      Danny Sticks It In The Crazy To Assert His (Non-Existant) Heterosexuality

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        I wouldn’t say NON-EXISTANT, more like 1-2 on the Kinsey Scale.

        1. Jen Aside

          sorry, I’m almost done with this thing http://goo.gl/8cL0Kv

        2. Mattyos

          shout out to my hometown team’s monster RB! Now if only they were capable of going to the superbowl and winning…

        3. Scott

          Danny be all like: http://goo.gl/v2WJe2

        4. Lokitsu

          Ummm… maybe I’ve finally gotten too old, but that sound extremely scatological to me.

        5. Jen Aside

          their damn filter is oddly limiting

          (“sexuality” passes fine, “madden” and “nfl2k” aren’t allowed”)

        6. Seth

          I would say ‘non-existent’. Being heterosexual doesn’t just mean being sexually attracted to the opposite sex; it means being sexually attracted exclusively (or almost exclusively) to the opposite sex. Danny’s attraction to Ethan could be a fluke, leaving Danny confused yet still basically heterosexual, but Word of God says otherwise.

        7. tinfoil theory

          Which part of heterosexual means exclusive?

        8. Robin

          The part where we don’t call a bisexual person “both heterosexual and homosexual”.

        9. Shadow12000

          We do though? “Bisexual” in itself means “Two Sexualities”, so in other words, “both homo and hetero”.

        10. zmm

          Bisexual the term was kinda created for the purpose of having a word to describe it because hetero and homo sexual were defined as specifically one or the other though. Lingustically anyway. Same with “bicurious” a word was created due to a sociological need, due to the definitions of both H-sexual words (I can not remmeber the word for that lol)

        11. Lokitsu

          Shadow12000: no it doesn’t. Bisexual means “attracted to both sexes/genders”. Homosexual means “attracted to the same (ie. your own) gender)”

        12. JWLM

          Saying one or another or neither is a false dichotomy. ‘Bisexual’ is a blanket term for people who can easily and naturally become sexually aroused by either men or women. Some of us are genuinely ‘both’. Others of us are panromantic and demisexual or panromantic and het/hom towards one gender and demi towards another. To outsiders, we all get lumped into a single bucket; our internal experience is typically much more nuanced.

        13. Kerry

          bisexual means “attracted to same and different genders”, or “attracted to two or more genders”, not “both genders”

        14. Lume

          Yeah. Many ‘heterosexual’ people are actually ‘heteroflexible.’ Surveys showed that 1 out of 8 admitted to having a same sex attraction, crush or fantasy at some point.

        15. zmm

          Haha I like that term. I hope it’s added to the lexicon eventually

        16. Lokitsu

          For pete’s sake NOWHERE in any of the recognized definitions of homosexuality, heterosexuality or bisexuality does it specify TO WHAT DEGREE one person is attracted to that gender(s). That’s something that is unique to every individual person. If folks stopped obsessing on whether “I’m straighter/gayer/bi-er than you” than we wouldn’t need all the ridiculous new terms.

        17. Lume

          http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heteroflexibility

        18. nkh

          More like HeteroflexiBillie, amirite?!?!

        19. Lume

          YOU ARE RIGHT I SHIP THAT

        20. Shadow12000

          Fitting gravitar for your argument.

      2. TachyonCode

        When the crazy petitions you outright, do you really need additional motivation?

      3. jeff

        that “sticking it in the crazy” thing is pretty misogynistic doncha think (like even as a tongue-in-cheek thing)

      1. Jen Aside

        oh shit, topical http://neopetcemetery.tumblr.com/post/96710650429

      2. TheSuicidalGiraffe

        Did someone say Giraffe? I SWEAR I KEEP HEARING PEOPLE SAY GIRAFFE…

        Must be loosing my mind…

        BUT SERIOUSLY IS ANYONE CALLING ME?

        1. anonymous

          Hm… 7 letters, has long neck, anagram of FIRE FAG…

    3. Alex C

      … and Joyce comes just in time to see the beginnings of “hanky panky”.

      … or Mike comes in on the Joyce setting and punches Danny in the throat.

    4. T Campbell

      I Slip it.

  2. Camachri

    … Well, it’s a healthier call to frick-frack than last week’s shenanigans.

  3. Jen Aside

    *pushes lapel pin* REBOOT

    1. timemonkey

      Double tap, my dear Jen Aside.

      1. Jen Aside

        but that would be INFRINGEMENT

        1. Shadow12000

          Don’t argue with Hexidecimal! What, are you suicidal or something?!

        2. Adork

          Yes, if you wish to survive the game you double tap.

        3. Jen Aside

          JEN ASIDE, AL!

    2. Haven

      I was gonna go with the obvious DC jokes, but this is so much better

      1. Daibhid C

        I was going to suggest she was getting a metallic costume with a high collar and a cape that attaches weirdly. And also she’s a jerk now. Because DRAMA!

    3. Paradox

      Just realized your name sounds like “genocide”.

      1. APersonAmI

        … How have I not realized this before now…

        1. Jen Aside

          The arbitrary association between the written and spoken word?

        2. Deanatay

          Wow. That’s the _first_ thing I thought of when I saw your name…

        3. Shadow12000

          My god the gravitars today are fantastically fitting.

  4. Idon'tcarenomore

    whoa girl. You were doing so well.

    1. kagato23

      She’s gonna be doing better soon.

      IN comic book form, i’m hoping it turns out Danny was behind this all along.

  5. Plasma Mongoose

    To properly reboot, you first need to insert floppy. 😀

    1. Nono

      Or a thumb(drive).

    2. Yotomoe

      This is the modern times. We don’t need to insert a floppy. You should get an external HARDdrive and make sure you have enough RAM.

    3. John

      I find it works better with a hard dick. Disk! I meant “disk”.

      1. -Sentinel-

        Make sure you have protection, or you might pass her a virus. (Okay, this one’s not really a pun.)

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Wear a Trojan to prevent catching a trojan.

        2. neeks

          I never understood why Trojan went with that name as their brand, I mean Trojans are best known for the wooden horse incident and that doesn’t instill the greatest confidence in me that sperm won’t, you know, infiltrate.

