+3 And bane/holy would be overdoing it for a harpy I think, especialy since anywhere you could land a hit on one with a condom would probably count as a critical hit.
At first I thought Joe was asking if she was happy. And while I can see why she might be happy at the thought of Joe and Danny, I don’t think she knows either well enough to be shipping them.
I don’t really blame Billie for her actions, she has had a rough couple of weeks also I would think Danny is also a “ho” as well as he was just as willing to go along with this and he initiated the flirting.
Not really. They have a penchant for ending poorly no matter where you do it. Doing it on paper just means you get ripped and stained paper in additiion to your pissed off girlfriend and awkward times with the third friend.
In a weird way. I mean like the sexy time I think she gets. But I think she’s vaguely confused/dazed from that. Probably from thoughts of “Danny can get laid?”
Harpy -from the mythology: part woman part bird maybe part something else. And is aslo an old term for a woman who nags a man, a bit of a bongo. And that’s Harpo not Harpy Marx. On the other hand, as it’s Joe..yeah it probably means herpes…
That at least makes better sense. I was wondering what Joe would be doing in the Amazi-Girl costume out where someone might figure out his secret and all. Seemed kinda reckless to me.
Someone needs to tell Joe that keeping condoms in one’s wallet is actually a pretty bad idea. The constant heat and friction wears them thin, making them more susceptible to breaking.
And on further thought, what is the proper response to that situation? You’ve rounded third and are sliding home when you realize you don’t have proper coverage… and then it suddenly slides under the door. Especially considering they don’t know Joe is outside ANYONE could be walking past.
I don’t know about in general, but I’d be surprised if Joe hadn’t already briefed Danny on the emergency condoms located here, here, and here if the candy dish full of them is somehow not in reach at the critical moment.
Did that sock change colors, or is it just me? Also, looks like we might finally get some conflict around here, which is good… except I was shipping for Amber and Danny. It’ll be interesting to see where this goes.
I thought it was like a yellow-y orange-y type colour yesterday, but when I checked just now, it appears to be the same white with grey toes and heel that it is now. I think Willis is just fucking with us.
Poor Danny is going to suffer from severe whiplash as he transitions from “AAAAAAWWWWWWW YYYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!” and “Me gusta.” into “FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-” with alarming rapidity.
Make sure it’s rated G. I just had some that appear to have been revised to PG without my knowledge so it took me a couple days to figure out why they stopped working.
It’s interesting how I saw this and thought, “Oh no! This won’t be good for Danny and Amber’s almost-relationship!” While Danny having hot sex with a total stranger did not create such sentiments…
I don’t remember anything with Amber and Danny. And I’m also too lazy to go all the way back through the archives. Oh well. I’m sure the following strips will fill in the blanks.
They have a computer science class together that may as well be Computers for Dummies. She came over to his dorm room after class one day and met Dorothy, at which meeting everyone and their dog except me thought they looked identical. After Joe pointed out the physical similarities, Amber left, and Dorothy and Danny had a discussion about their relationship and how Dorothy will stay out of it from now on.
Considering a certain senator paid this college a visit one could not really blamed for thinking about pregnancy arcs – maybe Robin is to pregnancy what Hulk is to mayhem havoc.
Obligatory note – I hear that that’s not as secure a method as one might think. Apparently sometimes some sperms decide to jump the jun a little. And that’s putting aside the possibility of missing your cue.
Well, Danny wasn’t exactly expecting to get dumped by his long-time GF earlier this week (in-story time), it’s quite possible he actually has some prophylactics of his own.
An astonishing number of the comments for this strip seem to me like they’re misunderstanding the strip, several of them in the way you describe, so I’m pretty sure it’s not just you.
My dearest apologies, Joe. We JUST sold the last unit of brain bleach to an elderly woman that recently viewed a certain online video involving two young women and a cup.
Sadly, selfsame elderly woman pre-ordered the next two shipments. She said she’d need a LOT of bleach to get the image fully out of her mind. I simply can’t afford to move a larger shipment, so you’ll have to come back the middle of next month.
But they’re not in Billie’s room; does she strike you as the type to grab a handful of condoms before she goes to interview some nerd about a vigilante superheroine about whom she doesn’t really give a flip?
