Dorothy, it may be time to purchase Joyce an “Other Dorothy”. With a heavy duty rechargeable battery. You already sent her a sexy selfie to use it with, so that step’s taken care of.
And maybe some noise-canceling headphones for Sarah would be a nice gesture as well.
I mean, a sapphic couple’s first trip to a sex shop is always a hilarious embarrassing experience – or it was when I first did it. Sex shops, at least some of them, have gotten a lot more woman-inclusive and generally comfortable since then.
Oh no. She’s getting stuck in something hard to hide, isn’t she. Do they still do those like “joke” animal sex dolls in those stores?
Okay, do NOT Google that to find out. The answer is no and that’s all anyone needs to see. Anyone got any of that uh bleach. I need to wash my eyes out.
Tactical switch outs like you’re playing competitive pokemon. Dorothy sets up barriers and Joe uses status moves. Then they just baton pass buffs back and forth.
Tan
Thinking more professional-wrestling-style, one of them trying desperately to writhe their way to the corner to reach out for the tag while Joyce continues relentlessly.
You know, it’s been bothering me that Joyce hasn’t explained what her situation with Joe is, yet, with Dorothy. The three of them really need to be in the same room and have a conversation about this.
Needfuldoer
She hasn’t even finished the conversation with him alone that she promised him they would.
JWK
That’s what humans need. Cartoon characters need drama and Joyce is providing it! Joe is in denial. When he finally breaks, Dorothy will be the only one to care. (Between the two of them.) Eventually even Dorothy will get tired of Joyce’s selfishness.
“…you see child, when you only see one set of footprints in the sand…that was, uh…that was you, hovering next to me, held aloft by the sheer vibrations of your out-of-control libido…like, I beheld all the sins of man, and all, but holy shit ma’am, I never saw anything quite like this.”
I have two and they’re kind of annoying because the stupid flexible stick part doesn’t effing stay where you put it. It’s actually a fight to make it stay in place.
Or maybe I just have bad ones idk.
Dot
That’s the book light experience. At some point you kind of have to upgrade to a lamp on your bedside table.
Just_IDD
Nahh, get a neck light. Its got two bendy ends so the one laying flat can hold up the one pointing at the page.
I mean yeah when I’m with someone I make crass sexual jokes and passes at them all the time, but my life doesn’t have to worry about things like pacing and “belaboring the point”

I agree with Dot’s answer, but I want add the caveat “not to such a degree that we’re too busy being horny to tell our girlfriend about important news like the fact that our ex recently offered us An Arrangement(tm) that she may not be okay with”.
Donovan
(*nodding and writing this on my clipboard like a diligent researcher*) I see.

Not usually with someone else in the room unless you’re really open. This is definitely the kind of thing you’d say to someone you’re in a sexual relationship with when you’re in private (and nothing else is going on) though.
The Queer Agenda [frog memes]
For most allosexuals, this’d be representative of a NRE (new relationship energy) phase or horny teenager phase. We usually calm down some after a while, it takes a lot of energy to maintain that level of hornt.
CK
Eh. When I’m with someone I too make crass jokes and sexual passes at them all the time, but most of the time it’s intended to be (and read as) just flirting. I’m not constantly trying to actually initiate sex for real the way Joyce seems to be here.
…That said, I *am* demisexual. But when attraction does hit, it hits *hard.*
Big Z
It can be, but not with nonconsenting folks in the room, and usually I can remember to do the things I’m supposed to be doing like “not leaving two of my three best friends hanging in various ways” and “not trying to have sex in front of my roommate”.
At this point, like them…hate them…I just don’t *care* anymore at this point. We’ve been reading the same “Joyce/Dorothy being “cute” together” on the same day since AUGUST.
I’ll gladly take ANYONE else at this point. Give me a week of Faz hanging out with Mary and Raidah. It’d just be nice for this day to finally be over and actually get to see the rest of the cast I come here to read about and have them interact with one another instead of yet *another* bed shot of…this
zee
I cannot wait for the inevitable time skip or whatever the fuck so this can finally stop being the main plot
RexLatro
I get that they’re main characters, but it’s still also a somewhat ensemble cast!
If I were a fan of seeing Lisa and Bart on The Simpsons, having the latest season consist of almost all Homer episodes (with maybe a scene or two per episode for the others) would drive me nuts. Especially if they consist of “Homer does something stupid yet AGAIN” episodes.
I’m just so damned tired of Dorothy/Joyce “being cute” strips (all taking place on the SAME DAY) since fucking August. I was so excited when it looked like we were finally moving on with Carla and potential family drama, only to still come back to this -_-
ElderlyMarxist
honestly ngl faz & raidah & mary is kind of interesting. terrible horndog teen with family issues, woman who has both Principles she is loud about while also being kind of manipulative/status focused, & The Worst Person In The World. i think raidah might tear mary a new one, for one. she’d almost certainly hate faz, but idk if any indication of exactly how bad things are for him would mitigate that. (mary might well be irked by him, although she’d probably try to recruit him to the manosphere or some shit.) also i’m just v interested in raidah ever since the protest strips.
RexLatro
Sorry, hit the report button instead of reply. There really needs to be more space between the two…
I didn’t think about the combination til I saw your reply, I was just trying to think of a combination that would cause an entire meltdown in the posts. But I like that breakdown, I guess another to add to the list of “please anyone besides Dorothy/Joyce”!
It’s been a great run, maintaining a slice of life strip for this long is impressive so it had to happen sooner or later but its clear the author has run out of ideas
It’s a shame but it was good, very good at times, while it lasted
I’m getting tired of hate threads. There are other things you could be doing if you don’t like it here.
Big Z
*gently escorts you out of the hater thread with a pushbroom*
Big Z
Also, more directly:
“I like this comic a lot, and I have liked pretty much everything the author has been putting out for decades, but this particular storyline seems to be not great.” is not anything like a reason to stop reading a serial story, especially because most of the folks in this thread have openly expressed their desire for us to switch to one of a number of actually-in-progress storylines we DO like.
I’m getting tired of whiners who can’t cope with people doing the equivalent of saying “Shut up, Wesley” every time he’s on screen while enjoying the entire rest of the damn voyage of the Enterprise. (to remind you that this is not even a new phenomenon in media consumption, it’s as old as Usenet).
Li
I mean, “this particular storyline is not great” isn’t what Harry Brownhole said, though? You are replying to a reply to Harry Brownhole, who said the comic’s had a good run but it’s over now because the author has run out of ideas, and “it was good while it lasted”.
(Fully support you nudging people out of this thread! But miscommunications make my scalp itch, haha.)

Yeah, but BarerMender’s response was “I’m getting tired of hate threads”, not any specific response to Harry.

“Joyce and Dorothy go to a sex store (to purchase Joyce an Other Dorothy)” is an all-timer premise for one of their stupid little adventures

Several of Dot’s recent gravatars have had pretty nice art. Even if I’m a hater when it comes to some of her comments, I can admit she has good taste.

I don’t think Sarah wants or needs to hear Joyce’s orgasmic squeals, and I’m bothered by the idea that Joyce isn’t considering that.
Unless she plans to kick out Sarah or she doesn’t plan to go that far.
But I don’t get the impression that Joyce is planning anything at the moment that doesn’t lead to orgasmic squeals.
Nono
Sarah could join the Sexile Couch Gathering where Danny used to go.
Sad part is that if you’re rooming with someone in college, SOMEONE is likely going to get sexiled at some point.
