  1. Mr. Random

    Oh, Joyce, you dirty pervert.

    1. Mr K

      She needs to take a sex ed course.

      1. Tunaro

        I think the shock of that might send her into a coma, and this comic is already soap opera-y enough after Billy and Ruth’s last storyline.

        1. Sageress

          Make it happen.

        2. Mr. Random

          The only way out is for everyone to perform a musical.
          And they have to do it in the hospital room.
          And if they don’t sell enough tickets, the dolphin orphanage is going to get turned into a swimming pool! For Sharks!

        3. Beige

          pretty sure the dolphin’s won’t mind that to much

          dolphins pray on sharks afterall

        4. Gigafreak

          Meanwhile in another universe…

        5. N0083rP00F

          O M G {snerk} …… [pant wheeze gasp] … I forgot about that one

      2. TPman

        I don’t think she’s ready for the kind of sex course that would cover strap-ons.

      3. Brady

        In what universe does sex ed discuss strap-ons?

    2. Jen Aside

      THOSE STRAP-ON HOODIES

      1. Jay Eff

        Joyce also has a suction hoodie.

        1. Sageress

          Velcro pants.

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          Velcro pants: perfect for those people who really REALLY love sheep. :3

        3. Tunaro

          How the Hell do the conversations in these comments keep ending up feeding Rule 35?

        4. Plasma Mongoose

          Practice, practice, practice. ^_^

        5. Parnifia the Bastard

          The best practice.

      2. Giw

        Like the one worn by Joyce in the avatar of user Kernanator?

      3. djhash

        I have to admit. I only got the joke after reading your comment!

        Willis!!!! WILLIS!! I’m SAWWRRREEE!

  2. David Herbert

    She could wear a strap on to turn herself into a unicorn.

    1. Chris_Fleming

      Unicorns aren’t taught in Sunday school. Won’t fly with her. lolz

      1. Salmo

        They are in the Bible, though. There’s a number of creationist apologetics for this, ranging from “They meant elasmotherium” to “it’s a mistranslation of deer” to my favorite, “there were unicorns back then, now they’re extinct.” But the real explanation, the Bible was written by people who believed in unicorns because they didn’t know any better, wouldn’t cross Joyce’s head.

        1. Evil Midnight Lurker

          It’s not just creationist apologetics, or even religious people, who make those claims: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Re%27em

        2. Kryss LaBryn

          WTF?! How can anyone read that passage and honestly think a magical horse thingie was meant instead of an ox of some kind?! Seriously, when the hell was the last time anyone used a UNICORN to plough their fields and to help gather the harvest in, instead of oxen?

          Whoever translated that back when was a moron. The moreso because back then they were STILL USING OXEN TO DO IT.

          A unicorn? Seriously? Sheesh.

        3. Cybersnark

          Yeah, unicorns don’t do manual labour.

          That’s what Earth ponies are for.

        4. ForceUser

          You are my hero

        5. Ben

          Hey, I like to believe there used to be, or even still are, unicorns and it has nothing to do with my religion. I just think a world in which magical beings exist is more interesting than one without them, and that’s the kind of world I want to live in.

        6. RadtheCad

          Unfortunately, wishing something were real doesn’t make it so.

          I wish Sorcery existed- doesn’t mean it does. What I wish or beleive changes no part of reality.

          (Well, except for what I wish was real. That /is/ influenced by what I wish was real.)

        7. vonnegut

          I love your av for this comment.

        8. begbert2

          I’d like to be *able* to believe in fantastic fun things that don’t exist; unfortunately I don’t have control over what I believe. I’m not mentally capable of forcing myself to believe things that fly counter to all evidence and reality. (A problem that probably stems from not taking enough drugs or religion in my youth.)

          So, sadly, as a rational adult I must settle for awesome real things to admire, like the entertainment value of modern cartoon or the engineering of a modern transformer.

        9. tom

          Naw, I take a lot of drugs, and I still don’t believe in shit that flies counter to all evidence and reality.

        10. Thomas Wrobel

          Believing a one-horned horse existed isn’t a stretch. Almost all species die without a trace.
          The “magic” part though…

        11. QD

          The translation of the word as “unicorn” is just legit terrible. I think it goes back to the vulgate which is not today held in high esteem as far as accurate translations go. The real answer is that we have absolutely no idea what the Hebrew word means, it’s been lost. Just as likely it referred to some other equally silly mythic animal, but to claim that the ancient Hebrews believed in European unicorns is just really ignorant.

