    Awkward…

      BONDING THROUGH DEPRESSION, HUZZAH.

      1. MichaelHaneline

        You guys have it ALL WRONG. She’s isn’t crying because she’s sad. Her eyes are just watering because Walky hasn’t showered in 3 days.

        1. lord of dance

          I was thinking that either A: todays happenings are just now hitting her, or B: walky accidentally put on some really raunchy pron

        2. Plutonium Kitten

          “For your information there’s an inflammation in her tear gland”

        3. MichaelHaneline

          “Her eyes are just a little sweaty today…”

        4. Rex Hondo

          Or as Batman would refer to it, “An involuntary lacrimal gland spasm.”

        5. rawredy

          Why is she leaking?

        6. Reboot

          It’s what they call “tears”. It’s a sign of their weakness.

        8. McGruff the Crime Dog

          So, you’re leaving, aren’t you’
          I knew it when you said just then when you told me you were leaving
          That’s when I definitely knew
          But if you’re trying to break my heart
          Your plan is flawed from the start
          You can’t break my heart, it’s liquid
          It melted when I met you
          And as you turn around to leave
          Don’t’ turn back to me
          Don’t turn around and see if I’m crying
          I’m not crying

          I’m not crying
          It’s just been raining
          on my face
          And if you think you see some tear tracks down my cheeks
          Please. Pleasee, don’t tell my mates
          I’m not crying
          No, I’m not crying
          And if I am crying
          It’s not because of you
          It’s because I’m thinking about a friend of mine who you don’t know who is dying
          That’s right, dying
          These aren’t tears of sadness because you’re leaving me
          I’ve just been cutting onions
          I’m making a lasagna
          For one
          Oh, I’m not crying
          No
          There’s just a little bit of dust in my eye
          That’s from the path that you made when you said your goodbye
          I’m not weeping because you won’t be here to hold my hand
          For your information there’s an inflammation in my tear gland
          I’m not upset because you left me this way
          My eyes are just a little sweaty today
          They’ve been looking around
          They’re like searching for you
          They’ve been looking for you
          Even though I told them not to
          These aren’t tears of sadness
          They’re tears of joy
          I’m just laughing
          Ha ha ha-ha ha
          I’m sitting at this table called love
          Staring down at the irony of life
          How come we’ve reached this fork in the road
          And yet it cuts like a knife’
          I’m not crying
          I’m not crying
          I’m not cry-y-y-y-
          -y-y-y-y-ing

        9. Blob Marley

          I WAS CRYYYYYIN WHEN I MET YOU
          NOW I’M TRYYYYYIN TO FORGET YOUUUUUU

          YOUR LOVE IS SWEEEEEET MISERYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

        10. nninja555

          She’s making a lasagna… for one.

        11. Henry

          For some reason, that grav seems perfect for that comment.

        12. Jamal K.

          For one?? Pfft, never had lasgna with onions. Make it double.

      2. Kirby-oh

        My relationships with many women hinge on exactly that.

    2. methermeneus

      You mean “awwwwww… -kward.”

  2. The Sound Defense

    This is adorable and awkward at the same time.

    1. Wandering meme

      Awkdorable?

      1. MichaelHaneline

        Awdorkwarble

        1. Cybersnark

          Dorkwarble is my new favourite word.

          It describes that inarticulate noise that’s somewhere between a “squee” and a delighted gasp.

          Or possibly the cry of a particularly endearing bird.

    2. calendarman27

      d’aaaaawwkward?

  3. Jack Napier

    Sad d’awwww…

    1. Seerow

      /signed

  4. Mkvenner

    Did I miss something?

    1. Mkvenner

      Ohhhh it’s a copping mechanism.

      1. Ancestral Hamster

        Do you mean “coping” “or “groping” mechanism?

        1. Mkvenner

          coping.

        2. XMD

          With her penis.

        3. Wandering meme

          In his man-gina.

        4. narmenduke

          The DoA meme chain has suddenly taken a dark turn…

        5. Wandering meme

          This has been your daily dose of the wandering meme…

          …HONOR ME!!!

