Demoncat wrongly assumes that the guy who we’ve seen with a girlfriend is homosexual, rather than the overcompensating football players talking about gays.
He might be a soccer player… I play with a guy who played at a rival school in college, and those dudes fit the description of IU soccer players. But whatever, noone but the football team gives a shit about the football team.
As a current college student, I totally and completely agree with this statement. Football players rarely pick on anyone at my school. Booze usually fills up their time pretty nicely (at least, stereotypically speaking).
I do love that they’re wearing sunglasses at night.
Beef is back suckas! Let the pummeling begin. My wondering is this though, since this doesn’t involve aliens….beef isn’t Walky’s bro anymore…. how will this effect Beef and even more…. Sal?
Should note, before someone responds, that I don’t mean the Shortpacked parody of Funky Winkerbean, but the parody of that strip poking fun at the level of homosexuality in Shortpacked.
Meh, it’s arguable. I can’t say I’m too pleased with the change either, but he’s got a lot of room to grow from here. Besides, he was pretty attached to Sal, we just didn’t see that side of him as often because she was so far away.
And Joyce is waaaaaaaaaay more well-adjusted now, so Danny’s not the only one who’s changed.
Danny was always like this, he just didn’t get the chance to show it because Sal wasn’t around for him to obsess over and Joyce’s clinginess vastly overshadowed his own. Plus, he had to grow up pretty damn quick after Ruth’s sacrifice. The only difference I see is the circumstances.
He reminds me of what freshmen can be like when they first start college. Kind of unrealistic. I think he’ll probably learn from this and become easier to like.
They might not really be planning to beat him up. Danny is still a new freshman; he could just be assuming incorrectly that college is more like high school than it really is.
My guess is Sal comes out of the bushes and pummels the hell out of these guys. And that’s how she and Danny meet.
This is just sad, really. You can that he had the breakup coming to him and Joe had the right to be a douchebag about it after their conversation that morning, but this is just kicking him when he’s down.
It is a cataract, so in dim to normal light conditions I’m only blind in the left side of my left eye. However, in bright light conditions (I.E. inside a class room or a sunny day) the light bounces around inside my eye because the cataract is reflective as well as semi transparent making it so I get an intense pain as well as being completely blind in the eye. Not fun…
And my insurance refuses to pay to have it removed because its 1 milimeter to small. As my eye doc put it, its just to small to remove but big enough to blind you.
I’m just lucky I managed to fake my way through the eye exame to get my drivers lisence. No, not really I’m not THAT blind XD.
Anyone else think the background in the first panel is folding up Inception-style? Actually, perspective seems to be a consistent problem with you when you try and draw detailed backgrounds, Willis.
Yay, typical gay-hating jock(s) who bully people, but will likely end up in a situation that makes their sexuality look questionable as some form of poetic justice. It’s like I’m reading Dominic Deegan.
Anyway, only the one that looks like Duke Nukem should be allowed to wear Sunglasses at night.
I really don’t think these guys are “gay-hating”. They’re using it as an insult, sure, but mainly because it’s an easy and current label to leap on. It’s more that they are unimaginative with their choice of insults.
Danny, this is not High School anymore, they are mot going to beat you up. What they are going to do is get you drunk until you pass out, draw penises all over your face, and post the pictures all over the campus web page.
The relative ages of characters in the previous continuity don’t matter in Dumbing of Age. After all, we’ve been hanging out with a Billie and Danny who are the same age for about 25 strips now, when they were a year apart in Roomies!.
In my previous comics that used these characters, Beef was Walky’s adopted brother. But that relationship doesn’t exist in this continuity, so what’s actually important is that Beef is a huge muscled jock who speaks only in grunts.
I thought beef was his horridly traumatized swapped baby brother from another mother. Or arnie clone. yeah, screw that. he was an arnie clone from the future sent to the past to completely screw any chance of that making any sense what so ever.
I’m gonna have to agree with Everyl and others. the jocks are probably just being dicks, but they likely have better things to do than beat up freshmen. Danny just assumes he’s going to be attacked.
American universities are strange though. As far as I’m aware even verbal harrasment doesn’t really happen at the universities here. Elsewhere in the city sure, junior highschools definately, but the college students and jocks here are pretty nice people. But what do I know? I’m Canadian. Its october and I haven’t even gotten drunk yet this term.
by which I mean, I feel as though the drinking culture of the universities here is far less emphasized than what my understanding of the drinking culture of the american schools is.
Don’t forget the drinking age in the U.S. is 21, in most of Canada, it is 18 or 19, so most university age kids can drink legally in Canada. You know, the forbidden fruit thing.