        3. Jen Aside

          they mean the dick getting in the hole

          I GUESS

        4. neeks

          Yeah, it’s just the Trojans were inside the horse and then they weren’t and I guess I’m associating the condom as representing the horse, thus my cognitive dissonance

          Not to be confused with cocknitive dissonance, which Danny has been experiencing today.

        5. JetstreamGW

          But the Trojans weren’t in the horse. The Greeks were. The Trojans were the ones being killed.

        6. neeks

          Good thing I’m not a history teacher, then.

        7. TheZachariah

          Right, so Trojan would mean…your sperm will be able to ambush and mercilessly slaughter this condom?

        8. Jen Aside

          Nono, the sperm hide in the condom awaiting the perfect time to bust out once the condom gets lost inside…

          eew

        9. Deanatay

          Really, I think Trojan started producing condoms under that name before the name ‘trojan horse’ was applied to malicious data packets.

          I agree, though, ‘Trojan’ is a silly name for something that’s supposed to protect against invasion.

      2. JWLM

        Practice safe sectors!

      3. Justin

        She wants the D:\

        1. TJ Baltimore

          I originally interpreted D:\ as an emoticon, and it worked equally well!

    4. Ancestral Hamster

      We need to reboot from a cassette tape. CLOAD [Enter]

    5. tinfoil theory

      The operator’s left hand quivered as she gingerly unlatched the catch to the diskette reader. Uncontrollably, she reached down, guiding the sharply pointed diskette into the deep, dark slot. The floppy diskette nearly folded under the repeated thrusts of her hand, until finally she could control it no longer, her right hand instinctively taking an option
      zero. And then it all came at once, thousands upon thousands of data bits flowing from diskette to disk in a torrent of torrid transfer, as the helpless legs of the 32 strained to remain on the floor.

      1. Nogre

        I don’t know whether this is amazing or horrifying. Probably amazing. Brilliant either way.

        1. TheSuicidalGiraffe

          Hmm…

          While I’ve always been a fan of explicit novels, my god sir if you haven’t made me somehow aroused by a disk drive.. imagine what else you could get away with…

          THE HYBRIDS WOULD BE NIGHTMARISH AT BEST!!!

      2. Kryss LaBryn

        OMG You win forever. XD

  6. MrSirk

    Get it Danny. Get it.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      He is so going to get it.

      1. Yotomoe

        He’s gonna get it all right. *Holding a bat*.

        1. timemonkey

          Have you transformed into Sarah?

        2. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

          I think you mean Susan.

        3. Plasma Mongoose

          Sasan uses hammers, Sarah uses bats.

        4. neeks

          Or couches, depending on the Sarah.

        5. Plasma Mongoose

          But of cause.

        6. Shadow12000

          She did summon a hammer early on.

        7. Opus the Poet

          I think he means Medusa.

  7. Hoboturtle

    YES! But no … but YES, but no…..

  8. Emperor Kiva

    Wow……..um………ah fuck it, she’ll find out sometime.

    1. Yotomoe

      So will he.

  9. LuminoZero

    Reasserting Heterosexuality indeed.

    1. newllend

      ASK AND YOU SHALL RECEIVE !

      1. Bill M.

        SEEK AND YOU SHALL FIND!

    2. Plasma Mongoose

      If danny finds himself lusting after other guys besides Ethan, then he will have to admit to being at least bi.

      1. Slinx

        Danny doesn’t have to admit to anything. It’s Danny.

    3. A Dude

      Bruh bisexuality is a thing.

  10. maxyai

    The new and improved Amazi-girl is awesome. She’s like Batman without all the depressing angst.

    1. JessWitt

      Shh, you’ll jinx it.

    2. Doctor_Who

      I love that she’s using the voice, even to seduce her boyfriend.

      1. JessWitt

        Yeah, it’s cracking me up. Using that voice for sexy sweet nothings? Oh my.

        1. LiaHansen

          “I will tear you apart”

        2. Jen Aside

          It worked for Dr. Girlfriend?

        3. JustCheetoDust

          Considering the Monarch can’t get enough of it…

        4. Plasma Mongoose

          Deeper… go deeper.

        5. nothri

          Indeed. And I’m glad this situation JessWitt up. Because if it cannot crack out of its shell, the chick will die without truly being born. Also, “Go deeper” sounds like the perfect catch phrase for basically anyone who ever took a drive with Ends of the World. If you know what I’m saying.

        6. nothri

          …..fucked it up. Ahem. “And I am glad this situation is cracking JessWitt up.” Stupid non-editable comments….

        7. Plasma Mongoose

          If they ever remake Utena, I hope it will be more consistant than Sailor Moon Crystal seems to be.

      2. Jackson

        Happy words sound so weird in Amazi-blue.

      3. Lanval

        I AM THE GIRLFRIEND YOU NEED, EVEN IF I AM NOT THE GIRL YOU DESERVE.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          At least until the next movie.

        2. Jinxed44

          Lanval, Yes.
          Just yes.

      4. Plasma Mongoose

        Cos gravel-voices are teh sexay, don’t you know?

      5. JetstreamGW

        Swear to God!? SWEAR TO ME!

      6. nothri

        I’m picturing the Christian Bale batman when she talks. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! PLEASE STAY WITH ME TONIGHT!!!

    3. timemonkey

      Except all the angst is still there, she’s just ignoring it again.

    4. Yotomoe

      So basically, TTG Batman?

  11. neeks

    Dat unintentional first person plural though.

    1. JustCheetoDust

      Or royal “we.”

      1. neeks

        Halp I’m on a kindle and am immune to hypertext D:

        1. JustCheetoDust

          Alt text:
          …No, you’re probably right.

        2. neeks

          Thanks for the translation 🙂

        3. JustCheetoDust

          No problem, I understand your plight every time I check for comments–now that some of us have gone alt-text mad–at work using my phone.

        4. TheZachariah

          Yeah. Amber’s always had…issues. But that first person plural, and the fact that she corrects herself, that is a first in this strip. It’s a kind of dark plot point to introduce at this time.

        5. TheZachariah

          Reverse-side: Amber’s ‘we” just refers to her and Danny, but she corrects it to just she needed the reboot time?

        6. Slinx

          The imagined separation between Amber and Amazigirl was a coping mechanism for her for a while.

