In all seriousness though, I don’t expect their relationship to stand the test of time. It was just nice to see Dorothy and Walky openly acknowledge that they are happy together.
It’s only all girls if he chops it up into tiny little pieces and lovingly deposits one piece in each girl. Otherwise, once he loses his penis in some girl, that girl has it until he finds it again.
My guess is that her brain just broke over the pre-maritial hanky-panky; or that she is in shock because a bigger dweeb than her has found a romantic interest before she did.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Mike placed a bet after witnessing Walky and Dorothy making-out the night before. It would have placed him in a strong position to win Joe’s money, albeit with knowledge of the truth in his favor.
Now I’m no heterophope, in fact some of my friends are straights, not my good friends mind you but I do wave to them and say hello, I think that counts. But heterosexuality is just plain wrong, the thought of a man and woman together like that sickens me and is therefore not something anyone should do.
If I had a god I would tell you to pray to him that he might heal you.
(On the very off chance someone thinks I’m serious by this point I say… Really?)
What’s even worse is that they’re asking for the right to raise those babies now. How’s a boy to become properly masculine with only one strong male presence in the house. And what about the straight influence? They could get turned hetero!
Do you realize what an impact the heteros have made in the fields of sports? Just because you’re a knuckle dragging THEATER LOVER, you think people can’t love who they want to love. FOR SHAME!
Aaaand then Leslie turns it all around by going, “Yes, but that’s not relevent to the class and you’re taking time away from the lesson.” And Mike continues whistling on the way back to his dorm.
I applaud Leslie’s patience, if one of my students actually pull this in class I would probably say: “This has nothing to do with the executive branch, please sit down and please don’t speak for remaining duration of this class period.” Then I would give the class a pop quiz or a three page essay that was due next class.
please, people. Silver. The term is Silver. Not crystal. Not mithril, Krystaal, wildberry Silver, or heaven forbid any sort of chromatic nonsense. Just. Silver. G24Lyfe.
I would just require each of them to write an essay on how this pertains to the matter discussed in class, due next class and comprising about a quarter of their entire grade.
Then again, Leslie is fairly cool, given that Dorothy feels comfortable calling her “Leslie” in yesterday’s strip.

So Dorothy like announced to the class that like she made out with the McNuggets guy. This pertains to the class duisscussion which was about the Muppets and frog sex. So Dorothy is Ms. Piggy and McNuggets is Kermit the Frog. So this means because frogs have no gentiles So they cannot have sex which makes sense why they made out. I am like Gonzo except better looking and not short and blue.
In the Muppets movie Gonzo wanted to get with Miss Piggy but she didn’t like him, and like Gonzo I would have totally made out with Miss Piggy I mean Dorothy but I am okay Dorothy making out McNuggets because I can get a lot of chicks. Like there was this chick that came out my room who I thought my roommate was banging, but he wasn’t(lame) and she was like an eight, she also implied that she would like to bang me latter which I am super cool with. Also Dorothy is my roommate’s ex-girlfriend so does that make him gonzo and me Stafford or Waldorf, But wait Danny and Dorothy broke up like a week ago so I am not cool with this, cause bros’ before hos’. Actually Danny Like’s this girl who kind of looks like Dorothy its kind of creepy, but he blew it with her twice. Also he talks in his sleep about amazi-girl. I don’t know who that is but she probably like a ten.
So also the guy who punched me in the face a lot on my date with Joyce which ended poorly also and I geuss he represents the people who operated the puppets on the Muppet show. Also that woman who act all smart are not always lesbians and shouldn’t be confined to like gender roles. So in conclusion you should not bet on who is a lesbian because you will lose money the end.
Suffice to say I am not satisfied with my prior comment, the joke was poorly executed and therefore not funny. So I am going to give list of reasons why I failed:
1.) the comment box is very small, and sometimes its difficult to keep track of what I wrote.
2.) I didn’t try very hard.
3.) What I mean when I say “I didn’t try very hard”, is that I sort of tried then gave up half way. However since I committed myself to this task just dropping the entire project would have resulted in me wasting ten minutes of my life.
4.) Since there was nothing a stake other then being ridiculed on the internet, there was not very much motivating me by the end.
5.) I have never been particularly good with grammar and syntax or spelling. So when I do write an essay or article it usually goes through three rounds of revisions before I actually present it. I didn’t have the patience to actually go through this process for a comment.