Is jocks getting homophobic and beating up on people a common occurence in most colleges? It’s been a few years since I left UCF, but as I recall the one time a student transfered in from South Carolina on football scholarship and tried to mess with a freshman, he ended up taking a knife between the ribs. It’s too dangerous out there for that schoolyard bully crap nowadays.
Yeah, I don’t recall ever being hassled by anyone in College. In fact, at least for me, college was the age when I began to realize that being attacked by people meant I could…you know…call the police and press assault charges and stuff.
Okay, can I say how much I hate it when people use “gay” like it’s an insult?
I don’t have anything against this comic using it, because it’s highlighting just how lame-ass those football jocks are, calling someone gay and bullying him. I mean, I don’t have a problem with this comic at all, so don’t jump on me for that. But seriously, it’s just… when you grow up with people who say that kind of stuff, it does hurt, doesn’t it? And I just seriously hate jerks like that. .___.
I don’t have any personal experience; I found people were surprisingly pleasant or indifferent in college. Even more so than in the adult world; but it’s undeniable there are jerks everywhere so it’s not outside the realm of possibility.

danny is a homosexual and will die alone and buttloved.
No, Demoncat, that’s you.
<> Don’t Feed The Trolls
But they’re so hungry, mommy!
let them starve.
Demoncat wrongly assumes that the guy who we’ve seen with a girlfriend is homosexual, rather than the overcompensating football players talking about gays.
It’s a joke on the “Billie is an alcoholic and will die alone and unloved” thing from an earlier strip, calm down.
That’s how I remember every one I’ve ever met from IU.
If he’s buttloved how is that alone?
Half right!
::slow claps::
So far, you’re half a third correct.
You know, if he’s buttloved, he’s not exactly alone.
BEEF
BEEEEEEEEEF!!!
BEEEEEEEEEEFF!!!
STEEEEEEEVEN!
FAAAAAAAACE!!!!!!!!
Bovinae!!
Moo?
Its….what’s….for….dinner….?
How gay.
Now why did I know Beef was gonna be on the football team?
Well, where else was he going to be?
…In a freezer? That’s where I’d leave him.
Just sayin’.
No no, he’s “fresh, never frozen Beef.”
Really? You went there? (:
He might be a soccer player… I play with a guy who played at a rival school in college, and those dudes fit the description of IU soccer players. But whatever, noone but the football team gives a shit about the football team.
Because he already was! Beef caught the footballs!
http://www.itswalky.com/d/19991226.html
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEF!!!!!
Didn’t realize it was beef until I read the tag. I’m not used to him looking like a real person.
Oh the was a dead give away to me.
Er the “Grunt” in my last post was lost damn.
“Oh the Grunt was a dead give away to me”
Thats what I said.
did you put it inside<>? If so, don’t in the future, coding for this thread appears to do that
I didn’t realize it was him until July 29, 2011.
Beef!
Wait… I think you’ve confused college with high school. In college, the football players are too busy getting drunk to pick on someone like Danny.
As a current college student, I totally and completely agree with this statement. Football players rarely pick on anyone at my school. Booze usually fills up their time pretty nicely (at least, stereotypically speaking).
I do love that they’re wearing sunglasses at night.
Maybe they’re on their way to get drunk and hadn’t reached their daily quota for saying the word gay.
I want something very horrible to happen to those guys (except Beef).
Beef is back suckas! Let the pummeling begin. My wondering is this though, since this doesn’t involve aliens….beef isn’t Walky’s bro anymore…. how will this effect Beef and even more…. Sal?
Oh my god, where’s Ruth when you need her to destroy people?
dood
Dood?
*Throws a Prinny*
Hey, it’s Beef!
Poor Danny, getting made fun of by jocks.
Now where is that parody someone (I think Greg Dean) drew of Funky Cancercancer?
And do I even want to know who the one who isn’t DYW or Beef is?
Should note, before someone responds, that I don’t mean the Shortpacked parody of Funky Winkerbean, but the parody of that strip poking fun at the level of homosexuality in Shortpacked.
Also, not totally buying David Willis as a jock.
I’m pretty sure that the strip you refer to is a gest strip by Willis for Real Life Comics which poked fun at himself.
Not 100% sure though because its been a while since I read it.
I also am unable to type apparently…
http://reallifecomics.com/archive/090723.html <---gaayy
AH HA I KNEW IT!
It 404’d on me, anybody got a backup?
Pretty sure our fearless leader here wrote Funky Cancercancer.
Has Tom Batiuk ben added to the federal list of Known Carcinogens yet? I’m pretty sure he’s already illegal in California.
I have to say, I don’t like new danny. All the other characters are basically the same, but he’s just.. such a little bongo.
