Hmm, revenge fanfic, revenge fanfic….. WILLIS! You’ve given me a great idea! This will be in the Dumbing of Age: Digital and Dino-Thunder Power Rangers crossover.
She needs to:
A) Shave her head
B) Start wearing glasses with different color lenses
C) Get the Dragons logo tattooed on her forehead. THEN she can write columns that take down tyrannical dictators.
I find it funny that Billie is learning the HARD way that college is completely different from high school. She still doesn’t seem to get that there are no ‘social groups’ so much anymore. I also enjoy that with high school people who ask me questions about college. First thing I tell them is to leave EVERYTHING they learned in high school behind. In college, they aren’t there to watch you make an ass out of yourself, there is no more ‘popularity contest’. I feel so self-gratified when I see their reactions to that.
To be fair, I think it depends on what you’re talking. During my college years, I was in various computer related programs (Computer science, then got mentally beaten and came back to just do computer programming, then interactive multimedia) and up until the third one, I got the same experience. There was no social structure, there was no top or bottom. Everyone was friends. It wasn’t until the third program, a postgrade program where I had to deal with a lot of artist-type douchebags, that I saw that change. However, even then it was only one or two people who were like that.
It can also depend on where you live. I’ve had friends from the US tell me what their college or university experience was like, and it in NO WAY matched mine or the one my older sisters had. A difference between US and Canadian colleges/universities? Maybe. or it could again be the program thing and my sisters and I just happened to be in programs that didn’t have these social structures stand as a part of it.
Anyway, Ultra Car’s existence in the Walkiverse kind of directly hinges on Joe being an abductee, remember? So unless we get a different explanation of super-human engineering prowess, probably no Ultra Car in the Dumbiverse.
I know there’s pretty much no chance of Ultra Car making an actual appearance as anything other than a joke (Maybe there’s a TV parody of Knight Rider?), but I’d love to see that, regardless.
Maybe it’s just me, but watching Billie get kicked in the face while she’s down, again and again and again, stopped being funny when Questionable Content was doing it to Marten, and that was before DoA even began.
I really don’t think the Billie-kicking is about making it funny at this point (I could be wrong). I think it’s about introducing her character to a situation she doesn’t really know how to handle and to see how she uses the opportunity to grow.
How many times does Billie need to be kicked before we can get to that character development? Once? Twice? Ten more times? I want an estimate, because to me, it’s already been more than enough for whatever character growth Willis is building towards. Ten more harassment’s from Ruth won’t exactly add anything the first four already haven’t, but I’m willing to bet we haven’t seen the end of it yet.
Changing everything a person believes about themselves, their environment, and the other people inhabiting that environment with them takes time. In comic time, it’s been what, a week? Two? Billie will start to change, we just can’t expect it to be as quickly as if every real day was a comic day.
It’s their third day. In that time, Billie has been harassed by Ruth on three separate occasions and physically hurt on two of them. I realize it often takes more than three days for someone to change, but with the pace this comic is going, I’m just afraid we’ll be stuck on kick-Billie mode for the next few years until comic time reaches the point where her shift can be realistic.
You’re right. Repeated kicking from the same person doesn’t accomplish anything other than forming a vendetta. However, when she’s getting the same sort of treatment from multiple people, it’s much harder for her to ignore. Remember, this is a comic so it’s hard to really get a sense of how often it is since it’s not showing all her other interactions when the spotlight isn’t on her.
College newspapers actually do pretty well- I worked on TNH at UNH and people always took a copy to read during breaks or meals. For bigger newspapers I think we’re just disillusioned with how biased they are, and turn to online sources where we can get multiple perspectives. at least in college newspapers (or at least the one I worked on) they try to keep the slant to a minimum.
or as much as anyone can, and still be interesting.
Oh god. I just read all of Joyce and Walky. It is blowing my mind how you are using the exact same characters in such a different setting!!! Depressed and noble Ruth is a evil dictator R.A.? Super-powered Walky and Sal are just regular people?! Joyce is annoyingly innocent again!?! GAAAAAAA-
Mike has weathered the transition to a new comic fairly well, however. I was surprised that his angry and aggressive behavior was never explained in Joyce and Walky….
He visits his parents with Amber in Shortpacked. You can get some backstory there. Though it might have been covered in It’s Walky!. Someone more familiar with the webcomic probably knows when it was first brought up.
I wonder how MANY of the walky characters will b recycled? I wonder if we will see Monkey Master as a kindly old professor…
The Cheese would make a good dean of students, I think.
Y’know, considering how blatantly antagonistic Ruth has acted towards pretty much everyone so far, I can’t imagine this would be a difficult thing to prove. Just stalk her with a camera for an hour or two and you’re bound to see her kicking someone over and stealing their lunch money or something.
And just a thought; for someone who shares the banner with Joyce and Billie, Sarah sure hasn’t made much of an impact at all, has she?
If newspapers, especially College newspapers, would put in a fanfiction part into their paper, they might get more readers/attention cause of that = sells more = MORE CASH.
