All he needed to do was nod his head while making affirmative sounding noises with his mouth close, then finish chewing/swallowing before talking to her for real.
I LOST about 25 pounds when I went to boarding school I had trouble adapting to the compulsory vegetarian they had there, if you wanted any meat, you have to sneak it into the school grounds.
@TheBenenator: This was at Lilydale Adventist Academy, you see, one of the beliefs that SDAs have is that it is best to live on a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet (vegetarian + eggs + dairy products).
While they do allow the consumption of ‘clean meat’ nromally, the lacto-ovo vegetarian diet was enforced on all the boarding students ie; NO MEAT ALLOWED!
@Tualha: Things like eggs and dairy products have B12 and we were allowed to consume those as part of a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet, so there was no problem in that respect.
My main problem was that I loved eating things like beef, chicken, white fish, lamb & it took me a few months before I was willing to try these strange meatless dishes with their nut-meat, gluten steaks, nutolene and other Sanitarium products.
@Azumango: No, a lacto-ovo vegetarian academy, they still exploit animals for their eggs and milk products.
@XMD: Nah, at best I can say that it opened up my dietary options somewhat as I used to live on a very bland meat-veg diet before I went there.
I’m still a fussy eater but now I experiment with new foods more. There was no way I would have discovered things like Indian cuisine or dishes like squid-ink pasta otherwise.
Heh, that’s nothin’. I’m known to eat everything from panfried clam strips or candy and chips to toasted ravioli or leftover Chinese food for breakfast. And, this started in high school for me, not college, though it’s been more frequent since starting college.
Yes, especially if it glows in the dark …
The Dew is freaky enough where I am but the stuff you people in the states drink tastes horrible and over-sweetened …. then I find out its packed solid with caffeine [which is bitter ]
Quick question to those who might know but WHY are so many soft drinks in the states sweetened with corn syrup? That stuff has a distinct taste all its own and its not that pleasant.
Corn syrup is ostensibly cheaper than sugar, and the corn lobby has a lot of leverage here.
Myself, I think that when there’s a drug to which fully 50% of American adults are clinically addicted, which harms sleep hygience and harms worker productivity, something should be done–but there won’t be.
Fun fact: The United states grows the majority of the planet’s corn supply. Of course it’s in everything. Sugar cane on the other hand has to be imported from warm tropical areas. Not cost
effective.
Hard to be sure, but I’m guessing Danny is well above average in the looks department.
He had an attractive girlfriend for quite some time, Billie (a former cheerleader used to guys adoring her) was willing to sex him up after one compliment, and in that other ‘verse Joyce basically fell for him immediately.
He’s also apparently the least creepy guy in her CS class. That’s gotta be a plus.
Depends. I think it works if you consider a “Year One” story to still be early enough in a character’s development to count as origin. It’s only been a week or so since the beginning of term, and her existence hasn’t been confirmed by the press yet, so I think we’re still safely in origin territory.
It’s not that he’s being rude, but those ARE cafeteria scrambled eggs… When Danny opened his mouth his body naturally assumed it must have been to expell the offending taste.
I assumed it was a breakfast sausage patty. I don’t know what exactly is in a black pudding, but I do know it sounds untrustworthy. Those things have killed more than a few unwitting D&D characters.
I honeymooned in Ireland. That black pudding is most definitely something invented by bed and breakfasts so that they can loot the luggage before submitting a police report about the unfortunate passing of their guests.
Snerk. Danny, I thought about it and decided to trust you when you said nothing happened. Because a relationship should be based on trust and not, e.g., sneaking into someone’s dorm room to check the tape recording, which I totally didn’t do.
If anyone is interested, spellcheck suggests that hen is saying “Molly map, mar milking moo me.” “Milking moo me” sort of makes sense, except that Danny isn’t a cow. Probably.
Ahhh…Landes Dining. So delicious. They have soda fountains, and juice fountains, and milk, and tea, and coffee. I’d wager he has chocolate milk and she has lemonade or sprite.

Where did Hollywood go so wrong? I thought movies were supposed to be an escape from reality, a chance to put your worries aside and not have to think about any underlying ideas or concepts. Well, not anymore.

