    never know, Amber, they might be up to trying out strap-ons

    1. HueSatLight

      That’s some kind of sweater, right?

      1. True Survivor

        I think they are those identifying vests they strap onto seeing-eye dogs.

      2. Chaucer59

        No, I think it’s a brand of tools. Wrenches and such.

      3. Needfuldoer

        Watches, tank tops, belts, and sandals.

        Sweaters generally don’t have straps.

      4. Shadowsnail

        I think it’s that thing for turning off lamps. It has that song:
        Strap on
        Strap off
        Strap on, strap off
        The Strapper

    2. Doctor_Who

      “I’m a size six.”

      1. Clif

        Metric or Imperial?

        1. Disastroid

          You’ll have to ask a Star Wars fan if you want an Imperial strap-on

        2. StClair

          [Imperial March intensifies]

        3. Leorale

          [threatening lightsaber swooshy sounds]

        4. NGPZ

          *plays “Imperial March” on hacked muzak*

        5. GholaHalleck

          Those glow in the dark too. The giggles as the light gets brighter and dimmer *can* ruin/enhance the mood though.

    3. SmartAlec105

      Or she’ll at least use what happens as inspiration to write a gender bent version. Just gotta get creative!

  2. NGPZ

    I Double Dino Dare you to lick it Becky!

    Oh who am I kidding you’ll probably do it anyway! XD

    *plays “Mystery Kindaichi Band” on hacked muzak*

  3. Sirksome

    Be careful when you make out with snotty lovers. That’s how you BOTH get covid when only one of you went to comic con!

    1. Thag Simmons

      Oh, that’s unfortunate.

      1. Sirksome

        Oh, don’t feel bad. It happened to my brother last year. I just remember having to deal with it.

    2. Michael Steamweed

      …Yes. Yes, licking the body fluids of a recent con-goer is an _excellent_ way to contract lots of new and exciting diseases.

    3. Risky

      Crud.

      1. Ana Chronistic

        CON crud

    4. Bruno

      Just make sure to spend lots of time outside in the fresh air.

    5. NGPZ

      I literally got COVID last Friday, and still dealing with the symptoms ;-;

      1. Ana Chronistic

        aww, that sucks =(

    6. jilo

      You don’t have to make out with your snotty lover to get their covid though — spending a little time breathing the same air as they are is enough to spread it. ;_;

  4. Cholma

    We could ALL do with a low concentration of snot!

    1. Dara

      oh so very this

    2. Masumi

      Except for Becky, apparently :V

      1. Amelie Wikström

        And the first boy Dorothy kissed. Hmm maybe she paid it forward all the way to Dina?

    3. StClair

      None at all, however, can be uncomfortable.
      (Every now and then, I forget to refill my CPAP’s humidifier chamber, and wake up with dry nasal passages.)

      1. Clif

        I have to augment that with a heated hose and nasal spray before sleeping, but then my bi-pap machine operates at a high pressure.

    4. Psychie

      Lol, I am reading this comment section directly after waking up because last night my sinuses were full to bursting and while I was sleeping this morning they decided to finally drain into my stomach, post-nasal drip style, filling my stomach with gas and nearly making me vomit when I rolled over and burped. Now I can’t go back to sleep or else I’ll have to deal with that again in a couple hours since being horizontal is only going to make the build up worse, which means I had to drop my shift at work tonight since I drive for a living and two and a half hours of sleep is not nearly enough for that to be even remotely a good idea.

      1. Meagan

        Hang in there, friend.

      2. StClair

        Sympathies. I have spent many nights sitting in bed, propped up against the wall, trying to get however much ‘sleep’ I can.

  5. jeffepp

    New Becky kink unlocked.

    1. Bogeywoman

      Genuinely shocked its kink I /haven’t/ come across before

      1. Ray Radlein

        with THAT screen name?

        1. Needfuldoer

          What does snot have to do with golf?

        2. Meagan

          Not sure if it’s just a joke but for anyone who doesn’t know, ‘bogey’ is the British-ism for what Americans call ‘boogers.’ Source: Harry Potter 🙂

  6. Animedingo

    Alright so weve got joyce and amber in the closet watching dorothy and walky bang

    1. Yumi

      Lot of voyeurs in this comic, as it turns out.