          My favorite creationist argument is that it refers to TRICERATOPS.

        12. Kryss LaBryn

          I’m still pulling for it to be a misinterpretation of the description of a rhinoceros, which I thought was a pretty widely-accepted origin for unicorns–something like a big horse but with cloven feet (which I’m thinking toes can be loosely interpreted as if you aren’t that close), but with a tail like a donkey’s, a big horn on its head, and really bad-tempered and it will trample you to death if you don’t have a virgin to subdue it? Sounds pretty bang-on to me, albeit the hunting method is likely to just lead to a lot of pancaked virgins; but they’ve always been considered sort of magical; there’s areas right now that believe unprotected sex with a virgin will cure AIDS.

          Poor virgins. Please, won’t someone think of the virgins!

        13. vonnegut

          After much contemplation, there is no way to respond with ” *I* am thinking of the virgins!” without being creepy.

        14. Aljash

          But, I /am/ thinking of the virgins

        15. Robin

          I am thinking of the virgins.

        16. Emily

          To be fair, having a triceratops plow your fields would be awesome.

        17. HMRC4EVR

          in all the above posts, replace Unicorn with Unicron.

        18. Evil Midnight Lurker

          A team of triceratops is even better. Earthshaker Plow FTW!
          http://kingofdragonpass.wikia.com/wiki/Earthshaker_Plow_Team

    2. Yotomoe

      Kernenator. We need you.

      1. The Candyman

        *Flashes the condom signal*

    3. Plasma Mongoose

      A fetish like that is a real rarity. ^_^

      1. jatman18

        haha i see what you did there!!^^b

        1. Doctor_Who

          Took me a minute. Then I ಠ_ಠ.

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

        3. Opus the Poet

          Now Y’see, the problem with the comments section on this comic is there are just so many media that can be references all the way back to Rough ‘n’ Reddy and “Hercules and the Magic Ring” that figuring out subtle puns takes forever even with the more recent media…

      2. Rex Hondo

        Away! And take your clopping jokes with you!

    4. Bill

      According to legend, only a female virgin can calm and domesticate a unicorn.  That is why, in the Dumbiverse, we need to keep Joyce chaste, naive, and unsullied — so that if there *ARE* in fact unicorns, we will have someone capable of dealing with them.

      1. HMRC4EVR

        Virgin Sentai Uniranger?

      2. John

        I’m pretty sure Amber’s still got her V-card, if only due to technical difficulties with her attempts to turn it in to date. Forget Joyce… Amazi-Girl on a unicorn.

        Or, if “unicorn” really means “triceratops”, I’m betting Dina’s a virgin.

        1. Opus the Poet

          Given her crippling shyness around males that is an unfair bet.

  3. takashid

    oh joyce

  4. Mr K

    Sarah can’t get over her fetish for girls in Hoodie Dresses.

  5. Yotomoe

    30 years later Joyce suddenly gets it and blushes intensely*

    1. Jay Eff

      I hope she has pearls by then.
      So she can clutch ’em.

    2. Leonou

      Then, she turns around, opens her drower and says “Dorothy, my dear ? I’m feeling playfull right now.”
      In the bed behind her, a half-awake dorothy turns her head and smiles when she sees the toy Joyce has taken from the drawer…

      1. DSL

        “Optimus Dex,” the latest action figure collectible from the Transformers-Monkey Master crossover series …

        1. begbert2

          I would have thought that ‘Optimus Master’ would have been the more obvious mashup. Or are you one of those Alien Not Munkee types?

  6. Tunaro

    And now I’m gonna be thinking of dildo unicorns all night. Way to fucking go Willis, I hope you’re happy.

    1. TPman

      Somehow I think he is.

    2. N0083rP00F

      Better than a http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2012/120/5/e/raging_killer_chainsaw_unicorn___t_shirt_design_by_hyshinara-d4y2lwj.jpg

  7. Wonder Wig

    But… but Joyce…. you could be a strap-on unicorn…

    1. Giw

      Does that count as giving head?

    2. Giw again

      Look at that avatar of user Kernanator

    3. Salmo

      Christopher Durang’s play “Titanic” has a very funny bit involving a person playing with a strap-on while no one’s paying attention to them. The background dialogue goes “I’m a unicorn! Now I’m Cyrano de Bergerac!”

  8. Super Duper

    As a gay man, I must say that a strap on is no replacement for a penis. Often, they are too flappy, too long, or too cold. In addition, you can’t suck them, and they don’t give off the same… satisfying end during anal sex.

