This is a safe space! We don’t shame anybody for their weird, super-gross sex fantasies that probably have deep psychological implications for why they’re a total failure as a person.
Guys, guys! We can have ALL of those. Amber and Danny are keeping Faz restrained atm and could just be leaving class, and Mike could just happen to show up. It would be glorious.
Oh good. I know this won’t last until the inevitable Full Burnout, but for now, good. Though if this includes Dotty sleeping and maybe eating some more soon, even better.
Possibly. To me it reads more like “because we are on pause we are not responsible for the other’s actions.” Not, “at no point in our relationship were we” etc.
I think they normally feel very responsible for each other’s actions, which is stressful and a trap for them in general. This is different, and a relief.
Bit of an odd question… the new Joyce character design, when viewed on Twitter, has no background, but it does when viewed on the embedded Twitter feed on the DOA website. Clicking on the tweet in the feed to go directly to it takes me to the backgroundless version. Right click to view the embedded version and it has a background.
It probably just depends on how the Twitter backend processes transparency when it makes the smaller version. Do both methods take you fo exactly the same image URL?
Wait, it’s not just the white box disappearing, there’s actually drawn background that disappears between versions! That’s really weird.
Either the background version was replaced with the transparent one after it was posted, or the original upload was a layered file that didn’t get handled properly.
Nothing against you personally, Rosicrucian, but can we…can we, like, get a censor on this phrase as well? So it’d be like, “Well they don’t call it ‘T-Rex.'”
My point with my initial comment was that “not called Smarting of Age” feels pretty played out by this point. However, that was rude to post in response to you using the phrase.
Yeah, I’m sure it will be SUCH an uncommon occurrence that someone’s making out in the elevator. As long as they don’t make Ruth get the hose, they are in the clear.
Yay cause hey Dottie you’re not supposed to throw away your support group in stressful situations. You can’t pause a husband and kids when you’re Lady Prez
*cut to shot of dorothy looking stoned, welcoming the supreme leader of north korea to a peace treaty signing, only to fall over snoring while signing*
Every time someone mentions that medicine I have to think of when someone cooked chicken in Nyquil, ate two pieces, and finally made a smoothie of the third piece, the nyquil broth, and some whiskey.
Well, the etymology appears to be unclear, but what hints there are suggest it’s derived either from Scottish or Germanic. If it’s Germanic, the plural would be Doofuse. If it’s Scottish…
…. wait. Scottish is GAELIC.
……. fuck me.
*ten minutes of research later* OKAY. I think I’ve narrowed the most likely candidates down to doofuis, doofusan, doofusean, doofuisean, doofsan, doofsean, doofusachean, doofusaichean, doofu-…
… hold on. If If the etymology IS Scottish that would be from the Scottish vowel “doof” adapted to English, so I need to pluralize the ADJECTIVE and then add the -us to the end rather than pluralizing the noun. So I should really be looking at the rules for pluralizing a Scottish ADJECTIVE, which are…. huh….
Chekov’s elevator? As soon as we actually see someone use an elevator, the elevator has to be a critical peice of the story. Otherwise why waste space showing people standing around in a moving box.
People is soap operas only drive when they are about to get into an accident. They have the worst driving records. They always end up in the dicth in the snow and need to take off their clothes to get warm.
You can only go ‘on pause’ if not being around each other is possible without going a bit peculiar. I think that we’ve established that Dorothy and Walky are not one of those couples able to function well whilst apart.
You know, I was making a reference, but I’m kinda the same way. I don’t drink alcohol, so I haven’t had an actual pina colada, but I like virgin pina coladas and many things with that flavor set.
“I AM JUST PURSING MY LIPS I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU HAPPEN TO LEAN INTO THEM”
“WELL I AM JUST GETTING A HUGE BONER I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU HAPPEN TO MOUNT IT”
“OK WE ARE IN AGREEMENT”
…and now I’m thinking of Bart and Lisa with the arm-spinning/air-kicking fight. Not the best thought given this comic.
Boners make you think of Bart and Lisa?
Weird
I can think of like 3 crazy ex girlfriend songs that could work here. Maybe most fitting is ‘we should definitely not have sex right now’
This is a safe space! We don’t shame anybody for their weird, super-gross sex fantasies that probably have deep psychological implications for why they’re a total failure as a person.
And ain’t it a boon.
Yeah, someone’s getting a surprise when the elevator opens. A nickel says it’s Mike.
Or Amber, full of respect for Walky on account of his decision to stop dating Dorothy to give her a chance at the life she wants
I am seeing Faz in the future. He will surely hope to get involved.
I want it to be Danny simply because of his snarky remark when he found out they were broken up.
Guys, guys! We can have ALL of those. Amber and Danny are keeping Faz restrained atm and could just be leaving class, and Mike could just happen to show up. It would be glorious.
Eeeeeeeeee!
To the roof!
About to join the 5 Floor High Club.
Or however tall Read is.
Man, we blew all the good ‘Love In An Elevator’ jokes yesterday…
Oh good. I know this won’t last until the inevitable Full Burnout, but for now, good. Though if this includes Dotty sleeping and maybe eating some more soon, even better.