    2. AgentKeen

      … New theory: Amber has a third ‘compartment’ that doodled the dicks to give Amazi-Girl something to do and help with the reboot.

      (Ok, no, that’s crazy, I still think it was Mary).

      1. neeks

        In an unexpected twist, Willis reveals that Mary is amber’s third personality.

      2. neeks

        In an unexpected twist, Willis reveals that Mary is amber’s third personality.

        1. neeks

          Oh noes double post 🙁

        2. nothri

          What an unexpected twist!

        3. Jen Aside

          Yeah, I was expecting a TRIPLE post!

      3. Shadow12000

        …compartment? She has not one, but two hidden cabinets somewhere on her body?! Scandalous!

        1. Kryss LaBryn

          I bet I know where!

  12. dailybrad

    Happy Amber is fun to see, but I do feel a bit anxious.

    1. AgentKeen

      Happy Amber is fine.
      Happy Amazi-Girl is concerning.

      1. Winter

        No kidding.

        Especially considering the reasons she’s happy.

        Yeah, maybe everyone loves amazi-girl right now. And maybe even amber loves amazi-girl right now (now that she thinks she’s in the clear for having harassed sal and putting a man in the hospital). It may make amazi-girl happy for a while but, at the end of the day, amber is going to have to admit she isn’t amazi-girl. And none of that other crap can disguise the fact that amber doesn’t really love herself.

  13. Idon'tcarenomore

    Cheezh girl, he dumped you (the real you) when you were at your lowest point in your miserable life.
    Go somewhere else for huggies.

    1. Nono

      I’m not sure where you’re getting that from.

    2. dailybrad

      When did that even actually happen? He was not dating Amber at that point in time. In fact, he proved himself to be a very dedicated person in that he did not cheat on Amazi-Girl with Amber, and was trying to not cause such a problem. If anything, she should probably actually feel relieved. He also WAS there for her at her lowest, when she succumbed to her rage and beat the fuck out of Blaine, and helped her make her getaway.

    3. timemonkey

      While I don’t think he handled that situation quite right he also had no idea she was so vulnerable or what the hell was going on with her at all since she wouldn’t tell him.

    4. Yotomoe

      Yeah, he dumped the creepy stalker girl who was pretending to be his girlfriend when he already said he had a girlfriend. He also admitted he liked her. He distanced himself from her because he knew he liked her and he wanted to respect his relationship with Amazi-girl. Had they not been the same person, Amber undoubtedly would have just been kinda creepy.

    5. neeks

      It sucked for Amber but it was the right thing for Danny to do given the information he had. Besides, it might have given her the needed push to work on her hella issues and integrate instead of compartmentalize.

      That being said I wonder if Joe will figure out AG’s identity if Danny and Amber start dating (er, openly?), since he knows Danny’s involved with AG and is serially monogamous.

      1. Greenygal

        Even if Joe actually registered that Danny was dating Amazi-Girl–and he really didn’t seem to–Danny gave him the general impression they were broken up. He’ll just assume Danny moved on, as he predicted Danny would.

    6. Vim-Hogar

      Wow, look at all these people stepping up to defend Danny! That’s not something I ever expected to see, even if I do agree with all y’all.

      1. nothri

        We give Danny a lot of shit for sure, but when he does the right thing we remember it.

  14. Kernanator

    Well, at least this isn’t nearly as self-destructive as Billie and Ruth?

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Not yet my friend, not yet.

      1. Yotomoe

        Danny’s been known to self destruct in his pants in situations such as this.

        1. Shadow12000

          Dammit Yotomoe!

    2. Deanatay

      Has no one considered how bad this love triangle might be for Amber? Ethan damaged Amber quite a bit, when he discovered his true orientation on their prom night. If Danny should realize _he_’s gay, and breaks up with Amber – BECAUSE OF ETHAN – this could… well, Amber’s pretty broken, already, but this could make the damage irreparable.

      1. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

        But Danny is bi, not gay.

  15. Veles

    Oh man i can totally see where this is going. And i hope it’s not going to break her completely when it happens the second time.

  16. walden

    please willis.

    please.

    please just give the three or four danny-fans this.

    1. J-Debs

      How did you get out?!? GET BACK IN YOUR CAGE! *slams cage*

    2. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

      Oh, I’m sure there’s a lot more of us, but the comment section is pretty anti-Danny, so it’s hard to explain why things aren’t usually his fault.

  17. Yotomoe

    Hmm…what is better…sex with costume on, or off…I think a healthy middle would probably be best.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      She’s better off exposing her AmaziRack that’s for certain

    2. newllend

      What so just her nothing but the mask and cape on ?

      1. JustCheetoDust

        The cape will be removed for use with “hole in the sheet” sex.

      2. Evil Midnight Lurker

        Amazi-Kekko Kamen-Girl?

        1. Kiggy

          You win.

    3. John

      Just the mask and boots, perhaps? Pls slipshine

    4. John

      It’s already been determined that there are logistical difficulties with doing it with the costume on. Especially ’cause she’s got civvies on underneath.

      But she could leave the mask on.

    5. neeks

      Nothing but the mask and the voice.

      1. Deanatay

        And the cape.

        1. Slinx

          No capes!

    6. nothri

      Can’t speak for anybody else, but almost any combination of gloves and boots and nothing else is super hot to me. In this case keeping the mask would also be acceptable.

      1. Jen Aside

        Shoes and/or socks with sex is super-weird, almost gross to me for some reason.

        I totes dig the Toph/Sierra/Wreck-It Ralph barefoot thing

        1. Kryss LaBryn

          OMG I totally agree with you. I’ve seen one or two pornos where the guy’s humping away, naked except for his socks and it–yeah, I have no idea why but I find it really repulsive.

          Please dear god just take them off too.

  18. Brulnog

    BOW CHICCA HONK HONK!

    … Wait, that’s not right.

    1. Robin

      hONK hONK :o)

      1. JustCheetoDust

        You don’t teach that. That shit’s genetic.

      2. gwalla

        I see that you’re down with the clown

  19. newllend

    And he finally scores, to bad I think Walky and Dorothy already used up all the Amazi-condoms.

    1. Stephen Bierce

      She’s had time to restock ALL her utility belt pouches. 🙂

      1. newllend

        Where does she even get them ?

