Turn them into admission forms, for better administration.
Turn them into condoms, for better ejaculation.
Turn them into high school grades, for required participation.
Turn them into plane tickets, so I can take a vacation.
I LIKE RHYMING.
DON’T JUDGE ME.
Let it go, let it go!
Can’t hold it back any more.
Let it go, let it go!
Turn away and slam the door.
I don’t care what they’re going to say.
Let the news rage on.
The press never bothered me anyway.
Now they have those voices in my head and will forever. Years from now, when they make their next appearance, I’ll hear Meryl and Milly and wonder where the hell that came from.
I dont know what’s funnier, the fact that Danny now knows how obvious this is or that two random ass side-characters a figuring all this shit out and more faster than he is.
Or anyone that isn’t Roz DeSanto, and for her purposes it didn’t matter who it was. In this universe, Joe will never be his father.
For every prediction regarding women Joe has made in this comic, Joe has been proven wrong by Danny, except the one about Dorothy, and about Joyce, where he proved himself wrong.
Joe is about as much a womanizer in this world as Faz.
I’m guessing you are talking about the Car that is Ultra? Willis got tired of people making the “Amazigirl is totally ” joke awhile back and censored it with some kind of coding wizardry that is beyond my ken (pretty much like ALL forms of programming voodoo).
It’s not terribly complicated, it just checks for the phrase and replaces it… And it was because new readers were apparently put off by all the in-jokes and references to other universes.
Man, this could be bad if Danny ends up revealing Amazigirl’s secret identity. Thank god for that impenetrable poker face he’s got going there. No one will ever suspect a thing.
You’re right. She’s not as pale, and the hair color is different of course, but otherwise she does look remarkably like Willis’s illustrated version of himself.
They can’t be a Greek chorus: they are not saying anything appropriately classical like “Woe, woe unto the House of Atreides” or “Call no man happy until he is dead.”
That’s better, although I think the second quote runs, “Call no Amber happy until Blaine is dead.” (Based on Amber’s reaction at Blaine’s funeral in the SP! universe.)
As for long-running family curses, Amber could become a child abuser just like her father. Unfortunately, the cycle of abuse tends to perpetuate in families from generation to generation.
I have the feeling that Danny will soon start dannying … I mean do things that will cause a lot of trouble. For Amber of course. – ironic mode activated –
He is clearly a master of keeping secrets. Or staying quiet. Or just doing not retarded things in general.
Now you only need to explain why the campus has such a high crime rate and how she learns about these in advance so that she can be there to prevent them, and this story will be perfectly realistic! (well, more or less)
Where ever you get a large amount of people that are a fair cross section of society, and cram them together in small places, crime will happen for a number of reasons, people get stupid, people get desperate, or some people are just douches.
I’m certain it has been established that Amber’s room has a great vantage point over campus, and I know it has definitely been mentioned that she likes to patrol.
Personally I like the idea that whilst she does patrol, despite being a shut in, Amber wistfully gazes out over her campus wishing she was brave/strong enough to be a part of that world, inside feeling that only Amazi girl could ever be… Her recent crisis of identity bringing this issue to the fore and requiring resolution when the pacing is right…
Come on Danny, scream HER ASS ISN’T THAT WIDE right now and hope they don’t hear you. Then stick out your tongue and drool while moaning “Mmmmmmmmm, dat assssssss.” Do it for the kids!
A long time ago, in a scifi novel (I think by Andre Norton, whom I adored), the derogatory term for aliens was, being based on the acronym from 50’s genre movies for Bug-Eyed Monsters, “bemmies”.
So now I have to ask if your username is taken from that, and regardless of that, thank you for a moment of nostalgia for one of my favourite books which I had completely forgotten.
How many short girls with short hair and glasses are going to be in this comic, anyway? We have at least four by my count. Amber, Dorothy, Mandy, (or is it Grace), and the other Rachel character mentioned on Willis’ tumblr the other day.

