    To be fair, Sarah’s just drawing a fart.

    1. brionl

      Right, unless ‘FFFT’ is some sort of penis noise, I’m going with fart cloud too.
      I’ve owned a penis for many decades, and it’s never gone ‘FFFT’

      1. Jen Aside

        Gravatar + post = uhhh

      2. Achallenger

        Brionl! I have traveled here from the future to warn you! Ur blissfully discrete days are nearing an end

  2. Geminia999

    What does Sarah think a dong looks like?

    1. Maveric1984

      Awww, poor girl has only had boyfriends that didn’t measure up

      1. Viktoria

        Well, yeah. She has a massive toy collection for a reason.

      2. stormblazer

        Nah, it’s just flaccid.

      3. LiaHansen

        Or they just had large, sticky-outy balls

    2. LiaHansen

      In fairness, has any dong-doodle ever ACTUALLY looked like a penis?

      1. Opus the Poet

        I’m sure Damn-You-Willis has done a few “acceptable” ones.

      2. Yotomoe

        Only for a person that REALLY needs a hospital.

      3. Usayasha

        I once had a dry-erase board on my door at the dorms, and I was SO disappointed in the quality of dongs on it. I found the vandals and requested better penis drawings, but alas they never delivered on quality.

        Everyone is so eager to offer up their penis, but no one seems to have one worth wanting.

        1. Jen Aside

          Well, that whiteboard is only so big.

      4. Spider

        Clearly you haven’t spent any time among the Marine Corps.

      5. Andrusi

        Yeah, in my experience a typical penis graffito looks like an oddly-proportioned mitten.

    3. tinfoil theory

      That’s not a dong, that’s a finger.

  3. Ratso

    Lo! The Prophet Walky is come!

    1. LuckyStar7

      (/*o*)/ All hail!

  4. Wonder Wig

    Whatever holds the image of a dong becomes a dong.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Looks more like a hand doing the up yours thing to me.

      1. Maveric1984

        You mean the 7-up thing?

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Something like that.

        2. Maveric1984

          Sorry, forgot you were from the other side of the globe. This is what I’m referencing

        3. Plasma Mongoose

          Heh, cute ad. ^_^

        4. Alan Lafond

          Love that ad! I knew which one it was before I even clicked the link, because it’s the same one I thought of when you referenced 7-Up in your previous post. 🙂

          Hard to believe he was basically a nobody when this ad campaign started. Now he’s police chief of Sleepy Hollow!

    3. Yotomoe

      It is the circle of Dongs.

      1. Doctor_Who

        My favorite song of The Loin King soundtrack.

          Dammit, Willis! The comment section needs a like button!
          Please?

        5. Jen Aside

          well I guess WordPress has a Like option but would you rather him spend time implementing code or drawing porn, I guess

          [too bad there’s not a DONGLE or something you just stick in]

  5. Sgore

    See, this is the kind of stuff I missed out on by being a commuter student. Coulda had some magical and exciting experiences with dry erase boards, let me tell you.

  6. Beige

    dat Sarah face. so cute XD

    1. newllend

      Its a cute troll face.

    2. Yotomoe

      I wanna smoosh her face in a not Billie way.

  7. Ryune

    Also poops. P. sure I got lots of poops drawn on my white board in college.

    1. Maveric1984

      As long as they weren’t drawing on your whiteboard with poop.

      1. Yotomoe

        where’d they get the brown marke- oh god.

        1. anonymous

          I tried to erase it with my finger before I realized it was real! GET IT OFF GET IT OFF GET IT OFF SOMEBODY GET ME SOME F*CKING SOAP

      1. LiaHansen

        Actually, I’d say it actually resembles the outline of the guy on there more than it does a peener

        1. Jen Aside

          Hmm… I just played this game called TRAUMA, and that’s actually pretty close to the symbol you draw to “catch” somebody =p

      2. Maveric1984

        We’ve got inches of money!

      3. Plasma Mongoose

        It adds a whole new meaning to the concept of inflation. 😀

          OH GOD

        2. Sambo

  9. Plasma Mongoose

    When will you ever learn Joyce?

