Shaggy probably wants to date Amber too, she looks like Velma.
Wait, did Shaggy like Velma, or was that just me pairing people off arbitrarily since the poor guy had no chance with Daphne with Fred around?
Also during Mystery Inc. Velma wanted Shaggy to choose between her and his best friend Scooby, and she was a lot more serious about the relation than he was
Assuming Joe is using a negative tone when speaking, apparently it’s wrong to be in jaw-dropping awe of the world at all time. Well, some of us don’t get enough air otherwise.
Believe it or not, obligate mouth breather is actually a medical term. Being forced to breath through your mouth can be caused by craniofacial deformities and other pathologies. I’m not sure if when it caught on as an insult that was the source, but there you go.
I happen to be best friends with a female CS Major who is also a twin (the twin is not a cs major and considering their relationship THANK GOD). But she is actually really sensitive about people saying there are so few girl CS majors. Don’t get me wrong it is a minority in the field as far as I can tell I’m a math major myself. But there are more girls in her classes than her.
I also majored in CS (an equivalent actually, being in a different country and all), and not only there were plenty of girls, we also had a couple of former pageant contestants.
I always liked Aquaman… The old one, not the bitter bearded one (really love the version from “Batman – the Brave and the Bold”). As a kid, he was actually my favorite superhero. Might have something to do with living in a harbour city, but still…
No Batman, huh? Check out the positioning of that “bedsheet” in the last panel. Looks like a cape being blown upwards. Joe IS Batman. Or he’s gonna date the Amazigirl identity.
This is a Willis Arrow, or I’m mad.
Well, okay, I AM mad, but I’m NATURALLY mad… I don’t use any chemicals!
Now that you mention it, it does look kinda like a cape in the last panel. Anyone terribly surprised that whatever type of superhero Joe might be, he’d have a *bed*sheet (or blanket, whatever) as his cape.
Joe’s its the 21st Century. There’s probably just as many girls in Compter Science Classes as there are boys. Hell, some school have it as a requirement for various degrees.
Hate to say it, but I’m pretty sure that’s still nowhere even close to true- a lot more women are in computer science nowadays than 15 years ago, including one of my housemates, but the first relevant result I find with a quick google search shows that Stanford has less than 10% of their graduating CS majors as female.
My school had a few of the female gender. The odd thing was that there were more female math and CS professors than male. Sadly only 1 in 10 women who attempted a CS degree stayed more than 1 year. same for guys, but doesn’t seem as staggering since that means after a year there is 1 female and 30 males…it’s ok tho since after 4 years it is weeded down to 4 or 5 males.
Indeed, while I was there, one of my friend’s dormmates designed the Stanford CS Dept. t-shirt … it had seven icon dudes (like the kind on men’s bathroom’s doors), and one woman icon dude. It was totally accurate, but it did NOT go over well. I kinda liked it though. (But I majored in Japanese).
Nope. I graduated with a CS major a couple years ago from a very large university. In my CS classes, which were usually between 40-70 people, the number of female students ranged from 0 to 4. Interestingly, most of the women were from Asia.
I have decided I am tired of adding “with my penis” to the end of all Joe’s dialogue, so if anyone wants to continue down this dark and sordid path, feel free.
I’ll let you all in on a secret: At both the graduate and undergraduate levels, the life sciences (biochemistry, molecular biology, neuroscience, biophysics, etc.) are probably the highest percentage female of any of the hard sciences in college. Seriously, I went to a college with a 2:1 male:female ratio, and all of my life sciences courses were at least half female. I’m now in grad school, and women are the majority in a number of professors’ labs.
From what I heard, if you want to get laid you have to major in theatre. I don’t know where psychology is when it comes to that, but as long as it’s above biology I won’t regret changing my major from theatre. Why biology? There’s actually a story behind that, but you probably don’t give a crap.
I studied literature and had a 1:10 ratio male / female. i studied german and had a 1:8 male/female. I studied in the state school to teach children and the ratio was 1:20. Neither me nor any of the male audience never get laid because of that ratio. Know why? Because if you’re a guy in these things, you’re more interested into the subject than into getting laid. Half the girl are more interested into the subject than getting laid. The other half just aren’t at right place and would only date anyone with sufficient wealth, as they’ve been told a woman has to – and you don’t get wealth by studying languages nor children’s care. These are women jobs, so why should anyone pay high wages for what is a hobby.
And moreover, all have the social skills to get laid whatever the other study/job is. Even computer.
I am beeing ironic somewhere in this post. Just guess when.
I majored in English, with probably a 1:5 male:female ratio, and the English majors all slept with each other a lot. Now granted, this was a small liberal arts school in a small town, but I didn’t get that impression from most of the other majors. Well, except Women’s studies. They all slept together, but they comprised most of the lesbians at the school, so it was kind of inevitable.
That was more of a fun fact. Obviously picking your major based on if it’ll get you laid isn’t really the best plan.
By the way, I originally majored in theatre because I was an idealist fresh out of high school. I changed majors because the year and a half between the time I started college and when I changed my major made me cynical. Sex had nothing to do with it (for once).
The real secret is to not pick a major based on who you could date, and to not be afraid to date people from other majors.
My wife studied Microbiology with minors in Chemistry and History — I didn’t study any of those subjects in College (where we met). I studied Political Science with a minor in Web Design.
In fact, out of all of the women I dated in college, only one did I meet via my classes. Social interests are much more important than scholastic interests in dating in my experiences.
The first girl I hooked up with at college was my physics TA. So, it’s possible, and not only that – they’re far more likely to want to go see Wolverine VI: Occam’s Adamantine Razor than most girls you might meet at your typical kegger.
Joe, who is likely going to study mechanical engineering or something like that (and there are even less women than in CS), mocks Daniel for his choice… I wonder how that will work out…
He’s not criticizing him for his major, he’s criticizing him for his *target’s* choice of major. Based on that she is not what you would call a low-hanging fruit.
There’s about a 5:1 male:female ratio in my CS classes. It’s an even greater difference in my maths courses… it can be a little scary when all the guys stare at you…
As a female comp sci major, this comic bothers me. Electronically, the genders have been evenly represented for almost a decade. Every ditzy girl goes online thinking that she’s special because she’s a girl ONLINE, and is disappointed to learn that it’s just a myth… A very annoyingly ever-present stereotype that we all need to get over. GIRLS LIKE COMPUTERS. THERE ARE AS MANY GIRL NERDS AS THERE ARE GUY NERDS. GET OVER IT. On the other hand, Willis, I love your work and have for years… that’s kinda why this insults me. Now, back to reading, and possibly eating my words later.
1) It bothered you that the blatantly sexist character assumed there was only one girl?
2) There is a difference between girls being online and interested in CS and actually majoring in CS in college. We have not reached parity when it comes to women getting CS degrees.
I have a jaw deformity caused by an out of place jawbone that pinches a nerve. I need surgery to correct it, and it hurts to shut my mouth so I breath through my mouth. Because it’s easier.
“I’m just going to say it, shame on any of us who throws a trans child under the bus for thinking they’re going to get elected. That child deserves our support. Don’t worry about the pollsters calling it distractions, because we need to be the party of human dignity.”
Minnesota Star Tribune@startribune.com ⋅ 17h
Gov. Tim Walz is doubling down on trans rights — and criticizing members of his party who are retreating — at a time when the issue has become a political lightning rod nationally and back home in Minnesota.
they managed to get the arms and thighs to be different grays, which I wasn't sure they'd be able to do, the way the mold's set up
though maybe they're just producing a lot of extra thighs and/or arms in the wrong colors and throwing those away, i dunno
Cops are overgrown children cosplaying War, with all the rest of us forced into their stupid, childish game without our consent, consuming vast funds from the public treasury and ruining lives by the hundreds of thousands.

