    Awww, she thinks she can actually teach Walky to be less creepy 😀 That’s absolutely adorable and completely naive

    1. NCP19

      It’s the DOA equivalent to My Fair Lady/Pygmalion.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Repeat after me, “The cocaine from Spain mainly affects the brain.”

        1. sir buzzkillington III

          okay, that comment went from funny to terrifying when i saw your avatar.
          those eyes…

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          My Calice ava makes everything I say more sinister.

        3. turkishproverb

          Ok, Now I love you.

        4. Plasma Mongoose

          I love you too… a good, clean love… without utensils. 😀

        Pantsmalion?

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          I have heard of stone-WASHED jeans but I have never heard of stone-CARVED jeans.

        2. Mancuso

          Nerdmalion! Freakmalion? Dibs on Geekmalion!!

        3. Bekah

          This comment made me think of something completely awesome and completely unrelated.

          I won’t spam a link here, but I will advise everyone to google the word Poop and follow the first youtube link you see.

    2. Joraiem

      Oh come on, Walky can be fixed. He isn’t nearly as hopeless as my roommate.

      He got banned from being anywhere near the girls’ dorm because he’s just that creepy.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Anyone can be fixed… including the cat.

  2. David Herbert

    He’s wearing her down. Soon he’ll be joeing all over her.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Sounds sticky!

      1. Bekah

        I imagine that many things involving Joe become sticky at some point.

    2. Whyisthismydefaultgravatar

      He’s wearing her dooown, baby. He’s wearing her down.
      She loves him, doesn’t she?
      Did he do that?
      …Look what she did!!

      1. truelight86

        Family matters overload. head hurts.

  3. Mkvenner

    At least he didn’t go all freaky bug eyed.

    1. MM

      You sure? I think it’s just hard to tell ’cause he’s in profile.

      1. JK9000

        Well, we can see his eyes are different in the first panel. They look sorta-bug-eyed there. But the other two, he’s calm and collected. He’s got pants to talk about.

    2. iSaidCandleja-

      Maybe his other eye is bug ey… nevermind, sounds painful.

  4. Jen Aside

    “HEY YUO CAN BUY PANTS”

  5. Plasma Mongoose

    One of these days? So we readers will have to wait a few decades for this to happen then?

    1. begbert2

      Well, in the other continuity (Mention Of Other Continuity Alert!! Flee! Flee now! While you still have your tennis rackets!) it took several years for Waky to mature, so presuming a similar rate of development in this continuity…we’d better hope Willis is a time lord, so he’ll stay un-senile long enough to write it.

      1. Bekah

        Especially considering that the strip has been running for over a year, and as far as the characters are concerned, only a week has passed.

  6. MM

    YOU GET THEM FOR ME?

    1. begbert2

      There are really still people who think that Walky still wants the pants for himself? He’s rather obviously just a pantsanegelist.

  7. Uniqueantique

    Walky is one of a kind, why change him? But then…so is she

  8. Rognik

    Normally, you’re supposed to get girls OUT of their pants, not into them.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      But at the same time, his plans still involve getting into some girl pants.

      1. Wandering Meme

        In a completely innocent, curious George kind of way.

      2. Mancuso

        …while the girl is not in them.
        Apart from that, it’s a pretty sound plan.

    2. iSaidCandleja-

      But what if they are your pants?

      1. Matt

        Well, that just sounds uncomfortable. Two people in one pair of pants? I hope they’re sweats!

        1. ryan

          they aren’t sweats, but they do stretch!

    3. ScytheAkse

      Maybe he wants her to get em because pajama pants are so easy to get off of girls?

    4. George

      You say that like she’s going to wear her new pants over her old ones. He’s definitely going to cause her pantslessness. The trick is going to be being in the same room as her when it happens.

    5. alex

      she has to get out of one pair to get into the other.
      just sayin’

    6. NakedDumblydore

      You’re forgetting that to get into the new pants, she first has to get OUT of the old ones. 😉

      1. NakedDumblydore

        And now I notice that alex beat me to it. ><

    7. ryan

      the pants fetishists are truly misunderstood.

  9. DK1105

    Hey looks like Dorothy finally decided to go buy some new clothes. To bad she didn’t know about the pants before.

  10. iSaidCandleja-

    At least it isn’t more Monkey Master porn.

  11. andrew

    i want those pants

    1. Kernanator

      I want them like burning.

      1. Wandering Meme

        WHY COME WOMEN GETS ALLA DA KEWL OUTRWERE?

        1. The Sound Defense

          I have a pair of khakis that fit like jeans. They’re the best pants ever.

  12. Aizat

    For some reason, I could understand Walky’s situation.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      You been craving a pair of PJ jeans too?

      1. Aizat

        No, the difficulty to talk with other people.

        1. Alex

          I am probably a real life Walky, without all the junkfood.

        2. Wandering Meme

          Same here…although he also has trouble talking to his sis. Think it’s related?

        3. Mythril

          Huh, yeah, I guess if you’ve been conditioned to believe that anything you say to a girl might result in a punch to the face, you might get nervous talking to girls.

        4. Aizat

          Nah, I was conditioned to believe that anything I say might lead to a kick in the nuts and mace.

        5. begbert2

          Ahh, high school. The memories…

        6. a99steaksauce

          It doesnt appear that he has difficulty talking. More like he chooses his words poorly because he doesnt know any better.
          On another note, he hasnt broken down while in the vicinity of Dorothy. Im so proud (look at avatar for smiley face).