Burn the newspapers Danny.
Turn them into mulch. Better for the environment.
Turn them into paper airplanes. Better for the entertainment.
Turn them into fake documents. Better for the embezzlement.
Turn them into skin better for insides yes.
The escalation of this conversation happened frighteningly quickly
Turn them into ladders for better escalation
Turn them into paper-mache, for the art students.
Turn them into admission forms, for better administration.
Turn them into condoms, for better ejaculation.
Turn them into high school grades, for required participation.

Pesticides for fumigation, high-performance lubrication

You know how much I hate that song for being nearly impossible to sing? Very very much.
Someone write this down and turn this into a song in a disney movie.
Or a rock song, either way.
what about paper-mache for the art appreciation
Let it go, let it go!
Can’t hold it back any more.

Careful — if you sing that song enough, DoA cast members will start turning into lesbians.
And then Danny became the Pyro!

This is the first time someone has a good shot of her in the daytime, right?
Indeed. Amazi-Girl might need a better disguise, methinks.
Ah yeah. Right
“Have you ever noticed you never see Superman and Clark Kent in the same room?”
“DUH! Why would Superman hang out with a loser like Clark Kent?”
I dunno, Bruce Wayne seems to think he’s all right.
That brain dead billionaire playboy? Who cares what he thinks! He’s just an flighty idiot with no real judge of character.
Well dang… took too long.
I’m sure Wally West couldn’t possibly help you with that problem.
I have no idea who that is
Bruce Wayne’s just a playboy. He’s a terrible judge of character and probably just an idiot.
That’d be like Billionaire Bruce Wayne hanging out with that Philistine, Batman.
whoah. that’s TOO crazy, and we’d all know about it.
every one knows bruce wayne can’t keep a secret!
I like them. I want more of them.
Also it’s my birthday yaaaayyyyyyyyyy
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday!
FUCK YOU.
Also, happy birthday.
You guys are the bestest. Even you I don’t know what to put here.
Which is which, again? Been a few years since my last Old Walkyverse binge.
Grace is the redhead with the hoodie and the glasses; Mandy is the blonde.
Oops! Got that backwards.
Mandy is the redhead (or is that auburn?); Grace is the blonde.
No, it’s the other way around.
Correct, if you totally reverse it.
Proof that Mandy is the redhead.
Proof that Grace is the blonde. Also, the only strip where Grace appears without Mandy. (This being the only strip where Mandy appears without Grace.)
Yes. If either of those two things were really happening, we’d have to be in a fictional world writen by a transformers geek or somethin’!
And it would be getting closer to spring break and The new Smash Bros would STILL NOT BE OUT!
just like ethan! *rimshot*
nice. *claps*
Statler and Waldorf for the Millennial Generation.