6.) I probably put more time into writing this comment then I did writing the essay comment, and that saddens me.
Depands on the assignment. If the assignment was to compose a 5 page paper of gender studies of local contemporary issues from one’s personal perspective then yes Joe would get an F. But if it was just an 1 page assignment then he would probably get a respectable “C”.
As Joe and myself are both Jewish, neither he nor I would refer to to a religious group nor any religious group as a frog (I can’t speak for Joe but I. Which what I tried to do and I failed). No the reason for the word gentiles appearing was my failure to check spell check. I refer you to As Joe and myself are both Jewish, neither he nor I would refer to to a religious group nor any religious group as a frog (I can’t speak for Joe but I. Which what I tried to do and I failed). No the reason for the word gentiles appearing was my failure to check spell check. I refer you to section three of my apology.
Also before one asks no my comparison of Joe to Gonzo, was not a play at any Jewish stereotype. the root of that comparison can be found in the first Muppet movie, the Muppet show and the Muppet Babies.
spell-checkers I know of wouldn’t have spotted the mistake in using the word gentiles instead of genitals unless they have some truly amazing context subroutines programmed into them.
Looking back at the strip with Mike lounging in the doorway while Joyce was ‘inquiring’ about Walky and was he straight-think Mike just found a way to inform her in his typical Mikeness. Mike has always ‘seemed’ to like Joyce..well like is too strong…tolerate maybe? I think Mike pulled a quadruple here. 1-embarass Dorothy 2-embarass Walky 3-blow both of Joe’s bets 4-inform Joyce that Walky is being eyed by another girl. Why would he do that, He’s Mike, He’s set things in motion, now he’ll watch.
Most of that makes sense to me. And it will actually be five when Billie finds out that Walky didn’t need her help to win over Dorothy at all. Would Mike honestly let her believe otherwise?
Though I’m not sure that Joyce really has any feelings for Walky in this comic (as of right now).
I’m not sure one way or the other, but I will make random points that seem to support the fact.
1) Joyce spends a lot of time with Walky.
2) Joyce had a mad face when asking Walky about the girl in his doodle.
3) Joyce is vehement about Dorothy not being interested in Walky.
4) Joyce’s expression, when she learns Dorothy kissed Walky, seems to be not just one of shock, but also dismay.
I was thinking Troy would be Walky- but I still can’t figure out Shirley. And Billie and Britta feels right to me. Besides that, I approve of your choices.
Joe’s gaydar seems to be rather off, doesn’t it? That’s a surprise; you’d think he’d developed a really good one after being so promiscuous.
Or as I call it, “Joemiscuous.”
Sorry. Ethan is looking for a gay Jewish geek. If Joe is Jewish, and we already know he’s a geek (right? I can’t keep my verses straight right now), then maybe he’ll wind up not being the ladies man we’re all expecting (himself included) and instead end up with Ethan. Or not. Or maybe I’m just a year late to this line of thinking.
Joe is going to Joe Ethan? Right in the Joe-hole?
Odd, I presumed that Mike was going to Joe Ethan.
Then again, if Joe is Joeing Ethan, and Mike waltzes in an Joes Ethan, then it would be a perfectly Mike thing to do in order to ruin Joe and Ethan’s relationship, and maybe give Joe another reason to hate Mike. Meanwhile, Ethan would feel conflicted and guilty.
And Mike would then sleep with both of their mothers at once.
Nah, Mike already did ‘im in Sp!. I think Willis is trying to avoid repeating himself. I guess if Mike and Ethan started dating, that would be suitably different.
Wait this seems a little odd. When I shove my tongue down some dude’s throat just outside his dorm room not realizing that his roommate is staring the entire time, I don’t then feel like I need to hide it or owe anyone an explanation. If I’m not talking about it the next day, it’s not because I am ashamed of it or the dude. It’s because I’m private.
Yeah, but it’s kinda different because the roommate doesn’t usually try and bring it up in a really insulting manner in the middle of your classes, and then by pushing away the topic you aren’t simultaneously agreeing with insults about the dude you kissed.
You know, this is comic world. Things are different here. There are Mikes here.
Totally expecting this to backfire hard when Joyce’s repressed rage bursts out… Oh good lord, I would LOVE if she let loose the beast all over Mike’s face for being ‘the bearer of bad news’. And he did mess with the date with Joe as well, so even if it wasn’t necessarily his fault, he’s been the face of failure for her.