        7. Xi

          Mike being proud of Walky? Somehow, I doubt he’d ever admit it. Even while drunk. But, this is the DoAverse.

          On another note, where is all the Mike FAAAAAACEpunching?

  13. Kernanator

    Dorothy, you’re talking to him like he has an attention span longer than an hour.

    Don’t worry, it’s a common mistake.

  14. OhHayMike

    I really want Walky to get those pants.

  15. Janette

    I saw those pants at Target.

    …they’re $40.

  16. Henry

    With the current conversation topic, the differences between Walky and Joe are readily apparent.

  17. Aesurru

    Walky really really wants someone to buy those pants, apparently. Oh Walky, you’re the best.

  18. Drunken Nordmann

    He’s harboring a perverse sexual lust for these pants, I take it?

    1. Drunken Nordmann

      Wait… was that a meme from Shortpacked! or DOA? I’m confused… too many memes…

      1. Xi

        Perverse sexual lust started in It’s Walky. Plowing through those 7 (8?) years of webcomics in a week is not recommended by me, but I did it anyway months ago. It’s how Willis hooked me on his writing. DAMN YOU WILLIS!!!!!

  19. Xalticus

    Something I’ve been wondering: Who is Dorothy’s room mate? Has this person not been introduced yet, or am I just very forgetful?

    1. David

      She’s not been introduced in the strip yet.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Will this room-mate be of any interest or just a filler character?

        1. Caffienated

          Please not Mary Paul ><

        2. ryan

          don’t worry, it’s gonna be faz.

        3. Lord Synick XXIII

          Dorothy’s roomie should be Malaya.

        4. Plasma Mongoose

          + her head-pet iguana, Fuckface.

        5. Eposi

          Mary is rooming with Roz, and not happy about it. also she now seems to be a late riser

  20. Ancestral Hamster

    With pretty much any other guy, the line would be perverted, but not with Walky. It really is an innocent remark.

    1. Jinxed44

      Wait… How is it perverted???
      I am apparently too innocent as well.

  21. BlobMarley

    GO DAMMIT DOTTY JUST SHUT UP AND CHECK OUT THE PANTS

  22. NakedDumblydore

    Just noticed: either they’re all super short, or those are some freakishly tall doors. Dotty would need a step-stool to see through the peek hole.

    1. Azukar

      I used to live in a house where all the doors were nearly ceiling-height, but all the doorknobs and handles were unusually low. We concluded that the house had been built by a giant who was married to a dwarf.

    2. Michelle J Caboose

      Actually, when Dorothy has been shown standing next to Danny, she’s been quite a bit shorter than him. I also seem to recall that Walky is kind’a short, too (at least in comparison with other members of the cast).

  23. darcos0

    That’s a good pickup line from walky

  24. shoeboxjeddy

    Hey that’s not so bad. It’s certainly a strange line to start with, but who doesn’t like pants?

    1. Rognik

      Sal, apparently.

  25. Tom T.

    I confess I’ve forgotten what Dorothy is apologizing for from last night. Can someone fill me in?

    1. ryan

      after returning from the party, she went to walky’s room and watched some cartoons. it wasn’t so she could be with walky though. she just wanted to get her mind off of what happened to joyce.

  26. Asuka L.S.

    NO! Dorothy, you must not teach Walky female-ese! That goes against the precepts set forth by the Gynocouncil! You could have your ovaries revoked!

    1. begbert2

      That sounds rather painful.

    2. Xi

      The avatar makes this strangely terrifying.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        It involves the use of an ice-cream scooper.

  27. Name

    Why Walky is the best. Sorry Joyce.

  28. Zuche

    Weren’t there supposed to be pina coladas in this strip?

    1. a99steaksauce

      where was that impression given?

      1. Kamino Neko

        Check the title.

        *sighs and sings that stupid damn song quietly to self*

    2. begbert2

      We had sierra mist not long ago. Close enough? It had roofies!

      1. Zuche

        I’ll concede the point to you on that one.

  29. Ryan Balis

    Walky surely knows what a girl wants…. jean-pants

  30. NF

    Paaaaaaaants…

  31. dwillisva

    They do sell sweatpants that look like jeans for men they are called cargo sweats or cargo sweatpants online and in some stores

  32. Gargamel

    When I first read “One of these days, I’m going to teach you how to talk to girls” it sounded vaguely like she was talking about bondage…

    1. Ragnal

      I fail to see the connection.

      …And people thought I was weird with my foot comment a few days back. >_>

  33. Blob Marley

    If Dotty’s gonna be a snark, she should give back Monkey Master. Just sayin’.

  34. Kamino Neko

    Every single time I look at this strip, Walky’s line makes me burst into giggles.

    It’s…just…so…beautiful.

  35. Jeanine

    http://www.whatonearthcatalog.com/whatonearth/Item_Jeans-Lounge-Pants_CE0032P_ps_srm.html

    …Just sayin’. I’ve seen these around for a couple years…

  36. Bekah

    I know a Walky (not a dude named Walky FTR, just a very Walky-esque individual). I’ve tried to teach him how to talk to girls. All the basic precepts and axioms are completely lost on him.

    He once started a conversation with a girl he barely knows by telling her he’d eaten so much candy the night before that it made the roof of his mouth peel.

  37. johannhowitzer

    I just noticed the shading under Dorothy’s bust line is missing in panel three.

  38. Miss DeRanged

    I think I’m falling in love wit Walky…

  39. Lis

    Wow that is one heck of a proposition there Walky.