Considering that virtually all Joe thinks about is women and sex, yes. Ethan strikes me as the type to require some sort of shared interests beyond the physical.
Joe probably feels like he’s in the twilight zone right now with all the attention Danny is getting. At least he’s keeping good sense of humor about it.
There goes the theory that Joe is a good wingman. Never volunteer information about a bro, ‘Dunno I’m locked out and waiting for him to either get back or wake up. I’ll totally let him know you you stopped by.’ is the only acceptable response. Jesus Joe, get your head out of your ass.
I suspect that Joe also thinks that the fact Danny could get anyone to bang him at all could only be viewed as a mark in Danny’s favour. “Danny’s a sexy, sexy beast in high demand! I’m such a great friend for telling chicks so they’ll like him more!”
Danny “scored” without his help. Joe’s in shock, doesn’t know what he’s saying, and has gone on autopilot, coping with this warping of his worldview the only way he knows how. With sex, jokes, and/or jokes about sex.
WHOOPS
(Thanks, Amber!)
I believe that Danny’s line at this point should be a mix between “DAMN YOU, WILLIS!” and “AaaaaaaaOHGODOHGODFLAVIN!”
Or “This isn’t what it looks like, Amber. Honest.”
I vote akward silence.
Joe has noone to blame but himself. Even I paused after reading panel 2 and thought “Umm… Joe? Do you know how that sounds?”
Well then.
HA HA Bi-curious!
Ha Ha, Phil Ken Sebben!
Ha Ha, dangly parts!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuQ9fk2UeT4
Ha-HA! Body in a wood chipper!
Ha-HA! Super PAC.
I love how the Amber of this strip is the COMPLETE FUCKING OPPOSITE of the Amber in today’s Shortpacked.
We know this one doesn’t have a tummy toad for a start.
And DOA Robin didn’t mixed up this Amber’s birth control pill.
Yet…?
Boy, even when Danny catches a break, he can’t catch a break.
Secretly he imagines that scenario every day.
I hope you remember to bring your nickel, Amber.
ha ha!! I get it. to ride the…. yeah… o.o. Nice one.
In the last panel Joe is asking Amber if she’s Harpy? Herpie? That’s why he made sure to give her a condom?
Uh…. not sure if serious.
He’s calling a Harpy.
That condom better +3 condom with bane against monstrous humanoids or at least have a holy enchantment
+3 And bane/holy would be overdoing it for a harpy I think, especialy since anywhere you could land a hit on one with a condom would probably count as a critical hit.
A Harpy, which is a mythological creature which is half bird and half woman and an annoying enemy that usually haunts the Clock Tower in Castlevania.
Its also in the Pathfinder bestiary and all the D&D monster manuals from basic to 4th eddition
I’ll fight harpies all night long if it means I don’t have to deal with swarms of goodamn medusa heads.
Sometimes, I have nightmares about those goddamn medusa heads.
…Especially after they introduced the mother-defiling gold medusa heads.
I lost one my favorite characters to a Medusa head.
I nearly lost my sanity to a Medusa Head.
I nearly got a medusa to give head.
Could be worse – sanity is overrated.
Hey, I nearly stabbed someone with a spoon.
I used to have sanity too. Then I took a medusa head to the knee
That is bad, since it would hurt more.
Dammit. Supposed to be responding to Aizat.
And that’s two days in a row… :6
I once killed a man with a candlestick, just to watch him die.
You once killed a man with a Candlejack?
Wait… Oh, cra–
I was an adventurer like you once, until I took a medusa head to the knee.
I used to make Monty Python references, until I took an arrow to the NI!
Oh god that was the first AthK joke that I’ve laughed to since the first one. haha
At first I thought Joe was asking if she was happy. And while I can see why she might be happy at the thought of Joe and Danny, I don’t think she knows either well enough to be shipping them.
Dina is staring to rub off on Amber.
I didn’t know Dina and Amber had THAT sort of relationship.
I didn’t know Dina even had a wildside.
Didnt know Dina had a side at all.
Yeah, her backside. Damn, that’s a bad joke.
