No, it only looks like a Commander’s bars because you’re going by American rank insignia conventions instead of Crunch Islandic rank insignia conventions. I mean, that’s pretty clearly not an American naval officer’s uniform, Captain or otherwise.
Besides, I’m pretty sure he’s a Commodore or something by now.
That’s what we do +1s for, right? May as well jump on that wagon now that I’m showing up frequently.
(Darn, another avatar I don’t recognize. Got spoiled with all those EGS crops.)
A surprisingly good show, despite its silly name. It never quite lived up to how excellent the first arc was, with the whole Yacht Club alone in space, but damn was that first arc fine. Not having the whole series live up to it is no sin.
The difference between US stocks and Oz stocks must be vast, considering the big difference between US stocks and Canadian stocks and we share a border and (mostly) an economy.
For instance, I would be surprised if they sell the Arnott’s biscuits range over there such as Tim-Tams, Iced VoVos, Mint Slices, Monte Carlo, Milk Arrowroot, Ginger Nut and so on.
I’ve never noticed any of those, but there is a possibility that I tend to be too busy looking for European cookies (which do tend to be easy to find, at least here in Central NJ).
They sold Tim Tams here under the Pepperidge Farm brand for a while (complete with the tagline “Australia’s favorite [i]cookie[/i] [sic]”). I liked them, but they seem to have been withdrawn.
I’d love it if fastfood franchises would proudly advertise their foods as causing existential ennui. If only to see how many people would wonder what it means.
I’m definitely torn between wanting more Ruth or Ruth/Billie strips, and also wanting more Becky goodness! Ah, well, I guess a one-strip Ruth interlude was all that storyline could sustain for the moment, at least until Ruth is done with class. So in the meantime, I guess some more Becky is definitely a good thing to hold one over!
(Still waiting for the proverbial other shoe to drop regarding Becky… Unless the twist is… that there is no twist, she just came for a nice visit, and when she’s done, she just goes home! But nah… Willis must have something up his sleeve…)
Ooh… Given that (if memory serves) Willis has expressed in the past that, in their current state, a Slipshine of the two of them would not be sexy (and, even as a huge shipper of those two, I’d agree) this quite gives me hope that the two of them are on a positive road.
Or else, why would Willis do this?
… … …
…Unless, of course, he’s short on cash and just needs a huge infusion of Internet Porn Lord Monies! (But I’d prefer to think he hasn’t sold out quite yet…)
Both Walky and Joyce have watched too many cliche works of fiction with this and both taken away the wrong message: The offense isn’t not saying it, it’s not loving her back. And that’s not something he can control.
She can’t control whether she falls in love, either… this is just a tragic relationship that is nobody’s fault.
Given how smitten Walky was with Dorothy right from the start, I don’t think this ship has hit the cliffs yet. Dorothy set the terms, for the relationship to be Till Yale Do Them Part, and Walky accepted that. Now Dorothy suddenly reveals a change of heart, and it has caught Walky off-balance. But they’re both smart people; they’ll figure it out.
Are we sure it’s not Walky who chose to sit next to Becky and not the other way around? That looks like a corner behind Becky, so if they’re in a booth, she would have gone in first, and Walky would have chosen to sit next to her rather than Joyce.
OK here’s the thing Walky obviously loves her too but he knows Dorothy is going to realize sooner down the line that things are getting too serious and will think “shit I got to brake this off now ” and then will dump him and break his heart. He knows its going to happen sooner or later and let’s face it sooner or later it will happen.
Dorothy’s the one upping the emotional investment. Dorothy isn’t afraid of serious emotional investment and even if she transfers schools they could continue the relationship. It’s all about whether the person and relationship is worth the extra effort.
That sort of happened to me and ice cream. I always eat ice cream when I’m sad so now when I eat it my brain is like “wait, what are we sad about that we’re eating ice cream” and then I find an excuse to be sad and it all ends up with me watching some romantic comedy and crying and my roomies wondering why I’m acting like I broke up with someone when I’ve been single for a while.
Especially a little over a month into your first semester. Good times. No possible way the next 3.9 years of your life won’t change the outcome you establish now.
walky only whats what he was promised he doesnt want to frig things up yet but dorothy is going back on her word and trying to push the relationship forward and walky just doesnt know what he should do not to frig up the realtionship

