  1. VizardJeffhog

    Huh… Guess the problem solved itself!

    1. Tunaro

      Not completely. Faz is still there.

      1. Yotomoe

        No problem here.

      2. Plasma Mongoose

        That’s what garbage disposals is for. >:)

        1. Aizat

          I would’ve gone with a flaming barrel but that works too, I guess.

        2. Lawzlo

          Not a wood-chipper? It seemed to work okay in ‘Fargo’.

        3. Aizat

          Or a salami slicer works too.

        4. Plasma Mongoose

          The giant composter as featured in the 4th Doctor Who story ‘The Seeds of Doom’ would work even better.

        5. Kiggy

          But then Blaine would have become part of a giant meat- eating crinoid (sp)

        6. Plasma Mongoose

          If by part of you mean part of its digestive system than you might be right.

        7. Neospector

          We could always feed him to the Star Whale in The Beast Below, or maybe the Macra from Gridlock?

      3. Led

        Aw I actually feel sorry for him somehow… Blaine just leaves him ;O

        1. Badeyes

          What if that was Blaine’s whole purpose! His asshattery was just a ploy to leave Faz and be free. Years of doucheness just to have this opportunity to be rid of the life suck that is Faz.
          Wow, what a horrible plan. Dude is an idiot as well as an uberdick.

        2. Josh

          Can’t blame him though!

      4. Phillip Wilde

        Asma don’t take no shit.

    2. thecanvashat

      That’s helpful!

    3. Nick

      Except that Amber isn’t on campus anymore…

  2. Gottawonder

    Finally.

  3. thecanvashat

    She needs that room to live.

  4. utahrapter3

    No butt whooping for Blaine? 🙁

    1. Yotomoe

      He’ll get it eventually!

      1. Aizat

        Yeah, by an angry mob waiting outside with ropes and pitchforks.

    2. Plasma Mongoose

      He’ll get his but we won’t likely get to see it for a few years yet.

  5. Jackson

    Do we get to meet Asma’s parents?

    1. The Candyman

      I don’t think she’s a freshman.

      1. Doctor_Who

        Yeah, probably not if she works the desk.

        I did that every year in college from sophomore on. You needed at least one year of living in the dorms to get hired.

        Pretty idyllic job, actually. Pay sucked, but I’d just sit there all night buzzing the drunks in and doing my homework. Maybe get a pizza and watch movies on my laptop. As long as I had no classes until afternoon, 11-7 shifts were great.

        1. Paul

          For some reason, I’ve always had the impression that Asma was a professional (or graduate) working for the hall, not an undergraduate. Not sure why that is.

        2. tahrey

          My own university had paid, adult (as in, post-21 age range) staff running security and reception in the residential halls and main buildings. The most that the sophomore and third-year students did was “guardian angel” type work (sort of like RAs but less authoritarian, more big-sibling, including running nights out at the local bars* etc and making sure everyone got home ok). I had that gig for a couple months, til it turned out all my freshers were perfectly capable of handling themselves solo.

          * UK based, thus, they were legally good to go get hammered from day one.

        3. Pat

          At mine the desk was run by security guards at night but student employees during the day.

        4. Bill

          We called ’em “head residents” in my university days.  They were adults, had an apartment in the dorms so were there most all the time, and were directly employed by the University.

        5. James

          That what we do as hotel night auditor.

          ( pay is better though)

    2. eyss

      golly i hope so

  6. Paul

    Keepin’ it smooth, Billie.

  7. Jesse

    Listening to Faz can kill brain cells.

    1. Aizat

      But punching Faz is calming…

      1. mechaqua

        But ineffective.

        1. Aizat

          Well, they haven’t legalized killing assholes yet..or any violent act against assholes.

        2. Josh

          You’re clearly watching the wrong porn!

        3. Yotomoe

          He’s like one of those inflateable punching bags that bounces back up.

        4. Squall

          Weebles wobble but they’re not called Blaine.

  8. John

    So Ruth has accurately estimated Billie’s competence level.

    1. Jack Finch

      Ruth might have sent Billie along as a secondary confirmation tag of Blaine’s identity, without meaning anything about her general competence.