Poor Dina. Always the butt of the joke.
She does, she just keeps it against the wall, when she hides behind the door.
And I didn’t know she was rubbing it against Amber.
I do not approve. I still ship Billie/Dina. And Joyce/Dorothy. And Danny/Ethan. And Joe/everyfemalestudentoncampusandmaybeacoupleofthebi-curiousmales.
There a certain amount of evidence in this comic that he’s not interested in the curious males.
Doesn’t want to admit it, at least.
…I’ll be behind my door.
In your bunk.
With your penis.
Well, I’m sure Amber and Joe can find something to do while they wait for Danny…
Why assume the line is for Danny? Maybe Joe’s mad because he was trying not to get too… ready before going in.
Who else would be lining up for? Unless there is a third room-mate I’m not aware of.
Yeah, it’s Rick Rollins.
all joe can do is now is wait. all his other spare socks are in his room!
Thus begins the Sunday morning orgy.
That sounds like a title for an early 80’s porno flick.
or even worse, a movie that ISN’T one.
I love Joe, but, he had that one coming!
Hang on to that rubber, Amber, you’re gonna need it someday.
Why is he comparing her to Harpy Marx?
Who the fuck is Harpy Marx?
*honk* *honk*
Little known fact: Karl Marx’s sister was a dominatrix. Her profession so disgusted him it put him off capitalism altogether.
Wow, really? I never knew that Karl Marx had a sister.
*forehead smack*
I’m pretty sure Aizat is just continuing the joke.
Which of course created the rift between Karl and the other Marx brothers. Groucho never did forgive him.
Nooooooooooooo this puts very serious dampers on my AmberXDanny ship (but very serious pluses on my JoeXDanny ship
)
Wooo! Joe/Danny!
I was beggining to think I was alone in this (I should have known better)
No, you’re alone. Having a second stranger make a joke about your unrealistic, fake fantasy doesn’t make you in any way part of a group.
Ahh! Troll! Troll! Kill it with Fire!
But, seriously, this is a willis comic, if we don’t have insane ships, what do we have?
Sane ships?
Too bad most shippers don’t prefer sane ships.
I ship Amber and that condom.
Now THERE’S one that might actually happen. @_@
Drama?
Two ships passing in the night?
+1
i vote for billieXdannyXamberXjoe.
ships are roomy. they should have more than two people aboard.
Shipping Roomies?
Jamber! Jamber!! JAmber!!! Show her why she doesn’t have to wait . . .
O_O That awkward moment when the first girl you liked walks in on you banging the second girl you liked (or at least cheerleader you hit on)…
s: Amber > Billie.
I mean, I know who Billie matures into and all…but right now… in ghetto terms… “she kinda a ho.”
I don’t really blame Billie for her actions, she has had a rough couple of weeks also I would think Danny is also a “ho” as well as he was just as willing to go along with this and he initiated the flirting.
Solid argument! You’re correct. Let me add to my previous statement:
“He a ho, too! I mean…He a gigolo!”
And true, Billie has been through a lot not thanks to…DoA’s Ruth…^^;
Billie and Danny are both sluts then.
That’s what I’m saying!
You call Danny a slut, I call him a lucky bastard.
That too!
The two are not mutually exclusive.
One week.
Has it been one week? it seemed like two.
It’s been one. Yesterday Was Thursday lasted forever.
It’ll still be two days ’till they say they’re sorry.
Damn, beat me to it
In this universe, we don’t know who Billie matures into.
Billmeleon, and then eventually into Billizard.
She’s the kind of ‘ho Purdue needed about 4000 more of when I was there. Especially of the APA variety.
…the real question is, does Joe expect her to need a condom for?
*what DOES Joe expect her to need a condom for?
Whoops.
Obviously he thought she was coming to have sex with Danny. Hence the “Get in line” comment.
Well, a threesome is possible but that would lead to a really messy situation and I don’t mean the room.
Treesomes are good ideas on paper but have a penchant for ending poorly.
Not really. They have a penchant for ending poorly no matter where you do it. Doing it on paper just means you get ripped and stained paper in additiion to your pissed off girlfriend and awkward times with the third friend.
