She sounds a bit like the old one (well, the old one didn’t really say Jesus as much). Remember when she was discussing their future kids’ names with Danny?
Fundamentalist Christians tend to try to figure out just how “Christian” others who say they’re Christian are. At least that’s how the fundies I used to work with were. I recited the Niece Creed at them once during break, it was fun…
My four nieces would never forgive me if I attempted to disbelieve in them, and I would be sad to lose touch with them as well. Biased as I am, how could I not be impressed with children that tell bedtime stories to their books?
I don’t believe in extended families at all, but rather that we all have the capacity to be at least friends. Nieces? Nephews? Y’all some crazy fundies.
That’s still not how you spell it. It’s Nicene creed. And I’ve done that too. It was excellent revenge for that time when I went to a Southern Baptist summer camp and was warned not ot admit I was Catholic.
Perhaps like original Walkyverse Joyce, DoA Joyce has access to hammerspace. Instead of a jetpack and BFG, she keeps her husband-hunting equipment there.
You jackasses make me so glad I turned off the underline links feature on my browser. I managed to make it to the end of the comment string and was warned! Ha! I have prevailed over the addictive evil that shall not be spoken!
I’m guessing no one ever explained that most guys do not find the idea of an indepth survey exactly “romantic” to Joyce huh?
The scary thing is, the survey was probably 100% her idea. I can just see her now explaining to her friends “What kind of man WOULDN’T want to answer this? I’ll be engaged by Fall Break!”
So what’s it going to be Joe? Put up with all this in the off-chance she MIGHT sleep with you, or see if you can tag out with Danny?
This the guy who actually asked his best friend if he could have sex with his soon-to-be-ex-girlfriend before the couple even broke up. Do you honestly think he won’t have any problem with passing off the crazy to someone else to make his own attempt at getting laid easier?
Joe could see the writing on the wall months before Danny. Hell, maybe he’d even talked in confidence with Dorothy beforehand to be prepared to deal with what Danny’d become. And every guy knows that once it’s over, she’s fair game again! Right guys? …Guys?
The Bro Code dictates you do not go after that ex-girlfriend of your bro, especially not immediately after the break-up and when they have not yet gotten over the break-up.
Regardless of the writing on the wall, it was an uber-douche move on Joe’s part. And the previous comic has shown that Joe and Dorothy only recently talked about dealing with Danny after the break-up.
My boyfriend explained to me yesterday, “Do not stick your dick in crazy.” I would hope that, at the very least, he finds a way to extricate himself from the situation without passing Danny the buck.
[it should be noted he told me this rule while reading FML aloud to me]
You know, not sticking it in the crazy is one of those things that gets *said* a lot, much like girls have “Don’t date assholes.” Yet in the end, there seems to be something terribly appealing about each archetype, ’cause everyone does it anyway.
(Spoken as a crazy person dating an asshole, so not much room to talk. But hey, it’s fun.
I’ve noticed the crazies and the assholes tend to bring out the crazy and the asshole in each other. I base this on personal experience. When I was dating an asshole, I was crazy. I’m dating a nice guy, and I’m not crazy.
This reminds me of (sorry, Dave, I know you don’t like this sitcom) the long questionnaires Sheldon of The Big Bang Theory has made people answer, such as in the flashback “how they met” episode when Leonard saw him about sharing the apartment.
H.R.M. would be His/Her Royal Majesty, however, what Joyce did up there was “hrm” which is a noise made in the throught when thinking, like “hmm” but with a slight negative or disapproving tonality.
Joyce is awesome. She’s totally my second favorite character. She’d be my fav if she wasn’t so religious. v.v Alas. But that happens in real life too. XD
I’m a little impressed. I would’ve thought that Joe not being Christian would have ended the questionnaire immediately. Then again, she is the best-socialized of her whole homeschool group…
I know me too, thought then again she probably thinks she could convert him eventually.
Strangely there used to be a big programme for that in America (and… maybe here too) I hear, about christians delibrately dating secular people to convert them once. Still probably happens, but it was actually an idea which was spread among some sects of christianity as a good idea.
But then they had to stop because a lot of the christians deconverted instead rather than convert.
It doesn’t seem to ever have been a problem with her if the other person didn’t believe the same as she did(may be wrong on that, I’m not able to get a J&W subscription). She mostly wants the other person to respect her choice in faith.