        6. Henry

          For a nickel?

        7. PedanticJerkass

          FAAAAAAACE. There, that one’s out of the way now as well, even if it doesn’t make any sense (as if it ever did to begin with). Hopefully all of these dumb memes will be limited to one thread per comic.

        8. Ancestral Hamster

          That’s what I thought you meant, but it would be funnier if it was “groping” mechanism.

  5. Jen Aside

    But… but… that’s not Joyce’s bunk!

    =(

    1. Blob Marley

      Rosie the Riveter says:
      You can’t win the war with only one ship!

      1. Rikushadow5

        You won the comment of the day award!!

        What’ll you do now?

        1. Blob Marley

          Sail into the sunset on the S.S. DinaWalky

    2. nothri

      Meh. Threesomes are more fun than love triangles anyway.

  6. Plasma Mongoose

    Am I missing the punchline here?

    1. David Herbert

      The punchline is sadness. (She has tears in her eyes)

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        I must be losing it, does this mean that Monkey Master is not helping her mood??

        1. Rex Hondo

          I’d say it means the episode where Monkey Master got date raped was an unfortunate choice.

        2. TemplarKnight

          Totally came here to make that joke.

        3. Wackd

          Seconded. God damnit.

        4. Just for kix

          God damnit.

      2. Wandering meme

        The punchline is bow-chicka-bow-wow

      3. MichaelHaneline

        Mike would find this punchline HILARIOUS.

    2. Jack Napier

      The joke is…there is no joke.

      1. Lordphulish

        The joke is a lie!

        1. Wandering meme

          Not the joke too!

          First the cake, now this…

    3. Kernanator

      The punchline is porn. Maybe.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Very sad porn apparently.

        1. Kernanator

          Yeah, it’s called End of Evangelion *rimshot*

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          End of Utena would have been way better and just as confusing as fuck.

        3. iSaidCandleja-

          I saw that one, and can see how it would be sad. Shinji made a mess and got his orange goo all over the place. That was so f’ed up.

        4. David

          Not just his orange goo. All kinds of his goo.

        5. Wandering meme

          His goo is orange?

        6. Kernanator

          Yes. He probably needs to get that checked out by a doctor.

        7. Plasma Mongoose

          The orange goo is PEOPLE!

        8. Zuche

          Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
          Orange goo!
          We could change back if we wanted to!
          Orange goo!
          ABBAgelion wouldn’t have worked for you.

        9. Asuka L.S.

          I try to forget that scene, actually. It was even more awkward than “Asuka and Rei ride an elevator”.

        10. Kernanator

          Yeah, masturbation is awkward. I should know, I walked in on my roommate while he was doing it.

          ALL I WANTED WAS OREO COOKIES, WHY DID I GET SAUSAGE?!

      2. The Sound Defense

        Most appropriate icon ever?

        1. Blob Marley

          Walky naked chowing down on McNugs – wayyyyy more inappropriate.

    4. Kirt Dankmyer

      The drama tag is pre-pulled on this comic. There isn’t always a punchline.

  7. Chrisby

    OOPS HE PUT IN A PORN DVD.

    1. Henry

      Yeah. When you have a roomate like Mike, you always have to make sure the discs and cases haven’t been switched.

      1. iSaidCandleja-

        The discs were not switched, this is Monkey Master porn.

        1. Henry

          Which would be in the regular season collections…why?

        2. Chrisby

          Like you said, because of Mike!

        3. Chrisby

          Oh wait Candlejack said the discs weren’t switched, my mista

        4. Henry

          Oops. Looks like you ninja’d my other post.

        5. Rikushadow5

          Chirsby, WHY did you say his name?

        6. L

          Whose name?

        7. Henry

          He said Candleja–

        8. katzgoboom

          Applejack?

        9. Henry

          Yes.

        10. Henry

          But he would have put those there. That would involve switching either the discs or the covers.