I like that line:”…as likely as Billie and Ruthless having a thing.”
We know that ship has sunk, you would need a shipload of pingpong balls to raise that one up again.
Pft, they’ve come back from far worse than that. All we know is they’re having a tiff, atm.
Plasma Mongoose, if you have any love for your femurs you’ll bite your tongue and never speak this damn dirty lie ever again!!!
(By which I mean to say that I respectfully disagree with your analysis)
And by “thing”, they mean lesbian babies.
And by lesbian babies, they mean my penis.
In all fairness, somebody has to have picked up on all the time Billie is suddenly spending in Ruth’s room.
Twoferone speculatin’
Damnable fine work Mr Willis.
JACK SAID A SWEAR!
Don’t tell my sister.
I thought Greek choruses were s’posed to sing and talk in rhyme.
So Grace and Mandy are meant to be like A-ko and B-ko the shadow girls from Utena?
as long as they aren’t Tate Otoko and Yoko Otoko
Not familiar with those two characters.
the last one in the article: http://flyingfullforceblog.wordpress.com/2013/05/09/the-bishoujo-confusion/
All I could find was a cast list for an anime called “Comic Party” with the character descriptions of “slim guy” and “fat guy” respectively.
DO YOU KNOW DO YOU KNOW HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEWS?
Wonder I wonder, do you know what I wonder?
I was gonna go with Crystal, Chiffon, and Ronette, but the Shadow Girls work just as well.
(OMG, swap those out! Little Shop of Horrors becomes creepier, and Utena becomes Brill-Building-licious!)
Just be glad Mandy and Grace weren’t listening to you naming Amber out loud just a second ago, Danny!
NOONE LISTENS TO DANNY.
Danny’s a great confidante, because even when he spills the beans, no one listens.
He should go around loudly announcing that Amaz-Girl is Amber. Then no one will ever believe it.
Are you suggesting that Danny is the moden day Cassandra?
More like Laokoon and the charger cable.
TIMES OF DAY CAN’T LISTEN TO HIM.
Danny have very sad life.
Probably have very sad death.
At least there is symmetry.
The threat of exposure has been reduced from Amber Alert to Green Alert.
I’m like 99% sure that you are always on Green Alert.
I’m more of a Minty Meadow Alert.
Is it ok to ask what inspired demon eyed Joyce?
Joyce has so many reaction faces that I just chose to modify one of them.
Huh, to me it looks more like Joyce is suffering from lack of sleep. I recognize that look, having seen it on my own face quite often.
Yeah, that was my impression too.
I recently watched Revolutionary Girl Utena, so I keep expecting Mandy and Grace to say “Do you know? Do you know?”
OMG, Thank you for this!!!!
Look up. You are not alone.
Grace even SOUNDS like my real-life California friend in my head. It’s like Willis is spying on her or something.
Mandy and Grace are reminding me of Meryl and Milly from Trigun.
Now they have those voices in my head and will forever. Years from now, when they make their next appearance, I’ll hear Meryl and Milly and wonder where the hell that came from.
“AMBER? PRAY TELL WHAT BRINGS HER TO MIND.”
Well, at the moment, Billie and Ruth having a thing is about as likely as Dexter and Monkey Master being real, so Amber should be perfectly safe.
So Amber’s identity is contingent on Billie and Ruth staying split up?
At least until Mandy and Grace come up with another comparison. Hey, how about Roz’s sister and the gender studies professor?
what? no, you’d have to be in an alternate dimension for something like THAT to happen.
If that’s the case, I am totally okay with Amber’s identity being exposed.
No…you wouldn’t!
This is strip is perfect.
Your is grammar is not.
Why is you is mad is for is nothing?
That depends on what the definition of is is.
What it is.
Computer, define is, Johnny Freakingouter.
amber being amazi girl??? that’s more unlikely then joyce and walky getting married.
I’d sooner say amazi-girl is a CAR.
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
If they’re the GREEK chorus, why aren’t they living in a sorority house?
Be… cause Rush usually happens later in the year?
Aww, don’t be so mean. I mean, Amber’s always ni- Well, she um…
She never causes any trouble because she’s a shut-in?
I dont know what’s funnier, the fact that Danny now knows how obvious this is or that two random ass side-characters a figuring all this shit out and more faster than he is.
+100
AND THAT’S THE GOSPEL TRUTH!
Is it bad that I think Grace bears a familiarity to a character in another universe whose name starts with an ‘A’ and ends with an ‘ar’?
She doesn’t *look* like a bald kid with an arrow on his head…
Admiral Ackbar?
Nah, she isn’t tall enough, or blue.
“It’s about as likely as Joe getting together with that supermarket checkout girl.”
Or anyone that isn’t Roz DeSanto, and for her purposes it didn’t matter who it was. In this universe, Joe will never be his father.
For every prediction regarding women Joe has made in this comic, Joe has been proven wrong by Danny, except the one about Dorothy, and about Joyce, where he proved himself wrong.
Joe is about as much a womanizer in this world as Faz.
Faz gets laid constantly?