        1. JustCheetoDust

          She steals them from Cable?

        2. JustCheetoDust

          Fifteen minutes later, I realize that he wasn’t referring to the utility belt pouches.

        3. JustCheetoDust

          …and alt-text spelling fail.

        4. neeks

          Condoms aren’t really difficult to acquire, she probably just bought some, or got some from Planned Parenthood/the on campus student clinic.

        5. newllend

          I’m mean Condoms with her own brand.

        6. neeks

          I think those were just condoms with a blue A written on the wrappers with a sharpie or something.

        7. Kerry

          she just draws “A”s on them with blue marker

        8. steamweed

          She does have a sharpie. The only character I can recall who does have one. And someone drew with a sharpie on the girls’ dorm whiteboards. And Amazi-Girl is getting lots of warm fuzzies and accolades from her sleuthing.

          … I’m being paranoid, right? She wouldn’t be _that_ crazy, right? Willis wouldn’t do _that_, right?

        9. Catullus

          I think we’re safe. The Amazi-condoms were written on in blue Sharpie, and the whiteboard dingdongs were in black.

        10. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

          Well, she’s starting to develop a split personality owing to her heavy compartmentalization, so I wouldn’t really put it past her.

        11. Jen Aside

          Yeah, ain’t no way someone could own TWO permanent markers!

        12. fogel

          Well, she’s happy because AG is getting The Accolades, said so herself. So, sorry, you may be right.

        13. Nogre

          She seemed surprised and kinda annoyed by it, particularly the whole “Have any villains? Only the whiteboard ding dong bandit” thing, which was completely in private.

    2. Plasma Mongoose

      And if they don’t have any on hand, they can call for Roz, she’s well supplied.

      1. newllend

        What does she just have a bucket of condoms next to the box of strap on hats in her room?

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Are you saying that you don’t?

        2. newllend

          I have one of these two sets of items, having both at the same time would be weird….wait a minute.

    3. Yotomoe

      Only a fool only packs ONE pack of Amazi-condoms.

      1. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

        Only a fool steals only ONE of his dad’s condoms.

    4. LiamAldam

      NO WAIT, that’s it! She totally does have any.

  20. someguywithakatana

    Don’t fuck this up Danny.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Just FUCK, Danny.

        Just fuck danny! Somebody, please!

        1. Yotomoe

          Just Fuck! Anyone. I’m bored of waiting!

        2. Jen Aside

          You could always head over to Oglaf…?

        3. JustCheetoDust

          Like that comic’s always about fucking.

          Speaking of Oglaf, the Tumescent Necropolis from last week was great.

        4. gwalla

          The…the flail…O_O

        5. Jen Aside

          Didn’t say they DID, but Yoto said “BORED” so…

      2. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

        Just FUCK! Danny, you know you want to!

      3. Deanatay

        You ‘Just Fuck’ers are starting to sound like .

          Ethan’s Mom.

  21. Khaner

    Is it me, or has Amber’s face REALLY changed while wearing the mask?
    Also, why do I have the feeling that Amber will be in tears by the end of the day.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Tears are good as a form of lube.

      1. Kerry

        ouch

      2. Yotomoe

        Nothing’s as great as milk though.

        1. Kryss LaBryn

          Menstrual fluid’s fantastic.

    2. timemonkey

      Because she’s unstable and Willis loves drama?

  22. SUGauthor

    Looks like the upcoming sausage-fest Slipshine is a still a ways off.

    1. Yotomoe

      Until Amazi-girl gets her newest weapon! The Amazi-dong. For Sword fighting.

      1. Jen Aside

        or she powers up a la Sailor Senshi and switches genders in the process

  23. Rani

    Oh hooooooooo…

    I was about to ask how Amazi-Girl could pull off fucking Danny without getting unmasked, but then I remembered that Danny knows who she is.

    Between the last slipshine and this one, Amber’s multiverse is looking downright rosy.

    1. Rani

      …although the fact he insists on addressing her like he doesn’t know her identity is a clever touch, but it’s just a mite disturbing.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Amber is not there, there is only Amazi-Girl

        1. Yotomoe

          That’s not Amber! Amber has Blush Marks!!!

        2. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

          That is probably more true than you seem to be implying. Amber said that “WE needed to…” and then corrected herself.

          Das some messed-up shit and should be fixed right away.

        3. Nogre

          I don’t know. I think she means “We (Dan and her) needed some time. Er, I needed a reboot (and perhaps she shouldn’t be speaking for Dan too, so she’s only including herself).”

          Serious split personality stuff seems unlikely given just this one line.

        4. TheZachariah

          You know, I kind of had this thought, that he’s seeing Amazi-Girl for the first time in a while and all of his dialogue addresses her as such. It doesn’t really touch on her as Amber? I wonder how this interaction would have gone down if she had already changed out of her costume?

          …Also I’m still wondering how THIS interaction is going to go down. Prediction: not good. Danny will Dan it up by saying he’s really not sure right now and he needs to figure out some things first. She’ll be confused/hurt and wonder if there’s another woman (nope) and shit will kind of go downhill from there.

        5. Deanatay

          Not to mention that if she finds out she’s losing him because of her ex-boyfriend, she’s going to snap completely.

        6. JWLM

          Remember that when she saw Billie trashed in the hallway and had to decide if she was AmaziGirl for this interaction or Amber for it? She doesn’t have two different compartments, much as she might wish that she did. (In fact, that moment was an incredibly heathy one: she recognized that she was a single person and had to make a choice among alternatives.)

      2. Lanval

        I don’t think it’s necessarily insisting; He was caught off guard by the voice and probably hasn’t entirely over lapped the two in his head yet after thinking of them as different people for so long.

        Now, if she starts talking about personal problems or things go further and he keeps using “Amazigirl” [outside of maybe a flirt-y context in the later case], that would be where it started to get wierd.

        1. neeks

          Plus the door is still open and outing his girlfriend as the campus vigilante would be shitty even for Danny.

        2. neeks

          Not that I think he’s a generally shitty person, just oblivious at times.

  24. Rabid Rabbit

    If her mask slips during coitus, does that mean that Danny accidentally ends up fucking Amber? (Leave it to Danny to Danny up having immoral premarital relations with Amazi-Girl.)