        11. katzgoboom

          The better question is, why does it exist in the first place and why does Walky own it?

        12. Blob Marley

          It exists because of Rule 34. Come on now, you should know this!

        13. Jetstream

          Because Mike went to the FACTORY years ago and made sure that Monkey Master Porn was inserted into literally every single boxed set. JUST IN CASE.

        14. Henry

          Mike is the factory. For Monkey Master Rule 34. Purely in anticipation of having Walky as his roomate.

        15. fellixe

          Monkey Master porn can be awkward. He’s just sitting there, plugged in to Sensitive Scanner, then shooting off his monkey gun.

        16. Henry

          Brain Bleach now required.

        17. Zuche

          Brain Bleach not included with purchase. Additional conditions may apply; see store for details.

        18. Henry

          You bastard.

        19. Blob Marley

          Monkey Master [takes the] Bait.

        20. Roborat

          Aaaaaand there we go. I knew you perverts had a Monkey Masterbating joke in you. I am surprised it took so long. And relieved because it saves me from having to make the joke.

    2. Zem

      I’m still immature enough to enjoy sexual innuendos so.

    3. Henry

      Dorothy is crying because her childhood has just been molested in a dark alley. What has been seen cannot be unseen.

  8. David Herbert

    Quick, Walky, start talking about sand! That’ll charm her.

    1. Thor

      Ouch. Nasal coffee expulsion.

    2. MM

      As long as he doesn’t throw things at her again. There’s been enough head trauma for one night.

  9. Henry

    Walky needs to make a move.
    Now.

    1. MichaelHaneline

      I think its very telling when one sees a depressed girl/woman and think “opening.”

      1. Henry

        It’s a natural opportunity for hugs.
        In this context, I think that counts as ‘making a move.’

        Not sure what you thought. Get your mind out of the gutter, sir. (That’s a joke, btw.)

        1. Fauxlosopher

          Yeah, I’m predicting Dorothy hugging Walky in response to the nights events and Walky not knowing what to do. I’m guessing he still employs obfuscating stupidity, so he’s going to know that it’s not romantic, and it is possible that by showing a sign of maturity here Dorothy starts liking him more; perhaps not attracted to him, but becoming closer.

          Unfortunately, if he starts acting like a grown up, everyone is going to expect him to dress like a grown up. That means wearing ties. THE TIES ARE COMING FOR YOU WALKY!

        2. wererat2000

          four panels, only two of wich have speech.
          all i have to say.

        3. Zuche

          Two sentence fragments, neither of them particularly helpful. Or, to put it another way:

          Fine words do not a comic make,
          Nor images a tale.

        4. Jacob

          Quick Walky, run away from the Windsor Nazis!!!!!

        5. Blob Marley

          Haha, that’s funny because it’s a play on words. I like jokes! (Seriously, I laughed)

        6. Zuche

          Isn’t it a little early in their relationship to be discussing bondage?

    2. Kurtulmak

      Yes, after all, tears are the best natural lubricant.

      1. iSaidCandleja-

        Daily squick quota achieved. Thank you for that.

        1. Henry

          Brain Bleach.

      2. Rex Hondo

        You’ve been watching a bunch of Japanese porn again, haven’t you?

    3. Rex Hondo

      Like throw his “Monkey Master” at her head and shout “I GIVE IT TO YOU!”

      1. Henry

        Projectile assault is sure to win over all hearts and minds!

  10. MarcinMN

    Aww….Dorothy and Walky are going to have a moment….

    1. Blob Marley

      More like a BROment.

    2. Rex Hondo

      …But only a moment. It is his first time, after all…

  11. addude

    Dorothy is going to cry and then Mike will cry because he didn’t cause it

    1. Henry

      No, Mike will “help” Walky be empathetic by making him cry. With a kick to the balls.

      Then he’ll bang Walky’s mom, just for good measure. With his penis. It should only cost him a nickel.

      1. Alex

        in her FAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE.

        1. Alex

          wow, i honestly feel dirty…

        2. Zuche

          Then here, have a washcloth. No charge.

