Not necessarily. He could try and exploit this whole thing, to where he ends up with a reality show on Fox or VH1, and then spends his life as a joke, but a joke who’s racking in the money for some reason.
I honestly suspect Willis gave Roz and Robin a big sister who’s a congressperson. I base this suspicion on the logical fact that I want to see a teen-aged Robin.
I feel like I’m missing something obvious here. Aside from the fact that it might result in a minor political scandal for Roz’s sibling, how is this situation bad for Joe?
No I’m more imagining the Congresswoman coming to IU to talk with her sister about appropriate behavior when, on her way in, she sees Leslie (clad in a red, one shoulder, dress) and the crowds part…they walk towards each other…the meet-cute is awkward yet polite. Robin is dragged away by the security guards and Leslie and Robin pine for each other as they are separated…
What makes you think it’s Leslie who would necessarily take Robin’s name? Sure, they said “Congresswoman DeSanto”, but gay marriage is a hot issue, so maybe it’s Robin who kept HER name for professional purposes.
I dunno… Without Ethan being in Robin’s life as a target for banging, what are the chances that Robin would have ever perused Leslie, and eventually realized she was bisexual/Lesbian? I mean, if it wasn’t for Ethan, she never would have approached Leslie.
We interrupt this webcomic to bring you this breaking report– Nerds copulate! We take you now to the scene where the only remaining evidence was a crusty sock and some duct tape…
MANLY COMBINING!!! i’m sorry, I just started watching Gurren Lagann a few days ago and am at episode 20…it’s so good and I’m hyper addicted at this point haha, carry on with the communitizing
: )
It’s not trouble as in “I’m going to jail.” It’s trouble as in “I’m going to be constantly pestered by a group of some of the most annoying and irresponsible people on earth,” (ie. tabloid “journalists.”)
All David Willis comics will now revolve around differing sextapes. The subscription Walky strips will roar back to life with the amazing sex tape wedding storyline. 😀
Do you read Spider Robinson’s Callahan Chronicles? Because those stories are the ONLY reason I laughed at your comment and knew what you were referencing. 🙂
I’ve no doubt Roz had Joe switch positions no less than four times that night, at least one of them putting her on top. It’s not a proper tape without that sort of variety.
Joe has a history of being a man whore. So, she, along with a majority of her high school, probably walked him on him and some girl going at it in an vacant class room. 😛
It’s been called, but I’ll reinforce–Danny is the one visible on the tape as a face, even though it will be obvious he did nothing, he gets the trouble. WE KNOW YOUR GAMES, WILLIS
So how did Robin get elected into Congress in this universe? What was her political stance? Still Star War’s necrophilia toys? Transformer Toys? Batman?
And it really is adorable how naive Joe is. I mean, in this day and age of information and technology there is no such thing as privacy. Although I have to ask WHY Roz filmed sex with herself and Joe. I mean, as professional camera whore, doesn’t she need to get a waiver signed by him so as to avoid legal liability of invasion of privacy like that? I know a couple of guys who do porn, and they need waivers and stuff signed before they can start filming.
Unless of course, Roz isn’t charging for the videos like she does in the Shortpacked! Universe. If she does this for the fun of it, and doesn’t make money off it, she wouldn’t need a waiver signed. But she is still liable legally to be sued if Joe wanted. Which you know he won’t.
Ummm, what’s up with Joe’s collar in panel 2? Was he originally supposed to be facing to the right and something got messed up when turning him, or did he buy his shirt at the Escher museum?
Ah. Indeed I was, thanks. TBH, although I can see now that it is his finger (especially given the context of what he’s saying in that panel), I still have to work at it to see it as anything but his neck, with an extraneous piece of green fabric in the middle.
Completely off topic, but there appears to be a tiny smiley face at the very bottom left hand corner of this page… Is that still there or is the sleep deprivation starting to get to me at last?
This is going to be buried in the comments now, but I’m calling it; Joe is the red herring and Danny is the person who has been ‘caught’ sleeping with Roz in an out-of-context shot of them together after she slept with Joe.
Yes, Joe, the retardo is you. Although that’s not the preferred nomenclature. “Developmentally disabled-o”, please.
That should be a character on Jackass.
It was, but his real name was steve so it just got shortened to steve-o
I chuckled at this.
+1
Or you know, whatever method of compliment you choose to accept.
Kira likes this, etc.
Person-With-A-Developmental-Disabilityo
WELL, so much for Roz being a nicer person…>_>
Well, when did she say it wouldn’t be online? Also, girl’s got to pay those college fees somehow.
I think you’re supposed to say if something will be online, not the other way around :/
Knowing Joe, he probably stopped listening to Roz after “Let’s have Sex”, during which she explained about the videos
Oh, Joe. You are so screwed. And not in the literal sense.
Because the second sense doesn’t really have to be stated with Joe. His name is synonymous with sex.
that part already happened and what got him into this mess
And we got the video to prove it!
He got screwed because he got screwed.
Joe’s been Joe’d?
We’ve been over this before. He got Roe’d
Apparently in Willis universes sex videos are just free to post anywhere.
Truly, a better world.
