Indeed.
I am still wondering how Joyce ONLY got it on her hand, though. Typically, it doesn’t stay put that well.
Also, how she was able to get dressed again with only one hand. And yes, while it is possible fully clothed, it isn’t very fun that way.
since this was impromptu and joyce is still working through some stuff, i wouldn’t be surprised if they were both still mostly clothed, joe with his pants down a little bit and maybe joyce’s vest a little less done for better boob access. mostly i’m just surprised she managed to finish him on her first try! proud of her 🙂
Makes me wonder if there’s one detergent that advertises “removes THOSE kinda stains” that caters to moms buying cleaning products for bedsheets of them having teenage boys in puberty XD;
i’m sure it’s fine as long as you don’t like get reported but i don’t think willis cares as long as you follow the rules/ are respectful b/c i’m sure ppl have said dirty jokes on here before lol
Will be carving a pumpkin. Looking forward to trick-or-treaters– the school district I’m in has the day off on Halloween AND November 1st this year, so I hope that means plenty of kids going around the neighborhood. We have candy, toys, and potatoes to offer.
Happy Halloween! I have a lot of work to do during the day – I figure Halloween is good day to face my fears and start doing some of the tasks I have been procrastinating for far far too long.
I am excited for the night though – I am running the door for my parents this year. I got this plastic skeleton by the door which I dressed up in in a plaid button down shirt and blue jeans. When the kids ask for candy I will unfortunately have to tell them that my friend ate it all before all that candy killed him, but they can still fish the candy out of his guts!!! (I will then open the bottom part of the shirt to show where I have filled the pants with candy and red twirlers for the intestines).
Plan is for a pretty chill Halloween. Been meaning to watch Over the Garden Wall, might have to hand out some candy but the trick-or-treating is pretty sleepy out here.
I’m gonna put this on Joe. He’s the one with experience. Very irresponsible to not clean up after himself and let his girl walk away with a handful of Rosenthal. Even if he was still in the afterglow. Do better Joe.
Maybe he thought she was running off to wash her hand somewhere else. Maybe he was distracted by cleaning up the macaroni and cheese that got EVERYWHERE. Maybe the penis just happened to appear on Joyce’s way back and Joe had nothing to do with it.
Given how neurotic she is about other things , if she did run out, even if there’s a sink in the shared kitchen i would’ve thought that he would assume she ran off to also clean herself rather than ‘bragging’ to sarah
You shouldn’t buy vibrating toothbrushes. Bees are on the decline, and if we keep using them to fill our toothbrushes just for the buzzy sensation it’s going to be our fault when they go extinct.
Sometimes their predators got really hungry, sometimes they got really unlucky, and sometimes they were just… just so fucking stupid. Complete imbeciles.
Totally saving the “so I should wash this?” panel for future use as a reaction image. “A reaction to what?” you ask. I dunno yet, but I’m sure I’ll think of something.
TMI confession time: I’ve accidentally grabbed a video game controller after touching a penis sans washing hands because I wanted to pause the game to stop the music.
I’m normally more Sarah-like in keeping penis activities separate from other stuff
A penis is not inherently dirty. You can touch it without needing to wash your hands, unless we suddenly have to do that after touching literally any body part. And that would just be stupid. We’d be washing all day and never have time for anything else.
Joyce’s hand didn’t get that close to Sarah, to freak Sarah out. Sarah saw something on Joyce’s hand to freak her out. Specifically, Sarah saw a small quantity of Joe on Joyce’s hand. Thus the Sarah freak-out for the ages.
oh i see, i haven’t rly kept up with too many horror movie, tho i do like horror manga bc the visuals odn’t necessarily jump scare you (tho i think there have been some that have had their pages turned to gifs lol)
But that would be hilarious if some negative aspects of a cast member’s life kept passing between the group
Joyce’s hair is mussed up. I conclude they’d been going at…it…for some time. And knowing Joyce, she deliberately manipulated (seewhatididthere) Joe into orgasm.
