Why? He’s seen as attractive by others, who are consensually giving him their contact info. All because of his upbeat attitude in a situation that would normally impact one negatively.
I need to stop commenting when I hit that crashy period before I catch my second wind… Which seems to have been granted by re-reading QC for the last hour….
I REALLY wanna see what his mother thinks of all this. I mean, yeah, Joe thinks being known for a sex video is the best thing ever, but I’d really laugh my ass off if his mother showed up in the dorm screaming “What the hell were you thinking you man?!”
Meanwhile… I’m rather curious as to who would actually consider going out on a date with Joe BECAUSE he made a sex tape.
The index finger looks fine to me, taking into account perspective, but I agree that the back of the thumb doesn’t dimple in like that, no matter what angle you have it at.
…the reporter does so write the headline. 90% of the time I’m stuck on an article, it’s because I’m trying to come up with a catchy-but-not-cliche headline. /journalist
My experience lines up with David’s. This was a source of great frustration for me, because I wanted to control all aspects of my articles’ presentation. They did let me have my way on a few pieces, but it was an experiment for them.
Not always true. My aunt works at a national newspaper, and I went into work with her one day – her JOB is to write headlines. The reporters just send in the raw text, and there’s an entirely different team who pretty it up and chop it to pieces.

Stick to “with my penis,” Joe.
Of cause he will stick with his penis, using any other body part wouldn’t be half as fun.
With his fist.
I stand corrected!
… with your penis.
You mean with his penis right? Cos I never loan mine out. 😛
Sweet! I have no life!
Oh, Joe. I love your faces.
Stay classy, Joe.
JOE JOE JOE JOE!
It’ll be hard. He has a full weekend ahead of him.
♫ Double double your entendre ♫
… yeah, yeaaaah, ♫ it’s so intense!
Oddly enough I am uncertain of what Joe is implying this time… I must be getting old.
I do and I’m a 19 year old that prefers the old stuff and sometimes act like a bitter old man.
So can you explain to me what Joe is saying?
Head = Oral Sex. Women are lining up to provide him with Oral Sex.
With his penis.
I really am getting old, I cannot believe that I wasn’t able to wrap my head around the oral sex angle.
You just need to practice stretching your jaw muscles.
That comment is sure to induce anyone’s gag reflex. :O
Wow, I had to read the comments to get that one. And I’m 19 as well, so I can’t blame age here.
Thanks, Dorothy. Thanks to your article, I’m now getting a lot of girls to do with.
Joe, you sex maniac. Don’t explain the joke because if you explain the joke there is no joke.
What if you explain the joke… with your penis?
Then you joke will be half-cocked.
Clever girl.
Thank you! I am well versed with issues involving the penis. 😀
I see what you did there.
Remember: A joke is like a puppy. If you take it apart, it dies!
Dead Puppy Humour
You’ve linked to tvtropes! You’ve doomed us all!
The more I link to TVTropes now, the more resistant people become to archive binging when they check out a link there.
It’s like a public service in a way.
Joe *is* the joke here.
Is it wrong that Joe is a hero of mine?
If it’s wrong to have Joe as a personal hero, I don’t want to be right.
Joe needs to get beaten up. Severely.
You can always hire Mike for the job.
Because Freckles is busy.
I’m curious, how many meme’s has DOA spawned so far?
No no, I’d say Joyce does a fairly good job of that. ^^ Mike gets to beat lots of people up, Joyce gets the pleasure of it so rarely.
He might get to beat up people but how often does he get PAID to do so?
For a nickel?
With his own femurs. On his FAAAAAAAACEEEEEE.
Why? He’s seen as attractive by others, who are consensually giving him their contact info. All because of his upbeat attitude in a situation that would normally impact one negatively.
Joe needs to be hurrah’d!
Joe can show thanks for Daisy writing the headline by encouraging more women to show more cleavage.
I second the motion.
“Ladies, I’d love to see a chest window.”
Did I miss what the title was, or has it not been shown yet?
If you mean the headline that Jo mentioned, it has been shown. Here’s the link:http://www.dumbingofage.com/2011/comic/book-1/06-yesterday-was-thursday/boytoy/
Right, yes, I remember this now.
I need to stop commenting when I hit that crashy period before I catch my second wind… Which seems to have been granted by re-reading QC for the last hour….
Thanks Aizat and Tristan. ^^
DESANTO BOY TOY SPEAKS OUT
I had to go back and check. It doesn’t seem quite as impressive as Joe is making it out to be, but then he’s the one who’d know, I guess.
He’s on the frontpage! That gets attention ya know.
I thought he was referring to the second part of the headline:
“It’s an open relationship, ladies,” says IU freshman
Joe is living his dream.
Dorothy’s nightmare!
On a completely different note, I love the way Willis draws the ‘Ooh!’ expression.
Reminds me of Doraemon.
I REALLY wanna see what his mother thinks of all this. I mean, yeah, Joe thinks being known for a sex video is the best thing ever, but I’d really laugh my ass off if his mother showed up in the dorm screaming “What the hell were you thinking you man?!”
Meanwhile… I’m rather curious as to who would actually consider going out on a date with Joe BECAUSE he made a sex tape.
Joe is almost like a celebrity now, that and the inference of his sexual prowess can be appealing to a number of girls in that respect.
And he isn’t using a pen to write that headline.
He’s using his penis.
his pen is writing that headline.
The pen is his penis.
The pen is mightier than the pork sword.
Ew, fingering seems to have finally broken Joe’s hand and it’s now stuck in that position.
Deflated thumb and the index finger with a 45 degree break…
The index finger looks fine to me, taking into account perspective, but I agree that the back of the thumb doesn’t dimple in like that, no matter what angle you have it at.
your mom’s in that line. Does he have a nickel?
He would, but Mike stole them just so he gets to do it himself.

I guess sometimes they do! In my limited experience in journalism, they didn’t. I did some Google searches to make sure I wasn’t crazy, and came up with this: http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/beltway-confidential/memo-media-critics-reporters-don039t-write-headlines-editors-do

My brother is a copy editor at a major newspaper – he often gets to write headlines, but never stories.