Free will is an illusion! All glory to the elevator!
The elevator is the ultimate shipper! It’s will is law!
It’s Willis Law!
+1 internets for that pun
That Logic 101 class is working pretty well for them.
CaaannnnNnN YOU fEEEL the loooove toniiiiight~ The peace the Elevatoooor bRIIIiIiIIngs~!
The rise and fall in Perrrrfect harmony with aaaalllll our Hip thruSTings!
I’m dying lmao
Reeeeeaaallly hope Faz isn’t somehow in the elevator too.
He’s not in the tags, I’m sure it’s safe… probably.
Just A Song Before I Go
To whom it may concern
Travelin’ twice the Speed of Sound
It’s easy to get burned…
wait
what if Joyce pressed the down button. XD
Well, Sex ed. has to happen at some point.
Elevator isn’t the only thing that’s going up.
Hit the right buttons and it won’t be the only thing going down either
did this make anyone else think of the crazy ex girlfriend season 2 theme song?
BLAM! *Stares at you for just a beat too long*
Elevator door opens and Faz is there to say “I have no objections to a three-way provided my penis does not come into contact with yours.”
Also slipshine when?
A true Dumbing of Age experience
Beautiful sexy chaos.
Also, YOU WERE NEVER RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OTHER’S ACTIONS.
*YELLS AT FICTIONAL CHARACTERS VIA THE INTERNET*
I think this is them understanding that.
Possibly. To me it reads more like “because we are on pause we are not responsible for the other’s actions.” Not, “at no point in our relationship were we” etc.
I think they normally feel very responsible for each other’s actions, which is stressful and a trap for them in general. This is different, and a relief.
I reacted the same way.
I KNOW, RIGHT!!!
Yeah.

Either the background version was replaced with the transparent one after it was posted, or the original upload was a layered file that didn’t get handled properly.
The version on Tumblr doesn’t have a background either, but the version with a background still appears on the embedded feed close to 24 hours later.
SLURP SLURP SLURP
Well they don’t call it “Smarting of Age.”
Nothing against you personally, Rosicrucian, but can we…can we, like, get a censor on this phrase as well? So it’d be like, “Well they don’t call it ‘T-Rex.'”
Because they do not.
This was kind of a jerk reply, sorry.
I’m honestly not knocking it.
College kids make mistakes.
The comic would be boring without them.
Hm? I meant my reply?
My point with my initial comment was that “not called Smarting of Age” feels pretty played out by this point. However, that was rude to post in response to you using the phrase.
Classics never go out of style 🙂
It’s a good phrase, bront! 😉
(personally I have mixed feelings about the suggestion)
… but for me, it was Wednesday.
They don’t call it Smarting of Age, but for me it was Wednesday. Hm. Let me get back to you.
My understanding is that Mike would not be opposed to some bondage and a whip, so at least one character is into smarting.
It starts with f
Dorothy has a choking fetish
When you click on the video to pause but it doesn’t
It’s gonna be pretty awkward for whoever is waiting for that elevator.
Unless it’s Mike. Not sure if things even CAN be awkward for Mike.
In the entire whole history of the Willisverse, has Mike ever been nonplussed?
In college?
Yeah, I’m sure it will be SUCH an uncommon occurrence that someone’s making out in the elevator. As long as they don’t make Ruth get the hose, they are in the clear.
Joyce–“Is that a new standpipe?”
Ruth–“Yep, right next to the elevator.”
Joyce–“Where the fudge are we, the Iriquois Theater? Don’t the sprinklers work?”
Ruth–“Oh, this is for a different kind of emergency.”
Yay cause hey Dottie you’re not supposed to throw away your support group in stressful situations. You can’t pause a husband and kids when you’re Lady Prez
“Presidents don’t take sick days; presidents take NyQuil Severe.”
*cut to shot of dorothy looking stoned, welcoming the supreme leader of north korea to a peace treaty signing, only to fall over snoring while signing*
Every time someone mentions that medicine I have to think of when someone cooked chicken in Nyquil, ate two pieces, and finally made a smoothie of the third piece, the nyquil broth, and some whiskey.
And suddenly the elevator breaks down and gets stuck while Faz somehow manages to get inside…
How much do you wanna bet that Dina, with her ninja-like powers of invisibility, is already in the elevator?
Well, I notice we haven’t looked back at the front wall of the elevator (including floor-button panel) from inside yet … so yeah!
–Dave, but she’s too busy texting with Becky to have noticed shenanigans
I’m thinking there is a 5th F Dorothy may need to add.
Oh shit are we getting another Slipshine?
“Going Down on The Way Up: Walky Performs Another Sex”
Did you know that if you are going down on someine the exact moment the elevator falls up, you don’t die?
…yes?
Walky had better perform a quick sex if he’s to finish before they arrive.
Ah, come on Dorthy, how are you going to break his heart if you do this?
Her tongue is slowly working it’s way down his throat and then will wrap itself around his heart and destroy.
The pudding cup was merely practice.
