it may not be one yet, but her subconscious obviously wants to, then again if this is anything like roomies, she’s probably in utter denial over that fact.
He was in Universe 1. If he’s not in this one, that’d be an interesting twist. Perhaps he’s just a really big fan of Doctor Who, so he uses the accent and wears a bow tie.
Whatta dork. I bet he posts in comment threads with some stupid name like The_Doctor and has a picture of a sonic screwdriver as his avatar. Some people are losers like that.
I thought it was already established in DoA but I don’t remember when, and since I don’t really know the other series, I’m certain it had to have been revealed somewhere in DoA.
30’s kind of old to still be a TA, assuming they’ve started TAing at the usual age. A professor is more likely to pick a younger person with more potential and momentum.
There is no ‘normal’ age: about fifteen percent of my fellow TA’s (in English: we tought the ‘service courses,’ so there were about thirty of us) were in their forties, going back to school for an advanced degree. But Jason doesn’t look to be one of those individuals. I would’ve guessed him to be a little younger: twenty-one or so. That would explain his pretentiousness; quite a few TA’s that age are desperate to be taken seriously.
The TA’s I dealt with when going to university were not much older than the students, maybe 5 or 8 years older on average, there was the occasional older grad student kicking around, however.
Probably by actually being a different character. Sure they have improbably similar looks and demeanors, but I am a veritable clone of a young George Clooney, so it’s certainly possible.
I’m also a billionaire playboy philanthropist and a mensa scholar, incidentally.
I dunno, my boss was a grad student (just finished his Ph.D this year) and he was a TA on the side while working on his degree, and he’s like 30-something, probably mid-30s.
And below it you’ve written “It’s is dangerous to travel alone, here, take this.” I’m glad you corrected the original, though; I thought that maybe I had been misreading the meme all this time.
She’s a collector. She has a british dude cabinet where she keeps all her vintage british guys. But she doesn’t care much for keeping stuff mint in box.
Come on, Jason, you’re like twice her size and she hasn’t got alien superpowers in this universe. If you can’t prevent her from dragging you across campus by your sweater vest, you deserve whatever she does to you.
Jason’s is a gentleman, so he dosn’t fight back. Besides, I rather think the ‘old boy’ likes it, what what! Pip Pip cherrio and all that. Wasn’t the original Jason raised in London?
I assume he’s joking, but sometimes Walky seems immature enough for me to believe he really thinks anyone five years older than himself is ‘old.’ There are some people don’t grow out of that until they hit twenty, though, so I guess it’s understandable.
Dotty better watch it: Walky picking on Joyce like this, especially since he does seem immature, suggests he ‘likes’ her. If the Ethan fiasco blows up right when Dotty’s climbed up on her high horse again, things might get interesting.
If they were concerned, then there is not one among them who would dare to force Sal to unhand him. At best, they could have someone with their back to the two discreetly dial for security, then call Sal and Jason over and stall for time while waiting for help to arrive, making small-talk about the subjects they like or telling jokes or something…
She probably will. As seen in the Joyce-brings-Mike-along-to-punch-Joe-story, The Willis sometimes plays these things for laughs, but usually puts some sort of consequence at the end.
I’d agree except it doesn’t really look like he minds all that much.
There have been other cases when people have minded being victimized a LOT more, and nothing came of it. I’m starting to think that Willis hasn’t got around to drawing up a character model for the campus police yet.
So in panel 2 Sal is clearly grabbing Jason from the front.
then in panel 4 she’s practically grabbing his ass.
I would have thought that she switched in panel 3 to avoid making it look like she was kidnapping him, except that Jason seems to think it’s obvious that hes being kidnapped.
Silly Jason, it doesn’t count as ‘transported against your will’ unless you let your legs go limp and make her drag you. Maybe cling to a desk or lamppost or something, yell for security/police…
Now, if she’d chosen a certain crushable /different/ part of you to grab onto and drag under threat of squeezing, you’d probably have no signficant choice. Then again, you wouldn’t be able to get past the first few syllables of saying that sentence out loud, either, reduced to just wailing mentally and making frantic eye-signals calling for help while her gaze was diverted.
