Comics are currently drawn and uploaded through:
Well, I think the direction is towards Porn Lord Joyce, so… I kinda hope it is. If Joyce wrote a Slipshine comic in character, do you think Willis would draw it for us? Porn-ception.
I guess it depends on if Joyce draws herself or not. Considering Joyce’s new penis drawing expertise, it might be more Ethan-centric. Possibly even that Ethan/Danny porn we were anticipating.
That is part of the logic with (straight/bi) ladies who think male gay porn is hot and (straight/bi) guys who think lesbian porn is hot, sometimes–if one individual of the appropriate gender is hot, multiple people of the appropriate gender making out is exponentially hotter!
That is nightmarish.
Without any writing utensils, the only way he could draw inside his mom were if he were carving into the inner flesh of her uterus.
I mean, unless he was just drawing dicks in the “air”.
Mike and Dina are always there? If this is true across universes–and I can’t see how they could always be there unless they’re always everywhere–that casts certain key Walkyverse events in a new light . . .
Oh Joyce, your Rebel training is almost complete, and the fact that you did this means that your more of a asshole prankster then Carla its funny really. ” You’ve come far grasshopper. “
Since this is Joyce we’re talking about the thought of her in bed scares me now, even if I haven’t thought about it up until now… Actually – no no I haven’t.
Which seems excessive considering all the topical porn on Wikipedia alone.
It also makes you wonder what kind of person googles porn for reference before they hit upon the idea of googling ways to clean permanent marker off whiteboards.
Or what kind of person learns to draw amazing anatomy within an hour, but doesn’t get creative with simple shapes.
That kind of person has a great future ahead of her.
Can’t blame her, last year if you told me Joyce vandalised an entire floor of a campus wing by drawing nothing but dicks while looking at porn I would have called bullshit.
I Don’t know, all I do know is that all this pent up sexual frustration between those two will probably back up until it unloads into the other universe ( you know the other comic).
2) Steals time with Dorothy which can make her envious sometimes.
3) Is insensitive to her feelings.
4) Doesn’t understand her point of view, just forces in his own e.g. that her youth pastor should die in a fire for teaching her to use depression as an opportunity to preach about God’s love instead of trying to teach her why he thinks her way of thinking is wrong.
Walky’s kind of a dick in general but he’s been extra rude to Joyce pretty much every time they’ve had a conversation. He’s insulted her, her beliefs, her parents, her pastor, her goals (despite him only being there in the first place because his parents made him), her opinions, keeps calling her friendship with Dorothy a display of homosexual lust, insults her right in front of her, only apologises because Dorothy makes him and there’s his sarcastic dismissal of literally anything he doesn’t agree with, which is almost everything Joyce ever says. She really has no reason at all to like him.
Eh, not really. My gf and I are just kinda… average shmoes who enjoy sleeping in on Sunday more than getting up stupid early to go sing creepily in unison with a buncha other folks.
THAT’s what you find creepy about going to church? Singing together as a group, a time honored tradition that binds societies together and makes beautiful music?
I mean, there is a lot to find creepy about going to church, but the singing is a weird choice.
It’s probably the songs themselves that make the singing in unison creepy. <_< And it is a bit creepy when you think of it. Instead of a popular song, they're singing ancient mantras passed along for at least 1000 years. Unless we're talking contemporary Christian music; that's 100x worse than hearing people sing the Lord's Prayer.
Meh. I was raised non-religious, but for some reason my parents thought sending me to the Christian kindergarten was a good idea. (The public, non-religious one wasn’t even farther away or anything.)
Anyway, first thing on the first day, they all gather around and start singing songs I had never heard. It was creepy as hell. Fortunately my folks picked up on how I felt and switched me over to the normal place, and sanity resumed.
Joyce is a mischievous bisexual prankster just waiting to get out. One who loves Jesus. Dye her hair red and give her a bow and she’s Leliana from Dragon Age.
