  1. addude

    that is a good show

    1. Tunasammich

      Indeed! 😀

    2. baroncognito

      Yeah, they had me when they quoted The Tick.

      “Not baked goods, baked BADS!”

      1. Mirenheart

        Pinkie Pie is what got me in. All the references is what made me stay.

        1. Semysane

          I have no idea what you’re talking about.

        2. Arroh Kujati

          Made all the funnier by your pic.

        3. Crazy Dina

          One nickle says she generated that email just to use that picture on this forum.

        4. Captain Patch

          For me it was Fluttershy that got me started and the multitude of great sight gags that made me stay. Also, Winter Wrap-Up.

        5. Sonzilber

          The first episode I watched was Winter Wrap-up. Now I’m addicted to the show and the songs

    3. invisiblemoose

      AND it gets her vagina’s attention.

      1. dutchguy

        I personally don”t like MLP:FIM. I like do the character concepts though especially Pinkie and Fluttershy

    4. DarkVeghetta

      Danny, I finally have a second reason to like you.

  2. Gnoka

    All these?

    1. dchorror

      Same thought. How many gay guys has she dated?

      1. Null Set

        Ethan and Mike, obviously.

        1. Rodrigo

          Mike is not gay, he is a force of nature, he doesn’t count.

        2. Derik

          Hmm… does this mean Mike and Ethan are together in this continuity?

        3. Meridian

          Mike is less a person, and more an event. He happens to people.

        4. Sambo

          That comment could not be more perfect

        5. Shift

          Mike isn’t gay or straight. He’s whatever you DON’T want him to be remember?

      2. David Herbert

        I’m thinking she thinks Danny’s gay as well.

        1. mrgalvaprime

          Im wondering, are gaydars set off by bisexuals?

  3. cruncher3019

    I’m looking forward to the DannyxAmber fan porn.

    1. DeWeese07

      involving all the ponies that get her vaginas attention?

      and then there’s sodomuffun to consider… and, well… I’ll let less tactful people take over on that point

      1. Anon

        Was Sadomuffun a Unicorn pony? I can’t remember. It makes a huge difference.

        1. Undrave

          No she was just an Earth Pony.

      2. Baf

        F****** is magic!

        1. arjay2813

          i want that on a shirt. with or without the stars

        2. George

          Agreed. With Sodomuffin on the back, preferably.

        3. Warpshade

          Either that or “Friendship (with benefits) is magic!”

        4. Hannover Fist

          With a picture of Fluttershy and Big Macintosh (we all know he’s the village bicycle). Or maybe Rainbow Dash and Applejack.

        5. arjay2813

          sodomuffin and “Friendship (with benefits) is magic!” on the back. =D

    2. Daisy

      Willis can do one better than your non-canonical “fan” porn :’)

  4. DeWeese07

    my little pony gets her vaginas attention… perhaps it is SHE who is closeted?!? WHAT A TWIST!

    1. iSaidCandleja-

      That’s exactly what I was thinking until I realized her orientation has nothing to do with pony subtext. Everyone in this comci is gay.

      1. Rikushadow5

        Except Ethan. That boy’s clearly as straight as a board. Maybe.

  5. The Sound Defense

    Commence a flood of bronies.

  6. dchorror

    I honestly like that she’s being upfront about this. I guess it makes up for any secrets she may or may not be keeping.

    1. Daibhid C

      Amber has secrets? That’s silly.

      Unless … Do you think she knows Ultra-Car is Amazi-Girl?

      1. Henry

        That’s pretty obvious. In past strips, you could see it on her FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCE

  7. DeWeese07

    one more panel featuring him doing walky’s squished face at her vagina comment would have been hilarious.

    1. Haituri

      Someone should do this. I’m too lazy.

  8. Confuzor

    So…Blonde Amber connected to Walky by the Head Alien cartoon. And Brunette Dorothy is connected by her vagina’s attention to My Little Pony?