    1. newllend

      People will ALWAYS draw dicks when they get the chance.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Well they should be more PC and make sure that half the drawings are vaggies.

        1. Opus the Poet

          Way too hard compared to drawing a dick caricature. Two circles and an elongated arch make a dick that can be recognized as such, what makes for a universally-understood Vay Jay Jay?

        2. Plasma Mongoose

          ({;})

        3. nothri

          Looks like a pumpkin to me…

          Then again….

          8==========D

          Looks like a guy with glasses and a long nose laughing at something.

        4. tinfoil theory

          Deltoid inscribed in a rhombus.

        5. Tenn

          A “V” with a vertical line down the middle.

        6. Jen Aside

          much easier to go with boobs: just draw a three and add dots

        7. Opus the Poet

          Or a sideways B with dots.

      2. Yotomoe

        Even if they have to go through a lot of trouble they will draw dicks.

        1. Doctor_Who

          Those elaborate crop circles people find in their fields? That’s what alien genitalia look like.

          They travel light years just to use our planet as a bathroom wall.

        2. Cedric Y. Berman

          For some reason I can only picture Eleven saying that

        3. Faye

          I dunno, sounds like a Turlough thing to say to me. http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Turlough if you don’t know who that is…

          I can just picture him saying it to Tegan, he loved to rile her up, and I loved him for it.

      3. StClair

        In games where players can create and submit their own content (Spore, MMOs, etc etc), the “Time To Dick” after the feature goes live is often measured in minutes, if not seconds.

    2. Shade

      I still say she’s being pretty uptight for a person who recently had a vibrator up their nose.

  10. newllend

    I would have just drawn boobs instead or Joyce with a Mustache just to troll her.

    1. Yotomoe

      I would have drawn my head. It’s just my natural doodling thing. (and yet I still suck at drawing me.)

      1. LuckyStar7

        I would have drawn a shirtless Bruce Lee just cuz.

    2. Mr K

      Or combine the two.

      1. ProjectXa3

        OHGODNO

      2. Anarchy 101

        Would that be yotomoe with a mustache and boobs? Cause that’d be hilarious

        1. Jen Aside

          Friend got harassed by some dude to draw “a naked guy” [“guy” being any male character], finally ended up drawing Pikachu with an enormous dick

          …like, the dick was larger than Pikachu

  11. Parismio

    No one can resist the drawing of dongs!

  12. deathjavu

    Yeah, that’s what tended to end up on whiteboards in the guys wing.

    Big veiny ones, typically.

    1. Kernanator

      I never understood what the point of drawing veins on things, bodies or dongs, was. It just looks weird and off-putting.

      1. Yotomoe

        I think you just answered your own question.

      2. ProjectXa3

        It implies the strength of the object, thick muscular strength that makes the veins stand out when flexed.

        1. Kernanator

          Alright, that explains bodies, I guess, but what about dongs? Are they trying to insinuate that they can lift a dumbbell with theirs?

        2. dethtoll

          “look at this trick i can do with a beer can” “dude sick”

        3. Kinoko

          It’s to imply that the dong is REALLY hard. The blood pressure is so high that the veins are standing out. This is a thing that happens. >_>;

        4. Kinoko

          …Any embarrassment at trying to explain that was probably overwhelmed by Joe gravatar.

    2. Deanatay

  13. Just Me

    Sarah does look so happy…maybe she’d be happier if she got laid once in a while.

    1. ProjectXa3

      By Joe perhaps?

      1. tinfoil theory

        ← I’d prefer to nominate someone who knows what he’s doing.

  14. Khaner

    That dong is pathetic
    I mean, really.
    I also thing there is something wrong with the balls. WAY too large.

    1. Maveric1984

      Remember guys, check yourself for testicular cancer!

    2. Yotomoe

      I imagine Sarah hasn’t seen balls she hasn’t kicked to a swollen size.

      1. newllend

        Or maybe she’s drawing it off of the memory of the first one she’s ever seen.

        1. LuckyStar7

          Her brother’s, when she walked into the bathroom and he was standing completely naked in the middle of the room?

        2. Yotomoe

          In his defense he was 2.

    3. Ancestral Hamster

      Perhaps Sarah is drawing rodent genitals. Rodents have disproportionately huge scrotums.

