I broke my left humerus in a fall about a month and a half ago, and I didn’t think it was all that funny.
And now that Clif mentions them, I also fractured the left femur as well, seriously enough that it required surgery to implant a rod and a half dozen screws to rebuild everything.
I mean, Sarah is Joyce’s roommate and also went with her to get copies of the first published strip. It’s a good chance she’s got at least passing awareness of the catchphrase. Particularly if Joyce has touted it to her with typical Joycian enthusiasm.
Headcanon that Joyce constantly does this and it used to annoy Sarah, but then she got to a point where she began to understand the lore and is now invested.
Did they frequently make reference to fucking candy? ? I’ve lurked a bit, but the archive goes back far enough that I didn’t feel like scanning every strip’s comments section. I suppose everyone has something that does it for them.
Taffy
Never in my entire life have I fucked one piece of candy.
Great to see you. Not that I have anything against not candy fucking, I just thought of your kind of humorous comments that are always a pleasure to read.
Nah, Willis actually makes comics. Penders just announces them and never actually releases anything, even twelve years after said announcement.
The Oracle
Penders not only announces comics without releasing them, he also keeps suing people for making their own unrelated comics. And movies, recently. The guy has problems.

Sarah’s dressed as a funny bone, she found it humerus lolololol
True Survivor
I knew there was a reason this community favors you.
Cholma
Ana is plugged in to the lifeblood of this community!
King Daniel
Yeah, few have any bones to pick with Ana.
Clif
Except for Ruth who always has a supply of femers.

Two rods? Because yu need two needles to knit. Otherwise it’s just crocheting your bones together…

Take my upvote.

Thank you, Willis.

Wait for it.

Willis giveth and Willis taketh away.

Plot twist: Sarah is actually a huge fan and wants a selfie with “Julia”.
Sirksome
Is Sarah a fan of Julia Gray? How many people have read Julia Gray?

I mean, Sarah is Joyce’s roommate and also went with her to get copies of the first published strip. It’s a good chance she’s got at least passing awareness of the catchphrase. Particularly if Joyce has touted it to her with typical Joycian enthusiasm.
Opus the Poet
Yes but this is a semester removed before she and Walky vied for the cartoon page, so she probably hasn’t been exposed to the graphic adventures yet.
Needfuldoer
Her works of literature have been underway for a bit, though.
Nova
Again, Joyce is her roommate and an excitable sort. Chances that she hasn’t shown Sarah or talked about her main character are near-zero.
Thag Simmons
Sarah has read it but not by choice.
Stifyn Baker
I can imagine Joyce giving dramatic readings to anyone within earshot, willing or not.
C.T. Phipps
Sarah smiled and laughed.
The end of the world is nigh.
The Head Alien has its chains broken.
AbacusWizard
If the other Walkyverse had a Drama Tag, surely this Walkyverse oppositely has a Comedy Tag, right?
Kaiyalai
We began with christening the dorm with an inaugural poop, so,uh
Darasara
Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don’t they know it’s the end of the world?
It ended when you gave that smile
BBCC
Welp, never let it be said Sal doesn’t honour her word. Even word made to Malaya out of spite XD
And I love that Sarah knows the details about Julia Grey. <3
Suitora
I have a feeling Joyce infodumped the entire lore on her.
Needfuldoer
Of course, otherwise how could Sarah be her quality control proofreader?
powerpowerpow
Headcanon that Joyce constantly does this and it used to annoy Sarah, but then she got to a point where she began to understand the lore and is now invested.
Keulen
I suspect Joyce explains the lore of Julia Grey to any of her friends who will listen.
thejeff
Sal needs to put her own spin on the character. Change up the catch phrase or make up a new one. Something Joyce can then adopt into the comic.
The Oracle
They’re girlfriends now, right? This is how girlfriends happen?
RassilonTDavros
Who, Sal and Sarah?
The Oracle
No, Sarah and the bag of candy. /s
Actually, I rescind the /s. I ship Sarah and candy now, fight me.
Doctor_Who
Sarah really loves Halloween.
The Oracle
Honestly, valid. Candyfuckers unite. ??

For all sites i read i dont suspect DoA to be the one where i learn new fetish

How have things been?
The Wellerman
Ha ha ?

God damn askimet ?
brionl
Does Sarah love Halloween an unhealthy amount?
https://youtu.be/mScdJURKGWM?t=115
Nova
Yes, please.
The Wellerman
A very rare and arguably delightful occasion when Sarah smiles. ?
Ike
Sarah smiles AND Sarah doesn’t care. She lives in a world far too aware.
jeffepp
How could she not know? Joyce has explained it in detail, with the story going forward for ten years.
Schpoonman
I told you eventually Sarah’s capacity would burst and she’d just be happy. Glad to see her having such a good evening.
Crotonhurst
I love all of this. Bless you Willis, in a completely secular way of course.
Clif
And may the secular gods bless you in turn.
RassilonTDavros
Her frown and pessimism: gone.
Suet
Poor Sal.
Poor peanut butter cups?
Julia Gray needs more silver pants to amp up the spiffiness. And to avoid Panel 3.
Puppeteer Nessus
This is really great. Thank you Mr. Willis.
DailyBrad
Man, this really IS Sarah’s best birthday.
Needfuldoer
Except for the whole “getting kidnapped” part, at least.
Throwatron
this is the happiest sarah panel we will ever see
Clif
Truly, Halloween is a time of joy.
Eldritchy
The things she does because Malaya Fakey-called her.

This week, the character “Cherry” is featured in the syndicated “Mark Trail” comic strip, seen in many newspapers in the U.S.
Cherry has Becky’s hairstyle and angular chin.
See you in court, Mark…
The Oracle
Who do you think Willis is, Ken Penders? ?
RassilonTDavros
Nah, Willis actually makes comics. Penders just announces them and never actually releases anything, even twelve years after said announcement.
The Oracle
Penders not only announces comics without releasing them, he also keeps suing people for making their own unrelated comics. And movies, recently. The guy has problems.
Amós Batista
Y’know, I start to believe our fandom is weirdly so close to Sonic fandom, in a way or another.
I wonder how is this possible…
The Oracle
Have we ever seen Willis and Tyson Hesse in the same room?
RassilonTDavros
It’s probably Gonterman’s fault.
David M Willis
This week???? Cherry’s looked like that since Mark Trail was rebooted in 2020!
Sirksome
Wait…people still read Mark Trail?
Roborat
Wait, Mark Trail is still being published?
P!enapple
Is that an actual smile and giggle from Sarah?? (Or maybe just a rictus)
poor sal… So caught up in rebellion and opposition she resorted to this lol
Rabisch
Sarah is probably the only one able to understand that reference.