Yay! Dorothy was mature enough!
Go realistic happenings!

…Hi.
Ha ha, I don’t think I’d have the patience to be in Leslie’s position right now. “I don’t CARE if you smooched someone, sit down and take notes on my lecture!”
I may be late to notice… but I like the new banner! Hey Mr. W – What’s up with QC Jeph and that link to here? Been that way since… the cruise? Is it a new nickname we should be using??
I wonder who Joe bet on Walky’s sexuality. I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if it was Mike, and this was all just a ridiculously asshole way to win $5. Which would buy him a lot of moms.

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

I won the pool!(sic):p
Don’t forget to add the right amount of chlorine to it.
Or if your looking to cut costs bromine is cheaper.
Ohhh that would be a good way to kill those bros of mine!
But add to much and it will totally destroy your Jeans.
And safer.
Welcome to our Ool. There is no “p” in it. Keep it that way.
I seen signs like that around, you also reminded me of a sign that said: The only thing worse than a pOOL is a stOOL.
Stool in a pool is even worse.
A stool in the pool is just NOT COOL.
Uhg the worst is diving into a ppols thats cool! I always do it though, and even time I feel like a fool.
Ugh, your comment is such a drool.
Aww you make feel like a tool…
C-C-C-Combo Breaker!
Drat, I can’t think of a rhyme, it’s been too long since I was out of school.
…or was it?
C-C-C-Co__o _______l
You guys are hurting my skull.
Bool!
Don’t worry, it’s just a Baby Ruth.
What about a pool in some stool?
I pity the pool!
I made a sign for my apartment that read, “Welcome to my Living Room. Notice there’s no P in it…” , etc.
Seriously? OOOOOOOOL!
Dang! I had a Benjamin against walky.
No matter who loses, Mike wins.
wait… was this his plan??
Maybe, the point is, someone other than Mike loses as a result of Mike, he therefore wins… I think.
Or maybe his plan simply didn’t work.
Maybe his plan was actually to trauma bond them.
Or maybe he just still wants to damage joe more.
A damn good moment. Excellent.
And Willis? Thank you. This comic just made my day.
And now, thanks to your comment, he will have to destroy this relationship, just to see you screaming “DAMN YOU WILLIS!”
He probably will, just out of sheer spite!
In all seriousness though, I don’t expect their relationship to stand the test of time. It was just nice to see Dorothy and Walky openly acknowledge that they are happy together.
Joyce: “Full disclosure: PRE-MARITAL HANKY-PANKY!!!!!!!”
Thank you Jen, tank you.
+500 Internets to Jen
Walky: Bucking the Willis Comic trend by being straight.
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?
I KNEW IT!
You may want to check out @shortpacked on Twitter. The post labelled gailsimone leads to an interesting read.
Poor Joe. He keeps this losing streak up and he might have to cut back on dating.
Nah, he needs to start dating more to break the losing streak.
Are you saying he should bet against obvious lesbians being lesbians, then proceed to convert him with his sheer manliness?
You sir are a chauvinistic, self righteous, GENIUS!
Don’t worry Joe, you can still lose you penis in some girl.
Is it losing if you still know where it is?
@Herbert: It only counts as a loss if he has leprosy.
What if it is a case of Vaginae Dentata?
Then that will add a whole new meaning to the term ‘cock gobbler’.
*all girls
FTFY
It’s only all girls if he chops it up into tiny little pieces and lovingly deposits one piece in each girl. Otherwise, once he loses his penis in some girl, that girl has it until he finds it again.
For some reason, I suspect Joe would object to chopping up his penis into tiny little pieces.
Heck, I’m not Joe, and I object to that, too.
Bekah, dont give ideas to that woman in California who put her husband’s dick in a blender
Most guys would object that.
Who else was in Joe’s betting pools I wonder? I wager Billy, Mike, and Galasso.
I feel like Danny is in there for making his sock a liar a couple days ago
Mike is whatever you don’t want him to be, so therefore everyone would lose that pool.
But walky and Gary are my OTP
There’s always fanfic, man.
Who says Walky can’t have’em both?
As far as I know, Walky never stated that he disliked men.
Gary?
Walky’s soulmate. They’re gonna get married.