At least given the HUGE amount of fanfics at fanfiction.net and other wbsites. There are tons of them and i remember a page of Sore thumbs in which the future son of Fairbanks told his father that in the future fanfics will be the main entertainment of everyone.
Might as well use it right now in this universe to be the first to swim in money. I´m sure there are alot of people who would like to read some revenge fic as long as Ruth is in it.
College newspapers don’t really make money or “sell more”, they’re basically volunteer things.
I actually did write some monthly fiction for my college newspaper, it was surprisingly popular. I think the main issue is that college newspaper editors aren’t necessarily that good in writing fiction, so they just don’t think of it.
So why exactly would people pay to read fan fiction when they can get it online? I have to say, I don’t want to pay to read *fan* fiction but I’d be willing to pay for original fiction.
There’s also a minor problem that fan fiction is technically ILLEGAL. Now, trying to close down fan fiction websites is like trying to bail out the ocean with a spoon. And the copy right holders don’t care (much), since nobody is making money off it.
Closing down a college newspaper, or getting them to cough over money (effectively closing them down, since college newspapers are broke) – it takes a letter, maybe a phone call, maybe even can be done by email.
Optimus Prime broke down and cried on the set of "Transformers" (2007) due to the extensive use of green screen filming. He reportedly said, "This is not why I became an actor."
“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 ⋅ 1d
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

Revenge Fic can be a column!
Hmm, revenge fanfic, revenge fanfic….. WILLIS! You’ve given me a great idea! This will be in the Dumbing of Age: Digital and Dino-Thunder Power Rangers crossover.
Yeah, like there isn’t Revenge Fan Fic in the newspapers already. They just call them Political Columns.
And they make for such good reading!
Zing!
She needs to:
A) Shave her head
B) Start wearing glasses with different color lenses
C) Get the Dragons logo tattooed on her forehead. THEN she can write columns that take down tyrannical dictators.
But only if she gets the gun.
TWO guns.
Transmetropolitan reference? You’re cool.
Na, he’s just well read.
Now fez’s? Fez’s are cool. So are stetsons.
What, are you from another planet or something?
Why yes they are, actually.
It’s called Gallifrey ^^
But the stetson will never be as cool as the fez.
You forgot bow-ties. I wear a bow tie now. Bow ties are cool.
She can start by writing a column about Ruth that’s just the word “Fuck” repeated eight thousand times. It’s traditional!
I like it when things go wrong for Billie, because she’s a bongo.
I like it when things go right for Billie, cause she’s a fun bongo.
I like it when things go left for Billie.
I like Billie.
Even though she yelled in your FAAAAACE?
That’s a really good reason to like her.
Cause she´s a Tsundere and yelling FAAAAACE is her form of telling others that she likes them?
And because she doesn’t own a Monkey Master to throw.
I like it when things go diagonally for Billie.
I like when things go in any direction involving gay sex with Billie.
Just cause it hasn’t happened yet doesn’t mean I can’t dream.
But by the same token, things ought to go wrong for Ruth, as well…
I think I like this ‘verse’s Daisy more than IW!’s.
There does seem to be more depth to her characterization this time around.
I like Daisy, I like her a lot.
And so, Billie demonstrates selective hearing. “You can____revenge____Indiana!”
And so, she takes a fedora and a whip and… I dunno, I’ve got nuthin.’
Tumblr!? I don’t even know ‘er!
….. I sense a deep throat parody coming up in the future….
They do say truth is stranger than fiction.
It’s not just about telling the truth, it’s telling it in a manner that is unbiased and believable.
Awesome look from Daisy, it’s a look I use far more often than I’d like.
…I still don’t get Tumblr.
It’s hipster livejournal
And here I thought Livejournal was hipster Livejournal.
Guess that means Tumbler is even more so.
It was, until it became too mainstream.
Do I want to know what the tagline under a ‘hope’ style poster of Ron Jeremy says?
Yes.
Clearly not, since I use it, and I’m as un-hipster as you can get.
Being a hipster by being un-hipster? HIPSTER.
I think you just broke my brain right there.
I find it funny that Billie is learning the HARD way that college is completely different from high school. She still doesn’t seem to get that there are no ‘social groups’ so much anymore. I also enjoy that with high school people who ask me questions about college. First thing I tell them is to leave EVERYTHING they learned in high school behind. In college, they aren’t there to watch you make an ass out of yourself, there is no more ‘popularity contest’. I feel so self-gratified when I see their reactions to that.
There are social groups. There are always social groups. People just try to say they’re not as important.
So… you LIE to your students?
Cause that’s pretty much the opposite of what college actually is.
In reality, the social groups are simply bigger, more ritualized, and totally disregard whatever you were before.
And you’re at the bottom again.
To be fair, I think it depends on what you’re talking. During my college years, I was in various computer related programs (Computer science, then got mentally beaten and came back to just do computer programming, then interactive multimedia) and up until the third one, I got the same experience. There was no social structure, there was no top or bottom. Everyone was friends.