Now, does that mean we can conclude that every previous time people had sex and weren’t tagged on their partners’ skin, those people actually washed after the sex? That would be very comforting to know.
well, hopefully there’s a student store or so like how hotels have extra amenities or so versus going all the way to a groceyr store (unelss their convneience store nearby has some, like the one liz and joe went to that one time although i think at the one i’ve been to i’ve seen mouthwash but surprisingly no toothbrush)
I was gonna ask, why isn’t Joyce STILL touching it, but maybe the answer is in the question
Because she had to go brag about it as soon as possible?
I’m pretty sure the answer is “because Joe came and Joyce immediately went to ask Sarah what to do next.”
Clearly Dorothy needs to be more precise in her instructions.
Poor Joe; no post-orgasm cuddles. His girlfriend ditched him immediately just to get some habitual social validation.
In my headcannon, she got to her room so fast that Joe hasn’t had a chance to zip up yet.
Exotic Butters Intensifies….
I am SO proud of Willis right now!
Whoa—insane! Willis, the machine
well i guess that answers whether the job was good or not, huh!
Indeed.
I am still wondering how Joyce ONLY got it on her hand, though. Typically, it doesn’t stay put that well.
Also, how she was able to get dressed again with only one hand. And yes, while it is possible fully clothed, it isn’t very fun that way.
Possibly she never undressed. Public space, after all.
(joe, on the other hand…)
((or should i say ‘joe, with the other hand…))
since this was impromptu and joyce is still working through some stuff, i wouldn’t be surprised if they were both still mostly clothed, joe with his pants down a little bit and maybe joyce’s vest a little less done for better boob access. mostly i’m just surprised she managed to finish him on her first try! proud of her 🙂
Joe could be a dribbler?
Well we finally found something that can break Sarah out of the forced cheerfulness she’s been putting on
She tried so hard!!!
Joe was just harder.
?+1
Probably not anymore. Joyce made sure of that
Sarah’s cheerfulness was no match for the sight of Joe’s cheer-juice.
And I am now going to go wash my mouth out with soap, since I can’t do so to my brain.
I do not, however, regret inflicting this on anyone.
I have to hand it to you — that puts an interesting twist onto “head cheerleader” …
Oh, I’m sure Jennifer could tell you all about that.
Or at least Billie could have, if her mouth wasn’t full.
In fairness, she lasted until bedtime even though she was exposed to several different things that would have made her snap before.
Sarah’s face is the funniest thing I’ve seen sdglsjkdg
I’ve seen a lot of humor disparaged as “just weird faces” but the right weird face is one of the funniest things in the world.
At that moment….Sarah saw the true terror hahaha
Full-on King Crimson.
That’s it!
Well maybe The King Biscuit Flower Hour. And if you recognized that, you are officially An Old.
Requiem for a Sarah.
She’s gonna re-live this over and over, methinks
Needs to be a new random avatar lol
joyce walks in with a cup of joe in hand
Eww… Great pun, but ewwwww
thanks, I hate it
nice
Ok, I laughed, but I hate you.
*polite claps*
Take your points and get out lmfao
Forever unclean!…Until you wash with soap. I like Dial.
I prefer Palmolive Anti-Bacterial Dish Detergent. I use it on everything below my chin.
Makes me wonder if there’s one detergent that advertises “removes THOSE kinda stains” that caters to moms buying cleaning products for bedsheets of them having teenage boys in puberty XD;
You can prevent those stains almost entirely by just providing a steady stream of bog roll and not asking questions
I… cannot write the comment I want to make without getting banned, I’m sure. XD
i’m sure it’s fine as long as you don’t like get reported but i don’t think willis cares as long as you follow the rules/ are respectful b/c i’m sure ppl have said dirty jokes on here before lol
Do it, coward.
Joyce’s face yesterday.
Sarah’s horror face in third panel today.