Not to mention the possibility of paper cuts to one’s naughty bits.
So the third friend…is a tree?
agreed. both amber AND joe need to get in there.
Seems obvious now that you’ve explained it. I must be tired.
Nothing good happens without a negative consequence for someone…
…and now I can’t get the picture of an emo Isaac Newton outta my head, proving your point to be true.
Grow up, Joe.
…and is it just me, or does it look like Amber’s (still) considering it?
Well she has to decide if she wants super sloppy thirds after Joe has had a go, ya know.
great. now i’m thinking about that and super sloppy double dare. brings a whole new meaning to “physical challenge”.
Oh gawd. I can’t tell if getting this reference makes me old or not (T.T)
why would it make you feel old? references to double dare should make you think of how awesome that show was.
I like Joe’s subtle smirk in the first panel.
It’s like he’s thinking, “Okay, good for him! But man, I really did have to go in there.”
one notices that Amber doesnt seem completely turned off by the idea
I’m not entirely sure she quite understands what’s going on.
In a weird way. I mean like the sexy time I think she gets. But I think she’s vaguely confused/dazed from that. Probably from thoughts of “Danny can get laid?”
Henry, I’m sure she gets what’s going on just fine, and the question of “is Joe in line or not” stems from her being from the internet, like us.
Of course not! She writes fanfiction. When she’s not playing WoW.
Harpy -from the mythology: part woman part bird maybe part something else. And is aslo an old term for a woman who nags a man, a bit of a bongo. And that’s Harpo not Harpy Marx. On the other hand, as it’s Joe..yeah it probably means herpes…
I’m not sure what your point is, but I’m very curious as to what you think you’re pointing out.
I am not so sure your point points the way you think it points.
So it’s this way to the egress, then?
I thought the Harpies were part vulture, not part egress?
Now I have the image in my mind of Amber as The Baroness, slung under a Cobra jet hang-glider over the Greek Isles…
Oh dear, I think I have a rise in my pants.
Well this has gone wrong very quickly
Possible threesome ho!
I dunno… Threesomes involving four people almost never work out.
That’s because that’s no longer a threesome. You need to fix the name, or people may get confused.
well thats terrible timing. so wait do you think he will ever get to do her in the amazing girl costume
in the near future? Doubtful best Danny can hope for is that Amber will continue to allow him to sit next to her in computer science class.
Hey, it wasn’t Danny’s fault. He didn’t expect to “commence docking”.
An amazing girl costume? Like the one Buffalo Bill W’s making in Silence of the Lambs? Why would Danny wear that while doing Amber?
That at least makes better sense. I was wondering what Joe would be doing in the Amazi-Girl costume out where someone might figure out his secret and all. Seemed kinda reckless to me.
Um… Amber, I don’t think Joe rolls that way.
Hey ya never know.
Someone needs to tell Joe that keeping condoms in one’s wallet is actually a pretty bad idea. The constant heat and friction wears them thin, making them more susceptible to breaking.
Joe probably never keeps any single one in there long enough for that to be much of an issue though…
I was thinking the same thing, Suilean. molochmachine does have a point, though.
if Joe was a good wing man he would have tossed that condom in to the room (just on the off chance there arnt any in the room)
Must’ve happened off panel, considering he had the foresight to carry a spare sock.
Nah. No matter how well intended it’s still bad form to throw stuff at your bro when he’s gettin’ some.
And on further thought, what is the proper response to that situation? You’ve rounded third and are sliding home when you realize you don’t have proper coverage… and then it suddenly slides under the door. Especially considering they don’t know Joe is outside ANYONE could be walking past.
I don’t know about in general, but I’d be surprised if Joe hadn’t already briefed Danny on the emergency condoms located here, here, and here if the candy dish full of them is somehow not in reach at the critical moment.
I suspect you’re 100% right about that. Right down to the candy dish full of them.
I love Joe’s blank little smile in the first panel there.
Wow, will Amber comit homicide in two seperate universes? This is going to be an intresting week. XD
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! That made my night! Thanks David!
Did that sock change colors, or is it just me? Also, looks like we might finally get some conflict around here, which is good… except I was shipping for Amber and Danny. It’ll be interesting to see where this goes.