As for the poll, the current results reflect my own feelings. Technically I think it’s a web of character stories, but if I had to choose a character suited closest to the term ‘main character’, it would be Joyce. I feel she has more ties to the other characters than anyone else so far..or she just seems to interact more with the other characters.
Another good question would be who do you think are the major characters vs minor? Like every week a new person, – “Joyce, Major or Minor? Joe Major or Minor? Sal, Major or Minor? Mike, Major or Minor?” I’d say Major, Minor, Minor, Minor respectively, but I have a feeling it could go either way for Mike and overwhelmingly Major for Sal. Who knows though, right?
Happy Anniversary, Willis. Hope it (stays) smooth sailing from here on out.
20 years in the future, Joyce’s pornographic asides starring her popular webcomic characters are the most popular strips on “Insert Fake Slipshine Name Here”
Happy Anniversary! And thank you for all the years of wonderful comics! Your comics have really made me think about the characters in my own writing and whether or not I’m doing justice to them. There’s so much life in each of them, and it really sets the bar high for the rest of us!
Congrats on marrying a cool lady who’s okay with you drawing awesome porn comics!
Once Joyce is comfortable with drawing dicks, she may actually want to draw out a real one, then another, then another. She can become the Porn Lord of the Flies.
You know, I dont know why, but I imagine between the last two panels that Joyce has gotten so good at drawing dicks, she can do it without looking, and at amazing speed, like it’s now second nature or something.
Now: I think it’s plausible for Danny and/or Ethan to have an erotic dream about each other. That can speed up a Slipshine since it will be several years before they’re likely to interact enough for them actually to do anything. And since he just had enjoyable sexytimes* with Amazi-Girl, this will confuse Danny even more!
*I’m assuming. I haven’t been around a non-work computer long enough to log into Slipshine. Damn/Bless you, NSFW content!
I would prefer that any slipshines take place in the real world
not only can wet dreams get really weird (see: whatever the fuck joyce’s thing was), but it’ll lose its enotional weight as well, since slipshines are part of the story, not just mindless, irrelevant fucking
Sierra doesn’t believe Joyce would ever draw a bunch of penises, Joyce is offended that Sierra finds it laughable and redraws the penis she just washed off.
The last few pages spelled it out. She drew one as a joke, Mike had switched the markers so it was permanent, so she panicked and drew them on everyone’s door so nobody could tell she had done it or who had been first.
When confronted by Amazi-Girl and accused of being the perp, Joyce made reference to the incident when she got roofied and Amazi-Girl’s grandstanding allowed the sleazeball to make his escape. So could someone please explain to me just why the trauma of the attempted date-rape compelled Joyce to draw phalluses on the whiteboards?
Drawing the dongs was merely Joyce panicing when she realised the first one she drew wouldn’t come off. Her breakdown when confronted about it was her flashing back to the near-rape trauma. Amazi-Girl is cutting her some slack because she understands what it’s like to panic and do something stupid.
(And I love that Amber appears to be helping Joyce de-dongify the dorm [as opposed to just lending her the rubbing alcohol and escaping]. They’re bonding.)
I think Joyce is secretly pretty proud of her new ability to draw dongs. After all, it is a REBEL thing to do.
Also, I can’t help reading this strip as the closing act to a monster movie. “The DingDong bandit is gone and Joyce is once again her normal, wholesome self… OR IS SHE??? DunDunDuuuuuun.”
Just noticed something. After their first math class, Walky and Joyce are on pretty amiable terms. Then, Joyce remarks: “It’s uphill from here.”
You can read it here:
I dunno dude, while it may have been an inside joke, im pretty sure Joyce just meant that the class they were heading to in that strip was up a hill from that point on.