OFF TO THE INTERNET!
Credibility is harder to gain there.
Why should I believe that?
I hate how Super Car isn’t on the poll…
Who is this Super Car you speak of?
Anyway, Ultra Car’s existence in the Walkiverse kind of directly hinges on Joe being an abductee, remember? So unless we get a different explanation of super-human engineering prowess, probably no Ultra Car in the Dumbiverse.
Ultra Car, yes sorry. Brain fart.
I know there’s pretty much no chance of Ultra Car making an actual appearance as anything other than a joke (Maybe there’s a TV parody of Knight Rider?), but I’d love to see that, regardless.
Maybe it’s just me, but watching Billie get kicked in the face while she’s down, again and again and again, stopped being funny when Questionable Content was doing it to Marten, and that was before DoA even began.
I really don’t think the Billie-kicking is about making it funny at this point (I could be wrong). I think it’s about introducing her character to a situation she doesn’t really know how to handle and to see how she uses the opportunity to grow.
Piccolo nailed it rather well. Billie’s dilemma isn’t suppose to be funny. It’s suppose to be a tool of character growth for her.
I get the exact same impression, Piccolo.
How many times does Billie need to be kicked before we can get to that character development? Once? Twice? Ten more times? I want an estimate, because to me, it’s already been more than enough for whatever character growth Willis is building towards. Ten more harassment’s from Ruth won’t exactly add anything the first four already haven’t, but I’m willing to bet we haven’t seen the end of it yet.

Remember, this is a comic so it’s hard to really get a sense of how often it is since it’s not showing all her other interactions when the spotlight isn’t on her.
Billie in the third panel needs to go on some Che Geuvara-esque shirt.
I concur. However, I’d respect Billie more than Che any day of the week. The guy was a nutcase.
If Daisy is going to nix an expose on Ruth then I’m not too sure she’ll have any more luck with a story on student vigilante Amazi-Girl.
That sure was a pretentious statement for someone in a dying media platform.
I like you.
Now more than ever, the newspapers have to keep their integrity.
Hey, they could have an online version!
College newspapers actually do pretty well- I worked on TNH at UNH and people always took a copy to read during breaks or meals. For bigger newspapers I think we’re just disillusioned with how biased they are, and turn to online sources where we can get multiple perspectives. at least in college newspapers (or at least the one I worked on) they try to keep the slant to a minimum.
or as much as anyone can, and still be interesting.
I like that she seemed to have to think about it for a moment – perhaps she’s already acquainted with Ruth?
I wonder how often Agatha’s had to say something like that.
“Daisy”
I meant Daisy, not Agatha. OOPS.
Oh god. I just read all of Joyce and Walky. It is blowing my mind how you are using the exact same characters in such a different setting!!! Depressed and noble Ruth is a evil dictator R.A.? Super-powered Walky and Sal are just regular people?! Joyce is annoyingly innocent again!?! GAAAAAAA-
Mike has weathered the transition to a new comic fairly well, however. I was surprised that his angry and aggressive behavior was never explained in Joyce and Walky….
Ya, are we ever going to learn something about mike’s back story….. especially in the shortpacked/walky+ universe?
He visits his parents with Amber in Shortpacked. You can get some backstory there. Though it might have been covered in It’s Walky!. Someone more familiar with the webcomic probably knows when it was first brought up.
I wonder how MANY of the walky characters will b recycled? I wonder if we will see Monkey Master as a kindly old professor…
The Cheese would make a good dean of students, I think.
Monkey Master already appears as a cartoon character (and toy). If Cheese every appeared, it would be the same. No sci-fi stuff in this universe.
That makes two of us
(Joe glasses) Yep, they’a gonna bang any minute now.
College newspapers sure are more choosy in this universe than in mine.
Y’know, considering how blatantly antagonistic Ruth has acted towards pretty much everyone so far, I can’t imagine this would be a difficult thing to prove. Just stalk her with a camera for an hour or two and you’re bound to see her kicking someone over and stealing their lunch money or something.

I just realized that if this was an independent romantic comedy, Billie and Ruth would be bumping girlie parts by the end of the second act.
Because as we all know, when your first impression of someone is to hate them it means you are secretly meant for each other.
Psh, everyone knows revenge fics go on LiveJournal.
I’m feeling Billie’s getting a bit too much of the poo end of the stick right now
Hope there’s no bell tower at this college…
Okay, I just need to acknowledge the epic Doctor Who reference that turkishproverb made… Fez’s ARE cool!
Also, do Ruth’s boobs say dragons?
Is there a layer oops in the fourth panel or is her face supposed to have a pinkish halo?
(Love the comic, by the way!)
my face slowly went like this-.- o.o 0.0 O o O i fresak out s now
what college are they attending?
You little shit, as a tumblr i take offense to that.
*eagerly awaits the strip where Billie realizes she’s NOT the shit*
She considered it.