    2. Jack Finch

      Or did you mean that positively? As in Ruth knew Billie would follow through on what she told her.

      1. John

        Ruth nailed the exact extent to which Billie would successfully carry out her mission. Ruth was sufficiently confident that Billie would tail Blaine without losing him to include her as part of his identification, but also confident that she wouldn’t figure out what to do with him herself.

        1. Jack Finch

          Yeah. There seemed to be a air of increased trust between them when they confronted Blaine.

  9. Darth

    AM I THE ONLY ONE CONCERNED ABOUT DINA LOSING THERAPOD FACTS?

    1. Tunaro

      Since that includes stuff about T-Rex’s, no. No you’re not.

    2. TJ Baltimore

      It is indeed a great tragedy. I would be distraught if my therapod facts lost cranial space.

      1. Bill M.

        That reply with that gravatar… so apropos.

    3. xKiv

      Faz needs to get eaten by a theropod. OR transformed into a theropod. Or get married to a theropod.

      1. Leorale

        Or all three, but in reverse order.

  10. Cattleprod

    So is Faz getting abandoned there, hiding in the ducts and causing shenanigans?

    1. timemonkey

      He will continue watching Dina from every available vent. She won’t see him, but she’ll feel his eyes all over her body, touching her in places that aren’t even real because it’s Faz and he probably doesn’t understand female anatomy.

      1. Ragnal

        You scare me.

        1. timemonkey

          This pleases me.

      2. |Agent

        Eww. That’s so creepy and totally Faz.

      3. Yotomoe

        I have touched her thorax with my mind.

        1. Aizat

          That statement just made my jimmies rustled….whatever that means.

        2. John

          The Great Faz would like someday to rustle a female’s jimmies. He is in possession of a PDF that illustrates how to locate them.

      4. Aizat

        Where’s that brain bleach?

        1. timemonkey

          In Faz’s pants.

    2. Lavaticmay

      I think the jokes Willis was going for is Asma asked if he needed anything retrieved before he left, and he was like ‘no let me leave here’ only to jump cut to him forgetting Faz

      1. Badeyes

        Soo, does Lavaticmay mean ‘stater of obvious’?

    3. Kernanator

      Faz will have to eat rats to survive.

      1. Kiggy

        Even rsts would run awy from the Faz.

        1. Kiggy

          Rats >_<

        2. Hoboturtle

          I bet rsts would run away from Faz too if he ever ran into one.

  11. Wonder Wig

    W-why am I beginning to ship that?

    1. Paul

      I’m not sure, but it’s a possible indicator that you are an awful, terrible person and should be quarantined immediately.

    2. Jesse

      You need some serious therapy.

    3. Aizat

      BRAIN BLEACH! Get me a brain bleach.

    4. Yotomoe

      I’VE BEEN SHIPPING IT FROM DAY ONE.

      1. AgentKeen

        Requesting orbital bombardment of that ship! Quick, before it can sail!

        1. Kiggy

          Nuke it from orbit. Only then we can be sure.

          (Or whatever that line from Aliens go)

      2. The Candyman

        He really has, though. I’m pretty sure he was shipping it before Faz even showed up.

      3. ocbrad1

        Dina and Faz, or the brain bleach?

    5. John

      I totally ship them.

      And by “ship”, I mean, “hope Dina disembowels Faz with the hooked claw on her foot”.

      1. Leorale

        I don’t think that word means what you think it means.

  12. Mattyos

    OH MY GOD I WAS RIGHT!!

  13. Jenny Creed

    Unexpected surge of sympathy for Faz, who’s apparently nothing but a personal effect to Blaine. And a leave-behindable sort of personal effect at that.

    1. Joel Rice

      Agreed. Faz is irritating but it breaks my heart that there isn’t a single person in the world who cares for him. Everyone should have that.

      1. timemonkey

        I’m sure there’s someone out there for Faz. Possibly a frighteningly similar person. Possibly female.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          I’m not certain Wen will that happen in DoA.

        2. timemonkey

          If I wish hard enough and Willis remains Willis it will one day be true.

        3. Dicrel Seijin

          I saw what you did there.

