As a believer in an all-loving God, Becky would never ask him to “dang” anything.
That’s why she instead invokes the wrath of Josh Gad. He is a merciless lord.
To the contrary, he’s full of mercy because he never gives any of it out.
Gad darn it! Darn it like a sock!
(Also, Gad)
Reminds me of my characteristic curse in middle school. It would be something like: “Dang you, dang you to someplace distinctively unpleasant.”
Shit I hit report on accident…I meant to respond that I loved this comment very much and wish to use this curse a lot.
Heck, I imagine.
Dina’s first hangover, she must be in AGONY T_T
someone get this girl some water and OJ pronto!!
maybe they can have a nice brunch/lunch together if they can keep it down. idk how many other cultures have it, but i know korea specicifcally has a ‘hangover soup’ tho given the foodie culture korea hs i’m sure ppl would eat it on regular days too versus some rice porridge plp get when they’re sick/stomachache
Mexico has menudo. A primary ingredient is beef tripe (stomach).
I have to say, this is the cutest I’ve ever seen Dina look. Hangovers suit her.
Yay, more dina and becky cuteness.
Ah, lesbians finally! This comic was being way too straight for too long!
But there was Ethan & Asher, also
Well ethan/asher are having fun rn tho idk how much of a viable relationship it is in the long run even if they’re acting healthier than jen was, tho i guess it would be a fun surprised if theyended up the first couple in the series to get married 10 years from now XD
We had multiple strips with Joyce and Dorothy in them, it was bicurious at worst.
…and Joyce urging people to start a polycule.
Please. The last several strips were bi adjacent at best. The bi in question was pretty miserable too. Also that was a purely hetero polycule with the intention of one straight relationship being supplanted by another. If Joyce had any imagination she would’ve suggested Sarah and Lucy settle their differences and ditch Jacob.
This is getting really tiresome. We’ve had plenty of queer rep, including canonically bi characters who happen to be single or in opposite-gender relationships right now. Bi people don’t get downgraded to “bi-adjacent” for being with people of different genders unless you’re an asshole.
I think the point is that Jennifer (the bi in question) was just… there. She didn’t really participate in the story, she was adjacent to it. She’s not even dating Asher anymore so I don’t think that’s what Sirk meant.
I know this comic has plenty of queer rep. My “bi-adjacent” was a callback to a clever response from previous comment I made many strips ago in reference to Jennifer being bi and next to people and thus they were adjacent to a bisexual. (Bi-adjacent) Not because she was specifically dating someone of the opposite gender and thus didn’t count as bisexual or only slightly bi or whatever erasure subtext you may have read.
I get that maybe it’s easy to read comments in bad faith but I genuinely just try to have fun most times. I thought most would get the humor of complaining about queer rep in a comic that is supremely gay.
As I’ve often said in the past and is likely becoming a personal meme for me. I will endeavor to try harder to make these jokes land without upsetting someone. Apologies.
I’m coming in at the end of this, and appreciate your articulation and non reactivity here. I will say that I also didn’t get your initial comment was a joke, and was kinda put off by it (as a bi person, or just a person, who enjoys a variety of orientation reps in fiction).
But knowing it was a joke I’m a amused :). I think. “/s” or “jk” goes a long way to making sure text is ready properly.
Also the bi-adjacent thing is quite clever and I didn’t read your comment as bi-erasure at all.
YeaH a /j would had helped because it read as a joke to me at all.
Put me down as someone else who did not get it/read that as anything but sincere.
One day I’ll remember to use “/s” I forget to mid typing a comment and just assume something ridiculous or hyperbolic wouldn’t be read straight.
moar gay pls

Now if I wasn’t pretty sure they had class right now I’d be saying ‘fuck yeah, agreed’ but they do so. Once in a while!
i mean unless it’s a major test, hopefully missing one class isn’t the end of the world unless becky’s there on a scholarship or so buti ‘m sure there’s someone takingnotes
Becky’s on a scholarship set up by Robin. (Or Robin’s just bankrolling Becky’s education and calling it a scholarship.)
Robin’s unlikely to care if Becky skips class unless it’s her class though, so it’s probably fine.
As long as they don’t make a habit of it then it is fine to occasionally mias class because of a hangover.
What are you, a cop?
Do they? Or have they arranged a schedule like Dave Lister’s art college?