        3. Roborat

          Why is it crunchy?!?!?

        4. Kernanator

          Because he put it in the toaster.

  12. Platypus

    Hmm, intriguing.

  13. Kernanator

    WHOOPS, WRONG DVD.

    1. Zuche

      Yeah, “Walking with Dinosaurs” was intended for another audience.

      1. Kernanator

        Seriously, stop watching Evangelion, IT’S JUST GOING TO MAKE THINGS WORSE.

  14. Jaredstar

    to quote piro in one of his books “sometimes life doesnt have a punch line

    1. Merkury

      Problem is, megatokyo never has a punchline.

      1. begbert2

        Sure it does – at least as often as is necessary to lure you into a false sense of security.

      2. Roborat

        Yes it does, but you will be living in an old age home before he posts it.

  15. Croaxleigh

    Dorothy: “Ok, this isn’t working. Let’s try random meaningless sex.”

    -elsewhere-

    Joe: “I suddenly feel like I’m missing something. I don’t know why, but it makes me very sad.”

    1. ScytheAkse

      I sense a disturbance in the force

      1. iSaidCandleja-

        You mean a disturbance in the pants.

        1. Wandering meme

          Sooooo, she’s gonna date rape HIM now…right?

          Man, where’d she put her rufies?

        2. Fauxlosopher

          If we’re talking about Joe, that is the Force.

        3. Alex

          penis* with his penis.
          god, you MISSED that!?

        4. Zuche

          You could say it went right over his head.

        5. Rex Hondo

          Who’s penis went over who’s head now?

    2. Wackd

      “My pants suddenly got tight and I have no idea why.”

    3. Lordphulish

      I have the weirdest boner right now?

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        I would consult a plastic surgeon about that.

      2. Blob Marley

        Joe – Why boner?
        8===D – BECAUSE! C:

    4. Asuka L.S.

      You WOULD, Walkerton.

  16. dchorror

    Looks like they started on the wrong episode.

    1. Ridureyu

      You mean the one where everybody worships Satan and stabs Jews?

      1. fellixe

        Walky has “Birth Of A Nation” fanfic?

      2. dchorror

        Nah, he started up the after school special.

  17. Ridureyu

    Walky had better not slip something in her drink!

  18. ALostProphet

    “Nothing good happens after 2AM”

    Oh Dorothy, why must you be so cruel?

  19. Ryan Balis

    I smell regret

    1. Kernanator

      I smell McNuggets. Don’t worry, I often get the two confused.

      1. Mute

        Man, you’re on fire today

        1. Kernanator

          I know, I need to get some ointment for that or something. (Seriously though, I don’t know why, I’m just on a roll in general today.)

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          Just avoid rubbing Tiger Balm on your junk, it is NOT a good idea, TRUST ME ON THIS.

        3. katzgoboom

          …………….I’m going to regret asking this, but why is this a bad idea…?

        4. Jetstream

          Tiger Balm is a muscle cream, like Icy Hot or Ben Gay.

        5. David

        6. begbert2

          It’s rather amazing the scope (and type) of topics you have covered in your comic career.

        7. narmenduke

          Man, Joe is a dick. And it truly is excruciating.

        8. Blob Marley

          No, Joe actually enjoys it. Which, really, is probably worse.

        9. Rikushadow5

          It’s funny, because I was just thinking about posting the link to that comic, then suddenly, Willis has already done it.

          DAMN YOU, WILLIS, YOU NINJA.

        10. Asuka L.S.

          Does it really hurt that bad? O_O

        11. Michelle J Caboose

          Considering the burning/freezing sensation it gives, combined with the overall sensitivity of genitals in general…

          …I’d say, probably yes.

        12. narmenduke

          Yes. Yes it does.

      2. Lordphulish

        No, regret smells the failure bowl from KFC.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          I think I will stick with the Fillets Box from KFC, it smells better.

  20. Dahlia

    Hey! She deals with problems the same way I DO!

