    noPANCAKES

    1. Zababcd

      Pancakes are infinitely better than waffles or ham. Well, I’m vegetarian, so ham was ruled out anyway. But still pancakes.

      By the way, snoring is normally a continuous thing. So if she waits long enough, the ‘choice’ is going to be ham.

      1. MontyPla

        Fools! Waffles are the higher-evolved form of pancakes. THEY HAVE CUPS FOR THE SYRUP.

        1. Rex Hondo

          Heheh… Amber has cups for syrup…

        2. Rex Hondo

          Hrm… I’m starting to think that with all the overtime I’ve been picking up, it’s been a little too long since I’ve “spent some time” with my wife…

        3. Blob Marley

          I don’t have a wife, but I can always tell it’s been too long since I’ve had someone to “spend some time with” because my jokes get progressively raunchier.

        4. Rex Hondo

          That, and my PSL gets progressively worse…

        5. waldosan

          it is absurdly worse when you’ve never done it before, you will never ever achieve this level of raunch in this lifetime again…

        6. ProjectXa3

          Yeah, I’d say so.

        7. ryan

          that sounds good on paper, but every time i have waffles i feel compelled to equally butter and syrup each square. and if you’ve never done it before, let me tell you it takes too damn long. waffles just aren’t worth it to me.

        8. The E-man

          SAME HERE. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE! *hugzorz*!

        9. Professor Zoot

          Waffles are not responsible for OCD!!! (Chips and salsa are responsible for OCD . . .)

      2. Nezumi

        Who would prefer pancakes to Waffles? Some kind of mutant pancake monster?

  2. Kurai Seraphim

    Somebody’s getting waffles with ham on top.

    1. MontyPla

      That sounds delicious.

      1. marr

        As long as it comes with a fried egg too.

        1. Kryss LaBryn

          And Hollandaise. And strawberries.

    2. Kurai Seraphim

      Perfect time for the Galasso chef picture.

  3. Boringamus

    …How many times for pancakes?

    1. TaZZerath

      Thrice!

    2. fellixe

      And what is the snore code for omelette? Or is it more of a yawn and stretch thingy?

      1. Wandering Meme

        that code is: *snort-snort* *breathe* *snooooooore*

      2. Blob Marley

        short-short-long long-short short-pause-short.

    3. Kallio

      Who honestly wants pancakes when they can have waffles?

      1. Boringamus

        I have to admit, that is a good point. Though I’d take bacon over waffles any day. 🙂

        1. OhHayMike

          As well you should.

        2. Michelle J Caboose

          How about… Waffles topped with bacon?

          Or… bacon-flavored waffles?

        3. Jamal K.

          Amerca: The Land of *coughfoodcough* Oppurtunity!

        4. Jamal K.

          If we can come up with monstrosities like the McGriddle and The Luther (dear god, THE LUTHER), then x-flavored waffles (or x-flavored BACON) is easy to come up with!!

        5. fellixe

          The McGriddle, with its yummy pockets of mapelized crack.

        6. Michelle J Caboose

          …

          Sweet Zombie Jesus… O_o

        7. Blob Marley

          Jesus Velociraptor Christ… that thing…

          brb, making one.

          BACON PANCAKES

          http://bacontoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/bacon-pancakes.jpg

      2. S.Yeske

        Me!! I don’t like waffles!

        I’ll take pancakes with bacon. and eggs too. Scrambled.

      3. Jetstream

        Pancakes superior…

        Waffles… inferior…

  4. JackNapier

    What if she snores three times, Dina? What then?

    1. Wandering Meme

      hot-pockets.

    2. Aizat

      Sandwiches.

    3. Just for kix

      3 = 1 + 2 = waffles + ham
      Just math really.

  5. Michael

    And what if she desires eggs?

    1. Wandering Meme

      4.5 snores. basically that last one she needs to stop mid snore…and body-slam her stuffed llama.

