This is when we leave shenanigans and enter the truly intimate moment Becky craved. Look into her eyes, Becky (not the hat-eyes, the Dina-eyes) and use your words. Tell her the experience you want to have with her. Tell her why. Tell her about how she makes you feel.
And Dina has finally registered that even for their standards, there is something amiss in their relationship. She is anxious for small changes in Becky’s behavior. She has understood that Becky wants SOMETHING, but what?
Now they will talk and they will reassure each other of their relationship, and there might be mouth smooches, and hats might come off and there will be a truly intimate moment and EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
She worked in a toy store and acted like a supervillain. But she’s not the much more notable character who worked in a toy store and acted like a supervillain, she’s a different one.
…Retail changes people, man. For example, I’ve never met a current or former retail worker who doesn’t react violently to Christmas music.
Eh, real Christmas music is okay, it’s the faux-music with “rich” choruses (sort of like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir’s take, but more schmaltzy) that drove me up the wall.
Still not as bad as the endless loop of sort-of-Mexican horns adorning the covers of the pop music of that year. That lasted far longer than the Christmas season.
You naughties and teenies retail workers had it easy. We 90’s kids had WNUA. Smooth jazz, 100-song playlist, Kenny G on a loop, 60-80 hours a week. It RUINED 80’s porn for me.
Heh. We had WJZZ growing up, a station that did not play jazz (I have standards). Prepending “smooth” in front of anything (with the exception of peanut butter) is not a good sign.
I actually met Kenny G. back when he replaced the saxophonist in a band I liked. Nice fellow, but no, he definitely didn’t play as well as the original.
I work two jobs. One is in retail, where I’ve been for years. The other is as a music teacher. My boss is mandating that these kids learn Christmas songs. One of them has been learning Paint It Black all month. I’m not changing course.
I worked at a coffee shop and sang songs for all our flavours.
I see a Red Roast and I want to drink it bla-ack
No cream and sugar here, I want to drink it bla-ack
I see the girls walk by, they’re drinking frappuccinos,
I have to turn my eyes until my darkness goes
Dwenh dweenh dweenh dweenh dweenh dweenh dweenh
Dweenh dwenh dweenh dwenh dwenh dwenh…
(Similarly, My Sharona became My Verona. And “c’mon baby, brew the mocha-potion” cracked up the baby boomers. I’m really lucky my co-workers liked me.)
Back in my teen days, I worked retail at a toy store during Christmas and don’t hate Christmas music or retail. I actually thought it was a lot of fun, connecting people to presents that would make their children happy and generally getting to celebrate a lot of good cheer. Oh, and getting paid. Teenage me thought that was pretty sweet, too.
I thought it wasn’t working retail but working at a mall that made people twitchy? You get incredible levels of noise from one promotion-scheme or another, i.e. someone talking over a mike with or without music ‘appropriate to season’ playing. Having that around 8h a day 5 days each year would have me stark raving mad, I cannot imagine how people deal with this shit on a daily basis.
…. granted *I* wasn’t fooled, because I know full well that the comics are all a single image file and thus wouldn’t load with some panels completely full and others just partially there. But, you know, apparently 3 other peeps had the same thought.
your bank account numbers? Wow I’ve never memorized them at any point. Really only use them if setting up direct deposit or something, and it’s not like I change jobs that often!
As for phone numbers, now with cell phones mine is the only one I know. My brother, my aunt, my best friend… I’d have to look in my phone for any of them.
I guess it varies with circumstances. I memorized my savings and checking account numbers when I had a lot of checks to cash at one point. I also ended up memorizing one of my credit card numbers and the 3 digit CVV on the back as a result of making frequent payments online (and choosing not to store that information).
Get a phone number that is meaningful. In my case, the last four numbers are 7335 … which spells out P-E-D-L. A perfect choice for someone who goes by the moniker of Bicycle Bill.