    …

    Well, admittedly I just pop in a Disney movie, Disney/Pixar movie, or Sailor Moon…but it still counts as watching cartoons to cope with life’s burdens! D:

    1. Wackd

      For me it’s either a good book or British comedy. Tonight I was stressed but a couple of episodes of That Mitchell and Webb Look made it all better.

    2. sir buzzkillington III

      i usually just strangle small, cute, cuddly things…

    3. begbert2

      I recommend that last episode of Nephlite’s, for true relaxation. He turns sparkly!

  21. Joraiem

    That’s how I deal with depression. Watch the hell out of some cartoons.

    1. Asuka L.S.

      Anime is to me what alcohol is to Billie.

  22. NCP19

    Oh no! Now Dorothy is going to (sub)consciously associate Dexter and Monkey Master with date rape drugs and that douchebag Ryan! NOOOO! (And perhaps now Walky will associate it with depressed and sad Dorothy! NOOOO again)

    1. Wackd

      Man, Dexter is ruined.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        You mean Dexter from Dexter’s Lab?

    2. nothri

      I already associate Dexter with brutal murder and dismemberment. But I may be thinking of something else.

      1. Tamfang

        Yeah, me too. Though I wouldn’t say “brutal”; I’d rather be murdered by Dexter than by most of his clients ….

  23. y3k

    Man, this is going to end in like, TEN different levels of awkward.

    1. TheRealAllPurposeGuru

      one,

      two,

      three, there’s four,

      five, six, seven,

      I guess that’s eight,

      nine,

      …I must have missed one.

      1. Roborat

        It’s over there. No, to your left, behind the cupboard.

        1. Wackd

          It’s in a box with the ambiguity.

        2. Rex Hondo

          Why do these things always have to devolve into a pixel hunt?

  24. ALostProphet

    “What smells like McNuggets?”

    1. Wackd

      Could be worse. Could be shoe polish.

  25. NakedDumblydore

    …Now make out. Make out, dammit!

    1. iSaidCandleja-

      Does that ever work?

      1. Kernanator

        Once, on a TV show.

        1. Phillip Wilde

          That worked for me on Glee in a scene between Blaine and Kurt. But only once. I think I lost the power after that.

        2. Blob Marley

          You wasted that power on GLEE? For shame, sir or madam. For SHAAAAAAME!

        3. Wandering meme

          Don’t knock it if it works.

          Admittedly though, i’d’ve tried it on starwars…dressed like palpatine…wielding a vibrating lightsaber…covered in ky extreme…

          …man I need help.

    2. Thor

      Or at least peek down her loosely-fitting top.

      (Hmm…is that what he’s doing in panel 3?)

      1. MM

        He could be trying to figure out whether he should go for the arm around the shoulder.

      2. JackNapier

        Looks more like he’s focusing on her hair judging by the angle of his eyes.

    3. Gargamel

      Yes but it was initialised by the lady.
      So Kiss him you fool!

      1. Gargamel

        Damn thread structure: That comment was directed at iSaidCandleja-.

  26. A. Colunga

    For a moment I thought they were watching Dexter – the murderer.

    1. fellixe

      This crossover should happen!

    2. Valdrax

      Dexter must follow the Code of Honeybun.

  27. Digidestined of Trust (Tim)

    Put a calming hand on her shoulder! QUICK! Don’t be dense Walky!

  28. ScytheAkse

    Hug her damnit hug her!

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Or throw a bigger plushie at her head at least.

      1. iSaidCandleja-

        Yes, he’ll throw his plushie at her. She might leave it on the floor again though.

      2. Kernanator

        So, Plasma, who’s the Icon of the Day?

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Today’s grav is brought to you by Pokemon White, she is the female protagonist Hilda.

          YAAAAAAAY! *Kermit the frog style*

        2. Jackson

          Plasma Mongoose, I like how when you change your avatar, it renders all previous comments about your avatar absurd.

        3. Jackson

          Not sarcasm, by the way. I genuinely like it!

