Honestly, those things are like cockroaches – they’re a nuisance, nobody likes them, and they just won’t die. At least he gets a full desk – the desk chairs at my college had half a desk, maybe less.
I had that happen to me once… the note was someone asking me for help with some homework…
Alternatly, my fourth grade teacher would take the notes away and “read” them by making up the funniest and most random stuff ever.
Sadly now days everyone just texts… I want to build a text interceptor and set it up in a public school and then email the students mothers what they text. That would be funny…
They tried to install a cellphone jammer in a High school because they were sick of that shit, and the students took the faculty to court and won… They had to shut it down… I doubt they would be able to get away with interrupting text messages… Privacy laws and all…
That’s very stupid. Cell phones are just distractions in the classroom, students should be at least trying to focus on the lectures. You’re not allowed to have your cell phones on in class in college (or at some jobs). High schools should have a similar policy (and similar allowances for special circumstances).
Alternatly, my fourth grade teacher would take the notes away and “read” them by making up the funniest and most random stuff ever.>
My eleventh grade homeroom teacher used to do that, only with student overdue notices the school librarian sent him. He’d read the student’s name and then make up funny book titles like Sex and the Single Teenager or I Was a Bay City Roller and Lived to Tell about It.
I used to write notes full of the most disgusting dead-baby jokes I knew (and by 8th grade pre-Internet standards, they were pretty foul) and pass them deliberately across the classroom so that they would get intercepted by my reading teacher. She only tried that once. . . after that she pretty much left my notes alone. I mean, we have to defend personal privacy and liberty, right?
One of my teachers learned early on not to have notes read in front of class after the subject of the note was a student’s abortion. After that, he simply had them discarded.
Just out of curiousity, does cell phone use during tests or exams result in instant failure? The potential for cheating and disrupting other students should justify it.
I know. I’ve yet to meet one of those angry man-hating lesbians. The only man-hating women I’ve met are heterosexual married women who take their irresponsible husbands to represent the whole of the male gender. I’m a lesbian, and I think most men are alright people. I’ve found my view to be pretty common in the lesbian community.
Is it just me or does the last panel not get anyone’s hopes particularly high for the standard of education set in this class? I mean, I knew that when I was six….
Actually I replied to the wrong comment. I was more reacting to the dude below me who thought his condition was somehow relevant to your comment about realizing that stuff when you were six. Basically I was being mean to the disabled guy because I like him, but (metaphorically) my Monkey Master hit you instead!
You may have known that when you were six, but I have Asperger’s, and I was taught to be chivalrous. Hence, I would never do such a thing. “Is the third gender included in this class, Leslie?”
The foundations of social science involve noticing what is common sense knowledge and then learning to go beyond that. First you put all of your basic thoughts about society in a row, then you assemble the tools you’ll need to start working on them
Additionally, Willis. The ad for “The Adventures of White Wolf” is blocking the post button. I had to block the images so i could post my comment. This is not full of win.
You can do that on Firefox too. In fact that’s what I ended up doing. I just figured that Willis would be able to fix the problem for those who weren’t smart enough to go that route.
I think she didn’t care about Walky’s motive, she just wanted the action to be denounced by the teacher. It sounded more like tattling than a desire to understand anyone’s motive.
There are definitely some deviations that are more just “How do I get x character into a college setting?” than “What would this person be like if Aliens, SEMME and JFO never existed?” I believe this is one of them.
How do you know she’s late? She might just be right on time, and on the first day it’s not like she probably has a huge amount of material to get through.
Students usually show up for class early, while professors only arrive shortly before the class starts. Unless they need to set up. Sometimes, not even then. It really varies from class to class and teacher to teacher.
We have already seen Roz as a student, so I assume Robin would be a student too, but then there may be rules that prevent Robin and Leslie from becoming a couple because of that.
Robin doesn’t strike me as someone who’d go on to do post-graduate work, so she might have graduated without making her age difference with Roz too terribly unusual.
And even if she is still a student that doesn’t necessarily mean she can’t be involved with Les, if she’s not HER student.
I kind of am imagining Robin as a graduate student (who is a graduate student because they’re afraid of finding a real job, not because she has a serious interest in a subject).
Just curious, in the comments I noticed a lot of people are claiming that its Danny sitting to Walkys left…yet, when I look at the tags I don’t see his name at all, which is confusing as he has his own character profile so that he CAN be tagged…
Is that solely because of the young mans hair/hairstyle (I am just curious and I sort of suspect that its Danny but you never know…D:) or am I missing something here??
There doesn’t appear to be a ring on any of her fingers, so unless Willis just didn’t draw it, it is fairly safe to say she is either divorced, or has not yet married.