    1. Yotomoe

      NOW I KNOW! And knowing is half the battle.

    2. Plasma Mongoose

      I bet the Japanese have already created the perfect artificial cock that can make any normal human feel inadequate.

      1. Ancestral Hamster

        I’m sure you are right. However, I refuse to look for it in the Japanese eStores I occasionally shop at.

      2. Opus the Poet

        Yes, yes they have. And you can’t afford it.

    3. mudder

      As a man married to a woman, I must say that a strapon is way better than a total lack of anal stimulation. For those unable / unwilling to have sex with men, strapons are awesome.

  9. AJBulldis

    Oh my goodness panel 2 is just the cutest panel ever. Also that ponytail in general is a great look for Joyce.

    1. -Sentinel-

      The triangle smile is adorable, as usual.

  10. Ragnal

    Sarah, really. What did you expect from her, to magically understand what sex is and all it entails?

    1. Mr. Random

      That’s been my experience so far.

      1. Yotomoe

        I think I figured it out when I was 8. “Boys have a noodle and girls have a hole. Maybe we’re supposed to put this in that”

        1. Doctor_Who

          Yeah, sex ed was kinda of a let down. I always figured there were additional steps after “Insert tab A into slot B”.

          Most of the models I built were way harder than building a human being, it turns out.

        2. BalRog gets a "D"...and PASSES!!!

          Harder than the guy’s part. The girl’s part requires significantly more time and effort.

    2. Jon P

      Sometimes snark just has a way of coming out, even when it’s not likely to be understood.

      1. Mr. Random

        True, but not everyone can understand sarcasm right away.

      2. John

        So… Ethan could take lessons from snark?

  11. Plasma Mongoose

    Love Joyce’s ponytail.

    1. N0083rP00F

      Make me want to ask – what would Joyce look like as a MLP

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Depends on which pony she likes best but since it contains magic and magic is the product of the Devil, we may never know.

  12. TacosForever

    HOODIE DRESSES FOR EVERYONE!!!

    Billie is going to flip out when she and Joyce are wearing the same outfit.

    1. Yotomoe

      I really am going down in the world. I’m fashionably on par with JOYCE.

      1. Glacirus

        Lateral move at best…

  13. Valerie

    She is super-cute with her hair up! 😀 I APPROVE.

    (Also, I wanted to say that I had a customer today named Joyce Willis. Obviously, I thought of this comic.)

    1. Catriona

      I was thinking the same thing! She’s so cute today!

      1. Tobias

        I’ve been waiting for this in-comic day for weeks after seeing the previews on tumblr. Ponytail and hoodie sweater, yesss.

  14. Shrugs

    They make strap-ons that fit over your head.

    I mean, so I’ve heard.

    *cough*

    1. JAD

      You’ve actually seen something arguably similar in DoA:

      http://www.dumbingofage.com/2011/comic/book-1/04-the-bechdel-test/late/

  15. Sammie1053

    Ouch, Sarah has some serious claws.
    (As if we didn’t already know that)2

  16. licoricepencil

    I want this dress in real life.

  17. Giant Speck

    Oh, honey…

  18. Tanarin

    OK Joyce. Maybe when you get older we will explain it to you.

  19. MattM

    “Wear your hair just for him, cuuuuzz… You won’t get him, thinkin’ and a prayin’…”

  20. Kernanator

    HOOOOOOODIE DRESS!

    1. Doctor_Who

      I scanned the entire comments section looking for your gravatar. It’s just so damn appropriate for this strip!

      1. Kernanator

        It is the most appropriate it has ever been.

    2. TPman

      Kernanator, I hope you fulfill your obligation to comment directly below every other comment that calls attention to your gravitar.

    3. Historyman68

      I’m hearing this as COOOOOOOOOOKIE CRISP

  21. Count Dracula

    I spent longer than I would care to admit trying to figure out what Joyce’s joke meant before I realized she wasn’t joking.

  22. JessWitt

    Good Lord, Joyce looks like Molly Ringwald from Pretty in Pink.

  23. Alex Stritar

    Oh Joyce, you’re so adorably naive.

  24. Plasma Mongoose

    If Joyce wears a strap-on on her head, does that make her a uniporn or a peg-asus?

    1. Yotomoe

      No. A pegassus would be if she had giant strapon wings.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        The peg in peg-asus refers to pegging, a sexual practice in which a woman penetrates a man’s ‘backdoor’ with a strap-on.

