Comics are currently drawn and uploaded through:
Hmmm… the MiB /would/ neuralize people after an incident like that. You got something for that Yoto? Joe having hot alien sex in the woods and Danny stumbles in with the MiB to save Joe, they touch the orb while the alien escapes and then they’re neuralized? Or have I gone and neuralized the creative process?
Sal was pretty upfront that she was looking for comfort and stability. Sexual frustrations might come into play but the last storyline and this one were largely focused on Sal finally cracking from the lack of emotional connections in her life.
I should be reacting to character development… but my brain is for some reason focused on the fact that we can now narrow down the game they’re playing to 3D World specifically.
Partially true in the same way that “Harvestmen are the most venomous spiders in the world” is true. They aren’t spiders and they aren’t venomous, but they are in the world.
The tattoo would be more impressive if it wasn’t such a bad one. Can’t decide if it reflects a bad choice or just adds to Sal’s awesome. Is it meant to be self-inflicted & amateurish or just simplified to suit the comic’s art style? We just have to believe it’s actually a really good tattoo, right?
It’s a sloppy drawing with ill-defined linework. It’s not very elaborate: essentially a blue smudge with eight lines sticking out of it. It’s uneven, asymmetrical.
If we are to take its representation in David’s art at face value, it’s clearly not done by a professional. It’s a prison-style tattoo. That could be true for Sal. Maybe a friend did it or she did it herself.
Or we should assume the simplification is due to the comic’s art style and that actually it’s a professional tattoo that would look a lot better in real life.
I’ll assume it’s a professional tattoo, then. However, the addition seems to suggest an attempt at partial cover-up. As if the spider image needed to be contained.
He just knows she’s hot and Walky’s sister. Like, that’s obviously a very shallow understanding, but plenty to be a bit envious of.
I also wonder if he’s noticing here that he’s content not angling for that, and given his past beliefs that people cannot change, having trouble reconciling that.
Based on the tilting, I’d say Mario Kart! Idk much about it on the switch (I’ve played it there once, but it’s been a while), but that’s my stance playing cause I’m used to playing on the Wii. I tried the WiiU version one time and struggled cause of the lack of motion sensors.
The tilting could be basically any game, really. People have been doing that with their controllers far longer than there has been any in-game effects for doing so.
I mean an orgy sounds like fun, but then it would be revealing Joe is okay with incest and I’m not sure he’s ready to really look himself in the mirror and ask that question.
Exactly. Sarah already used her baseball bat once to turn Roofie McRapeface into a ground-rule double, and I’m sure Joe realizes that she would have no qualms about hitting for the cycle if he even hinted at anything like a ménage à quatre.
I mean, it’s only incest if the sisters have sex with one another. Siblings can be involved in an orgy without participating with one another.
NOTE: Not saying it’s a good idea or anything, particularly given this group, just that incest isn’t required.
It’s more of a porn thought than a real thought, so the relatedness of the hypothetical participants doesn’t matter too much. If he were really considering it, yeah, it would probably make a difference
Well Joe two of them are related so that’s a no go, the third you have deeper feelings for so you should probably figure that out before trying to get her in bed
Also one of them would literally murder you if you said anything like that so there’s probably some self preservation going on too
I’m somewhat making an assumption about what your comment meant, here, so apologies if I’ve misinterpreted, however:
“Rail”, used in this context, does not necessarily mean penetrate, so Sal could still be said to rail Danny even if no toys are involved.
In the same way that Sal can be said to “have sex with” Danny, Sal can “rail” Danny. Both are correct.
I seem to recall he said there were 3 controllers. Since game consoles don’t come with a full set of four controllers, they might not have bought that many extras, for whatever reason.
By the look of things they’re using individual Joy Cons, unless whoever owns the console bought a single one instead of a pair there should be another one
Did he say he had only had three controllers at one point? The only thing I could find was him mentioning Mario can play 3 people, but I may have missed it
I misremembered the comment about ‘Mario can be three-player’ as ‘I have Mario and three controllers, go play’ (more or less). I suppose in my line of thinking, if there were four controllers, then there would be four people playing, as there are four people in the room.
Tch. Joe, that plot sounds silly and over the top. At that point, you might as well pretend you were abducted by space aliens and that god was a cheese robot.
This looks so peaceful and funny♡. Joe just can’t accept he has changed and is for the best♡♡. Can’t wait to see how Becky and Dorothy will destroy the harmony of this moment… Maybe Joe and Sarah will be both angry with them for that.