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2012/comic/book-2/03-the-first-step-towards-recovery/walky/
Is it just me, or did Joyce look grouchy at the fact that there was a girl in Walky’s doodle?
My guess is that her brain just broke over the pre-maritial hanky-panky; or that she is in shock because a bigger dweeb than her has found a romantic interest before she did.
Funny. I was suspecting that Walky was unknowingly her “safety”.
Right. I’m sorry, I totally forgot. And it wasn’t even that long ago
They’re gonna get man married.
You know? Gary? From Walky’s doodlings? Good times.
So Joe was betting on that Walky would be gay and Dorothy would be a lesbian?
It appears to be the case, yes. And this was the best possible way for him to lose the bet, under the circumstances.
Joe has lost a lot of money from his betting pool me thinks.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Mike placed a bet after witnessing Walky and Dorothy making-out the night before. It would have placed him in a strong position to win Joe’s money, albeit with knowledge of the truth in his favor.
Another Student: “Sounds like this is a game changing day for all of us. I almost sat on my balls, but at the last minute, I adjusted.”
Which is why I always sit with my legs apart, it’s less painfull that way.
“You see. It could have been worse. You coulda had crushed nuts. I hope that puts your relationship issues into perspective.”
That was the longest three-hour lunch ever.
6 seasons and a movie!
Aw, this went better than I expected.
Very brave that Walky, we all know how hated by society those damned hetros are with their compatible genitals and their lack of fabulousness.
Hey, nice Gravatar, Plas. Who is it?
Today’s trap err I mean grav is Ranmaru Kirino from ‘Inazuma Eleven GO’, a show which is a cross between a soccer anime and Dragonball.
Wait….. THAT’S A GUY? Oh wait, his name is Ranmaru. That’s kinda of giveaway.
If you are aware of my tastes in anime/manga, a large number of them have traps as protagionists or at least as supporting characters.
In that case, might I suggest Tieria from Gundam 00?
While I haven’t watched any Gundam, I am well aware of the trapiness of Tieria Erde thanks to the boorus.
How about Bridget from Guilty Gear? Or Rei from Hokuto no Ken?
Or that dude from the Moonlight Case from Detective Conan? Best trap ever in my book.
Is there a “Plasma Mongoose Wiki” somewhere that keeps track of these things?
There should be. Someone get on it.
I think Google already knows a lot about me but a wiki site would be ego-boosting at least.
thank god they’re a minority.
Especially in San Francisco from what I heard.
Now I’m no heterophope, in fact some of my friends are straights, not my good friends mind you but I do wave to them and say hello, I think that counts. But heterosexuality is just plain wrong, the thought of a man and woman together like that sickens me and is therefore not something anyone should do.
If I had a god I would tell you to pray to him that he might heal you.
(On the very off chance someone thinks I’m serious by this point I say… Really?)
The heteros are a proud people with a rich heritige. It’s cuz of guys like you that so many heterosexuals are in the closet.
You mean outside the closet.
and the worse thing is, hetrosexuals make babies, you know, those small, loud, over-demanding poo factories.
did you mean Frat Boys?
No babies are twice as bad because after you think they’ve grown out of it they can BECOME Frat Boys.
QFT ^_^
What’s even worse is that they’re asking for the right to raise those babies now. How’s a boy to become properly masculine with only one strong male presence in the house. And what about the straight influence? They could get turned hetero!
Do you realize what an impact the heteros have made in the fields of sports? Just because you’re a knuckle dragging THEATER LOVER, you think people can’t love who they want to love. FOR SHAME!
Aaaand then Leslie turns it all around by going, “Yes, but that’s not relevent to the class and you’re taking time away from the lesson.” And Mike continues whistling on the way back to his dorm.
Walky in the fourth panel is just so damn cute.
Now I will picture Joyce sounding like Alison Brie forevermore! Thanks Willis!
i await the day when we’re introduced to walky’s pet, named “joyce’s sweatervests”.
I applaud Leslie’s patience, if one of my students actually pull this in class I would probably say: “This has nothing to do with the executive branch, please sit down and please don’t speak for remaining duration of this class period.” Then I would give the class a pop quiz or a three page essay that was due next class.
If one of my students interupted the class I would slowly lean back in my chair and level up my pokemon.
Fuck yeah, Pokemon!
I am so out of date with Pokemon, I am only really familiar with the first 3 generations, I know little of the most recent 2 gens.
