I’m having a rough day, faith in humanity wise so I’m just going to say Ruth’s eyes are very pretty in this lighting and also go back to happy mental health places.
I might get some milk in a minute. And then maybe in the morning I’ll check out some Steven Universe or something like that that always makes me happy.

Hey.
Butts loves you.
(butts love you? i’m not sure how i should be pluralizing… my…selves…?)
Deanatay
Are you a person named butts? Or are you, actually, a collection of butts? It’s linguistically relevant.
I’m assuming putting the arms were read as code and eaten as a result
vlademir1
Yeah. If you’re using them in any online textbox that parses HTML style markup, rather than, say, BBCode style, you have to be careful what side you look toward first or use certain unicode tricks.

That clear view of her scrunchie is weirding me out, my brain refuses to remember that Billie doesn’t have short hair in DoA, if her ponytail’s behind her head I just register it as not existing.
And those who construct “kinds” jokes with broken parallelism. The first kind you mention possesses the ability to count while the second kind doesn’t perform the action to count. Those two kinds are not exclusive which is usually a crucial element to that type of joke. In particular, a person may be able to count, thus being of the first kind, and choose not to count, thus being also of the second kind.
Perhaps that is part of the joke as well, but a little clarification seemed to be needed or at least I felt compelled to add it. Indeed, perhaps you are driving at a different and perhaps subtler point: everyone can count, but not everyone chooses to exercise that ability.

Don’t explain the joke. Or do. That was actually pretty good.
Nymphie
Richard made a joke on its own based on that previous joke should have said “there are three kinds of people in the world. Those who can count, and those that can’t.” not “don’t”. So it wasnt so much explaining the joke as deconstructing it
There are 10 kinds of people in the world … those who understand binary and those who don’t. (speaking of binary, Willis … back in the late 1970s there used to be a bank in downtown Columbus near the Statehouse that had a binary clock on its outside wall. Is it – the clock – still there and working?
Billie is awesome because in McAwesomes, you never have to pretend to be an actual person. I’m curious, has Billie looked into joining any sorority’s? Those are the places you go when you need the stability of high school cliques and the comfort of being surrounded by fellow rich people.
What’s the ‘A’ set? Is that similar to the A-Team?
BenRG
The most popular people – the ones that tell themselves that everyone wants to be part of their clique and that they have the right to bully everyone who isn’t part of their clique due to their intrinsic superiority.
If you recall, Billie, that attitude is why no-one wanted anything to do with you when you started at IU. I suspect that she has a violent and awful learning curve awaiting her.

Billie had better get a move on, three other people need to wake up with her butt in their face today.
butts
good morning, doctor
Doctor_Who
Waking up at the crack of dawn is for amateurs.
Dawn’s butt isn’t nearly as nice as Billie’s.
Side One
But she may be even more popular… at least with the Amateurs.
Victor
Disagree.

But Billie’s not an amateur. No sirree-Bob.
Tomorrow morning, she’s gonna be waking up at the crack of Dawn. (yeah yeah it’s a crummy buttcrack-related joke…what, you expected more from me? :P)

Did you try eating? When I’m depressed, A good meal, a sweet dessert and laying in bed to watch cartoons makes me feel great in no time.

😀 Jedi hugs are best hugs!

Does that mean a Sith Hug is actually Force Choke?
BBCC
I think its more like that awkward scene in DH 2 where Voldemort hugs Draco.

They share love through choke hold

There are three types of people in the world, those who can count and those who don’t.

Billy you gonna flunk out
Doctor_Who
Billie: Dammit, I’m flunking math.
Walky: I know a guy who can help. Want to go see him?
Billie: Walky, I have no interest in meeting some nerd friend of yo-
Walky: He works behind a bar.
Billie: LET’S GO I LOVE MATH!

Walky and Billie and Jason perform a drunken tutor

tutorship? tutorial?
TemporalShrew
No no, tutorship is what Sal and Jason were.
Bagge
Honestly, that’s a HUGE step up from the “codependent suicide pact” where she was a few days ago.
Kernanator
Oh cool, so popularity gives you teleportation.
jeffepp
Well, that’s one way to explain that sleeping position.
BrokenEye, the True False Prophet
No, you’re thinking of mojo

Popularity gives you mojo? Mojo gives you teleportation?

If Billie likes attention so much why not just take up acting or is she trying to become a reporter like in the last universe.
King Daniel
As mentioned early in this comic’s run, she’s majoring in journalism.
Bagge
Huh. I was thinking maybe… THEATRE

Oh, crap. Did Billie get so drunk last night that she’s waking up still drunk?
Not that I would recognize the signs from personal experience or anything.
thejeff
Last time we saw Billie she was with Faz, so maybe? I can see that driving someone to drink.

This is prettymuch what my college experience was.
Of course, this is also prettymuch why I dropped out.
Plasma Mongoose
Because of too much ass and not enough class??
Keulen
As someone who was never one of the popular crowd in my school years, I still don’t see the point in doing stuff solely to be popular.
BenRG
Trust me, for strongly social people, not being in the ‘A’ set is worse than death.

Bagge
Yes, yes, but that was then.
NOW she has a whole wing full of admirers, so now she can start over properly.
C.T Phipps
They really need to have Billie join a sorority.
Bagge
Exactly her thought.
Preferably one with lots of insane keg stand parties
BrokenEye, the True False Prophet
Don’t call Ruth an “it”
BKC
Wearin’ those glasses, tho.
Bagge
I’m glad to see that Billie is doing well in college.