I have my phone set to display the number on the home screen, because that’s the only way I know what it is. I not only never call myself, I don’t have any reason to keep anyone’s number in meat memory anymore. The phone does that. I still remember friends’ home phone numbers from 35 years ago, but Mom’s current cell number, which is the number I call most often? Not a clue.
I do have one ex-girlfriend’s number that I remember because it had a funny and mildly obscene mnemonic. I haven’t talked to her in years, but I still remember her phone number.
I thoroughly memorized my SSN long before I finished filling out paperwork for college. I was kind of surprised that Becky hadn’t memorized hers the same way, because it implies that butthole dad did her paperwork for her. I would have guessed that he’d hand her a pile of stuff and say, “This is where you’re going to college, fill it out.”
I didn’t think I’d be this excited by it – she wasn’t one of my favourites or anything – but seeing made me realize how much I MISSED her oh my goodness <3
I love how she is the one person that fully and truly buys into Galasso’s madness. OF COURSE the path to global dominance comes with running a toy store or pizza (and subs) restaurant. Only FOOLS disagree.
Heck, I think most of the cast would accept Sydney, since she’s easy to please and would probably kill Mary with an acid pit within her first week of RA-ing.
Couldn’t think of any fitting music for Dina and Becky, so here’s some Your Favorite Martian for Sydney!
My grandmama used to tell me one day I would be queen!
And that it could be me to put these dreams into a sling
And fling ’em like a bullet til they bean the whole ruling regime in the melon!
Then I tell them I’m gonna reign supreme!
But it seems I’m a damn salmon swimmin’ upstream!
I scream cause I know why the caged bird sings…
I’ll adorn the king’s throne, wear his treasure with pleasure!
Cause this Jobe is temporary, success if forever!
Workin’ every week at a job I can’t stand!
I always tell myself that one day I’ll be the man!
What we gonna do tonight, Brain?!
We’re gonna take over the world! (gonna take over the world! )
Nananannanana nananana!
What we gonna do tonight, Brain?!
We’re gonna take over the world!
If Sydney has yet to get her diploma then that means she’s still in high school so at least her megalomania can be attributed to her age thus making her a realistic character in a more realistic universe.
Wow! Suddenly I have a bad feeling that Becky will end up in the bed next to Ruth’s after going berserk and trying to rip off the hats of everyone in town whilst screaming something about ‘the forbidden fruit’.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I’m thankful for this webcomic, and the fact that it can elicit so many emotions out of so many people. So, yeah. Awesome!
“I see you have been distracted by the false eyes on my hat. Do not be alarmed. This is a common method to deter predators used in the animal kingdom, though insufficient evidence exists to indicate whether any of the known dinosaurs had similar patterns.”
I love the panel arrangement. Really sells an important detail: The two last panels are the same height. Becky didn’t look back down, this is Dina moving up to reestablish eye contact, all confused.
It took me longer than I’m embarassed to admit to realise whether that was Becky looking back down or Dina propping herself up. I believe we have a hat-talk inbound – fortunately, Dina’s already used to find people’s behaviour odd and people finding her behaviour odd, so, strangely for a Willis comic, and especially ironic for this particular strip, there are FOOOOLS, but I very much doubt this will be their undoing.
Guys, there’s evidence for potential voter fraud on Trump’s part (more votes were tabulated for him than ballots were actually cast) in three of the most important swing states, and Jill Stein is trying to fund recounts to reveal said fraud. They already managed to fund one recount and are about 1/4 of the way to the next one. If fraud is revealed, not only would this prevent a Trump presidency, it would disempower his supporters tremendously. Seriously, please look at it.
Election integrity experts have independently identified Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin as states where “statistical anomalies” raised concerns. Our effort to recount votes in those states is not intended to help Hillary Clinton.
These recounts are part of an election integrity movement to attempt to shine a light on just how untrustworthy the U.S. election system is. (emphasis mine)
I did not vote for Trump, and if this turns out to be true and causes him to have to step aside, then so be it and I’m all for it. But it is still a bad precedent to set, twisting other peoples’ words for your own purposes.