        1. Yotomoe

          I don’t know why you felt you had to tell me that or how what I said doesn’t imply that the dildo wings would not indeed be used for pegging.
          (yes, I got your pun!)

    2. Historyman68

      Peg-ass-us?

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Even better(or worse). 🙂

  25. Yotomoe

    Joyce bought it a size too big just to do the sleeve thing. Joyce is weaponizing her cuteness.

    1. David

      I hope you are not talking about the strap-on.

  26. Mr. L. Shade

    Hey Mr. Drummer Man….can I have a rimshot please?
    “Ba-dum”
    Thankkkk Yooooou!

    1. Doctor_Who

      Here.

      1. Iceholder

        Don’t forget the sound.

    2. Roborat

      Considering the general theme of the comments today, you might want to reconsider asking for a rimshot.

  27. Kamino Neko

    *cackles at Joyce’s line, then dies of adorable due to her appearance*

  28. Teresa

    Oh…honey…

  29. Romanticide

    Pity Joyce is using her typical Joyce aproach to get Sarah new clothes, the colors she picked are very pretty and go extremely well with the purple bandana Sarah is wearing right now. XD

  30. The Candyman

    Joyce reminds me of a prairie dog in the last panel. It’s probably the hands.

    1. UnspeakableAnger

      Prairie dogs get run over a lot out here doing that pose here in the street.

      Unfortunately, Willis said nobody dies in this comic.

  31. Kernanator

    Stop it, Joyce.

    You have a ponytail and a hoodie dress. Stop being so innocently adorable.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      All she needs now is some glasses and the moe would reach critical mass.

      1. Doctor_Who

        But she doesn’t need glasses! Wearing them would make it hard to see straight, and then she would be clumsy, and then the Moeness would reach critical levels and Joyce would explode.

        1. Yotomoe

          If she has trouble seeing straight then it won’t affect her ability to see Ethan at all!

        2. AgentKeen

          And that brings us back to strap-on.

      2. Tom Speelman

        You mean, a category Clannad moenado? MY GOD

        1. ninja_jesus

          The concept of a “moenado” sounds so dangerously moe that I can’t believe no one has ever made a photoshopped image of a tornado full of moe anime characters!

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          Stop giving Sy-Fy ideas. 😛

  32. BlackIo

    If I were in Sarah’s shoes, I might also have serious reservations about wearing clothes picked out by somebody who doesn’t seem to be able to size sleeves.

    1. MeHael

      No problem, tank tops are sleeveless!

    2. Kamino Neko

      What are you talking about? Those sleeves are the perfect length.

    3. David

      Well, the sleeves are a bit short, but that way she still has the option to roll them up reasonably inconspicuously in case Ethan is not into straightjacket play.

  33. Darwin

    Oh Joyce. Your wacky inability to understand certain aspects of sexuality fills me with laughter.

  34. ridtom

      I thought it was a gay joke actually.

  35. NF

    Okay, this is it. This is the fucking pinnacle. Dumbing of Age has reached enlightenment.

  36. Emoroffle

    I hope she doesn’t google it.

  37. Mr. Random

    You know, I’m wondering where Ninja Rick is right now. We’ve established most of the prominent crew of SP!, but we’re still missing some of the new ones, and some of the old ones.
    Will they show up next semester?
    What will happen to them?

    And Willis is drawing new character models.

    Who is he drawing?
    Who is he drawing?
    Who is he drawing?
    WHO IS HE DRAWING!?!?!?!?!?!

    That is all.

    1. Kerry

      From the preview pic, looks like Malaya.

      1. Mr. Random

        Well that was anti-climatic.

      2. John

        And, zomg, “Carla”!

        Awesomeness.

  38. Fnord

    To paraphrase Joe’s favorite movie, “You are literally too naive to insult.”

  39. Plasma Mongoose

    Joyce: now with strap-on.

    http://i59.tinypic.com/9sdvf6.jpg

    1. Regalli

      Because of COURSE the condom cap returns. Thank you, Plasma.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Condom caps never go out of style.

  40. Jack Faire

    Well at least Joyce knows it’s over her head

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Also below the belt.

    2. Heavensrun

      Dammit, I knew I should’ve searched the page before posting that comment. <_<

  41. SilverArrowArtemis

    Joyce, your cluelessness and naiveté makes me look like The Fonz in comparison. (not to be confused with Faz)

  42. Brolo

    Willis, can the updos stay forever?