She was calling Becky! Either Becky picked up and listened to the whole exchange between Joyce and Amazi-Girl or the voice mail recorded the whole thing!
today in #9chickweedlane i learned we have to be shown children learning and relearning what sex is, for Reasons, even though they already clearly know and have prepared nuanced questions about it!
also that Gran must hate, if she's still alive, how Old Juliette is the same but with gray hair
one of my favorite things is when a commenter explodes WHEN DO THESE CHARACTERS GET THERAPY but directed towards a character who canonically has a regular therapist

btw if you're one of those rando bluesky weirdos who doesn't know me but sees me in the wild being sarcastic and don't know i'm being sarcastic because you haven't taken like 30 seconds to, like, maybe look at my user profile or something, keep walking, you're not going to score internet points here

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."

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

I really hope this isn’t going in the direction I think it’s going. Things would become awkward. Fast.
joyce becoming a supervillain?
Yeah, but she needs a better title than the Whiteboard Dong Bandit.
Like the Phallustrator.
I vote for Phallacious D.
Dicktator
Cock-a-Doodler-Doo.
Oh, wait, I think that’s just that guy everyone in Scooby’s family wants to forget.
Sorry, guys, Willis has already given us her super-villain name – Porn Lord.
(Yes, I know she’s a Lady – take it up with Willis.)
what does scrappy doo have to do with this?
I honestly didn’t think there was a better name than Whiteboard Dingdong Bandit. However, there are some great names listed.
My favorite is Dicktator.
Phallacious Crumb?
Just imagine the laughter.
Phallibuster
Nah, that’s what you call a senator taking his dick out while he has the floor.
The Cockblocker?
The Cockblockbuster?
“Greetings fan-boys and fan-girls, I’m the Cockblockbuster”
Everyone’s gotta start somewhere.
The Cockfiend
Joyce becoming Willis.
Isn’t Joyce, like, a kind of an autobiographical character?
You think Joyce will draw even MORE WEINERS just to prove she’s the real Ding-Dong Bandit?
Will the real Dong Bandit please stand up?
Please stand up?
Please stand up?
Joyce developing a taste for creating risque artwork?
Joyce of Finland
I think you just broke the universe a little bit.
For a value of “broke” nearing “perfected”.
DING DONG JOYCE FOREVER
Joyclethorpe?
But only ever in the medium of whiteboards and permanent markers.
Well, I think the direction is towards Porn Lord Joyce, so… I kinda hope it is. If Joyce wrote a Slipshine comic in character, do you think Willis would draw it for us? Porn-ception.
Joyce Performs A Motorboat On A Motorcycle?
I guess it depends on if Joyce draws herself or not. Considering Joyce’s new penis drawing expertise, it might be more Ethan-centric. Possibly even that Ethan/Danny porn we were anticipating.
too sinful, I would think
“I’m a good CHRISTIAN girl, who, if I ever were to have naughty thoughts, would have them only about boys.”
I think that’s how the line went.
That is part of the logic with (straight/bi) ladies who think male gay porn is hot and (straight/bi) guys who think lesbian porn is hot, sometimes–if one individual of the appropriate gender is hot, multiple people of the appropriate gender making out is exponentially hotter!
Joyce Illustrates a Sodomy
Somehow, I can picture Iroh saying that (off screen, of course, this was a children’s show), with the exact expression depicted.
Although, if Joyce does draw herself motorboating someone, I think it should be Dorothy. I mean, she is a friend of Dorothy after all.
Nah. Sal’s bike.
She’s bikesexual
AUTOSEXUAL LOLOL
[what car would Sal have?]
a camaro or corvette more than likely…if she’s luck maybe a mustang?
If she’s like my lady college-mates, a Trans Am
If she’s like my lady college-mates, a Trans Am (red)
Hot transport-on-transport action!
I really hope it is.
Yes, it’s going in the direction of Joyce taking on an art class with her other classes, and ends up majoring in Art.
She is going to make a lot of people on the internet very happy one day.
This is exactly how Mike got his start, I’m sure.
He was drawing dicks inside his mom before he was born.
Mike was drawing ducks inside YOUR mom before he was born
ducks?
SINISTER DUCKS.