    1. John

      No. Per the tags, she’s been Amber in full costume and Amazi-Girl in civilian clothes before. Check the cheeks. Amber has a blush, A-G doesn’t.

      1. John

        (Though that, come to think of it, might give Willis problems with depicting a turned-on Amazi-Girl.)

        1. David M Willis

          Turned-on-ness is rendered with hash lines, as demonstrated by Danny in the last panel.

        2. whatintheliteralfuck

          I thought the hash lines were just general emotional rush, while turned-on-ness was rendered through a change in status of the genitals.
          But that’s just the opinion of a pervert I guess.

        3. David M Willis

          The hashlines can also indicate embarrassment — it’s just an abnormal flushing of the cheeks, versus the indication of general status quo rosiness the everpresent ovals represent.

    2. Yotomoe

      Wait…Does that make it a Threesome?

      1. Rabid Rabbit

        Probably not, but I doubt that will stop you from drawing a threesome of Danny + AG + Amber, you filthy-minded personage you.

        1. Yotomoe

          No but my intense laziness/my need to entice people with my drawing abilities for cash I don’t deserve will stop me.

          Man, I am not looking for that Simpsons clip.

        4. JustCheetoDust

          Looking for that clip was an exercise in futility.

        5. Opus the Poet

          You should have looked harder. OOh, unintended double entendre pun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MX6Cs-A1Ayw

        6. JustCheetoDust

          You should have paid attention, because you referenced the wrong scene.

        7. neeks

          “I’m here to fuck moms and collect nickels….and I’m all out of nickels.”

          Suddenly I have a need to see Mike in an Ash costume saying that line for some reason.

        8. JustCheetoDust

          Ash? Yeah, no one would believe Roddy Piper saying that.

        9. neeks

          I might have gotten my references mixed up. It’s just such a Bruce Campbell line, you know?

          I really should rewatch “big trouble in little China”, though.

        10. JustCheetoDust

          I messed up the alt-text that would have made that comment sound less sarcastic. It referenced MST3K, in the Outlaw of Gor episode Crow says, “I have come to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and I’m all out of ass.” Incidentally that line is what I wanted to bring up all along.

        11. neeks

          Haha man I never know what anything’s “from” anymore.

        12. Kryss LaBryn

          Pretty sure it’s from Duke Nukem, but he might have been quoting Campbell. Actually, he probably was, lol.

    Watch yourself, Amber. You’re being too subtle for him.

    1. Jon P

      Seriously. This is the boy who did not realize you were Amber for like 2 weeks. Subtle hints to him may as well be charades to the blind.

    2. Philip Marlowe

      Judging by Danny’s face in the last panel, I think he has a pretty good idea what she means.

  27. Riku

    Amber looks adorable in this. Too bad the same thing’s gonna happen here that happened with Ethan

    1. LiaHansen

      “Amber… I’m not gay.”

      1. neeks

        That would make an amusing parallel to the ending of that Ethan/Danny strip.

        Danny: I’m not gay.
        Amber: me either!
        (And then they bang)

      2. nothri

        That might actually be a weird turn on for her…

    3. Yotomoe

      I dunno if that’s a true assumption.

    4. timemonkey

      But Danny likes ladyparts.

      1. neeks

        Danny likes parts, anyway.

    There’s no way this ends well.

      Yeah, that does seem to be going around a lot, doesn’t it? And it’s only Wednesday — just wait until the weekend comes along sometime next year! Things can only get worse from there.

  31. Just Here

    Amber’s still having some identity issues, methinks. Eh, but I like a curvy girl. Go for it Danno!

    1. Yotomoe

      Curves are where it’s at. Unfortunately Nicki Minaj has stolen and abused my favorite line from “Baby got Back” to the point where I can’t say what I want to say without people assuming I’m referring to her song…

      1. neeks

        Your anaconda don’t want none unless she got buns, hon?

        (I haven’t heard the Minaj song)

        (I love the Jonathan Coulton version of “baby got back”, personally)

        1. Yotomoe

          Yessir. Also My Jokebook don’t want none unless you got puns, hon/son.

        2. neeks

          (That’s “yes’m” actually, just fyi)

        3. Yotomoe

          (I just say Yessir regardless of who I’m talking to. It’s just become one word to me)

  32. HMRC4EVR

    Well, in Amber/AG’s defense she might have been thinking that both she and Danny needed the downtime to sort out their feelings, thus the word choice of ‘we’.

    It was then she realized the one who needed more time alone to sort things out was her, not Danny (she also realized she was speaking for him) and changed it to ‘I’ to show her admitting she was the one who needed the time.

    I’ll admit the odds are more in favor of that slip-up indicating the still-fractured state of her personas, but at least there is an option that’s not as dreadful

    1. Lanval

      I sort of assumed the same. I sort of read it as Amber saying to Danny; “We needed some time apart… Actually, I was sort of the one who Dannied this up, wasn’t I?”

      Though, I’d also be willing to lend credance to the split persona theory, if only because it is more interesting.

    2. Raptorman

      Or she is simply using the Royal we.

    3. Nogre

      This is what I expect she meant there.

  33. Resulli

    I sincerely hope this doesn’t end up the way it did last time. Hilarity would ensue but it would also drive Amber to madness.

    1. Rabid Rabbit

      Is that necessarily a bad thing? At least from the point of view of the reader, rather than the character?

    2. neeks

      I don’t know that it would, though. I mean, she would not be thrilled at first if two consecutive boyfriends had essentially left her for each other, but one can hope she’d get over it.

    3. Kerry

      jason, why are you talking to yourself

      1. neeks

        He’s not, we’re all speaking through his bowtie.

        1. HMRC4EVR

          Because, as we all know, Bowties were cool.

  34. newllend

    What’s Really funny is that at the same time Billie and Ruth are…

        Of cause?

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Look up scissoring on GIS if you dare.

        2. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

          Looking it up with safesearch on would come up with a lot of pun images of scissors scissoring, I’d imagine.

        3. tinfoil theory

          You imagine? Are you too scissy to try?

        4. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

          Not “imagine” so much as “hoped” – A safe search on scissoring brings up a bunch of images from South park of Mr. Garrison and other paper cutout women scissoring.

        5. Sageress

          I
          I know what it is
          I was making a pun

    … we?

