    Dina notices the important things =3

    1. AngryBamboo

      some men are predisposed toward large posteriors and are incapable of prevaricating on the subject…

      1. Blob Marley

        Thou brethren cannot refute aforementioned preference.

      2. Cholma

        Their male siblings cannot dispute these facts.

        1. NF

          On occasions when a female with a superior waist-to-hip ratio is observed arousal is inevitably consequent.

        2. Raoullefere

          The cause thereof, that these men ascertain that the area of said female’s gluteus maximus and associated tissues have the appearance of being replete.

        3. GrrArg42

          And here I thought it was about large tracts of land.

        4. Tucker

          And thus thee become aware of her perchance to trousers, and consequently are unable to avert thy eyes.

        5. Raen

          As such they wish to rendezvous with and photograph such women; despite the warnings of their various comrades, the posteriors of such women cause them libidos reminiscent of the clichéd self-presentations of Southeast Asian prostitutes to American servicemen.

        6. Roborat

          And threads like this is why I love this comic.

        7. LaurelRaven

          Darn. Exactly what I was thinking.

        8. bhtooefr

          Proceeding, the male addresses the female by describing the unwrinkled epidermis of the female’s posterior, and offers the female conveyance in his luxury automobile produced by Daimler-Benz Aktiengesellschaft. He also invites the female to take advantage of his material wealth, due to her exceptional characteristics compared to other females that pursue him.

      3. TPman

        Form creases on the epidermal layer/
        You express a desire to penetrate my luxury car/
        actuate, utilize and exploit my self/
        For thou stand elevated above my admirers/

        That was a lot harder than I thought it would be

        1. TPman

          I have observed gyrations of the hips of others.
          Let us dismiss with the wooing, for you have already been lubricated,
          put in motion like a super battleship.

      4. Jeff K!

        You guys are awesome. In fact, this exact comment thread inspired this Norman Tweeter video.

    2. Joe H

      The most important of all.

    3. corporatebastard

      gentlemen, gentlemen, does your significant other possess a superior waist to hip ratio?

      1. Dr.Z

        Truly!

      2. Joey

        The second derivative about her midriff is most pronounced, indeed!

  2. Raen

    Ohmigod, Becky…

    1. Yotomoe

      Becky: Jennifer! Why must you tell me about EVERY girl with a large butt? Are you trying to say something to me?

      1. Aizat

        Hey, it’s round and plump….or so I’ve been told.

      2. Doctor_Who

        Jennifer: Yes, Becky, I’ve been trying to break it too you gently but…we feel your Butt’s Disease has gone out of control. The teachers won’t accept any more homework with butts drawn on it. You need to stop ending every text you send with (_!_). And art class is…well, we’re up to the Renaissance now, so you’re doing alright in art class.

        We all care about you very much and have written you a letter. It’s right-hey, where did the letter go? No, dammit Becky, stop drawing butts on our intervention letter!

        1. Yotomoe

          Becky: I DON’T HAVE A PROBLEM!
          Jennifer: You’re touching my butt right now.
          Becky: *Gasp*

        2. Mal

          Reading this thread has given me a greater appreciation for the opening of Sir-Mix-alot’s Baby Got Back.

    2. Wack'd

      Considering that this universe does have a Becky and she’s about as conservative as Joyce…oh man. I laughed. Thanks for that.

      1. SpaceInvader42

        Also, Billie’s first name is Jennifer, and she does have a butt of considerable size.

    3. Jimmy

      My anaconda don’t want none unless you got buns hun.

  3. MarcinMN

    Butts Disease strikes again??

    1. Effie

      It’s an epidemic.

      1. Aizat

        A butt-demic, you mean.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          It defies ANALysis.

        2. Sam

          An epbuttdemic?

        3. Wixvhen

          … Sphincter.

        4. Undrave

          Butt butt butt? Butt butt butt, butt butt. Butt butt butt!!

        5. Fannonymous

          Let’s hear from the other side…((i))

        6. CWR

          Badgers badgers badgers badgers badgers badgers badgers!

