Well, depending on where she goes, no shoes, no shirt, no
service, but they say nothing about pants.

A convenient fact my roommate and I would exploit. We’d swim over to a nearby pub just down the beach in our swimsuits, flip flops, and a T-shirt, then drip our way inside and order. Never got kicked out for it. XD
–Mind you, being female and in both our early twenties *and* bikinis may have helped, heh heh heh…
Shade
Pretty sure that rule only applies to guys in most cases.
Raen
A man could probably get away with showing up to a seaside bar in only a t-shirt, swimsuit, and flip-flops, just as long as he didn’t have the same taste in swimwear as The Todd.
Shade
It would probably depend on the level of your relationship, maybe save it for a significant other.
Act now and get a free baseball with your purchase!
Ever seen someone that you’d love to introduce to your wooden accessory, but are just out of range? Merely use the baseball, and you’ll find that no distance is too far!

So does this mean Joyce now has a life debt to Sarah and must now travel with her across the galaxy to help her? Or maybe I’m thinking of something else.
No, no. She’ll just have to save Sarah and a bunch of friends from certain death in an incinerator using a giant construction claw. Which she worships. Er… wait.
… And back into the underpants the bat shall go, until the time comes that it is needed once again, when it is called into battle and it shall answer that call with great swiftness and mercilessness. For glory! The glory of baseball bats and underpants!
Never allow Joyce’s thin mask of small-town homeschooled ultrareligious naivety lull you into a false sense of her actually being -dumb- or emotionally retarded … She’s merely a little disadvantaged in the worldly-experience field 🙂
Hm… It’s interesting. The way she describes Sarah’s displays of affection/caring thus far, “… I wish you would show me you like me in small ways, too, not just only in some rare grand gesture,” fits pretty well as a description of how the Judeo-Christian God seems to work, no? Only appearing in rare, grand gestures.
Andiemus
And mostly in over-the-top violence against enemies! Holy shit!
Hannover Fist
Don’t forget the cruelty he directs at his own followers. The Judeo-Christian god always seemed like an unreasonable asshole to me.
Gargamel
So in your view Sarah: Yahweh?
That actually makes a disturbing amount of sense…
*shudder*
But Joyce…She’s not a social person. Yet she offered to take you shopping. Although it’s not to your face she has jumped through hoops to make sure you’re safe and happy and to be told that you think she hates you…is perhaps the most insulting thing you could say to someone who has spent the 2 weeks she’s known you looking out for you.
I had to go check that out, at first I thought you were talking about Tara Strong. She did a reading of Star Wars doing Darth Vader using Bubbles voice. It was the highlight of my time at Calgary Comic-con this year.
Andiemus
Pleasepleaseplease tell me you have a recording of that to share with the class.
Roborat
There is probably a recording up somewhere, we were so busy enjoying the show (her and Billy West were really riffing on each other) that we forgot to record it.
Shade
Couldn’t have been talking about Tara Strong she voiced Raven.
Andiemus
Voice actors pull double duty all the time.
Shade
Yes as referenced by the fact both Tara Strong and Hynden Walch voiced several characters in the show. But they delibrately didn’t repeat voice actors for the main five characters.

Pants? Why? =3
Aizat
Why not?
Cholma
She’s going shopping; she can BUY pants once she gets there!
Ancestral Hamster
Besides, she needs no garment other than her beauty!
I’m guessing I’ll get slapped (or worse) if I ever try that line on a woman…
Wonder Wig
For some reason that sounds like something Walky would say in another universe…

This will obviously end well
Gundi
Baseball bats, for all your accessorizing needs.
Yotomoe
Goes great with your hat
your shorts
your drunken friends face.

But wait! There’s more!

Also good for beating up the forces of a disembodied evil alien attacking from ten years in the future.
Man EarthBound sounds convoluted when you say it like that.
Wonder Wig
Sarah, you have saved our lives. We are eternally grateful.

Ancestral Hamster
Yes to both. And then be left hanging without a proper conclusion.
Regalli
No, no. She’ll just have to save Sarah and a bunch of friends from certain death in an incinerator using a giant construction claw. Which she worships. Er… wait.
George
THE BAAAAAT!
Aizat
The Bat decides who leaves and who stays.
Doctor_Who
Bat no. Pants…also no. Who needs ’em?
Yotomoe
anybody in 32 degree fehrinheit or below weather?
Aizat
People who are not crazy?
Doctor_Who
Neither of those two qualifications apply to the characters in this comic. Therefore, pants are not necessary.
Plasma Mongoose
Who needs pants when you have shorts.
Aizat
Billie’s remark about how if she’s not using her credit card soon, she’ll go crazy reminded me of a story in my local comic.

GIRL BONDING TIME
dusk
Bondage? Where? Is Sarah finally showing her true colors?
Plasma Mongoose
No bonding can occur without superglue.
Aydr
I know how you feel, Sarah. Girls never appreciate it enough when I follow them to parties with bats either.
Yotomoe
clearly they are not prepared for pinatas like you
Aizat
The pinatas may look cute and innocent but when your back is turned, they will DESTROY US ALL!
Wack'd
Nah, they merely want to avenge their fallen comrades by doing to them as they did to pinatas before–beat the unholy shit out of them with bats.
Luke
… And back into the underpants the bat shall go, until the time comes that it is needed once again, when it is called into battle and it shall answer that call with great swiftness and mercilessness. For glory! The glory of baseball bats and underpants!

She brings a weapon when she goes shopping.. Best character confirmed.
Yotomoe
for brawl?
Mister Mercy
Dead Rising Obviously
Gargamel
Oo another spin off!:)
Resne
That…is actually a good point.
Shadlyn Wolfe
Yeah, I was really proud of Joyce there. It was a very “D’awww” comic on both sides today.
alicemacher
Wow. I’ve never been more impressed with Joyce than I am now. Great writing in this one.

Raticate5
I’m pretty sure Joyce is completely oblivious to that. I bet she assumes that it’s impossible for Sarah’s feelings to be hurt.
badmartialarts
After reading “I am eternally grateful” I now hear Joyce’s voice in Starfire’s voice. Which is good because it’s also Princess Bubblegum’s voice.
Jacob
Also Princess Nia from Gurren Lagann.
Bio D
That’s it, I’m watching the dub now.

And I’m watching Adventure Time now.

I always read her lines in Pinkie Pie’s voice.
shadowMobster
This seems to be a complicated relationship.

Pants ha please you’ve got a bat who would honestly risk bringing up your lack of pants at the cost of their skull
vlademir1
Looking at your grav… that sounds exactly like something a troll would say.

Nore like something Dave would say ironicly