^ The effort may not be intended to help Clinton, but since Trump is the one who won, getting busted for election fraud would definitely hurt him. Hurting Trump =/= helping Clinton.
Well, not quite. If Trump got busted by election fraud (and that’d be a long stretch, even if the recount came to anything), then Clinton wins by default. In a race between only two people, hurting one IS helping the other, even if only collaterally.
I was talking about intention wise – the OP was talking about how this would hurt the Trump administration, not how it would help the Clinton one. Bill was talking about how this wasn’t intended to help Hillary and I was pointing out the OP never said anything about helping Hillary, just hurting Trump.
You are correct that hurting one is helping the other in a two person race.
For some reason the first few panels made me think that Becky’s storyline was about to veer off into identity theft since she’s shouting in a public place about her SSN and how she has it on a separate piece of paper on the table. But that would be weird lmao
With all the stress Becky has gone through it is unreal how well she has been doing. When she saw all her family in her house then told everyone she was fine, made me think she was faking it. Now she is having a nervous breakdown of sorts.
“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.”

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

“…what, (some of) her eyes are up there!”
Spike Trotman working at Galasso’s now?
I was just about to make the exact same “eyes are up there” joke.
I think a good chunk of the commenters wanted to make that joke.
Yeah, the tags and alt-text kinda undercut your joke.
I admit, not the greatest of my hair-brained schemes
this may be interesting. consider my attention gained
My eyes are down here
I wish a woman would look at me the way my girlfriend looks at my head.
wait, why isn’t dina smiling anymore
also SYDNEY YUSSSSSSSSSSS
SYDNEY NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
SYDNEY POSSIBLE!
FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLS
FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL! GALASSO SHALL WIELD THIS ‘DIPLOMA’!
I like Sidney’s new hercut
aw yussssssss.
Au jus? I love au jus! Especially with sammidges!!
But it makes the sandwiches soggy!
I think she’s beginning to be disturbed by Becky’s hat fixation
No fair paying attention.
Not disturbed by it per se, merely…perplexed.
Whereas if Dina was covered in plastic, she may be…perspexed. xD
no she would be spandexed
What is going on?
Sydney has been introduced into the cast, her NCA with Shortpacked! finally expiring.
Someone just came in?
And I say, hey yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah! Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah! I said hey!
What’s going on?!
Dooooooooooooooooooooofuses
….maybe I should elaborate a bit.
This is when we leave shenanigans and enter the truly intimate moment Becky craved. Look into her eyes, Becky (not the hat-eyes, the Dina-eyes) and use your words. Tell her the experience you want to have with her. Tell her why. Tell her about how she makes you feel.
And Dina has finally registered that even for their standards, there is something amiss in their relationship. She is anxious for small changes in Becky’s behavior. She has understood that Becky wants SOMETHING, but what?
Now they will talk and they will reassure each other of their relationship, and there might be mouth smooches, and hats might come off and there will be a truly intimate moment and EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Or in short: Dooooooooooooofuses
I’m gonna be SO CROSS if there aren’t smooches preceded by talking
You and Becky both
‘and then they did it’
“Fade to Black.”
Second to last panel – closeup on Dina’s hat hitting the floor
Hi, Syndey. Guess the tag indicates we’ll be seeing you again.
Well, Sydney does appear in a preview panel for a different comic (for the 28th) on the tumblr page.
honestly i’m nostalgic for a good old “take over the world” plot
After this election?
A more “comical” one, and not “oh dear god it’s happening to us”.
The two are not mutually exclusive. The next four years should be entertaining whether it dips into horror territory or not.
Hypnotism?
FOOLS
MR.T: Someone here demanding my PITY–AGAIN?
*plays the theme to THE A-TEAM on the hacked Muzak*
*Galasso gets papercut*
SYDNEY: “Galasso has fallen! Say hello to your new manager!!“
THIS IS NOT EVEN MY FINAL FORM
Becky: GEEZ, THERE’S LIKE, EIGHT MORE PAGES
And two of them are questions about combat skills.