That thing is at least three pages long and she hasn’t flipped past the first page. How small is the print that she has fifteen sections on the first page?
He was Jewish in It’s Walky! He even said it a few times over. However, the only one I can think of immediately is his visit to the Brown house. “Go, Jews for Jesus!”
Hey, she’s doing them both a favor! Only a man willing to put up with such a questionnaire would be the man for her, and she’s letting him know she’s insane right up front. Wish the Jewish guy I dated was helpful enough to let me know he was insane right up front.
For some reason, I started reading your second sentence as: “Only one man would put up with so many questions…” in the voice of that guy who used to do all movie trailers of that sort.
i imagine him running up to danny and sarah, tagging him and yelling something, and throwing this girl in his arms while runnign off w/sarah for some rehab
Did the clipboard checklist evolve in Joyce’s mind as she vicariously suffered through her girlfriends’ breakups, or did she get genuine ditto/mimeograph/PDFs from her church youth group, or did her parents or other adult relatives give her the idea.
And zuche — I don’t think Joe needs the warning. He’s already ready to take off like a rocket.
Actually, for some reason, I had an ex who did this exact kind of questions to any prospect she met. Also she asked about plans for the future, family background (you had to be from a very respectable family) and current income. She didn’t ask those questions to me for some reason, though.

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."

Hawley dismisses Trump lining his pockets with his memecoin: "Listen, I think nobody believes that Donald Trump can be bought. I mean, what does Donald Trump need more money for?"
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
confirming that the reason there's been no Galaxy Version female characters in Blokees until now is that they felt they needed to make Round Lady Thighs For Ladies

Regret if I’ve ever seen it.
Two can ask that question, Joe! =D
I mean, hell of a set-up…
HAHA! Go Joyce! Making sure everything’s in order first.
Well, at least she’s prepared.
Was she a girl scout?
I have a questionaire too for first dates. And also psychological tests. Seriously! But it never worked out.
i still think this will work out. JOE AND JOYCE will prevail.
Exactly, they’ll just be one of those couples that has to take a while to be ready for each other, and it’ll be all worth it in the end.
i believe 1 of 2 things will happen
1. joe will give up & move on to another lady
or
2.joe will lie & still try to get her to go to bed with him lol
Joe is already terribly frightened, you can just see it in his eyes.
JoeXJoyce? More like Joeyce!
I realy dislike this joyce.
She sounds a bit like the old one (well, the old one didn’t really say Jesus as much). Remember when she was discussing their future kids’ names with Danny?
God damit why is my avatar rachael!!!
Because nobody knows who you are or what you’re really doing here.
BURN!
đ_đ
Please note that the views of the person above me are not representative of the general opinion on these forums in any shape or form.
And usually the realization of a terrible mistake comes in the morning. Joe should be happy, look at all the time he hasn’t wasted!
But he misses out on all the fun stuff this way.
I LOVE JOYCE
15 questions just to learn what religion he is? That’s kind of excessive. Then again, that clipboard might be longer than any of us suspect.
Fundamentalist Christians tend to try to figure out just how “Christian” others who say they’re Christian are. At least that’s how the fundies I used to work with were. I recited the Niece Creed at them once during break, it was fun…
The Niece Creed? ‘We believe in one little girl, daughter of my sibling, creator of messes, visible and invisible’?
Sorry cold meds make me bad at spelling.
That is a creed I could believe in.
I don’t believe in nieces. I believe that we have the same relatives, and they are welcome at family barbecues, but they are not related to me.
My four nieces would never forgive me if I attempted to disbelieve in them, and I would be sad to lose touch with them as well. Biased as I am, how could I not be impressed with children that tell bedtime stories to their books?
Oh, gentiles…oy vey…I’ll say you’re Orthodox and I’m Reformed.
I don’t believe in extended families at all, but rather that we all have the capacity to be at least friends. Nieces? Nephews? Y’all some crazy fundies.
I guess that’s useful for getting dates
Do you mean the Nicean creed?
And seconded on the “how Christian art thou” questions. Oy veh.
The correct answer to that question is, “He wants me to keep that between us.”
That’s still not how you spell it. It’s Nicene creed. And I’ve done that too. It was excellent revenge for that time when I went to a Southern Baptist summer camp and was warned not ot admit I was Catholic.
To be fair, if all the people who claimed to be Christians actually acted like Christians, there’d be no need for such a checklist.