      1. marr

        I thought a Body slam would indicate a Grand Slam breakfast from Denny’s.

        1. Wandering Meme

          That’s after 3 snores. And mumbling about being the prophet of the second eaton…whatever that means…

  6. Leorale

    Dina is cute again!
    How would ham ever win over waffles?

    1. MichaelHaneline

      Meat > starch.
      The flesh of animalkind gives me the power to start my day. Muawahaha..

    2. Bill M.

      Again? You say that as if she stopped being cute… she is always cute.

      1. Leorale

        This is true. The ‘again’ is because every time I see her, she is being cute again.

  7. Plasma Mongoose

    I think we missed some fanservice in panel 1.

    1. David

      VERY ON PURPOSE.

      (Seriously, it is hard to draw an unsexy t-shirt-pulling-on, and I tried and failed, so there you go. Obscural.)

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        If you doing that to avoid Rule 34, it’s not going to work as well as you think it will.

        1. David

          It’s too late for Dina on Rule 34. I just wanted, for the sake of storytelling clarity, a panel of Dina putting on a shirt that wasn’t about her being half-naked.

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          Don’t think of it as half-naked, think of it as half-clothed.

        3. Wandering Meme

          why think about it at all?
          Sometimes you just gotta accept it!

        4. Wandering Meme

          what’re we talking about again?

        5. Plasma Mongoose

          UNDERPANTS!

        6. Wandering Meme

          and the risk of getting randomly Joe’d?!?

        7. Plasma Mongoose

          Why would you, of all avatars worry about a thing like that?

        8. Rex Hondo

          GAH! Perversely warped iCarly flash!

          RRRRANDOM JOEING!!!

        9. ryan

          we sittin’ in here, i’m supposed to be a franchise player, and we in here talkin’ about practice.

          how the hell am i supposed to make my teammates better by practice?

        10. Trae Dorn

          Sometimes you just get super creepy, dude.

        11. RaijinK

          So what you’re basically saying is: while the classy thing to do would be to leave the “changing” panel out entirely and just show her wearing a different shirt the next time we see her, that would have been too subtle for some of your readers and picked at as a continuity error by others.

        12. David

          …..yeah.

        13. Izzy

          Do you just like the way that reason sounds or was that your actual reasoning lol…?

        14. Gundi

          Okay this comment is hilarious. True, but hilarious.

        15. The E-man

          It totally would have. Have you ever read the comments section? We pick apart EVERYTHING.

        16. RaijinK

          To tell the truth, I started out writing it meaning to imply that Willis should give his readers more credit, but halfway through I started to agree with the reasoning. I likely would have fell into the “completely failed to notice” category myself.

        17. The E-man

          Haha truth. Me too!

        18. Thor

          Rule 34 of Dina Sarazu has already been done. By D.W. himself. In 2003. Back when he still drew noses as a continuous stroke.

        19. David

          God, that art is right here on the floor next to my chair. It ended up on the top of this stack of random art from our move, and every time I look down, I berate myself for not getting that damn thing put away or something.

      2. Animaniac

        Actually, I just thought she was so shy she had to physically drag herself into the panel/strip. (in the absence of someone else to do it for her)

        1. Zuche

          That is how I saw it as well.

        2. Roborat

          Yup, my first thought too. I even mentally added someone in the wings whispering: “Dina, your on, get out there” and shoving her into the frame.

        3. DarkVeghetta

          Same here. Felt just right for Dina.

      3. Roborat

        Ahhh, thanks for that. I was wondering what was going on in the first panel.

    2. DaveO

      Dig it!

    3. John Harmon

      Is that what she was doing? I thought she was doing some Vaudevillian thing, like she was pulling herself into the panel with her shirt.

  8. Joraiem

    Wait, but… what if she wants pancakes? Or french toast? Come on, Dina, you have to have something for french toast.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      She gets two chioces, if she wants something else, she better wake up.