          And yeah, Wen probably will pop out when we least expect it. Oh god, I just thought about Faz and Wen having sex in the dorm. I need brain bleach stat.

        4. Kiggy

          Just wait til Wilis takes us back to Joe’s Dad and Amber’s Mom, ahem, interacting
          >:D

        5. Narf

          It’s like timemonkey tried to allude to something that might or might not be within the purview of Dumbing of Age readers, without directly mentioning it so as not to break Willis’s rule about talking about his other continuities – and did so quite elegantly, no less!

          And then… well, yeah. You.

      2. Badeyes

        There is a group home for all the people that cared for Faz and suffered nearly irreparable emotional and cognitive damage as a result.
        There is an bill in the works requiring a warning label on Faz.

    2. Alex Stritar

      I was actually wondering if his outburst at Amber effected him at all. Since it didn’t, should we assume he’s used to his dad being like that? (We are seriously going to make Faz a woobie in this universe, arnt we?)

      1. Totz the Plaid

        Well, as stupid as he is, and as obnoxious as he was in his earlier DoA strip appearances, the final panel today is hilarious.

        Also, I feel sorry for anyone who’s forced to deal with Blaine at all, much less on a daily basis.

        1. AJBulldis

          My thoughts are “talking to girl who isn’t a relative and therefore okay to mack on” is far more important to Faz than coming to grips with his angry step father and the fact that his step sister just shoryuken’d him. Priorities.

        2. Kernanator

          It is more important due to its rarity.

  14. it's a trap

    run dina. run as fast as you can. preserve the precious facts for they are more valuable than what faz currently is spouting.

    1. Totz the Plaid

      More valuable? Yes.

      As funny? Arguably not.

  15. Aizat

    Dina, repeated thrusting of your fist to the face of Faz is not just welcomed..they’re allowed.

    1. Yotomoe

      Faz would only like it because a girl is touching him.

      1. Aizat

        A gloved fist then.

        1. AgentKeen

          Faz knows that gloves are necessary for love, for Faz read it in on the internet. Thus, Faz welcomes your gloved touch.

        2. Aizat

          Oh my god, Faz is like an unholy fusion of Ryo Saeba and Brock…just without all the good parts that made both of them likeable.

  16. Vince

    Please…no more Faz here. Keep him locked in SP!

    1. someguywithakatana

      Don’t listen. Never listen. He gets left here and roams around the campus forever!

      1. Yotomoe

        And he becomes the main character.

        1. Keroshino

          I wouldn’t mind this…uwe..he..he!

    2. mechaqua

      Faz is like a virus once he is one comic he will spread to all the walkyverse!

      1. The Candyman

        He’s going to start showing up in newspaper comics after conquering the web comic world.

        1. Leorale

          Faz hates Mondays.

        2. Jenny Creed

          And then Neo will have to fight him until they both die to keep the fictional world from collapsing under infinite Faz.

    3. Aizat

      Keep him locked in the BLAGOLE.

  17. Joel Rice

    I know I’m going to be absolutely alone in what I’m about to say but I think Faz and Dina would make an interesting couple. However that may only be because I’m fond of the cliche romantic circumstance where a boy manages to get a disinterested girl to like him in the end.

    1. Wensleydale

      Don’t worry, Mr. Rice. I also ship Dina and Faz.

      Faz had a very persuasive chart as to why he needs support.

      1. Yotomoe

        I ship them so hard you don’t even know.

        1. AJBulldis

          I actually kind of like the idea of Dina warming up to him, but their relationship is nothing but strange and hilarious and is never taken seriously.

          Plus he’s stranded here now so he’s already moving in.

  18. Ragnal

    BLAINE, NOOOOO!

    TAKE HIM WITH YOOOOOOOOU! *Tosses Faz*

    1. Paul

      I GIVE HIM TO YOU

  19. Jack Finch

    I am conflicted. Dina needs to make room for more than therapod facts, but not like this. Not. Like. This.

    1. Ragnal

      NOT LIKE THIIIS!

    2. Yotomoe

      But she needs to know where Faz’s muscles WOULD be. He is teaching her human biology, something Dina knows very little about! HE COMPLETES HER.

