I think Billie should count this as a win. Sure, Walky was shirtless before she convinced him to let himself be buried in the sand, but Dorothy no doubt got a much better look at him thanks to that.
Sexual inuendo or religion belief that is not fundimental, either one work fine as a muffler on Joyce. Of course having Walky overhear her mean comment only compounds the embarassment.
Cartoons. You must watch at least six hours per day of cartoons.
I’m up to about four myself. Can’t say I’ve noticed any sweet abs developing yet, but I do have some soft blubbery growth in my stomach area. I assume this will convert into abs as my cartoon consumption increases, as long as I keep my McNugget intake up as well.
Nah, I think he works hard, he just doesn’t stress about it much. And he did make an effort for Dorothy, he was confident enough to offer her friendship, flirting, and cartoons.
Uhm…yes? Was it ever not? I have an extremely specific list of what I look for, physically, in a guy. Dark hair. Blue eyes, but bright brown eyes are acceptable. Thin face. Glasses are a huge plus. Clothes — not fashionable, but not slobby either. Physic should be less than impressive, but he shouldn’t be fat either. Good posture, very nice smile. He should ALSO be very intellectual and curious, and interested in science and/or math, and very kind, and yeah, financially independent. And interested in cooking and/or experimenting with food.
Physical appearances can say a lot about a person. The hair/eye color and thin face is a thing that’s entirely instinctual for me and entirely genetic for him, but most of what I select in the physical appearance of my dude says a lot about his personality. If he maintains good hygiene, he probably maintains his house. If he maintains his house, he can maintain his life. If he goes overboard in caring about his appearance — cologne, oversculpted figure, pricey designer clothes — well obviously looks are a bigger priority to him than experiencing the rest of what life has to offer. Glasses are an indicator that he’s intellectual, so hipsters have completely thrown me off my sexual track, because they’re fairly shallow as a whole. (I don’t know why glasses make someone seem smarter, they just do)
There is a layer of truth to superficiality. Dorothy values someone who takes care of himself, which a decent physique generally indicates, at least in the first few stages of a relationship when it’s all instincts talking. Danny was clingy and dependent on her, so she dumped him. Also, yeah, she’s probably looking for something easy after Danny.
It’s very sad to be jealous of a comic strip character who can eat whatever he wants and still be in great shape, whereas I work so hard at it but still can’t get rid of my gut haha.
Not as weird as peanutbutter and honey or ever weirder .. Toasted egg-loaf with honey, cheese and liverwurst, grilled of course … honey and cheese I could handle but the liverwurst? =/
Plus not all creationists are of the wacky Young Earth variety. Although I can readily believe that Joyce is one who’s been taught that ‘evolution’ is a dirty word and the world really was made six millenia ago.
Frequently the wackiest creationists and other off-the-rails believers will go non-denominational, because none of the ‘official’ denominations are wacky enough for them.
Hang on. This “sculpted out of caramel” phrase sounds like a bad thing! If you’re sculpted out of marble, it means your muscles are extremely distinct, well-shaped, and strong. But hearing “sculpted out of caramel” sounds to me like an amorphous blob, slow-moving, unable to hold its own shape, and sticky all over. That doesn’t sound attractive at all! Although it would make more sense in describing someone who only eats Mcnuggets.
I think you are on the right track, it kinda reminds me of that phrase “Built like a brick shithouse”, which for some strange reason is considered complementary despite the fact that brick shithouses are not all that nice to look at.
well if caramel is chilled and hardened to a certain degree it’s pretty solid and won’t really be that amorphous. There are different kinds of caramel.
Oh, are we troping? If they are both in the same universe it’s UST. Until it resolves obviously. But if one of them was more ficticional than the other, then yes, that would be PSL. No reason why a ficticional person can’t harbor (harbour?) that.
Nah, he seems to be over the breakup. Maybe Amber told him “I, uh, happen to know that Amazi-Girl is really only into, uh, other girls. Yeah. She’s gay. You should just give up on her.”
Dang, that was some creationism-burn that Walky pulled out there.
I honestly didn’t think he had that level of snark in him.
And Dorothy has a point. Who wouldn’t want some of that chiseled Walky action?
UH OH JOYCE PSL
Caramel? Tasty…
oh, that gravatar
Meh, I just have a weakness for caramel. Take that whichever way you want to.
“Take that whichever way you want to.”
I imagine the Joyce-sploosh-grav saying that in a different sense.
Caramel?
I thought Chewy was larger and hairy?
Like a grizzly-bear mixed with a gorilla?
She’s getting a lady boner. Now she doesn’t know what to think.
An unusually long lady-boner…
I believe the word she’s looking for is “sploosh.”