      1. LuckyStar7

        Especially when they have eaten yogurt, funny enough.

      2. anonymous

        Ohh, is that why you identify as a hamster? You want gigantic testicles?

      3. Kelly

        Yep. Testicle and penis size vary largely based on mating strategies. Chimps are promiscuous and have very large testicles. Gorillas are not, and a male silverback’s genitals are much smaller than a humans. See also: the Japanese tanuki and portrayals thereof.

    4. Jen Aside

      Sarah’s easing her in…

  15. Yotomoe

    You don’t know! Maybe they’ll draw boobs!

    1. deathjavu

      In my experience, people are waaaaay more likely to draw dongs.

      1. Yotomoe

        I could have sworn I typed “Butts”…hmmm.

        1. newllend

          Oooh maybe some one will draw a Butt taco.

    Sarah is demoing how vibrators work to Joyce.

    1. Maveric1984

      I think Joyce got the gist of it.

        I know I know. It goes on my belly right?

    if somebody drew a really realistic dong on my dry-erase board…I wouldn’t even be mad, that took some fuckin time and skill. They deserve some type of admoration

  20. Bill

    Sarah, you’re not helping!!!

    1. Mr K

      Hey, maybe Joyce will become more comfortable with genitalia, and then be less sexually repressed. She’s doing the right thing!

      1. Jonathan Lang

        Eh; Joyce doesn’t need to be less sexually repressed. She’s fine as she is, at least in that regard.

        1. David M Willis

          um

        2. Yotomoe

          We’ve all stuck vibrators up our noses. It’s just part of the learning process.

        3. Deathjavu

          You’re absolutely right, the terrifying dreams, constant shame, overwhelming guilt and even outright admitting her own terror about relationships to Dorothy means she’s fine.

          Wait, are we reading the same comic?

        4. Jonathan Lang

          The terrifying dreams and terror about relationships are the result of being assaulted, not sexually repressed. That is, they’re not going to be fixed by sexual experimentation; they’re going to be fixed by confronting and overcoming the trauma she’s experienced.

          The “constant shame” and “overwhelming guilt” is neither constant nor overwhelming; and a sense of guilt and shame can be a positive thing if it helps you avoid making bad decisions.

          We are reading the same comic; we’re just not reading it the same way.

        5. David M Willis

          You’re reading the same comic, but I think you skipped a lot of parts.

        6. Jonathan Lang

          I recently finished a marathon reading session where I caught up from the first panel to the present, inclusive. I assure you, I have not skipped anything.

          That said, I’m well aware that this is probably an alternative character interpretation, and that the only time Joyce’ personal beliefs have been shown to serve her in good stead has been when she’s used them to call out the hypocracy of others with similar beliefs (such as her recent altercation with her family).

          Otherwise, she mostly seems to be based on the worst stereotypes of the background she came from (i.e., homeschooled Protestant), with her only positive characteristics being portrayed as traits she has in spite of her upbringing rather than because of it.

          As an example: you recently had an arc where a number of students were trying to get her to swear, something that she finds intensely uncomfortable and with which she has moral issues. And you played it as innocent fun on the part of those messing with her, as if her choice not to swear isn’t a choice worth respecting.

          That said, I did just finish a marathon reading session of this comic; there’s a reason why. Despite the above gripe I have with your portrayal of Joyce, my overall impression of the comic is a positive one.

        7. Hotsauce

          Dude, how do you do a marathon read of this comic and not once read the many times that Willis says that Joyce is based not on stereotypes, but on Willis himself? Seriously, that takes an impressive degree of refusing to see things that would require you to change your world view. It’s like wearing blinders is your super power.

        8. Jonathan Lang

          @Hotsauce: it’s actually quite simple to do: I read the comic, not the commentary, judging it based on what I saw rather than what people said about it. This may be the first day for which I bothered to read the comments at all.

        9. Jonathan Lang

          And personal attacks? Seriously?

        10. David M Willis

          My favorite part of this critique is about how the stuff which is 100% true to my life are apparently being based on stereotypes. That thing with the paying for swearing? Actually happened. That was my life. Literally me. A copy-paste.