    2. Doctor_Who

      Depending on whose room they do it in, I could see either Booster or Becky selling tickets.

    3. Akane

      And then Joyce will take Dorothy, while Amber will get Walky.

    4. Clif

      Works for me.

  7. Sirksome

    Just gotta say a lot of this friend group is slowly developing voyeurism kinks. Maybe Amber can watch with Joyce as all their friends bang.

    1. Nono

      Roz’s sex video made a lot of converts.

      1. True Survivor

        For a second there I thought the Roz in question was the one from Monster’s Inc. because, you know, she’s watching, alllwaysss watching.

        1. Azrael

          I’m old, so when I hear Roz I always picture the third Baliff (after Selma and Flo) from the original Night Court.

        2. Meagan

          DX that’s quite the image. Not my kink.

    2. Michael Steamweed

      We need a whole Slipshine with Amber and Joyce comparing notes, narrating who did whom and how they did it. Also commiserating on the difficulties of typing out notes one-handed (Joyce covering one eye; Amber…doing something else.)

      Amber’s got the field of getting the friends all sexing each other; Joyce has the field of getting the friends all dating each other. Together, they are a devastatingly effective matchmaker duo.

      1. Mark

        They should go to the pilot store and get a couple of kneeboards, if teens today still learn how to write with a pencil on paper.

        1. Michael Steamweed

          “Boards”? “Pencil”? “Paper”? What are these words you use?

          (is that, like, german, or something?)

      2. Mturtle7

        Just to be clear: there wouldn’t be any dirty stuff visible to the audience, correct? Literally just a dozen or so straight pages of Amber and Joyce talking to each other like sports commentators, while the orgy proceeds just off-panel?

        PERFECT. I’m in. This will be the greatest Slipshine OF ALL TIME.

        1. Meagan

          I feel like Joyce might not have the best vocabulary to describe things very well, or if she does she might not be comfortable saying things out loud. That definitely doesn’t apply to Amber though, so maybe Amber has more the descriptor role and Joyce provides the hilarious reaction faces (and sounds).

        2. Mturtle7

          Counterpoint: Joyce may not have the vocabulary to describe things WELL, but she DEFINITELY has the vocabulary to describe things HILARIOUSLY.

          E.g. “Oh…oh my gosh…is he going to put his tummy wand in her BUTT-HOLE?”

    3. Rowen Morland

      It is leaning towards “Walky is observed during a sex.” or “How I learned to finally stop worrying and love exhibitionism.”

  8. Nono

    Okay so we have:

    Into people watching: Dorothy, Dina?

    Into watching: Joyce, Amber, probably Jennifer (based on her fantasies about bisexual men making out)

    Also I’m half convinced Booster would be into it too.

    1. Reltzik

      Into being as far away from it as possible: Sarah.

      … not because it’s sex. Because it’s people.

      1. Rowen Morland

        https://xkcd.com/563/

      2. Groove

        One person is bad enough, but sex between others is 2 people at a minimum! That’s far too much hassle.

    2. Freemage

      Booster definitely would be, but would have a scale of interest where there is more interest if the sex involved is in some way scandalous or fraught. If one of the participants is cheating on their official partner, for instance, or if the two just have a hideously toxic relationship that just makes sex a bad idea, for instance, then Booster’s gonna be all-in.

    3. Mturtle7

      You’re forgetting Joe, who I seem to recall was into Roz filming it. Add him to the “into people watching” list!

  9. IntangibleMatter

    I take back what I said yesterday about finally having some drunk people I could get along with I would not be able to do so actually.

  10. Newlland(Henryvolt)

    Becky: You have a cold? No we have a cold.

    1. k

      *comrade bugs meme* OUR cold.

  11. Michael Steamweed

    Amber covers one eye with one hand.
    The other hand is typing notes.
    Amber and Joyce will compare notes later.
    Their super-secret master plan to get _everyone_ hooked up with partners is coming along nicely.
    ((maybe ‘mistress’ plan?))
    Amber handles the hormones/lust side of the hookups. Joyce handles the love sleuth/romance side.