That’s okay, Pokemon Crystal was the best anyways.
I will read that as Pokemon Crystal Meth is the best.
That’s okay, Pokemon Crystal was the best anyways.
You seem to have mispelled Heartgold but it’s not big deal.
please, people. Silver. The term is Silver. Not crystal. Not mithril, Krystaal, wildberry Silver, or heaven forbid any sort of chromatic nonsense. Just. Silver. G24Lyfe.

So Dorothy is Ms. Piggy and McNuggets is Kermit the Frog. So this means because frogs have no gentiles So they cannot have sex which makes sense why they made out. I am like Gonzo except better looking and not short and blue.
In the Muppets movie Gonzo wanted to get with Miss Piggy but she didn’t like him, and like Gonzo I would have totally made out with Miss Piggy I mean Dorothy but I am okay Dorothy making out McNuggets because I can get a lot of chicks. Like there was this chick that came out my room who I thought my roommate was banging, but he wasn’t(lame) and she was like an eight, she also implied that she would like to bang me latter which I am super cool with. Also Dorothy is my roommate’s ex-girlfriend so does that make him gonzo and me Stafford or Waldorf, But wait Danny and Dorothy broke up like a week ago so I am not cool with this, cause bros’ before hos’. Actually Danny Like’s this girl who kind of looks like Dorothy its kind of creepy, but he blew it with her twice. Also he talks in his sleep about amazi-girl. I don’t know who that is but she probably like a ten.
So also the guy who punched me in the face a lot on my date with Joyce which ended poorly also and I geuss he represents the people who operated the puppets on the Muppet show. Also that woman who act all smart are not always lesbians and shouldn’t be confined to like gender roles. So in conclusion you should not bet on who is a lesbian because you will lose money the end.
This paper would have probably gotten an F.
That’s because you wrote it like a grade schooler.
Suffice to say I am not satisfied with my prior comment, the joke was poorly executed and therefore not funny. So I am going to give list of reasons why I failed:
1.) the comment box is very small, and sometimes its difficult to keep track of what I wrote.
2.) I didn’t try very hard.
3.) What I mean when I say “I didn’t try very hard”, is that I sort of tried then gave up half way. However since I committed myself to this task just dropping the entire project would have resulted in me wasting ten minutes of my life.
4.) Since there was nothing a stake other then being ridiculed on the internet, there was not very much motivating me by the end.
5.) I have never been particularly good with grammar and syntax or spelling. So when I do write an essay or article it usually goes through three rounds of revisions before I actually present it. I didn’t have the patience to actually go through this process for a comment.
6.) I probably put more time into writing this comment then I did writing the essay comment, and that saddens me.
So I have learned my lesson and I apologize.
I figured the typos and grammatical errors were intentional, what with it being Joe and all.
Depands on the assignment. If the assignment was to compose a 5 page paper of gender studies of local contemporary issues from one’s personal perspective then yes Joe would get an F. But if it was just an 1 page assignment then he would probably get a respectable “C”.
Read kind of Faz-esque to me.
There is not a chance in hell that Joe would misspell ‘genitals’.
@mechaqua: “frogs have no gentiles” Does that mean that all frogs are Jewish?
As Joe and myself are both Jewish, neither he nor I would refer to to a religious group nor any religious group as a frog (I can’t speak for Joe but I. Which what I tried to do and I failed). No the reason for the word gentiles appearing was my failure to check spell check. I refer you to As Joe and myself are both Jewish, neither he nor I would refer to to a religious group nor any religious group as a frog (I can’t speak for Joe but I. Which what I tried to do and I failed). No the reason for the word gentiles appearing was my failure to check spell check. I refer you to section three of my apology.
Also before one asks no my comparison of Joe to Gonzo, was not a play at any Jewish stereotype. the root of that comparison can be found in the first Muppet movie, the Muppet show and the Muppet Babies.
spell-checkers I know of wouldn’t have spotted the mistake in using the word gentiles instead of genitals unless they have some truly amazing context subroutines programmed into them.
Looking back at the strip with Mike lounging in the doorway while Joyce was ‘inquiring’ about Walky and was he straight-think Mike just found a way to inform her in his typical Mikeness. Mike has always ‘seemed’ to like Joyce..well like is too strong…tolerate maybe? I think Mike pulled a quadruple here. 1-embarass Dorothy 2-embarass Walky 3-blow both of Joe’s bets 4-inform Joyce that Walky is being eyed by another girl. Why would he do that, He’s Mike, He’s set things in motion, now he’ll watch.