          And I would pay attention to the story where Joyce paid a dude to punch her date in the face if he displayed any lustful thoughts or actions — which happened long before the party — before pinning her behavior solely on the events of the party.

          I was made fun of as a kid for behaving like Joyce, and now strangers make fun of me for “making up” Joyce because she’s apparently a huge lie. Thanks for perpetuating my life’s one true constant.

          Note: There is a FAQ. Don’t be super smug about not having read it, because it’s making you look like an asshole.

        11. advancecasette

          Kind of ashamed the thing that made me cringe most about this critique is the serious posting of tvtropes page.

  21. John Madden

    A friend of mine once told me that everything comes back to dick jokes.

    1. Opus the Poet

      That or fart jokes. It is a cultural constant.

      1. ProjectXa3

        Hell, Shakespeare did “Your Mom” jokes.

        1. StClair

          Once you break through the vocabulary barrier, one finds that ol’ Will was absolutely filthy. (There’s a passage in Othello where Iago, observing someone with a habit of touching his fingers to his mouth, wishes that they were enema tubes… >.< )

    2. StClair

      You know Bob Saget?

  22. Well_Played

    If your not drawing a dong then your not doing it right.

  23. Pyr05

    Any board, be it dry erase or chalk, has had a peen drawn on it. Even those ones in churches. So.. look out.

    1. Totz the Plaid

      …or merely wooden, and a lot of metal sheets. …and plastic.

      Peens everywhere.

      1. tinfoil theory

        It’s a conspiracy!

    2. Tenn

      Every Nintendo DS game with a notepad feature is inaugurated with a stylus-drawn dong. For some games, that’s the only thing ever drawn. *extrapolating from self*

  24. Tacdud2

    Sarah seems pretty happy to draw that.

  25. caesaria82

    Heee, this is the strip I saw you draw when you did that live drawing thing. I was wondering when that was gonna pop up.

    A+, Sarah. Always love a good dick drawing.

  26. Totz the Plaid

    That’s one tiny dong Sarah’s doodling there…

    1. Yotomoe

      You could say it’s a …little doodle.

      1. Jen Aside

        a little doodle for a little diddle

        1. Jonathan Lang

          hey diddle diddle, the pussy cat and the fiddle…

  27. Packy

    I half expected to see a “dongs” tag on this comic.

    This serves as an intriguing bit of commentary about Internet comment forums. (and yes, I’m well aware of the irony of saying so on an Internet comment forum.

    I really cannot understand why people feel the need to draw dicks everywhere. Seriously, it’s gross :-/

    2. Suitora

      I find it funny that the person with the Sarah avatar was the one who said this.

      1. Deanatay

        And with ‘Sex’ and ‘Delight’ in their name.

        1. LuckyStar7

          Turbo Sexaphonic Delight sounds like a dildo name.

        2. Opus the Poet

          Or a Porn Star Name.

        3. LuckyStar7

          Or something someone would name their penis.

  31. nothri

    Personally, the concept that people will automatically draw dicks on a dry erase board just strikes me as a ::dons shades:: a total fallacy.

    1. Ocksgrough

      I don’t get it. But if “fallacy” and “dicks” are somehow linked in a way usable for wordplay, I want to know. Hell, if any two of the three of those and “dry erase board” are linked…

      1. Jen Aside

        Fallacy…OH!

      2. Loki

        In case you are serious: look up phallus on a thesaurus.

  32. nothri

    And onto a more serious topic, I hope Billie takes this opportunity to deal with her shit. She hasn’t taken the situation with Ruth well. I’d go so far as to say she’s letting it and drinking destroy her.

    1. Eukie

      But where would the fun (for us) be in that? Sensible People Making Sensible Decisions is a terrible webcomic!

  33. Idon'tcarenomore

    Never felt the urge to draw one, appreciate the real thing though.

    Never understood the urge to draw them everywhere either, but to each their own. They are easy to draw, universally recognized, and what the hey, why not.

    Love Sarah’s face.

    Joyce, you’ll learn eventually.

  34. Kiggy

    Baaaaahahahahahaaah!!!

  35. CarlaGriffin

    That is exactly what happened when I got a dry erase board.