  12. John Campbell

    Well, looks like we’ve got Amber signed up for Polymer Chain, though she’s going to have to fight Joyce for the chair.

  13. Amós Batista

    … snot, please there’s no kinky involving snot, please there’s no kinky involving snot, please there’s no kinky involving …

    1. Yumi

      Look, OBVIOUSLY there’s kink involving snot. I don’t have particular knowledge of it, but there so many kinks; for something as basic to the human body as snot to not have a kink attached to it would be weirder.

      1. NGPZ

        the alt-text also mentioned Becky craving ALL Dina’s precious bodily fluids

        FOR SCIENCE

        1. NGPZ

          (and yes, that probably does include dinosaur milk XD)

        2. Nymph

          What a horrible day to be literate.

      2. Clif

        Here you go, Amos. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Snot+fetish

        You can thank me later.

    2. Nono

      It’s snot looking good for you.

      1. StClair

        *golf clap*

    3. John Campbell

      Disturbingly, this is not the first time it’s come up.

      1. Amós Batista

        Thank. You. For reminder me for this. Again.

    4. Reltzik

      Implicit in Rule 34: If it exists, there’s a kink involving it.

      1. Reltzik

        …. also, I think that was the original Rule 41.

        1. GingerMadman

          The original rules from the Encyclopedia Dramatica:

          Rule 1: Do not talk about rules 2-33
          Rule 34: There is porn of it. No exceptions.
          Rule 35: The exception to rule #34 is the citation of rule #34.
          Rule 36: Anonymous does not forgive.
          Rule 37: There are no girls on the internet.
          Rule 38: A cat is fine too
          Rule 39: One cat leads to another.
          Rule 40: Another cat leads to zippocat.
          Rule 41: Everything is someone’s sexual fetish.
          Rule 42: It is delicious cake. You must eat it.
          Rule 43: It is a delicious trap. You must hit it.
          Rule 44: /b/ sucks today.
          Rule 45: Cock goes in here.
          Rule 46: They will not bring back Snacks.
          Rule 47: You will never have sex.
          Rule 48: ???
          Rule 49: Profit.
          Rule 50: You can not divide by zero.

        2. Reltzik

          Yup! Not the exact wording, but still the same idea.

        3. jeffepp

          Rule 01: Don’t talk about /b/
          Rule 02: DON”T TALK ABOUT /b/!

          Rule 34: If it exists, there is porn of it. No exceptions.

          All other rules and numbers are subject to change, or whatever anyone wants. Anyone who says different, whatever man. Because this is my United States of Whatever.

    DOA book 13: A H-Higher Concentration of Wang

    1. Reltzik

      DOA Book 13: I’ve Got the Bad Inherited Thoughts, Dad-Style

    2. Alan in DC

      If it doesn’t fly as a book tithe, it’s still a great name for an ’80s tribute band.

      1. Alan in DC

        Title, sted tithe. Whoops.

  15. Yotomoe

    For practice I tried to render the DOA characters names in Katakana. I’m not super good at it yet. If anyone knows japanese feel free to give me some critique.
    Katakana DOA names

    1. Taffy

      Just according to the translate thingy on Google Lens, you’ve got:

      joyce Waaki Dorotsu

      amba (Biri) Jenifa beki

      monkey [Sal] Sara Joe

      Luz [Ruth] Jina Danni

      Izan microphone Ruth [Lucy]

      Kaala Reply [Leslie] jacob

      robin Roz Jason

      mariyah Buusta Ashaa

      So, it’s mostly fine, but some of the characters’ names have interesting oddities. “Sal” being translated to “monkey” is obviously from “saru”, but I’m not sure how “Leslie” becomes “reply”. Microphone is just Mike’s full legal name of course, so I guess they don’t shorten it in Japan.

    2. Bash

      I am also learning Japanese so I wanted to look, but the link isn’t working anymore.

      1. Yotomoe

        Fixed

    3. Amós Batista

      Gotta say, pretty good.