      1. Wandering Meme

        Missing the point, dina…
        …
        ……..
        (whispers)…steal her wallet.

  9. Mkvenner

    Waffles with real maple syrup can not be beat.

    1. NakedDumblydore

      I respectfully disagree. I’ve never delighted in a breakfast food more glorious than pancakes with blueberry syrup.

      1. Izzy

        personally if we’re getting into flavored syrups you gotta go to iHop and get pancakes with blueberry, stawberry, and maple together

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          iHOP? Has Apple taken over International House of Pancakes nowadays?

        2. malum

          I believe you meant “international House of pancakes”.

        3. Izzy

          i feel that anything that starts with the letter i and is spoken that way should be spelt with a lowercase i over a uppercase one

        4. Jamal K.

          Pfft. A nice stack of 4 huge waffles with enough strawberry/maple syrup to make you semi-sick. (Although…. Golden Corral’s stack of country-style pancakes with their….beautiful…BEAUTIFUL Canadian maple syrup has shaken my faith in waffles far too many times. I will not give in!)

    2. S.Yeske

      Pancakes with real maple syrup, or fruit compote (apple) on top. Those are awesome. Also awesome with the French Toast.

      Pancakes will always beat waffles in my book.

      1. NakedDumblydore

        There’s a restaurant near me that makes oatmeal pancakes with peach compote. It’s amazing, but you can’t eat for the rest of the day, it’s that filling!

    3. ryan

      if you can find it, try brer rabbit syrup (but not the molasses). it’s so thick and sweet. i even bother eating pancakes or waffles if i can’t drown them in this stuff.

  10. David Herbert

    Snore three times for pony.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Ponies taste like dogfood right?

      1. Wandering Meme

        Vikings and Nord’s from “Skyrim” eat ponies… I think its a late morning snack though…

      2. Wizard

        Only if you over-cook them.

        1. Fauxlosopher

          Ask Pinkie Pie for tips on baking ponies. She makes the best cupcakes.

      3. Roborat

        I saw what you did there. Bad Plasma, no internets for you, one week!

  11. A. Colunga

    I can so totally eat both of those things right now!!! =D

  12. Wackd

    Wow.

    I did not think Dina could be any less socialized. I was wrong.

  13. MarcinMN

    You aren’t going to Waffle House are you, Dina? I hear they give donations to anti-dinosaur groups.

  14. Zap

    The lack of bacon disturbs me greatly.

  15. NakedDumblydore

    Do you like waffles?

    1. NCP19

      Yeah I like waffles! Doot doot doot doot! CAN’T WAIT TO GET A MOUTHFUL!

    2. Leorale

      Do you like pancakes?

    3. Wandering Meme

      With ice cream, strawberries, maple syrup and hot fudge…

      …a diabetics death wish. Man…I’m hungry.

    4. Fauxlosopher

      …. More than life itself…

  16. Uniqueantique

    Who dosn’t like waffles?

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Unless the waffle in question is holding ice-cream, I am not a big fan of waffles…. or ham.

      1. Wandering Meme

        BRAIN-CHILD! Waffles made of ham…

        …Nobody Copyright!!!!! IT’S MINE!!!

        1. Michelle J Caboose

          …holding ICE CREAM!

        2. Bill M.

          No Michelle… BACON ice cream!

        3. Michelle J Caboose

          [drools]

    2. Aizat

      Cake lovers, well at least the ones that I know of.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        I’m rather fond of Xmas Cakes myself.

        1. Aizat

          TV TROPES? YOU FIEND!

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          BWAHAHAHAHAH! 😀

        3. Roborat

          Hah! Your evil plan didn’t work, I was only trapped there for two hours.

      2. Michelle J Caboose

        Actually, I love cake, and I much prefer waffles over pancakes.

        I also like making cakes and waffles. Though usually not at the same time…

  17. ALostProphet

    Aww, I was hoping for more Ethan. Dina’s cut and all, but she isn”t exactly funny, you know?

