DOOT DOOT DOO DEET DEET
Ohhhhhhhhhhh you going to take them off tonight
Ohhhhhhhhhhh down beside the EXIT light
Ohhhhhhhhhhh you gonna let it all hang out
Those pant-less girls, you make the rockin’ world go round!
I have no place I have to be for a couple hours…when I do go where I need to be I wont be wearing pants nor underpants. Butt, I will be wearing a kilt. Because, when I wear a kilt my boys are free and if the boys are free my mind is freeeeee. sorry, lack of caffeine and slight sinus headache.
Plaid kilts aren’t the only kilts. Aside from ancient Egyptian linen wraps, because I’ve never seen anyone wear one, there’s sarongs/pareos – assorted cultures even have traditional wraps/ties according to gender.
Those aren’t exactly kilts, per se, but Utilikilts are more durable anyway, and nearly as comfy.
(I do still own pants though. Can’t weld safely with legs exposed.)
Have you ever worn a cup? Those bloody things are uncomfortable. They dig into your hip joints. Wore them when I did martial arts… and they’re not as protective as you’d think. They can and will shatter… I know from experience.
So your reply to your friend would be “Why don’t girls where hard, plastic cups that aren’t shaped quite right over their ta-ta’s?”
They wear hard plastic breast protectors in the sport of fencing (sword fighting). Also, the US military is only now doing body armor shaped for women. Up till now women were given armor originally designed for men that doesn’t fit properly. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/93/Chest_protector.jpg
I always wondered why “Holy Cheese” is an expression in the Dumbiverse when the Cheese himself isn’t present. Is Walky referencing Dexter and Monkey Master? Or does he just love cheese that much?
I’d hate to hang out with the super casual comfortable girl who wants to hang out who doesn’t have pants on.
(I mean I probably would but I know Joyce wouldn’t)
I wonder if Willis has a master Ruth Freckle Dot Map tucked away somewhere, so he can accurately plot out where they should go. Or… nah. He probably just wings it. lol
Hmm, it is morning, Ruth isn’t even dressed yet (pants-less, in fact!) and is claiming to have seen plenty of Billie… I doubt Walky will put much thought into it, and Joyce will likely be to naïve to consider the possibility, but I do wonder if Dorothy might put two and two together here…
Walkey is more concerned though, and smarter than you seem to give him credit for.
More likely he’ll be walking away and think to himself “Wait, how did she see her when she doesn’t have pants on…” *Turns with a shocked face in panel 4*
You know how you might read a comic, over and over, and overagain,
stopping on a panel, relishing it, then reading it sequence again;
then going back the day before, so you can read straight thru.
Its like that Willis
(there is so much content here , to unpack and enjoy )
even funnier on a new read through.
Even panel is funny for different reasons.
Its almost a shame Willis wasted all these punchlines on a single day..
First Panel: Its their first Sexy-lesbian fight since becoming lovers, and its a funny one: Look how outraged billie is to have ti say to Ruth she is not leaving out the Window like ..trash? Amazigirl ? Sal? . Its a role-reversal and its funny.
Yet Ruth still pleads with her ( very funny )
Pantless Punchine needs no further elucidation.
This single panel could easily have been an entire days worth of strips
Ruth should probably get a skirt, because then she could be rid of bothersome interlopers at all times, because even when dressed she would technically be pantsless
Now, to preface this, every university has their own rules, but as an RA, I know I’ve had plenty of meetings and one-on-ones with residents in my room. She could just say that her and Billie are currently/have recently had a one-on-one and leave it at that, although the fact that she is, as she said, pantsless, could cause potential issues with that story, along with not being in the soundest state of mind to come up with a story. Again referencing my experience, my freshman year had my RA telling me she was currently having sex rather than say she was meeting with a resident, although I’m not sure which was the lie there (I didn’t hear sexy noises, but it’s also odd to cover up a one-on-one meeting with the sex lie).
Yes, but Ruth is trying to cover up the portions of Billie’s anatomy she’s seen recently. (“Yeah, I’ve seen all of Billie which isn’t covered by a bikini. OK?”)
Ruth probably doesn’t sweat stuff like that, she just needed an excuse. I don’t recall her really batting an eyelash at Walky in his underwear, and Sara and Sal have traipsed about pantsless to an extent before without her breathing down their neck.
That would be valid if it seemed she was even wearing underwear, but we have no signs of that.
Even convenient censorship with a garbage-can to suggest otherwise.