      Both she and herself.

      1. J-Debs

        Oh I get it. Just expressing worry.

      2. gwalla

        I’m pretty sure she was referring to herself and Danny, and her correction is her acknowledging that it was really a unilateral decision on her part.

  38. Sageress

    Take the hint Danny

    1. tinfoil theory

      He is. See how he blushes. Her sports bra won’t be pinching her for long.

      1. Ailorn

        How often to sports bras pinch? I’ve found its the under wire ones are more likely to pinch/poke. (sorry for tangent 🙂 I agree with your main sentiment)

        1. Jen Aside

          Clothes in general tend to be restrictive, especially when needing to keep a certain volume under control… sports bras are like rubber suits–loose defeats the point

  39. Bill

    Born in the ’50s, came of age in the ’70s, and never had anyone – male or female – come on to me anywhere near as blatantly as this. Maybe they could tell I was a conscientious objector when it came to the Sexual Revolution.

  40. takashid

    She’s so cute in the third panel wow

  41. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

    I love the alt-text on this strip.

  42. brumagem

    Is it me or is Amber super short in this strip? Right now she’s a head smaller than Dan-o, but Dan-o is a little less than a head shorter than Ethan, which would make Ambr at least a head-and-a-half shorter than Ethan.

    Also, doesn’t Amazi-Girl wear giant boots?

    1. Jen Aside

      She’s breaking out the kneepads…….

    2. Greenygal

      I had to pause to do the same calculation, but no, Amber really is that much shorter than Ethan; she comes up to about his collarbone.

    3. timemonkey

      Amber is actually short and Ethan is actually really tall. Danny and Ethan actually discussed that recently.

  43. Raptorman

    I hope that she has some condoms in that utility belt.

    1. Opus the Poet

      I believe she has the non-crimefighting stuff in the cape, like her shoes.

  44. GoogerGeiger

    Slipshine Shipshine

  45. Ridureyu

    This is where Danny says “no, I can’t. I’m gay,” and then Amber has another psychotic breakdown.

    1. Kerry

      but danny’s bi, not gay

      1. Gadgeteer Smashwidget

        But Danny doesn’t know that. Yet.

        1. Kerry

          but he doesn’t think of himself as gay
          he thinks of himself as straight

  46. NF

    Danny is going to Dan this up. This is tailor-made for him to Dan it up, and with everything that happened the last few days I will have trouble holding it against him.

  47. synnerman

    Ethan or Superhero?

    SUPAH-HERO!

    1. Nogre

      Both! And then suddenly I’m imagining the three of them in a threesome with each dressed up as a super hero to start with. Amber as Amazi-girl, Ethan as Batman, and Danny as…hm…maybe Spiderman? That would be some truly super lovin’.

  48. Orangey

    I first assumed ‘we needed downtime’ was about her and Danny, but what if she meant her and Amber? Aaaaaa.

    1. nothri

      I’m gonna assume she meant her and Danny until proven otherwise.

  49. Lawzlo

    My prediction: they have sex, but during mid-coitus, Danny dans it up by calling out Ethan’s name.

    1. BalRog gets a "D"...and PASSES!!!

      No, Danny dans it up by calling out AMBER’S name. But at the same moment AG calls out Ethan’s name, so they call it even. Even though it’s not, really.

  50. Pyr05

    Baw chick-ca wow wow!

  51. nothri

    In response to the alt text:

    “Oh, well, heavens! Let’s just get rid of that nasty thing entirely then, shall we?”

  52. nothri

    Also, the cynic in me is unhappy to report that I am willing to bet that the topic of Sal will come up soon.

  53. APersonAmI

    That smile in the third panel… and how he reacts in the fourth one! And I love the way she gets closer to him in the fifth panel! I’m a bit worried for these two, I hope nothing happens now that they’ll regret later, but this page felt wonderful right now. I dunno how it will feel later, though.

    That said, while I like Danny, I have trouble sympathizing with where he is emotionally, that need to “reassert his heterosexuality”, like it was some all-important status thing he needed to prove to someone.

    Partly because, for most of my life, I never thought about if I was hetero, pan, homo, male, female, whatever. I was just me. Didn’t think of it in those terms. The first ever person I fell in love with was male, and the second female, about 2-3 years apart. I was surprised to fall in love with them, because I’d been close friends with them for over a year each before I felt any romantic interest. But I didn’t even consider their gender into it.

    Labels was something other people did, things that people said about me after I did things. I just didn’t think about it, myself.

    And so, the thing Danny is going through right now, and it is certainly something I’ve seen many others go through before him, is always odd to me. I just cannot grasp why you would not be with the people you want to be with, because it wouldn’t fit your current label. Just do what you want to do, be with the people you want to be with, and then when old labels don’t fit anymore, find a new one, if it is that important to you.

    Importance of happiness > importance of labels. Every. Time.

    1. Nogre

      A label isn’t just a word you use to describe yourself, though. It’s a lot more complicated than that and it can have very deep meaning. It represents expectations, both internal and external, and those can be very powerful and very important to you, even if they’re stupid expectations based in crap.

      They can even define your whole view of reality. I grew up in Utah and while I was aware of the word “gay,” it wasn’t… It wasn’t a thing. I felt like what that word described didn’t even exist on the same reality as me. It existed off somewhere else on another plane of existence entirely. I don’t think it really hit me until really late into high school what was going on in my head or in my pants and what that meant. Sure, this “sexual attraction thing” happened with males and not so much with females. But I didn’t have the words to describe or understand these feelings because “gay” wasn’t something compatible with “me.” For a long time, it felt as insane as considering myself a Jedi. Eventually, I figured it out, but it took a long time, and I probably would have been totally fucked without the internet.

      Oh, and my parents aren’t particularly religious and while I was exposed to Christianity, I wasn’t really indoctrinated. This was all just because of the culture around me.

      I certainly agree that people’s happiness is more important than labels. But these things have power over some of us whether we want them to or not, so we need to deal with them. Be glad that you don’t have to worry about them as much.

      1. APersonAmI

        Thanks for your reply! It felt earnest, to me. I enjoyed reading it.