Out of curiosity, does Leslie telling the students they can use her first name just a way of showing that she’s a cool teacher who can relate to her students, or is that sort of thing more common these days? (I went to a Quaker college where everyone from the college president on down was addressed by the first name, so I’m kind of vague on how it’s done elsewhere.)
It’s not terribly UNcommon, and in my (admittedly limited) experience, it’s more common among female teachers than male. But yeah, it does kind of mark her as a personable, cool teacher – again in my experience, the teachers who ask students to call them by their first names tend to interact with the class more.
Wait, Leslie is a teacher in this universe? Why haven’t I read this comic before now and how can I find the words to express how cry beautiful I find this moment to be?
Okay, I have been eyeing this comic with suspicion, unable to decide if I liked it or not. To be honest I’m still not sure.
But this, this one made me laugh. And that is always cool
i’m surprised the Monkey Master toy didn’t do that much damage…although my expectations may have been raised by seeing Walkyverse Monkey Master crush an Alien to death.

Leslie is the greatest teacher ever! Also, awkward seating choice, Walky.
Walky doesn’t look very comfortable. He should switch to a class that has better desk-chairs than those old fold-up ones from the 70’s.
We have those at my high school
We had those in middle school AND high school. And they don’t fold.
Honestly, those things are like cockroaches – they’re a nuisance, nobody likes them, and they just won’t die. At least he gets a full desk – the desk chairs at my college had half a desk, maybe less.
Awesome indeed to see Leslie is just as awesome in DoA as in the main Walkyverse.
Even more awesome, imo. Didn’t even break stride dropping those wisdom bombs.
All Lesbians are awesome, Leslie Bean is more so.
Of coarse Leslie is the teacher in Gender Studies.
So long as she doesn’t have to teach about sex with Ethan.
Yay Leslie! Good to see her being awesome here as well.
So is this the part where Danny snaps and murders Walky with face punching?
Ohh~
I didn’t notice who he was sittting next to.
Yeah he is a goner.
Just saw that myself. I was wondering if anyone else noticed him.
I noticed, but I don’t think it’s Danny… he isn’t tagged, and the hair color is off.
I’m surprised that Danny didn’t enroll in all the same classes as Dorothy, though.
JAWDROPS!
There are gender studies teachers who actually know anything about how men think? O.O
CALLED OUT
The best part about school! =p
“Would you care to read that toy in front of the whole”–no, wait.
I had that happen to me once… the note was someone asking me for help with some homework…

The Mike avatar just made your post infinitely more hilarious.

Just out of curiousity, does cell phone use during tests or exams result in instant failure? The potential for cheating and disrupting other students should justify it.
Pwned.
Props for having the gender studies class taught by a NICE, friendly lesbian. The stereotype angry one is so old. This is much better.
(Well, assuming Leslie is a lesbian in this quantum reality. She still seems nice either way.)
Maybe it’s me, but I imagine Robin and Leslie getting it on already. :/
What are the odds that Robin is still pursuing a career in politics in this ‘verse?
What do politics have to do with sexuality? If Willis ain’t covering the same arcs he did in the Walkyverse, I imagine Robin’s already gay here.
Aah! Recursive Joes!
As davmopedia points out, the fact that conversation exchange is all Joe adds to the fun.
Because Robin is so serious about politics in Shortpacked.
What are the odds you get a Joe icon?
I know. I’ve yet to meet one of those angry man-hating lesbians. The only man-hating women I’ve met are heterosexual married women who take their irresponsible husbands to represent the whole of the male gender. I’m a lesbian, and I think most men are alright people. I’ve found my view to be pretty common in the lesbian community.
As a man, I think you just need to meet more men and you’ll get the hang of hating them in time
Is it just me or does the last panel not get anyone’s hopes particularly high for the standard of education set in this class? I mean, I knew that when I was six….
And, of course, Karma is possessing my Gravatar. Perfect.
BLUH BLUH ASPERGERS
Okay. My mother used to tell my little sister that when boys are mean to her it might be because they like her.
Apparently, this means I have Asperger’s. Huh.
Actually I replied to the wrong comment. I was more reacting to the dude below me who thought his condition was somehow relevant to your comment about realizing that stuff when you were six.

I think it’s a nice ice-breaker and a way to move the conversation along. Plus it shows that she’s a cool teacher and quick on her feet.
This comic is full of win. Yes, she does rock indeed.
Additionally, Willis. The ad for “The Adventures of White Wolf” is blocking the post button. I had to block the images so i could post my comment. This is not full of win.
What browser are you using?
I had this problem too, on firefox. I could only see the button when I made my comment a reply to someone else.
Which version of Firefox? I’m having trouble duplicating it.