Oh, that’s a link, in case it’s not obvious.
despite all appearances to the contrary, the ducks were innocent
Like the saying goes: If it walks like a dick and talks like a dick… you really should get your dick checked.
Now I’m visualising a foetus with a texta drawing on any penis foolish enough to stick itself inside his mum.
That is nightmarish.
Without any writing utensils, the only way he could draw inside his mom were if he were carving into the inner flesh of her uterus.
I mean, unless he was just drawing dicks in the “air”.
Fetus Mike’s hands weren’t just fists, they were both forming the “middle finger” gesture.
For a nickel.
I can see it now the mike version of Joyce.
Mike got his start eons before the big bang. He was around long before time started and he’ll be around long after it ends.
Before the beginning of time there was Mike and he was a Dick.
Mike did the Big Bang with your mom. For a primordial nickel.
Mike and Dina are always there? If this is true across universes–and I can’t see how they could always be there unless they’re always everywhere–that casts certain key Walkyverse events in a new light . . .
To them that’s basically photo-realistic
Congratulations Joyce, you have committed the perfect crime.
I feel like a goatse would’ve been more perfect, but that may be a bit advanced for Joyce
Goatse has been called many things but PERFECT?
THE CRIMINALIST
10/10 would self-insert again.Would you have preferred ‘perfecter’?
It probably has been by 4chan.
Oh Joyce, your Rebel training is almost complete, and the fact that you did this means that your more of a asshole prankster then Carla its funny really. ” You’ve come far grasshopper. “
Did that all while looking away? She really does have a talent (and memorized how it looks pretty well as well)
What? Joyce wasn’t found totally credible?
I think this is the first time I’ve seen someone get mad about getting away with the perfect crime.
She should join the Amoeba Boys.
She draws a mean dick.
She draws a dick. Mean.
She dicks a mean draw.
Means she draws a dick.
A dick she draws.
Mean.
Dean Mick a raw shed.
Meek den a red wash.
Dickhead: A Warmness.
Heads, arms… a new dick!
Demand is weak. Crash!
Draws she a dick mean.
She means a dick draw.
It doesn’t look that mean. It’s more of a content dick.
It looks like a pretty average dick to me.
In their universe that is pretty much photo-realistic.
It looks excited at least.
I’ve never seen anything like it, in any resident hall
That christian girl.. sure draws a mean dick and baaalls…
(to the tune of Pinball wizard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DthtDjhqVOU)
+1 to you sir.
Seriously. My one is thoroughly plussed right now.
Oh, Sierra. You should know better. It’s always the quiet, repressed ones that are the most kinky.
Since this is Joyce we’re talking about the thought of her in bed scares me now, even if I haven’t thought about it up until now… Actually – no no I haven’t.
You’re pretty talented to have kept the thought out of your mind during that dream sequence she had.
Good, nobody believes it was her!
The hovertext is great.
Well Joyce is more or less autographical of Willis’ life, so…
So, future Joyce will haunt present day Joyce’s dreams with the pornlord revelation?
Sierra lives in an interesting world. Wait, what IS Sierra’s world?
A footloose world no doubt.
So Kevin Bacon and a lack of shoes. Sounds fun.
It worked for Guardians of the Galaxy.
Sierra is a distant cousin of Gamora.
Don’t forget the ‘pelvic sorcery’.
She certainly knows dicks very well to draw them with such skill
She used Google Image Search with the safety off as a reference.
Which seems excessive considering all the topical porn on Wikipedia alone.
It also makes you wonder what kind of person googles porn for reference before they hit upon the idea of googling ways to clean permanent marker off whiteboards.
Or what kind of person learns to draw amazing anatomy within an hour, but doesn’t get creative with simple shapes.
That kind of person has a great future ahead of her.
Interesting people are not made from making smart decisions
okay, well SOME of them aren’t
And that is why Captain Picard has an artificial heart.
Happy anniversary, pornlord!
Well the traditional 5th Anniversary gift is wood.