  20. mechaqua

    Faz personally affects everything around him in a negative way. As an effect I suppose nausea counts.

  21. Rani

    Ruth is a magnificent bastard. Way to tag and bag him, Ruthless.

  22. Juliecat

    Jennifer Billingsworth: Noted Alcoholic sounds like a great idea for a spinoff series

    1. Yotomoe

      That’s basically this comic.

    2. Bloody_Jerk

      I would donate my house for that spinoff.
      On the other Side, I don’t own a house, so I will be more than satisfied with DoA for the moment.

  23. Jack Finch

    Also, Billie. Your Three D aspects are some of your best features. Just sayin’.

    1. Ragnal

      I see two D’s. Where’s the third?

      GNIGHT EVERYBODY! *Vaudeville dances offstage*

      1. Aizat

        Drinks, of course.

      2. timemonkey

        Dat ass.

        1. Aizat

          Dat’s 3Ds and an A.

      3. Jack Finch

        I bow to you sir.

      4. Yotomoe

        *Animaniacs end theme*

    2. The Candyman

      Billie is an alien?

  24. The Candyman

    So I guess this arc ends with Faz getting left behind at the university. It can only go downhill from there, I’m sure.

    1. Yotomoe

      By this graph you can see that it will go UPHILL.

      1. Bloody_Jerk

        Never say that, it almost sounds like an challenge. When we are getting to the minus value’s, people are getting killed by cancer.

        1. The Candyman

          The comic will eventually be called Dumbing Cancer Cancer.

      2. Thad guy

        The graph represents UPNESS.

  25. someguywithakatana

    Well that was a little anticlimactic…

    1. Paul

      Despite what seems to be the common consensus, I can’t help but think that this isn’t really over. Just a lull in the activity.

  26. Rob London

    I hate to be Dina here, but it’s “theropods”.

  27. LiamAldam

    There has been a buildup to this since panel 3.

    1. LiamAldam

      And by “this” I mean the noted alcoholic joke and by “panel” I mean strip.

  28. Neek

    THERAPOD FACTS: The Herrerasauridae are an early group represented by Herrerasaurus, which was discovered in a wonderful middle-late Triassic period fossil locality (the famous Ischigualasto Formation) in Argentina in the 1970s. Another herrerasaur is Staurikosaurus, which has been known since the 1960s from remains found in Brazil. More recently (in 1993), another herrerasaur-like fossil was found in the same general area and named Eoraptor, or “dawn thief.” It appears to be closely related to the herrerasaurs, but smaller in size and slightly older. Both Eoraptor and the herrerasaurs seem to have been small to medium-sized carnivores. These curious animals have some basic theropod characteristics, but lack others; in fact, they lack some dinosaurian characteristics as well. The Herrerasauridae and Eoraptor may be the earliest group of theropods, or it is quite possible that they are not even theropods at all, but rather non-dinosaurs (dinosauromorphs) closely related to the ancestor of dinosaurs. The fact is, we don’t know for sure. Experts in dinosaur systematics are currently embroiled in a controversy over the exact relationships of the Herrerasauridae to theropods and other dinosaurs.

    (copied from the first link to which Google sent me)

    1. Jack Finch

      That’s some first class nerdin’ there Neek. Lovin’ it.

      1. Yotomoe

        MORE LIKE GEEK!

        1. The Candyman

          BUUUUUUUUUUURRRRNN!!

        2. Mr Mercury

          He’s not even nerding properly, he just copypasta’d

        3. Jack Finch

          My taxonomic classification went as follows;
          Research and quote the source = nerd.
          Knowing it by heart already (like Dina) = geek.

          I am willing to admit error though. Am I wrong?

        4. The Candyman

          I’ve always thought that “need” referred to someone with an extreme knowledge of and fascination with various real life subjects (dinosaurs, computer technology, advanced mathematics etc.), while “geek” referred to that same knowledge and fascination applied to fictional narratives (Star Trek, Star Wars, Middle Earth etc.)

          That’s just my definition, though.

        5. Leorale

          I’ve heard it differentiated like: nerds have no social skills, but geeks have enough social skills to get along swimmingly with other geeks (and/or argue endlessly with other geeks).