        I guess part of my dissonance is that I very seldom consider the labels to be *me*… just a simplified approximation of one aspect of me. Also, being a person who does not generally find people sexually attractive, I have trouble seeing the difference between the sexualities hetero/homo/bi/pan, because it looks like the same basic desire, same basic way that desire is expressed, slightly different object of affection.

        But knowing what you are, while lacking the words to describing it, while there is a word that fits, but you cannot imagine being “you”… that, I can sympathize with. Because that’s basically me and polyamory. I knew that I didn’t feel jealousy in any significant capacity, I knew that I thought the reasoning behind what is a close friend and what is a person you love was arbitrary at best, but I didn’t connect the dots because I didn’t realize poly was something I could be.

        1. Nogre

          Well labels really are just simplified approximations. So are scientific theories, though. Our brains are rarely cut out for understanding anything in the universe with all its complexities, so we have to try to find a balance between correctness and simplicity to find an understanding that’s accurate enough while still being simple enough to actually use.

          When those simplified models of reality are applied to people, it gets even more complicated since then you have to consider how it affects people. There are few easy rules like “labels are good” or “labels are bad.”

          But what we can do is share experiences and try to empathize with others and build our understanding. So I’ve appreciated your comments as well.

  54. TheZachariah

    Hoooooooooooooooo boy…

  55. lightsabermario

    Things are looking awesome for Danny and Amber. Unfortunately, we are nowhere near the end of this comic, so writing convention says that the other shoe is just about to drop.

    My guess? In case you didn’t see it yesterday: PLOT TWIST! Not only is Danny bi now, he’s also the whiteboard ding-dong bandit! He was brainwashed by Blaine into defacing the whiteboards, and during sexytimes, Amazi-girl discovers his sharpie! Heartbroken, Amazi-girl is forced to break up with Danny and turn him in. Amazi-girl is further heartbroken when Danny replaces her affection with Ethan’s, and it appears that yet another lover of hers is actually gay. Danny being bi was all a part of Blaine’s cunning plan. BLAINE HAS THE LAST LAUGH!!

    1. TheZachariah

      Discovering the marker mid-coitus would be a Willis-worthy plot twist. The rest doesn’t quite fit. Pretty sure Danny being bi could not have been “part of Blaine’s cunning plan”, nor would it have made any difference in the universe if it was.

    Guys, this is not how bisexuality works. Danny just realized that he is attracted to at least one dude, not that he is deeply in love with Ethan. There will be no awkward nameshouting.

    1. ninja_jesus

      Very much agreed. People are getting a bit too carried away with the idea, but I think it’s all in good fun. Still, it’s a relevant thing to point out.

      1. Kerry

        people are just trying to think of stuff that will get in the way of danny/amber sexytimes, because this is david willis comic we’re reading
        since the most dramatic thing to happen lately (other than billie/ruth) is danny becoming cognizant of his attraction to dudes, that’s what people are automatically latching onto

  57. ninja_jesus

    Whelp, we all know what’s coming. He’s going to stop her because he’s having difficulty with his sexual identity, and she’s going to be really upset and run away and he’s going to be so confused until he realizes “oh, this is what happened to her before”.

    Unless she DIDN’T tell him. Then ohhhhhh boy, will he be completely confused.

    1. KingoHrts

      Danny confused? That is a regular occurrence. Danny completely confused? Must be Wednesday.

    2. Jen Aside

      Danny: “I… don’t think we should do sexeng.”
      Amazi-Girl: “…”

      *AEGIS REFLECTOR* ‎(ﾉಥ益ಥ)ﾉ ︵︵┻━┻

    3. Keeveet

      She can’t have told him, since Danny assumed Ethan is straight, right? But I could totally see him turning her down now because it feels weird to fool around right after he’s started crushing on her ex. Or not! We’ll see!

      I definitely see drama down the line, either because something happens between Danny and Ethan or because Amber finds out Danny’s bi and has a crush on a dude, because it’s such a close repeat of what happened with her first boyfriend. Poor Amber.

      I’m looking forward to DANNY finding out that Danny is bi!

      1. Gamaran Sepudomyn

        She did say that she has had to deal with boyfriends turning out to be gay, she just didn’t mention who that was.

  58. Thomas

    Amber’s belt buckle has gone missing in panel 5. Is this intentional.

    1. Kerry

      it’s still there, it’s just pressed into danny’s legs

  59. Soap

    PLEASE TELL ME HE WONT TURN HER DOWN CAUSE HE’S BECOME GAY PLEASE PLEASE Pleeeeeeaaasssse

    1. Kerry

      he’s bi and he wants to “reassert his heterosexuality”, so no, I doubt it

    2. JWLM

      If he had been gay, then he didn’t ‘become’ gay. (When did you become straight?) Word of Willis has Danny as bi, but just recognizing it in himself. That’s very different from ‘becoming’ bi.

  60. Kiggy

    Come on, Danny. MAN UP!

  61. Malchus

    This feels like a Sword of Damocles about to fall situation.

    And, no, that wasn’t a penis joke.

    Originally.

    1. Nochi

      Sword of Dannocles

  62. Iggzy

    Everything is coming up Danny… or at least getting a rise out of him

  63. Nogre

    So much ship whiplash!!!

    I think I’m just going to have to ship some kind of open relationship/polyamory because A. that would be cool representation and B. that would allow both of these ships and C. having to decide whether I’m happy with either monogamous result is going to drive me crazy!

    1. Opus the Poet

      I am a firm believer that we need more polyamory, because all it means is love and there ain’t enough love in this world baby! Love everyone, bone the ones that make you (and them) happy. Pet the doggy! (not a sex joke, seriously, give that doggy a friendly noogie).

      1. Nogre

        I’m all for more love, but I have a mild phobia of dogs, so I’ll leave that petting to you. ;P

    2. ninja_jesus

      I think you mean… shiplash. 😀

  64. Sigurther

    I HEARTILY APPROVE OF THIS TURN OF EVENTS. Hell, let’s get Ethan in there for a threesome and put it on Slipshine. I’d pay for that.

  65. zmm

    Haha. I hope Ethan don’t freak. It’d be nice to have something relativly not horrible for a bit.. Hopefully the thing with her father was her moment before finding relative happy like in shortpacked.

  66. Marc in MN

    I’m trying to imagine these lines in a gravelly Christian Bale as Batman voice and it just isn’t working. =P

    1. Jen Aside

      Try Dr. Girlfriend?