“Sploosh”? Peaches and Cream?
She likes the tingle.
Holes reference. Joyce must be friends with Zero
4th panel joyce needs to be a Gravatar. Please.
Got it.
Or not…
Disregard last post…
Each post is staring at the next.. and blushing..
Also, she wants to rub his creamy centre.
That… didn’t sound as gross in my head.
“Say, how many licks to the center of a Walkerton?”
One: applied sensually on a McNugget in his presence.
Well…I bet he’s sticky enough to have been.
mmmmmmmm…Caramel.
At least she knows what she likes.
And to add to that, does Dorothy like whipped cream with her caramel?
Walky may yet find out in the near future.
That will be one awesomely topped desert.
long stick of caramel with some cream on top.
😀
And with these words, the rule 34 folks are busy at works!
That will be one awesomely topped desert.
long stick of caramel with some cream on top.
😀
Caramel McNuggets.
So, who is it this time, Plas?
My grav? Greta Gravity from the wecomic Spinnerette.
What webcomic DON’T you read? 😀
I have about a dozen webcomics I check out each day, a few I check each week and about two dozen I check from time to time.
Ha I have about 50 I check every day, 130 I check every week (including the 50) 😛
Check out 8-bit theater. It ran for 9 years before the story line ended. Its a spoof of the original final fantasy
You HAD to go with Greta huh? No love for Mecha Maid? 😛
Greta has a certain gravitas … or at least, her chest does.
Greta Gravity has gravitas? Groovy.
Would certainly explain why so many pairs of eyes tend to drift in that direction.
And the bigger the chest, the bigger the gravity. Sort of an evil Powergirl
They’re Eezo boobs, yeah, I get it.
I’d say that she has “gravitatas.”
I likes what I likes!
Spinnerette! ftw.
I totally forgot about spinnerette… Thanks for jogging my memory.
Finally, you used one I knew. I love Spinnerette.
Congratulations.
Apparently linking from here + busty avatar = site goes down. 😛
Coincidence or the “Willis Fan Effect”?
I would do this when my little brother ordered apple slices and chicken nuggets. It was *okay*
Well, I was close.

The middle panel makes me so happy you don’t even
… And now I want to lick a webcomic character to find out if he tastes like caramel too. I have the strangest brain…
He probably takes computer screen or led lights
I suspect you’ve read Sideways Stories from Wayside School.
And liked the flavor “Kathy”.
I dunno. I’ve heard Mauricia flavor is pretty good.
Btw, Your nose a ferret.
But I thought my nose a hamster! (And why do I remember that after all these years?)
Everyone is except Sammy. Because he’s dead.
rats
It’s Walky. He probably tastes like Nachitos.
What other webcomic characters would have peculiar tastes?
Would taste peculiar, I mean.
Grace, from EGS. I think he would taste suspiciously like squirrel…
Well, being tolougol seyunolu, I wager she’d taste different depending on form.
Squirrel one moment, cat-hedgehog the next, Tedd-flavor lator…
Mike probably tastes like evil.
Unless you’re making out with him; his tongue has the distinct flavour of your mother.
i heard taye diggs tastes like chocolate.
That’s what his wife says.
snaps fingers* Joyce. My eyes are up here
In panel 1, was he wiping his mouth with his hoodie?
putting his hoodie on, it’s supposed to explain why he’s showing some skin, must be a small-sized shirt to show much skin when putting a hoodie on!
Well, it WAS tied to his waist. Maybe he pulled them both together?
And he got this sculpted physique by eating McNuggets?
Mcdonald’s is SO bad for you that eating a lot of it has the opposite effect of eating a lot of junk food. your body atrophes and dies off.
I get the impression that Walky is one of those lucky individuals who has a fast metabolism.
Walky as the Flash? Hmmmmm……
More like Jughead from Archie comics.
And don’t forget he’s like 17 or 18 here, right? Young enough for terrible diet to not really affect physique and metabolism much yet.
Well he is going to discover that by the last year of uni, he will need to start watching his diet.
Um, speak for yourself. I’m Walky’s age and I have a massive gut to put on before I go to college and the Freshman 15 makes it even more difficult.
I think Billie should count this as a win. Sure, Walky was shirtless before she convinced him to let himself be buried in the sand, but Dorothy no doubt got a much better look at him thanks to that.
That’s a very good point.
One of the ads on this strip was for a Milky Way candy bar. I found it appropriate.
All I have is a Freedom Funiture ad and a company that designs logos.
I got some ad for an All-Bran bar. How do they know how old I am?
I know I checked out a Freedom Funiture site a few days earlier, maybe you did the same with All-Bran or articles mentioning fibre perhaps.