        6. Narf

          I’ve heard that they’re all ridiculous arbitrary labels whose meanings vary by geographic region, or even by social group within a specific region!

          O HAY HOW BOUT THAT

        7. L.K. Croctuta

          This, plus geek is cool, nerd is an insult. After all, it’s geek cred, not nerd cred.

        8. Reepicheep-chan

          I figure geeks are like the sorcerers to nerds’ wizards.

        9. Jack Finch

          I always think of geeks as having unembarrased over-the top enthusiams. Buddy from The Incredibles is a geek. Mark Zuckerberg is a nerd.

  29. Wensleydale

    On the one hand, I applaud Willis for not ending this in a violent manner. On the other hand, I feel kind of cockblocked that it didn’t end in a violent manner. With Blaine becoming a gooey, black tar, weeping mess. I”m so confused.

    I also ship Dina and Faz. BECAUSE I HATE THE WORLD!

    1. Totz the Plaid

      I’m glad it didn’t end violently, actually. I still hate Blaine and think he deserves to be punished for his abusive actions, but as much as I’d love to see that play out via a physical altercation, I’d hate to see Ruth/Billie/Amber/whomever else get in trouble for assaulting him.

      1. Wensleydale

        You make a valid point, Totz. That would have been bad.

        If only Righteous Beatings were a thing acceptable in courts. Surely, nobody would abuse such a system.

        1. Aizat

          Or hell, a law supporting grievous bodily harm against assholes.

      2. Somebody

        He made the first move on Ruth. And people are generally more okay with a woman hitting a man. I’m not saying that’s good, I just think they’ll be fine.

    2. Aizat

      What did the world ever did to you to do this?

      1. Wensleydale

        It stole my meatball sub. Well, okay, one person stole my meatball sub.

        I figured I’d be fair and hate the world equally. Just in case.

        1. Joel Rice

          Your meatball sub was delicious! Hahahaahahahahaahahaha

        2. Wensleydale

          You! My sandwich related honor! We must fight!

          …Or we could put the moral of this story to use and get a proper authority figure to mediate. Or we could sword duel.

        3. Joel Rice

          Who wants to go through the proper authorities and possibly grow as individuals? WE DUEL WITH SWORDS!!!!

    3. Yotomoe

      Yes they are the best couple!!! High Five!

      1. Wensleydale

        The most epic of High Fives.

        1. The Candyman

          It would have to be in space, on a mountain, doing drugs to be any higher.

    4. Keroshino

      I am right there with you…

      Hate! Hate! Hate!

  30. Aizat

    I wanted to sarcastically called Blaine “Father of the Year” but then I remembered…it’s Blaine!

  31. Jack Finch

    Personal effects? No, just a son. Nothing important.

    1. Ragnal

      His son if Faz, so of course it’s nothing important.

  32. Fuzzydaemon

    Oh, oh, look at Billie’s face. Fourth day looks a little shaky.

    Dina looks as if she is getting ready to hurl, but I don’t even think that could deter Faz.

    1. Yotomoe

      Faz knows your bile is just your body preparing for the kissing of Faz. I learned this fact on animal planet.

  33. YakkoRex

    DOA Faz is the Clark wing mascot!

  34. Totz the Plaid

    You know, even if Ruth hadn’t made it so obvious who she meant, Blaine would’ve given himself away by revealing that he knows the sex of the R.A. in question, thus showing that he (most likely) knows exactly who Asma was referring to.

    Good thing Blaine’s an idiot!

    1. Aizat

      Yeah, but the blood is still a dead giveaway….unless there’s a lot of violence against parents during that day and the lobby is full of battered and bruised parents.

      1. Totz the Plaid

        Exactly.

        But I mean, had Ruth used a more general description like “guy with a jacket and glasses,” Asma would still be clued into the fact that Blaine’s the right guy since he knew that the R.A. in question is a “she” and not a “he.”

      2. Wensleydale

        There is a ton of violence that day. Family weekends are hellish, torturous things that nobody wants to participate in.

        1. Paul

          You’re joking, but from my own time as an RA, I really can’t remember a single family weekend that didn’t involve some form of medical emergency. Usually several.