Sections, not questions. This is an exam you have to study for, and still might fail.
Not fifteen questions, fifteen sections.
Be afraid Joe… be very afraid
“The next fifteen sections” Love it!
So much for ‘not as crazy as Walkyverse’ Joyce.
Least it’s a different kind of crazy. And at least she hasn’t stalked anyone to their dorms (that we’re aware of)
Give her time.
I love Joyce. If only it were that easy to check the religious/moral beliefs of prospective partners.
Why isn’t it? I think that’s normal first date (or sooner) material if the subject is important to you.
Joe believes in 90%, so long as snuggling and Joeing are synonyms.
Cuddling…with his penis.
er, “snuggling”
Yeah, he’d mistake the other word for “cudding” and get the wrong idea entirely.
puggling? pudding? pengling?
Piddling?
… No, that’s something else.
Does involve Joe’s penis, though.
…
I wonder if he’s into that.
…
Yeah, I need the brain bleach, now…
Sorry, all out. I’ve got a shotgun if you’d like.
Awww! Snuggling! I should have a questionnaire…
not unless you are planning to be celibate for all of eternity
Where did she hide the clipboard?
The same place Clark Kent hides his glasses and hair-gel probably.
Perhaps like original Walkyverse Joyce, DoA Joyce has access to hammerspace. Instead of a jetpack and BFG, she keeps her husband-hunting equipment there.

Once again, this kind of goes against him setting Danny up with someone. Passing off the crazy chick is not cool wingman material.

No, the rule is “Crazy chicks usually lead to awesome sex, but bring tons of baggage. They are not girlfriend/wife material.”
This reminds me of (sorry, Dave, I know you don’t like this sitcom) the long questionnaires Sheldon of The Big Bang Theory has made people answer, such as in the flashback “how they met” episode when Leonard saw him about sharing the apartment.
And that’s why it’s her first date.
Agreed, although it will be her last with Joe.
After this, Joe will hit on a cheerleader off-camera.
Man, he’s going to Joe Billie?
Or is Billie gonna Billie Joe?
Or is Billie gonna Joe Joe?
… wait, this isn’t that kind of comic. Right.
“Oh no! Billie Joe!”
Billie Joe is not my lover.
Billie Joe…now that’s a fire that I’d like to see started.
She’s gonna jump off the Tallahatchie Bridge?
Buwahahahahahha!
This couple wont work, its goig to be interesting the development of their relationship though, also what H.R.M means?
H.R.M. would be His/Her Royal Majesty, however, what Joyce did up there was “hrm” which is a noise made in the throught when thinking, like “hmm” but with a slight negative or disapproving tonality.
err, “throat” hrm..
“its going to be interesting to see the development……” my apologies for the typos, kinda sleepy right now
I wonder if having a snobby brit as your avatar prompted you to correct your spelling.
Joyce is awesome. She’s totally my second favorite character. She’d be my fav if she wasn’t so religious. v.v Alas. But that happens in real life too. XD
I’m a little impressed. I would’ve thought that Joe not being Christian would have ended the questionnaire immediately. Then again, she is the best-socialized of her whole homeschool group…
I agree, the second he said that i thought was over. i guess christian home-school socialization is better than i thought.
Don’t worry, she’ll convert him.
I know me too, thought then again she probably thinks she could convert him eventually.
Strangely there used to be a big programme for that in America (and… maybe here too) I hear, about christians delibrately dating secular people to convert them once. Still probably happens, but it was actually an idea which was spread among some sects of christianity as a good idea.

Woopsie.
It doesn’t seem to ever have been a problem with her if the other person didn’t believe the same as she did(may be wrong on that, I’m not able to get a J&W subscription). She mostly wants the other person to respect her choice in faith.
I hope hope HOPE that these two stay together! I loved the Joe/Joyce pairing in Walky (even more than Joyce/Walky).
What hath God wrought?
Flaming swords, mostly.
Your mom, for a nickel. (Figure while I have the Mike avatar temporarily, better put it to good use.)
Well damn, he overpaid.
wow, i think that was diffused quickly XD
Oh yeah! This Joyce may be naive, but she isn’t exactly innocent. Or should that be the other way around>
either way she knows how to weed them out REAL good >_>;;
…how long is each section?
And dang, Joyce is adorable!