FOOLS
Sydney looks good with that hair. And is that a purple tint? Nice.
FOOOL, she is RAD, and with this symbol of independence she will CONQUER THE WORLD! FOOL!
¿Quien es Sydney?
Minor recurring character from Shortpacked.
She worked in a toy store and acted like a supervillain. But she’s not the much more notable character who worked in a toy store and acted like a supervillain, she’s a different one.
…Retail changes people, man. For example, I’ve never met a current or former retail worker who doesn’t react violently to Christmas music.

You know you were working late when Danae Alexander came on with “Lights Out, Chicago.”
Heh. We had WJZZ growing up, a station that did not play jazz (I have standards). Prepending “smooth” in front of anything (with the exception of peanut butter) is not a good sign.
I actually met Kenny G. back when he replaced the saxophonist in a band I liked. Nice fellow, but no, he definitely didn’t play as well as the original.

I worked in a mall for many years, only a couple doors down from the singing bears. Those suckers were on a 5-minute song cycle, man.
That question will be answered as soon as this countdown finishes.

Excuse me Becky but her real set of eyes are down there…no that’s to low damn it.
Sydney looks amazing!

*Sydney

Can we trick her into saying Yendys?
It is now pitch dark. If you proceed you will likely fall into a pit.You have been eaten by a grue.
see something you like?
Sydney?
That the crazy world power takeover person who was Shortpackeds
Gallasso’s greatest protagonist!
…. you’ll have to narrow that down some.
A bit.
Dun dun dunnnnnn. I sense…
…RESOLUTION!!!
Nah, I predict we’re going to get this drawn out for at least a month, more like a month and ten days, before we see a resolution.
Dina sees the church of scientology in the distance
Please tell me I’m not the only one who stared at the last two panels thinking they hadn’t finished loading yet…
Oh thank god it wasn’t just me
You’re not.
Same.
You are not the only one.
You’re not.
…. granted *I* wasn’t fooled, because I know full well that the comics are all a single image file and thus wouldn’t load with some panels completely full and others just partially there. But, you know, apparently 3 other peeps had the same thought.
It was just a split second.
Eeyup.
I didn’t, but it did take me a couple seconds to figure out that Willis hadn’t accidentally uploaded an incomplete strip.
To quote Lisa Kudrow: ‘Hey what’s my phone number? ….Well, I never call me!’
I mean I can recite my phone/bank numbers now out of memory, but it took a while of repeatedly having to use it/give it out.
your bank account numbers? Wow I’ve never memorized them at any point. Really only use them if setting up direct deposit or something, and it’s not like I change jobs that often!
As for phone numbers, now with cell phones mine is the only one I know. My brother, my aunt, my best friend… I’d have to look in my phone for any of them.

Her eyes are down here.
Stop getting tunnel vision, Becky!
More like letterbox vision, am I right?
…
I’ll see myself out.
Okay Becks, it’s fessin’ up time. TALK TO HER ALREADY
NO! IT’S GONE TOO FAR NOW! ANY RATIONAL CONVERSATION WILL BE AN ANTICLIMAX!
BUT ONE THAT DOESN’T LEAD TO SAD DINA
NO WANT SAD
NO! IT’S TOO LATE! THE HAT HI-JINKS MUST ENSUE FOR LO, WE ARE ALREADY SPEAKING IN CAPS!
*flees for dear punning life*
The latest development of this storyline certainly is a thrillby-er.
“I’m… I’m sorry, Dina. I only love you for your scalp.”
Perverse Scalp Lust.
… sounds a lot worse than it actually is.
Undercuts for all! I’ve been debating getting one too.
I considered it at one point, but then I remembered that’d involve getting off my ass to go to a barber.
is Becky passing out? is she ok?
She’s swooning.
She’s a swooning broad.
Sugar crash. How many refills has she had?
Sydney’s got a new ‘do. And I wonder if Galasso placed an ad that really clicked with her.