I think the discrepancy is due to Joe’s shadow being cast over it.
I thought it was like a yellow-y orange-y type colour yesterday, but when I checked just now, it appears to be the same white with grey toes and heel that it is now. I think Willis is just fucking with us.
Either that, or I snort way too much glue.
I usually snort just the right amount of glue.
I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry.
Eh, I’ll do both, just to cover my bases.
Poor Danny is going to suffer from severe whiplash as he transitions from “AAAAAAWWWWWWW YYYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!” and “Me gusta.” into “FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-” with alarming rapidity.
Hahahahahaha! Now I can’t get the image of Danny shouting “¡me gusta!” out of my head!
At first I was going to try and edit it better, then I realized that would make it decidedly not a rage comic. Also, imagine and ye shall receive.
http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p295/Zeteni/DannyMeGusta-1.png
And grr… either I can’t seem to get my gravatar to work, or the cache needs to clear first? -_-
I’ve been tryin to get this thing to use my registered Gravitar since day 1. No go.
Make sure it’s rated G. I just had some that appear to have been revised to PG without my knowledge so it took me a couple days to figure out why they stopped working.
¡Me gusta!
It’s interesting how I saw this and thought, “Oh no! This won’t be good for Danny and Amber’s almost-relationship!” While Danny having hot sex with a total stranger did not create such sentiments…
Yeah, Joe walked right into that one.
but he immediately saw what was going on and slammed the door shut.
Wow… my memory sucks.
I don’t remember anything with Amber and Danny. And I’m also too lazy to go all the way back through the archives. Oh well. I’m sure the following strips will fill in the blanks.
They have a computer science class together that may as well be Computers for Dummies. She came over to his dorm room after class one day and met Dorothy, at which meeting everyone and their dog except me thought they looked identical. After Joe pointed out the physical similarities, Amber left, and Dorothy and Danny had a discussion about their relationship and how Dorothy will stay out of it from now on.
Hope that clears it up for you.
Billy… Probably did not have a condom on her. And Danny probably didn’t have any either. So unless he knew where Joe kept his stash…
Also yes please Joe and Danny
So expect a possible pregnancy storyline?
If only there were other means of birth control!
What, like the rhythm method?
But the rhythm method is somewhat unreliable.
So are my attempts at humor.
Darn, forgot about other methods.
Considering a certain senator paid this college a visit one could not really blamed for thinking about pregnancy arcs – maybe Robin is to pregnancy what Hulk is to mayhem havoc.
Verdammich, now I forgot to delete the word ‘mayhem’ out of my comment.
But mayhem havoc might be the best kind of havoc!
Don’t let mayhem ruin your comment. That’s Allstate’s stand.
Yeah, she’s sure left a trail of pregnant people behind her in Shortpacked!.
I’m picturing them strewn in a ragged line behind her as she walks, their bellies swelling…
I’m not sure if that’s scary or hilarious.
Scarlarious.
I don’t need a condom, I’ll just pull out!
Obligatory note – I hear that that’s not as secure a method as one might think. Apparently sometimes some sperms decide to jump the jun a little. And that’s putting aside the possibility of missing your cue.
Okay, I’m done being a downer now.
No, Joe obviously has condoms so there’s no chance he’ll get Danny pregnant.
Well, Danny wasn’t exactly expecting to get dumped by his long-time GF earlier this week (in-story time), it’s quite possible he actually has some prophylactics of his own.
Ugh. Me Rex grammar good.
Who taughted you how to spoke?
roz dumped a ton of them into billie’s room on the second or third day. i’m guessing she had plenty unless sal snatched them all.
Didn’t think that one through, did you, Joe?
It’s just occurred to me that, in what I think may actually be dramatic irony, Amber is the reason Billie was in Danny’s room in the first place.
(Yes, yes, Amazi-Girl’s True Identity Meme. You’re very funny. Can we move on now?)
No. Dumbing of Age! memes never die.
Amber is either very short or Joe is very tall.
Joe is very tall.
And long, if we believe him.
They are both true.
Do you have any set heights for your characters?