Meh, it’s arguable. I can’t say I’m too pleased with the change either, but he’s got a lot of room to grow from here. Besides, he was pretty attached to Sal, we just didn’t see that side of him as often because she was so far away.
And Joyce is waaaaaaaaaay more well-adjusted now, so Danny’s not the only one who’s changed.
well, we’re not entirely sure how well adjusted Joyce is yet. we have yet to see when she gets into a relationship. oh, the drama to ensue!
Danny was always like this, he just didn’t get the chance to show it because Sal wasn’t around for him to obsess over and Joyce’s clinginess vastly overshadowed his own. Plus, he had to grow up pretty damn quick after Ruth’s sacrifice. The only difference I see is the circumstances.
He reminds me of what freshmen can be like when they first start college. Kind of unrealistic. I think he’ll probably learn from this and become easier to like.
Huh. When I was in college I never saw jocks beating anyone up, at least not randomly. There was a whole lot of folk calling other folk “gay” though.
Yeah, this does seem rather… high-school-ish.
High school was the time that most jocks beat up babies.
The name calling with “gay” seems pretty on target, though.
Now I seem like an ass. I meant to type “freshpeople”. Sorry about that, was talking while I typed. That was not meant as a joke.
Yeah, I’m glad I’m not the only one that thought that. But I dunno; maybe we’re in for some kind of Revenge of the Nerds-type reference or something.
REVENGE OF THE GAYWADS
IN THEATERS THIS OCTOBER
They might not really be planning to beat him up. Danny is still a new freshman; he could just be assuming incorrectly that college is more like high school than it really is.
My guess is Sal comes out of the bushes and pummels the hell out of these guys. And that’s how she and Danny meet.
This is just sad, really. You can that he had the breakup coming to him and Joe had the right to be a douchebag about it after their conversation that morning, but this is just kicking him when he’s down.
Not out of the bushes, through a window. Don’t care if there are no windows anywhere near by.
There’s windows in the background of panels three and four….
Huh. It could work, if this was the Walkyverse, but here it’d be a bit of a stretch.
It would be nice to keep up the gag, though.
She’s pushing around a wall on wheels just so she can bust through it in these types of situations.
…gaywad? Wow. I haven’t heard that in probably twenty years.
I’m bringing it back.
Like… that one boy band guy… brought Sexyback? Please God no!
“I’m bringing gaywad back. You other homo’s don’t know how to act” Yeah, that could be a song.
Probably already is by the rules of the internet. If not: QUICK COPYRIGHT IT!
It’s already working. “Gaywad” was used in Thursday’s Community. Booyah! I’m streets ahead!
Maybe Danny is gay and it will be Danny and Ethan together!
One can dream
Consider Shortpacked for a moment.
Now try to convince yourself this isn’t foreshadowing.
The only thing that would make me happier is if Danny were paired with me!
Danny and Ethan do seem to be a pretty good fit!
Welcome to the world of Willis: Where EVERYONE will be gay if he has any say in it.
…I wish I lived in that world…

YOU ARE A FUCKING PROPHET
PROFIT from your psychic abilities!
Except that Danny isn’t gay, and he’s not with Ethan. But you were right about him not being straight!
I wear my sunglasses at night!
No, I really do, I’m blind in one eye and bright light makes it 100 times worse… But apparently those football players do too.
Dammit, this strip already got that damn song stuck in my head…why did you have to cement it?
Because I’m evil, can’t you tell from my avatar?
Nah…that just telegraphs the crazy…
Now, Dorothy…that would indicate evil. >_>
Hang on, how can you be 100 times more blind? Does bright light make you deaf as well?
(genuinly confused)
It is a cataract, so in dim to normal light conditions I’m only blind in the left side of my left eye. However, in bright light conditions (I.E. inside a class room or a sunny day) the light bounces around inside my eye because the cataract is reflective as well as semi transparent making it so I get an intense pain as well as being completely blind in the eye.

I’m just lucky I managed to fake my way through the eye exame to get my drivers lisence. No, not really I’m not THAT blind XD.
(Talking way more then I need to)
Anyone else think the background in the first panel is folding up Inception-style? Actually, perspective seems to be a consistent problem with you when you try and draw detailed backgrounds, Willis.
Hi there Beef and two other guys I don’t know!
See this? This is why so many gay teens are killing themselves. Here’s hoping Sal turns the entire football team into ground beef.
Punny :/
I saw the strip and knew, knew, knew somebody was going to say something like this. Sigh.
Danny is not actually gay it is not the same oh my godd
So… this is why many streight teens are killing themselves? :O
“She GAY-broke up with your GAY-FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!”
Fixed that for ya.
Yay, typical gay-hating jock(s) who bully people, but will likely end up in a situation that makes their sexuality look questionable as some form of poetic justice. It’s like I’m reading Dominic Deegan.
