Tomorrow (Wednesday) Dumbing of Age Book 2 will be available on Comixology!
And this weekend I'm still coming to see you folks in Austin at Webcomic Rampage!
Actually, I suppose I’ve done this with hugging before. I only wish it’d been with a significant othe–actually that’s a silly term, of course it was with someone significant. I wish it was with a GIRLFRIENDyperson.
Looks like Billie’s outfit ain’t the only thing that’s too 90’s around here…
Mr. Bulbmin
You haven’t gone “too 90’s” until you’re referencing that decade’s worst pop songs whilst wearing a denim jacket wherein the pockets are loaded with N64 cartridges.
Khrene Cleaver
You just gave me something stupid to do this winter break
I first heard of/saw Rush Limbaugh on the Donahue show back in the 80s when as far as I was concerned, kicked Donahue’s ass.
These days, I’m less than impressed with him these days though.

In a choice between Hannity, Rush, and Savage Nation, I would choose Savage, just because he dislikes everyone equally. I was once stuck in an area where I could only get Fox News Radio during an election year. Savage was one of the few gasps of sanity during that time.
Michael Savage is a misogynistic, homophobic, xenophobic birther who tells “sodomites” to “get AIDS and die.” Suffice it to say, “sanity” has a wildly different definition where I come from.
Keep in mind its been going for like ten years so you’ve got a ~2600 strip backlog and about three artstyle changes to go through.
LiaHansen
way more changes than that. And the crazy thing is, they’re actually pretty subtle individually, so you don’t really notice while you’re reading. Then, when you look back at the early ones, it just blows your mind.
The Candyman
The same thing happens in Shortpacked.
xKiv
I looked back and didn’t recognize Hannelore on her first appearance.
Curacaobill
I can handle it I on average complete a 1500 page comic every 2 days. If yiou guys have any other suggestions I would love to hear em
But who’s cuter together…Dorothy and Walky or Paz and Kat??
Tacdud2
They are both quite the pair.
Ourorboros
At the risk of being too pervy, it’s Renard’s “sniff sniff” first, before saying “Paz’ that make the joke.
The reminder that his nose will ALWAYS know what Kat’s been doing.
John
If you don’t want Rey to know who you’ve been doing, shower and change clothes before you talk to him.
The question is, is that worth not being able to smell your S.O. on your hands and clothes for the rest of the day yourself?
Tacdud2
If getting rid of the scent of Paz then it is not worth it. I mean Kat even said blowing her stuff up was worth Paz.
paradoxius

Curacaobill
Both are great but we don’t really know much about Paz so I choose Walky x Dorothy
Annie is less prejudiced than anyone I’ve ever seen. I expect homophobia will be one of the easier fears for her to overcome, if she hasn’t already.
*let’s make DoA the Gunnerkrigg comment section*
Vorkon
Gunnerkrigg comment section? I’m fine with that! The actual Gunnerkrigg comment section might be okay for letting Tom know what you think, but it’s kind of lousy for carrying on a conversation.
Anyway, I think potential homophobia will be the least of Annie’s problems. Like you said, she’s remarkably accepting of unfamilar people, ideas, and situations. However, the one thing she’s REALLY bad at is sorting out her own feelings. If she’s afraid of becoming less important to her best friend (sort of like Joyce gets over Dorothy here) she’ll just withdraw like she did when she got her dad’s letter, (and like she behaved at the beginning of the story, for that matter) and will never, ever admit that she’s even having a problem long enough for Kat to reassure her.

Raise your hands if you’ve done this.

What if we wish we had?

I hereby wish upon you the gift of having this this totally happen to you soon.

Why thank you!

If by “this”, you mean awkwardly third wheel in the background behind two madly in love friends, then yes, I have.

^ Yup, mark me down for that.

Been on both sides, personally.

;_; I didn’t even think of that…I was being optimistic. D:

This is how my high school girlfriend and I would greet each other when we passed in the halls between classes.
The rule against PDAs may have been due to hazards to passers-by, come to think of it.

Raises hand like a boss.

Thanks for making me feel Forever Alone, guys…
Plasma Mongoose
You’re welcome! ^_^

You’re not alone! Well, maybe you are, but we’re united in our loneliness.

I’m right there with ya! 🙁

And without falling down!

And then they banged.

no, just cuddling…

Glad I could help (?).
xKiv
I don’t recognize that version of xtree.
David Herbert
I wonder if they’ll break some walls.
Plasma Mongoose
Just hope for Dotty’s sake that this will be the only kind of ‘accident’ she has with Walky.
Yotomoe
They’ll crash into a truck at full speed.
Doctor_Who
A-HA! Willis said no one would be hit by a truck in this comic! He said nothing about the truck being hit by them!
Cephalo the Pod
PREPOSTEROUS.
Their babies would be adorable.
Plasma Mongoose
But can you imagine Walky as the ‘First Gentleman’ in the White House?
Shrugs
“First Gentleman Launches ’50 pc. Chicken Nugget Boxes for All Citizens’ program.”
Plasma Mongoose
And to deal with all the cholesterol/fat based health issues as a result of Walky’s program, Dotty will initiate KEENERCARE.
Xavier Nine
And the Internet rose up in once voice, and together they said…
THANKS KEENER.
John
I’m still rooting for First Lady Joyce Keener.
Plasma Mongoose
I for one would love to see a Joyce Brown VS Sarah Palin debate.
saltchocolate
My head is exploding…
David Willis
I’m not sure it’d be a debate. They’d just keep agreeing on everything.
Plasma Mongoose
Since Joyce more or less represents what you were when you were younger, you would have been a Sarah Palin fanboy if she was around in the 90s??
David Willis
Unreservedly. I was a Rush Limbaugh fan and he wasn’t even hot.

I’m a moderate btw.

Nice choice!

Heh. ” Paz…Nice choice!!”
And the look on Kat’s face? Priceless!

I don’t know. Rey’s being kind of “warning, she might be backwater”, and I seriously hope Annie isn’t.