Rated Arrrr…
Happy Anniversary Mr. Willis!! And Joyce looks amazing in the last panel.
Many happy returns of the day!
it begins
Happy Anniversary!
–And the day was SAVED!
Thanks to….THE POWER PUFF GIRLS. Those little ding-dongs…
The perfect crime! Next: Joyce attempts to get away with MURDER!
(Graffiti is a “gateway” crime, don’tchaknow.)
It wouldn’t be the first Joyce to commit murder and try to get away with it.
That was assisted suicide.
Where is that reference from?
It’s a reference to her killing Anti-Joyce in It’s Walky.
Can’t blame her, last year if you told me Joyce vandalised an entire floor of a campus wing by drawing nothing but dicks while looking at porn I would have called bullshit.
Last year as in like “six days ago”? =p
Happy Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary!
Oh so its your anniversary Willis ? We’ll here’s a congratulation for you and you wife, happy anniversary man.
Oh come on now Joyce even some of us, the fans, didn’t think you actually did it. High suspicions but….
Going by the poll results I’d say the majority didn’t think it was her.
She’s getting really good at that.
like, no reference or nothin’.
And it took her one night to get that good, she has potential to be a master artist.
Well if I remember correctly she did have arts back in Roomies
Happy Analversary Mr. Pornlord.
Arrrrrr, piratey congratulations, Willis and Maggie.
Amazi-Girl’s new nemesis: THE DONGSMITH.
You meant Cocksmith right?
…
[i]Hancock[/i].
C’mon.
Jill Hancock?
hahaha vengeance from Joyce.
Best character alert.
Is that anything like an Amber Alert?
Naw, it’s more like a Sierra Mist.
She’d hit that, but Sierra Mist. *ba-dum whoosh*
Eh I wouldn’t go that far but , she has gain a some of my respect from this.
Congrats on the anniversary! My first wedding anniversary is on Monday.
Happy Anniversary in advance!! My 1st anniversary will be next year.. after I get married this year. And I’m already excited about it.
So… Happy Pre-versery?
:p Well thanks!
Then Happy Anniversary to you! WAY in advance XD
Happy Zeroth Anniversary!
Happy anniversary, David!
this can only end in chaos… and wieners… wienery chaos!!!
Sounds like the last Oktoberfest I attended.
Going a little off-topic. Why is it exactly that Joyce doesn’t like Walky?
Because of A) His disrespect for religion -and- B) His raw animal sexuality.
I Don’t know, all I do know is that all this pent up sexual frustration between those two will probably back up until it unloads into the other universe ( you know the other comic).
1) Doesn’t respect her religious beliefs.
2) Steals time with Dorothy which can make her envious sometimes.
3) Is insensitive to her feelings.
4) Doesn’t understand her point of view, just forces in his own e.g. that her youth pastor should die in a fire for teaching her to use depression as an opportunity to preach about God’s love instead of trying to teach her why he thinks her way of thinking is wrong.
Walky’s kind of a dick in general but he’s been extra rude to Joyce pretty much every time they’ve had a conversation. He’s insulted her, her beliefs, her parents, her pastor, her goals (despite him only being there in the first place because his parents made him), her opinions, keeps calling her friendship with Dorothy a display of homosexual lust, insults her right in front of her, only apologises because Dorothy makes him and there’s his sarcastic dismissal of literally anything he doesn’t agree with, which is almost everything Joyce ever says. She really has no reason at all to like him.
So, do all repressed Christian young adults grow up to be pornlords?
The rest become militant atheists on Youtube.
Eh, not really. My gf and I are just kinda… average shmoes who enjoy sleeping in on Sunday more than getting up stupid early to go sing creepily in unison with a buncha other folks.
THAT’s what you find creepy about going to church? Singing together as a group, a time honored tradition that binds societies together and makes beautiful music?
I mean, there is a lot to find creepy about going to church, but the singing is a weird choice.
