I put cheap first, just so that would conjure an image of manufactured fake people. Like cheap RealDolls.
China also has horrible human rights violations in the manufacturing plants, working their workers beyond what is safe and sane. I’m very glad I had the privilege to be born into a financially secure family in an industrialized country.
They sure are. I like to call them whores because I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being a whore. Although they like to be called sex workers so we probably should call them that.
Willis, if you give us the fanservice this is so clearly setting up, I shall build a temple to you. It’ll have statues of you in dramatic, imposing configurations, everburning lanterns and everything.
Unless you’re of course you hold public office or have any sort of celebrity status… Or you’re in the clergy… or school teacher… or a parent who is caught in a sting.
Don’t be so sure. You’re making the incorrect belief that only desperate people who no one else will voluntarily want to have sex with, have sex with prostitutes. And he belief that Joe has standards.
I mean, do you know how many smart, handsome and charismatic men who can have any sort of woman, have been caught with hookers? Just look at Hollywood Celebrities.
Joe a 100% sexually driven person. He’ll have sex with any and all woman, regardless of age, personality or occupation. Sure, I’ll conceed that most of his sex life has been with girls who were more than happy to volunteer their services free of charge (at least that’s what we’re ASSUMING in this comic. Remember, alternate-universe. For all we know, in this universe he’s actually a virgin who just talks big).
But considering how blase Joe is regarding emotional connections, as opposed to physical ones, he could easily be one of those kinds of guys who’ll have sex with a prostitute, solely because he gets to have sex. It could easily be a check-list of woman who he wants to do before he dies.
Also, he’ll probably think the bragging rights to that are like a man’s badge of honor.
Never buy a gift the recipient is going to hate, such a pet tarantula for someone with arachnophobia or a copy of Lex Luthor’s autobiography for that Clark Kent guy.
Are you sure he PAID for the prostitute?
Because nothing would piss me off more than a friend picking up a prostitute for me and then leaving me with the bill.
Am I the only one who thinks panel 3 is kind of adorable? (Granted I’m kind of a friendship/bromance sap). Awww Joe, you’re almost kind of nice in more than simply looks and fanservice.
Granted Danny might not appreciate as much as you might want him to given the fact you still haven’t put on trousers and are topless.
(Or maybe he does… dang it the weirdo shipper in me howls for this!)
I wouldn’t recommend it. Joe’ll probably lure all the woman in, and then realize he has a chance with them, and thus will go home with them all, leaving you behind. Joe has that “every man for himself” air about him.
All the homosexual innuendo about Dan wanting Joe to put on pants, and here we have this image of Joe crouching over Dan, and nothing? Nothing? Come on, DoA readers! Even I saw this one and I’m not usually one to read homosexual subtext in anything.
(Also: Dammit, Willis, why are you so awesome? I just spent six hours archive-crawling Shortpacked! and I really don’t need to follow anymore webcomics.)
BRING OUT THE PROSTITUTES
not ones from Walmart, tho
Sorry, no choice. Walmart’s low prices have run all of the small, family prostitutes out of business.
And they’re all cheap and made-in-China?
Full Metal Jacket flasback
“Me soh horny, me love you long time…”
No, no! Joe get you numba one fuckee. Five dolla each.
Those are the best kind of prostitutes.
Also, inb4 Mike.
thats just disturbing, cause sex slaves form china and all countries really does happen..
The mention of that made my avatar sad.
I put cheap first, just so that would conjure an image of manufactured fake people. Like cheap RealDolls.
China also has horrible human rights violations in the manufacturing plants, working their workers beyond what is safe and sane. I’m very glad I had the privilege to be born into a financially secure family in an industrialized country.
@ Malph your avatar is always sad. It’s Emo Robin®
^ I meant to put sad(er), but I caught the mistake a second before it posted.
“…really does happen”.
True… about 1/100,000th as often as claimed by the media sensationalists who want you to donate money to their “cause.”
I think Walmart only has male prozzies. You need to go to Zellers for the female ones.
Danny doesn’t seem to opposed to this, somehow.
He is a red-blooded American male. He’s got reservations, but you know what they say, any port in a storm.
Whores are people too.
No they’re not
Yes they are. Sad, slutty people.