    1. Thor

      We need more Dina if she’s going to end up on the beach with the others.

      Besides, she is funny, in a different way. And more Dina is always good. Leslie has appeared more times than Dina, and Dina is supposed to be one of the main cast, I believe.

      1. Freeholder

        Time for irresponsible speculation:
        I think this may be a pretty immediate transition, with Joyce, Dorothy or Walky inviting her to the beach when they run into her in the hallway. Then a beach episode, then Amber gets a short story segment where she is late for a class. This may lead to her borrowing notes from Danny and some more bait for shippers. Also, there will be drama at the beach; this ‘adventure’ will take up potential weeks of strips and DoAs drama tag is long lost, if it ever existed at all…….

        Or maybe Galasso has it.

    2. begbert2

      Oh, ‘cute’. I swear when I first read your comment I had a perplexed moment of ‘but she’s not all that muscular’.

      1. ALostProphet

        Just re-read that. Maybe that’s where she is all day?

  18. Wandering Meme

    what if she snores thrice?

  19. Kernanator

    C’mon, Dina. Everyone knows that the best breakfast is FRENCH TOAST!

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      TOASTED SAUSAGE SANDWICH

      1. Kallio

        for a nickle.

        1. Wandering Meme

          wait…WHAT sausage are we talking about here?

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          Not the ‘self-saucing’ kind if that’s what you were wondering. 😀

        3. Plasma Mongoose

          NO, for a dollar!

        4. Aizat

          And make it a foot long.

    2. Aizat

      Wrong, EGG SANDWICH is the best breakfast.

      1. Jamal K.

        With lots of cheese. And throw some bacon on there!

    3. a99steaksauce

      I would have to say the breakfast burritos served at my college.

    4. Rex Hondo

      YEAH TOAST!!

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_aHkrjPo7A

  20. Pivitor

    Hey Willis, what do we have to do to get Dina on the cast page? She’s done a helluva lot more than Becky and possibly even Ethan.

    1. David

      Remind me that she’s not on it, which is something I meant to fix long ago. Hold on.

    2. Zuche

      She’d have to petition for the position herself.

    3. Sir Robin

      She’s probably already there, but just hiding behind something

  21. Aizat

    No, bring me cake.

  22. Confuzor

    Ok, 5 snores for Lucky Charms, but 6 snores for Crunch Berries.

  23. ThatOneGuy

    I love you, Dina.

    1. ThatOneGuy

      Also, I find my name hilarious while it is set to Leslie as the picture.

  24. Rex Hondo

    Damn you, Willis! You’ve gone and induced a craving that I will not be able to sate any time soon!

    1. Rex Hondo

      Just to clarify, that’s a FOOD craving, NOT a craving for an ambiguously aged asian girl.

      1. Aizat

        Craving for ham or waffles?

        1. Rex Hondo

          BOTH! A nice thick slab of country ham with two eggs over easy and a big fresh belgian waffle with warm maple syrup and real butter. *drool*

        2. The E-man

          STOP IT. STOP IT RIGHT NOW. I started drooling in the library, which is an awkward place to drool.

  25. Cha

    …Dina is so adorable I can’t even. I want to hug her.

    1. Xi

      Agreed. Many many hugs.

  26. Xi

    Oh Dina. When I have I spare 20 bucks, I’m so buying your shirt that may or may not be about boners that you just changed out of. -cue creeper music-

  27. Wix

    This comic is 2x better for having Dina present, and 3x better for having Dina be adorable and funny at the same time.

  28. iSaidCandleja-

    Of course Dina will be delayed, causing Amber to over sleep. Time to start speculating about the consequences.

  29. Janette

    Best roommate ever.

  30. Seerow

    Who eats waffles for lunch?

    1. iSaidCandleja-

      A college kid on a meal plan. Or fans of Roscoe’s, the obvious alternative to Chik-fil-A.