I really hope it’s a hat fetish thing and not a passing out thing. Dina’s expression is concerning.
“I really hope it’s a hat fetish thing” is the next DoA book title, right?
Ditto.
Her eyes are down there, Becky!
But her hat’s eyes are up there!
Guys, you’re spelling Syndey’s name wrong.
Or is it Willis who is spelling it wrong, I’m so confused!
It’s Sydney on his Twitter.
The tag is probably a typo.
Awwwwwww yussssssss
Sydney looks very different in DOA XD
Wait, the waitress has a character tag in her first appearance? Damn you Willis!
Pretty sure everyone from the old comics does I think.
C’mon Becky, enough with skull-king around this.
… are you suggesting that it is time for her to bring things to a head?
She needs to come clean and admit she wants to bonnet.
So does working at glasses automatically come with a minor in villainy?
I think it’s some sort of intern-ship. Learning by the heels of the master… until it’s time to backstab him and shout FOOL
Intern-ships are the best ships. Hm… I ship… Ryan and… a tree chipper.
Please may I name your ship Rypper?
Well, here’s a bottle of champagne. Have at it.
how very Rule of Two.
I always knew this day would come, but now that it has I’m uncertain how to feel about Sydney actually showing up.
And that uncertainty will be your undoing. FOOL
Subtle, Sydney, real subtle.
Judging by Bagge’s comments tonight, I feel like she is having a positive reaction to the introduction of Sidney.
Possibly.
Maybe.
Maybe not.
But maybe.
FOOL
Oh, and did you ever see the link I sent you to my groom’s speech?
Yeah, but I haven’t had time to click it yet. I’m busy shouting FOOL on the internet.
And that will be -your- undoing!
Actually, I can’t find it right now. Mind posting it again?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxoOx2tk5GA&feature=youtu.be&t=47
Huh. Hadn’t checked out your guys’ podcast yet, so I had no idea you had such a regal voice! Guess I should have expected it.
That was suitably badass! She’s a lucky woman.
Aren’t we all?
I didn’t think I’d be this excited by it – she wasn’t one of my favourites or anything – but seeing made me realize how much I MISSED her oh my goodness <3
Me to.
I love how she is the one person that fully and truly buys into Galasso’s madness. OF COURSE the path to global dominance comes with running a toy store or pizza (and subs) restaurant. Only FOOLS disagree.
Could Mr. T be Sydney’s father?
sydney must be a rebellious child then. mr. t pities the fools. sydney has nothing but scorn for them!
Oh jeez, Sydney exists
Forgot that that was a thing
AND THAT WILL BE YOUR UNDOING!
FOOOOOOOOOOL
I think we’ve met the new RA who will make the cast beg to have Ruthless back!
That would be a wonderful twist
Heck, I think most of the cast would accept Sydney, since she’s easy to please and would probably kill Mary with an acid pit within her first week of RA-ing.
I love the page design in the end. Becky staring at the hat, and Dina moving into view. THIS is where the intimate moment begins.
I KNOW I LOVE THIS STRIPS ENDING PANEL(S)!
And that moment will be your undoing! (But, like… in a good way?) FOOL!
Bagge seems quite happy tonight and for that I am glad. It is fun to see/read and awesome people being happy is good, regardless.
I didn’t realize my mood was part of the comment section reading experience, but I’m glad for it
And I am indeed happy today, because today is BECKY AND DINA DAY!!!!!
Don’t forget Sydney.
FOOL.
OMG It’s Sydney Yus!
Welp, Dina just realized something’s going on here. Will Becky finally girl up and spill the beans?
Having fun, Bagge? XD
….and here I thought I was all subtle and shit
XD So am I, honestly. I missed Sydney.
You thought wrong… FOOL!
Bagge.
A few years ago, my oldest son wanted to be a stealthy ninja.
So he crouched down behind the bush and announced loudly that he was now hiding and therefore being a ninja.
Just apropos of nothing.
That’s awesome, but that’s a level of stealth I cannot yet aspire to.
