    Only in your dreams, Billie. Only in your dreams…

    1. David Herbert

      Well she’ll eventually run out of new places to sleep.

      1. Michael

        Maybe, or more likely she’ll wake up again somewhere that she doesn’t particularly want to.

        1. Kernanator

          Like in the middle of a bank robbery.

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          or in a maternity ward.

        3. Mkvenner

          Now that’s thought that is going to fester. 🙂

      2. Just for kix

        Its called the pigeonhole principle. You are welcome.

  2. Plasma Mongoose

    Now is the time to come out of the closet when nobody is looking.

    1. Kernanator

      It’s better than coming out at a funeral.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        But is it worse than coming out during a Bris?

        1. Kernanator

          Wait, if nobody is looking, does it count as coming out?

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          You mean like that old question of What if a bear shits in the woods and nobody is there to hear it, did it still make a sound?

        3. Kernanator

          Something like that. Only with less pooping. Probably.

        4. milk experiment

          I dunno, she’s been in that closet a long time.

          What? Oh, come on we were all thinking it!

        5. Plasma Mongoose

          Not a problem if she wears Depends.

        6. Badass Toph

          Not worse than comin out during two of your best friends wedding.

      2. Mkvenner

        Wait, What!?

        1. Kernanator

          Er, not that I have any experience with that.

    2. A. Colunga

      Clearly she should use Faroes Wind to return to the start of the dungeon and escape.

      1. Jackson

        Or she could cast Hinas or use an Escapipe!

        1. Vabolo

          Escape Ropes are a cheap alternative as well.

        2. Jackson

          Dude! Exit mice!

          Any moment now, someone is going to come along with a Billie avatar and post: “NERDS.” And the joke will be complete.

        3. MacGravatar

          escape powder would work better since there are still monsters in the dungeon (as seen in the link)

          http://shrines.rpgclassics.com/ps2/dcloud/Pics/escape.jpg

        4. Energetic Jen

          Escapipe! Yesss!

      2. dchorror

        Obviously, the closet is the start of the dungeon or she would have done so already.

        1. Badass Toph

          Maybe there’s an air vent in the top so she could slip through it.

    3. 1Samildanach

      Being that this is a Willis comic, her coming out is inevitable. Like Mike screwing her mom. The two may even be somehow related…

      1. gangler

        Billy the Oedopal lesbian?

  3. Henry

    I think there’s a small typo there.
    Ruth’s probably lying in wait.

  4. Ridureyu

    IS RUTH STILL THERE?!?!!??!

    Clearly, there is only one solution, Billie: SPOON.

    (And I don’t mean spooning. I mean charging through the halls while yelling the Tick’s catch phrase.)

    1. Inara

      surprising how often that works…

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Have experience using this technique have we?

        1. Kernanator

          You have to admit, it would keep her from wondering why Billie emerged from her closet.

    2. Rognik

      There is no spoon.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Well played Rognik, well played.

  5. Rowen Morland

    Her goal for fresher year.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Her next goal will be regain her lost popularity… after she has a few drinks to figure it out.

      1. Kernanator

        And a few more drinks because she’s thirsty. And a few more drinks because why the hell not? And a sexual encounter because it seemed like a good idea at the time.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          …with Conquest no less. 😀

        2. Kernanator

          A lesbian encounter is the best kind of encounter.

        3. Plasma Mongoose

          But still without an heir for Galasso.

        4. Kernanator

          You’re right! QUICK, CONQUEST, TO THE SPERM-BANK!

        5. Plasma Mongoose

          *THEME MUSIC*

  6. gangler

    Oddly enough this will be the repeat wakeup location

    1. Kernanator

      She likes being in the closet.

  7. Thor

    Now would be an excellent time to pee in Ruth’s closet.

    1. gangler

      You know full well Ruth can track that like a scent hound.

  8. Kernanator

    Hey, it could have been worse, Billy. You could have woken up in a dirty alley with a dead hooker at your feet and a bloody knife in your hand. Not that I’ve had any experience with that.

    1. Ridureyu

      See, I can vizualize that, except it’s immediately followed by “Waah-waah-waaaaaaah!” horns on the soundtrack.

      1. Kernanator

        An important part of any bass line.

  9. Mkvenner

    Well this turning anti-climatic.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      We need Billie out of the closet and in Ruth’s bed, violence and climaxing may follow.

      1. Kernanator

        Yes, that WOULD be quite the climax.

        1. NF

          “Multiple entendre! Ah-hahaha!”

        2. NF

          And dear god! when did my avatar change to Joyce?

        3. CWR

          Have you been outed as a Joyce before you were ready to publicly reveal it?

      2. Mkvenner

        Not exactly what I meant, but okay……

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Just admit it, that is exactly what you were thinking. 😛

  10. Zap

    Clearly her only option is a cardboard box.

    1. Alex

      Nice

    2. Plasma Mongoose

      [ ! ]

    3. Kernanator

      “Billie, do you hear me? Billie? BIIILLLLIEEEEEEE!!!!!!”

      1. ryan

        “billie, what have you done? you’ve changed history. you’ve created a time paradox!”

