dumbass. she’ll already be taken by then. then it’ll all be shoved in you’re FAAAAAAAAACE
…with his penis
Thanks for that disturbing, yet arousing, mental image.
Hey, it works!
The Mike Gravatar just clinches this.
These juvenile repetitious comments make me giggle.
Joe would totally approve of Amber.
With his penis.
Racist.
Oh Joe…you so crazy.
So he’d rather date a girl he knows he can connect with on some level than some one his room mate introduced him to in the hall. Not exactly racist.
Who’s willing to bet that tomorrow Joe’s going to come across her and try to sex her? With his penis.
Alright, Mr. Herbert, try and keep your racism to a minimum, these comments are rated E, for everyone. With Joe’s penis.
How is Joe’s penis doing any rating?
It’s giving Amber a 7, because she’s cute but kinda chunky.
You don’t subscribe to Joe’s “Do List” do you?
No, but I might if someone gave a link.
Whether or not you are actually racist has little bearing on whether or not you will be accused of racism in many cases.
Mostly because it’s possible to say/do something racist without being racist in a general sense.
/petpeeve
It’s possible to be called racist(sexist too) when being totally fair. It’s gotten to the point where everybody should be on fair ground and it wouldn’t matter. Then again, see comments from a week ago.
True, I’m just sick of people whining ‘OMG I’M NOT [whatever]IST’ whenever someone points out a bit of [whatever]ism in something they make/like.
Fair, Tristan, but at the same time false and silly complaints about racism need to stop, too. They weaken the cause of equality. Danny wasn’t interested in one girl. He is interested in another. That’s not racism, it’s just a matter of taste.
Note: I have a strong negative reaction to racist complaints after I got one at work. It turned out I didn’t even work that day and it was purely an attempted lawsuit in the early stages.
I agree Tristan, for example what Joyce said a couple of strips ago could be (considered) racist, but it wasn’t meant to be at all
Daww Danny! I knew you couldn’t be emo for long.
Despite the initial Dorothy-look-alike reaction, whether he gets with Amber or not I think was a pretty healthy thing for Danny. He’s aware that there are other girls out there that are pretty awesome. Dorothy didn’t need to his one and old. Hopefully he’ll be seeing college as the fresh start that it should be.
Whenever Shaggy is out of panel, the other characters should be asking ‘Where’s Shaggy?’ Shaggy also needs access to a time machine.
I get the first part, but why does Shaggy need a time machine? He’s already living in the 70s.
…with his penis.
“Oh, fine, turn down the black chick, but ask out the first white girl you see. ‘I’m not ready yet’, my ass, Mr. Racist with My Penis.”
A racist penis?
Danny looks downright adorable in panel three. In a puppy-dog sort of way.
Wait…so he meets a nice girl, and his thoughts turn immediately to introducing her to Joe? Is he insane?
And just because my mind is going weird places at the moment, what the hell does Danny’s hair look like in real life? Does it grow naturally like that or is it a cut? Who the hell gets a massive 90-degree corner cut out of the back of their hair? I need pictures of this haircut.
It’s better than the mullet he sported in his ROOMIES! days.
Actually, the only difference between his cut now and his cut in Roomies! is that his 1997-hair had a crapload more volume. Actually, looking in the archives, everyone has that corner in their hair. In fact–Joe still has the corner, it’s just very very teeny.
On that note, look immediately below his ears. It’s still a mullet. It’s just a mullet with a giant corner cut into it.
…that’s not a mullet, it’s just shaggy in the back. Like he could use a hair cut.
…Which is pretty much what it looked like in the Roomies! days, too. I never got the impression it was supposed to be a mullet to begin with.
It’s like meeting the parents, only with more bromance.
God it is both refreshing & horrific to see that other people (even fictional characters) go through the same RIDICULOUS self-questioning nonsense in their brain.
Poor Danny.
(^already a DoA mantra!)
For a moment I thought the “with his penis” line was gonna be a running gag here. Thankfully it stopped.
But oh… Danny. Forget your friend! He doesn’t care about your happiness. He just wants you laid so you don’t annoy him anymore.
It really only works as a joke when we’re dealing with Joe directly, not when he’s a though bubble.
But, just for you: …with my penis.
I’m pretty sure DiDi was being sarcastic here…
I realized this after reading the comments prior, but the deed is done.
…with my penis.
Don’t gag on a penis. Wait I mean-
*choke*
Man, if she dropped this whole “superhero” schtick and be a little more crudely drawn, then Amber could be a character right out of XKCD.
Why would she need to drop the superhero schtick for that? BlackHat Man, Cory Doctrow, Elaine Roberts…they may not have costumes, but they’re basically superheroes.
Pretty sure you may want to have your brain looked to. You just called Black Hat Guy a hero.
… with my penis.
Take it from one who knows: ASK NOW YOU FOOL!!!
After saying don’t talk to me an hour ago, that might not exactly be the best idea.
…ok, fine. Not now but ask her before it is too late. The last three girls I’ve asked out have already had boyfriends. In at least one case, it was because I waited too long.
I totally feel ya there, hopefully Danny won’t procrastinate too much, but I can’t imagine who would be moving in on Amber. Ethan? No. Mike? Not likely. Joe?
Uh oh.
I agree on the soon, but not immediately. That would be mighty awkward.
Had it been a two hour class, I could see the challenge aspect. It’s not fun trying to even write a simple game in an hour, much less a whole OS. Cheer up, Amber, you’ll have a whole semester to finish your OS.
Her smile in Danny’s thought bubble is just adorable.
A lesson on the start menu?! WTF?!
It may disturb you that based on my college days I don’t find that all that implausible.
Yeah, it occurs in college classes. Believe it or not, there are young people that have rarely touched a computer. They are rare compared to the vast amount of older folks who are going back to college that rarely touch a computer but they exist, but those kids do exist.
Its a damn shame that for most advanced computer classes, its classes like these that are REQUIRED and can’t be tested out of. -.-
I really like that Danny’s imagine scenario is all sketchy.
D: he just didn’t connect with Sarah intellectually…Race had nothing to do with it…plus Danny and Amber have more in common…
The blatant, purposeful racism in your comment sickens me and I hope Joe points it out to you should you and he ever meet.
????? All I meant was they both have computer related majors and possible career goals around their computer science degrees! I did not mean they had race in common (ho gawd NOW I see it, I assure you that’s not what I meant)
So Amber will become his new Dorothy. Men have needs and Danny’s definitely in need. After all, when ya gotta Joe, ya gotta Joe…. with your penis.
Danny, Joe won’t bug you for the skin thing, he’ll bug you because she looks like a chestnut-hair Dorothy.
Thus Spake Zaratustra. (Sorry. I had to say that at least once.)
I support DannyxAmber. It’s not really a pairing I thought of before, probably because they never met each other before this AU comic.
hahaha. Very nice, Mr. Willis.
Of course, we all know that Danny really just discriminates against girls with 20-20 vision.
Danny isn’t racist. Amber is half-step-korean on her father’s side.
No she’s not. Faz is a half step irish on his father’s side. I think.
not how that works
Danny’s followed her so far, so he must hate to see her go, but loves to watch her leave.
Of course, they live in the same building so they’ll see one another pretty frequently from now on.
You used a sketch (complete with hazy blue ‘pencils’) to illustrate a conceptual and incomplete thought scenario.
WELL PLAYED
Panel 1= comic on my favourite comics list.
Reason 1: Linux is awsome.
Reason 2: windows is crap and overrated.
Well maybe it’s for the best that she didn’t write her own OS. I mean what would she call it? Amberux? Amberix? Her name just isn’t unixy enough. :/