  16. Amós Batista

    the first panel is even more frightening, when you imagine how you get old, if you will inherit all mental issues from your parents….

  17. NGPZ

    Becky will extract all of her precious bodily fluids FOR SCIENCE >:D

    gotz to get that dino DNA!!!

    1. Masumi

      Somehow the comment with your katakana naming chart disappeared? Or I’m blind. Anyway, it looks good to me!

  18. Nono

    Remember that Dorothy also emptied a sinus full of mucus into her first kiss.

    Joyce might want to examine what is it with her best friends and snotty kisses.

  19. Marvelman

    Okay, Becky, that’s not funny, it’s just gross!

    1. Francoinblanco

      No kink shaming

    2. Nymph

      It’s important to remember that humor is subjective. I thought it was hilarious tbh.

    3. Da Boy

      Here come those drunken mistakes!

    4. Lingo

      Sometimes Becky is just the female version of Walky.

  20. RocketRelm

    Looks at comic. Sighs.

    I know my duty. I know we’re all thinking it.

    https://www.dumbingofage.com/2013/comic/book-3/02-guess-whos-coming-to-galassos/tyler/

    1. Amelie Wikström

      In my headcanon, Dina is at the end of a long chain of snot kisses started by Tyler and Becky is about to indirectly drain Dorothy’s nose. Sort of like coming full circle.

      I know Dina has never swapped spit with anyone before Becky so it’s unlikely, but not entirely impossible.

  21. Steve

    Ewwww. Snot and spit are two of the things I’m most grossed out by.

  22. RassilonTDavros

    My laptop is crapping out and thus my ability to Write Comments Gud is inhibited, which is really annoying because there’s a LOT to talk about with these last two strips re:Becky

  23. RassilonTDavros

    Okay no, that Grav is NOT appropriate for this

    1. RassilonTDavros

      (This was meant to be a reply to my own comment above)

  24. Derek

    …did Dina just invite Amber to watch her and Becky have sex?

    1. Clif

      You’re paying attention. Good.

      1. Derek

        it’s not about paying attention, “hear [girlfriend] make fun noises” is not an euphemism for sex, and it’s a weird thing to say; hence why I wanted clarification

    2. Mturtle7

      In the interest of due caution, she *is* pretty drunk. It’s possible she will regret saying this later. Itsalsopossibleshewontthough-

  25. Chaucer59

    Can honestly say I’ve clever wanted to lick a booger off anyone’s face.

  26. Kim

    I can’t remember… when/who did Amber shove?

    1. JA

      Also trying to remember. Could’ve shoved Walky during the time-skip, maybe.

      1. Bash

        I think she might have shoved him at Halloween but that is just a guess.

    2. Nymph

      She pushed Walky into a table when he was going full “mike is alive and in witness protection” conspiracy theory at the Halloween party.

  27. Risky

    The concentration of new and exciting sexual/romantic experimentation in this comic is starting to approach the level I am familiar with from reed college. Still outside the event horizon, but getting there.

  28. AbacusWizard

    becky no

  29. Bruno

    who hasn’t shoved walky. get real

    1. Clif

      Fair, but the point is, it’s a pattern. Many people haven’t shoved Danny.

      Now I’m going to have to go back and see if she shoved Sal during the fight.

      1. Meagan

        Did Amber shove Danny?

  30. DashWallkick

    Dina saying Amber can listen to her and Becky have sex and Amber just going “no, no…it needs boys” is such a perfect drunken conversation for them to have.

    1. Clif

      Actually, she didn’t specify listen; she specified stay.

  31. Hazel

    Looks like the unanticipated consequences of Halloween are still hitting.

  32. Hazel

    I thought something seemed different about the page, turns out my adblocker updated or something and had turned off the whitelist :/

  33. GUIGUI

    What’s up with the youth those days, wanting to be watched doing the nasty?

    1. Dante

      Panopticon trainees, raised by the modern internet

    2. Da Boy

      I mean, are you surprised? They put out their face, address and social security number on social media, might as well do some sexy exhibitionism while they are at it.

    3. Nymph

      A) That’s not a new phenomenon, voyeurism and exhibitionism have been very popular for a very long time.