    I need to live in the Dumbiverse to get some chicks…

    1. Confuzor

      I forgot to add “to Danny” in there.

    2. Seerow

      If it is geeky and Willis likes it, in the universe he controls, women swoon for it.

      It is known.

      1. Kavonde

        It is known.

        1. MeHael

          So say we all.

        2. NF

          Amen.

        3. Rowen Morland

          Ni

        4. Frisco

          17 Dollars!

        5. Henry

          A nickel.

  9. beeftony

    Huh, whadd’ya know, I called it. Probably a lucky guess.

  10. Vivvav

    Who is Danny’s favorite pony?

    1. Lee

      I’m thinkin’ he’s an Applejack kinda guy.

      1. Undrave

        But he’s got a thing for nerdy girls, I’m thinking he’s more of a Twilight Sparkle fan. Either way he prefer the ones who are the ‘straight guy’ in the comedic routines :p

        1. JK9000

          No doubt, Fluttershy is his waifu.

        2. MM

          Sounds like a poll topic to me…

  11. Brasca1

    I am so waiting for the day when Amber attends the same Ponies convention as Something Positive’s Vanessa Cubbins. I want to see who is crazier.

    1. George

      That would be among the greatest crossovers of all time.

      1. Tev

        B… but… but…
        S*P has already crossed over with Shortpacked!

        MULTIVERSAL IMPLOSION

        1. Brasca1

          I know, but aside from Roz getting one of Choo-choo Bear’s spawn and giving him to Leslie the interaction has been limited. What I’d love to see is something legendary.

    2. Mally

      It would be interesting to see. I started to mention that Vanessa doesn’t care for FIM… but then I realized, they don’t specify which gen of MLP is being enjoyed, so…Possibilities.

  12. arjay2813

    this is going to be an interesting relationship. my little ponies and spiderman movie kisses (although i suppose it would be amazi-girl kisses)

    something about registered trademarks should go here, but idc

  13. Croaxleigh

    I hope that this works out and develops into something awesome. Both characters could use a positive romantic experience, and there’s also the reverse Spider-man/Mary Jane aspect would be the less-emotionally-abusive mirror to Sal and Danny in the Walkyverse.

    Also, we could then call him Danny Jane.

    1. SolegitRR

      I don’t know, I kind of liked the crazy reverse-batman romance thing Danny and Sal had in It’s Walky. I mean it was horribly destructive, sure…but absolutely hilarious at the same time….

    2. Snail

      We can call him that regardless.

      1. Croaxleigh

        Yay!

  14. RVK

    moar luv. Seriously these past few strips have been making me happy. XD Thank you, Mr. Willis.

    So much of the CUTES they have! They have all the cutes?

    >_>

  15. Xartarin

    Most awkward conversation had in the middle of class ever.

    That blond guy with the glasses in the back doesn’t help. His stare….

    1. NF

      His glasses are staring into my soul!!!

    2. Björn

      Took the words right out of my mouth.

      1. Bill M.

        It must’ve been when you were kissing me…

    3. Jackson

      Amber’s really layin’ it all out on the table.

      1. agentksilver

        To be fair, they’re both rebounds for each other. In my experience, rebounds do put it all out in the open.

        1. Jackson

          Never said it was a bad thing. 🙂

  16. Plasma Mongoose

    His BUTT + her GAYDAR + PONIES + her VAGINA =
    Danny is going to end up as the meat in a twisted sandwich!

    1. NF

      Which is…good?

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Depends on who is the other ‘slice of bread’ doesn’t it?

        1. Anon

          Yikes.

          You, madam, are truly frightening.

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          I am almost disturbed by how happy that makes me feel… ALMOST! >:D

        3. Kirby

          I think I might love you. XD

          *goes to fetch his chainsaws*

  17. Beachfox

    No matter what universe he’s in, Danny keeps winding up with superheroes.