I hope Joe is about to make that incredible discovery that only certain males make: that just being (genuinely) nice to people and not actively driving every interaction toward sex is more likely to ensure consistent sex, albeit with only one person for awhile, no orgy.
Yeah but if he did that then he’d be interacting with a woman without the expectation of sex.
That thing Joe is not supposed to do because if he has a non-transactional interaction with a woman, that means he’ll inevitably betray her and ruin her trust in him.
I think Joe is just aromantic. Joyce is a platonic friend and the other two are connected to her. That means they’re all in his friend zone and he just enjoys spending time with them.
Dan is, in fact, “Making love”. That is spending time with someone in order to forge a romantic connection. That kind of thing can involve sex but it doesn’t have to.
Joe, don’t you know better than to rub strange balls
orbgy
As seen in the Woody Allen movie Sleeper.
You don’t rub strange balls without consent of the owner, but with it…
Look, universal protocol when encountering a strange object is to poke it, but you want to do it with gloves at least. Ideally a stick
Or a Shotgun, maybe.
Those orbs can be pretty tricky.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNSuYQ0mYUE
That’s the thing. You won’t remember touching the orb. It obviously erases your memory.
Hmmm… the MiB /would/ neuralize people after an incident like that. You got something for that Yoto? Joe having hot alien sex in the woods and Danny stumbles in with the MiB to save Joe, they touch the orb while the alien escapes and then they’re neuralized? Or have I gone and neuralized the creative process?
They’re probably cuddling and eating sandwiches, but he’ll still be having a good time nonetheless.
Cuddling in the snow is more fun than sex with multiple people at once is anyways
Can’t you do both at the same time? Bet you could even eat sandwiches during.
*Oglaf: Too busy*
My experience says otherwise, but ymmv.
The reason Sal is with Danny right now is because he’s not trying to get railed by her
Railing will probably happen eventually though.
After handholding, sharing words of encouragement, and long talks about feelings.
Danny’s going for the route that does all the lewdest stuff first.
I though the reason was Sal was trying to get railed.
Sal was pretty upfront that she was looking for comfort and stability. Sexual frustrations might come into play but the last storyline and this one were largely focused on Sal finally cracking from the lack of emotional connections in her life.
I should be reacting to character development… but my brain is for some reason focused on the fact that we can now narrow down the game they’re playing to 3D World specifically.
It may also be Smash.
I dunno, if it were Smash Joyce might be content enough with Daisy to be ok with someone else playing as Peach
I main Daisy. Fear my golf club.
HI. I’M. DAISY.
I’m Batman.
Hello batman, I’m nothing.
Oh, Bruce’s parents love for him just entered the chat.
Mm.
I was thinking Mario Kart.
Or Mario Party.
… because I have those.
My first thought was one of the New Super Mario Bros. games, which are where all my memories of being thrown into pits by *alleged* friends come from.
How much does Joe actually know about Sal. They haven’t exactly interacted much.
That she’s a smokin’ hot, tattooed motorcycle babe. What other information is relevant?
Not that relevant but he knows she struggled with math (thats why Danny was tutoring her)
Nah, to Joe, ‘tutoring’ is a paper-thin cover story for sexytimes.
Which, in Sal’s case, is partially true.
Partially true in the same way that “Harvestmen are the most venomous spiders in the world” is true. They aren’t spiders and they aren’t venomous, but they are in the world.
Also true for pretty much every manga/anime ever.
The tattoo would be more impressive if it wasn’t such a bad one. Can’t decide if it reflects a bad choice or just adds to Sal’s awesome. Is it meant to be self-inflicted & amateurish or just simplified to suit the comic’s art style? We just have to believe it’s actually a really good tattoo, right?
What exactly is bad about it?
It’s a sloppy drawing with ill-defined linework. It’s not very elaborate: essentially a blue smudge with eight lines sticking out of it. It’s uneven, asymmetrical.
If we are to take its representation in David’s art at face value, it’s clearly not done by a professional. It’s a prison-style tattoo. That could be true for Sal. Maybe a friend did it or she did it herself.
Or we should assume the simplification is due to the comic’s art style and that actually it’s a professional tattoo that would look a lot better in real life.
