My college roommate locked me out because he was schtupping his girlfriend. He then passed out and I had to sleep on the couch.
This was preferable to when, two months after i thought he started remembering to unlock the door, I learned that the reason he took the mattress off the frame was so he “won’t wake [me] up.”
He’d started schtupping her with me IN THE ROOM AND ASLEEP.
Tim
Well it could be worse, he could have been actually good at it. Because clearly he wasn’t if they were able to be that quiet.
Then again, it could have been a lot worse and he had started schtupping her while she was asleep too

My gf and I learned to be very, very quiet when we were going at it when her parents were in the other room…
huttj509
Eh, people vary. My ex was always quiet, and got more so at, um, the climax…

Ah, that reminds me of the time I came back to my dormroom in the midafternoon while wearing headphones, unlocked the door, walked into the room, set my bag down, picked up my DVD player from my desk, turned around, and got an eyefull of my roommate riding her boyfriend very vigorously. Due to headphones, I hadn’t heard them, and due to their distraction, they hadn’t noticed me either.
After a shocked moment, I grabbed a DVD and snuck back out of the room, relocking it behind me, and went to the lounge with my DVD player to watch some anime on the communal TV. Which is what I was planning to do anyway, but without that image burnt into my retinas.
As far as I know, they never realized I’d been in the room. Which is probably for the best because, while obviously not adverse to sex itself, my roommate was almost Joyce levels of repressed when it came to _talking_ about sex.

It seems like you missed out on a perfect opportunity to torment her. You could just drop little tid-bits about things you saw into casual conversation, without specifying that you actually saw them. Soft of like “Hey, I was wondering if you preferred cowgirl or reverse cowgirl?” Then pause, and exclaim while she is sputtering “You’re a cowgirl (or reverse, whichever one she was doing that night) person, I just know it!”
I don’t think I could handle Ethan’s collecting habits either, myself.
But I wouldn’t turn it into “Something is WRONG with you, Ethan, and you need to completely abandon this thing that is so central to your life, if you want me to not consider you a freak unworthy of my affection.” I’d be more like, “I know this is really important to you, but it’s really difficult for me to deal with, and maybe we’re not meant to share living quarters.”
DoA Drew may be different from SP! Drew, of course. But SP! Drew clearly considered Ethan to be a) damaged goods, and b) morally responsible for not controlling his (Ethan’s) interests in a method that he (Drew) considered socially acceptable.
tl;dr: fuck Drew
Nono
SP! Drew started off fine, I think. He just pointed out that the sheer amount of toys that Ethan had made him slightly claustrophobic. And did some lighthearted teasing.
The issue did go both ways – Ethan was highly dependent on his toy collecting for comfort, and was very defensive about it. The split came when they couldn’t reconcile their differences and kept expecting the other to suit them.

After the split is when Drew really became an asshole if I remember correctly.
BBCC
This.

I think the message I’m getting is more don’t f–k Drew. Unfortunately, it would appear to have come too late for Ethan.
Daibhid C
Darn, I was being so Joyce about actually writing “f–k”, I forgot to check the italic tags.
Sam
I wouldn’t be able to handle it either. Drew let his apprehension build into resentment at the sight of them instead of having a more chill conversation that while displaying them was cool, he was collecting them at such a rate, there was nowhere to display anything else and that it was suffocating when it was leaking into other rooms and that his interest was overwhelmingly pervading into their every moment together. Like, there are efficient ways to display things – it’s why display cases are a thing which could have condensed how much space they took up, so there were definitely ways to fix it, but Drew wasn’t looking to offer solutions to the problem, he was just getting annoyed about it.
Oh dear, we finally see Drew in Dumbiverse… do you think he’ll figure out he’s bi while with Ethan, or think he’ll leave Ethen thinking he only likes girls at some point?
(I also discovered, while looking this strip up, that the June 15, 2019 strip’s alttext predicts that Asher will eventually be teaming up with Walky. So perhaps that bodes better than expected. Or it’s a throwaway alttext joke. Who can say.)

Socking doors, a glorious alternative.

True Story: My first college freshman roommate used to unlock the doors after I would go to sleep. Ugh.

“Makeout” . . . sure, that’s totally all they did.

Honestly, most likely. At most. In someone else’s room, where they could walk in at any moment?

College…

Is the strip small for anyone else or is that just me?
Dara
YES
then I refreshed and it got larger
it was zooming in i think
Cattleprod
It was small initially, when I reloaded to see if anyone else commented on that it was normal.
miz
it’s still small for me. maybe by commenting this it will prompt the page to fix it?

There are teeth on the inner legs.
As with the “dig it” shirt, she may have missed a possible innuendo.

Is Drew also a TF nerd in this verse?
Nono
Ah, Drew. I really hope he works out better in this universe.
Gigafreak
He could just be a casual fling.
Though that’d probably still count as “working out better”
abysswatcher1993
That is Dina’s velociraptor purchased with blood money. Only she and her Aaron Burr kind of girlfriend can have intimacy over it.
DailyBrad
Blech. No way is she anything like Aaron Burr. For one thing, she’d know better than to include Wilkinson in a conspiracy.
jeffepp
Wilkinson was such a backstabber.
BBCC
Oh. Great. Drew’s back.
Yaaaaay.
Anyways, you two, don’t make out on someone else’s bed, that’s icky. 😛
Sol Karas
Been a while since I read Shortpacked!… Drew was the guy who was being utterly ridiculous about Ethan’s collecting habits, right?
BBCC
The very same.
Marsh Maryrose
I don’t think I could handle Ethan’s collecting habits either, myself.
But I wouldn’t turn it into “Something is WRONG with you, Ethan, and you need to completely abandon this thing that is so central to your life, if you want me to not consider you a freak unworthy of my affection.” I’d be more like, “I know this is really important to you, but it’s really difficult for me to deal with, and maybe we’re not meant to share living quarters.”

I spent a couple minutes looking at this comic trying to remember drew and then went “ohhhhh that’s catman”

I hope Drew is less of a douche in this universe.

I hope so too.

What’s a Drew?
Clif
An Ethan boyfriend.

A jerk.
A hot jerk.

A hot MESS who is also a jerk.

Unwilling to compromise about certain things that are central to Ethan. Hope they’re just bangin.

Drew is who David drew down next to Dina’s dino.

According to the tags, Dina drew Ethan.

Naw, that’s Willis’ job!

Dina’s raptor is too awesome, it’s become irresistible. Hope she knows how to wash it.

Oh dear, we finally see Drew in Dumbiverse… do you think he’ll figure out he’s bi while with Ethan, or think he’ll leave Ethen thinking he only likes girls at some point?
timemonkey
Hopefully this is the last we’ll see of him.
Clif
How did Ethan find out about it?
timemonkey
Because his best friend is Dina’s roommate?
Kamino Neko
Amber: Dina’s girlfriend gave her a giant dinobot-looking plushie, but neither of them are into Transformers, so they can’t properly appreciate it!

Both Amber and Dina predicted this. http://www.dumbingofage.com/2019/comic/book-9-comic/04-vote-for-robin/legitsorries/