That’s my prediction of what Walky will say has happened after (I again predict) he phones Billie next strip and they hear the sound come from inside Ruth’s room.
Don’y you see that Ruth’s pantlessness actually IMPROVED her circumstances in this instance? Had she been wearing your ridiculous ‘pajama pants’ she would have been unable to honestly fob off Dorothy, Walky and Joyce!
Pj pants are no fun either. Just hang them on the doorknob so that if someone does haul you out of bed before you’re ready….you’re ready for ’em.
They are both cute pantless. And I guess Dorothy will the be the first one to tumble onto what is going on. Joyce will very likely miss it. And Walky is being his usual cautious self, he’s out a there.
Look, whenever a male suggests that two women are lesbianing it up in there, everyone treats me – I mean him – like a pervert. Maybe it’s the phrasing of it.
In 4 to 8 panels a phone call from Walky to Billie will ring from Ruth’s room ;P. Unless Billie has a new model smartphone with glorious 4 hour battery life.
I’m waiting for someone to put the statements “I am in fact panstless” and “Oh, I’ve seen plenty of her” together. Walky and Joyce might not catch it, but Dorothy should be able to get it.
me, holding phone to kids: hey look, this is the voice actor for abby saja, does he look familiar
kids: oh yeah it's that youtube guy who says the f word a lot
I just don’t want “film a video and hope it goes viral” to be a “reasonable” expectation of authors!! I hate being on video! I am too awkward for video!

COME ON BE PROUD OF YOUR PANTLESSNESS
Pants are overrated.
No Rules means No Pants
RA’s are all about rules, tho.
No Pants shall be the only rule.
Well, it is the rule at Zombie Roomie.
I loved their Hobbes and Bacon strips.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpWOvK-mz7U
Don’t need pants if you wanna/
You can leave your friends behind,
‘Cause your friends wear pants/
and if they wear pants/
Well, they’re no friends ‘a mine
GENIUS
Take off your pants if you wanna/
Show off that big behind/
Because our butts are cute/
except when we toot/
And we do that all the time
I’m in love with the Pantsless Dance!
Written, of course, by Men Without Pants.
The butts disease has become terminal.
I’m sorry.
My… Only regret… Is having butt disease…
Heurk! Bleagh…
Following that logic, butts are disgusting producers of methane, toxic odors, and friggin farts.
Got no pants
Got no pants
Everything’s under control
Got no pants

Going com-man-do
O oh!
It’s the pantless dance

Everybody shake your behind
Hah! NO PANTS!
Ohhhhhhhhhhh you going to take them off tonight
Ohhhhhhhhhhh down beside the EXIT light
Ohhhhhhhhhhh you gonna let it all hang out
Those pant-less girls, you make the rockin’ world go round!
Pants are for the weak.
…and for the employed.
Same thing.
I have no place I have to be for a couple hours…when I do go where I need to be I wont be wearing pants nor underpants. Butt, I will be wearing a kilt.
Because, when I wear a kilt my boys are free and if the boys are free my mind is freeeeee. sorry, lack of caffeine and slight sinus headache.
That line becomes rather more…sketchy, for those of us livin’ in the UK, where pants are not used to mean jeans/trousers/etc, but underwear.
I read Ruth’s line and had to remind myself she wasn’t telling them she was completely naked below the waist. xD
And yet she is!
I’m sorry, but I have to come out in favor of pants. Or at least the pockets that are attached to them. (Maybe I should get a Utilikilt…)
At the very least Walky’s survival instincts are in gear.
Pants are oppression!
Didn’t joe once decide that his pants were only getting in the way? While talking to Howard I believe.
It’s a shame that man-skirts or man-dresses aint a thing in our society, after all, the nutsack was meant to dangle outside the body for a reason.
Kilts are always an option for the truly confident.
But not everyone wants to wear plaid and kilts are still often looked down by the mainstream.
Plaid kilts aren’t the only kilts. Aside from ancient Egyptian linen wraps, because I’ve never seen anyone wear one, there’s sarongs/pareos – assorted cultures even have traditional wraps/ties according to gender.
Those aren’t exactly kilts, per se, but Utilikilts are more durable anyway, and nearly as comfy.
(I do still own pants though. Can’t weld safely with legs exposed.)
The builders kilt might work.
and it has a built in tool belt.,
Umm, Utilikilts…
http://www.utilikilts.com/
One of my friends asked why don’t guys all where like…jockstraps or cups? Like…girls where bras, and this way noone could kick us in the balls.
Well, there’d be no reason someone wouldn’t kick you in the nuts, anyway.