EDIT: Ah, I see what you mean. Not on the front page, but on the comments page, near the bottom. Yeah, that’s a problem. Bye bye, ad!
I’m using Firefox 3.6.12 and having the issue. And here I thought it was just being weird.
The problem is fixed now! Woohoo!
Opera> Right Click> “Block Content…”> Left Click on ad> “Done”> Problem solved.
[/smug jerk]
*points out the part where Joebo mentions “I had to block the images so I could post my comment.”*
[/smugger and jerkier.]
You can do that on Firefox too. In fact that’s what I ended up doing. I just figured that Willis would be able to fix the problem for those who weren’t smart enough to go that route.
You’d figure she learned that lesson in grade school…
But she obviously didn’t, or she wouldn’t have come to Leslie with it that way.
I think she didn’t care about Walky’s motive, she just wanted the action to be denounced by the teacher. It sounded more like tattling than a desire to understand anyone’s motive.
Yes Leslie, you do rock. You rock so hard with your FAAAAAACE.
OK, second time I’ve literally laughed out loud at DoA. I am very much enjoying this comic.
oh hay i just realized that doa can also stand for dead or alive. like the bon jovi song. or the videogame about boobies.
or Dead on Arrival which is rather depressing and not funny in the least.
Really, it all depends on who you’re talking to.
The Mike Gravatar on your post really made me laugh xD
… or about.
It stands for Dumb on Arrival, which is more or less what all professors think about us students.
I love how Walky doesn’t seem to know whether to run out of the room or melt in his desk.
Also, I can only begin to ponder what that look from Dorothy could mean.
He’s surrounded by the ex boyfriend and the guy who took dibs on her after she dumped him…. he’d better RUN.
Also: She’s thinking ‘goddamit I just got rid of one obsessed dumbnut and now I get a NEW ONE?!’
Yes. Leslie. Awesome.
I like where this comic is going.
Is the best part of this comic Walky’s expression or Leslie’s awesomeness? I can’t decide, so I’ll just say BOTH!
The look on Joe’s face really seals this comic.
Walky looks more embarrassed that he pooed his pants in public than got caught liking a girl.
Knowing Walky he would anounce that he pooped his pants to the world… and then be PROUD of it…
I totally am loving the direction in which this comic is going. And Leslie, one of my favorite characters!
Dang, it just put a smile on my face instantly.
She rocks.
The worst Gravatar ever. Is she Mary from Roomies or what? ^^’
I got that avatar too and I don’t know who she is. I used to be Joe.
I always thought she was Mary, but I hope she isn’t.
It is Mary, but maybe she’ll be different in DOA?
That is Mary. We haven’t seen too much of her in DoA, all we know for sure is that she’s not as modesty-obsessed as Joyce.
Um, Leslie, a boy just threw a toy at my FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE
So basically the Aliens in the Roomies/It’s Walky/Shortpacked universe somehow kept Leslie from teaching? Interesting.
There are definitely some deviations that are more just “How do I get x character into a college setting?” than “What would this person be like if Aliens, SEMME and JFO never existed?” I believe this is one of them.
….Wait… why is the teacher walking into the room so late? Yeah Leslie. You rock but you were also late to your own class!!
That’s about standard really. I have a single professor who’s actually in the room before the students.
How do you know she’s late? She might just be right on time, and on the first day it’s not like she probably has a huge amount of material to get through.
Students usually show up for class early, while professors only arrive shortly before the class starts. Unless they need to set up. Sometimes, not even then. It really varies from class to class and teacher to teacher.
Leslie is so totally perfect for something like this..in shortpacked. she is full of win with just 3 panels of DoA
Dumbass.
XD
Oh my god, I love Leslie.
Stood up and applauded.
I just did a happy dance in a Cambodian internet cafe! YAY LESLIE
Awesome Leslie is indeed, Awesome. I like how cocky she is in this universe compared to usual. Awesome.
THIS
THIS IS WONDERFUL
GO YOU BEAUTIFUL LESBIAN 8D
Walky, you know what’s red? Your FAAAAAAAAAAAAACE.
-clears throat- What? It’s three in the morning!
Joe’s expression is the best. XD
Ah, so student/teacher relationship to include to the drama of Shortpacked, or was Leslie never a teacher in that universe?
In SP? Leslie was a grocery store cashier before going to work at the toy store.
I hope to see Robin make her appearance soon!
I dunno about throwing toys, but I used to do silly thiongs like rearranging stacks of books while people were looking away while I was in school.
And apparently I have difficulty spelling in the mornings…
Hm…I’ve had plenty of guys throw things at my head (especially in elementary school), and I don’t think they did it because they liked me.
We have already seen Roz as a student, so I assume Robin would be a student too, but then there may be rules that prevent Robin and Leslie from becoming a couple because of that.