*looks at the panels again* …Hmm, now I’m curious. Did she let go of the front of his vest (theoretically giving him a chance to run for it), or did she do a grab-with-right-arm,-reposition-left-arm action-chain that sounds as though it would be nifty/amusing to watch?
Either way, realistically speaking it’s just his pride anyway requiring that he put on a show of unwillingness, while actually he’d readily carry her around on all fours like a horsey if she willed it…
Loading ...
Quite Jason, you don’t speak to the main characters unless spoken to.
Quiet*
Quite.
Indeed.
Pip-pip, cheerio, bob’s your uncle and whatnot. THAT’S the ticket.
Jolly good my fine old chap. ^_^
Quite.
Hairs on a bobbin, old bunt. Hairs on a bobbin.
Tally-o!
Harumph harumph…
mmm, quite, quite.
Just… a little lower Sal…. you know you want to! X}
Augh beat me to it!
Methinks Jason protests too much. Sal doesn’t have a gun… She can’t really transport him without some co-operation on his end.
That would involve getting his rather dapper outfit dirty.
Leading a guy around like that on a college campus?
Looks like an ideal yandere couple to me.
That looks an awful lot like a butt grab
I can only hope Jason’s butt isn’t THAT high up.
His pants are saggin and his shirt is long
it may not be one yet, but her subconscious obviously wants to, then again if this is anything like roomies, she’s probably in utter denial over that fact.
Only if you butt is where your kidneys should be.
Yowch!
Is Jason of the… British persuasion? Or does he just affect such an accent as an… uh, affectation?
He was in Universe 1. If he’s not in this one, that’d be an interesting twist. Perhaps he’s just a really big fan of Doctor Who, so he uses the accent and wears a bow tie.
Whatta dork. I bet he posts in comment threads with some stupid name like The_Doctor and has a picture of a sonic screwdriver as his avatar. Some people are losers like that.
I love you Doctor Who, and I haven’t even seen any of your episodes.
I didn’t realize Jason was British either.
The more you know
And knowing is half the battle!
GI-Joe!
I thought it was already established in DoA but I don’t remember when, and since I don’t really know the other series, I’m certain it had to have been revealed somewhere in DoA.
It’s Indiana I’m pretty sure nobody cares.
Wonder if Jason’s also pissed Walky thinks he’s old enough to have a college-age daughter.
I would take it as a complement as it suggests that he was able to lose that pesky virginity at such a young age.
You mean six?
Jason is only 24? I thought he was at least 30.
Although, losing your virginity at six is QUITE the accomplishment. I’d put that on my resume.
30’s kind of old to still be a TA, assuming they’ve started TAing at the usual age. A professor is more likely to pick a younger person with more potential and momentum.
I think of DoA Jason as about 23 or so.
Thanks, I wasn’t familiar with TAs let alone their normal ages.
There is no ‘normal’ age: about fifteen percent of my fellow TA’s (in English: we tought the ‘service courses,’ so there were about thirty of us) were in their forties, going back to school for an advanced degree. But Jason doesn’t look to be one of those individuals. I would’ve guessed him to be a little younger: twenty-one or so. That would explain his pretentiousness; quite a few TA’s that age are desperate to be taken seriously.
No, no. That’s just Jason
The TA’s I dealt with when going to university were not much older than the students, maybe 5 or 8 years older on average, there was the occasional older grad student kicking around, however.
You say that, but back in ol’ England most of our TAs are 60+.
Maybe that’s why Jason is in this godforsaken Queenless country
Poor chap!
Actually that does raise a good point. If Jason is orginally from a diffrent universe, how can he be in this one too?
Probably by actually being a different character. Sure they have improbably similar looks and demeanors, but I am a veritable clone of a young George Clooney, so it’s certainly possible.
