Don’t worry, soon she’ll be at yale and can cavort with all of the sophisticated ivy leaguers and tell tales of her old school where everyone’s brains melted when they met her
Technically she doesn’t hang out with them. They all just walked out of the same class and she’s making conversation as they walk back to the dorms. So far they’re just acquaintances. They haven’t interacted beyond class and leaving class.
you cant prove that, and i cant disprove it.. for all we know willis has thousands of scenes of them cavorting at Galasso’s Subs and pizza whatever its called.

No, neither of us can 100% prove our opinion it, but from what Willis has presented us, Walky, Joyce and Dorothy’s interaction has come off as limited. Especially since this is only their second day of class with Leslie.
I doubt that Walky has been physically capable of inviting Dorothy to do anything, and Dorothy is still surprised and put off by Walky’s zombie act, meaning I doubt she’s sought him out to hang. Meanwhile, considering how much bible thumping Joyce does in (she has yet to interact with someone without her beliefs coming up in some manner or another), I would think that the subject of Dorothy’s atheism would have already come up long before this if they hung out, outside of class.
Again, neither of us can prove or disprove it, but right now, I’m not getting the impression that this Dorothy interacts with them very often. Particularly since she’s intentionally trying to limit any sorts of relationships with people, so that way she can leave the school first chance she gets.

This is only the third day of classes in the first week of school. I don’t think it’s possible for there to have been behind-the-scenes thousands of anything.

You forget what most college guys do with streaming video behind closed doors
Hmm, the college is about 2 hours and 50 minutes from where I live in Cinci, I’d suggest if she can’t find a good church she visit ours on weekends, but am sure there are plenty of good ones same beliefs there.
Joyce looks like her puppy just was killed by atheists, or worse yet, ANYONE with a slightly different view of the world than her. Oh the humanity, the horrible, diverse humanity!
i disagree, my two boxes of mcnuggets and i get along well. we dont argue about which box i eat from.
Heather
Two boxes?
Dude you eat a 100 total by yourself?
HOW?
I’m stll weirded out by the fact people can consume 50 in one sitting by themselves which I’m not sure we even have as an option the UK myself (beyond the obvious buying several smaller portions).
David
I got a value meal the other day with ten McNuggets, my first ten-pack ever, and I got sick of them exactly at McNugget #6. I think McNuggets are about 5% chicken and 95% Pavlovian conditioning.
Stiffen that upper lip, Walkerton! How do you expect to swoon a lady when you’re quivering like Jell-o?
And belay those hiccups, Miss Brown! This is neither the time nor the place for a meltdown; you’re only allowed to have one after your first five days at school!
They were not made of sterner stuff, I fear. You’ve got to be strong and try to hang on, or your mind may very well snap and your life will be lived for the thrills.

Can’t say “full of hicks.”

I dunno what I hate more: your pun, or that I didn’t think of it first.

I saw it immediately and was like, “Oh good grief.”

“Hics” is the title of this strip for a reason.

If you stare at Walky long enough, he’ll stare back through you.

Too late.
wnderjif
why does she hang out with these people?
dchorror
Cause they are far more normal than the people she came here with?
JackNapier
Maybe she doesn’t know anyone else except for Danny and Joe, and she’ll probably be avoiding them for the time being.

Wait… I’m lost… If this the 3rd day of the first week… Why would amber not having a class at the same time last week be a surprise to Mike?

not the same time last week, but the same time monday, I’m led to believe their working on a mon/wed/fri schedule

And yet, I have caused more confused confused conversations

Considering what you were saying I think that actually turned out pretty well. I mean, I know I was confused confused for a second there.

Well, between Walky’s gollumface and Joyce’s muppetface, I’d say Indiana is full of critically-acclaimed movies!

I just realized, we haven’t seen a Sunday yet. I’m looking forwards to Joyce encountering the college church environment.
calendarman27
I wonder what would be better? A church that conflicts with her super conservative upbringing, or one that reinforces it?
Sarah
Depending on how far away her parents are, she may visit them every weekend and go to her home church on Sundays. She seems like the sort to do so.

Really hoping Walky snaps out of it soon. I dunno about anyone else, but his blank lovestruck stare is getting pretty old as far as Im concerned.

Dorothy seems to be really good at breaking people….
hannza314
breaking people is a superpower not to be used lightly.
Hello, Mr. Anderson
The only acquaintance she hasn’t broken is Joe, I assume because she wants nothing to do with him.

No, I imagine a montage of we can rebuild him, but he’ll hit on everything and succeed.

Is Walky fully aware of his zombie-mode? I’ve never been quite sure.
