    She wishes she was raised Mormon so she could get in on that too.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Mormons must get way more threeway action then.

      1. CanvasWolfDoll

        sadly not in this day and age…

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          So much for my idea of a new Mormon ad campaign then.

        2. Josh

          They already have the perfect ad campaign: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RD7vKmglHMc

        3. Plasma Mongoose

          Great ad, but not good enough for me to want to convert though.

  2. Resne

    Walky? More like Sulky.

    1. Aizat

      At least he doesn’t skips or else we should call him Skippy or Skips or something.

      1. N0083rP00F

        Sulky McSulkypants?

        ….. I will name him George, and I will hug him and pet him and squeeze him… …and pat him and pet him and… …and rub him and caress him and…

        [Oh god those BBunny scripts were racy]

    2. Josh

      Sulky? More like… ermm… GARY!

      1. Neospector

        No! Bad joke! Penalty corner for five minutes!

    3. Ziaheart

      Don’t make me sulky! You won’t like me when I’m sulky!

  3. Wonder Wig

    Is there a past-tense for shipping? I don’t think shipped works well. Departed?

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      How about the term Decommissioned, that works.

      1. N0083rP00F

        Dry docked? Sound painful though….

    2. That Damn Rat

      I believe discarded ships are usually referred to as being ‘sunk’.

      1. Ancestral Hamster

        Sighted ship. Sunk same.

      2. Plasma Mongoose

        Sunk suggests that the ship will never sail again, decomissioned ones on the other hand have the possibility of sailing once again.

        1. Wonder Wig

          Shipping events that happened before the first strip. I anticipate … for the past.

      3. stikibunn

        That ship has sailed!

  4. Plasma Mongoose

    Why so sad Joyce?

    1. Yotomoe

      She wants nicer shirts too…

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Ideally without the Butt-tacos.

        1. Tom Speelman

          But Butt-Tacos make everything better!

        2. Wonder Wig

          Tossing a Butt-Taco Salad?

    2. JA

      Deep down she wants in on a threesome.

      Damn you Joe for corrupting the innocent ones!

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Ryan ruined a lot of things for her.

        1. Yotomoe

          Mike ruined your mom for a nickel.

        2. Alex Stritar

          “Well, that party guy ruined guys for me. Well, guess I can becaome a lesbian sinner.” XD

        3. Andiemus

          Why am I always drinking when someone says something like that?

        4. The Aussie Bloke

          Because the universe has a sick sense of humour

        5. madd

          Because you have a drinking problem?

      2. Yotomoe

        Everyone’s innocent until proved guilty.

    3. Ancestral Hamster

      Her tits are no longer raging.

      1. Yotomoe

        However, the is a tantrum brewing within those bosoms the likes of which this college has never seen!!!

        1. Ancestral Hamster

          Yes! Let them burst forth! Inspiring other female bosoms to do likewise! Let there be a Boob Revolution!

      2. Plasma Mongoose

        When her mood deflates, so does her cup-size.

    4. Aizat

      Her pet goldfish just died. What do you think?

  5. SplashBoogie

    Does Joe own any of Dorothy’s shoes I wonder…

    Nah there’s no way right.

  6. Ancestral Hamster

    Apropos of nothing, but if Dina doesn’t have a set of these cookie cutters, she should.

    http://www.suck.uk.com/products/3d-dinosaur-cookie-cutters/

    1. CanvasWolfDoll

      apropos of that comment, if everybody ever don’t have a set of thos cookie cutters, they should.

      1. Yotomoe

        Why don’t I have dinosaur everything. Granted, my room is painted like a dinosaur, so I guess there’s that.

        1. Roborat

          You should paint your room like the inside of a dinosaur, that would be mega awesome. Or gross, could go either way.

    2. Plasma Mongoose

      I for one would be happy to sample Dina’s cookies. 😀

      1. Roborat

        So to speak.

        1. CWR

          Don’t speak with your mouth full.

  7. DiDi

    Oh Joyce… you shouldn’t have helped them get back together then if this was gonna bother you.