“I thought it’d be a skive, but I took one look at the timetable and checked out, man. I mean, they had lectures first thing in the afternoon! We’re talking half past twelve every day! Who’s together by then? You can still taste the toothpaste!”
…wait, now I’m thinking maybe I’ve forgotten that we know one of them is in the class all the others are on their way to.
Dina’s leader now.
she’s always been an Empress, silly ^^
Was she ever not?
Hanging out with a hangover.
I don’t exactly pin ’em as night owls, either.
Not yet, anyway.
I dunno, if anyone is a creature of the night, it’s the Empress of Evolution herself:

I’m most impressed that only one person ended vomiting when severe, of them had never alcohol before with the exception to communion.
either that or a few threw up in teh bathroom off screen
Several of them*
Joyce and Becky’s communion “wine” was certainly grape juice.
Welch’s, of course.
How Methodist
There were many people at the party to split the booze between, and it isn’t a sure and certain thing that you will chunder after your first go at drinks
…that CAN’T be confortable to sleep against the wall
well, maybe they can massage each other in the shower later but at least they had partially soft large plushie too tho they might need to spray it down if they can’t wash it lol
Sometimes when you are spending time in bed(or behind a dinosaur) with your partner things may not be perfectly comfortable, but neither of you want to stop laying together.
I used to share a twin sized bed with a girl whenever we spent time together. Was it always comfortable? Not at all. Was it worth it to spend extra cuddling time with her? Always.
I got so uncomfortable in a girl’s double, seemingly concrete, bed, and left to go home at 4:00 am. I walked to the Columbus Circle subway station and got mugged before I got down the steps. Stabbed 8 times. Nearly died. Should’ve died. Sometimes a little discomfort is the better option.
*that I left*
Dude, that’s some shit. You OK now?
Nah they died.
I’m sorry to hear that happened to you. I hope you have recovered since then, and are still healthy.
Also, I have narcolepsy meaning it is easier for me to fall asleep in uncomfortable positions. However my body complains the next day, so I try not to do so.
They’re nineteen, they can sleep in positions that would cause our spines to crumble into sand
true love is being hungover together 8D;
Is this the first time Becky said I love you to Dina?
I think she’s said it before maybe, but i know dina’s at least said it when she said she was willing to have sex or so
I feel like this gets asked every time they say “I love you” to each other.
Answer: Still no.
Yes. She’s never even expressed any attraction to Dina, either.
Dina takes a separate math session now from the main group, right?
yes, she’s frequently waiting outside the math building with Dorothy and Becky, waiting for group lunch. https://www.dumbingofage.com/hurghl/
it’s nice to know Becky and Dina aren’t being traumatized by the body snatcher this morning.
And this is why Dina is a way better match for Becky than Joyce was.
Finally, some characters who represent me!
as an auDHDer i really feel that too
this exactly why imma freelancer o-o
Re not being morning people… there are worse foundations for a relationship.
As a morning person, I have to ask: are there really other morning people? I don’t think I’ve never met one. I’m starting to think I’m a fluke.
how the heck do they sleep? NEXT to the raptor, on the floor?
they spoon on the dinosaur, Dina is the big spoon ^^
That raptor is disgusting
My back is hurting just watching this
theyre so cute…. becky is like :>
“Get the U-Haul.”
I gotta say, speaking as an art-and-theory-of-comics enthusiast, I *love* the fact that the “YAWN” sound effect is explicitly shown as being BEHIND the dinosaur.
Yes, it’s a wonderful presentation decision on the part of the artist.
I love that these two goofs have just been sleeping through all the drama.
“Imagine if we had to deal with heterosexual drama this early in the morning.”
Imagine if they had to deal with a hangover plus chronic back problems from sleeping on that dinosaur which I think is a giant beanbag. They are young so only the former is likely the only problem but the latter could be too.
I love these two.
I love them, but I still don’t like the idea of marriage.
Marriage in general, or between these two in particular?
As someone who has to be To work by 10 tomorrow, I’d like to just say, “UGH”
This is a major reason for me exploring careers outside of K-12 schools. Had to be at work by 7:30am the past two years, and at some points it’s been earlier.
I was approached by an employer who hired me and told me to show up at 5:00 am. I asked when the shift started. They said 7:30 am. I said, “See you at 7:20!”
So, what are the odds they had some Ninja Nookie last night that everyone else missed because Dina is just that stealthy?
