’s time to encroach again.
A roommate that respects her boundaries and supports her unquestioningly. I like to feel that Joyce is Sarah’s reward for dealing with the stress of her last roommate.
A crabby hermit, not to be confused with a hermit crab. Although I suspect Sarah might actually like to have a shell.
Recently I heard that when a hermit crab finds a new shell, it goes and investigates it, and the new shell is just a lil too big, they’ll hang out there for a while to see if other crabs come. If so, the hermit crabs all investigate too, and line themselves up in order of size, so that they can all trade upwards at the same time, and everyone gets a new shell at once.
I haven’t verified this but I hope it is true.
Wikipedia attests to the “vacancy chain” phenomenon, and links to a public journal article: https://academic.oup.com/beheco/article/21/3/639/220022
Aww, hermit crabs do clothing exchanges!!
Don’t tell Sarah, she might decide being a hermit crab is ‘too social’ for her.
yaay, the world is better for verified hermit crab clothing swaps, thank you

Who is having this conversation?
Kellum and Kellum
Logical.
I dunno.

There was, I think, one strip in Ruth’s English class.
We never planned it or anything, but somehow my freshman roommate and I ended up having one class together every semester that we were in college. And we were entirely different majors.
Joyce says C: and that also makes me say C:!
C: = Joyce grin
C:! = Joyce grin with pompadour wig
What an unironically great mental image.
What class is Sarah taking with the Freshmen? Is she taking the Intro to Politics/Civics class? Is that a requirement for pre-law or is she taking it as an elective for some reason?
Pre-law isn’t actually a major, afaik, but a lot of people spread their electives and some 100 level classes that fit major requirements across the first two years.
Sarah’s someone who I often wish we got a little more time with, so, I am all for this.
That panel of all the students sitting down and/or getting comfortable gave me life.
I love Sarah.
Sarah, just because Joyce is quiet for two panels doesn’t mean she is passive aggressive.
OK, it probably does.
Sarah’s hair makes her look like a grouchy Medusa
The resemblance is complete.
Dang. Now I wanna filk that —
Grouchy Medusa,
Standing all alone-
You might have some friends
If they weren’t turned to stone…
I love how Sarah is all defensive here as if she feels she owes Joyce an explanation for some reason! At some point, Sarah has actually made friends and even got a surrogate sister figure. I’m sure that she has no idea how this happened!
Joyce’s smile in panel 3 is a wonderfully fake and yet mischievous thing! It tell you a lot about how close she and Sarah are in that it communicates enough to start a conversation!
Sometimes you pick your friends, sometimes your friends pick you.
oh, she knows when. it was after Joyce got roofied. She cuddled Joyce to make sure she was okay in bed and called her little sister.
This is the first time Sarah and Joyce have had a class together, isn’t it? I’m looking forward to more of this.
Yep! It’s going to be ~amazing~!
I fear that during this semester Sarah will literally evolve into a hermit crab
finally, the carcinisation representation we’ve all been waiting for
If I remember some pop biology videos I’ve watched over the years, that is a statistically likely outcome.
Ghostbuster reference, alt-text?
Nice!
Sarah is so relatable.
You know, when it’s convenient for me.
More like: “When I think you being comfortable is in your own best interests!”