I’m also a billionaire playboy philanthropist and a mensa scholar, incidentally.
I dunno, my boss was a grad student (just finished his Ph.D this year) and he was a TA on the side while working on his degree, and he’s like 30-something, probably mid-30s.
5th panel Joyce’s face is made of sneer and awesome.
5th panal Dorothy’s face is a bit creepy.
“panel”, damn it.
Mistakes will happen.
I’d rather correct them myself than wait for someone to mock me for making errors – believe me it happens way too much on the internet.
Is that your old Saya gravatar?
*mock*
But of cause, I tend to recycle gravs most of the time and only occassionally make new ones.
I feel compelled to point out that it’s “but of course”.
Between today’s and yesterday’s punchlines, Walky’s two for two in making Joyce scowl at him. I wonder if he’ll pull off the Hat Trick on Monday.
Again I see this ending with Jason and Sal having sex. Nothing is convincing me otherwise
Joyce’s eyes in the last panel remind me of Dexter’s glasses.
You know what must be done, Jason. You must free yourself of the sweater vest.
Jason’s Sweater Vest/Joyce’s Sweater Vest is my new OTP.
Walky’s Pajama Jeans/Sal’s Motocycle Jacket.
Does that count as incest?
Depends on the state. 😉
How did you do that winking smiley? 😉 Like This?
Just like that. 😛
Just a quick edit of Panel 2
“You have my British dude.”
“And my dinosaur hat.”
“And my penis.”
“And my FAAAAACE!”
And my femurs!
And your mom…….for a nickel.
I fixed the error in my edited picture.
And below it you’ve written “It’s is dangerous to travel alone, here, take this.” I’m glad you corrected the original, though; I thought that maybe I had been misreading the meme all this time.
The lesson here is never to rush your photoshops.
Well, he is STIFF like a wooden sword.
Feel free to misinterpret that statement.
THIS IS MADE OF AWESOME!!!
(both versions)
Thanks, I joined tumblr cos it’s the social networking website you join when you don’t really want to join a social networking website.
I thought that was Google+
Poor Jason, no one remembers him. 😛
who?
You know, what’s this name.
He should get a doctorate.
So he would be Dr. W…. Oh, wait, I get it!
A doctorate….I rather have a Masters….
so he is the M. Bison of this universe?
Don’t compare Robert Walpole here with that random dude Zangief.
From the way Walky is not reacting, you’d think this was a regular occurance with Sal.
This isn’t the first man she’s forced home.
She’s a collector. She has a british dude cabinet where she keeps all her vintage british guys. But she doesn’t care much for keeping stuff mint in box.
The best way to keep a Brit in top nick is to allow him to wear tweed.
Off course. Mint in Tweed Brits can sell for a tidy profit.
Oh hey, Joyce is good at math!
… I keep forgetting that for some reason.
Probably cuz she’s having so much trouble putting 2 and 2 together when it comes to Ethan.
I can’t recall, who do we know from universe Prime with the last name Rees? This is gonna bug the crap out of me until I find out.
Alan, our alien adept.
I thought that was who it was.
inb4 Jason says Math instead of Maths as is customary of the British.
Come on, Jason, you’re like twice her size and she hasn’t got alien superpowers in this universe. If you can’t prevent her from dragging you across campus by your sweater vest, you deserve whatever she does to you.
That, and she had to briefly let you go just recently. In the first strip, she’s dragging you by the front of your sweater.
When you run into Walky & Co, it’s from the back. If you really wanted to run Jason, you missed your window.
Pretty sure size is no indication of strength.
… also pretty sure Jason is just that puny :v
Any lower, Sal and you’ll be grabbing Jason’s behind.
…I want to ship this. MAKE IT STOP.
Yessssss. JasonXSal has always been my favorite ship.
Jason’s is a gentleman, so he dosn’t fight back. Besides, I rather think the ‘old boy’ likes it, what what! Pip Pip cherrio and all that. Wasn’t the original Jason raised in London?