    Perhaps you thought Dorothy would eventually dump Walky right after?

    1. Tenn

      Yeah, that was kind of the whole point of it. “He can’t dump you! Now get back together so you can dump him!”

  8. Sir Robin

    Now I feel bad for Joyce

    1. Aizat

      I understand what Joyce’s been through safe for the dating a gay dude thing.

      1. Josh

        To be fair, she still doesn’t know he’s gay.

  9. Aizat

    For once I agreed with Walky: WHAT?

  10. Melvin Schlock

    I don’t think those tits will be calm any time soon.

    1. Yotomoe

      Their power will only continue to grow until they finally achieve maximum exceitedness.

      1. CWR

        You’re theorizing that her rack is about to reach a quantum state? Schrodinger’s sweater puppies?

  11. Joel Rice

    Ok, I admit it, I’m completely ignorant on the subject of human emotions so I have got to ask why does Joyce look sad?

    1. SplashBoogie

      I’d wager it’s because she’s being left alone. I mean…who does Joyce really have? Billie’s got Ruth and Walky, Sarah is unpresent for right now, Dina seems to just blend in the background, Sal’s off with Jason “studying” and Walky’s being molded into proper boyfriend material.

      So Joyce just has Joyce.

      Least that’s my two cents.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        Soon after this moment, Joyce discovers shoujo anime and she was never quite the same again.

        1. Roborat

          Yea, that can traumitize almost anyone.

    2. Bergina

      She’s sad cause Ethan has a bunch of shoes, therefore has banged a bunch of chicks.

      1. David

        hahaha

        1. diaivd

          ahahah

        2. a snow ʍousɐ

          silliw m divad?

        3. Joel Rice

          Does the fact that your laughing at this mean its the correct interpretation?

      2. Absolom

        Joyce’s Internal Monologue: “I have all these shoes and nothing to show for it… *sigh* When you wish upon a starrrrr….”

      3. newHelm

        this is hilarious. even better, my bro lives with a friend who is gay. They both have a lot of shoes, one banged a lot of chicks the other banged a lot of dudes, both fashioneastas.

  12. Uniqueantique

    You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.
    You can lead a Walky to store, but can you make him dress?

    1. Freezze12

      No shirt, no shoes, no ARGH PUT SOME CLOTHES ON

  13. Pivitor

    I think Dorothy is lowballing Joe’s figures here.

    I’d be offended if I were you Joe

    1. CWR

      Whereas previously she was lowballing Joe’s roommate.

  14. Steven

    Joyce is. . . Joyce needs to talk to someone. She’s definitely not in a good place right now:
    Her best friend is going out with someone she hates.
    She was raised in a protective environment, and then, within a few weeks of entering college, and is almost raped by her protective but anti social roommate, who is dealing with problems of her own.
    And she’s dating a guy who is gay, and while he hasn’t SAID they were in a relationship, has led her to believe it (through no malice, however).
    . . . She needs a chat with Mike. Mike seems to be using his jerkness for good in this universe.

    1. Aslee

      “and is almost raped by her protective but anti social roommate”

      I’m going to assume you meant ‘was almost raped but was saved by her protective…’ because otherwise you just said Sarah almost raped Joyce which is a very different recollection of events than I have.

    2. james

      we need hystroical Jesus or Reagan.

      1. Josh

        This sounds like a job for… MORMON JESUS!

  15. Dibullba

      1. Dibullba

        1. Pagannerd

          When I asked for sons!

        2. mrelegos

          When I asked…for sons!

        3. Josh

          You’re the saddest bunch I’ve ever met!

        4. james

          Gohan, I make a man out of you!….

          ohhh we are not doing the TFS version?…my bad.

        13. Yotomoe

          And you haven’t got a clue

        14. Regalli

          Somehow I’ll…

        15. Yotomoe

          Make a man…

        16. Dibullba

          OUT OF YOUUUUUU!!!!

        17. newHelm

          my daughter was just watching that as i put her to sleep, thanks people, now it’s stuck in my head again.