Jesus “Five-Person Bicycle” Christ
That’s sounds likes a scene from Wicked City
I love them but ugh.
I’m like YES and NO
I personally don’t care about these two
then why reply
You doofi 🙂
Is that the proper plural for doofus?
Not doofuseses?
I’m very hesitant on the issue.
Doofi is kinda latinised grammar, which is fun in a dorky way.
Doofuses is cuter, which is cute in a cute way.
So… I’ll probably go with both.
How about doofusi?
Well, the etymology appears to be unclear, but what hints there are suggest it’s derived either from Scottish or Germanic. If it’s Germanic, the plural would be Doofuse. If it’s Scottish…
…. wait. Scottish is GAELIC.
……. fuck me.
*ten minutes of research later* OKAY. I think I’ve narrowed the most likely candidates down to doofuis, doofusan, doofusean, doofuisean, doofsan, doofsean, doofusachean, doofusaichean, doofu-…

So I should really be looking at the rules for pluralizing a Scottish ADJECTIVE, which are…. huh….
*ten more minutes of research later*
SCREW IT IT’S GERMANIC!
*from the Scottish ADJECTIVE “doof”
And here I was thinking Scottish had a previously unknown to me vowel “doof”.
This discussion went much better than I could have imagined 🙂
Now pronounce Gaelic
“Fuck sanity.”
…. yes, I know, that’s not how the word LOOKS like it’s supposed to be pronounced, but that’s Gaelic for you.
“gay-lick”?
*giggles*
apparently I’m 12 today. 🙂
… du\”ufidia.
–Dave, look, it’s irregular, okay? english as she is stolen
If you’re trying to pluralize ‘doofus’, it’s ‘doofii’. The second ‘i’ is important.
Ah, thanks.
You are actively trying to hurt me, aren’t you? >_>
*is in pain too*
I don’t think that’s how that works, kids
Hmm. Shit, you can’t post JUST a link.
http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/641/906/ade.png
Seriously, did anyone not expect an outcome like this? 😉
Having thought about it, I suspect that the elevator has been called by Faz. His reaction may be interesting!
Chekov’s elevator? As soon as we actually see someone use an elevator, the elevator has to be a critical peice of the story. Otherwise why waste space showing people standing around in a moving box.
People is soap operas only drive when they are about to get into an accident. They have the worst driving records. They always end up in the dicth in the snow and need to take off their clothes to get warm.
Does that also work in elevators?
On pause my ass
Pause on your ass?
Only if you’re furry
You can only go ‘on pause’ if not being around each other is possible without going a bit peculiar. I think that we’ve established that Dorothy and Walky are not one of those couples able to function well whilst apart.
Paw Dorothy’s ass. Fixed that for you.
Unpause my ass
Say you’ll [censor] me again
Undo this hurt I caused
When I closed my dorm door.
Your ass unpaused,
I’ll never censor you again,
I Kiss away the pain you cause
When the
I bet when they get back down to the first floor go running to Amber and Danny who are also makeup making out.
I guessing that they arrive on the roof to find Danny and Sal duetting again.
Damn romantic elevator wooing all the ladies and not leaving any for me.
Dawwww… :3 Now, FORNICATE!
Or some other F-word.
Filigree? Finaggle? Fungible? Finland?
…
Faz?
NO, that is one F word that should never be associated with what is going on here XD
FAAAAAAAAAACE
–Dave, though I’ve never quite understood the proper usage procedure for this meme, it seems appropriate
Yo, but you’re still responsible for your own actions, guys.
Guys?
And to think, I was the only one to see that coming
Walky you friggin’ idiot. You haven’t used a toothbrush in, like, three days.
Hey nice callback
Walky and Becky truly are birds of a feather.
To Joyce’s great confusion.
Love knows no boundaries.
Not even halitosis.
Hey, she is hungry and he has Nugget breath, it is probably turning her on.
Well this won’t be the first time Walky’s pants have been undone in this elevator.
Why does it kinda feel like they’re cheating on each other with each other?
Can you even do that?
If you like pina coladas…
Haven’t tried one yet, but I always enjoy candy with that flavor.
You know, I was making a reference, but I’m kinda the same way. I don’t drink alcohol, so I haven’t had an actual pina colada, but I like virgin pina coladas and many things with that flavor set.
And how did Candy feel?
Like sandpaper and regret.
*rants and raves about ongoing stuff in GWS*
not a lot of Smarting over there either. >.<
If Kamino Neko’s comment means what I think it means, I’d say there’s quite a lot of smarting, actually.
Pushing all the right buttons!
If it’s only been a day,
and yesterday was Monday,
doesn’t that mean
They’re going up on a Tuesday?
They be makin’ love on Wednesday
An’ on Thursday an’ Friday an’ Saturday
Netflix and Chill on Sunday
<333333333333
I like how Dorothy’s resolve lasted exactly one elevator trip to the first floor.
I’d say “get a room!” but they are already in one – albeit a very small one. They truly are a sweet couple.
Hmm, maybe an over the hill rock group can make a song about this.