It’s probably the songs themselves that make the singing in unison creepy. <_< And it is a bit creepy when you think of it. Instead of a popular song, they're singing ancient mantras passed along for at least 1000 years. Unless we're talking contemporary Christian music; that's 100x worse than hearing people sing the Lord's Prayer.
Meh. I was raised non-religious, but for some reason my parents thought sending me to the Christian kindergarten was a good idea. (The public, non-religious one wasn’t even farther away or anything.)
Anyway, first thing on the first day, they all gather around and start singing songs I had never heard. It was creepy as hell. Fortunately my folks picked up on how I felt and switched me over to the normal place, and sanity resumed.
As I believe has been covered prior, a lot of those lyrics are WEIRD! when considered objectively.

Happy anniversary! Time sure flies.
This is a true story of Willis’ life. It explains so much.
So he was once an innocent girl that got traumatized,drew penises on whiteboards,drew a webcomic series next,and then porn?
I think that fits with what we know of Willis and his personality, yes.
Where did the sex change happen? Did it ever happen? I am feeding fanfic writer with this aren’t I?
Joyce is his anima
and Willis is her animus
and Mary is animu
my love for joyce just skyrocketed
Joyce is a mischievous bisexual prankster just waiting to get out. One who loves Jesus. Dye her hair red and give her a bow and she’s Leliana from Dragon Age.
gasp
someone made a reference to dragon age!
I’ll take that as a euphemism.
Congratulations!
/totally thought you were making an evangelion reference
I probably should have been more specific.
Vicious cycle is vicious.
Congrats on the anniversary, Mr. Willis.
As for the poll, the current results reflect my own feelings. Technically I think it’s a web of character stories, but if I had to choose a character suited closest to the term ‘main character’, it would be Joyce. I feel she has more ties to the other characters than anyone else so far..or she just seems to interact more with the other characters.
Another good question would be who do you think are the major characters vs minor? Like every week a new person, – “Joyce, Major or Minor? Joe Major or Minor? Sal, Major or Minor? Mike, Major or Minor?” I’d say Major, Minor, Minor, Minor respectively, but I have a feeling it could go either way for Mike and overwhelmingly Major for Sal. Who knows though, right?
Happy Anniversary, Willis. Hope it (stays) smooth sailing from here on out.
Honestly I think this is one of my favourite examples of character growth in this comic.
20 years in the future, Joyce’s pornographic asides starring her popular webcomic characters are the most popular strips on “Insert Fake Slipshine Name Here”
Spitshine.
Tripshine.
She really seems to show talent in learning to drawing anatomy fast XD so I agree with the hovertext XD
Happy Anniversary! And thank you for all the years of wonderful comics! Your comics have really made me think about the characters in my own writing and whether or not I’m doing justice to them. There’s so much life in each of them, and it really sets the bar high for the rest of us!
Congrats on marrying a cool lady who’s okay with you drawing awesome porn comics!
hey she drew porn for me first
I want a wife like that, where do I get one
Become a webcartoonist first.
The President’s wife is the First Lady
The Pornlord’s wife is the First Pornlady
Actually, the wife of a Pornlord would be a ‘Phallady’.
*tips fedora*
Phal’lady.
Dorothy’s doordick was the smallest. It now rivals Joyce’s. They have matching doordicks!
She couldn’t believe Joyce had it in her. Wait, that came out wrong. Argh!
If I didn’t know any better, I’d almost say you did that on purpose.
Congratulations from your army of unkillable badasses! SALUTE!
The Museum of Modern Art presents Joyce Brown: Dickmaster
I honestly like Sierra, why don’t we see more of her?
to tease Yotomoe, apparently
That’s quite a quick draw she’s got there.
(Fastest dong in the west?)
Happy relationship birthday man! I have been crying about Joyce all day.
Does this mean Joyce will soon have edit wars as she rises in prominence as an editor in the Dexter and Monkey Master wiki?
Also, every time Willis uses the term “pornlord,” I can’t stop imagining him waving around a dildo like sonic srewdriver.