Too soon too fast, don’tcha think Joyce? I mean, religion, in a way, brought me and my crush together as pals, but jeeeez…
Joes taking this better than I thought he would O: (Poor joyce…she’s gonna find out the hard way Joe is polygamous…)
That thing is at least three pages long and she hasn’t flipped past the first page. How small is the print that she has fifteen sections on the first page?
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally small print.
or she memorized the questions & is just using the clipboard for writing his answers down :O
It’s on a microfiche. That’s just Volumes 1-4. There’s more.
I love that I’m still Billy, it makes all my comments seem better. Watch it change on Monday now that I’ve said this.
I could see Joyce memorizing this, since that small of a print would probably require someone of 20/20 sight needing glasses to read it.
Ah, so Joe is Jewish, not German.
Now I’m anticipating the moment he meets a certain other Jewish Transformers fan.
Could be a German Jew. But yeah, unlike it seems the entire rest of the commenters, I wasn’t convinced he was Jewish until he outright said it.
He was Jewish in It’s Walky! He even said it a few times over. However, the only one I can think of immediately is his visit to the Brown house. “Go, Jews for Jesus!”
Joe was based on my best friend from elementary school who was Jewish, so Joe has always been Jewish.
Jews for Jesus. Booyah!
You had a best friend in elementary school who was a sex maniac?
Elementary School Sex Maniac: Coming this Fall on Fox.
She has put some thought into this…that is so scary. Run Joe! She is not worth Joe’ing!
Hey, she’s doing them both a favor! Only a man willing to put up with such a questionnaire would be the man for her, and she’s letting him know she’s insane right up front. Wish the Jewish guy I dated was helpful enough to let me know he was insane right up front.
For some reason, I started reading your second sentence as: “Only one man would put up with so many questions…” in the voice of that guy who used to do all movie trailers of that sort.
That’s what SHE said!
it took this long for someone to say that? wow
I was kind of surprised myself.
i imagine him running up to danny and sarah, tagging him and yelling something, and throwing this girl in his arms while runnign off w/sarah for some rehab
Sheesh, did Joyce print off the eHarmony questionnaire?
Nope, there’s a fundy-Christian version of the dating sites. She printed off (and augmented) theirs.
Run, Joe, run!
Did the clipboard checklist evolve in Joyce’s mind as she vicariously suffered through her girlfriends’ breakups, or did she get genuine ditto/mimeograph/PDFs from her church youth group, or did her parents or other adult relatives give her the idea.
And zuche — I don’t think Joe needs the warning. He’s already ready to take off like a rocket.
But I seldom get a chance to refer to that old show! It was like The Fugitive combined with The Littlest Hobo, with a bit of A-Team vibe thrown in.
…This is not to say it was a very good show. I was seven when I last saw it.
OK — TV show reference. I apologize for my earlier remark. Off to Google-land…..
I have to admit, if a woman really did this to me, I would be compelled to see it to the end; just because.
I could see following it to the end. That’s at least polite. I could also see not going on a date afterward.
Joe is realizing that he messed up big time.
Ok, I have to ask, what does HRM mean? I can’ t figure it out.
Hmm? Hrm? Hurr?
If you don’t get it from Jen’s post, see my post above
I admit, when I first saw this, I half-expected two little shoulder-devils to pop up next to Joe. Screaming.
I don’t think I could see them being two little devils(or a devil and an angel). It seems more likely that they would be different fetishes.
I wonder if there’ll be a pdf of that list, and how much will we see on Monday
Actually, for some reason, I had an ex who did this exact kind of questions to any prospect she met. Also she asked about plans for the future, family background (you had to be from a very respectable family) and current income. She didn’t ask those questions to me for some reason, though.
What’s wrong with knowing what you’re buying?
Also, this is why online dating services don’t work.
I really liked this follow-up on the previous strip. I wonder if Joyce will ever use her catchphrase in this continuity; you know the one.
I know way too many married people who met via online dating services (and the Internet) to agree that online dating services don’t work.
Oh, the internet, I’ll give you. But I do wonder how many percent success rate dating services have. (Then again, maybe it’s just prejudice…)
Please don’t let him get past the screening process please don’t let him get past the screening process please don’t let him get past the screening process
All I have to say is… GO JEWS!
Joe’s getting thrown off his game….
RUN JOE RUN WHILE YOU CAN.