Joe’s expressions are full of win.
Yes, but he’s different, he wants a girl who would give up her dreams if they kept her from being with him.
It’s scary when Joe’s romantic advice actually makes sense.
Obviously Danny should try to date Shaggy :p
Shaggy probably wants to date Amber too, she looks like Velma.
Wait, did Shaggy like Velma, or was that just me pairing people off arbitrarily since the poor guy had no chance with Daphne with Fred around?
Velma really likes Shaggy. Shaggy really likes Scooby.
Shaggy’s kind of off.
“Kinda” being the understatement of the year, man.
That’s not fair. Shaggy is an incredibly talented guy. He just doesn’t compare well to the rest of the gang.
Obviously you watch Mystery Inc.
Wasn’t Shaggy shacking up with Daphne for awhile during one of the shows where it was just them, Scooby, and Scrappy?
Also during Mystery Inc. Velma wanted Shaggy to choose between her and his best friend Scooby, and she was a lot more serious about the relation than he was
He’d have to know something about dating to get action in spite of his chauvinism.
Danny is a mouthbreather?
Assuming Joe is using a negative tone when speaking, apparently it’s wrong to be in jaw-dropping awe of the world at all time. Well, some of us don’t get enough air otherwise.
Yeah I really wish the phrase “mouthbreater” would just die. Makes me feel crappy and self-conscious. just ’cause my nose dun’ work…
The fact that it’s always used maliciously doesn’t help.
I don’t know, I’ve always seen a difference between “mouthbreathers” and “people who happen to breathe via their mouths”
Believe it or not, obligate mouth breather is actually a medical term. Being forced to breath through your mouth can be caused by craniofacial deformities and other pathologies. I’m not sure if when it caught on as an insult that was the source, but there you go.
I actually graduated with a couple of identical twin sisters who got their CS degrees… the odds of that blow my mind.
I happen to be best friends with a female CS Major who is also a twin (the twin is not a cs major and considering their relationship THANK GOD). But she is actually really sensitive about people saying there are so few girl CS majors. Don’t get me wrong it is a minority in the field as far as I can tell I’m a math major myself.

