At the risk of second guessing Willis too much, I’d say it’s something that is Not Skin, but IS of human bodily origin. And whilst not a tadpole, may well be full of many millions of things that superficially resemble them.
Especially if it’s a coed bathroom, but even if it isn’t.
And really, it’s better that it’s in the corner, because the mess you get when hair becomes matted with… other stuff… is just grossness squared, and it does NOT wash away.
Could simply be no one told her the importance of having special flip-flops for college showers. Also, she’s shown she’s really attached to being so sheltered. Some crud about preserving a sense of purity, or something.
I’m actually pretty sure it’s just her personality. People can be squeamish or spermaphobic. It has nothing to do with how sheltered she is. Not everything about her has to be about her home life. In fact, as Dr. Z pointed out, being sheltered can sometimes mean not being squeamish at all, because the person never thought that they had any reason to be!

I wouldn’t call my childhood “sheltered,” exactly, but I have definitely experienced this. I can remember many times when I was a kid where I did something that everyone around me thought was nasty, and my reaction was something like “What? What’d I do?”
We’ll have to catch them while they’re still skin tadpoles and train them to serve us. I know I’m going to! I’ll have the strongest skin tadpole and eventually the strongest skin frog.
and then I will be a Pokemon Master.
Okay look Sarah, these shower stalls are clearly extremely scary and dangerous and Joyce is still really in a fragile state of mind. Clearly what needs to happen is for you to shower with her so she feels safe. This is said entirely out of concern for Joyce and not in any way a desire for fan service and/or roomie shipping.
Why yes – having a recent near-rape victim who is a professed non-lesbian be placed in a highly sexualized lesbian sort of situation with the woman who shares the room she sleeps in – that would be excellent therapy!
Sarah named her sandals “Sandless” because she never goes to the beach in them. She has another pair named Sandfuls. She DOES go to the beach in those.
Hey, I’m on Joyce’s side here. This sort of crap is the reason I never wanted a dorm with a communal bathroom again. One should NOT have to wear sandals just to take a shower…
It should be also noted that I go to an art college, so sometimes the shower floors, in addition to collecting hair and other lovely bodily items, sometimes contained rather…interesting materials.
I’m still wondering who thought a ton of small rocks would go down the shower drain easily.

Aw man. Please tell me she’s not THAT sheltered.
Ziaheart
Apparently, I am. What is it? Do I want to know?
Axel Bordelon
Honestly, I am too. Anyone care to explain?

Public showers in colleges have a tendancy to be rather gross. To prevent athletes foot, you should always wear flip-flops in them.
Ziaheart
I didn’t realize athlete’s foot fungus were visible to the naked eye, nor that it looked like tiny globules of flesh.
I did always wear sandals to go shower, though. Mostly because they were the easiest to have on when going back to my room.
Digidestined of Trust (Tim)
ohhh athletes foot fungus is quite visible. Take it from a guy who’s had it since he was 8 years old

I know sheltered people who are not babies.
They’d just remove the hair (because it slows the drain) AND FREAKIN’ TAKE A SHOWER.

One day those same skin tadpoles will grow up to skin frogs and they will slowly take over the world.

Yotomoe
That’s why Sarah’s giving Joyce her Sandiles.
BlueHoundoom
I just… You win everything.
Jen Aside
Joyce is the one who sees the custodian cleaning out the showers early in the morning and waits patiently for that first clean stall.
Casey
…And then leaves it cleaner than the custodian did.
Chronos
Wow, Adrian Monk’s got a lot younger. And female.
Dr.Z
This could have good marketability…
Dibullba
With your mom for a nickle
Dr.Z
You’re mother only charged a penny last night. 😉
Xydux
My mom only charges a dime. And she knows the correct usage of “Your” and “You’re”.
Dr.Z
You win an internet. Here is your prize.
Bickendan
Sarah’s AV makes the comment perfect.
David Herbert
No, in Sarah’s arms while Whitney Houston’s I will Always Love You plays.
Aizat
Joyce, it’s just hair. Hair cannot kill- OH MY GOD! THE HAIR IS ATTACKING ME!
Effie
Don’t worry, it’s just Cousin Itt trying to hug you.
Wonder Wig
Joyce, quit stalling.
Plasma Mongoose
Joyce is hoping that Sarah will shower her with love.
Yotomoe
Instead she has fear wash over her.
Aizat
Well, she to rinse from her fears.
Wonder Wig
And it’d be best sooner than lather.
Jackson
Water the consequences if she doesn’t?
Yotomoe
She’ll have to fight Sarah in a Suds-ent Death match.
Bickendan
I dunno. This entire thing might end up being a wash.
Wonder Wig
Don’t you mean down the drain?
Jackson
C’mon, Bickendan. Don’t be such a wet blanket.
jimbo
yeah, stop trying to rain on our parade
Jen
I love you all
Wonder Wig
I dove you too.
DudeMyDadOwnsADealership
Sarah = Nicole Watterson
Joyce = Gumball Watterson
That’s my take.
Plasma Mongoose
At least they’re not the other kind of ‘tadpoles’ Joyce.
Aizat
Just be glad it wasn’t the Invaders or the Thing.
Wonder Wig
Looks like Clayface was taking a shower.
Aizat
You have my sandals.
Plasma Mongoose
This why I wear thongs in the shower and bleach the shower floor every so often.
Crunchy Lumpia
And my Axe body spray.
Yotomoe
And my Hair Bow
Wonder Wig
And my glock.
Queen Anthai
AND MY AXE!
Ryorin
AND MY KNOWLEDGE OF CLASSICAL JAPANESE!
It must have SOME practical use.
Aizat
Sure it does. I just don’t know what.
fatemaster1
It’s part of the preparation to move to Japan of course!

Ancestral Hamster
Agreed. Also, they should do their part to conserve water.
James Rye
Yesssss~
Shower with her~
Do it, do it, DO IT!!!
<3 <3 <3
Xydux
Hush! He said that this wasn’t an attempt at shipping! Don’t act like it is, creepo!

Exactly!
Tylertlat
How can Sarah say no to that face?
Yotomoe
Step 4: pick you up and toss you in there.
Aizat
Step 5: Cut a hole in a box.
nothri
Step six: Profit!

“Sandals” is not spelled “sandles.”

Sarah named her sandals “Sandless” because she never goes to the beach in them. She has another pair named Sandfuls. She DOES go to the beach in those.

Assuming that ‘thought’ thing went on’s where you’re making your error…
BrotherFlounder
Agreed. Communal showers are *disgusting*. Though you’d think Sarah might have suggested sandals sooner…
Angel
Why doesn’t Joyce have her own sandals?