They all have set heights. Whadda ya think this is, EGS?
so if amber wants to use a peephole, she has to stand on a phone book or two?
I bet she plays a dwarf.
Whoa, deja vu!
I was wrong. This was the best laugh I’ve had all week. Two for two today, Mr. Willis.
It seems to me like the last line “you harpy” could be directed at everyone asking why Joe wouldn’t watch…
Is it just me or does Amber really have some really hopeful expression in the last panel?
That expression says “puzzled” to me. So I think it’s just you. ;p
An astonishing number of the comments for this strip seem to me like they’re misunderstanding the strip, several of them in the way you describe, so I’m pretty sure it’s not just you.
My dearest apologies, Joe. We JUST sold the last unit of brain bleach to an elderly woman that recently viewed a certain online video involving two young women and a cup.
Avatar + comment = WIN!
Perhaps if you came by next week, we’ll have some more in stock.
Sadly, selfsame elderly woman pre-ordered the next two shipments. She said she’d need a LOT of bleach to get the image fully out of her mind. I simply can’t afford to move a larger shipment, so you’ll have to come back the middle of next month.
This begs the question, is Danny using a condom with Billie? It didn’t really seem like they stopped for that.
Billie has a whole bunch of them, from when Roz threw them into her room. Remember?
But they’re not in Billie’s room; does she strike you as the type to grab a handful of condoms before she goes to interview some nerd about a vigilante superheroine about whom she doesn’t really give a flip?
No, but she does seem to be the type to keep a condom or two on her at all times, just in case.
And lets not kid ourselves here. This is Joe’s room as well as Danny’s. You really think he’s gonna be lacking condoms?
True facts. That room probably has more condoms than the pharmacy down the street.
Actually at this point yes.
Joe looks so pleased. In panel 2.
Oh come on Joe, it’s a natural part of college to experiment.
Yea, but why bother Danny when he could just find Ethan?
Ethan has standards?
Do you really think Joe wouldn’t meet Ethan’s standards?
Considering that virtually all Joe thinks about is women and sex, yes. Ethan strikes me as the type to require some sort of shared interests beyond the physical.
Okay, that gravatar never seemed quite so creepy until it was mine.
And NOW there goes my DannyxAmber ship… T.T
Dang, yours too?
Joe: the ultimate wingman.
Lol!
Thank you Amber, you almost made me laugh and I’m on a conference call with my DM.
Your dungeon master shouldn’t hear you laugh?
Not without permission… SLAVE! (cracks whip)
(And shouldn’t it be dungeon mistress?)
At least Joe didn’t try to offer Amber a two-for-one special.
“Come and knock on our door…”
Joe probably feels like he’s in the twilight zone right now with all the attention Danny is getting. At least he’s keeping good sense of humor about it.
There goes the theory that Joe is a good wingman. Never volunteer information about a bro, ‘Dunno I’m locked out and waiting for him to either get back or wake up. I’ll totally let him know you you stopped by.’ is the only acceptable response. Jesus Joe, get your head out of your ass.
Stinson Out
Joe doesn’t believe in the hiding of that most beautiful of human connections: the Joeing.
I suspect that Joe also thinks that the fact Danny could get anyone to bang him at all could only be viewed as a mark in Danny’s favour. “Danny’s a sexy, sexy beast in high demand! I’m such a great friend for telling chicks so they’ll like him more!”
Danny “scored” without his help. Joe’s in shock, doesn’t know what he’s saying, and has gone on autopilot, coping with this warping of his worldview the only way he knows how. With sex, jokes, and/or jokes about sex.
Last panel: bit worried that my mind went somewhere far kinkier before pulling back to the actual meaning. Damn you, Allan Moore!
What I found amusing was that she took the condom and got in line.
DoAverse Amber hasn’t shown that she takes much initiative.
Joe imagined it. He can’t unimagine it.
Joe is just a little annoyed that Danny looks to be getting significantly more play than him at the current moment.
Joe: “your are learning the ways of the ladiesman quickly Daniel-san”
Joe, you are a scholar and a true friend.
A Bro and a Wingman.
Ho Yay.
I wonder if this is the moment she decided to pack condoms in her utility belt.