        7. begbert2

          Ah snake ah snake! Snake! Snake! Oh, it’s a snake!

        8. Usayasha

          The puns seem to have stopped. This must be rectified.

        9. Roborat

          Muskrat, muskrat, muskrat, muskrat?

        10. Fannonymous

          Pfft! Questionable Content.

        11. Dave

          Robble robble, robble robble robble.

  4. Wonder Wig

    No one tell Dina that it was Amber’s posterior that killed the dinosaurs.

  5. Plasma Mongoose

    Dina knows that guys like big butts and that’s no lie…

    1. Kernanator

      She also knows that other brother’s cannot deny.

      1. Yotomoe

        However When a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist….

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          It’s enough to make a man shoot his paste… 😀

        2. Aizat

          And a round thing in your face…….

        3. Doctor_Who

          Ouch!

          I just got sprung. Man, that smarts.

        4. Yotomoe

          That’s cuz you’re a smartass
          PLAY ME OFF JOHNNY!

        5. Reiku

          C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!

          -plays generic piano playoff-

        6. Spazman

          I read geriatric piano playoff at first, lol

  6. Kernanator

    Stay classy, Dina.

  7. diremoi

    Dina, that gesture implies things you may not want it to.

    Or perhaps that IS what you want to imply. either way, I’m sure the fans don’t mind.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      But they way she is holding her hands in Panel 5 suggests a boob-groping pose rather than a butt-grabbing one.

      1. Nearphotison

        I guess it would depend on how the gropee is posed…

      2. Yotomoe

        Apparently Amber has a boob ass. I’m not sure if this is superior to Ass boobs or not.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          I wonder what medical science has to say about that.

        2. Wixvhen

          Where do you think Dina got it from?

        3. Raoullefere

          Perhaps Dina’s learned to imitate the prey-seizing motion of the Grabassaur

      3. Bill M.

        Butt-grabbing when sitting down, boob-grabbing when standing. It’s almost a universal motion.

    2. Athedia

      My first thought there was,
      “Aww Dina is being a T-Rex”

  8. Doctor_Who

    The grabby motion she’s making in the last panel really sells it.

    1. Kernanator

      It also looks like she’s saying “RAWR, I’M A DINOSAUR!

      1. Doctor_Who

        In her mind, Dina is always saying that.

        1. Yotomoe

          Sometimes it’s appropriate.

        2. Wonder Wig

          Dina is like Ninja Rick… only with dinosaurs.

        3. Plasma Mongoose

          I just hope that Dina ‘sword’ doesn’t draw Amber’s blood.

        4. Wixvhen

          Giggity?

      2. coobee

        Fixed!

        I should note that I was able to construct that statement completely from the original speech bubble. She’s saying it even when she’s not!

        1. Kernanator

          That’s amazing.

  9. Sensedog

    *Insert random Sir Mix-a-Lot reference here*

    1. Wack'd

      You other brothers can’t interfere
      Because when a user walks in
      With a dated popcultural reference
      And a meta joke in your face
      You get SARCASTIC

      …I suck at this.

  10. RaijinK

    It’s Dina’s groping gesture when talking about Amber’s butt that sells it.

  11. Yotomoe

    If it is about your large mammary glands, do not fret. I’ve heart that those too, are physical aphrodesiacs.

    1. Aizat

      Well, she is a superheroine. She kinda had the most common superpower.

      1. Doctor_Who

        And yet, no chest window. That’s a waste of perfectly good boob!

        1. Aizat

          Well, not everyone has a hole to fill.

        2. Random Guy

          Giggity

      2. Plasma Mongoose

        That’s why she needs some chest windows, so her powers can be fully awakened.

    2. Pyr05

      The combination of the two should be reasonably sufficient to attract men who enjoy large posteriors or mammory glands, perhaps both. Fear not Amber, those child-rearing hips will be put to use yet.