But Joyce isn’t longing for Walky. She’s currently moist for Ethan.
Most of that makes sense to me. And it will actually be five when Billie finds out that Walky didn’t need her help to win over Dorothy at all. Would Mike honestly let her believe otherwise?
Though I’m not sure that Joyce really has any feelings for Walky in this comic (as of right now).
I’m not sure one way or the other, but I will make random points that seem to support the fact.
1) Joyce spends a lot of time with Walky.
2) Joyce had a mad face when asking Walky about the girl in his doodle.
3) Joyce is vehement about Dorothy not being interested in Walky.
4) Joyce’s expression, when she learns Dorothy kissed Walky, seems to be not just one of shock, but also dismay.
Although most of these points could also be used to support the hypothesis that Joyce is secretly in love with Dorothy. My personal ship.
Actually that doesn’t look very dismayed to me. Seems more like she’s trying to look surprised but isn’t exactly sure what “surprised” looks like.
He’s set things in motion is exactly right. Mike doesn’t work on one or two levels. He’ll be there for Joyce. But that could easily be another level.
Mike also could have entered the bet pool and now has all of Joe’s $$$ and beat his face in… wow talk about losing faaaaacccccccccceee.
Dorothy is my new favorite character. I doubted her at first, but i am touched by her courage, honesty, and empathy.
If Joyce was really played by Annie Edison there’d be a much more gratuitous cleavage. I feel misled, XD.
So wait Mike is Pierce, Joe is Jeff, Joyce is Shirley, Walky is Abed, wait who is Troy??
Crap i Britta’d this comment.
I was thinking Troy would be Walky- but I still can’t figure out Shirley. And Billie and Britta feels right to me. Besides that, I approve of your choices.
Maybe Amber is Abes, because Abed is Batman now?
Actually, maybe Shirly would be Billie because she’s really judgemental.
Also, I think Robin is the Dean. That is all.
How heteronormative!
Oh man, I totally read Joyce’s gasp in Annie’s voice too.
Next on Dumbing of Age… 5 panels of Joyce Gaspface. That is all.
She will inhale ALL the oxygen and create a vacuum. Everyone else will suffocate.
And Mike’s plan comes to fruition.
Nope, Walky and Dorothy will survive by giving each other mouth-to-mouth respiration.
Until they both die of only breathing carbon dioxide
And on that day, Joe’s heart shattered at the realization that the only man he ever loved was eternally lost to him…
He bought so many sports cars, but they just didn’t help.
Joe’s gaydar seems to be rather off, doesn’t it? That’s a surprise; you’d think he’d developed a really good one after being so promiscuous.
Or as I call it, “Joemiscuous.”
It could well be on the fritz because he’s suppressing something specific in this verse. Isn’t Joe Jewish?
joewish if you will
I can’t for the life of me figure out what that would mean. He’s Jewish, so he’s repressing… his gaydar?
Sorry. Ethan is looking for a gay Jewish geek. If Joe is Jewish, and we already know he’s a geek (right? I can’t keep my verses straight right now), then maybe he’ll wind up not being the ladies man we’re all expecting (himself included) and instead end up with Ethan. Or not. Or maybe I’m just a year late to this line of thinking.
Gotcha. That makes more sense. I knew there was a logic behind that, I just couldn’t figure out what it was.
Joe is going to Joe Ethan? Right in the Joe-hole?
Odd, I presumed that Mike was going to Joe Ethan.
Then again, if Joe is Joeing Ethan, and Mike waltzes in an Joes Ethan, then it would be a perfectly Mike thing to do in order to ruin Joe and Ethan’s relationship, and maybe give Joe another reason to hate Mike. Meanwhile, Ethan would feel conflicted and guilty.
And Mike would then sleep with both of their mothers at once.
Nah, Mike already did ‘im in Sp!. I think Willis is trying to avoid repeating himself. I guess if Mike and Ethan started dating, that would be suitably different.
Guess we’ll have to wait and see…
Wait… if Joyce is being played by Annie Edison, then where’s Annie’s Boobs? Gotta be around there somewhere…
dammit, i lost that pool too.
way to stick up for yourself walky
Tomorrow’s comic:
Leslie: thank you for yet again disrupting my class. I’ll be docking you half a letter grade for the course Dorothy.