  43. AgentKeen

    See, I had the opposite problem and couldn’t figure out the innocent way Joyce was interpreting that for a bit.

  44. newllend

    I wonder how she thinks a condam works?

  45. Barf Ninjason

    Sarah! Show her on the internet! A strap-on I mean!

    1. Greenygal

      I don’t think Sarah would bother.

      This strikes me as a job for Mike.

      1. John

        Mike wouldn’t just show her; he’d manipulate her into searching it herself. Mike never just hurts people when he can arrange for them to hurt themselves instead. It’s not only more effective, but that way they’re pissed at themselves instead of him, so it’s like a two-for-one sale in the hurt department.

  46. Idon'tcarenomore

    I still love Sarah.
    And yeah, that is the height of cute for Joyce…just when you think the adorable factor has maxed out….

  47. Idon'tcarenomore

    Yotomoe, your new gravatar reminds me of Miley Cyrus, for some reason, 🙂

  48. Kerry

    oh my god how is joyce that cute

  49. Saru

    First she’s wearing hoodies and putting her hair in a ponytail, but what’s next. It’s a slippery slope to premarital hanky-panky! Premarital hanky-panky!!!

    1. Leonou

      Okay slow down a bit on the Wishful thinking.
      There will be a lot of premarital Heavy-Petting before we get to the Hanky-Panky part.

      1. Saru

        Slippery slope!!!

      2. David

        With Joyce, “Heavy-Petting” will likely involve an obese rabbit.

        1. The Phantom's Belch

          Some of the comments are more hilarious than the comic itself. The above one is a case in point. 🙂

        2. Roborat

          Yes, I agree. Sir Willis attracts an interesting, witty fandom. He has one of the best webcomic forums I have run across.

  50. Raibean

    everyone knows dresses are one step closer to premarital hanky panky

  51. Bilfred

    That was amazing.

  52. JoeMerl

    Now Sarah will invent a game where she tries to see how many sex jokes she can make around Joyce before she catches on.

  53. Jimbo

    oh my god Joyce is so cute in this!

  54. Daryl'sHuntress

    flappy sleeves.

  55. AY

    I didn’t understand this for a long time and my boyfriend had to explain the joke. Turns out I was giving Joyce too much credit.

  56. Baker

    Something just went over her head alright

  57. leadsynth

    Wait, how do we KNOW it’s a hoodie DRESS? It could just be a hoodie, right? I mean, I hope it’s a dress, but all we can see is the top right now.

    1. David Willis

      http://dumbingofage.tumblr.com/post/67319163076/every-dumbing-of-age-character-in-a-hoodie-dress

      1. leadsynth

        Thanks! I obviously missed that. I feel just as naive as Joyce.

    2. leadsynth

      I suppose Joyce would be too modest to wear her new Monkey Master leggings with just a regular hoodie that didn’t cover her bum.

      1. David Willis

        Part of the reason it’s oversized is so that it covers more of her legs, so, yeah, actually!

      2. Reepicheep-chan

        I would like to think it is less a matter of modesty and more a matter of good fashion sense.

          “good fashion sense” only appears on the right side of these panels.

        2. Reepicheep-chan

          Eh, think what you want, but I think she looks adorbs.

        3. leadsynth

          Joyce is probably better known for her modesty than for her good fashion sense. But this outfit accomplishes both, so yay!

  58. Nono

    Spoilers! Sarah caves and wears the outfit, sometime in April.

    The Dumbing of Age Tumblr had spoken!

    1. Greenygal

      Oooh!

      Having gone and tracked the post down, my reactions:
      1) That tank top is even skimpier than it looked, but it’s irrelevant since it’s going over a larger shirt.
      2) On the other hand, I’m amazed Joyce was able to buy those short-shorts without bursting into flames.
      3) Sarah would probably look quite attractive in the outfit if her body language was not screaming “I am deeply uncomfortable, help!”
      4) Joyce’s expression is basically the best thing ever.

      1. John

        I love Joyce’s, “Joyce N. Brown, Soooper Genius!” expression in that preview panel.

      2. tom

        3) Sarah would probably look quite attractive in the outfit if her body language was not screaming “I am deeply uncomfortable, help!”

        What? Her body language screams “I am deeply uncomfortable in these clothes, help!” If I was in this comic universe, I’d want to help Sarah with that discomfort as quickly as possible.

    Well -something- went over her head.