        4. Plasma Mongoose

          That’s the bonus benefit. When I post a comment sarcastically, I tend to use the 😛 symbol.

        5. Wackd

          *flails arms wildly*

      3. Wandering meme

        it’s gonna be another drama button moment after they both wake up next to mike.

        And wonder why both they’re anal cavities hurt.

        1. ScytheAkse

          You sir just made my night.

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          and given a chance, Mike can make your hole weak. 😀

        3. Phillip Wilde

          You win all the internets.

        4. Wandering meme

          I just hope you’re ready plasma…preparedness is everything.

        5. Rikushadow5

          Plasma, that was so amazing I had to read it twice to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating the amazing concentration.

        6. TheRealAllPurposeGuru

          Between Plasma Mongoose and Kernanator I am in the presence of greatness.

        7. Plasma Mongoose

          I like to thank the influence of the various innuendo enriched British comedies of the 60s, 70s and 80s for the style of humour I often espress when I post on the internets.

        8. Kernanator

          Oh stop, you’re making me blush!

  29. saturnwonder

    He’s not freaking out that she’s there, why is he not freaking out? WHY?!

    1. Lee

      He’s too shocked to be freaking out.

      1. Fauxlosopher

        Or, as has been pointed out to me before when I brought up that very thing, now that Dorothy brought it up and pre-emptively shot him down it is possible that he’s not at all worried about the impression he makes.

  30. Lee

    Awww, Dorothy. I like Dorothy. Dorothy is a good character.

    1. Blob Marley

      That gravatar turns that nice, wholly appropriate statement into something dirtysexy.

      1. Asuka L.S.

        You see it too?

        1. Blob Marley

          Gravatar, how are you so prescient and awesome?

  31. Romanticide

    Aww Dorothy :(¨Refuge in beloved series sniff.

  32. a99steaksauce

    And then they lived an awkward and mildly depressing life together. The End.

    1. Wackd

      Somehow your avatar makes it funnier.

      1. a99steaksauce

        I know right?
        I found it strange that im the first ive seen with drunk mike.

        1. narmenduke

          So, the gravatar/comment combination gave me an amusing visual of Mike narrating a kids’ movie storybook style.

          Storytime With Mike needs to be a thing now. Willis, make it happen.

        2. Blob Marley

          Second.

        3. Asuka L.S.

          Third. The motion should totally pass.

        4. a99steaksauce

          glad that i can help out.

        5. MM

          Wouldn’t that basically begin and end with “I f-ed your mom?”

        6. a99steaksauce

          What about with drunk mike sobering up over time.

  33. Uniqueantique

    I have a feeling it wouldnt matter what was on the screen, I’m not sure she’s ever ‘seeing’ it. And if it is porn, why isn’t Walky making a mad dash to replace the disk when he sees what’s playing?

    1. Wackd

      He’s still wide-eyed and shocked, hitting that point is just taking longer. He’s reached the “can barely move” stage.

      1. Blob Marley

        He put the disc in fresh. Having watched one or two in my life, I can tell you that there’s plenty of intro advertisements and stuff in the first minute (usually before you even get to the dirty stuff) that would alert you that, no, this is NOT D&MM. He could switch the movie out LONG before people started getting, I dunno, hit in the face with fuzzy toys.

        1. iSaidCandleja-

          I wouldn’t know about that. But I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a porn genre known as D&MM.

  34. Uniqueantique

    er…darn no edit….that should be ” even seeing it”

  35. iggzy

    Walky is handling this surprisingly well

    1. Roborat

      What do you mean? He has gone catatonic. I am just waiting for the nosebleed when he “accidently” looks down her top.

  36. Doom Shepherd

    Walky. It is tiem. Giv hugz.

    Also, this is a much better coping mechanism than mine, which is to completely suppress the depression (along with most other emotions) and let it fester quietly until it explodes forth as a mental illness.

    1. fellixe

      Yes, I’m having a hard time trying to find the key to making that approach work myself.

      1. Wandering meme

        I’d go with “sooo…you wanna talk about it?”