Ugh, the Superman-itis strikes again.
read what mandy (i think) is saying and heard this part at about 1:30 on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMIDpJ8H7H0
Who do these mere /normal/ people think they are having this much knowledge about the storyline? Only the readers may know of such details!
Of course fuckin’ now everyone’s spidey senses are tingling
I smell a wacky misunderstanding!
I can’t help but think that these two are gonna Harvey and Bernstein this thing WIDE OPEN
Noone else has a rump as luscious and round as that Geek girl’s though! IT MUST BE HERS.
What’s really funny though is that can actually be their main lead.
Amber regrets her perfectly toned roundish rump.
Better hope they don’t start tailing her
Oh my god. That girl is totally Ultra Car!
Why is that blanked out? Well, let’s just say she shares similar features to a character also featured in today’s Shortpacked comic
I’m guessing you are talking about the Car that is Ultra? Willis got tired of people making the “Amazigirl is totally ” joke awhile back and censored it with some kind of coding wizardry that is beyond my ken (pretty much like ALL forms of programming voodoo).
She actually looks more like if that character and Leslie reproduced…
It’s not terribly complicated, it just checks for the phrase and replaces it… And it was because new readers were apparently put off by all the in-jokes and references to other universes.
There’s even a thing about it on the FAQ.
Man, this could be bad if Danny ends up revealing Amazigirl’s secret identity. Thank god for that impenetrable poker face he’s got going there. No one will ever suspect a thing.
THE PERFECT CRIME.
See, when I read this my first thought was, wait a sec, that Red-haired girl is Willis. I mean with a dye job on the hair.
Well, now I can’t unsee it!
You’re right. She’s not as pale, and the hair color is different of course, but otherwise she does look remarkably like Willis’s illustrated version of himself.
They can’t be a Greek chorus: they are not saying anything appropriately classical like “Woe, woe unto the House of Atreides” or “Call no man happy until he is dead.”
so like “woe, woe unto the house of o’malley” or “call no man happy unless blaine is dead” then?
That’s better, although I think the second quote runs, “Call no Amber happy until Blaine is dead.” (Based on Amber’s reaction at Blaine’s funeral in the SP! universe.)
As for long-running family curses, Amber could become a child abuser just like her father. Unfortunately, the cycle of abuse tends to perpetuate in families from generation to generation.
You see, Danny? Other people can totally make that same mistake. You figured it out first. THAT MAKES YOU THE SMARTEST!
… of course, in a place called the Dumbingverse, that might be a low bar.
He didn’t figure anything out, her mask came off in front of him.
That’s a great strip for the usual Superman/Clark thing, and its nice to see those 2 girls having dialogue (and differences at the same time). Cool!
I have the feeling that Danny will soon start dannying … I mean do things that will cause a lot of trouble. For Amber of course.
– ironic mode activated –
He is clearly a master of keeping secrets. Or staying quiet. Or just doing not retarded things in general.
Now you only need to explain why the campus has such a high crime rate and how she learns about these in advance so that she can be there to prevent them, and this story will be perfectly realistic! (well, more or less)
Because the God of their universe, David Willis, has decreed that it shall be so.
And no, that isn’t the first time in the last fifteen years or so that the thought of David Willis as a deity has just scared the crap right outta me.
Where ever you get a large amount of people that are a fair cross section of society, and cram them together in small places, crime will happen for a number of reasons, people get stupid, people get desperate, or some people are just douches.
I’m certain it has been established that Amber’s room has a great vantage point over campus, and I know it has definitely been mentioned that she likes to patrol.

But that’s just me…

Danny is number 5! Yay!
…I mean, Danny is self-aware! Yay!
Come on Danny, scream HER ASS ISN’T THAT WIDE right now and hope they don’t hear you. Then stick out your tongue and drool while moaning “Mmmmmmmmm, dat assssssss.” Do it for the kids!
Danny, way to keep up with the fashion of the day. Really, sometimes he is just so clueless.
Wait a minute, my real-life roommate is a short, wide-butted (mmm), shut-in geek girl with short brown hair. SHE’S AMAZI-GIRL!
Now if you could only get her into the Amazi Girl outfit before she wakes up…
…or is that a little too creepy, I always have a hard time telling?

Yay, Mandy and Grace! 😀 There should always be more Mandy and Grace.
That’s it. I’m having these girls select my stock portfolio.
Is Danny getting red when he hears about “Billie and Ruthless”?
Why does hen-clucking make such good exposition?
This is officially my favorite DoA strip ever.
Holy shit, just realized Mandy is Willis in a dress. With dyed hair.
How did I not notice that before??