    1. Cheryl

      Besides her shirt.

      1. StClair

        Took a while, but I finally got to this comment.
        (Which means I can’t say it myself. Damnit.)

    2. Subject HORNET

      Agreed

  60. Coco

    Joyce pegging Ethan would be hot. Too bad it’ll never happen.

    1. MrMyerst

      Hmmm…
      Ethan performs a lack of sex act (And awkward pain ensues)?
      Or:
      Joyce attempts a very vanilla sex act (And teary guilt trip ensues)?

      Either in comic, or on slipshine, it would be the pure definition of disaster porn*, and raise the medium to whole new heights of Willisian drama bombing.
      Yeah. This is gunna happen 😛

      *Sorry for the bad pun. 😛

  61. CianM1301

    *crickets chirping*

  62. AdInfinitumSpero

    So, today in the store I saw a few hoodie dresses for the first time in person, not only that but frozen came on the radio complete with a female coworker singing along with it. I’m fairly certain if there is an author of all this they’ve been cribbing notes from Willis…

  63. Glacirus

    i’m surprised by one thing only…no sweater vest over the hoodie dress.
    granted it’d be a lot of heavy layers, but its Joyce…sweater vests are needed.

  64. FinalValkyrie

    This is my new favorite joke.

    Ever.

  65. Jimmy

    Is Sarah really surprised that Joyce has no idea what she’s talking about?

  66. Robert

    Woah! Ignore the ponytail poof and Joyce looks like She could be a tiny little Leslie!

  67. Kschenke

    the fact that the sleeves are too long just makes that last panel perfect

  68. Jon_Sered

    I can see it in my head.
    Joyce, Ethan, a strap-on.
    A new Slipshine comic, yessss!

  69. LordHaw

    It’s been said earlier, but Joyce really is super-cute with the ponytail and the hoodie dress…and her naive innocence.

    And the last panel is just awesome!

  70. Makkabee

    Over her head indeed.

  71. 6Qubed

    Okay, Joyce. Joyce? This is very important. You now have a hoodie with extra long sleeves.

    YOU HAVE TO DO THE SLEEVES THING.

  72. Tenn

    I’m not sure what Joyce thought she meant?

    1. Jason

      A strap-on dress. A dress that straps on.

  73. a4lbi

    she should keep this new look, doe.

  74. Xartarin

    Is there a “went over my head” joke somewhere in it.

  75. DownsofFire

    Apparently this has been said before, but I gotta say Joyce looks so god damned hot in a pony tail. It’s just like Tomoko from Watamote. I don’t know why, but with them, pony tails are just hot. Oh god, I’m turning into Kyon frmo The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Jesus Christ that’s 3 series I’ve used here.

  76. Arkadi

    QUICK SARA PAT JOYCE’S HEAD

  77. StClair

    Makeover, Makeover

  78. Roborat

    And as a nice bonus, that hoodie dress can double as a straight jacket.

  79. anxiouslyAntic

    I feel like the fourth panel really sums up their dynamic

  80. Bernadotte

    This is actually the first time I honestly believe that Joyce is looking cute

  81. pendrake

    Ah the comedic silence gag… A time-tested, but often good for a laugh, technique. 🙂

    A shy girl I used to be with was very much like that, wearing overlong sleeves and hoods to “hide” inside of when socially afraid/flustered. It does have the (generally un-intentional) draw-in effect of “damn, that’s cute” on many guys.

    {Sadly, the shy girl and I had to separate due to her family having moved away, but have remained in fairly consistent contact with one another to this day.}

  82. bruhcomeon

    The only thing going over her head is Sarah’s Joke.

    1. motorfirebox

      Wait… how did she get the sweater on, then?

  83. Bilfred

    I never thought that Joyce coudl be cuter.

  84. Yet-One-More-Idiot

    Aww Joycey, you just get ever more cuter every time you open your mouth! :3

  85. Darnel

    Don’t EXPLAIN IT TO HER PLEASE>

  86. Ryan Balis

    Joyce is super cute <3

  87. mistrali

    I don’t get Joyce’s reply. What does she think Sarah meant, and what does fitting over her head have to do with anything?

    1. Jason

      She thought Sarah was talking about some kind of dress that you strap on. She doesn’t know anything about dildoes. She replied that her hoodie dress just fits over her head.

  88. Evan

    I always imagine Joyce with Starfire’s voice ala Teen Titans.

  89. NF

    The timing in this strip still makes me laugh.