But when they do, you’ll be prepared!
Have you ever worn a cup? Those bloody things are uncomfortable. They dig into your hip joints. Wore them when I did martial arts… and they’re not as protective as you’d think. They can and will shatter… I know from experience.
So your reply to your friend would be “Why don’t girls where hard, plastic cups that aren’t shaped quite right over their ta-ta’s?”

Too much heat reduces the sperm count. Dangly man-parts are a survival thing.
Yes! Vile butt prisons! They must be cast off!
Turn the tables and commence to a-pressin’ yer pants.
Plenty, pantsless, and proud.
Holy Cheese
Oh, Great Cheese, give me the strength to go through this day.
I always wondered why “Holy Cheese” is an expression in the Dumbiverse when the Cheese himself isn’t present. Is Walky referencing Dexter and Monkey Master? Or does he just love cheese that much?
Oh great, I think I just caught butts disease.
So does this mean that you will draw up a comic featuring butts now?
If I could draw? Probably. In my case, I’ll just have visions of freckled butts.
Bwahahaha. I can draw it and won’t.
No Yotome! Why must you taunt us with visions of freckled backsides you’ll never draw for us?
You forgot the fact she has no pants, Joyce. But I forgive you.
I’d hate to hang out with the super casual comfortable girl who wants to hang out who doesn’t have pants on.
(I mean I probably would but I know Joyce wouldn’t)
Then I’d be hanging out with Joyce.
Just as a useless, pre-emptive measure:
Please no Lego “Where are my Pants?” jokes?
Hooooney? Where’re my pants?
You axed for it!
No one’s commenting on Ruth’s additional freckles, then?
I was posting at the same time as you, mentioning them.
You just did.
“Additional” implies they are unnecessary and unappreciated.
I believe the word you were looking for is superfluous not additional, additional is a more neutral term
You could see them in the last panel of last strip, too. I thought she was wearing polka-dot panties for a second.
Walky’s way more astute than anyone gives him credit for.
And that’s how he likes to keep it.
It took ALL of Ruth’s strength to not make a fat joke in panel 3.
She seen plenty of her aaaaaaaaalllll night long.
Pants are for squares!
And the number of the freckles shall be three, and they shall orient as a triangle pointed downwards, always!
Confirm for invers-Triforce!
I wonder if Willis has a master Ruth Freckle Dot Map tucked away somewhere, so he can accurately plot out where they should go. Or… nah. He probably just wings it. lol
Walky appears to have a self-preservation instinct after all.
Pantless Billie is SO CUTE!
All Billie’s are cute.
But Billie did have panties on …. http://www.dumbingofage.com/2014/comic/book-5/01-when-somebody-loved-me/terrible-2/
She took them off when she realized people were at the door? Naughty.
‘Pretty much all of her, in fact.”
Somehow, I have only now realized that Ruth is taller than Walky.
Hmm, it is morning, Ruth isn’t even dressed yet (pants-less, in fact!) and is claiming to have seen plenty of Billie… I doubt Walky will put much thought into it, and Joyce will likely be to naïve to consider the possibility, but I do wonder if Dorothy might put two and two together here…
Walkey is more concerned though, and smarter than you seem to give him credit for.
More likely he’ll be walking away and think to himself “Wait, how did she see her when she doesn’t have pants on…” *Turns with a shocked face in panel 4*
Nah, nothing so impressive. She could be getting ready to shower, for instance, having seen Billie at some point earlier in the morning.
Although I do like the whole “I’ve seen a lot of her” quip. So very Ruth.
You know how you might read a comic, over and over, and overagain,
stopping on a panel, relishing it, then reading it sequence again;
then going back the day before, so you can read straight thru.
Its like that Willis
(there is so much content here , to unpack and enjoy )

Yet Ruth still pleads with her ( very funny )
Pantless Punchine needs no further elucidation.
This single panel could easily have been an entire days worth of strips
Cue the door opening by itself due to a bad lock.
Almost like someone had to break the door open once! (Although I could swear they got it fixed afterword…)
Praise be to Dab.
2nd panel Joyce squeeeee!!!!
Yeah, that “eep!” was probably more hilarious to me than it should have been. haha
Ruth should probably get a skirt, because then she could be rid of bothersome interlopers at all times, because even when dressed she would technically be pantsless
She could also accomplish that by wearing a dress, overalls, or a kilt. A bikini would also do the trick.
Depending on whose definition of pants we use, overalls’ legs might count.