  37. TemplarKnight

    Nobody drew anything on my dry erase board.

    Seriously why does Sarah always score so low on DOA polls? She’s awesometastic!

        Phoenix Wright objections anyone!

    2. OmegaDez

      Cuz she got no glasses.

  39. Arcanist

    No dickbutt?

    Willis, I am very, VERY disappointed.

    1. David M Willis

      The Internet has already stolen dickbutt from KC Green, and I’m not about to steal it more.

          She was a regular shower fan.

    We had cork boards and push pins. People used to pin up used condoms on them.

  42. KrazyTom

    I totally read Joyce’s last line in Jeff Goldblum’s voice from Lost World. lol

  43. Arkadi

    Draw the dong! >:3

  44. bkthomson

    Joyce will soon figure this it all out, right? I mean sooner or later everyone around will warp her mind enough that soon she will be look at cucumber differently. Right?

    Sarah hopes it works like the Bat signal. Or at least a Jacob signal.

    1. timemonkey

      She’ll be so disappointed when all it attracts is Ethan.

  46. Deanatay

    BTW, this is no one-comic joke. Note the name of the next chapter.

    1. Vibbles

      Aw man, book 5 chapter 1 is gonna be hella sad, isn’t it? =(

      1. Bill

        That’s a line out of Jessie’s song in Toy Story 2.
        It means that Walky is finally going to be giving up his Dexter and Monkey-Master toys.

  47. Bagge

    MAN-DANGLE!

  48. Alexx

    I thought Door Dicks were the polite response to a newly installed wipe-away board?

  49. John

    If that’s a dong, where’s the hook for the butt?

    1. LuckyStar7

      On the clitoris.

      1. anonymous

        It’s a natural-grown dong.

  50. OmegaDez

    Those things always end up being penis magnets.

  51. LuckyStar7

    ‘Sa peenie! ‘Sa peenie!

  52. ATN

    DONG DONG DONG DONG

  53. BeckHop

    Hey, I had a dry-erase board on my door freshman year and NOBODY drew a dong on it! I feel cheated!

  54. Jack Finch

    Back in the 80s there a hall mate in my dorm was this tremendously sweet, good-natured, very-innocent and very christian student John. He’s the the male Joyce from my dorm years.

    And this exact thing happened to him. In part by people who targeted his innocent straight-arrow character. Dongs. Artistically crude drawings of 69ing, etc.

  55. ajm5007

    They’re also gonna steal your marker. You will never have a marker.

  56. Kinoko

    Ahaha. I lived in a hall ostensibly for art majors my freshman year, and I put up a white board naively thinking we could all draw collaboratively. I woke up each morning to find freshly-drawn dongs in the mouths of every character doodle. Gifts from the Dong Fairy!

    People also stole some original artwork off my door, which I hadn’t thought to scan or copy. :<

  57. Ingrid

    true story: 2 years in the dorms and not a dong to be found on my dry erase board.

    1. Maveric1984

      You just jinxed it you know. Now I want to find you and draw dongs all over your whiteboard

    2. Jen Aside

      Dry erase is decidedly low-tech—kids nowadays like to Follow people and PM them all kinds of bigoted racist/sexist/everything-ist garbage and death threats and that “for fun”

  58. John

    Does that October-preview Amber’s T-shirt really say “HUGS BOSOM”?

    ‘Cause, I mean, it does seem like her bosom would be pretty great in a hug, but I didn’t really think Amber was the sort to advertise it like that.

    Then again, she’s smiling, and from the blush she’s Amber, not Amazi-Girl, so evidently she makes some radical adjustments between now and then.

    1. Maveric1984

      I’m sure it’s one part double entendre, and one part Higgs-Boson joke.

      1. David M Willis

        The Hugs Bosom is made out of the God DAYYumn particle.

        1. brionl

          No relation to Bosun Higgs.

        2. xKiv

          Or hog’s bison.

        3. tinfoil theory

          How did I never catch that.

        4. Jen Aside

          I thought that was a huge bosom

  59. Mishyana

    That face Sarah is making in the fifth panel is now the official troll face of the internet.

  60. Onion

    I would definitely draw some dogs.
