I think dudes are usually brought up with low expectations that encourages them to not develop the same higher brain functions expected of ladydudes. Nothing that can’t be fixed.
He doesn’t even require that level of maintenance, he’ll provide his own mcnuggets!
Honestly, I think that’s kinda why Dorothy likes him so much, he’s completely independant, nothing Walky desires is dependant on Dorothy and he’s even shown that he respects her own goals.
That’s pretty much what I thought — they have fun together, but they have fun separately as well. Dorothy wants to be independent because she doesn’t want someone interfering with her goals, Walky wants to be independent because he wants to be a totally rad single guy with a house made of Lego and waterslides. (Which is pretty much the same reason. Huh.)
I assume grav is a term for their display image.
It’s one of Hexidecimal’s faces. Hexidecimal being a villain from the CG cartoon Reboot from the 90’s. It’s totally radical.
I did have the strangest Inspector Gadget related fanfic idea the other day: Penny, Jade Chan, Miko from Prime and Amy Mizuno/Sailor Mercury move in together and solve mysteries!
Sort of like a younger Golden Girls but with more mysteries and less hot flashes. Still lot of cheesecake though (insert rimshot here)
Speaking of Go-Bots, I used to watch that all the time as a kid and my mom taught me a quick and handy spagetti sauce recipe using GOBOTS as a mnemonic:
Garlic
Oregano
Basil
Onion powder (I hate real onions)
Tomatoes
Sauce
Even though I know that it’s just small and sketchy cuz it’s a background object, I like to imagine the fire escape plans are just crudely drawn in crayon because the school can’t afford to print one out for every dorm room.
Walky? You may want to keep in mind a few of the things she asked you to do was feel her up and go to bed with her. For that you can deal with grabbing lightbulbs and occasionally studying.
It’s a difficult question. First, we have to decide just how small we can shrink our Walkies. Then we have to see if they really feel that way about one another.
~100000000000000. Because they don’t consider it worth the effort of doing themselves, so it can only occur as an incidental result of the lightbulb’s response to their gravitational pull.
Close choice between Jacob and Mike. Love Mike my favorite of all time. But Jacob is for eye candy and then some.
Joe thinks well enough of himself that being low on poll won’t bother him.
Logic does not apply to Walky and Dorothy. Most mismatched duo here. But cute.
Dorothy had to ask him to pick a piece of clothing for her … therefore asking her to wear an awesome cheese shirt was still following her orders !
She’s totally using him as a tool !
What do you mean, ‘maybe a step-ladder’? Do you need a step ladder or don’t you? Based on the ceilings in every panel of the comic so far, I’d guess that she needs a step-ladder. Maybe even an ordinary ladder.
Actually, she seems to be looking almost directly upwards at the lightbulb from right in the corner of the room. That suggests that the roof is extremely high, so that even a small angle from the wall translates to a reasonable horizontal difference. I have created a helpful diagram to illustrate this point.
Oh no. I have found the single unprofessional component of my diagram. I misspelled ‘reasonable’. I assure you that the error was merely typographical in nature.
Actually there is an other mistake.
You remembered to spot the Feral Dina in the room but misplaced her. Dina ALWAYS hides behind the door, so that when she reveals herself you can’t escape !
I actually understand how Walky feels here. As someone who hates asking people to do anything for him, it is exceedingly rare for me to ask favours of anyone. I will find a way to do it myself if at all possible, only turning to others as a last resort. While I don’t mind helping people out if they ask for it, over the course of a long relationship, I could easily see why Walky might start to feel put upon if Dorothy is always asking him to do things while Walky never does likewise.
Ah, hm. Yes, that’s technically accurate, if one person never asks anything then even a minimal amount of ‘asking for things’ is ‘doing all the asking’ in the relationship.
I mistook it for meaning she asked for things a LOT when we don’t necessarily know that. Presumably Walky at least feels a bit of that, and I still assume he’s asking because he feels she asks him to do things more often than he thinks is appropriate rather than that he’s pointing out a random factoid concerning the amount of asking in the relationship.
Sort of an odd university, where the students are expected to change their own light bulbs, and where the supply closet is apparently just open for student use.
I work at a fairly large university, and “maintenance request” is typically the response to any problem like that.
This would be a perfect opportunity to introduce the Men Rights Activists to DoA. They could burst into the room right now like the Spanish Inquisition.