That’s Joyce. Joyce is the First Cocktor of the Porn Lords.
From Phallufrey, of course.
Travelling in a HARDIS.
Fighting the DONG-leks
Balleks, actually.
From the planet Skarotum
And also fighting the Viber-men
Don’t forget The Master[bater]
There’s only one way for her to get better at drawing dongs, and that’s practice, practice, practice…
I fear this is the first step on Joyce’s probably inevitable college sexual journey. Let’s just hope it’s not a lot of dicks.
Why not? As long as she’s safe about it, I mean.
‘Cause she needs to broaden her horizons.
Congratulations to you both!
Happy Anniversary, Willis.
Once Joyce is comfortable with drawing dicks, she may actually want to draw out a real one, then another, then another. She can become the Porn Lord of the Flies.
Yeess, let the dongs flow through You… Soon You will have completed Your journey to the dark side.
dong side*
*dork side*
Congratulations David, happy anniversary to you and wife.
love it when Joyce gets rebellious
Congrats! Also that Joyce face is meme-worthy
Congratulations!
You know, I dont know why, but I imagine between the last two panels that Joyce has gotten so good at drawing dicks, she can do it without looking, and at amazing speed, like it’s now second nature or something.
That’s entirely how I saw it, too.
Congratulations!
also, peyronie’s disease!
Happy anniversary to you, David and Maggie!
Congratulations, Mr Willis.
DAMN YOU, WILLIS!!!!!!!!
Mr. and Mrs. Damn You Willis
*Dong!*
Without looking, damn. She really took those references on board.
It’s like a shounen anime, and she’s learned a new technique.
Congratulations, both of you! May you have a happy anniversary!
Happy Anniversary, Mr. Willis!
Now: I think it’s plausible for Danny and/or Ethan to have an erotic dream about each other. That can speed up a Slipshine since it will be several years before they’re likely to interact enough for them actually to do anything. And since he just had enjoyable sexytimes* with Amazi-Girl, this will confuse Danny even more!
*I’m assuming. I haven’t been around a non-work computer long enough to log into Slipshine. Damn/Bless you, NSFW content!
I would prefer that any slipshines take place in the real world
not only can wet dreams get really weird (see: whatever the fuck joyce’s thing was), but it’ll lose its enotional weight as well, since slipshines are part of the story, not just mindless, irrelevant fucking
Panel 6 was the correct response, Joyce.
I never realized Willis’ anniversary was on International Talk Like a Pirate Day.
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!
That was 100% intentional
The traditional 5th anniversary gift is wood. Therefore it is most appropriate that an erection should appear in this comic.
Joyce almost seems likable to me now.
…Damn you, Willis.
Huh? Could someone explain to me why this makes sense?
Sierra doesn’t believe Joyce would ever draw a bunch of penises, Joyce is offended that Sierra finds it laughable and redraws the penis she just washed off.
technically, she drew a bigger, more detailed version of the penis she washed off
No, I get that. How does it make sense that Joyce did it?
The last few pages spelled it out. She drew one as a joke, Mike had switched the markers so it was permanent, so she panicked and drew them on everyone’s door so nobody could tell she had done it or who had been first.
DO NOT MOCK THE WHITEBOARD DING-DONG BANDIT!
srsly i will draw more dongs you do not want
Prepare for your whiteboard to be ding-donged!
The great ship Willis still sails, plundering the seven seas for booty! (And porn)
Congrats man.
Happy Anniversary, Willis and Mrs. Willis! And on a comic that doesn’t have everyone damning your name. Did you plan that?
Joyce takes her first steps to becoming Zone, the one true PornLord. It’s all tentacles from here, folks.
Also, congratulations to the Willis family! May you have many more anniversaries in your future together!
I wouldn’t believe it’s Joyce either.
Well, Willis has said multiple times that Joyce is largely autobiographical, so… the hovertext might well be true.
