I dunno, I think Willis will avoid anything as obvious as that. Raidah knows she has a chance to fuck with Sarah, so she’ll be on her best behavior. And Sarah knows that she has to be careful and not look like a jerk by comparison to these people.
Or if it does happen, it’ll be quick and not drawn out. Or something. I have no idea.
Billie Billie Billie…
Friendship doesn’t suck out Sarah’s life force. One of the first things she did in this comic is get to know Joyce a bit and ask her out for pizza.
It’s party-focused idiots like you and Raidah that suck out her life force. Big difference.
The questionable Chinese buffet I had dinner at tonight took a pretty good shot at it.
Berenzen
I’m pretty sure that several ponds of McDonalds would suck the life out of anyone. I mean, that’s a lot of food depending on the depth of the water line.
I really hope this doesn’t turn into “Sarah was right, these girls are bad influences” thing. Instead, I hope it’s a “Joyce and Billie find their own way and form unique relationships, whether they’re positive or negative, with each of these girls” thing.
Sarah is between a rock and a hard place. If she opens her mouth in a negative way against the ‘sharks’: Joyce may think she is just being her old anti-social self and Billie is already reinforcing that thought with her big mouth. Billie will put the screws to Sarah because she dosn’t like her to begin with and because she will ‘stab everything’ to get the ‘sharks’ for friends. Also, Joyce is standing there dressed head to toe in a new outfit Billie is buying for her. Sarah is screwed.
Radiah seems like a very fun and interesting character, and Sarah is getting a lot of needed characterization and development. I am really liking Radiah though, nad Sarah is interesting when you start seeing her walls break down.
It actually kinda makes me sad that i know the point of “Everyone here already hates me, anything i say will just fuck it up even more.” and now poor Sarah looks like she’s going to cry because of it. There there Sarah. *pats* Just go ahead and screw it all to death.
Think of all the nuclear bombs detonating on Earth at once, while the Sun explodes at the exact same time. That doesn’t even compare to what’s happening in Sarah’s mind right now.
and us older guys can always tell which girls are naively unaware that not all friendships are good. “Oh you can be our friend but we are all about drama and you never ever disagreeing with us”
Discussion (78) - “Size”
Jen Aside
This mall is too small.
Kernanator
This mall ain’t big enough for the two of us.
Plasma Mongoose
They should have gone to a mega-mall.
Yotomoe
I like Mega-Mall X actually.
Wonder Wig
I prefer Mega-Maul. Mr Bongo the vengeful bear is the best protagonist ever.
Historyman68
Mah spoon is too big!

It was bound to happen.
NCP19
Anyone else hearing that Kill Bill red-tinted music?
Kernanator
Yes Joyce. You should never leave your room, except for classes.
Yotomoe
And husband hunts.
Doctor_Who
Now I picture Joyce stalking the campus with a tranq gun and a specially trained hunting dog who can sniff out Nice Christian Boys.
“Be vewy vewy quiet. I’m huntin’ matwimony!”
Unfortunately, Mike switched the signs. She is unaware it’s actually Gay Jewish Guy season.
Rex Hondo
I know some guys will be very interested to know when bear season opens.
Raoullefere
Thanks, Doc, Now, to balance Sara’s vision of a tarted up, Billiefied Joyce, I have a mental image of a bald Joyce wearing an over-sized hunting cap.
David Herbert
Sarah looks ready to cry. Aww, she’s worried she’s gonna lose her little sis.
Rognik
I’m glad I’m not the only one to think that. Panels 3 and 5 have her more angry, but in between, it looks more like she’s going to bawl.
Historyman68
To me the expression reads: “Trapped!”
ChaoticRambler
Prediction: Raidah says something douchy, Joyce stands up for Sarah, everyone learns a lesson.
:D:D:D
Yotomoe
can this lesson involve fists?
Rex Hondo
Today we are going to learn about The Parable of the Severed Femurs.
Rognik
I doubt the lesson part. At least if Raidah is included in “everyone”. I think even Sarah might not quite learn something.
Cybersnark
“I didn’t learn anything, I was right all along.”
Historyman68
I dunno, I think Willis will avoid anything as obvious as that. Raidah knows she has a chance to fuck with Sarah, so she’ll be on her best behavior. And Sarah knows that she has to be careful and not look like a jerk by comparison to these people.

begbert2
Based on Raidah’s facial expressions, I’m not sure she has the restraint to pull it off. We’ll see though.
Doctor_Who
Friendship is Anti-Magic.
Bekah
I counterspell your anti-magic.
Yotomoe
I can’t-er spell your anit-magic
Doctor_Who
I cantaloupe your Auntie Madge.
Yotomoe
I counter-spilled my Apple-mango
Jehosaphat
I cccccccombo-breaker your comment thread.
Audiophillie
It’s super effective!
Plasma Mongoose
Am I the pony one to make the appropiate horse puns?
Yotomoe
We already did horse puns. It got unstable.
Plasma Mongoose
Don’t be such a neigh-sayer.
Yotomoe
Well you’re the mane one who was dong them in the first place.
thomas0comer
*doing*
Kernanator
No, he meant dong. Didn’t you know? Dong is now a verb.
Plasma Mongoose
As in donging people in the face.
Jackson
So easily distracted by a simple misspelled word! Canter you guys keep horsing around for longer than that?
Yotomoe
neigh.
Leorale
That would be unbridled madness
Yotomoe
You can see Sarah’s heart breaking
Bekah
You can actually pinpoint the second when her heart rips in half.
Plasma Mongoose
Aint technology wonderful? 😀
Bearfuz
FTW.
Yotomoe
Sarah really needs to be in a frowning contest.
Rex Hondo
Billie Billie Billie…

also leeches, mosquitos, and incubi
Rex Hondo
To say nothing of vampires of various flavors, metroids, drochs, and wights.
Khrene Cleaver
Personally nothing sucks the life outta me like eating Several ponds of McDonalds…

Brasca1
Well at the very least Billie will get along with Joyce’s new friends.
Rognik
Joyce’s comment sounded more like something Dina would say. “Making friends is bad? These humans are such strange creatures.”
Yotomoe
She takes notes in her notepad and draws a crude drawing of the confrontation.
Aaron
I really hope this doesn’t turn into “Sarah was right, these girls are bad influences” thing. Instead, I hope it’s a “Joyce and Billie find their own way and form unique relationships, whether they’re positive or negative, with each of these girls” thing.

“by getting into drugs.”

Shit, meet Fan, bring Umbrella.

Well fuck.

I really like this story arc.

Historyman68
I like “screw it all to death”- it’s a more extreme version of “damn it all to hell”
Khrene Cleaver
I THOUGHT WHAT WE HAD WAS SPECIAAAAAALLLLL!!!!
Raoullefere
Sara’s paranoia… off the scale… they’re all turning on her! She should have… stayed in bed.
Also, I see her suddenly slipping into Shatner-speak.
Kernanator
Paranoia is a very comforting state of mind.
It makes you think that you matter.
Historyman68
I won’t be able to stop hearing Sarah’s dialogue as Shatner now.
antiwesley
It looks like Raidah is shoving the jacket into her purse as well.
“Here, hold this for me…” as the Mall cops come running out of the gate.
Historyman68
Billie is such a dork. She uses phrases like this, and still despises nerds?
Jimmy
Think of all the nuclear bombs detonating on Earth at once, while the Sun explodes at the exact same time. That doesn’t even compare to what’s happening in Sarah’s mind right now.