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908.
"You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

Hawley dismisses Trump lining his pockets with his memecoin: "Listen, I think nobody believes that Donald Trump can be bought. I mean, what does Donald Trump need more money for?"
wilbur, savvy enough to know he's in a comic strip but still not a great actor, awkwardly lifts a muffin up into frame so that we, the audience, understand that he has a muffin right now, which is very important narratively, but he's not really selling it well as an organic, human action
confirming that the reason there's been no Galaxy Version female characters in Blokees until now is that they felt they needed to make Round Lady Thighs For Ladies

Ah…good timing.
Dude chew first. THEN speak.
Then she’ll be hit with gunks of chewed up food. He should probably swallow, then talk.
She waited for him to put that big delicious bite in his mouth to sit down, just to throw him off and ruin his enjoyment of it. YOU KNOW IT.
There’s a word for that. It’s called Sgiomlaireachd (Old Scottish) and it means “unwanted mealtime interruption”.
Because the English language just isn’t enough sometimes.
All he needed to do was nod his head while making affirmative sounding noises with his mouth close, then finish chewing/swallowing before talking to her for real.
That’s how I roll.
They’re drinking … gatorade and root beer for breakfast?
Chocolate milk and some kind of breakfast shake I’d wager.
Chances are equally good that it’s gatorade and root beer.
Because when you’re in college, why the fuck not?
+1
Exactly. Who’s gonna tell you otherwise, right?
and thus, you are ‘rewarded’ with the Freshman Fifteen.
I actually welcomed the Freshman 15. It meant that I stopped seeing my ribs when I looked at myself in the mirror.
I LOST about 25 pounds when I went to boarding school I had trouble adapting to the compulsory vegetarian they had there, if you wanted any meat, you have to sneak it into the school grounds.
…and where was this? (I’m a vegetarian)
You poor bastard.
@TheBenenator: This was at Lilydale Adventist Academy, you see, one of the beliefs that SDAs have is that it is best to live on a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet (vegetarian + eggs + dairy products).
While they do allow the consumption of ‘clean meat’ nromally, the lacto-ovo vegetarian diet was enforced on all the boarding students ie; NO MEAT ALLOWED!
…I trust everyone was supplied with B12? No one told me about B12 when I went vegetarian.
@Tualha: Things like eggs and dairy products have B12 and we were allowed to consume those as part of a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet, so there was no problem in that respect.
My main problem was that I loved eating things like beef, chicken, white fish, lamb & it took me a few months before I was willing to try these strange meatless dishes with their nut-meat, gluten steaks, nutolene and other Sanitarium products.
Wait, you went to VEGAN ACADEMY?!
It just makes her better than us.
@Azumango: No, a lacto-ovo vegetarian academy, they still exploit animals for their eggs and milk products.
@XMD: Nah, at best I can say that it opened up my dietary options somewhat as I used to live on a very bland meat-veg diet before I went there.
I’m still a fussy eater but now I experiment with new foods more. There was no way I would have discovered things like Indian cuisine or dishes like squid-ink pasta otherwise.
In college, I made Breakfast S’mores and Breakfast Taquitos on more than one occasion.
I wasn’t reading Shortpacked yet, but if I had been I can assure you Cadbury Cream Egg Cereal would have made the menu.
And that’s where my Freshman Fifteen came from.
Heh, that’s nothin’. I’m known to eat everything from panfried clam strips or candy and chips to toasted ravioli or leftover Chinese food for breakfast. And, this started in high school for me, not college, though it’s been more frequent since starting college.
Amber loves Mountain Dew.
A girl after my own heart!
It’s almost as good as Sierra Drops!
Who doesn’t like the Dew?
Communists, that’s who! You ever seen a commie drink Dew, son? They don’t, do they? They drink vodka, right?
and look what happened to them.
Confusing cause and effect there, I suspect. I doubt I could survive living like that without some kind of drug.
They were HAPPY! As long as they weren’t sober that is.
I don’t drink things that look like piss.
And taste like piss mixed with sugar.
Man, I really hope your piss don’t look like Mountain Dew. Go see a doctor!
Optimus prime approves this message.
Well, the real color isn’t that far off. Maybe it’s a little cloudy…
And no, my urine is mostly clear, because I drink water almost exclusively.
But thanks for worrying, I guess.
But you did say something about it tasting like urine. If you know that for a fact, then you’re freakier than I’m willing to be.
Trying not to judge…
You know, he may be an adventurer/survivalist.
Yes, especially if it glows in the dark …
The Dew is freaky enough where I am but the stuff you people in the states drink tastes horrible and over-sweetened …. then I find out its packed solid with caffeine [which is bitter ]