Welcome back Real Sarah
true
she held out surprisingly well, considering
she’s probably not gonna smile again for another month or at least death glare at joe next itme lol
Hahaha, that terrified expression on Sarah’s face in the third panel.
Yup, time to buy a new toothbrush.
Not beating the “Touched Joe for half a second before immediately running to tell Sarah,” allegations there, Joyce.
There’s an “I’m so fucked up,” joke to be made but I don’t want to bother right now.
Joe is just standing there in the kitchen with his wang out waiting for Joyce to come back.
I saw the tag was now changed and oh wow she definitely did. In my defense I was very half-awake when I first read the comic.
I just noticed the tags too. First thought: But Joe’s not there. Second thought: Oh, wait…
😀
She can’t beat the allegations because she was busy beating off something else
Or is this more that she managed to beat two things at once, singlehandedly?
Happy Halloween everyone!!!
Got any plans? Even if that is just chillin out! ^^ <#
Will be carving a pumpkin. Looking forward to trick-or-treaters– the school district I’m in has the day off on Halloween AND November 1st this year, so I hope that means plenty of kids going around the neighborhood. We have candy, toys, and potatoes to offer.
Happy Halloween! I have a lot of work to do during the day – I figure Halloween is good day to face my fears and start doing some of the tasks I have been procrastinating for far far too long.

What are your plans?
Plan is for a pretty chill Halloween. Been meaning to watch Over the Garden Wall, might have to hand out some candy but the trick-or-treating is pretty sleepy out here.
I’m gonna chill, maybe order a pizza, and re-watch Trick R Treat, my favorite lil Halloween movie.
Watching movies at night, handing out candy, DRAGON AGE.
Listening for Trick-or-Treat-ers that never come, while watching It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! and Nightmare before Christmas.
Wearing my costume to work Happy Halloween everyone!!
Raking leaves and hiding from trick-or-treaters by leaving the porch light off.
Oh. Is that why I don’t get trick-or-treaters?
Oh my giddy aunt, Sarah’s expression in panel 3 is killing me. It’s 1 am right now and I need to sleep, but I’m laughing too hard.
Kimochi Warui
sdljgk this was for Amos downstairs, sorry
BUT STILL
Alt-text: Yes, it’s the End of Evangelion for Joyce.

I know
I know I’ve let you down
I’ve been a fool to myself
I understood this reference dot gif.
All the the repressed bitterness aged Sarah 40 years in a second.
AND she’s back, thank Rao.
Kara, Kal, and I understand that reference!
I’m gonna put this on Joe. He’s the one with experience. Very irresponsible to not clean up after himself and let his girl walk away with a handful of Rosenthal. Even if he was still in the afterglow. Do better Joe.
Unless they were interrupted and there wasn’t time?
I wonder if there was any discussion after the touching or if Joyce immediately bolted
Yes, I think that was exactly what happened.
Maybe he thought she was running off to wash her hand somewhere else. Maybe he was distracted by cleaning up the macaroni and cheese that got EVERYWHERE. Maybe the penis just happened to appear on Joyce’s way back and Joe had nothing to do with it.
The dingdong bandit has really escalated things.
+1
She’s so fucked up.
Sarah really said “kimochi warui”
It’s a kitchen. There’s a sink right there.
Yeah, doesn’t mean she might not want to wash somewhere else, theoretically– different soap or such.
How do we know there is any anything on her hand? Maybe it’s just a hand.
Joe is tagged in the strip, my friend. That’s how we know.
?
We do not see the Joe. But Sarah in panel 3…she sees the Joe. 😀
Did she walk away with a handful of Joe or did she just touch it and run away? All sh3 said she did was touch it.
Given how neurotic she is about other things , if she did run out, even if there’s a sink in the shared kitchen i would’ve thought that he would assume she ran off to also clean herself rather than ‘bragging’ to sarah
Maybe immediately after he finished, she teleported to Sarah because she was so excited she had to tell someone ASAP.