      3. Roborat

        Well, it is common on family visit weekend; however the blood is usually from walking in on their kids having sexy times, not violence.

    2. John

      Asma said “Clark Wing”, so it just means that Blaine is familiar enough with the dorm to know which is the ladies’ wing, which is not a stretch for someone with a child in the dorm.

      1. Totz the Plaid

        Except that gives away that he’s the parent of someone in that wing, and since it’s an R.A. from that wing that requested a parent be removed… It still makes Blaine at least a very good candidate for being the parent in question.

        1. John

          Nah, his kid doesn’t have to be in that wing for him to know that it’s ladies in that wing. Dr. Rosenthal’s kid is in Beck Wing, for example, but I’d bet ya anything he still knows where to find the girls…

          And even if it did, it’d apply to roughly a quarter of the adults milling around here, which doesn’t make a great filter.

          The defensive and not-really-a-denial, “How do you know it’s me?” instead of something more like, “Huh? What? Why?” is a better indicator.

  35. Yotomoe

    No seriousely, I’m feeling Sad that Faz x Dina is not working out so far. I SHIP THEM SOOOOOOOOO HARD.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      The only ship Dina wants with Faz is for him to be on the Titanic.

      1. Yotomoe

        Faz’s love would keep him afloat and the sharks would be too grossed out to eat him.
        Faz’s boner would keep him warm.

        1. Joel Rice

          Wait a minute. I thought Faz’s boner could be used as a flotation device?

        2. Tenn

          Here is a diagram of Faz’s boner being used as a floatation device (image not to scale).

        3. Leorale

          Why did I click on that. Why.

        4. Tenn

          Because you have too much faith in humanity.

        5. Narf

          And that link was precisely as advertised. Although, your diagram could have used some labels. It kind of just looked like a doodle of a small Korean boy with a massive dong.

      2. AJBulldis

        I don’t even know if she would understand that.

  36. Count Dracula

    I do appreciate a work of fiction that acknowledges that there actually are authority figures in the setting, and the main characters don’t have to do anything themselves.

  37. Keroshino

    Dammit Ruth…you made Billie sad. 🙁

    1. saltchocolate

      I don’t think that’s an entirely sad face. A little bit of that face says “WTF, Ruth!”

  38. Plasma Mongoose

    Dina, ask yourself this, What Would Raptor Jesus Do in this situation.

    1. Aizat

      Eat him, EAT HIM!….or claw his face off.

      1. Kiggy

        Eat him, EAT HIM!….AND claw his face off.

        There, fixed it for you.

        1. Crimson Doom

          Well, which is it? That sounds like a pretty crucial conjunction.

  39. Turbo Sexaphonic

    Has Billie always been that pale? I’m just now noticing how very, very white she is. And this is coming from a pasty-skinned ginger, so that’s really saying something.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      I bet that happens a lot to many light-skinned people who avoid the sun for long periods of time.

      1. AJBulldis

        That and bone density loss (vitamin D helps bones absorb calcium).

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          So Billie’s not actually drunk, just showing signs of rickets?

        2. 6

          Probably not- fair skinned peeps are better at metabolizing dietary vitamin d, which, not being vegan, she would get plenty of.

  40. Wensleydale

    Am I sensing Billie/Ruth drama? Is my dramadar correct? Oh god please yes.

    1. Jack Finch

      I don’t thinks so. Asma knows about Billie’s alcoholism. It was prominent on the file Asma was looking at when checking Billie in on the first day. The ‘tude may be wholly her own.

  41. Plasma Mongoose

    Did you know Faz that if you jumped into an active volcano, you would be pleasingly crisp? 😛

    1. Aizat

      And do you know that people die if they are killed, Faz?

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        But if you have Dragon Balls, they don’t have to stay dead.

        1. Aizat

          Yeah but I’m not wasting my wish on bringing Faz back.

        2. Yotomoe

          Use it to bring back Krillin. He’s probably dead.

        3. VizardJeffhog

          SENZU BEAN! /flick

        4. Aizat

          Or happily married to hot cyborg….and people think he’s the chew toy.

        5. Yotomoe

          No, Krillin is the most compotent human (which means he dies more than any alien or monster)
          Yamcha is the chew toy.