      1. Yotomoe

        Scientifically, you are already a walking arousal machine, and any lack of confidence in the subject is misplaced. Your genes are quite excellent and your body followed suit by having forming healthy male attracting features so that you will be even more adept to attract an acceptable mate worthy of your genes. Doesn’t that make you feel better?

        1. Pyr05

          Why isn’t that making you feel better? WHY? -shakes and starts to cry-

    3. Aizat

      *Insert Aphrodite A joke here*

  12. Rayrayrave

    Goodness gracious, by the time this comic ends, I’ll have shipped every character together.

    1. Yotomoe

      College IS all about orgies.

      1. Aizat

        Not my college.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Actually it is, it’s just that they haven’t told you about them.

        2. Aizat

          If there is though, I don’t think I’m invited.

      2. Spazman

        In the (paraphrased) words of Jeph Jacques:

        “On my computer I have a text file called ‘The Ending.’ It simply reads ‘Everybody fucks.'”

        1. Narf

          Actually I think that was Yelling Bird, and it went something more like…

          “…AND I FOUND HIS SECRET QUESTIONABLE CONTENT PLOT LINE FILE. IT’S LITERALLY JUST FIVE WORDS WITH A FOOTNOTE: ‘EVERYONE FUCKS, THEN I RETIRE*’

          *HANNELORE REALDOLL”

          😀 (I may read a little too much QC)

    2. Effie

      A dumbiverse armada, and you are the grand admiral… or whatever a high rank is for an armada….

      1. Bill M.

        Fleet Admiral, though only used during wartimes. In peacetime, Admiral is the highest ranking. Below that, there’s the Vice Admiral, then Rear Admiral (top half), then Rear Admiral (bottom half) before we then get to the Captain (who’s just playing piano, since Tenille is nowhere to be found).

    3. fatemaster1

      So you ship a massive orgy then?

  13. Aizat

    Damnit Dina. That’s not what I like about Amber…..and I just said it out loud, didn’t I?

  14. Sporky

    These are the things Dina has noticed in the space of two consecutive comics:

    1) Amber looking at a guy
    2) Amber’s butt

    girl on girl ship tease everywhere in this damn thing

    1. diremoi

      Is…. is that baby Perry the Platypus.

      1. Aizat

        Why, yes it is.

      2. Sporky

        Everything’s better with Perry.

        1. Yotomoe

          SO MUCH BETTER

        2. Sporky

          brushin’ our teeth – IT’S BETTER

          washin’ our hair – IT’S BETTER

          breathin’ in air – SO MUCH BETTER

  15. captainswift

    I am predisposed to large posteriors, and I cannot lie
    You additional male siblings can’t deny
    That when a person of the female persuasion gains admittance with her smaller than average midsection and a spherical thing in your face…

    Ah, I’m done.

    1. Yotomoe

      …You get launched from a coiled like potential energy source, Which causes you to want to pull out simply because you’ve noticed the butt is reaching the maximum cappasity for the jean pants she is wearing, which in turn causes me to be addicted and lose my ability to break constant eye contact….

      (let’s keep this going please <:D)

      1. Yotomoe

        I would enjoy being within your company and perhaps taking a photograph although my aquaintences felt the need to give a warning to me but the posterior you have gets me thouroughly aroused. Salutations, Rump-o-Smooth-Skin, Would you like to take a drive with me in my car manufactured by Benz? I will allow you to use me simply because you are unlike the average women that attach themselves to wealthy celebreties such as myself due to status. I have watched you dance and decided that I have no desire to woo you romantically because of your persperation and the moisture that has gathered because of said persperation has me excited and heated up in a way I can only liken to that of a Corvette in the extremest form of it.

        1. Yotomoe

          I have grown weary of publications that display images and news that imply that petite bottoms are currently superior to ones of a larger size. If you take the average african-american and ask him a question based on these implications he will reply that she must “pack much back” if you will (meaning that her posterior has to be quite endowed.) So gentlemen, Gentlemen, I ask if your signifigant other has such a buttocks as previousely described. If so then have her gyrate, rotate, vibrate, and other wise convulse her lower body focusing on but not limited to her aforementioned buttocks which are in peak physical condition.