How come Leland hasn’t been mentioned yet in this thread?
Weren’t they saying something about lunch in the previous strip? I think it’s lunch, though heck if I know what they are supposed to be eating.
What does she see in him, anyway?
(I mean, I solely date nerds, too, but he’s *such* a nebbish.)
nebbish: an insignificant, pitiful person; a nonentity
?????
What part of that do you not agree with?
Hard to be sure, but I’m guessing Danny is well above average in the looks department.
He had an attractive girlfriend for quite some time, Billie (a former cheerleader used to guys adoring her) was willing to sex him up after one compliment, and in that other ‘verse Joyce basically fell for him immediately.
He’s also apparently the least creepy guy in her CS class. That’s gotta be a plus.
Danny is completely adorkable
All he needs now is a fez.
Because fezzes are cool.
Well, there is one that isn’t.
You’re think of FAZ not Fez, two very diferent things.
No, he just dislikes Morocco.
I thought he was referring to Fez from That 70s Show.
Scrambled eggs and sausage, I think.
Class act, that Danny.
Shmeezh mockingh moo mrr!
Quick, Danny! Throw an action figure at her!
SEAL THE DEAL!
Seal deal?
I suppose it’s better than choking on your food when you see someone you like. Of course if he did Amazi-girl would have to save him again.
She’d have to run and get the costume first. Can be seen acting heroic in her civilian guise!
And by the time she got back, he’d be dead.
Thus fulfilling the tragic loss prerequisite for her to become a real super hero.
Little late for an origin, isn’t it?
Depends. I think it works if you consider a “Year One” story to still be early enough in a character’s development to count as origin. It’s only been a week or so since the beginning of term, and her existence hasn’t been confirmed by the press yet, so I think we’re still safely in origin territory.
Well it’s not often that MALE love-interests end up Stuffed In The Fridge.
It’s also an interesting bit of turnaround to have the contents of the fridge be stuffed into the love interest.
Why I don’t spend more of my time reading the comments here I may never know. This is great stuff.
Oh Danny… oh so classy
It’s not that he’s being rude, but those ARE cafeteria scrambled eggs… When Danny opened his mouth his body naturally assumed it must have been to expell the offending taste.
what is he saying?
‘Holy crap, you’re talking to me.’
smooth move danny, real smooth
Almost as smooth as Walky.
Well, no one is as smooth as Walky. He’s Mr. Smooth.
He’s the same consistency as the chicken-like puree they pour into McNugget furnaces.
Soopa-smoov.
I can totally see Walky slurping down some conuggets (like cochicken but with Mcnuggets instead)
almost as smooth as mike’s cockblock earlier
I don’t buy it, Amber.
Erm… MAH MOH MUY UFF.
is she a miniature baked chicken for breakfast or am i just seein’ things?
No, she’s a girl. That thing on her plate though… looks like a leg quarter to me. Or maybe a boob quarter.
Danny’s plate: Hockey puck and cabbage leaf.
Amber’s plate: Large lobster claw and pile of cornflakes.
Really, those vague symbolic shapes could be almost anything.
I read the “hockey puck” as a big slice of black pudding, which surprised me- didn’t think that stuff existed in America.
I thought that stuff was only used in self defense and the Glaswegian martial art of Icky Thump.
Nice to know someone else here knows about The Goodies, gotta love that black pudding.
I assumed it was a breakfast sausage patty. I don’t know what exactly is in a black pudding, but I do know it sounds untrustworthy. Those things have killed more than a few unwitting D&D characters.
,” says Blog Marley. Nice.
I honeymooned in Ireland. That black pudding is most definitely something invented by bed and breakfasts so that they can loot the luggage before submitting a police report about the unfortunate passing of their guests.
*Blob. Because, the pudding is blobby. Definitely not bloggy. /sigh
Well, it *is* a college cafeteria. Vague shapes that could be almost anything–it’s like a photograph!
You wanna know what Danny’s thinking?
“Oh god, does she know what I was doing last night with those photos of her I found on the Internet?”
“And by that I mean making photo collages.”
Don’t you mean journalism?
Snerk. Danny, I thought about it and decided to trust you when you said nothing happened. Because a relationship should be based on trust and not, e.g., sneaking into someone’s dorm room to check the tape recording, which I totally didn’t do.
Danny, you’d better hit that.
She likes swallowing.
If anyone is interested, spellcheck suggests that hen is saying “Molly map, mar milking moo me.” “Milking moo me” sort of makes sense, except that Danny isn’t a cow. Probably.
*he
Obviously. Hen’s don’t moo.
What? Where did that apostrophe come from?
Oh God, they’re invading!
U malking moo mee?
U MALKING MOO MEE?
Men moo meh mell melse mare moo malkin’ mo?
Mee ’em me omly mon ‘ee. Moo m’fuck u fimk uu malking moo?
Moo malkin mack, moy!?!
Smooth, Danny. Really smooth.
Danny either has a sausage patty or some kind of fudge cookie on his plate, and honestly, both seem about equally likely.
From my memories of university cafeterias, he is probably better off if that is the hockey puck it appears to be.
I like to think it’s a Ring-Ding.
Awww…
Ahhh…Landes Dining. So delicious. They have soda fountains, and juice fountains, and milk, and tea, and coffee. I’d wager he has chocolate milk and she has lemonade or sprite.