Jonathan Joss being shot outside his home while protecting his husband after being sent a threatening and distressing package is WHY we need Pride
It's 2025 and people are still being shot and killed for being queer
This is why we march and why we fight
the thing about white liberal Americans is that they'll argue to accept bigots into their tent before accepting the bigots' targets.
the targets that have been on the same side as white liberals from the jump.
John Redcorn was pretty much the only contemporary Native representation I had in comedy growing up. Probably the funniest Native character in cartoon history and a lot of that was on Jonathan Joss' pitch perfect rezzy uncle performance. RIP to one of the best to ever do it.

Because, Walky, that’s what girls are supposed to do. Dudes are intrinsically dumb.
While I don’t agree with what you say I will fight to the death your right to say it.
I’m not sure if the lack of “for” in that comment was intentional or not, and that makes it all the better!
Dude you are Totz plaid!
OK, I got it out of my system now
Hey we have the same avatar
Voltomoe.
I think dudes are usually brought up with low expectations that encourages them to not develop the same higher brain functions expected of ladydudes. Nothing that can’t be fixed.
Walky, is just trying to find stuff to be mad about at this point.
Maybe Walky just isn’t the type to ask people to do things for them, I can relate to that.
Walky: low maintenance or lowest maintenance?
If his maintenance was stock, Dorothy would have offed herself by now.
Just make sure you feed him some McNuggets and he’s good to go.
He doesn’t even require that level of maintenance, he’ll provide his own mcnuggets!
Honestly, I think that’s kinda why Dorothy likes him so much, he’s completely independant, nothing Walky desires is dependant on Dorothy and he’s even shown that he respects her own goals.

New Grav, eh? Where’s it from?
I assume grav is a term for their display image.
It’s one of Hexidecimal’s faces. Hexidecimal being a villain from the CG cartoon Reboot from the 90’s. It’s totally radical.
While I knew it was Hex (loved that show, and saw the creators at Calgary comic con), I was having more fun thinking of it as a very pissed off V.
He’s a low maintenance-maintenance man.
Aaarg! A comma slice followed by a comma splice!
I know. Does that make you want to smother them in their sleep, too, or is that just me?
Er, somehow that wrote out a little harsher than I intended.
I’d only smother them a little bit. Honest! Then, of course, I’d salute Der Grammar Führer.
Too bad your German grammar is a bit off in that. :-p
(“salute” takes an object in the accusative; this should be “den Grammar Führer.”)
Grammar correction across two languages means extra points for Markus!
Me too. I don’t ask people to do things for me, I wallow in my ineptitude until someone offers to help me.
I, think you typed that wrong.
Because you have a spine made out of styrofoam.
If that’s what Dorothy looks for in a guy, she never should have dumped Danny.
No, see, Danny’s spine is made out of paper. She likes her guys spineless, but not THAT spineless.
Also Danny was too much vanilla and not enough caramel.
Okay, Plasma, who is this blonde girl with some kind of hair decoration and what looks like a bag strap?
Clue: Does the series Inspector Gadget ring a bell?
Hi Penny!
There’s only one true Penny.
Greatest Penny of them all.
Looks like Penny is a little more grown up there.
I did have the strangest Inspector Gadget related fanfic idea the other day: Penny, Jade Chan, Miko from Prime and Amy Mizuno/Sailor Mercury move in together and solve mysteries!
Sort of like a younger Golden Girls but with more mysteries and less hot flashes. Still lot of cheesecake though (insert rimshot here)
Ninja’d by Kernanator.
…I ninja’d somebody.
D-Do I get a prize?
Is there a medal or something?
There is a ninja medal. We show it to you, then we take it away.
His was made out of paper.
“Curse you logic, CURSE YOU!”

My first Walkyverse comment. Hello world!
Speaking of Go-Bots, I used to watch that all the time as a kid and my mom taught me a quick and handy spagetti sauce recipe using GOBOTS as a mnemonic:
Garlic
Oregano
Basil
Onion powder (I hate real onions)
Tomatoes
Sauce
Heat on medium, season to taste, and enjoy!
I am going to break your heart, but this isn’t your first Walkyverse comment, because this isn’t the Walkyverse.
…
…
…
FUCK
(it’s still nice to be wherever the hell I am)
He should have known better and taken that 8am class with Dorothy.
