    Does Joe GENUINELY want a compliment from Danny?

      Joe didn’t ask for the compliment, though. Danny simply promised one.

      Maybe this was the reason he was so intense with Dorothy– there was something he needed to convince himself of… 🙂

          In fairness, I’m pretty sure that on today’s internet *everything* has a ‘will spawn slash fiction’ vibe to at least some of the audience.

          It’s probably a corollary to Rule 34.

            True enough, but some things invite it more than others. In theory, one could measure it by the amount of fanfiction it actually spawns. Rule 34 means there will be at least one person wanking to it, but I think there will be more slash from today’s strip than, from, say, this strip:

            http://www.dumbingofage.com/2010/comic/book-1/01-move-in-day/loft/

            Rule 34 only says the amount of wanking will be nonzero, but it’s still possible to rate things on how MUCH total wanking they produce.

    It looks like Joe has the ability to shrink his underwear to make him look sexier. This skill must come in very handy for him. I know it’s the angle, but still…

      It takes a while for some people. I’m genuinely shocked that I hadn’t grown true facial hair up until now, and it’s still partially peach fuzz with some dark and I’m 22.

      I know how Danny feels, my g/f broke up with me just a few months ago. Hurts. Best friend of 15 years

    In all fairness, we’ve seen Robin in her undies plenty. It’s kind of nice Willis is doing something for his cock-loving fans.

    In other news, Joe either has obscenely tight underwear or…erm…

    Remember the shotgun that was mentioned yesterday? You guys still have that, or did you restock on brain bleach?

        I am not, in fact, that thrown off, and am merely reacting this way for comedic effect. I’m sorry if I offended anyone but keep in mind that I did mention that it’s nice that fans of the other gender are getting some eye-candy, it’s just not my thing personally.

      I think it’s moreso that he’s walking around in only them. Also, I think Danny has more of a sense of modesty than Joe.

      On the other hand, he may just be intimidated by Joe’s confidence.

      Given that it’s only been a full day and night since Dorothy broke up with him and the circumstances of their relationship, I highly doubt that Danny will get over her too soon. I’m not saying that he’ll always be like he is right now, but he’s going to need time to recover.

      Pajamas are still handy in wintertime when your bed is next to the window because that’s the only place it fits. Summertime is sleeping naked time; wintertime is t-shirt and long-johns and socks time.

    I personally sleep in PJ bottoms and a t-shirt myself.

    I could see Joe maybe wearing PJ bottoms… maybe… but no way in hell is he ever going to wear a PJ-top jacket Danny. Even on girls it looks a bit odd to me sometimes. (Some can pull it off though, I’m just not one of them.)**

    But you secretly like it Danny-boy according to the rules of shipping so whatever.

    Who is Joe expected a compliment from regarding his underwear? Danny? Oh, Joe… so you really have been over-compensating all this time, and just wanted some Danny Man-love… Tell us Joe, how’s the closet? Enough room in there with all your pretty-pretty shoes?
    (And before that one person reads this and starts getting antsy, obviously I’m joking and know he’s not actually gay.)

    I understand being dumped sucks, dude, but you still have a freaking purpose in life.

      When you structure your life around one person, losing them to any situation could rob your life of meaning to you. He could get over it in a day, or in a year, but until he finds a way to replace the lost meaning, he doesn’t have one.

      What meaning does Danny have outside of Dorothy? None; as was said, he structured his entire life around her. His plans for the future, his education, his social life… sure, he still has Joe, but Joe has proven time and time again that he won’t be there for Danny when the guy needs a friend. So not only has he lost meaning in everything he’s done, he’s also lost the only person he had for emotional support. That’s hard to recover from.

      People with circulation that leaves the feet cold in the morning, or who would prefer to have some immediate insulation against a cold floor if they should have the need to rush to the toilet in the wee hours.

      Now why the folks with poor circulation don’t also wear gloves or a tocque to bed is a question I can’t answer.

        Because wearing gloves to bed makes doing certain fun things that suddenly take your fancy rather awkward. And whats a tocque when it’s at home? I thought you meant a Torc for a brief moment, but that wouldn’t exactly be warm…

    Just a bit of explanation for those who don’t get it: sometimes square-cut boxer-briefs ride up a bit in the front and they look like briefs. This is actually a quite accurate representation from both sides. Just sayin’.

You Can’t Even Watch A Movie Anymore Without Seeing Some Theme Explored
I’ve loved movies ever since I was a little kid. Just stepping into that dark theater, with the smell of fresh popcorn, was like being transported to a whole other world. It used to be so magical. But now I’m thinking about boycotting movies altogether. Why? Because I can’t seem to watch one anymore without […]

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."

Who can forget the Swiss-Austrian Union, or its famous capital - Istanbul.
AI generated ad by a company called Travello showing the 10 most visited cities in Europe, except the cities are hilariously poorly placed. London is in Wales, Paris is in Ireland, Rome is in France, Rom (yes like Rome but without an E) is in Spain, Barcelona is in Morocco, Prague is in Germany, Vienna is in Italy, Istanbul is in Austria, Milan is in Libya, and Antalya is correctly shown as in Turkey but is in the wrong place. Also a few of the borders like Switzerland and Austria or Hungary and Slovenia are missing.

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

Four panel comic by Brandon Reese titled Animal Crackers.  In each panel Groucho Marx is speaking.

1 - One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas 
2 - How I worked up the courage to kill a living thing I'll never know.
3 - (silent)
4 - They mourn their dead, as we do.