YOUNG LADY!!
Sarah is probably VERY glad that she wasn’t pretending to be cheerful enough to go for a high-five.
A reminder that vibrating toothbrushes are readily available almost anywhere, at an affordable price.
Back before civilization we had to vibrate the toothbrushes ourselves.
And nickels had little pictures of bumblebees on ’em! “Gimme five bees for a quarter”, you’d say…
In the snow. Up hill. Both ways. And we liked it!
(well okay i didn’t like it…i’ll admit it.)
Why?
You shouldn’t buy vibrating toothbrushes. Bees are on the decline, and if we keep using them to fill our toothbrushes just for the buzzy sensation it’s going to be our fault when they go extinct.
I mean, it’s pretty much always our fault when things go extinct. At least since the last big event.
How did species manage to get themselves extinguished before humans came long?
Sometimes their predators got really hungry, sometimes they got really unlucky, and sometimes they were just… just so fucking stupid. Complete imbeciles.
“Wait, whose was it?”
“Joe’s!”
“Nevermind soap, use fire.”
wow, I’m really a fan of Sarah’s face in panel 3, we’ve never seen that before
Totally saving the “so I should wash this?” panel for future use as a reaction image. “A reaction to what?” you ask. I dunno yet, but I’m sure I’ll think of something.
“Don’t touch anything else”? How can I wash my hands?!
Still unsure if she did more than a Jam Handy
By using the other hand, silly.
TMI confession time: I’ve accidentally grabbed a video game controller after touching a penis sans washing hands because I wanted to pause the game to stop the music.
I’m normally more Sarah-like in keeping penis activities separate from other stuff
At least it’s pretty easy to wipe a controller down.
well hopefully it wasn’t a shared controller or anything. or like, a younger sibling’s game XD
So wait is there cum in her hand or is Sarah just reacting to the idea of general dick essence
Presumably wang hand, rather than jizz. Even in her euphoria, Joyce would probably not walk around all sticky-fingered.
Ok show of hands ?
Who thinks its DNA and who thinks its general penisness?
A penis is not inherently dirty. You can touch it without needing to wash your hands, unless we suddenly have to do that after touching literally any body part. And that would just be stupid. We’d be washing all day and never have time for anything else.
the end of Eva joke all but confirms joe did finish
Joe is tagged, so, uh.
lol I didn’t catch that, ok that settles it for me
Joyce’s hand didn’t get that close to Sarah, to freak Sarah out. Sarah saw something on Joyce’s hand to freak her out. Specifically, Sarah saw a small quantity of Joe on Joyce’s hand. Thus the Sarah freak-out for the ages.
There’s the possibility this was over‐clothing contact.
I like the ambiguity of the strip.
Schroedinger’s baby butter.
Joe IS tagged in today’s strip…
All I will say is that if Joe gets disintegrated like Walky in IW, Joyce would be able to get a clone body for him as well.
Aw, man. Can we get that Sarah face without Joyce slightly in the way please?
Quick, someone photoshop it with Joyce even more in the way.
Or you could try using AI to remove Joyce I guess.
Please don’t.
https://dumbingofage.tumblr.com/post/765825437681188864/hi-can-we-get-panel-3-of-dont-touch-10312024 the tumblr has a slightly more zoomed in ver of it at least
Cut the features from panel 3 Sarah and paste them onto panel 1 Sarah. Easy.
That’s probably for the best, Sarah.
Sarah looks more terrified than some people who are about to be killed in horror movies
I mean, i wouldn’t want a roommates hand to stay unsterilized after learning what happened lol
She finally un-did er smile 8D;
she passed on the curse maybe?
tbf her fake? smile was more self inflicted or so but i wouldn’t think joyce getting to 2nd? based with joe woudl be that ‘cursed’ lol
it’s a reference to Smile the horror movie, which got a sequel very recently
oh i see, i haven’t rly kept up with too many horror movie, tho i do like horror manga bc the visuals odn’t necessarily jump scare you (tho i think there have been some that have had their pages turned to gifs lol)
But that would be hilarious if some negative aspects of a cast member’s life kept passing between the group
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just to be clear, was it a handjob or did they just sorta grope each other?