  11. Kernanator

    “Billie, do you hear me? Billie? BILLLLIEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!”

  12. A. Colunga

    Billie, don’t be a hero! Don’t be a FOOOooOOOoooL!!
    irrelevant, but always wanted to say that.

  13. Ragnal

    “Yesterday was Thursday”. So today is Friday. And tomorrow will be Saturday. And Sunday comes afterwards.

    Those of you that get this…enjoy your earworm. >:D

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      This is DoA don’t expect tomorrow to come anytime this month.

    2. Jackson

      Why would you even do that? Whyyyyy?

    3. Henry

      You. Are. Pure. Evil.

    4. Tylertlat

      Not only is that song now in my head, but the mention of earworms made me think of mind worms, which made me LOSE THE GAME. 🙁

  14. Undrave

    Now is the time to make like Ninja Rick and vanish!

  15. NinjaNick

    Be a ninja, Billie. Go for it.

  16. Badass Toph

    Does that clock say it’s am or pm cus I have a clock like that and one red dot is the alarm on dot the other is the pm dot.

    1. Jackson

      I have a similar model too, but the PM dot and Alarm dot are on the left side. It appears to be 3AM from the exterior lighting, so I can only conclude that this clock’s dots mean something different.

      1. TheBenenator

        Maybe she has it set to be 12 hours fast/slow by mistake?

        1. LaurelRaven

          I’ve had some alarm clocks where the dot meant PM, and others where the dot meant AM. I’m going to take a stab and guess that one of those dots means the alarm is set, and the other means it’s AM.

    2. HiEv

      Actually, my clock is just like that one. The “PM dot” is in the upper left, the “alarm dot” is in the upper right, and the “battery backup is dead/missing dot” is in the lower left.

      1. HiEv

        Whoops, I meant the “battery backup is dead/missing dot” is in the lower right.

        1. CWR

          Really guys? Really?

          Next up: what’s the serial number on your smoke alarm? Is it a prime number? Discuss.

  17. Cholisose

    Quick, Billie! Jump out of the closet, leap off the wall, soar through the open window…
    AND DO A BARREL ROLL!

  18. Shifty

    This line really makes me wonder WHERE ELSE she’s woken up. We’ve had her in a closet and on the floor in-front of her dorm room door. Considering how much a booze hound she is, I’d kinda like to see some of her past blackouts.

    1. Undrave

      Maybe she sleep walks and it turns out she’s now in someone else’s closet!

      Do RA get a room to their own with no roomate?

      1. shoeboxjeddy

        Yeah, RAs don’t have roommates in the vast majority of setups. They have to get up at random times in the night to deal with “incidents” and that would be annoying for a roommate. The power dynamic would also be quite bad between the two roommates if one just lived there and one was “in charge” of the whole floor. And finally, it’s considered a major perk of the job (which makes up for the generally lousy pay) to get paid room and board.

        Of course, there could be any number of residence halls where none of these things are true, but they usually are.

      2. agentksilver

        Generally speaking, yeah. I’ve heard of quite a few people who became RAs just for the no-roommate clause.

    2. Kernanator

      Maybe one someone’s roof. Surrounded by toilet paper.

  19. Björn

    If Billie stays there until morning, isn’t there a high probability that Ruth will go to the closet and open it? I say she should take her chances and sneak out now when Ruth is sleeping.

  20. Undrave

    I can see it now… Billie will sneak out and get to her room exactly at the same time as Sal!

    Then she won’t be able to find Ruth for a week! Ha!

  21. Patrick

    Run, Forrest– er, Billie! Run!

  22. Jon

    Did she not bring a cell phone with her on this daring mission? Seriously, Billie, you should’ve texted someone to pull Ruth aside about ten hours ago. How are you even still sitting there without enormous cramping?

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Why would she? If it wasn’t for that unexpected call Ruth got, Billie would have left the room soon after she got her uniform back.

    2. Badass Toph

      Probably best that she doesnt have a cell with her imagin what would happen if it went off with her in the closet.

    3. Kernanator

      Billie has friends to call? Other than Walky, whom she wouldn’t be caught dead calling?

      1. ALostProphet

        Billie and Walky/ Sitting in a tree…

        1. Kernanator

          F-U-C-K-I-N-G.

        2. CWR

          I’m going to out on a limb here and declare that an unsafe activity.

        3. Jackson

          I tree what you did there.

        4. Kernanator

          C’mon, leaf him alone.

        5. CWR

          I’m told my bark is worse than my bite, but I wood never bite anyone.

  23. Zem

    “Wake up in a place I have before”

    What, like…The floor?
    In a chair with a glass in one hand?
    Someone else’s bed?

    OK, let’s change that plan to “wake up in a place you have NOT before”. (Like yer own bed.)

  24. Tarkada

    at first I was like…then I pooped in a closet at 3 am.
    (and yes this is rediculously late but gravatar said i couldn’t join for a week).

  25. Lis

    In Changeling the Dreaming you can actually have this happen to you (cannot sleep in the same place two nights in a row) if you take certain vows and break them (faeries have to bee realllly careful about promises)