Why you ask walky? Because most of the main characters are female(ya I said it, come at me if you don’t like it not like I’m coming back to read this comment)
I just take that as she wants to talk with/focus on Joyce. I tend to prefer to sit across from the person who I want to sit with, in a booth, anyway (They appear to be sitting in a half booth? Maybe?)
Yeah, I get what you’re saying. I suppose I’m used to couples sitting together, so if I liked someone I definately would try and sit next to them instead of opposite, but I get why you would do it the other way ’round.
Becky seems a little Mary Sue-ish. If my past experiences with the Walkyverse proves true with the Dumbingverse, this’ll mean she’s gonna be a jerk some point in the future.
Dude, walky, if it’s just “for-fun” and she’s making it not-fun just let it go. Walk away. Get some mcnuggets. However, it does seem like you’ve got the “protest too much” thing going on.
Cheat on Dorothy with the redhead. She seems into you.
It’s supposed to be “for fun”, so Dorothy shouldn’t care, right? If you do it, then she’ll see how much she doesn’t care.
… what? Oh, don’t look at me like that! Like you never wanted to purposefully orchestrate a social disaster for shits and giggles before! Come on! I’m not doing anything wrong. I’m just… trying to make OTHER people do wrong things!
This Dorothy Chick also known as Walky’s girlfriend??? Becky let him talk about her jfc. Becky doesn’t seem the type to steal Walky away. But you never know…

(also this is totally why he’s called Captain Crunch, even though his portrait clearly shows his rank to be commander – was a post-humerus promotion)
Surely you mean Commander Crisp?

No, it only looks like a Commander’s bars because you’re going by American rank insignia conventions instead of Crunch Islandic rank insignia conventions. I mean, that’s pretty clearly not an American naval officer’s uniform, Captain or otherwise.

Ahn-weee!
He’s funny.
He’s pissed.
He’s also specifically sitting next to Becky, I notice…
Careful, Walky. Travel too far down the road to meta-consciousness, and eventually you start seeing little yellow boxes everywhere.
Aww, but the boxes are nice! we have such fun together, the boxes and I!
Wait… what is that referencing?
Deadpool I believe.
indeed
http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20081210230131/uncyclopedia/images/5/59/Deadpool_and_his_Little_Yellow_Boxes.jpg
Sounds about right.
You wouldn’t know anything about *that* though
I love you.
Dibs.
SO much truth in this strip! I feel simultaneously bad for both Walky AND Dorothy!
As Teal’c would say, “Indeed.”
No, no, no! It’s *raises eyebrow* “Indeed.”
*raises eyebrow* is an essential punctuation mark if you want to speak fluent Teal’c.
You also need to master the stares of disappointment. He had a lot of those.
For reals though, Dorothy was the one who said that Walky was basically a cheap college thill while she trains for her presidency.
“The burgers has less ennui at Hungry Jacks!”
That’s the Australian Burger King, isn’t it?
Over here in the States Hungry Jack is a brand of pancake mix.
I did not know that. I heard that Burger King had to change it’s name due to their already being a Burger King restaurant in Oz.
The “I did not know that” was referring to the pancake mix bit not the burger bit.
Never even heard of “Hungry Jack’s” pancakes. Are they only in one region, or something?
Who knows, chances are your supermarkets will stock many items we don’t have over here and vice versa.
The difference between US stocks and Oz stocks must be vast, considering the big difference between US stocks and Canadian stocks and we share a border and (mostly) an economy.