Good Walky, go fetch.
Story of my life??
I always feel bad for asking people do help me with things, I wish they’d ask favours in return!
This is Walky angry?
No. This is Walky Angry: http://www.itswalky.com/d/20030720.html
Even though I know that it’s just small and sketchy cuz it’s a background object, I like to imagine the fire escape plans are just crudely drawn in crayon because the school can’t afford to print one out for every dorm room.
Thank you for my new head canon
Seconded.
Of course, it could simply be that administrator in charge of safety isn’t allowed to use anything with a point any more.
Walky? You may want to keep in mind a few of the things she asked you to do was feel her up and go to bed with her. For that you can deal with grabbing lightbulbs and occasionally studying.
For each grabbed boob, he must grab and replace 1 lightbulb over the course of their relationship.
This may not seem like much now, but by the end of the relationship you will be several hundred lightbulbs in debt.
The solution? Get married.
But then he will be changing lightbulbs … and other things (diapers?) …. for the rest of his days…. or longer ….
What if he just rubs them?
Then a genie comes out of her.
Oh dear, hilarious mental image.
It’s been done but don’t try looking for the V***genie unless you … you know …. are prepared for it …..
Ah, fellow Oglaf fans I take it.
I don’t know about N0083rP00F or timemonkey, but no. My mind just went there on its own.
You say “genie”, I say “hygiene malfunction”.
I think the light is finally dawning on Walky on how these womenfolk work.
(BaDum-Tish)
Well of course it is! He isn’t the dimmest bulb in the chandelier you know!
He’s simply radiating anger after being diffused like that, though.
He’s resistant to orders.
He just knows watts up.
Its these little moments that Amplify relationships to the next level.
Unfortunately, that resistance isn’t very conductive to a good relationship.
Eh, who knows how far these two will go. It’s hard to tell in the current situation.
What’s the bright idea making a pun like that?
If he does learn how women work, he could say this experience was illuminating.
A shining example of chivalry.
Brilliant.
So is this Dorothy’s dorm room? Will Walky get to have the makeouts?
Makeout in the dark, now that’s romantic(said the guy who doesn’t even have a girlfriend)
I agree (said the guy who cries himself to sleep every night)
you too, like me, will become the feels.
do not be afraid
Dorothy’s in front, so my guess is yes.
The way she likes it.
Of course! Fixing stuff is inherently sexy.
Dammit Willis why’d you change scenes when things were getting good? D:
How many Walkies does it take to screw in a light bulb?
3.
One to screw in the lightbulb,
One to get Nachitos on his shirt
and A 3rd to get them all Mcnuggets.
Two.
One to screw in the ball, and another to jump out a window.
Woah, bulb, what the hell am I saying?
Screw the ball? I think you are doing sex wrong.
It beats waiting til afterwards; then you’re risking her running off and leaving you with just a shoe.
One
BLAST OFF!
…Wait I got lost seeing the other two count down
Zero.
Walky just fetches the lightbulbs, Dorothy changes them.
-1.
Replacing a light bulb gives you a Walky.
-2
OH GOD THEY’RE MULTIPLYING
It’s a difficult question. First, we have to decide just how small we can shrink our Walkies. Then we have to see if they really feel that way about one another.
~100000000000000. Because they don’t consider it worth the effort of doing themselves, so it can only occur as an incidental result of the lightbulb’s response to their gravitational pull.
“How DARE you use logical arguments! Next thing you’ll want me to be REASONABLE!”
Or worse, you want me to use MATH!
“Your logic does not affect me!”
“Your logic has no power here”
I have no influence in this realm.
There is… logic… in what he says.
OF COURSE! DON’T YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SCIENCE!
because sexy and smart.
I’ve lost track of time. Are we still inside the two-week Danny-will-jump-out-the-window-if-Walky-gets-into-Dorothy’s-pants limit?
I think we might be on week three.
Am I the only one surprised at how Joe of all people is second to last on the poll? I mean, it’s Joe. Does nobody remember him in his underwear?
Sorry, he’s been out-Joed by Jacob.
Looks like this calls for a Joe off!
Close choice between Jacob and Mike. Love Mike my favorite of all time. But Jacob is for eye candy and then some.
Joe thinks well enough of himself that being low on poll won’t bother him.