In our universe, too.
It really isn’t hard…
Well, that’s disappointing. Not much of a sex video, then?
I see what you did there.
I also did it over here, but no one saw that.
I should sincerely hope not, otherwise accusations of attention whoredom would have to be pressed. 😛
Well, if you press it, you’ll get the wrinkles out.
The expressions in the last video.
I still like Roz. Still supporting that there’s no logic except I like the characters you shouldn’t like and dislike the ones you should.
Wait, the expression in the last “video”? I must see this video as soon as possible… for research.
Adorable.
Well, Joe is now going to have a stigma that will follow him for the rest of his life. He will be denied jobs. Laughed at. Made into a pariah.
But while he’s in college, he’ll get to strut and pretend to be the big man on campus.
Ridureyu, I think you’re suffering from a small misapprehension. You see, Joe isn’t the girl in the video.
This is painfully true.
Are you sure?
We already know Roz has some interesting interest.
bet he feels like it.
Not necessarily. He could try and exploit this whole thing, to where he ends up with a reality show on Fox or VH1, and then spends his life as a joke, but a joke who’s racking in the money for some reason.
? now its a congresswoman?
so is it Roz’s sister the fo’shizzler herself or not?
and i wonder if dorothy recognizes Joe by his Joe, or Joe by way of seeing Danny asleep.
It’s definitely Faz, then.
Congresswoman Fazette DeSanto.
Brain bleach.
Faz X Fazette ship? I shouldn’t imagine it, but the image simply cannot be banished.
AAAHHHH THE BRAIN BLEACH ISN’T WORKING!!!!! CAN’T GET IT OUT OF MY MIND!!!!
You’re not using enough. Rub the bleach on your head and body. And your Joe.
Yep, Faz would totally do himself if given the opportunity. Faz loves Faz.
I dub this the good ship Fazazzle, long may she sail. [smashes bottle of champagne against hull]
Fazazzle. So much win, and yet so much fail. Part of me wants brain bleach and the other part…. also wants brain bleach.
I think Dorothy recognizes Joe’s Joe.
How? Has he got a birthmark on it or something?
It would have to be Joe’s Joe because they filmed by taping the camera to Danny’s foot.
I honestly suspect Willis gave Roz and Robin a big sister who’s a congressperson. I base this suspicion on the logical fact that I want to see a teen-aged Robin.
I know that Joe said there was a video… but I still feel like, somehow, Danny might be the one implicated in this.
The camera was taped to his foot. It would be hard for him to really be in the shot.
“whoa. i know who’s sock that is.”
-dorothy
That awful, crusty, lonely sock.
“…And I’m sure they only ever made one like it!”
True. Ah, well. That’ll show me to try and guess things.
THAT GUY IS TOTALLY MARIO LOPEZ
OH NOES
Poor Mario…
Why the hell is Dorothy looking up sex tapes in the library? With Daisy?
Wait…
The guy with the Joe Gravatar approves this.
They’re college students. You really shouldn’t need to ask.
This comment makes Daisy’s immersed expression even better.
I think she just rated Joe a 4.
Daisy is into chicks, if I remember correctly. I think she’s giving Roz at least an 8.
Because they’re politically aware. Duh.
They must have read about the scandal and as it involves someone from their Uni, they would naturally be curious.
Sigh…..joe is such a friggin meathead….
Joe is such a friggin’ Joehead.
Joe is such a Joeing Joehead. Wow, a verbnoun.
When you’ve less futuresight than I, I’m sure you’re in a lot of trouble, says I. o.o;;
In the Media Circus, everyone’s a clown.
I feel like I’m missing something obvious here. Aside from the fact that it might result in a minor political scandal for Roz’s sibling, how is this situation bad for Joe?
Being the focus of a media frenzy is rarely pleasant, I imagine.
And apparently I’m Danny now. This is oddly appropriate.
I also see Joe as the sort of guy who would want to try and cash in on this scandal for money and to further increase the chances to ‘Joe’ girls.
I imagine Dorothy needs some brain bleach.
Dude, would Robin and Leslie be…
…MARRIED? Mindfuck.
…aand I just remembered what my gravatar is. Well then.
No I’m more imagining the Congresswoman coming to IU to talk with her sister about appropriate behavior when, on her way in, she sees Leslie (clad in a red, one shoulder, dress) and the crowds part…they walk towards each other…the meet-cute is awkward yet polite. Robin is dragged away by the security guards and Leslie and Robin pine for each other as they are separated…
SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
If they were married, then Leslie chose to keep her last name for professional reasons.
What makes you think it’s Leslie who would necessarily take Robin’s name? Sure, they said “Congresswoman DeSanto”, but gay marriage is a hot issue, so maybe it’s Robin who kept HER name for professional purposes.
I dunno… Without Ethan being in Robin’s life as a target for banging, what are the chances that Robin would have ever perused Leslie, and eventually realized she was bisexual/Lesbian? I mean, if it wasn’t for Ethan, she never would have approached Leslie.
Billie is missing an opportunity here.
Your mom is missing an opportunity. For a nickle.
With my penis.
An opportunity for what?