I’ve never noticed any of those, but there is a possibility that I tend to be too busy looking for European cookies (which do tend to be easy to find, at least here in Central NJ).
That further adds to Chris’ point – hell, up here in Canada we don’t stock any of the Hostess line. No twinkies, no ding dongs, and no snowballs.
Such is how the cookie crumbles.
I’ve found Twinkies in Canada. Haven’t bought any though.
They sold Tim Tams here under the Pepperidge Farm brand for a while (complete with the tagline “Australia’s favorite [i]cookie[/i] [sic]”). I liked them, but they seem to have been withdrawn.
I am guessing they are more back east. Never heard of them in OR, WA and MT.
They exist in Georgia, though it is Hungry Jack, Not Jack’s.
I think you have to start with a simple and work your way up, Walky.
Is it not normal to get that at McDonald’s
Just get the salad then Walky.
Who should get salad, then Walky?
Becky you sly dog you…
“Okay, how about pizza?”
“Pizza makes me long for the carefree days of my childhood.”
KFC makes me long for the days when you can buy the large tubs of potato and gravy.
McNuggets make him long for the simple days of being a bachelor who cares not for icky girls.
“Yours is indeed a tormented existence. Filled with torment. And girls. Girls with their breasts. They torment you so.”
“So you should torment them and their breasts in turn.”
You can if you want, assuming you don’t mind dealing with sexual assault charges that is.
Unless you’re married to them, and they like it, in which case, torment away.
We used to joke that you could use KFC gravy for pothole repairs.
“How about some Ice cream ? ”
“No not that it reminds me of my departed sister.”
“What?! Sal died!?” “What? No. She just, like, departed and said she was going on vacation, a week ago, or something.”
Welp, I came in too late…
I’d love it if fastfood franchises would proudly advertise their foods as causing existential ennui. If only to see how many people would wonder what it means.
Nietzsche nachos!
“Um, isn’t there supposed to be cheese with these nachos.”
“Cheese too decomposes. Cheese is dead. Cheese remains dead. And we have killed it. Try the salsa instead!”

Judging from the revelation on Tumblr/the Comfycon Slipshine panel, I imagine we’re probably getting more Ruth and Billie soon.
Oh…? Would you, good person, by chance have a link to this revelation?
http://itswalky.tumblr.com/post/103334543867/finally
Ooh… Given that (if memory serves) Willis has expressed in the past that, in their current state, a Slipshine of the two of them would not be sexy (and, even as a huge shipper of those two, I’d agree) this quite gives me hope that the two of them are on a positive road.

A lot of people seem to think he already has because Money is the root of all evil and all that garbage.
I don’t think he would post it if he didn’t think the story was there for it.
He said “Right now”. Because they were drunk. Its probably not selling out and I will absolutely pay money for it.
Both Walky and Joyce have watched too many cliche works of fiction with this and both taken away the wrong message: The offense isn’t not saying it, it’s not loving her back. And that’s not something he can control.
She can’t control whether she falls in love, either… this is just a tragic relationship that is nobody’s fault.

But they’re both smart people; they’ll figure it out.
Wow, Walky and Sarah should form a club.
I’ve got this twenty-foot intermodal just standing around…
I will now proceed to read far too much into Becky sitting next to Walky rather than Joyce.
Yes. Good.
I assumed Becky was sitting between them, which is also just fine. She can be the meat.
I’m pretty sure that’s Joyce’s shoulder we see in the lower left of the two-shots.
When reading that, I assumed you steepled your fingers and nodded thoughtfully for the last part.
Excellent.
Are we sure it’s not Walky who chose to sit next to Becky and not the other way around? That looks like a corner behind Becky, so if they’re in a booth, she would have gone in first, and Walky would have chosen to sit next to her rather than Joyce.
Walky can sure use a break from the dramas. Hmm, wonder what Mike’s up to?
Mike’ll give you a break all right… A break in your arm!
He’ll give your mom a break. From not being boned. For a nickel.
Sign me up for a cruise aboard the ship SS Wacky
And Walky will graduate and become the host of the PBS Create show The Psyche One Plate At A Time!
“Ok fine, how about pizza?”
“GOD NOW I HAVE TO GO HIT SOMETHING, DAMMIT!”
*clenches fists, squints towards heaven*
“You’re TEARING ME APART, PIZZA!”
I thought it was “You’re tearing me apart, fun-fruit trees”
I want to give you all the internets for that.
“Oh hi Crazy Bread.”
OK here’s the thing Walky obviously loves her too but he knows Dorothy is going to realize sooner down the line that things are getting too serious and will think “shit I got to brake this off now ” and then will dump him and break his heart. He knows its going to happen sooner or later and let’s face it sooner or later it will happen.

Either Danny wasn’t worth much to her or she didn’t think that 4 weeks ago.
He wasn’t, he clung, told her her dreams were silly, and made it allllll about her and she hated it.