  16. Effie

    Will Dina meet Amazi-girl, discover her secret identity, and become her sidekick, Dino-lass?

    I certainly hope so.

    1. Aizat

      I just imagined Dina riding a velociraptor.

      1. Effie

        Yes, good.

        1. Aizat

          And her nickname shall be the Dino Knight.

      2. Plasma Mongoose

        Define ‘riding’ *nudge nudge wink wink* 😀

        1. Jetstream

          You DO know that Dina would point out the anatomical problems with your entendre there, right? 😉

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          Details schmetails.

    2. Scoops!

      Come on. Of course Dina already knows who Amazi-girl is. Examine the facts:
      1) People often fail to notice when Dina is in the room. Amazi-girl may have already changed in or out of costume while Dina was watching.
      2) I don’t think Dina has been present for any conversation about Amazi-girl, which would be the only way she’d bring up what she knows.
      3) Amazi-girl’s mask covers her eyes, not her mouth.

      1. GenericScreenName101

        Well, my hypothesis is that Amber is hip to Dina’s amazing alter-ego and is just playing along for her sake. Because that’s what roomies do.

      2. Scoops!

        Further study:

        Dina says “There’s a fight or something going on outside. Everyone is coming out to watch.” But then she is never visible in the crowd of people watching.

        Here she has to be told to be surprised that Amber didn’t come home last night.

        1. GenericScreenName101

          So Dina has an ability to know when something nefarious is happening near her and is out all night to not notice when her roomie was also gone all night she comes back in the morning?

        2. begbert2

          Dina was the one who shouted “Most boring fight ever!” one comic later.

  17. Doomdarts

    Dina needs her own dating advice column in the newspaper.

  18. AliaPie

    DINA YOU ARE ADORABLE

    1. Tylertlat

      ^ This exactly

  19. Shobo

    Large posteriors please me, and I find myself unable to create fabrications. The male population does not counter that when a female trots in with a minute torso and a spheroid object in your visage your genitals become turgid.

    1. Sporky

      You sold me with “turgid”

  20. Ryan Balis

    “large posterior” is my new catch-up phrase!

  21. Aizat

    You know, a friend of mine tried that and well……..

  22. Pyr05

    This comic reminds me of a coworker of mine who was talking to someone about a girl he liked/wanted to have ze secks with, and for some reason, the conversation swung to her butt, and taking his glasses and putting them on said buttocks. We all stopped at the same time to look at him and question what the hell he just said.

    1. Yotomoe

      Do you see the butt? It sees you.

    2. Kernanator

      I would have loved to be there and hear the conversation in its entirety. It seems like the kind of thing that mere words cannot describe.

      1. Pyr05

        Indeed. My summarization is the most detailed about the events, yet it pales in comparison to actually being there to hear it.

  23. John

    I think this Internet classic needs to be linked hereabouts.

  24. Melizza

    No one finds it sad that she thinks of her alter ego as better than herself? It made me sad 🙁

    1. Raoullefere

      Only natural, though, or else Amber would be Sal. Or Sal-like, in any case. These Dina-Amber strips have made that abundantly clear.

    2. begbert2

      If she didn’t find that dressing up as a superhero made her feel and act more confident, uninhibited, and powerful, why would she bother doing it?

      …oh right vigilanteism is illegal. And since her costume is apparently effective…

  25. MR C

    does dina like big butts, and if so, is she capable of lying?

    1. Gordon Blvd

      are you, sir, suggesting that if a boy walks by Dina with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in her face, she gets SPRUNG!?!?! lol

      1. MR C

        potentially, it depends on whether they’ve got it going on

        1. CapnPanda

          Dina has an anaconda that likes buns?

  26. Caecilius

    I want to be Dina.

  27. GenericScreenName101

    What is Dina reading in panel 5?

