For Me, it’s usually books that I wind up memorizing, not movies. for instance, I have recited the entire first chapter of “So you Want to be a Wizard” from memory. I think I could go farther, but I never got the chance.
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy over here. I used to be able to do the whole thing, but now I’m down to pretty much the Prologue. It’s been too long.
It’s almost as though somehow, the revelation that she’s not a virgin has rid Walky of his previous terror. That or, as I’ve advanced numerous times before, he’s an evil fucking genius and his “rictus of horror” face was his way of making Dotty make the first move.
I now feel both sad and dumb for checking to see if Willis had actually made a Wikipedia entry for this with a full episode synopsis and dialogue…my expectations were apparently to high.
Well, most episodes of shows don’t have their own detailed wikipedia entries. Usually, there will be a wiki specifically dedicated to a show and with an affectionate nickname (this one would probably be Dexterpedia or Monkeypedia or Headpedia). On those specific wikis, they go much more in-depth on the details of each episode, because, unlike the original wikipedia, they’re not restricted by “must have citations in news or journal articles” or whatever.
Jeff Wayne’s “War of the Worlds” for me: ‘No one would have believed in the last years of the 19th century, that human affairs were being watched from the timeless world of space’.. btw met my wife correcting her version of the Horta episode from Star Trek TOS while passing her & other nerdlings in hallway at uni. Walky/Dotty: “Open the Pod Bay doors, Hal”
Dorothy is such a neeeeeeeeeeeeeerd. And that’s awesome.
She’s even doing the voices!
And the *FACES*.
Don’t you mean the *FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACES* ?
How very Ethan of you Walky.
Ethan doesn’t seem to be too into online fandoms and wiki wars in Dumbing of Age, though, does he?
That’s the Ethan who grew up closeted in the 80s- there’s all sorts of nature/nurture shit going on here.
Well, we did see transformers in his posession. Remember when Joyce dismissed the idea that Ethan was gay because his toys weren’t dolls?
I wonder if there’s Monkey Master/Transformers rivalry in this universe.
The two fill pretty distinct niches in the fandom, I think. It’s not as though Dexter the Head Alien drives a Go-bot to work, after all.
heh, Trukk vs. Munky
Aww, their first fight =D
and not likely to be their last when it comes to this subject.
A battle of the geeks!
((Make out. Make out NOW.))
Has that ever worked?
Once, on a webcomic.
NOW KISS!
I wonder if this will result in Slap Slap Kiss.
No, nerd fight then kiss.
Nerd fights do involve sissy slaps and foam swords.
Then Kiss Kiss Bang Bang?
Only if we’re lucky. 😀
Bang bang? Shooting or a group activity?
Yes.
*shoots Shippy* Freaking smart ass.
Geeky turn-on?
Walky is not impress.
I are dissapoint.
Im 12 and what this
Shes base are belong to him
His expression in the last panel looks suspiciously like a Walky Trollface.
People demand that I recite the last Harry Potter movie when I joke that I have it memorized. They then learn that I’m not exactly joking.
Two measly lines ain’t gonna cut it, Dorothy.
I can do that with Empire Strikes Back, but I need prompting sometimes.
For me its the Big Lebowski.
mechaqua, this isn’t ‘Nam. This is the comments section of Dumbing of Age. There are rules.
Tristen J, ya know, it’s me, so my toe slipped over the line a little big deal It’s just a game, man.
I’d say I like your new gravatar, but that’s, just, like, my opinion man.
I’m sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.
For Me, it’s usually books that I wind up memorizing, not movies. for instance, I have recited the entire first chapter of “So you Want to be a Wizard” from memory. I think I could go farther, but I never got the chance.
Down Periscope for me.
“someone just dropped… 45 cents. A quarter and… two dimes.”
I’ve seen that damn movie so many times I can actually mimic Sonar mimicing whale calls. Pitch-correct.