News story, I assume. She’s an aspiring journalist after all, and she’s totally not in on the Joe scandal…
She’s too busy getting plastered most likely to even notice.
FAAACE
Can someone explain to me why Dorothy would be viewing a video like that?
Daisy put her on the story??
College student. Slow news day.
she broke up with danny. she needs an outlet!
Maybe this will be Billie’s story… I can see the headlines now– “Nerds have nerd-sex. Other nerds watch. NERDS.”
What are you talking about? Nerds don’t have sex. Everybody knows that.
At least, Billie does.
That’s why it’s such a big story.
We interrupt this webcomic to bring you this breaking report– Nerds copulate! We take you now to the scene where the only remaining evidence was a crusty sock and some duct tape…
Sure they do. Haven’t you ever seen a Star Trek Wedding on the internet?
Willis comics: come for the spontaneous makeouts, stay for the community.
Damn straight.
MANLY COMBINING!!! i’m sorry, I just started watching Gurren Lagann a few days ago and am at episode 20…it’s so good and I’m hyper addicted at this point haha, carry on with the communitizing
: )
Eagerly awaiting Congresswoman Desanto to see how different her doppleganger is in this universe.
I keep saying… ex pro wrestler! A female Jessi Ventura!
I’m still not sure why Joe is in trouble for this.
You’ve never been hounded by people with cameras.
It’s not trouble as in “I’m going to jail.” It’s trouble as in “I’m going to be constantly pestered by a group of some of the most annoying and irresponsible people on earth,” (ie. tabloid “journalists.”)
Why would tabloid journalists need to talk to him to write a story about what he’s saying?
They just want pictures. And who could blame them? It is Joe, after all.
They just want to see his faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace.
Hahahaha
All David Willis comics will now revolve around differing sextapes. The subscription Walky strips will roar back to life with the amazing sex tape wedding storyline. 😀
Wait, what?
Couple of Steel: In Need Of Kleenex
Do you read Spider Robinson’s Callahan Chronicles? Because those stories are the ONLY reason I laughed at your comment and knew what you were referencing. 🙂
Best part: Danny’s foot gets an IMDB cameraman credit in the field of political pornography!
When I first saw the words Danny’s foot, I thought you were refering to a different part of his anatomy. 😀
I think we’re all missing the obvious question here:
Why does dorothy know what Joe looks like naked?
Assuming we can’t see his FAAAAAAAAAAACE.
I’ve no doubt Roz had Joe switch positions no less than four times that night, at least one of them putting her on top. It’s not a proper tape without that sort of variety.
Joe has a history of being a man whore. So, she, along with a majority of her high school, probably walked him on him and some girl going at it in an vacant class room. 😛
It’s been called, but I’ll reinforce–Danny is the one visible on the tape as a face, even though it will be obvious he did nothing, he gets the trouble. WE KNOW YOUR GAMES, WILLIS
“Wait, the retardo is ME?” T-shirts, $18.99 each at http://shortpacked.bigcartel.com/ .
Duct tape is the best sex tape of them all.
That’s the perfect Gravatar to say something like that with.
And the thumbs-up gesture in your Gravatar is perfect for the response.
Of course you do, Dorothy. The question is….Pfffft! Hahahahaha! Oh, I can’t! I apologize for nothing!
I just noticed that Danny’s hoodie seems to mark him out as a devotee of merciful Poseidon.
No, It is a Monogram of Indiana University’s initials. I U
Wait, merciful Poseidon has an entire University under his sway?
wait, so is it or is it NOT one of those videos that’s just a continuous taint shot? because for some reason i imagined it would be.
Perhaps Billie finally got her story
I can’t believe it took me three days to notice that Joe and Danny are wearing (basically) their classic Roomies! attire.
My only hope with Robin coming into the comic is that she’ll meet Leslie and we can get a version of the happy lesbian couple again >.>
So how did Robin get elected into Congress in this universe? What was her political stance? Still Star War’s necrophilia toys? Transformer Toys? Batman?
And it really is adorable how naive Joe is. I mean, in this day and age of information and technology there is no such thing as privacy.

Are you interpreting his finger as his neck?
O_o
Ah. Indeed I was, thanks. TBH, although I can see now that it is his finger (especially given the context of what he’s saying in that panel), I still have to work at it to see it as anything but his neck, with an extraneous piece of green fabric in the middle.
If the geometry’s still confusing you…
…just look at his FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!
Quick, you’ve been recognized! Flee!
Widest I think Joe’s eyes have ever been.
Completely off topic, but there appears to be a tiny smiley face at the very bottom left hand corner of this page… Is that still there or is the sleep deprivation starting to get to me at last?
OMG you’re totally right.
omg there IS a tiny smiley face! i wonder if it’s on all his comics?
This is not going to end well.
This is going to be buried in the comments now, but I’m calling it; Joe is the red herring and Danny is the person who has been ‘caught’ sleeping with Roz in an out-of-context shot of them together after she slept with Joe.
Murry’s Law strikes again.
This made me giggle.
You’d think half the campus cheerleaders would recognise him by now. Even if the video doesn’t show his face.