  42. Kernanator

    Faz will be forced to live off of scraps of food.

    Also, nice save, Billie.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      “WILL DRAW CHARTS FOR FOOD”

      1. Leorale

        He’ll major in economics?

        1. Roborat

          LOL

    2. tahrey

      He will continue to wander the halls of residence… until the end of his days… never finding the exit, never quite managing to score.

      NB end of his days being when he dies of starvation in a few weeks. Or maybe of thirst, being barred first from the womens, and then the mens washrooms.

    3. Yotomoe

      Faz does not eat. He gains power from the women he has conquered.

  43. NinjaNick

    Now if we can escort that grinning sleazebag out of the building, there will be cheers.

    1. Tristan B.

      Amen to that bro. May he never get into Dina’s pants.

      1. Yotomoe

        But may he get into her heart.

    2. Crimson Doom

      Okay, so we’ve gotten rid of Joe. Now what? 😛

  44. Jon P

    I’m hoping we get a scene of Blaine continuing to fume as he walks down the sidewalk away from the building, wondering where his idiot step-son is, and then we get a zoom-out cut of Faz being chucked out a window.

    1. Aizat

      And lands right on top of Blaine…which Dina(or any member of her family) then yells “AND STAY OUT!”

  45. DT

    Maybe it’s just the way Dina structures her sentences coupled with her overall adorableness, but I swear every time I read a comic that includes her, she sounds like Hynden Walch’s Starfire in my head.

    1. Kernanator

      I am no longer able to avoid hearing this.

      1. Totz the Plaid

        Honestly, I hear her more like Tara Strong’s Twilight Sparkle.

        1. Totz the Plaid

          …or a cross between Twilight Sparkle and Raven (both voiced by Tara Strong).

        2. Yotomoe

          Really? I always heard her talking like BMO/ Mabel’s friend from gravity falls.

        3. Sir Robin

          I always hear Dorothy as Twilight Sparkle … and Dina as Fluttershy obviously

    2. Albi

      whoooooa far out!! Reading this made me realize– the way I read Dina’s voice is pretty damn close to Starfire’s (just a pitch or two lower).

    3. tahrey

      I -knew- she reminded me of -someone-… o_O
      CANNOT UNHEAR

    4. Cybersnark

      So, Dina is Starfire, Sal is Applejack –we need to cast everyone now.

      1. The Candyman

        I’ve been hearing Joyce as Tara Strong and Dorothy as Mae Whitman (Katara), if it counts.

  46. Minder

    …Am I the only one who takes Blaine’s willingness to leave without complaint as a sign that he fully intends to come back to finish what he started as soon as Asma turns the other way?

    1. Totz the Plaid

      Blaine may be stupid, and an abusive ass, but I doubt he’s stupid enough to re-enter the building immediately.

      He’ll probably stalk around and wait for Amber to come outside or be near another entrance to make his move.

  47. lightsabermario

    Dina! Summon Yoshi to swallow him and leave him in an egg.

  48. tahrey

    So Dina is actually Homer Simpson in disguise?

  49. Kiggy

    Please go away Faz…. X(

  50. Ziaheart

    Ah… the attic theory?

  51. Tenn

    “The Great Irritator Challengeri seduces females with its arousing scent and deep familiarity with books on how to seduce females. Here is a chart representing the movement of the Irritator Challengeri’s phallus during mating. As you can see, it moves in a most pleasurable pattern that is guaranteed to maximally stimulate the females’ lady parts. I perceive signs of arousal on your face.”

  52. Plasma Mongoose

    Dina badly needs a distraction so she can escape.

    1. Aizat

      Dina:”Look! A female who wishes to partake in your greatness”
      Faz:*turns around* “Where?”

      1. Yotomoe

        That is accurate as all females would like to partake in Faz’s greatness.

        1. Aizat

          Yotomoe? Now I know how you feel about Danny, because I feel the same thing about Faz.

  53. davidbreslin101

    Dina is only angry because she’s disturbed by her attraction to Faz’s skinny, useless little T-Rex arms.

    1. Yotomoe

      +1

  54. Totz the Plaid

    I had a realization. Remember yesterday how we all wondered how Billie could’ve forgotten her mission?