Real Genius. “…and Kent. STOP PLAYING WITH YOURSELF!”
“It IS Jesus!”
I can pretty much recite Spaceballs. And, like so many others, Mony Python and the Holy Grail.
Transformers: The Movie is my quotable. I can recreate at least 80% of that flick… I can even do it in order if I have the musical score playing.
The one from 1986 mind, not the new ones.
I could do this with Fight Club, but I’m not allowed.
Well played.
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy over here. I used to be able to do the whole thing, but now I’m down to pretty much the Prologue. It’s been too long.
Conan the Barbarian (the first one, obviously).
Can’t recite a whole book start to finish, but I can do some big chunks of several of the Dresden Files and Belisarius books.
For me, Holy Grail, Johnny Dangerously, Army of Darkness, Princess Bride and Pirates of Penzance.
Johnny Dangerously, a movie that never got the acclaim it truly should have. Like Top Secret.
Inconceivable!
SCNR:-P
Jesus Christ, Superstar, including the two songs that were added for the movie and aren’t in the original stage production
Oh god, I hope these two date. So adorable.
Okay, that’s just plain awesome.
Dorothy just got burned!
This is actually better than them playing with the dolls. Actually, the way it’s going, it’ll probably end with them playing with the dolls.
Show me on the Dotty where the Monkey Master touched your doll.
So? I watched Transformers:The Movie five times and I can memorized about half of the dialog.
Did he edit it…with his penis?
For a nickel.
with your mom.
in her FAAAACE.
For Journalism.
Using only his femurs.
Butts
You win this round, Izzy.
Wouldn’t that mess up your touchscreen? 😛
Perhaps Walky uses a keyboard.
Like a sticky keyboard would be any better.
I think alot of boys use sticky keyboards and it doesn’t seem to stop them.
Mechaqua, I can’t tell if your name means “robot water” or if it’s a play on the “macaque” or both. Whatever the case… GENIUS.
Always puts me in mind of that Mexican carne asada and scrambled egg dish.
She did perform them well, though!
Uh oh, WIKI FIGHT!
Is this gonna be like the Ethan vs. David fight we had in a certain other unnamed comic?
If so, is mud going to be involved?
Wasn’t it pudding?
Pudding? Oh right! Sorry about that, my memory must have failed me.
Just so long as they don’t end up on TVTropes, this strip is slow enough as it is.
Dang, Walky kinda did a 180 with respect to Dorothy.
Cuz he’s in a comfort zone right now. Don’t worry, his mind will shatter shortly.
if only he was wearing pajama jeans in the comfort zone.
This can only lead to sex.
Welp, that’s the foreplay out of the way. Now to discuss who your favourite voice actor for Monkey Master was and it’s officially coitus.
Don’t know about Monkey Master, but Head Alien is a role just dying for Mark Hamill.
Just For Pun he should be voiced by Powers Boothe.
Oh, Grod, that was awful.
Really, in my head it is Bruce Campbell, although Patrick Warburton would be a good alternative.
There’s really only one Monkey Master voice for me. Michael Clarke Duncan.
Head Alien is played by Jon Lovitz, obviously.
Confirmed.
Of all the things to carry over from the Walkyverse, “Dorothy possessed by the Head Alien” is the last thing I would have expected.
When/how did Walky get the upper hand over Dorothy?! His transformation from drooling idiot to this is amazing.
It’s almost as though somehow, the revelation that she’s not a virgin has rid Walky of his previous terror. That or, as I’ve advanced numerous times before, he’s an evil fucking genius and his “rictus of horror” face was his way of making Dotty make the first move.
Oh no, it’s the comfort zone. It’s his World, and Dorothy’s just sauntering in it.
But he’s been showing more confidence around her in a lot of different situations.
Everybody watch out! Soon the foam swords and plastic missiles are going to come out!
Don’t forget the Nerf guns.
Foam Swords? Plastic Missiles? Is that what the young kids are calling it nowadays?