My youngest kid has been various animals this last week. Yesterday it was a dog, now some kind of dinosaur. Parenting – it’s never boring.
Couldn’t think of any fitting music for Dina and Becky, so here’s some Your Favorite Martian for Sydney!
My grandmama used to tell me one day I would be queen!
And that it could be me to put these dreams into a sling
And fling ’em like a bullet til they bean the whole ruling regime in the melon!
Then I tell them I’m gonna reign supreme!
But it seems I’m a damn salmon swimmin’ upstream!
I scream cause I know why the caged bird sings…
I’ll adorn the king’s throne, wear his treasure with pleasure!
Cause this Jobe is temporary, success if forever!
Workin’ every week at a job I can’t stand!
I always tell myself that one day I’ll be the man!
What we gonna do tonight, Brain?!
We’re gonna take over the world! (gonna take over the world! )
Nananannanana nananana!
What we gonna do tonight, Brain?!
We’re gonna take over the world!
Becky uses her words, takes off Dina’s hat. This leads organically to behavior that ensures she will never have a job at Galasso’s.
save it for the slipshine, kids
I want to know what Sydney is getting her degree in, because I never got true power with mine, and I feel cheated.
i would like to know so i can enroll in that degree program. I’m kind of out of ideas and true power sounds nice
Well, while you look into true power, Wolfen asked if anybody’d seen you around, so you might want to stop by and say hello.
Enlisted at Trump University?
I want it to be modern poetry or Russian literature or something similar.
French. I need an excuse to learn French again.
Mechanical or electrical engineering would strike me as valid candidates :v
Come on, Becky: use your words.
I take it this Sydney is a fun character? I clicked the name and see one DofA comic. Which comic should I look into to find out more about her?
(Only know she’s female from the comments. Would have said “them.”)
Shortpacked is the comic you should look for.
Or you could take a look at the Walkypedia:
http://walkypedia.wikia.com/wiki/Sydney_Yus
Oh it’s THAT Sydney. It’d been so long since I read Shortpacked who she was managed to get lost.
Prepare for ham.
If Sydney has yet to get her diploma then that means she’s still in high school so at least her megalomania can be attributed to her age thus making her a realistic character in a more realistic universe.
Don’t you also get a diploma when you receive your bachelor’s degree from a University?
If Sydney is a senior in high school she’s only about a year younger than the main cast.
She hasn’t had the humbling small-fish-in-a-big-pond experience yet, but it probably wouldn’t make a difference anyway.
As she refers to Becky and Dina as “freshmen,” I think she’s talking about her university diploma.
Wow! Suddenly I have a bad feeling that Becky will end up in the bed next to Ruth’s after going berserk and trying to rip off the hats of everyone in town whilst screaming something about ‘the forbidden fruit’.
No, Dina! What are you doing?! Get out of the Phantom Zone!!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I’m thankful for this webcomic, and the fact that it can elicit so many emotions out of so many people. So, yeah. Awesome!
FOOL!
I lost it
10/10, quality comic
“I see you have been distracted by the false eyes on my hat. Do not be alarmed. This is a common method to deter predators used in the animal kingdom, though insufficient evidence exists to indicate whether any of the known dinosaurs had similar patterns.”
+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1
(and not entirely inaccurate, even if alarm was not the feeling evoked in Becky)
Sydney, long time no see.
“Why are you looking at me so strangely, Becky?”
Becky’s next line seems likely to be a cry of: “I must see her scalp” followed by an undignified tussle.
Is the new girl Sombra during her early years ?
I mean, Carla is a thing, so Omnics can’t be that far.
Pssst Wispy Carla is a fleshsack here
As a general rule of thumb, all people are synthetic infiltrators in disguise until sufficient evidence to the contrary is provided.
THIS ONE KNOWS! SEIZE THEM…! Er, I mean: I have no idea what your post is supposed to mean.
I’m disturbed to find out that Sydney Yus is basically me.
(Comes to comment to make “Eyes are down here” joke.)