I used to major in computer science. There were plenty of girls present ^^;
I also majored in CS (an equivalent actually, being in a different country and all), and not only there were plenty of girls, we also had a couple of former pageant contestants.
-airfox
i thought of him as a mouth breather, and now confirmation. the way Joe reacts to intro to comp. sciences is just hilarious.
half of th CS class I’m in right now is women…odd
Why Haven’t I seen Batman in their dorm?
Ethan siphoned off all of their Batman merch in the continuity reboot.
Maybe in this new universe they’re into a different superhero? Like Aquaman or The Elongated Man :p
“I’m Aquaman.”
I dunno, just doesn’t have the right ring to it.
Maybe they’re Marvel fans.
“I’m Moonknight!”
maybe they’re into image
“I’m Spawn!”
OUTRAGEOUS!
“I’m Sodomuffin?”
Nobody is into Aquaman. Nobody. Ever.
… Unless he’s chopping of his own right hand to save his son.
Also, epic mullet.
Aquaman is awesome as a king, but just so terrible as a superhero.
I always liked Aquaman… The old one, not the bitter bearded one (really love the version from “Batman – the Brave and the Bold”). As a kid, he was actually my favorite superhero. Might have something to do with living in a harbour city, but still…

Unless it’s Batman: The Brave and the Bold Aquaman.
OLD CHUM
That always sounds subtly threatening, given what chum is used for in an aquatic context.
He is quite the fun character.
I’m obviously going to the wrong school for my major. There’s only like, 5 in the entire department here.
Joe’s its the 21st Century. There’s probably just as many girls in Compter Science Classes as there are boys. Hell, some school have it as a requirement for various degrees.
For someone who doesn’t take the class, it’s understandable.
Hate to say it, but I’m pretty sure that’s still nowhere even close to true- a lot more women are in computer science nowadays than 15 years ago, including one of my housemates, but the first relevant result I find with a quick google search shows that Stanford has less than 10% of their graduating CS majors as female.

Really, it was supposed to be a game people could play on their own as they read.
with your penis.
Pretty much how anything computer-related works.
Oh hell yeah, Amber avatar.
It is a…Coinkidink as you say no?
I’ll let you all in on a secret: At both the graduate and undergraduate levels, the life sciences (biochemistry, molecular biology, neuroscience, biophysics, etc.) are probably the highest percentage female of any of the hard sciences in college.

I dunno. I hooked up with the one girl in CS in my year.
On the other hand, I’m not Danny.
Mouthbreather? What the hell kind of insult is that?
I guess I’ve never seen a severe “mouthbreather”, so I don’t see the atrocity.
(Then again, I’ve never been to an anime convention.)
He doesn’t stand a chance. Amber’s dating WoW.
Unless he goes in through WoW. He could be Amber’s internet boyfriend in this continuity.

*obligatory slashdot humour*
*Hopes that Joe’s “I am not amused” face becomes an avatar in the near future*
It’s true. It’s all true.
Wait what is Joe majoring in?
Joeing, with his penis.
Met my Wife though Computer Science. She sat by me in Intro Comp. Sci. but we didn’t date till a year later.

I AM THE 76TH MOUTH-BREATHING COMMENT! HEAR ME AND TREMBLE BEFORE MY AWFUL BREATH!
“Mouth Breathing” is not an insult.
I have a jaw deformity caused by an out of place jawbone that pinches a nerve. I need surgery to correct it, and it hurts to shut my mouth so I breath through my mouth. Because it’s easier.
Why people think this is an insult is beyond me.
I just dropped by to say “nailed it!”