    2. Rex Hondo

      Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner are all LIES perpetrated by THE MAN! There is only FOOD TIME!

      1. Michelle J Caboose

        Amen. I work nights, so breakfast is whatever I eat when I wake up in the evening, lunch is what I eat at 2 a.m., and dinner is what I eat when I get home in the morning while everyone else is rushing off to work, scarfing down whatever they managed to buy from the fascist fast-food places that don’t serve anything but “breakfast” items in the morning.

        I often have breakfast for dinner.

        1. Rex Hondo

          Likewise on nightshift. It’s always fun to explain to new dayshifters that 8am to us is like 8pm to them when my coworkers and I go and have tacos and beer after our shift.

  31. Locke

    In the first panel, she is clearly struggling with someone. Willis claims she’s pulling on a t-shirt, but I can see through such lies. Clearly this is going to crossover with the Marvel Universe, and Dina is now a Skrull.

    1. Lord Synick XXIII

      Nope. Chuck Testa.

  32. Kasamari

    Dinah is so cute (*^_^*)

  33. Deemah

    … Now I want waffles… DINA WAFFLES PLEASE!!!

    1. begbert2

      Would those be just Dina flavored waffles, or waffles made with actual bits of chopped-up Dina in them?

  34. AckAckAck(Bizarro Roz)

    Snore thrice for caramel candy.

    *Walky snore loudly three times*

  35. Tori

    Why is Dina so freakin’ cute?

    1. Zuche

      Evolutionary mechanism intended to keep her creator from killing her off in this universe.

      1. Marion Delgado

        If he kills her AGAIN after what he did last time I think he’ll definitely lose readership.

        1. Lord Synick XXIII

          The Britjas don’t exist in this universe, so I think Dina’s fine.

          Unless some crazy alien decides to start hunting alternate versions of Dina. Then she’s slightly less fine.

  36. begbert2

    That’s a very peculiar (partial) pose for anyone to be in at any point while putting on a shirt. Looks more like she’s forcibly dragging herself into frame to me. Which didn’t seem sufficiently implausible to make me doubt it, given Dina being Dina and all.

    Also, I find myself suspecting that a second reason to avoid drawing her in the final stages of changing her shirt would be to avoid showing her with her hat off.

    1. malum

      So you think she can’t change her shirt without taking off her hat?

      1. Zuche

        She can leave her hat on.

        1. madd

          Will you take off her shoes?

      2. begbert2

        It doesn’t look like it’s strapped on or anything; I didn’t actually buy one of the physical ones, but it strikes me as the type of headwear that would inevitably come off when the prior shirt is removed, at which point it wouldn’t be worth putting it back on until after the next shirt was donned. Any shot of Dina during the actual donning process would reveal her huge bald spot.

  37. Tucker

    Dina’s a trooper. It too her to 26 days before she finally decided to get food.

    Amber never told Dina what 2 not to let her sleep past. Just saying.

    It’s not wise to make cognitive leaps with the socially challenged – no matter how cute they might be about it!

  38. Lord Synick XXIII

    It just dawned on me that both girls we’ve seen Mike in a relationship with are roomies. Way to go, me. What a freaking noodle. -.-

    1. Lord Synick XXIII

      Also, didn’t Head Alien II say he’d be hunting Walkys and Joyces across the multiverse? So technically, he could barge into this one and attack the Walky and Joyce of the Dumbiverse…uh-oh.

      1. Rex Hondo

        I’m just going to have to bite the bullet and read the entire archives of all of the previous comics before the comment section on this one completely spoils everything for those, aren’t I?

        1. MLBlue

          Pretty much, but Willis didnt really want that to happen, but thats fanbases for you.

  39. Chris_Redfield7

    Now I want waffles. And ham.

  40. Crazyon

    The trick is to have all 3!

  41. Hinoron

    Did Dina just pull herself into the panel frame? ^_^

  42. Aisling

    Did Dina drag herself onto the panel..?