Hey everybody, can we speculate on the foreshadowed meaning of Becky’s wistful stare in panel 5? I think that should be a thing.
you must have a great mind cause you think like me
I interpret it as saying “Joyce, how can you not find this thing totally adorable?”
I like that interpretation.
GAZING DEEP INTO JOYCE’S MAGNIFICENT VISAGE
I know this is quite outdated, but you really need to make a Dina poster/t-shirt that revolves around the theme “She thinks the universe is billions of years old” That line was priceless.
Well I for one think Becky should be voiced by Linda Cardellini.
I want one of those ‘How Are You Feeling Today?’ posters with all of Joyce’s crazy faces
Like today’s panel 1
yes
Bullshit Walky,
I can think of one-time you were promised “dinner plans”
and You were ALL-ABOUT the feelings fest that followed
As much as I’m liking all this Wacky time, I’ve got to say– Becky’s lips weird me out a little.
If DoA were a musical, it would be the silliest thing ever. With nonsensical, weird, and original songs galore.
I would so watch DoA if it were a musical… It would probably be either really funny or nonsensical. Who am I kidding? It would be both.
Songs about butt tacos, pajama jeans, and a chorus made up of just the word “FAAAACE”.

WALKY IS QUITE MAJESTIC, BUT A FOOL!
(Sung to the tune of Mulan’s Be A Man chorus)
Meanwhile I can’t help but be reminded of the Bill Plympton short “Your Face”.
I’m guessing it would be something like Dr. Horrible.
Heck yeah, you’re on my wavelength!
Try Gilbert and Sullivan. “[Full] of words and music, and signifying nothing.” – Tom Lehrer.
Why you ask walky? Because most of the main characters are female(ya I said it, come at me if you don’t like it not like I’m coming back to read this comment)
Walky should really get on board with Soylent: three times the farts, zero social mealtimes.
Hmmmm Becky sitting next to Walky instead of Joyce? Hmmmmm
I just take that as she wants to talk with/focus on Joyce. I tend to prefer to sit across from the person who I want to sit with, in a booth, anyway (They appear to be sitting in a half booth? Maybe?)
But that’s just me.
Yeah, I get what you’re saying. I suppose I’m used to couples sitting together, so if I liked someone I definately would try and sit next to them instead of opposite, but I get why you would do it the other way ’round.
Judging by the look on Becky’s face, you’re doing it AGAIN, Walky.
But that may be for the best. I think she’s a far better fit for you than Dorothy is.
…You know she’s looking at JOYCE in that last panel, right?
And the difference in what he’d say would be…?
Why don’t we all compromise? Becky wants BOTH Joyce and Walky.
Becky seems a little Mary Sue-ish. If my past experiences with the Walkyverse proves true with the Dumbingverse, this’ll mean she’s gonna be a jerk some point in the future.
I can’t think of anyone with a decent amount of screen time who hasn’t been.
I love how Mary Sue can mean anything from “Authors masturbatory self-insert” to “Haven’t been shown as a monster in the last 5 minutes”.
I wonder how long before the new.edition of any dictiona consists of the covers, a title page and one page with the words, “Ah, fuck it.”
*dictionary
“That’s such a Strawman! It’s the Strawmannest Strawman that ever Strawmanned!”
Actually, it’s ethics in strawman Mary Sues.
Considering that Joyce is the author’s self insert…
I don’t think she will, at least not intentionally. If Becky is feeling attracted to Walky, I think the extent to what she does would be flirting.
Dude, walky, if it’s just “for-fun” and she’s making it not-fun just let it go. Walk away. Get some mcnuggets. However, it does seem like you’ve got the “protest too much” thing going on.
Walky.
Cheat on Dorothy with the redhead. She seems into you.
It’s supposed to be “for fun”, so Dorothy shouldn’t care, right? If you do it, then she’ll see how much she doesn’t care.
… what? Oh, don’t look at me like that! Like you never wanted to purposefully orchestrate a social disaster for shits and giggles before! Come on! I’m not doing anything wrong. I’m just… trying to make OTHER people do wrong things!
…how the heck did Becky become my favorite character, all the sudden?
Because red heads are naturally hot (well the girls are anyway) and she finds farts funny
Walky and Sarah new OTP, the Dramaless Saracky.
This Dorothy Chick also known as Walky’s girlfriend??? Becky let him talk about her jfc. Becky doesn’t seem the type to steal Walky away. But you never know…