Some people REALLY like sex, and if people are going to pay them for that, then more power to them. ^_^
Actually whores are your mom.
All whores, we cloned her.
They are a kind of undead, like vampires and Mike. Live in the outside, dead inside.
They sure are. I like to call them whores because I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being a whore. Although they like to be called sex workers so we probably should call them that.
*The more you know*
What did Joe leave to get?
Looks like a shower basket.
SHOWER SCENE!
Willis, if you give us the fanservice this is so clearly setting up, I shall build a temple to you. It’ll have statues of you in dramatic, imposing configurations, everburning lanterns and everything.
I don’t know what you had when you first posted that comment, but it doesn’t quite work with a Joe one.
When I read this first I said out loud “Oh dear.”
You can be my Wingman any time.
Bullshit, you can be mine.
Joe is the best friend EVER
I hope Joe never puts on pants. :3
And thus Willis made it so, and the readers saw that it was good.
I’ve a friend that never seems to put on pants or a shirt at his house, despite having company over…
Oh, and as my avatar commands it.
He’d go pantsless for you for only a nickle.
How come none of my friends pay for prostitutes
oh hay, my avatars back
Who says he paid????
Because they’re smart.
They clearly aren’t your friends.
“Friends don’t let friends graduate high school with their virginity. Be a friend and by a hooker.”
Now we know why Joe didn’t bring up prostitutes yesterday when talking to Dorothy about Danny, because he’d already tried it.
You have let me down. You have the Mike avatar and haven’t already made a crack about someone’s mother.
I don’t have to bring up anything about anyone’s mother. Your mind does that for me. Bwa hahahahahaha!
Poor, at best. Try this next time:
“I talked about prostitutes already, so your mom was mentioned.”
Well, I’m not sure who rubbed off on who, but it seems that across universes, Robin and Joe have an affinity for prostitutes.
Hey, prostitutes are a universally-accepted solution for most problems.
Unless you’re of course you hold public office or have any sort of celebrity status… Or you’re in the clergy… or school teacher… or a parent who is caught in a sting.
Being caught is not part of the solution.
So you’re admitting that’s one problem that prostitutes can’t solve.
“who rubbed off on whom“
I’m taking AP English. I will kindly flip certain grammatical rules off happily, as a consequence. :’D
heh, “rubbed off”
oh what i got a mike icon
Clearly, the Avatar Deities favour you.
(Also, your response should obviously have been “I rubbed off on your Mom.”)
No, I did. For a nickel.
Ooh, a Noodle Incident!
I’m liking this Danny and Joe-centric week. It feels right.
So which “hot chick” is he going to see in the lobby?
…FAZ.
I want this to be true!
Good shot.
MAKE IT SO!
I hope they only see Dorothy in the lobby, oh yeah
I also want this to be true!
What don’t you want to be true?
That thing about the cat and the isotope in the box, probably.
The cat is neither dead nor alive!
Joe’s gonna find Danny some hot chicks and then he’s just going to… let him HAVE them? I somehow find this difficult to believe.
Not them. Just one. Joe will be keeping the others on the bus for himself.
That was my first thought upon reading this comic.
…and that’s when I bought the horse a prostitute.
I love this guy!
in retrospect, this might not be the ideal audience for that story
Appropriate icon.
Since when?
Joe Butt!
That is all.
Another…? Can we find out what happened there exactly? And second: I bet Joe got her on discount thanks to repeat business.
That seems unlikely, knowing Joe’s history. All the ladies enjoy Joe’s company voluntarily.
Don’t be so sure. You’re making the incorrect belief that only desperate people who no one else will voluntarily want to have sex with, have sex with prostitutes. And he belief that Joe has standards.
I mean, do you know how many smart, handsome and charismatic men who can have any sort of woman, have been caught with hookers? Just look at Hollywood Celebrities.
Joe a 100% sexually driven person. He’ll have sex with any and all woman, regardless of age, personality or occupation. Sure, I’ll conceed that most of his sex life has been with girls who were more than happy to volunteer their services free of charge (at least that’s what we’re ASSUMING in this comic.

But considering how blase Joe is regarding emotional connections, as opposed to physical ones, he could easily be one of those kinds of guys who’ll have sex with a prostitute, solely because he gets to have sex. It could easily be a check-list of woman who he wants to do before he dies.