When confronted by Amazi-Girl and accused of being the perp, Joyce made reference to the incident when she got roofied and Amazi-Girl’s grandstanding allowed the sleazeball to make his escape. So could someone please explain to me just why the trauma of the attempted date-rape compelled Joyce to draw phalluses on the whiteboards?
Two unrelated incidents with Amazi Girl as the common factor.
Drawing the dongs was merely Joyce panicing when she realised the first one she drew wouldn’t come off. Her breakdown when confronted about it was her flashing back to the near-rape trauma. Amazi-Girl is cutting her some slack because she understands what it’s like to panic and do something stupid.
All of which was kinda explicitly explained a few days ago.
Happy anniversary!
Happy anniversary.
(And I love that Amber appears to be helping Joyce de-dongify the dorm [as opposed to just lending her the rubbing alcohol and escaping]. They’re bonding.)
I think Joyce is secretly pretty proud of her new ability to draw dongs. After all, it is a REBEL thing to do.
Also, I can’t help reading this strip as the closing act to a monster movie. “The DingDong bandit is gone and Joyce is once again her normal, wholesome self… OR IS SHE??? DunDunDuuuuuun.”
You show her Joyce! You can sin just like everyone else!
Joyce: “I hope this doesn’t awaken something in me.”
been reading for a while. Happy anniversary!
This may become how Joyce swears. When she gets angry at someone, her hand just reflexively draws a dong on any available space.
For example, the dong drawn in the last panel is Joyce’s way of saying ‘bongo!’.
i like to imagine she drew that in like, 3 seconds flat.
(she’d be a wiz in life drawing! if she could actually stand to be around real naked dudes and ladies that long)
*has this crazy mental image of Joyce now being aware of what a penis looks like but NO IDEA where it is actually LOCATED*
Well, she seems to think they’re detachable…
I woke up this morning
And my penis was missing again
This happens all the time
It’s detachable
I for one welcome our future pornlords
Hey, we have the same anniversary! Happy anniversary! Do something fun. We’re going to the coast.
Ha! Same here. 5 years, even. Happy anniversary!
“A big veiny triumphant bastard”
That is all I can think of when I look at the last panel.
I love Joyce.
And Happy Anniverrrrrrsary, me hearties!
And congratulations from me as well. Happy Arrrrniversarrrry
This made me laugh hard, hard like a raging boner!
Congrats! Also, angry Joyce.
Many more happy years for Mr and Mrs Willis! And keep those feels coming.
She’s turning into Roomie!!
Yes Joyce. Give in to the dark side.
Ah, the Willis take on Christian fables
Just noticed something. After their first math class, Walky and Joyce are on pretty amiable terms. Then, Joyce remarks: “It’s uphill from here.”
You can read it here:
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2010/comic/book-1/02-uphill-from-here/uphill/
Looking back, I think Willis was making an inside joke about Joyce and Walky’s relationship. I’m wondering if it was intentional or coincidence?
I dunno dude, while it may have been an inside joke, im pretty sure Joyce just meant that the class they were heading to in that strip was up a hill from that point on.
Joyce has gingivitis. Look at those gums! And she gad such a pretty smile, too…
Oh, NO!
She was calling Becky! Either Becky picked up and listened to the whole exchange between Joyce and Amazi-Girl or the voice mail recorded the whole thing!
Dun-Dun-Duuun!
Happy Anniversary!
Best birthday comic A+ (your anniversary is my birthday. You got married the day I turned 18. How weird.)
That last panel still cracks me up. There may be hope for Joyce yet.
Rubs dong on not fully closed door. Door slowly moans open
This page is even funnier, 2 months later
Wow. She’s really gotten VERY proficient at drawing weeners.
Yeah, I wouldn’t have believed it either. I would have suspected the quiet one, Dino-Girl.
And with the hovertext, further solidifying the whole ‘Joyce is autobiographical thing’, aren’t we Willis?
The last two panels made me laugh, then laugh that much harder, like your laughter gears up. Good one.