For reference: https://www.deviantart.com/itswalky/art/Sal-is-Dumbing-of-Age-s-perennial-hottest-lady-441153160
Here’s the best image I could find of the original design. Sal’s also gotten some additional tattoo work done recently
I’ll assume it’s a professional tattoo, then. However, the addition seems to suggest an attempt at partial cover-up. As if the spider image needed to be contained.
She discusses her thought process a little here.
He just knows she’s hot and Walky’s sister. Like, that’s obviously a very shallow understanding, but plenty to be a bit envious of.
I also wonder if he’s noticing here that he’s content not angling for that, and given his past beliefs that people cannot change, having trouble reconciling that.
He’s also shared enough words with Sal to know her *personality* is attractive too.
So you think they’re playing Mario Kart or Smash Bros?
Mario Wii U
Kart doesn’t let you throw people, so… not that.
Eh, someone already said 3D World and that’s probably it since the Wii U port of New Super Mario Bros Deluxe doesn’t let you play as Peach.
Kart let’s you push people, use a well placed shell, etc. I suspect it’s Mario Kart
Based on the tilting, I’d say Mario Kart! Idk much about it on the switch (I’ve played it there once, but it’s been a while), but that’s my stance playing cause I’m used to playing on the Wii. I tried the WiiU version one time and struggled cause of the lack of motion sensors.
The tilting could be basically any game, really. People have been doing that with their controllers far longer than there has been any in-game effects for doing so.
Dick move, orb.
On a serious note, it’s nice seeing Sarah having fun with her sisters. We’ve seen a lot of grumpy Sarah lately, so seeing her enjoy herself is good.
I mean an orgy sounds like fun, but then it would be revealing Joe is okay with incest and I’m not sure he’s ready to really look himself in the mirror and ask that question.
Also Joe (sometimes) has a self-preservation instinct, and if he angled for an orgy he would be murdered.
Exactly. Sarah already used her baseball bat once to turn Roofie McRapeface into a ground-rule double, and I’m sure Joe realizes that she would have no qualms about hitting for the cycle if he even hinted at anything like a ménage à quatre.
Also Joyce paid Mike to beat the shit out of Joe that one time
I mean, it’s only incest if the sisters have sex with one another. Siblings can be involved in an orgy without participating with one another.
NOTE: Not saying it’s a good idea or anything, particularly given this group, just that incest isn’t required.
Also, it doesn’t count as incest if they’re both girls. Pretty sure that’s a rule somewhere. ;D
It’s more of a porn thought than a real thought, so the relatedness of the hypothetical participants doesn’t matter too much. If he were really considering it, yeah, it would probably make a difference
Well Joe two of them are related so that’s a no go, the third you have deeper feelings for so you should probably figure that out before trying to get her in bed
Also one of them would literally murder you if you said anything like that so there’s probably some self preservation going on too
At least one of them would literally murder you
Dan should be railing Sal not the other way around. Unless Sal brought some toys. And Dan is into that.
Consider Dan, consider Sal; did you answer your own question?
I wouldn’t be surprised if Danny is into that.
I’m somewhat making an assumption about what your comment meant, here, so apologies if I’ve misinterpreted, however:
“Rail”, used in this context, does not necessarily mean penetrate, so Sal could still be said to rail Danny even if no toys are involved.
In the same way that Sal can be said to “have sex with” Danny, Sal can “rail” Danny. Both are correct.
It’s really cute seeing Sarah big sister it up.
Is this Orb the Good Bo-Dai from Solarbabies of the Evil Loc-Nar from Heavy metal?
Joe would rather go to the dimension you visit when you’re cheesing.
Are you asking Danny or Joe?
Joe, the universal scale tips toward balance because of your sacrifice.
Joe, quit angsting and wallflowering, and grab a controller and join in. “Not in an orgy” doesn’t mean “can’t have fun with video games”.
I seem to recall he said there were 3 controllers. Since game consoles don’t come with a full set of four controllers, they might not have bought that many extras, for whatever reason.
By the look of things they’re using individual Joy Cons, unless whoever owns the console bought a single one instead of a pair there should be another one
One might have broken or gotten lost.
ALso, they now sell single joycons. I know this because, for a while, we had only three.
Now we have four.
Did he say he had only had three controllers at one point? The only thing I could find was him mentioning Mario can play 3 people, but I may have missed it
He definitely just said “Mario can be three-player”. If one of their controllers is broken, it was mentioned even earlier.
https://www.dumbingofage.com/2021/comic/book-12/01-sister-christian/pleasingly-2/
Maybe it works, except the sticks annoyingly drift.