    Basically, burgeoning bisexual Billie is blameless. Sal, who she finds sexy, sauntered out in a schoolgirl skirt. Our fearless former-cheerleader couldn’t concentrate. Damn distraction.

    1. Totz the Plaid

      Hold on, I can fix that with better alliteration:

      Basically, busty burgeoning bisexual Billie is blameless. Sadly, she saw sexy Sal saunter out in a schoolgirl skirt. The fair, fearless former cheerleader couldn’t concentrate. Damn distraction.

      1. John

        Despite what Dominic Deegan would have you believe, alliteration is not a substitute for humor.

        1. Kaci

          Correct. It is the only humor.

        2. Totz the Plaid

          Nah, it’s not meant to be humorous (and I quit reading Dominic Deegan around the time of that “justifying rape to save someone’s life” debacle, because of said debacle… or really because I was disgusted with the plot points themselves).

          I’m just a dork who likes puns and alliteration.

    2. timemonkey

      But Sal is the least attractive woman in the comic!

      1. Aizat

        That is subjective, timemonkey. To you, Sal is least attractive but to some people, Sal is attractive. Maybe it’s the tough biker look or the southern drawl or it could be the school girl look.

        1. Totz the Plaid

          Not to Billie, she’s not.

          Remember when Ms. Billingsworth hit on Sal whilst drunk?

      2. saltchocolate

        You’ve *got* to be kidding!

      3. The Candyman

        Draw your sword and say that again!

      4. Yotomoe

        She’s not the least attractive but still pales in comparison to the adorableness that is Sierra.

      5. khambatta

        Nuh-uh!

  55. Whittier

    Poor Faz (says the guy who doesn ‘t know the other continuities).

    Also, yes, more Asma!

  56. Twirls

    I’m desk worker and I can say that in this sort of situation, we would call security anyhow. I don’t think we’d ever be expected to deal with a potentially violent situation on our own – furthermore, leave the desk unattended. At very least, the RD would do it.

    1. Paul

      I’ve always had the impression that (despite us only really seeing her behind the desk) Asma is in more of an RD role.

  57. Angel

    and he forgets his son…well, so much for this guy having any kind of redeemable qualities

    1. brionl

      Not forgotten, infiltrated.

      1. Kernanator

        OH MY GOD, THIS IS ALL PART OF BLAINE’S NEFARIOUS PLOT TO UNDERMINE INDIANA UNIVERSITY.

        1. Keroshino

          Da…Da…Daaaaa!

  58. AliaPie

    I love Dina’s line there. I’ll need to use it next time I want someone to stop talking.

  59. Maycroft

    I dunno, given the right conditions Dina and Faz look kidos shipable.

  60. The Phantom's Belch

    The Dina + Faz pairing is growing on me. Part of me feels sorry for Faz, another part feels sorry for Dina for being the object of Faz’s current attentions. And yet… they’re two people who don’t know really how to interact with people that well.

    Now I have this image of Amber returning to her dorm room and closing the door … only to find Dina and Faz biting each others’ arms and neck; Dina’s trying to kill him raptor-style, and Faz thinks she wants sex with him so he’s reciprocating. Which one Amber thinks is entirely dependent on the humor of the situation.

  61. Oruncrest

    “Please stop talking. Each new thing you say makes me want to pick my teeth with your femurs.”

    –that’s what you meant to say, right Dina?

  62. Charles Phipps

    I actually support Faz/Dinah.

    1. Leorale

      Dina doesn’t.

  63. nothri

    Not to make any excuses for Blaine or anything, but I’d probably “forget” Faz as well.

  64. Carlos

    What?! Blaine got to just walk out with a scrap of dignity before he had his ass handed to him? DAMN YOU WILLIS!!

  65. Raoullefere

    “How do you know she was talking about me?” So even when trying to wriggle out of a situation, Blaine’s ego can’t keep from injecting ‘me’ into the conversation. In fact, part of me wonders if he’s secretly pleased with being the ‘big bad’ who has to be shown off campus.

  66. Angrymang

    Faz is just annoying, while Blaine is EVIL.