        1. Lordphulish

          Hey. Hey you. Want a sooooda?

        2. Jacob

          As long as it isn’t Sierra Mist.

      2. aqua

        Therapist loves telling you how this is a bad coping method, they usually wind up getting a few thousand dollars out of you if they need to tell you this.

        1. Zuche

          Money that could have bought a lot of cartoons, right?

        2. Blob Marley

          Damn you Celebrity Jeopardy! I can never look at the word “therapist” the same again. Especially in the context of these last few strips.

        3. Zuche

          I’ve read it that way since grade school. Fun times, fun times.

        4. Wandering meme

          That’s why he’s called “the-rapist”!

          Haiyoooooo

    2. eerilychildish

      Better than my traditional coping mechanism, which is served in a glass over ice, possibly mixed with soda.

      1. eerilychildish

        I let the site assign me a random avatar, and it gave me a lady. I AM NOT, NOR HAVE I EVER BEEN, A LADY.

        1. Heavensrun

          Insecure about our gender identity, are we?

        2. Heavensrun

          I let the site assign me a random avatar, and it gave me a brit. I AM NOT, NOR HAVE I EVER BEEN, A BRIT.

        3. Zuche

          And I AM NOT, NOR EVER HAVE BEEN…

          …no, wait. I’m good.

        4. Plasma Mongoose

          This is why I choose my own avatars. 😀

        5. Asuka L.S.

          Me too. Feels more personal that way. I like to have an avatar that actually represents a part of me, not just a random picture.

        6. Kernanator

          I picked Condom Cap Roz because I thought it was funny. Plus, it adds at least 50% more innuendo to my posts.

        7. eerilychildish

          Sleep deprivation somehow made that post seem funny to me at the time. Sleep deprivation does weird things to the brain.

        8. Kindof Awesome

          I had 5 hours of sleep last night
          This morning, I woke up and stabbed myself with the pointy bit of my compass. I then yelled at it and put it in time-out.

        9. begbert2

          I let this site assign me a random avatar too. I AM NOT, NOR HAVE I EVER BEEN, A COMIC STRIP CHARACTER.

        10. Heavensrun

          Awww…Your sarcastic mockery is better than mine.

        11. begbert2

          But my mockery would never have happened without the inspiration of yours, so take due credit good sir!

        12. Rex Hondo

          I’m not here to steal all your energon. Nope, not at all. Honest! Nothing to see here, move along…

        13. narmenduke

          I’m actually an alien.

        14. Blob Marley

          Damn. Beaten to the punch by… probably a couple hours.

        15. Jackson

          I let myself assign me a non-random avatar, and it gave me a me. I AM NOT, NOR HAVE I EVER–oh wait, I am me. Never mind.

        16. Wandering meme

          Liar!
          You replaced you with a clone you and are speaking by remote even now!!

          I salute you sir.

        17. fellixe

          What Jackson does not know is that we’ve secretly replaced him with Folger’s Crystals. Let’s see if he notices…

        18. MM

          That expression/gesture combo in your avatar? I’m turning it right back around on you.

        19. Wandering meme

          Win. Just…win.

  37. Wandering meme

    Psst…dorothy…
    bow.
    chicka.
    bow.
    Wow.
    Chicka-bow, chicka-bow-wow, chicka bow wow WOOOOOOOOOW!!

    *slap*

    1. Blob Marley

      Brown-chicken-brown-cowwwwww!

  38. Parismio

    That awkward moment when you realize your favorite childhood cartoon wasn’t as great as you remember.

    1. Gargamel

      Or movie, rewatched Evolution with Dan Aykroyd recently and… yeah.

  39. Jason

    His head is not blowing up like a balloon! Progress!

  40. Shag Grenade

    Damnit Willis! You need to make Dorothy LESS adorable. I wasn’t born to be a one woman man.

  41. Acher4

    That’s so cute and sad at the same time it makes me teary!

    In my FAAAACE!