Also, he’ll probably think the bragging rights to that are like a man’s badge of honor.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Nice one, Joe! (I somehow wouldn’t put that past him)
If he was thoughtful enough to spring for a hooker, what’s there to apologize for?
Never buy a gift the recipient is going to hate, such a pet tarantula for someone with arachnophobia or a copy of Lex Luthor’s autobiography for that Clark Kent guy.
Are you sure he PAID for the prostitute?
Because nothing would piss me off more than a friend picking up a prostitute for me and then leaving me with the bill.
Was that hooker before or after Dorothy came into the picture?
Surprise Twist: Dorothy WAS the hooker!
(… Slow, astounded applause.)
Well how else is she going to put herself through an Ivy League school?
Every good Ivy League-er knows that you can’t let others run your life. Dorothy wasn’t the prostitute- she ran the ring.
Yeah, but she’s not an Ivy League-er yet, so…
You know who’s gonna be in the lobby?
Dina. (Why she’s out of her room I don’t know. Dinosaurs in the lounge?)
Clever girl.
Am I the only one who thinks panel 3 is kind of adorable? (Granted I’m kind of a friendship/bromance sap). Awww Joe, you’re almost kind of nice in more than simply looks and fanservice.
Granted Danny might not appreciate as much as you might want him to given the fact you still haven’t put on trousers and are topless.
(Or maybe he does… dang it the weirdo shipper in me howls for this!)
Given Willis’ track record of filling up his casts with gay, you may not have to wait too long to get your wish.
Am I alone in thinking Joe would sound like Patrick Warburton?
Also, Danny should see only Ethan when they go down to the lobby!
Ooo! Or Mike (who in his assholery and foresight, forced all the girls out of the common area).
Joe in that final panel nearly killed me. The look on his face is so fantastic.
FAAAAAACE!
Not enough, Joe. Clearly, not enough.
Ah Joe, you haven’t changed/reverted/??? much from the other comics, have you?
I wish I had a wingman like Joe.
I wouldn’t recommend it. Joe’ll probably lure all the woman in, and then realize he has a chance with them, and thus will go home with them all, leaving you behind. Joe has that “every man for himself” air about him.
Ahm a little scared about who Joe’s gonna pick up in the lobby.
ACK! Im Roz!
Smile for the webcam?
All the homosexual innuendo about Dan wanting Joe to put on pants, and here we have this image of Joe crouching over Dan, and nothing? Nothing? Come on, DoA readers! Even I saw this one and I’m not usually one to read homosexual subtext in anything.
By “innuendo” I mean “outright saying it.” I’m not sure why I called it “innuendo.”
Don’t worry about it. Even innuendo gave up being subtle a long time ago.
I love Joe’s indignation in the last panel.
I don’t see how Joe would be a good wingman. It seems like they’d go out, and everyone would go to Joe.
Danny just doesn’t have a lot of charisma right now.
He’s got to punt the fuglies somewhere.
Doesn’t that go against finding Danny a hot girl?
Also, with the betting who will be down there, I’m going with Joe and Dorothy having arranged for Joyce to be there.
…Never change, Joe. Never change.
(Also: Dammit, Willis, why are you so awesome? I just spent six hours archive-crawling Shortpacked! and I really don’t need to follow anymore webcomics.)
whoreswhoreswhoreswhoreswhores
Heh, I heard Patrick Warburton’s voice in the last panel. I see I was not the only one. Also, love the FAAAAAAACE that Joe makes.
Now I hear it. I don’t know how good that is.
I honestly don’t know why, but in my head, Joe sounds like the voice of Chef from South Park.
This is probably a sign of a grave mental defect.
If Joe is Danny’s wingman, then Dan’s Mavrick and Joe’s Goose.
And we all remember what happened to Goose.
Or would Joe=Iceman, and thus his assholeness be suddenly explained??
It just occurred to me that this girl he’s going to try to get him is Joyce…
MANLY PICNIC.
This sounds like the greatest untold story, involving the prostitute, Silly String, a car chase, and a small fire.
“And thats when I tried to buy the horse a prostitute.”
I love Danny, maybe because I am a Danny.
Joe probably waited to apologize until after he had sex with the prostitute.