I do thank you for the mental image of Ruth in a bikini, though.
And I thank you for the mental image of Ruth in a kilt.
Or a longer shirt.
Now, to preface this, every university has their own rules, but as an RA, I know I’ve had plenty of meetings and one-on-ones with residents in my room. She could just say that her and Billie are currently/have recently had a one-on-one and leave it at that, although the fact that she is, as she said, pantsless, could cause potential issues with that story, along with not being in the soundest state of mind to come up with a story.

Yes, but Ruth is trying to cover up the portions of Billie’s anatomy she’s seen recently. (“Yeah, I’ve seen all of Billie which isn’t covered by a bikini. OK?”)
Yeah, but this is Ruth. Ms. “my door is always open, except when it’s locked. It is always locked.”
BTW, nice Grava-TR.
I see what you did there Willis.
Panel 3 is goddamn adorable, though blushing Joyce about pantslessness is also cute.
Hey you guys having a no pants party in there?
No we’re not
Are you shore?
Yes Go away ! *Slam*
Aaaah a brought the breakaway pants too.
I think I actually called this yesterday. Ruth didn’t notice she wasn’t wearing pants!
Ruth probably doesn’t sweat stuff like that, she just needed an excuse. I don’t recall her really batting an eyelash at Walky in his underwear, and Sara and Sal have traipsed about pantsless to an extent before without her breathing down their neck.
That would be valid if it seemed she was even wearing underwear, but we have no signs of that.
Even convenient censorship with a garbage-can to suggest otherwise.
As such, it would seem our Esteemed Mr. Willis does Not in fact
believe in the Gainax school of censorship
Just the overly long shirt school of censorship.
Which, I suppose, isn’t too implausible, given the length of many shirts.
Leave Ruth alone she’s having underpants problems.
Oh God Ruth killed Billie and is keeping the corps in her room
That’s my prediction of what Walky will say has happened after (I again predict) he phones Billie next strip and they hear the sound come from inside Ruth’s room.
*Pictures Ruth’s room full of marines* O_o
One day I will learn basic English, one day…
Panel 3. Is that adorable and hot, or am I just kind of weird that way?
Shake your hips!
Wiggle your butt!
Drop your pants!
Pull ’em back up!
Linda = Patron Saint of Cheers
Yeah, someone got it! The TV mom to end all TV moms.
You realize, of course, you guys spend way too much time watching some really weird shit.
Cheers was a primetime sitcom. It’s pretty hard to get much more conventional. Not impossible, mind, just hard.
Meh, your loss.
And this is why everyone needs pajama pants.
What? What? WHAT!?
Don’y you see that Ruth’s pantlessness actually IMPROVED her circumstances in this instance? Had she been wearing your ridiculous ‘pajama pants’ she would have been unable to honestly fob off Dorothy, Walky and Joyce!
Don’t cha mean “pajama jeans”? Pajama jeans – as worn by Walky.
Pj pants are no fun either. Just hang them on the doorknob so that if someone does haul you out of bed before you’re ready….you’re ready for ’em.
They are both cute pantless. And I guess Dorothy will the be the first one to tumble onto what is going on. Joyce will very likely miss it. And Walky is being his usual cautious self, he’s out a there.
Look, whenever a male suggests that two women are lesbianing it up in there, everyone treats me – I mean him – like a pervert. Maybe it’s the phrasing of it.
In 4 to 8 panels a phone call from Walky to Billie will ring from Ruth’s room ;P. Unless Billie has a new model smartphone with glorious 4 hour battery life.
Ruth’s butt freckles
OMG so cute~
6 hours & still less than 100 comments?
Did the World End when I wasn’t watching?
What’s going on?
Come on, Ruth, Billie’s not fine.
She’s smokin’. Can I get some up top?
Anybody?
Up top!
And on the down low…
Too slow!
OOOOOOOO SNAP!
I love how Walky’s so happy to hear that Billie’s okay. LOOK AT THAT FACE
I’m waiting for someone to put the statements “I am in fact panstless” and “Oh, I’ve seen plenty of her” together. Walky and Joyce might not catch it, but Dorothy should be able to get it.
“In fact, I’ve even seen parts of Billie that even her doctor hasn’t seen!”
I’m torn between thinking this is super hot and being like “dawwwww.”
“Holy Cheese”?
And no one has made a swiss cheese pun? No one?
!So Ruth is with “other Jacob”?!
We can dance if we want to
We can leave your pants behind
‘Cause your friends got pants and if they’ve got pants
Well they’re no friends of mine…