Maybe she will fall for Joe again first.
Robin doesn’t strike me as someone who’d go on to do post-graduate work, so she might have graduated without making her age difference with Roz too terribly unusual.
And even if she is still a student that doesn’t necessarily mean she can’t be involved with Les, if she’s not HER student.
I kind of am imagining Robin as a graduate student (who is a graduate student because they’re afraid of finding a real job, not because she has a serious interest in a subject).
Walky’s left handed in this universe? And Joe too, from the looks of it? Huh.
Calling bullshit on there being more than one lefty desk, though. Those things are IMPOSSIBLE to get one’s hands on.
Unless Mayella’s gonna get beat again, does it really matter which hand is dominant for the characters?
It may be that this class arranged to acquire most of the ones that do exist. After all, Leslie does rock.
Since EVERY desk in the place is a left-handed desk, from what we’ve seen, clearly, DoA is in an alternate universe where lefties are the more common.
We’re through the looking glass here, people!
(No, seriously, I mean that quite literally.)
It’s a good thing Walky’s sitting next to Joe. He needs some serious lessons in how to act around the fairer sex.
I almost didn’t recognize Leslie without her tank top.
This is literally the hardest I have laughed at a Walky comic.
30 seconds and she already has more depth then she did in her first story arc in shortpacked.
Well, it’s not hard for her to have more depth than being “random unnamed lesbian that Robin hooked up with”.
Leslie! Yay Leslie! I like Leslie, shes awesome! o:
I wonder if she will end up with Robin in this universe as well or not (Gosh I hope so, they are too cute together!)
Just curious, in the comments I noticed a lot of people are claiming that its Danny sitting to Walkys left…yet, when I look at the tags I don’t see his name at all, which is confusing as he has his own character profile so that he CAN be tagged…
Is that solely because of the young mans hair/hairstyle (I am just curious and I sort of suspect that its Danny but you never know…D:) or am I missing something here??
That smile is glorious.
Yay Lesbian! Ans she understands how guys work! Why can’t all womens be like that?
Also, I love the expression on Walky’s face and Lezzies “I rock.” stance of triumph.
*Leslie, not Lezzie.
Are we sure Leslie’s already out of the closet in the DOA-verse?

Whether or not she is, we’ll find out if Joe decides to get “hot for teacher”
when
Oh, you’re right. When.
Good catch.
I’m confused about the timings here…
And Leslie has just been redefined in my head as the coolest person in the world.
<3 Leslie + That Joke = my favorite DoA strip yet. <3
No way! The Lesbian! Leslie Been is it?
Another wonderful comic by Mr. Willis! WIIGII!!
Leslieee <3
I just thought of something … what is Leslie is still married in DoA?
There doesn’t appear to be a ring on any of her fingers, so unless Willis just didn’t draw it, it is fairly safe to say she is either divorced, or has not yet married.
This is not without precedent; Leslie has been teaching this group already! Unshelved book club
Out of curiosity, does Leslie telling the students they can use her first name just a way of showing that she’s a cool teacher who can relate to her students, or is that sort of thing more common these days? (I went to a Quaker college where everyone from the college president on down was addressed by the first name, so I’m kind of vague on how it’s done elsewhere.)
It’s not terribly UNcommon, and in my (admittedly limited) experience, it’s more common among female teachers than male. But yeah, it does kind of mark her as a personable, cool teacher – again in my experience, the teachers who ask students to call them by their first names tend to interact with the class more.
Yesssss, I am Dina again! *fistpump*
Nobody wants to be called “Ms. Bean.”
It’s also an age thing, teachers that are young or want to seem more youthful will ask their students to call them by theor first names.
Older teachers prefer the more formal titles.
Leslie seems even more awesome here than she is in Shortpacked! I didn’t think it was possible!
AH IT’S LESLIE! WOOOOO!
That you do, Leslie. THAT. YOU. DO.
The perfect gender studies teacher.
Walky’s face in panel 3 is the best. face. ever.
That was a brilliant deduction.
Wait, Leslie is a teacher in this universe? Why haven’t I read this comic before now and how can I find the words to express how cry beautiful I find this moment to be?
Okay, I have been eyeing this comic with suspicion, unable to decide if I liked it or not. To be honest I’m still not sure.
But this, this one made me laugh. And that is always cool
And okay I get it, it’s gender studies and all, but I’m a guy, not a gal with curly hair, come on you automatically generated avatar!
i’m surprised the Monkey Master toy didn’t do that much damage…although my expectations may have been raised by seeing Walkyverse Monkey Master crush an Alien to death.
Anyone else read Leslie’s lines in Ellen degeneres’s voice?
No, Ellen Page‘s!