  67. Grungehamster

    Prediction: It’s fair to say we’ve had no indication Amber has had any healthy sex (we have no idea how far things progressed between her and Ethan on prom night, and while I personally think that Blaine’s abuse of his daughter was entirely of a non-sexual nature especially given Willis’ rejection of “Rape as Backstory” I’m sure there are people with headcanon that includes that element). If things do get hot and heavy, I’m not exactly sure sex will meet her idealized expectations since we know she’s not in the most balanced of mental states. Add to it the chance that Danny (while at least having experience) could Dan this all up, and I can see sexual intimacy making her issues worse, not better, which in turn could make Danny more confused about his sexuality and undermine Amber’s new-found self-confidence without resorting to the usual farcical “oops he moaned Ethan’s name” your average webcomic would do.

  68. Sam

    Man, suddenly everyone wants Danny. Was he given one of those “makeovers”?

    1. timemonkey

      ‘s always wanted Danny, it’s been one of the biggest mysteries of the universe why he’s so irresistible.

    2. Nogre

      Personally, I often find myself more attracted to people after finding out they’re androsexual (attracted to men or males). Oh, hey! You might actually reciprocate? That’s hot!

  69. motorfirebox

    Is anyone else cracking up, imagining Bat-Bale saying “Today I feel wonderful” in his Bat-growl?

  70. Blal

    Prediction: the Dannening

  71. Evan

    Calling “Actually I think I like dudes,” round 2.

    1. Sam

      He likes both dudes and duddettes.

      1. Sam

        Although he doesnt completely understand it yet.

    2. Winter

      Seconded.

      I don’t think Danny, professional romantic, would want his first time with Amber to be some desperate attempt to reaffirm his straightness when he thinks he might be gay. He might also not want his first time with Amber to be directly after he thought they had broken up, when they still haven’t talked about all the shit that’s gone on.

      Or maybe that’s just my hopes for them. But, then, Danny turned Billie away for fewer good reasons.

  72. Professor Fate

    The Dan-child will botch this golden opportunity as he does everything else. The guy’s a walking disaster no matter what the occasion.

  73. Toes14

    Will Danny & Amber take the #NoCondomChallenge started by Rayne Summers?

    1. Opus the Poet

      Naw, Amazi-Girl it totes into safe sex.

    2. FinalFire64

      Do you not remember the amazi-condoms?

  74. heyitsthatoneguy

    And Amazigirl enters her Adam West era. Prepare the shark repellent.

  75. Grace

    Does Danny know that Amber is Amazi-Girl? Didn’t she tell him during the parents day? Am I crazy. Im sorry if this is a dumb question, Im just confused if Danny knows, why is he treating them as two people again?

    1. Nogre

      Yes. He found out in the aftermath of the Blaine fight.

    2. Kerry

      how is he treating them as two people?
      like, why would he say amber’s name when he sees amazi-girl, especially since I’m pretty sure the door is wide open?

      1. Grace

        Aaaah. Well that makes sense Kerry. I don’t know, I was just making sure. Maybe its just if I was put in that situation, I would be getting the names mixed up myself XD The next strip cleared it up for me as well. Thank you!

  76. Trolldrool

    Are anyone else expecting him to turn her down in the next comic? Not because he’s confused about Ethan, but because he’s not convinced she’s gotten better and gets afraid he’d be taking advantage of her?

    I know the situation isn’t the same as it was with Billie, for one he didn’t know her, but I’m not sure Danny has developed much from back then.

  77. Raznaak

    Either ways, Danny fucks it up 😛

  78. JWLM

    You can leave your mask on?

  79. Darwin

    In the latest strips, Willis seems to be knocking it out of the park with facial expressions.

  80. Slinx

    I don’t know how to feel about Danny’s mental state right now.

  81. MrBurrows

    So, am I the only one here who’s hoping for at least ONE polyamorous relationship?

    1. ninja_jesus

      No, but I’m not sure it can happen between any of our main cast of characters yet.

  82. elliethegreat9

    I think maybe they’ll be getting their freak on and he’ll say Ethan’s name and she’ll flashback to when she was trying to lose her virginity with Ethan and he came out, like when she saw Sal and remembered the gas station incident

    1. Slinx

      Why would Ethan shout out his own name during almost-sex? (I know he wouldn’t have needed to for flashbacks to happen, but :P) But yes, that would be super awkward and bad.

  83. Varangian

    oh for fuck’s sake, one of the few honestly happy moments this comic’s displayed lately and everyone’s clamoring in increasingly wrongheaded ways for it to implode and fuck up

    1. Jen Aside

      happy is boring

      😉

    2. timemonkey

      They haven’t dealt with any of their issues, glossing over them isn’t going to help and some people just don’t like the pairing to begin with.

      1. Sam

        Agreedo. This isnt really “happy”.

      2. oldFart

        It doesn’t feel right at all. Amber/AG is in some weird temporary superficial euphoria or something…can’t believe she is really OK. On top of that Danny just got turned on by a guy and wants evidence of straightness, so that weirds it up more. I want them to be happy but this looks like something that might go terribly wrong.

        1. Kerry

          okay, maybe this is why I feel so uncomfortable about it?
          I like danny/amber, and I love amber in general, but something feels off about this whole thing

        2. JWLM

          I think that Danny’s just a bit wary about this, too. Look at his body language in the fifth panel — is he turned on or embarrassed and a little uncomfortable?

  84. Timni

    GET IT SHAWTY

  85. Charles Fee

    If THIS doesn’t get a slipshine I will feel personally insulted.
    I’ve had a weird week.

  86. halcyon1234

    Reboot? NOOO! Don’t restart the comic!

  87. Red Comet

    I don’t like Amazi-girl and I hope that Amber finds a way to accept help from her friends or a therapist.

  88. Bibulb

    It just hit me how at odds the implied-kinda-Christian-Bale-Batmany voice and Amber/Amazi-Girl’s posture and friendly speaking tone are in the first panel? I’m imagining it coming out as a kind of growled squeak.

    1. Rani

      I KNOW RIGHT?

  89. DarkoNeko

    ooh boy, that girl can’t catch a break, can she ? 😐