Dorothy proceeds to make the face that brings the end of the world.
“Make the face that brings the end of the world” is the greatest phrase I’ve ever seen. You win.
That quality of Dorothy surely makes her a little more of an Annie.
“Walky is kind and fun to be with and sat with me when I had a bad day.” D’awwwwwwwwww!
Wait this seems a little odd. When I shove my tongue down some dude’s throat just outside his dorm room not realizing that his roommate is staring the entire time, I don’t then feel like I need to hide it or owe anyone an explanation. If I’m not talking about it the next day, it’s not because I am ashamed of it or the dude. It’s because I’m private.
You know. Outside of dorm hallways I mean.
Yeah, but it’s kinda different because the roommate doesn’t usually try and bring it up in a really insulting manner in the middle of your classes, and then by pushing away the topic you aren’t simultaneously agreeing with insults about the dude you kissed.
You know, this is comic world. Things are different here. There are Mikes here.
Maybe it’s because I relate to Mike of all the people in this situation
Totally expecting this to backfire hard when Joyce’s repressed rage bursts out… Oh good lord, I would LOVE if she let loose the beast all over Mike’s face for being ‘the bearer of bad news’. And he did mess with the date with Joe as well, so even if it wasn’t necessarily his fault, he’s been the face of failure for her.
*Applause*
Way to go Dorothy. If you become a politician I will vote for you.
Also Joe, you forget to create a “Bisexual Pool?”
Joe probably doesn’t have that mental category.
He probably does for girls at least. He probably has it mentally labeled “Best of Both Worlds.”
Not unless he’s bi too. Methinks it’d be labeled “Twice of the best world”.
(or were you thinking about futa?)
The “both worlds” to which I refer are the world of straight girls, whom Joe is totally into, and the world of lesbians, whom Joe can watch.
That’s sweet. Also, I just realized Walky the doofus gets the girl while Joe the man-whore only got punched repeatedly. Irony!
Punched repeatedly in the crotch. With Roz’s crotch.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. D’oh well.
Anyone else think Joe looks disappointed when walky says he’s straight?
Yes. Re-read the last panel.
Oops missed that ending. Hate when that happens.
Yay! Dorothy was mature enough!
Go realistic happenings!
Screw the drama tab!
Punch it in the face for a nickel!
I’m doing my part to ruin the meme!
Screw the meme!
It was getting old!
…Hi.
So. It has come to this.
I think Mike simply wanted Joe to lose.
I think Mike just won himself some betting pools.
Cut to Mike. Back lit. Eyes narrow.
“Exactly as planned.”
Music sting. Bystanders gasp.
The Saint OST playing….
Wait, I don’t think Mike will fit The Saint character well.
Maybe the theme from “It takes a Thief” would be more apropos?
Mike as Light Yagami?
Teru Mikami would be more dramatic, I think.
Also: now I’ve got Domine Kira stuck in my head. So thanks for that I guess.
NINGUN SUCKER AAA AAA NINGUN FUCKER
Is this a “Lynx effect” advert for the Butt Taco t-shirt?
And Leslie says, “…ok, that’s nice. Good for you. Can we have class now?”
Ha ha, I don’t think I’d have the patience to be in Leslie’s position right now. “I don’t CARE if you smooched someone, sit down and take notes on my lecture!”
I may be late to notice… but I like the new banner! Hey Mr. W – What’s up with QC Jeph and that link to here? Been that way since… the cruise? Is it a new nickname we should be using??
I think it’s just that he updated his links and the PECSPECSPECSPECS wasn’t really relevant anymore (if it ever was)
Joe’s gonna loose another pool that he wasn’t in on…This will happen when he accidentally kisses Mike and LIKES it. C:<
Annie Edison from the “Edison Twins” TV show?
I wonder who Joe bet on Walky’s sexuality. I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if it was Mike, and this was all just a ridiculously asshole way to win $5. Which would buy him a lot of moms.
is joyce going to get hooked on pills and lose her virginity then?
We almost had that story arc, come to think of it.
ITS TRUE! Whatever happens to Annie will happen to Joyce, with a slightly darker turn!
So they’re offically canon in-universe.
Boom again joyce