    Ethan must be so jealous.

    1. Rikushadow5

      Billie counts as a Superhero? I GUESS you could say she’s a super-reporter…

  18. Aizat

    Please don’t break them up.

  19. Aizat

    Is it just me or Amber’s face in panel 2 just looks adorable?

    1. Kide

      It is. In a sad/cute way. Damn it to hell these two better get together.

      MAY get a reciprocal interest my ASS.

  20. milk experiment

    I have to say, I like how forthright and self-possessed DOA!Amber is. I guess you would have to be pretty confident to run around at night in a bright yellow jumpsuit, kicking asses for justice.

    1. |Agent

      She is immune to criticism.

      1. Engelfire

        Indeed.

  21. shoeboxjeddy

    Amber can’t seem to put down the gaming device even to pre-flirt huh? Wonder if she releases her death grip during, uh, consummation as she puts it.

    1. Ridureyu

      Nope.

      “Yay, I got the high score!”

      1. CWR

        She demands linked play & simultaneous high scores.

  22. Ragnal

    Wait, wait, stop. This is still in September, isn’t it? Didn’t MLP: FiM premiere in October?

    Or is the excuse “It’s my universe, the show debuted already”? ^^; Please don’t hurt me…

    1. David

      August, actually. But not the August of any particular year. Dumbing of Age won’t slowly become a period piece.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        LIke how Ash from Pokemon remains 10 years old for the last 14 years or so?

      2. Null Set

        Woo! Class of 20*mumble* pride!

      3. Wackd

        I love how it’s been August for the past seven months now.

        1. David

          DoA’s goal is to move more slowly than Questionable Content.

        2. taekwondogirl

          OSHI

        3. Plasma Mongoose

          Does this mean that we see what will happen in a weeks time until 2015?

        4. David

          Well, at the rate we’re going, it will probably be one week = one year. Though, honestly, after this first week I probably won’t do storyline = one Earth day anymore, and loosen things up a bit. I expect this first semester to last forever, regardless.

        5. Kide

          Oh God DAMN that’s slow.

        6. Bill M.

          And yet, faster than Between Failures…

        7. Ragnal

          Ugh, god yeah. The only thing that turned me off of the comic was that a day seemed to go by in…over a hundred fifty pages, was it?

        8. Roborat

          Keep it up, and you will be challenging Megatokyo for the slowness title.

  23. Romanticide

    Aww their interaction is cute 😀

    1. |Agent

      And your avatar is entirely too scary to be saying that comment.

  24. Dahlia

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *shakes fist to the sky*

  25. Liberal1337

    Kevin is still watching her!!!!!!!

    1. Liberal1337

      Hyper link fail… ugh

      http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs9/i/2006/005/1/8/Sin_City__s_Kevin_by_Pitchounette.jpg

  26. nitpicker

    I like how Willis is hiding the eyes of the people in the background after the brutal hounding he got over Shaggy.

  27. T Campbell

    Man, if I had tried to call this one, Amber telling Danny “you have my vagina’s attention” within three strips is not how I would have guessed it would go.

    1. Loki

      Agreed! But it’s an interesting twist.

  28. Severin

    Hehe, two nerds having a frank discussion about sex in an open classroom.

    1. Rikushadow5

      Irony would be if it were Biology or something like that.

  29. Angelicfiend

    damnit amber stop stealing all my men from me,Ethan will be mine! (if he was real) >:)

  30. Lazarus

    Maybe it’s me, but DoA Amber seems to be a hell of a lot more open and down-to-earth than her Shortpacked counterpart, even if she is a WoW addict. Wonder if the traumatic childhood exists in this continuity?

    1. Thomas

      It does, but it’s gay in this universe.

    2. agentksilver

      If she’s more open and down to earth…what about Faz?!? I know it’s been asked before but I want to know if Faz is still Faz.

  31. CWR

    The sound of a vagina snapping to attention…I miss it.