Anyway, only the one that looks like Duke Nukem should be allowed to wear Sunglasses at night.
Gay-FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!
Maybe the next strip is Danny drunk with his new jock buddies or something. This isn’t high school after all.
“You’re better without her buddy! Here have a keg!”
But the more likely scenario is Sal showing up.
I really don’t think these guys are “gay-hating”. They’re using it as an insult, sure, but mainly because it’s an easy and current label to leap on. It’s more that they are unimaginative with their choice of insults.
Look at those smiles! They seem so friendly! I bet they just wanna know if those sweet shades make them look gay.
And when you guys are done, you can go back through your closets and back to Narnia *rolls over and goes back to sleep*
Danny, this is not High School anymore, they are mot going to beat you up. What they are going to do is get you drunk until you pass out, draw penises all over your face, and post the pictures all over the campus web page.
You just never know. They might beat him up for suggesting that they might beat him up.
Welcome to Collage life. Time to get your chin up and have a stiff lip and be a man
omg gay.
I had just been asking myself, “Where’s the Beef?”
Aww… I actually feel a little bad for Danny now… Poor guy doesn’t know how to take a shot at his sexuality.
I actually just noticed that Beef is rather handsome in his Varsity coat. He never struck me as such from IW, but now…damn.
But their faces look so pleasant! If I weren’t reading the text, I’d think they were being nice guys.
“Hey pal, have a beer.”
So, are they going to punch him in the faaaaaaace?
Sorry, I just wanted to play too. Anyway, good to see Beef making an appearance, but why does he look like Duke?
So who’s next? I am guessing Sal, saving Danny’s ass.
Beef has a rather funny faaaaaaaaaaace.
>> Uh, anyhow, yay Beef! I’m also hoping this somehow causes Sal to show up.
Is that Alan? There’s Beef, some odd incarnation of Willis and a random dude. But just like Rachel, his face rings a bell.
Yay Beef!
Wait, does this make Beef not a freshman? Shouldn’t he still be at least relatively the same age as Walky?
The relative ages of characters in the previous continuity don’t matter in Dumbing of Age. After all, we’ve been hanging out with a Billie and Danny who are the same age for about 25 strips now, when they were a year apart in Roomies!.
Oh, but it’s an alternate universe!
That’s… pretty much all I can come up with. :B
“Whatever our lives might have been if the time continuum was disrupted – our destinies have changed.”
Spock (before being beaten by Lizard).
n00b here: Who the f**k is Beef?
Walky’s brother.
Less confusing answer:
In my previous comics that used these characters, Beef was Walky’s adopted brother. But that relationship doesn’t exist in this continuity, so what’s actually important is that Beef is a huge muscled jock who speaks only in grunts.
Is Beef part Wookiee?
yes
It is quite possible.
I thought beef was his horridly traumatized swapped baby brother from another mother. Or arnie clone. yeah, screw that. he was an arnie clone from the future sent to the past to completely screw any chance of that making any sense what so ever.
I’m gonna have to agree with Everyl and others. the jocks are probably just being dicks, but they likely have better things to do than beat up freshmen. Danny just assumes he’s going to be attacked.

Even in this universe he a jerk.
You might even say he’s more jerky than Beef. *get tomato’d*
omg its beef still waiting to see Sal!!!!!!!!!!
Hehe… ‘She GAY-broke up with your GAY-face’
Fun stuff. Keep on rocking the goods!
I really hope a gay character kicks their asses. Just because the irony would be delicious.
Yeah, gay-kicks their asses.
BEEF!
Is jocks getting homophobic and beating up on people a common occurence in most colleges?

Nice to see human-sized beef…
Hey! Looit that! It’s the resident Jack ass squad!
Yeah, I don’t recall ever being hassled by anyone in College. In fact, at least for me, college was the age when I began to realize that being attacked by people meant I could…you know…call the police and press assault charges and stuff.
purdue: much better, cuz the coolest kid on campus still probably is an engineer.
Aha ha oh those Jock’s are so cleaver.
Okay, can I say how much I hate it when people use “gay” like it’s an insult?

And I just seriously hate jerks like that. .___.
It took me most of “it’s walky” to notice that’s beef.
does this actually happen at colleges these days?
I don’t have any personal experience; I found people were surprisingly pleasant or indifferent in college. Even more so than in the adult world; but it’s undeniable there are jerks everywhere so it’s not outside the realm of possibility.
Getting beaten up by those three guys actually sounds a lot better than having to listen to them talking. I approve of Danny’s line there.
Take this a a lesson kids, If your going to be an ass, don’t be a stupid ass like jock#1 here
I see Beef, and I don’t recognize the other two.