As Sajuuk-Khar points out, Joe is tagged in the strip. Draw your own conclusions.
Joyce’s hair is mussed up. I conclude they’d been going at…it…for some time. And knowing Joyce, she deliberately manipulated (seewhatididthere) Joe into orgasm.
I didn’t quite get what the joke was for about 20 seconds
Then it came to me.
You just throwin’ that out there?
https://www.etymonline.com/word/ejaculate
The curse is lifted! It’s a Halloween miracle!
Joyce is so good for her big sister. 😀
Everyone who doubts that Joyce finished her onboarding session:
Joe is tagged in the strip, now ain’t he? ?
… oh my god. You’re right.
Holy shit sdlkgjs
oh noes
OH GOTH HE IS
Now, does that mean we can conclude that every previous time people had sex and weren’t tagged on their partners’ skin, those people actually washed after the sex? That would be very comforting to know.
wash it with fire!
Well this answers the burning question of whether bodily fluids count as a character appearance.
Blood stains count, so why not?
Ah, there she is! Knew it was only a matter of time until Sarah cracked.
This is the, “Dumbing of Age”, equivalent to, “I’ll be in my bunk”.
You think Sarah’s going to masturbate about this? I have doubts.
….oh founder. Did she just immediately run and left a very confused Joe’in there
Poor guy! She finishes him off and she immediately runs off to tell someone. Like, no post-orgasm cuddles. Just callously used like that. So sad.
The cad! The callous vixen! The cruelest of dames!!
Well at least newSarah hadn’t tried to give her a high five….
Sarah, you’re showing your “eww cooties!” reaction something fierce.
Considering the circumstances, I’d say that’s an apt reaction.
As usual, Joe took Sarah’s smile again.
happy halloween! Sarah is certainly experiencing some horror right now
it’s not like she grabbed the toothbrush or something and cooties can’t be transmitted by proximity
well, hopefully there’s a student store or so like how hotels have extra amenities or so versus going all the way to a groceyr store (unelss their convneience store nearby has some, like the one liz and joe went to that one time although i think at the one i’ve been to i’ve seen mouthwash but surprisingly no toothbrush)
“I’m gonna wash that man right out of my hand” (With apologies to Rodgers and Hammerstein….and maybe Mitzi Gaynor).
I was wondering why Joyce ran to tell Sarah first rather than Dorothy, but that face in panel 3 fully justifies it.
The real question, though, is did they get to eat the mac and cheese?
I can’t believe it’s not butter!
the fact this counts as a joe appearance in tags is hilarious
Tipping my hat to the subtlety of not drawing anything but adding Joe to the tags. On Hallowe’en, because it’s ectoplasm. Joe is dead.
I wasn’t even clear that Joyce’s penis touching had ended beyond the actual touching part to the “finishing” part.
I would have thought she’d have chlorox wipes and radiation for when that happened.
Sarah’s face in panel 3! 😀 😀 😀
I’m impressed Sarah lasted that long. And going to bed is a great decision.
Oh my god, I thought the joke was just “Joyce touched a penis and Sarah is over-reacting” and then I read the comments and she’s Shinji’d
It took the hovertext for me to realize why Sarah’s expression was so visceral
I hate that Joe is tagged in this strip
You’ll note that the Joe tag wasn’t there yesterday, when she hadn’t opened her hand yet.
WAIT, I MIGHT HAVE TO CHANGE MY AVATAR AGAIN, HAHAHAHAHA!
I want to see the old version of this strip
That last panel, and the nature of the strip, made me think of Firefly: “I will be in my bunk”.