  28. JoeMerl

    Is anyone else curious what Dina’s been reading? XD

  29. Raoullefere

    Oh Amber! It’s only a fantasy. Just hang tight; as soon as Danny learns that Joe is Amazi-Girl, he’ll come running to you. Running

    Oh, and possibly whimpering “The Hairier! The Hairier!”

  30. Raine

    I woulda named this comic posterior.

    1. MR C

      sweet band name warning

  31. Jehosaphat

    Some men lika tha honka honka of the badonka donka.

  32. RickZarber

    I’ve noticed I’ve been reading Dina as Hynden Walch in my head lately. Dialog like this makes her seem even more Starfire-esque.

    1. Creativerealms

      Thanks for putting that image in my head, now Dina sounds super annoying to me. I like Dina how dare you give her a voice I despise.

      1. NoLast

        Appropriate gravatar

      2. Roborat

        Just be glad it was not the voice of Serena in the Sailor Moon english dub.

      3. RickZarber

        …I am not able to comprehend your words because they make no sense to me. I just can’t grasp that concept.

        The closest I can get is, “I’ve also got a really annoying voice that Finn thinks is attractive!”

    2. Sir Robin

      No, Dina sounds like Fluttershy

      1. Spazman

        …..cannot unhear this.

        ….ever.

        thank you.

  33. Just for kix

    I think this cracks the theory of why Danny likes Amazi-girl rather than Amber. Everytime he sees Amazi-girl, he sees her running away from him and hence displaying that large posterior. Whereas with Amber, he has been seeing only the nintendo that she carries. It all makes sense now!

  34. Rayrayravona

    I forget. What day is it in the dumboverse?

    1. Bill M.

      We’ve had a few church services, one attended by Dorothy, and another attended by Ethan, so we’re a few weeks in, unless there have been several more time skips I’m unaware of.

      1. Bill M.

        Crap, we need an edit button. I must also posit that since we haven’t seen Roz comment on whether her sister’s been re-elected, it’s most likely still not past November, so a safe bet would be mid-to-late September, with October possible, but no one’s mentioned the trees changing color starting or what someone’s going to go as for Halloween, so if it is truly in October, it’s most likely just started.

  35. turkishproverb

    That last panel needs to be a poster.

    1. The Carlos

      I wholeheartedly agree.

  36. Jesse

    I am predisposed towards large posteriors, and I am unable to falsify my claim.

  37. Jimmy

    I love Dina’s “grabby hands” in the last panel. Made me laugh out loud. Also, me thinks she’s a little too honest. 😉

  38. coobee

    Ah, Danny’s little happy face. He has no idea the shit he’s stirring up. (Though to be fair, neither does Amber. This is going to end so well.)

  39. davidbreslin101

    In Panel 6, Dina continues: “And I can believe that, because many hadrosaurs and large therapods had haunches of truly magnificent size. “

  40. bunivasal

    “I have read that some men are predisposed towards big butts. Men, though, not women, so I’m definitely not into it. I never watch you sleep and dream of caressing those elaborate curves.”

  41. Tom Speelman

    As usual, Dana is right about EVERYTHING.

  42. Maycroft

    Love dina’s hands in squishy motion.

  43. Bugberry

    I appreciate large posteriors and I can’t speak false, you other males can not contradict me.

  44. Mo

    A lot of simps won’t like this comic. Them punks want to hit it and quit it, but I’d rather stay and play.

  45. John Madden

    I laughed.

  46. Squidiggles

    My God . . . HALF of these comments are just different ways to reference ‘Baby Got Back’ and they are all great.

    1. Spazman

      My God…..it’s full of butts!

      1. imperator

        ….. And I’m not complaining.

  47. JA

    Curvy butt > flat butt

    (Kim Kardashian doesn’t count)

  50. newllend

    Wow, dinas just killing it

  51. fatemaster1

    Personally I don’t really care about looks that much, as long as the basic female parts are there and she’s got brains and a decent personality, I’m good.