Concern for violations for person and property? Not at this school.
Yeah, we have an abusive RA, a sex fiend, a scarred sex fiend, a guy who punches people for fun and oh yeah, a masked vigilante.
…..So how is this different from walky-vrese 616?
Drama is not as badly written.
[obvious]
No actual aliens.
[/obvious]
…Yet.
I assume he’s joking, but sometimes Walky seems immature enough for me to believe he really thinks anyone five years older than himself is ‘old.’ There are some people don’t grow out of that until they hit twenty, though, so I guess it’s understandable.
Dotty better watch it: Walky picking on Joyce like this, especially since he does seem immature, suggests he ‘likes’ her. If the Ethan fiasco blows up right when Dotty’s climbed up on her high horse again, things might get interesting.
The man wears a bow tie. That means he’s at least 900.
If they were concerned, then there is not one among them who would dare to force Sal to unhand him. At best, they could have someone with their back to the two discreetly dial for security, then call Sal and Jason over and stall for time while waiting for help to arrive, making small-talk about the subjects they like or telling jokes or something…
So at what point during this process do the marines get called in? I’m sure it has to be somewhere in there.
Unless Walky has their number from a previous incident, I suppose that’s up to security.
not gonna lie, I’m going to be disappointed if they don’t have sex (and I don’t even know why!?)
Panel 2 rewrite: “What are you dense? Are you retarded or something? He’s the Goddamn teachin’ assistant.”
I really hope Sal actually gets in trouble for this.
She probably will. As seen in the Joyce-brings-Mike-along-to-punch-Joe-story, The Willis sometimes plays these things for laughs, but usually puts some sort of consequence at the end.
I’d agree except it doesn’t really look like he minds all that much.
There have been other cases when people have minded being victimized a LOT more, and nothing came of it. I’m starting to think that Willis hasn’t got around to drawing up a character model for the campus police yet.
So in panel 2 Sal is clearly grabbing Jason from the front.
then in panel 4 she’s practically grabbing his ass.
I would have thought that she switched in panel 3 to avoid making it look like she was kidnapping him, except that Jason seems to think it’s obvious that hes being kidnapped.
Are Sweater Vests cool now, too?
depends. where the myans a few days off and it’s raining fire and brimstone from the sky?
if so, then yes.
Is that how you say “HELP I’M BEING KIDNAPPED!” in British?
Holy crap, their math class is 6 hours a week??
Yeah, that’s pretty common for college classes.
Kernanator you ate my sandwich!
I would have killed to only have 6 hours of Maths a week in first year. But then, I’m doing a Physics degree.
It was delicious.
Jason’s expression in the first panel made me briefly mistake him for Mike.
I just realized that Sal’s pants, jacket, and riding gloves all match. She’s stylin’.
Yea! More Sal!
Technically you aren’t being transported unless she’s carrying you, Brit-boy.
Hello Jason. Welcome to The Madhouse.
Silly Jason, it doesn’t count as ‘transported against your will’ unless you let your legs go limp and make her drag you. Maybe cling to a desk or lamppost or something, yell for security/police…
Now, if she’d chosen a certain crushable /different/ part of you to grab onto and drag under threat of squeezing, you’d probably have no signficant choice. Then again, you wouldn’t be able to get past the first few syllables of saying that sentence out loud, either, reduced to just wailing mentally and making frantic eye-signals calling for help while her gaze was diverted.

Either way, realistically speaking it’s just his pride anyway requiring that he put on a show of unwillingness, while actually he’d readily carry her around on all fours like a horsey if she willed it…
I just really want Joyce to use the phrase “No-no carrot” instead of “penis”. Just once.
oh my god, sal and jason. i’d forgotten how much i ship it.
And with ” ‘ullo” I now hear his accent as Scouse. George Harrison, if you will.
Nope, no one. Carry on, Sal.