    1. Melizza

      I’m sorry..

  32. Jimbo

    PONIES YEAH!

  33. JBO

    Wait which gay dudes did she date? She only dated Ethan and he obviously isn’t gay!

    1. Loki

      Well, not in this universe, anyway.

  34. gangler

    Ponies! ^^D

  35. Kelsey

    He knows just what to say. ALL the ladies love a dude who watches My Little Pony.

  36. jroetzer

    YAY! anothere webcomic that references MLP FiM!

  37. Hoop

    Looks like it’s time to play Pin the Tail on the Autistic Spectrum!

  38. Slipgate

    I just want to say that I freaking love their interactions. Without going into details, I like how they can be specific with each other – like upfront admitting to the flirting and her being okay with that and discussing possible reciprocal interest and so on – without them going all weird about it. I just really, really like their interaction 100% and I’d love to read more and more of it. Please? 🙂

    1. Melizza

      Their lack of awkwardness makes me feel awkward for them. 🙁

  39. XLR

    Well… I also like the new My Little Pony… funny considering my avi is Danny :/

  40. agentksilver

    Amber, Amber, Amber. “Maybe, if you’re not gay” is not going to cut it. No, no. “Maybe” isn’t even going to cut it. I’ve been in these situations. Decide soon and decide fast if you’re interested. Otherwise you’re just stringing him along.

    I say this as if I have any sway over a fictional character whose dialogue is being plotted a month in advance.

  41. madd

    No pony has ever caught my vagina’s attention.

    For this, I am truly thankful.

    Amber is creeping me out right now.

    1. gangler

      Nopony? Nopony has ever caught your vaginas attention? Surely there’s somepony of interest to you. Everypony’s got somepony.

      1. Kirby

        Right… that joke made Leslie’s name seem as straight faced as a widow at the funeral….

  42. Plan D

    I’m looking forward to Amber letting her guard down and developing feelings for Danny, only for them to both realize his heart belongs to Amazi-Girl.

  43. TheRealAllPurposeGuru

    Soooo. Apparently Dorothy does the horizontal hoedown.

  44. jaredstar

    nooooo amanny is a threat to my otp Banny…. sorry i couldn’t say that with a straight face.

    1. Kernanator

      No no no no, the proper term is “Damber”.

  45. Hannover Fist

    I should have known he’d be a brony.

  46. jaredstar

    nah i just can’t play the die hard shipper

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      I cannot say that I would ship John McClane with anyone either.

  47. zuche

    If mentioning them gets that sort of attention, whispering all their names into her ear should count as serious foreplay.

  48. Plasma Mongoose

    When I first started noticing that there was this huge upsurge in My Little Pony Rule 34 a few weeks ago, I just assumed it was some kind of strange meme started by 4chan or something.

    Then it started to get mentioned in some of the webcomics I read, so I finally checked out TVTropes last night to find out what is going on.

    So now I am DL the first season of this series to find out why evryone seems to be squeeing over this series.

  49. Shift

    This would have to be the most awkward pre-dating conversation. ever for Danny. And how many gay guys has Amber dated? Hell, how many gay guys are in there in the Walky Universe? Ethan & Drew for certain. Ninja Rick and Faz are bisexual. Mike will have sex with anyone, so long as it results in the other party being traumatized and crying…

    1. rali

      Drew’s bi. Thad, Ethan, and Evan are gay.

  50. Ωmega

    Boy, she is really open about things.

  51. Janette

    That could lead to some interesting roleplay sex.

    There. I said it.

  52. Somebody

    I don’t understand what that would have to do with sexuality.

  53. Noah

    So, I decided to do an archive binge to refresh my memory about the earlier times of DoA. In light of today’s strip (Dec. 25, 2014), this one is kind of… concerning.

  54. Kilo

    Huh, this went up less than a week before I started watching. Unexpected coincidences, away!