Logic does not apply to Walky and Dorothy. Most mismatched duo here. But cute.
If I were you, Walky, I’d be more upset about being nicknamed ‘Dangit.’
She’s wearing your stupid cheese shirt, what more do you WANT?
He wants people to appreciate cheese shirts for what they are, and not discriminate against them by calling them stupid.
Who would want anything less?
Dorothy had to ask him to pick a piece of clothing for her … therefore asking her to wear an awesome cheese shirt was still following her orders !
She’s totally using him as a tool !
In case of fire, sit down and draw with crayons.
What do you mean, ‘maybe a step-ladder’? Do you need a step ladder or don’t you? Based on the ceilings in every panel of the comic so far, I’d guess that she needs a step-ladder. Maybe even an ordinary ladder.
Actually, she seems to be looking almost directly upwards at the lightbulb from right in the corner of the room. That suggests that the roof is extremely high, so that even a small angle from the wall translates to a reasonable horizontal difference. I have created a helpful diagram to illustrate this point.
Helpful diagram
Oh no. I have found the single unprofessional component of my diagram. I misspelled ‘reasonable’. I assure you that the error was merely typographical in nature.
Actually there is an other mistake.
You remembered to spot the Feral Dina in the room but misplaced her. Dina ALWAYS hides behind the door, so that when she reveals herself you can’t escape !
Dude, pull yourself together. Focus!
…Diagrams? Faz, is that you?
Perhaps it is Wen?
Adding in “maybe” to an addition to a request is a subconscious attempt to seem less demanding.
Given that the light switch is at shoulder level, maybe she’s just that short.
I actually understand how Walky feels here. As someone who hates asking people to do anything for him, it is exceedingly rare for me to ask favours of anyone. I will find a way to do it myself if at all possible, only turning to others as a last resort. While I don’t mind helping people out if they ask for it, over the course of a long relationship, I could easily see why Walky might start to feel put upon if Dorothy is always asking him to do things while Walky never does likewise.
I’m afraid I don’t understand why him not asking her to do things of course means she has to ask him to do things?
I’m not saying she shouldn’t ask, I’m just saying her explanation doesn’t make sense to me.
Her explanation makes sense if you read Walky’s question. He didn’t ask why she asked him to do things, but why it was always her asking him.
Ah, hm. Yes, that’s technically accurate, if one person never asks anything then even a minimal amount of ‘asking for things’ is ‘doing all the asking’ in the relationship.
I mistook it for meaning she asked for things a LOT when we don’t necessarily know that. Presumably Walky at least feels a bit of that, and I still assume he’s asking because he feels she asks him to do things more often than he thinks is appropriate rather than that he’s pointing out a random factoid concerning the amount of asking in the relationship.
I would buy and read “Dorothy & Walky”.
That is all.
Sort of an odd university, where the students are expected to change their own light bulbs, and where the supply closet is apparently just open for student use.
I work at a fairly large university, and “maintenance request” is typically the response to any problem like that.
We’re expected to change our own lightbulbs at my school, though in fairness we don’t get a ceiling fixture. Just a large standing lamp.
Lightbulbs are available to us at the RAs office.
Is it just me or does it look like the fire escape plans direct you to jump out the window?
Well, natural selection needs all the help it can get nowadays.
It’s actually Sal’s schedule that has winded up pinned to that door for reasons unknown.
This would be a perfect opportunity to introduce the Men Rights Activists to DoA. They could burst into the room right now like the Spanish Inquisition.
NOBODY EXPECTS THE MEN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS INQUISITION. OUR CHIEF WEAPON IS SURPRISE. SURPRISE AND FEAR.
…. and ruthless efficiency…. Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency…and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope….
I think they consider his values feminized. A very misogynistic kind of feminized.
OUR TWO CHIEF WEAPONS ARE SURPRISE, FEAR AND AN UNBELIEVABLY INTRICATE PERSECUTION COMPLEX.
Hehehehe
That answer made no sense at all.
But . . . that DOESN’T make sense. She asks him to do stuff because HE doesn’t ask HER?? What?
That’s just why it seems like he is always on the receiving end. After all she wants him to ask her to do more things.
You may have misread it like I did the first 5 times.
Walky doesn’t ask why she’s always asking him to do things; he’s asking her why it always seems to be her asking the favors in their relationship.