Ooh, thanks for the heads up — I didn’t even realize I had AdBlock on.
(So naturally I get no such interesting ads. But still.)
Joyce just contracted a case of the Joe-Eyebrows!
I just want someone to walk by and take them. so they can be TWICE as emotive.
It should be dubbed as “Joebrows”
I had overcome my Joyce love addiction and you come with this??
Shy Joyce is beautiful <3
Damn, Walky. You got DEM PECS.
Walky certainly isn’t at the bottom of the PECSing order.
he’s ABout to be at the top if he keeps this up
PECS PECS PECS PECS PECS PECS PECS PECS PECS PECS
Joyce, Joyce… what’s wrong with “smart aleck”? It’s only been around for more than a century, and avoids referencing any evil, evil body parts…
A high school friend of mine used to use the expression “smart-butt” ironically. As well as “bad-butt.”
It was kind of a weird-butt tendency, but whatever.
Sexual inuendo or religion belief that is not fundimental, either one work fine as a muffler on Joyce. Of course having Walky overhear her mean comment only compounds the embarassment.
Also, he’s not sculpted out of caramel. He just spilled a bunch on himself before the beach trip.
So Walky’s muscles are really just strategically placed dried sauce?
and just like that Yotomoe got an idea.
A stupid idea
Yotomoe got a stupid, dumb, messy idea.
And his muscles grew three sizes that day. And were delicious.
Three sizes. That’s as many as four tens. And that’s terrible.
If the idea involves Ravioli, Fruity pebbles, Cherry Garcia and skillet, don’t try it trust me it won’t end well for you.
Do I… do I want to know?
No, no, Skrillex, not Skillet.
Skittles?
Taste the rainbow, man.
No I meant “a skillet” also you don’t want to know, I will say well I was not directly responsible I was involved.
Is it making a 1:1 scale model of Walky out of caramel?
Since no one else has mentioned her yet, what’s Roz’s deal in panel one? she looks worried about something.
“Hmmm, did I mix up the vibrator I wear as a hat with the one I don’t again?”
Or maybe concerned about Dorothy’s rage reaction to her conversation, and Joyce’s desperate “drop the subject.”
Ain’t Roz’s first rodeo. She can do simple social arithmetic.
Wondering what happened to Joyce is my guess. Remember the idea that “something” happened was brought up but quickly shushed.
did I restock on condoms? I think I need another 300 to last the week
This.
Forever and ever.
Hm. I wonder if I will be the first one to take that picture and make a simple “It’s simple. We kill the Batman.”
You mean panels 2 and 3, right? I can see it.
But it has to be “We kill a man dressed like a bat”.
walky did have a pretty sweet set-o’ abs
So he gets As without trying and has a great body despite eating all those mcnuggets
Shit I want whatever secret he has
Cartoons. You must watch at least six hours per day of cartoons.
I’m up to about four myself. Can’t say I’ve noticed any sweet abs developing yet, but I do have some soft blubbery growth in my stomach area. I assume this will convert into abs as my cartoon consumption increases, as long as I keep my McNugget intake up as well.
And make sure they’re good ones. Bad ones are not good for you.
Walky doesn’t have to do anything ever and good stuff will fall into his lap. He could take a nap and win the nobel prize.
Nah, I think he works hard, he just doesn’t stress about it much. And he did make an effort for Dorothy, he was confident enough to offer her friendship, flirting, and cartoons.
And now Joyce has to see for herself… Dorothy… good job 😉
See? When you come down to it…it’s always about the looks. Even with the women. =P
Also: Just wait, Dorothy. Wait until he’s in his 30s and then see if his abs get along as well with his McNugget habit….
Correction: It’s often about the looks. Some of us, of all genders, are truly not bothered one way or the other.
Aaaand the Joe grav makes that comment seem somehow creepy. Fantastic. 😛
And women think men are shallow.
Well, to be fair, we are.
Amen to that.
I love a woman with big, broad interests.
And tracts of land, yeah?
I too am interested in a woman with a large financial portfolio and large amounts of land. It would be perfect for my tree farm!
What, like you all weren’t thinking the same!
Rhubarb actually …..
Uhm…yes? Was it ever not? I have an extremely specific list of what I look for, physically, in a guy. Dark hair. Blue eyes, but bright brown eyes are acceptable. Thin face. Glasses are a huge plus. Clothes — not fashionable, but not slobby either. Physic should be less than impressive, but he shouldn’t be fat either. Good posture, very nice smile.

What is Roz thinking about?
Why wasn’t Dorothy and Walky asked to leave Gender Studies when they interrupted the class for frivolous reasons?