        18. Josh

          I’m never gonna catch my breath,

        19. Dibullba

          Say goodbye to those who knew me

        20. Josh

          Boy, was I a fool in school for cutting gym

        21. e.e.mc

          this guy’s got us scared to death!

        22. Aegon01

          Hope he doesn’t see right through me

        23. Josh

          Now I really wish that I knew how to swim!

        24. a snow ʍousɐ

          BEOWULF

  16. Josh

    Nope, turns out even Joyce’s sad face isn’t enough to make me sorry for her!

  17. GrrArg42

    awwww Joyce needs a hug. I hug Joyce.

  18. T Campbell

    Seriously, Walky, you walked right into that one. “What does MIKE know about BEING A DICK?”

  19. The Puzzler

    It just struck me. Last episode, Joe said that he owns six or seven shoes. This one, whatshername said that he’s had sex with at least one per pair.

    Logically, assuming it’s not a lot more due to the word ‘least’, then this means that Joe actually fails a lot at the whole doing the nasty with a number of people. Or prefers quality over quantity.

    1. Raius

      I think assuming it’s a lot more because of the word “least” is exactly what we’re supposed to do.

  20. mrlshade

    It actually looks like Walky’s managed to outswowl his sister in panels 1 and 2! Next thing you know, he’ll be smoking and crawling out of windows….

    1. Josh

      Jumping through windows*

  21. Tenn

    There’s something wrong with Dorothy’s face in panel 2.

    There, fixed it.

    1. Roborat

      No. Just, no.

      1. Tenn

        No love for trollface? Maybe I should’ve done Me gusta. 😛

  22. RealMonster

    I like this strip because Walky is unhappy.

  23. Bill Murphy

    So more shoes = more women.
    No wonder she’s pushing him to get a second pair. 😛

    1. Josh

      I’m sure Joyce would lend them some. 😛

  24. Melizza

    So Dorothy’s plan this whole time was to get Walky new clothes! Skank! She purposefully got his shoes lost so that she could get him to buy new clothing.

  25. Todd

    Dorothy is perpetuating the fallacy that manliness and banging a lot of people are connected. You can be manly while still choosing not to sleep around (or wanting to and failing). Or, like me, you can sleep with twice as many people as Joe and still be not-especially-manly.

  26. Maycroft

    Poor Joyce, looks like she needs a hug.

  27. zfshiruba

    Nice parallel, because over in the past of another universe, Joe is currently bongoing about manly shampoo. Obviously, that universe is pre-Axe.

  28. Bernard

    PUPPIES!

  29. Ray

    On the on hand, Walky really does seem like a man-child that would be more at home in kindergarden than university. On the other hand, I agree with what Scott Adams wrote in the Dilbert Principle, which was more or less that engineer/nerd type people don’t really care what their clothes look like as long as the minimum requirement of no naughty bits hanging out is met. As long as Walky has enough sense to dress up a little at, say, weddings, funerals, and job interviews, he’s got every right to dress casually around campus.

  30. Roborat

    Love that smirk in Panel 2. And Joyce looks so sad, I actually feel sorry for her now. Or perhaps she is exerting too much pressure when “calming her tits” and it hurts?

    1. begbert2

      Joyce is sad that Dorothy is happy. Specifically, happy with somebody else. She doesn’t get much sympathy from me.

      1. ADHadh

        Hey, other people being happy when you’re not is a good reason to be unhappy.

  31. Dr.Z

    It looks like Joyce has a sad. 🙁

    This gives me a sad. 🙁

    Have a sad with us. Pity party! :O

    1. james

      pity party leads to Pity orgy.

      1. Scot

        how would THAT get organized?

        “Join our pity orgy! You’ll be sad you came!”

        1. TheBenenator

          “You’ll cry . . . from your genitals!”

  32. an ancient indian burial ground

    DAMMIT WALKY YOU ARE LEARNING LESSONS BUT YOU ARE LEARNING THEM WRONG

  33. Bill M.

    I now am picturing Joe’s closets, and him having more shoes than Imelda Marcos had.

    1. Bill M.

      And now, I facepalm for missing yesterday’s comic.
