Does Joe GENUINELY want a compliment from Danny?
Hooray for ho yay!
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…
Yeah, I could just FEEL the “will spawn slash fiction” vibe of this strip.
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’s called Rule 35.
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…
So apparently Danny is incapable of growing facial hair.
And this surprises you?
nice avatar
And chest hair. If I recall, his single chest hair is named George.
In THIS universe, it’s named Fred =D
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
I was expecting full naked. That’s half naked at best.
No. It’s half-dressed.
It could be either. Are you a pessimist or an optimist?
So which is which, in this case?
I could never be a pessimist.
(heh heh heh)
Hurray. More fanservice. Blech.
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?
No bullets left.
Shells, not bullets.
This would be true if it were stated as a shotgun yesterday. Twas just a gun.
Pussy. It’s not like he’s in a speedo or anything, yeish.
Oh suck it up.
You don’t sound very manly too me if you’re that easily thrown off.
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.
Think of the rest of us who have to endure boobies. We get to look at some nice male frontal. We are enjoying it! Oh yes we are enjoying it. It took me a moment to actually remember to read the dang comic, oh yes we are enjoying it.
Good Danny, using the reward method of training. Pants gets you a compliment.
What’s so wrong about sleeping in your undies?
Kay, I wear a shirt unlike Joe, but still.
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.
“Confidence”
Yeah, I’ll be using that euphamism in future. >_>
>> Yeah, I will be too.
That explains far too much about my “little” brother.
…It’s like, I want to know? But at the same time, I don’t want to know. If that makes any sense.
MY younger brother used to walk around the house in his underwear every night. He only stopped… less than half a year ago I think? He’s 13 now. It was horrifying. There are some things you don’t want to know.
…Danny sleeps in socks? Now he reminds me of my grandmother.
And Joe continues to provide fanservice. XD
I think it’s been established that Danny is basically the male Joyce now.
I’m half-waiting for him to surpass her. >>;
Wait. I’m confused. When did Joe’s boxers become briefs?! :psyduck:
He changed to something smaller during the first two panels.
I blame Danny’s various horrible situations on his near-mullet.
Bad things happen to good people with bad mullets.
There’s such a thing as a GOOG mullet!? O_O
http://www.plagueofthemullet.com/images/solid_snake_mullet.jpg
Yes.
That is some gooooooood mullet.
does joe shave his chest hair!?
Ah, good…I’m not the only one who noticed his chest hair looks a LOT like his overnight stubble….
my theory is in the time it took danny to lay up, and get into a position to get down, joe took off the top pair.
whut, u didnt know joe wore 2 pairs of underwear to bed?
This.
Man, jumping out of that bed every morning sucks. Jolts you awake though. This whole comic is too familiar, ugh.
Danny’s just uncomfortable ‘cuz he’s too clothed! If someone strips him, then all will be well.
…
What?
seconded.
Thirded, and fourthed to save time.
Yup, that’ll do it. You have my apprecaoitin.
Haha, nipples!
So I was wrong. Joe still has some mysteries, I suppose.
He actually seems to be recovering pretty well. The last time someone broke up with him, it ended in a car wreck.
Ah, the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry. There is much for Danny to learn….
…your laid joke here
They go awry cause Joe hasn’t had the time to lay them yet.
actually the oft “gae a’glee”
*Obligatory “gae” joke*
I love the original Middle English version of that poem. It is so awesome.
But Mousie, thou are no thy-lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men,
Gang aft agley,
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,
For promis’d joy!
As a person who does not have english as her first language, I can’t understand a single sentence from that poem…
I’m not sure whether that poem is harder or easier to read than chatspeak/1337speak. This worries me.
I’m ready for Danny to get over Dorothy, but I say that having never been in a relationship :\
aaand Attractive Joe is attractive
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 went out with advent of central air. Sure I used to wear them, when I lived in a century old house whose hardwood floors were like grim, icy death in the mornings :P. Danny should consider himself lucky that there are shorts involved.
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 just sleep in my clothes
Joe probably doesn’t sleep in his underwear. He just threw it on getting out of bed to save Danny further embarrassment.
Yeah, Joe does strike me as somone who sleeps “commando”, as it were. That might be why he’s annoyed that Danny is telling him to put on pants… I mean, he already put on underwear… Sheesh!
Aw, come on, Danno, there’s lots of girls in college! There’s even one that you know will stick up for you when times are bad. Sure she’s mysterious and shadowy and not the chatty sort (the love-em-and-leave-em type?), but, you know, she could be yours.
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.
Y’know that in England what Joe’s wearing is considered a pair of pants.
Now, given the history of the Walkyverse, I am imagining Joe in a bow tie.
A bow tie, those “pants”, and nothing else. (The bow tie is attached with magic).
… =D
Fanservice makes Mike ANGRY.
almost naked joe is oddly arousing.
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.)
Theoretically.
It’s Willis. Everyone’s gay eventually.
So many people here make me feel like I’m Joyce, does anybody sleeps in pajamas (and socks) always? D:. I wouldn’t have a problem with nice guys walking almost naked though.
(Yay my first comment!, let’s see my first avatar!)
…oh the irony.
Seriously, Danny?
Dorothy dumps you and suddenly your life has no meaning? :/
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.
O-O;;; True…thats kinda scary to do that, though….I mean, jesus, all that on ONE PERSON?! yikes.
I didn’t say it was smart, just that people do it.
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.
s: You pose a good point, Cratacon…
It’s like as though Joe went and drew his body hair on with pencil…
Holy fanservice Batman! Also, I like the morphing underwear, go from boxers to briefs without changing, very convenient. What is with the socks, who wears socks to bed?
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…
Truth be told, I am a man and I HAVE been genuinely complimented on my pj’s.
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’.
To be fair, Danny is also wearing his underwear to bed, yeah? He’s just wearing boxers instead… and a shirt… and socks.
socks, really?
Honestly, I was exactly in the same position as Danny. Except for me it happened Senior year, not first day of college.