Because they didn’t make anybody uncomfortable enough for them to ask them to leave.
That and, unlike Mike, they’re actually registered for the class.
Plus their interruption could be deemed helpful to the study, considering it was essentially about shucking prescribed relationship stereotypes.
“is that a real person sitting next to me, or is it a mannequin?”
It’s very sad to be jealous of a comic strip character who can eat whatever he wants and still be in great shape, whereas I work so hard at it but still can’t get rid of my gut haha.
My, my. Is Joyce imagining Walky’s pecs?
“Did you whisper to her that the world’s older than 6,000 years?”
OWNED. SUCK IT, JOYCE!
Don’t give her any ideas, now…
Oh yeah, she was definitely looking at his chest!
She wants a piece of that caramel.
Now I wonder how McNuggets dipped in caramel taste. But I’m almost afraid to try it because it might be delicious.
My daughter always seemed to enjoy it. But then, kids are weird.
Not as weird as peanutbutter and honey or ever weirder .. Toasted egg-loaf with honey, cheese and liverwurst, grilled of course … honey and cheese I could handle but the liverwurst? =/
Walky… she’s a non-denom not a creationist… and if she was there’s a certain dinosaur loving gal who would GLADLY try to change her mind…
Those terms are not mutually exclusive. I would know.
Plus not all creationists are of the wacky Young Earth variety. Although I can readily believe that Joyce is one who’s been taught that ‘evolution’ is a dirty word and the world really was made six millenia ago.
Frequently the wackiest creationists and other off-the-rails believers will go non-denominational, because none of the ‘official’ denominations are wacky enough for them.

well if caramel is chilled and hardened to a certain degree it’s pretty solid and won’t really be that amorphous. There are different kinds of caramel.
So of he keeps his cool and stays in shape he can hold himself together.
Zing.
…How is caramel slower-moving than marble?
“That guy I willingly walk to class with and eat lunch with everyday is SO AWFUL. You could do so much better. Come on Walky, it’s time for dinner.”
Yeah, but see, Walky is just someone she knows. She’s unused to anyone (much less, apparently, now herself) harboring PSL for him.
If one toon harbours lust for another toon, does it count as PSL?
Maybe if it happened in an alternate universe…
Oh, are we troping? If they are both in the same universe it’s UST. Until it resolves obviously. But if one of them was more ficticional than the other, then yes, that would be PSL. No reason why a ficticional person can’t harbor (harbour?) that.
Dude Joyce is totally checking Walky out in that last panel.
Also, Walky is a tall glass of chocolate muscle milk, and no one can convince me otherwise.
Joyce is feeling a little funny … like when she used to climb the rope in gym class.
Why don’t you just go talk to him, talk to him…talk to him……talk to him……..
Du-Dun-Dun Do-Doo-Doo-Do Do-Doo-Doo-Do
FOXY
In case we want to do things with that third panel? I think you mean “because”. 😛
First panel, bottom right: It’s TranDanny!
He’s taking the breakup really hard
Nah, he seems to be over the breakup. Maybe Amber told him “I, uh, happen to know that Amazi-Girl is really only into, uh, other girls. Yeah. She’s gay. You should just give up on her.”
I was gonna look back at the beach scene, but both the ad at the top AND the banner conveniently displayed it already! Thanks, Dumbing of Age!
Yeah, I noticed that too, and Dorothy staring from behind.
Now I have the Suzanne Vega song “Caramel” stuck in my head. Given the look on Joyce’s face, it seems like a pretty good fit. 🙂
That’s a bit odd. I would wager that 90% of internetians would get “caramelldansen”.
That was surprisingly cutting for Walky. I approve.
So he has a high butt IQ?
This makes my old soul cackle. Caramel!
Dang, that was some creationism-burn that Walky pulled out there.
I honestly didn’t think he had that level of snark in him.
And Dorothy has a point. Who wouldn’t want some of that chiseled Walky action?
The only thing better than Walky’s caramel pecs are Sal’s caramel boobs.
Yesssssss…… Shirtless Walky = Fanservice.
Flash of Walky belly == Fanservice!
Sculpted caramel. I must remember that one.
Now, all walky will have to do to completely break Joyce is to smack her butt and say… Now who’s the smart butt… Your butt is smarting 😀
floating eyebrows in the fourth panel! Woot!
So she really was checking him out at the beach.
lol, white chicks
‘Smart-butt’? Really?
Walky eats his weight in caramel every 10 months. Coincidence? Almost certainly…
Pale chick is pale.
Well joyce, still a lot better than most of the guys you’ve had a thing for.
Aaand I’m kinda hungry now.
