Well, for one, Ruth is already known for being a terrible beast of an RA.
And two, I doubt Walky’s supposed to be there, since it’s the girl’s floor and he is a dude.
Not to nitpick, but aren’t they gender-segregated by “girls’ half of hallway” and “boys’ half of hallway”?

i think there was an elevator scene that established that there are two elevators for two different halls, Unless those were super sexist elevators
Khrene
Well at Humboldt State theres two building each in the shape of an “L.” One wing of the L’s are meant for the men and the other for women, so the buldings are coed but the wings are seperated by sex.
She coulda been riding the elevator in the mens wing of the building, if thats how these dorms work.
You know it has been there for a little while but the line above Dorothy’s lips, whether it is supposed to be a lip or makeup, makes her looks like she has messily been eating cheetos.

With blackjack, and hookers. In fact, forget the shoes.
Blob Marley
No matter what that meme is applied to, it is always hilarious and Benderific.
Flushmaster
And the blackjack.

INTENSE SHOE KICKING FACE IS INTENSE

😀 Best thing is, I figured out how to do this YEARRRRRS AGO!
Wonder Wig
The last two comics have taught me how flexible they both are.
Yotomoe
They’re gonna teach each other that soon enough.
Volkai
And it will be good.
Yotomoe
That SRS BSNS shoe kick face
Plasma Mongoose
I suspect that Ruth is too drunk to care at the moment.
Yotomoe
She’s too caare to drunk at moment..
Wonder Wig
Must be a naked invisible person wearing shoes taking large steps.
Kernanator
I KNEEEEEW IT!
GrrArg42
They’re on to me!
darcos0
see her eyebrows? not even on her HEAD
Groove
Lol, I hadn’t noticed that until you said it.
Charlie Spencer
I suspect Ruth will take a whiff of sneaker and then track them down like a bloodhound.
Nerdman
I don’t know, a shoe suddenly flying at your face sounds like a quick way to sober up.
Valdrax
Is this even the same day?
Kernanator
“…THIS is how you kick a shooooh shit.”
Also, I love how they make the exact same face when launching their shoes.
MADE FOR EACH OTHER.
Yotomoe
That is the mandatory professional shoe launching face. They could lose points off their final score if they fail to make it.
taekwondogirl
Welp, not anywhere near as bad as I was anticipating. I was thinking Ruth would get a face full of shoe and taste the agony of defeet.
Kernanator
I’m in agony from your terrible pun.
You sure you aren’t related to me?
Yotomoe
Crap! (S)he’s onto our secret cloning ring! ABORT!!!
Kernanator
You won’t get away this time, Professor Yotomoe!
Deemah
MAN THOSE WERE AWESOME SHOES TOO!!! Although since they were Walky’s they most likely had a funk >_>
Plasma Mongoose
If she really wants to make it up to him, allow him to wear PJ Jeans again.
Yotomoe
Only on the condition that they are wearing they share it. *nudge nudge wink wink*
Deemah
I smell something on rule 34, or Willis doing it when he is bored one night (but never showing us V_V)
Doctor_Who
Yeah, in the missing sixth panel, Ruth keels over from having them land so near to her.
Ragnal
Why so scared? It’s not like they hit Ruth.
Sam

Dotty bends it like Beckham.
Kernanator
Bet that will come in handy.
Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.

Wakka wakka wakka!
Rex Hondo
Bow chicka bwow-wow.
Kirt Dankmyer
I ain’t gonna lie. Panel 3 is weirdly hot.
Andiemus
He-ey hey!
begbert2
Say no more!
GrrArg42
Eh?
Yotomoe
Sierra: or you could be awesome like me and not wear them. DOWN WITH THE OPPRESSIVE FOOT CAGES!!! LET YOUR FEET FLAG FLY!
Raoullefere
I think that’s “Let your feet fly flags.” Which, without shoes, I suppose they can do now, clutching the little sticks betwixt the toes.
GenericScreenName101
Ruth is doing a great job of keeping of keeping that wall up
GenericScreenName101
…Also who the hell does Walky think he is giving advice on proper technique oh how to kick a shoe.
Blob Marley
Her eyebrows are clearly about to head south for the winter.
Walky
I’d be scared as hell too if I saw hovering eyebrows like those.
Blob Marley
Dem legs 8-F
Leorale
Woo! More footwear-shopping scenes!
(Nah they’ll just go get their shoes when Ruth’s gone.)
Raoullefere
Were Ruth more of a pansy, that’d be perfect timing; she’d be needing a receptacle in which to upchuck, and the gods provided.
Blue
*notes absence of drunk-bubbles*
Man, Ruth sobered up quickly.
Khrene
Its been 3 strips Blue, who knows if its been 6 minutes or 4 days
DaJoshMaster
Naaa they’ve just disappeared for a few seconds as her eyebrows just popped them tall.
GrrArg42
HA!
Star Ranger
or the foot funk has dissolved the alcohol in her blood stream.
Zoey
Looks like shes doing a guile flash kick!

Why do bad things have to happen to good shoes!?
Pinja
You know it has been there for a little while but the line above Dorothy’s lips, whether it is supposed to be a lip or makeup, makes her looks like she has messily been eating cheetos.
Mancuso
Hehe, dorothy’s a southpaw. Or south… hind?
Kitsuki Noriyuki
doesnt it only suggest walky is right footed that she, going second, is left with his left shoe to work with?
EmmaU
Anyone notice Sierra’s gone missing? With her being a shoeless wonder she’s no doubt going to take the blame from Ruth.
ACMB
Nooooo – I’m up to date! Just spent a most enjoyable few hours reading DoA from the beginning 🙂 Thank you Mr Willis.