I misremembered the comment about ‘Mario can be three-player’ as ‘I have Mario and three controllers, go play’ (more or less). I suppose in my line of thinking, if there were four controllers, then there would be four people playing, as there are four people in the room.
Video game orgies are the BEST orgies.
Quick Joe check the mirror- do you still have 5oclock shadow??
Or check if anyone else has a goatee… It could be an alternate universe
Joe, what you and Danny touched wasn’t a mystical glowing orb deep in the woods that swapped your destinies.
It was your wieners.
Oh, wow, the hell ad is “working” even on Desktop mode.
Quiet, please, make it stop.
Joe as a comic character maybe you should learn that some things are better to remain in a thought bubble rather than spoken out loud.
Thought bubbles are extremely rare in DoA. I think there’s only, like, three in the entire run.
I guess the clue is in the title, why characters don’t use this useful and less risky method of expressing their feelings to the audience more often.
We have internal monologues though, Dina style.
Walking With Dina had more than three, but it’s also a bit of a departure from the usual style.
I do believe Willis himself referred to this as “breaking his comic code of conduct”.
Thank you! I forgot that wonderful moment between Sarah and Dina
I thought the wispy speech bubble tails were intended to indicate that he’s at least subvocalising.
(I was also thinking that his mouth remains closed, but so does everyone else’s, so I dunno.)
Yeah, I definitely take this as very quietly muttering to himself where nobody’s likely to hear it.
Tch. Joe, that plot sounds silly and over the top. At that point, you might as well pretend you were abducted by space aliens and that god was a cheese robot.
I see what you did there.
That’s the sort of ludicrous thing that would only show up in one of Joyce’s comics.
**said in a thick and comedic Scottish accent**
“If you could change your fet, wouldya?”

Did it work Mary?
TELL THEM MARY!
Tell them why your silly little ritual didn’t work!
Thank you! I remembered that but couldn’t find it.
It’s called ‘growing up’, Joe. It happens to all of us!
Hes obviously been talking to Jennifer:
https://www.dumbingofage.com/2021/comic/book-11/05-as-long-as-its-free/knockoff/
Hard cut to Sal and Danny enjoying sandwiches by the river.
Orbs do be like that.
This looks so peaceful and funny♡. Joe just can’t accept he has changed and is for the best♡♡. Can’t wait to see how Becky and Dorothy will destroy the harmony of this moment… Maybe Joe and Sarah will be both angry with them for that.
Eh, there’s multiple potential points of failure here
Are they using individual joycons without grips?! OH GOD THEIR POOR HANDS
Right? It’s like trying to play games on a Tic-Tacs box.
Inching closer to the future where Danny engages in ethical polyamory while Joe becomes a wife guy. Thanks, mystical orb!
Trump touching the orb:
https://www.nebeep.com/content/uploads/2017/05/v0.jpg
If I was in the room, I’d be sitting next to them and going “Remember, I get a turn next!” ;P
If he’s got 3 controllers, I imagine he has 4. They come in pairs, after all.
Except when they don’t.
Is he referencing something specific, like an orb in a cult movie?
Obviously what Joe should do is join them in playing this video game, assuming there’s a fourth controller.
If Joe doesn’t try to angle this towards an orgy, will the arrow on his Nice Guy shirt just disappear from existence, BTTF-like?
Nice
I hope Joe is about to make that incredible discovery that only certain males make: that just being (genuinely) nice to people and not actively driving every interaction toward sex is more likely to ensure consistent sex, albeit with only one person for awhile, no orgy.
Joe hasn’t really had a problem with having sex before his character development.
I mean, poly people exist.
Those damn destiny swapping orbs!
just play WITH them, dumbass, i know joy-cons come in packs of 2
Yeah but if he did that then he’d be interacting with a woman without the expectation of sex.
That thing Joe is not supposed to do because if he has a non-transactional interaction with a woman, that means he’ll inevitably betray her and ruin her trust in him.
Spencer gets Joe.
Well, sometimes they do. Except when they don’t.
It was the Shame Orb!
See Joe, this is what you get for appearing in a canon strip instead of a Slipshine.
I think Joe is just aromantic. Joyce is a platonic friend and the other two are connected to her. That means they’re all in his friend zone and he just enjoys spending time with them.
Dan is, in fact, “Making love”. That is spending time with someone in order to forge a romantic connection. That kind of thing can involve sex but it doesn’t have to.