(CTRL-F’s that shit first)
Dammit.
I feel your pain, for it is mine.
Do I see drama starting with that expression?
I wonder if she’s seeing something behind Becky.
Sydney Yus’ new haircut is so good it makes me forget that now both she and Lucy have lost the the giant adorable pigtails.
Galasso’s Pizza (and Subs) spinoff when? You’ve got Lucy, Sayid, Zangief, Conquest and Sydney there.
I’m starting to think Willis is setting the stage for being able to make Shortpacked-style jokes again.
After the “Walking with Dina” sequence, follows “A Day at Galasso’s Pizza (and Subs.”
Who is Zangief?
A hairy-chested russian wrestler.
Where did HE show up? Is this a Patreon thing?
I think Spencer meant
GuileBalrogDhalsim.Yeah, Blanka. How could we forget him?
That’s the chinese sumo wrestler. You know, the one named after a bike.
GodDAMN I missed the joke. Shame on me! How could I forget Chun-Li?
I love the panel arrangement. Really sells an important detail: The two last panels are the same height. Becky didn’t look back down, this is Dina moving up to reestablish eye contact, all confused.
Very true. And the smile is gone. Shit just got real, Becky!
It took me longer than I’m embarassed to admit to realise whether that was Becky looking back down or Dina propping herself up. I believe we have a hat-talk inbound – fortunately, Dina’s already used to find people’s behaviour odd and people finding her behaviour odd, so, strangely for a Willis comic, and especially ironic for this particular strip, there are FOOOOLS, but I very much doubt this will be their undoing.
Don’t snatch the hat off, Becky. Just ask.
Guys, there’s evidence for potential voter fraud on Trump’s part (more votes were tabulated for him than ballots were actually cast) in three of the most important swing states, and Jill Stein is trying to fund recounts to reveal said fraud. They already managed to fund one recount and are about 1/4 of the way to the next one. If fraud is revealed, not only would this prevent a Trump presidency, it would disempower his supporters tremendously. Seriously, please look at it.
https://jillstein.nationbuilder.com/recount
From the website:
^ The effort may not be intended to help Clinton, but since Trump is the one who won, getting busted for election fraud would definitely hurt him. Hurting Trump =/= helping Clinton.
It COULD, but the OP didn’t say that either.
Well, not quite. If Trump got busted by election fraud (and that’d be a long stretch, even if the recount came to anything), then Clinton wins by default. In a race between only two people, hurting one IS helping the other, even if only collaterally.
I was talking about intention wise – the OP was talking about how this would hurt the Trump administration, not how it would help the Clinton one. Bill was talking about how this wasn’t intended to help Hillary and I was pointing out the OP never said anything about helping Hillary, just hurting Trump.
You are correct that hurting one is helping the other in a two person race.
Oh, right. Carry on, then.
So… I thought the comic was still loading for, like, a minute.
For some reason the first few panels made me think that Becky’s storyline was about to veer off into identity theft since she’s shouting in a public place about her SSN and how she has it on a separate piece of paper on the table. But that would be weird lmao
Glad I’m not the only one. Chekhov’s Gun, after all…
I’m sure we’ll see that happen… About 13 years from now, when Willis attempts the world record of callbacks.
What IS the world record of callbacks I wonder?
I think it’s currently 8-bit Theater with a callback about nine years in the making. Could be wrong, though.
I wonder if it isn’t Willis emphasizing the juxtaposition of the menacing eyes on Dina’s hat alongside the besmitten look in Dina’s own eyes.
Loving Sydney’s new ‘do.
The last two panels being shorter made me think Becky was losing consciousness and a panicked for a second.
After prolonged, up-close Dina exposure, Becky is finally succumbing to the deadly effects of cuteness overload
With all the stress Becky has gone through it is unreal how well she has been doing. When she saw all her family in her house then told everyone she was fine, made me think she was faking it. Now she is having a nervous breakdown of sorts.
What’s the deal with all these diminished panels now?