Sometimes men even call them Super-Soakers. 😀
It’s shit like this, Walky. It’s shit like this that shows us you’re secretly a goddamn evil genius.
Every single facial expression on this page is priceless. XD
I just realized… I’ve started reading Dotty’s lines and hearing the voice of Fionna from that one episode of Adventure Time.
Got it memorized?
Is it just me or did Walky just use reverse psychology on dorothy?
Yea this is me with futurama. Its quite bad when you can quote commentary lines.
“That is the nerdiest thing in the universe.”
Damn it, the internet lets me down again.
“… But it’s only the fifteenth nerdiest thing in Futurama.”
I’m starting to think we’re watching a Masterclass in slow seduction here…
Thank You! I’m still wondering how Walky got so much game. Yes it’s nerd game, but game none the less!
Tread lightly Walky, your messing with a woman with something to prove andshe just might shut you up with her wikipedia knowledge
Geek Flirting is the best Flirting. <3
I like to think I am a propponant of this webcomic but why do peopple wait until midnight to post in the comics section?
I now feel both sad and dumb for checking to see if Willis had actually made a Wikipedia entry for this with a full episode synopsis and dialogue…my expectations were apparently to high.
Well, most episodes of shows don’t have their own detailed wikipedia entries. Usually, there will be a wiki specifically dedicated to a show and with an affectionate nickname (this one would probably be Dexterpedia or Monkeypedia or Headpedia). On those specific wikis, they go much more in-depth on the details of each episode, because, unlike the original wikipedia, they’re not restricted by “must have citations in news or journal articles” or whatever.
The most rigorous courting process.
I used to have Jurassic Park memorized. That and several commercials, most of them involving Barbie or pain medication.
Oh, and I memorized the Monopoly board, but not the Chance or Community Chest cards.
Jeff Wayne’s “War of the Worlds” for me: ‘No one would have believed in the last years of the 19th century, that human affairs were being watched from the timeless world of space’.. btw met my wife correcting her version of the Horta episode from Star Trek TOS while passing her & other nerdlings in hallway at uni. Walky/Dotty: “Open the Pod Bay doors, Hal”
Am I the only one to notice that he appears to be wearing a “butttaco.org” t-shirt?
Sorry, that’s butt-taco.org
Thus begins the Nerd-Off!
To quote Robin from a completely different strip:
MAKE OUT ALREADY!
Not until they’re both quivering with anticip–
–pation.
OOHH SHIT DOROTHY!!! Walky is calling you out!
Step up and show him what’s what!!
these two are about to have angry sex
Wow. Those two are cute together.
Hang on. These two have been in a wiki editing war? I think we know how this plays out. There will be custard.
Nerd burn!
Unfortunatly, I SUCK at describing how the voices sound in my head.
Dexer (done by dorothy) sort of sounds like a boy version of Hermoine from the Harry Potter movies, though (young Hermoine, not adult)
I’ve got such a big smile on my face right now C: Like, reeeeeeally big.
Anyone else tempted to make a Dexter & Monkey Master TV Tropes page (y’know, like the Disney’s Anne Frank and Inspector Spacetime pages?)
Well, it took me over a year, but here it is.
Walky MIGHT be the Zen master of the slow game. We’ll have to see how that works out.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBeAjISBb2U
aww, walky’s acting like a normal person around dorothy. thats so cute.
So… Head Alien’s real name is Dexter?
I knew that she was a fan of the series but I didn’t suspect her be a huge geek.
LOL, Wiki edits wars. Are they go to fight in pudding?
This is so unbelievably cute. I feel like something’s going to go terribly wrong.
Oooh bickering about their nerd cred. They’re gonna make out soon.
I only just noticed that in the penultimate panel, Dorothy’s managed to make her left hand in HA’s claw. It’s really quite impressive.
Aaah. As a Wikipédia editor, I am finally represented in comics !