      B) Why do you care?

      C) These aren’t “the youth” they’re caricatures of people. In a comic. Exaggerated for comedic effect.

      D) That does seem so much like “wants to be watched” as it does “is open to being watched” which is a subtle difference, I’ll admit.

  34. Dante

    LGBTQ things happening to Amber keep being mentioned and we’re now crossing the point where it’s yes-or-yes added to the Chekhov’s Armory. Someone amidst the Commentariat had been proposing a Something with Booster? I kinda see it.

    So far we’re here like

    1- Personal tragedies as conversation starters
    2- Mental health and sexual TMI convos
    3- Interlocked interpersonal drama powder kegs
    4- Way more booze than snacks or mixers

    Yeah, this is a college party proper. I’m disappointed though, how come none of these kids actually has self-appointed themselves as a dj?

    1. eh, whatever

      DJ? Wasn’t that a 1990s thing?

      1. darkoneko

        how dare you

    2. NGPZ

      Yeah, at the very least they can dim the lights and not. XD

  35. Bobcat

    Becky, not gonna judge, but… EW.

    1. Michael Steamweed

      Exactly. 😛

  36. Taffy

    Oh, gods forbid somebody get shoved a little. Kids these days and their not wanting to be manhandled for no reason.

    1. Da Boy

      But who’s going to pay for fixing those weak ass walls when someone gets put through one?

      1. Taffy

        Not my problem. If you want me to bother thinking about that, my fee is $100 per concern.

  37. ValdVin

    Amber has orbiting squeans. Is that a first in DofA?

    1. Owlmirror

      I just noticed that they all seem to have somewhat personalized boozles, possible indicating how inebriated they are.

      Becky has little circles and dots.
      Dina has dots, circles and little x marks (…that allergic reaction).
      Amber is the only one with circles, dots, and orbits, possibly indicating dizziness.
      Looking back….
      I see that Danny has little circles and dots.
      Ethan has a mix of little dots and little circles.
      Asher only has little dots (mild inebriation?)
      Sal has lots of little circles.

      I’d look for more but I don’t have time.

      1. NGPZ

        LOL, each character has their own unique drunken indicators akin to One Piece Laughter Styles XD

        1. Da Boy

          …
          Dina going to sea to form her own Dinosaur Pirate crew like she is a cute little Kaido.

        2. NGPZ

          “Be gay, do piracy!”

  38. Pocky

    do you really love your gf if you won’t eat her boogers? /s

  39. darkoneko

    please, just take my handkerchief
    (and wow that word is a pain to write)

  40. WAhydrohead

    ? Every booger is sacred ?

  41. Stephen Nedland

    Are any of the current heterol couples open to voyeurism? I think Joe, before hooking up with Joyce, would have been more than happy, to have a chic, watch him bang another chic, in the off chance she gets super turned on, and joins. This current version, not so much.

  42. Insanenoodlyguy

    Oh girl, that’s not a “Still would do it.” thats… that’s a fetish.

  43. a/snow/mous/e

    Yeah, intrusive thoughts are something that can give you a lot of self-doubt, but you can definitely learn to manage them if you can remember that uncontrolled thoughts don’t make you a bad person.

    1. a/snow/mous/e

      (But obviously that takes time and is probably harder if you’ve gone through a lot of trauma. I don’t want to minimize Amber’s concerns, I just want to say that by itself it’s not as big a deal as she might think.)

  44. Amós Batista

    I can relate to Dina, but I got her nose problem while sober. (I’m looking you, rhinitis)

  45. APersonAmI

    REALLY? *Nobody* commenting on what Dina said in this strip??

    Okay then:

    Aww. That’s such a good descriptor for Dina’s desire. “The next time I want to hear her make the fun noises”, indeed.

    1. Da Boy

      It reminds me that one yuri doujin by Comaku where a girl invited two lesbians to make love on her bed while she stayed under it and listened because she had a fetish for sexy sounds.

  46. Adept

    This is an excellent drunk conversation. I approve.

  47. Juanoku

    Aw that’s sweet. And kinda really gross