  42. escushion

    A lot of things in this comic feel like college, but that one really reminds me of some nights with friends in those years.

    …good times!

  43. McGruff the Crime Dog

    This would have been creepy and inappropriate if the genders were reversed. “Hey female, it’s late, I’m getting in your room and I’m also in my pajamas! Put on a show for me! Yes, that’s good!”

    1. begbert2

      I still can’t accept that that shirt Dorothy’s got on is a pajama shirt. Those sleeves are not the sleeves of a normal wide-necked shirt worn shoved off the shoulder; if it were the one sleeve would extend much lower. That shirt was designed to be worn as she’s wearing it – which isn’t normal for PJs as far as I know.

  44. Jabberwocky

    Awkward turtle…

    1. narmenduke

      Oh, wow. I forgot that awkward turtle was a thing.

      1. Blob Marley

        Somebody showed up to A-Kon this year with their kid dressed as awkward turtle. SUPER adorable.

  45. ryan

    i thought she was going to stay up all night next to joyce?

    1. Spiffster13

      Sarah probably kicked everyone out of the dorm. Nothing they really can do now but wait it out anyway.

      I just hope that Dorothy is OK 🙁

  46. Animal

    I sense some emotional-trauma-recovery sex coming on.

    1. begbert2

      I would be astonished. Feel free to keep on wishing, though.

  47. Zuche

    This reminds me of the day I went to see Follow that Bird in theatres. It was the first time I fully realized that you can never go back.

    Huh. Thank you. That recollection might turn out to be very helpful right now.

  48. Blob Marley

    I wonder if Walky’s ever seen bra strap before? If he plays his cards right, MAXIMUM SIDEBOOB!

  49. Lone Wolf

    … So which episode are they watching?

    1. Bill M.

      She’s on the verge of tears and he’s looking away, so it could be any of the following:

      1) The episode where Monkey Master finds out that his cannons aren’t waterproof, and he’s killed his living ammunition.
      2) The episode where Dexter starts to forget who everyone is, and they then vanish into nothingness, only to realize it’s a dream (which was one of the worst episodes by a consensus of the fans and the creators).
      3) The episode where Dexter and Monkey Master become Dextra and Monkey Mistress.
      4) The episode where they cross over with Ultracar.
      or my final guess, 5) The episode where they focus on the side characters, and Dexter and Monkey Master only show up in the last 2 minutes.

  50. Richie9999

    Walky’s next moves will help form his future interactions with Dorothy for the time to come. Tread carefully Walky.

  51. nothri

    Its funny cause she’s traumatized.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      “Tragedy is when _I_ get a papercut. Comedy is when YOU slip on a banana peel and break your neck.”

      Unknown

      1. Zem

        Actually it’s from Mel Brooks.

  52. Tobias

    Yeah, I’ve been in Walky’s position before. Female friend stops by, offers to watch something, breaks down crying a couple minutes later. Awkward times.

    1. Zem

      So what’s the logic behind it? If she was going to ask for emotional support, why wouldn’t she say that? If she was afraid she wouldn’t be let in/would be taken advantage of, wouldn’t the same happen when she does break down?

      I’ll chalk it up to confused emotional states.

  53. Fonzelot

    I know that feel bro… and sis actually. I’ve been on both ends of this awkwardness.

    Here’s hoping it turns out ok.

  54. Fluttershy and Rarity are my OTP

    I’ve seen enough porn to know where this is going.

    1. Asuka L.S.

      No pizza delivery guy, no repair man, no cable guy, no milk man…I don’t see it going down any traditional road.

    2. Wackd

      He fixes the cable?

      1. Blob Marley

        Too much Reddit makes me want to upvote stuff everywhere on the interbutts.

        1. Wackd

          YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS? YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS, BLOB? YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU UPVOTE A STRANGER ON THE INTERBUTTS? THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS, BLOB! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU UPVOTE A STRANGER ON THE INTERBUTTS!

  55. Marty

    This is late, but I really LOVE the lighting in the last two panels, Willis
