          It’s all about the pronunciation, some Japanese pronounce it soon-dur-re, while others say sun-dar(rhymes with thunder)

            well, the actual Japanese pronunciation is t-soon-deh-reh (although the quick t at the beginning is almost indistinguishable from just “soon” to the untrained ear)

            Yeah, absolutely no Japanese people say it to rhyme with “thunder” because in Japanese, it’s always spelled つんでれ which can only be pronounced /tsoo/ /n/ /de/ /reh/. I still thought your joke was cute, but don’t try to speak for cultures you don’t belong to/languages you don’t speak.

        My parents have been divorced for nearly 30 years, yet still if you mention connect-the-dots around my mother she will start ranting about the night my dad came to bed with a marker. Naturally, she had asked why he had a marker and he said “with all those dots, there’s got to be a picture in there somewhere.”
        It pissed her off enough that even now she gets enraged about it and will rant for an hour about how childish my dad is.
        She also gripes about him telling her she was “just a dozen freckles shy of a really good tan.”

        And now I’m really hoping that every time I see Ruth I don’t get reminded of my mother.

      Agreed. This looks like it’s going to be adorable.
      Of course, there’s always the possibility that Willis is about to turn it around and make it sad, but I’m hoping for adorable sexy times for Ruth and Billie. Gods know, they deserve a little adorable.

      There is some truth to the stereotype of people who are domineering in daily life wanting to be sexually submissive. Ruth fits that decently enough I’d think. Though she seems more switch-y. What with the shove-smooching lo these many moons ago. Now, that Galasso dude, I imagine he’s all about, like, having ladypersons in high heels embark on a hiking expedition upon his testicles.

        You imply Galasso knows enough about what sex is to have feelings of arousal, recognize them, and seek out that sensation. I mean, he has a daughter, but on the other hand: ‘mealdisks’.

          Exactly. If DOA Galasso is anything like the Walkyverse one, he’s pretty much the male version of Tyler’s mother from Girls with Slingshots. Before that chat with Clarice and Hazel.

            They’d probably make a great couple if Tyler’s mom wasn’t such a hardcore Christian and Galasso wasn’t, y’know, too busy resurrecting historical Jesus and trying to take over the world.

            Who am I kidding? She’d probably assume Historical Jesus was the second coming.

                Biologically, it is definitely erectile tissue (developmentally it is the same exact tissue). From my very limited first hand experience, it certainly seemed to engorge and become more rigid. “Stiff” sounds reasonable to me.

        Actually, unless Billie gave her a new one, doesn’t she not have a key anymore, since Ruth changed the locks after she caught Billie drinking that one time?

        Mind you, in light of more recent events, I could see a new key having been given. On the other hand, Ruth doesn’t really need to, since Billie improved her lock picking skill.

        2: Is it on land? If yes, go to 3. If no, there probably aren’t any wild dogs there.
        3: Is the landmass populated by humans? If yes, it probably has wild dogs.

        They’re everywhere, and kicking them in the head doesn’t always get them to back down. Sometimes it just makes them angrier. You have my sympathy, Benjy.

              I don’t know about the American hinterland, but you’ll have a hard time locating wild dogs in, say, western Europe or in the New York metro area. Once there’s no wilderness for wildlife to inhabit, and humans leave no easy food sources around, and reports of sightings of loose animals are promptly responded to by animal control, it does become impossible for large wild animals to survive.
              Small animals like rats, sure, and nocturnal animals like cats that are good at hiding… Dogs, not so much.

                  Interesting. I didn’t know that. Strike NYC from my previous post, then!
                  The point that I meant to make was: when humans put their minds to eliminating wild canines, they can and they will. In western Europe, wolves exist only in a few places where they are left alone, and a few more where they have been re-introduced. Everywhere else, there are none, because they have been deliberately exterminated. We could do the same thing to foxes if we wanted to, and we do do the same thing to wild dogs.

                  Yeah, things like wolves, many dogs, and even coyotes are big enough to potentially eliminated. Foxes seem to be small enough and adaptable enough to have an easier time though. Even smaller and it becomes basically impossible, if the animal is flexible.

      True, but it wouldn’t be a Willis comic if the characters weren’t cripplingly insecure.

            To reduce confusion as to whether or not Faz exists, Faz has decided that he will appear in billboards posted across Disloyal Subject’s home town, portraying Faz standing in close proximity to women. These women will be dressed in revealing clothing, thereby implying that they are or will be sexed by Faz.

              The only way those pictures could exist is through mastery of Photoshop.

              Regular Photoshop won’t cut it, as even an art program knows the Wrong that is Faz standing in close proximity to women (especially in revealing clothing) who are not inherently disgusted by this fact, and will try to crash rather than allow this travesty into the universe.

        I don’t think it’s a négligé. It looks more like a blue summer dress. I do see the line that looks like it’s Ruth’s underwear seen through the sheer fabric, but I think that’s just a shadow.

      *shrugs* just depends on what the person likes to wear.
      i wear short sleeves and tan easy, but i also wear pants more or less religiously so my legs are fishbelly white.
      my cousin, on the other hand, who is the quintessential freckled redhead, has a lot more body confidence than i do and isn’t afraid to show her gams, so she’s get freckles every damn where.
      it’s just a natural result of personal taste. *shrugs*

              It wouldn’t work artistically, but imagining Dina as obsessed with Bajoran independence as she currently is with dinosaurs, while still maintaining her sweet and earnest shyness, would just make me love the character of Kira so much. In fact, add a touch of badassery and you’ve got the ultimate Whedon fan fave sidekick, right there.
