Well then, Mr. Willis, that had me laughing . good job.
Uh, Mike? I don’t think it’s a suprise anymore.
The mom fucking I mean. It’s your calling card.
This. My first thought when I read this page was, paraphrasing YGO:tAS, “oh Mike, with you it’s never a surprise.”
This wouldn’t happen to be a veiled commentary about the controversial storyline that recently happened in some other webcomic, would it Mr. Willis?
I honestly, genuinely have no idea what you’re talking about! So, no. This storyline was planned over a year ago.
Annnnd now I’m curious.
If you genuinely do not know what I’m talking about and you’re not just messing with me, I’m referring to a recent Menage a 3 storyline. One of the characters, Zii, gets trolled and banned from an internet message board by a kid. In retaliation, Zii tracks down the kids address, has sex with his Mom, and then convinces his Mom to divorce his Dad, basically destroying his family life. A very “Mike” move for a character thats not supposed to be Mike. And she’s treated by the comic as being completely in the right for doing this. It basically split the fans on the Menage a 3 message board over whether it was funny or just plain horrible.
The last panel of this comic definitely seemed to me to be a shot at it.
It’s only a reference to how Mike says that he fucked your mom all the time.
Mike would have a fairly hard time destroying Amber’s family life.
You act like Mike wouldn’t be up to the challenge?
Eh, forget it. Its just me reading to much into a panel I guess. My apologies to Mr. Willis if I offended him by misinterpreting his intent.
Mike likes a challenge.
Four words: “I fucked your Dad.”
Wow. People get their knickers all twisted over the dumbest things.
Wow. I read that comic, but I don’t go to the message boards. I thought it was a combination of horrible and awesome, but that’s just me.
The family was already destroyed by the time she ever saw his screen-name, by his cheating father.
It’s positively mindboggling that people think that her staying in the marriage would be better for ANYONE than divorcing him.
Maybe for the husband, who gets to have a wife at home taking care of him, while getting the tail he wants on the side. But for Angele, being stuck in a marriage that’s making her miserable, with a man who has no respect for her, and for Vynny having parents who don’t respect each other (and a mother who doesn’t respect herself) are nothing to be desired.
I think it would be pretty rude and disrespectful to get into a discussion about one webcomic in the comments section of a completely different webcomic. I only brought it up in the first place because I incorrectly thought the last panel of this webcomic was meant as a shout out/take that to Menage a 3, and I’m sorry that I did. I’ll just say that I disagree with your assessment of the situation and not comment further about it.
It’s also a little dumb to say it’s disrespectful to talk about one comic somewhere else, drop a big ol’ paragraph and then make sure, in the last sentence, to reply to the person. It’s like saying, “You’re rude, don’t do it, also your wrong” and then skipping off with some thought that they’ll never reply or get to.
Wait, so is Amber giving him permission to fuck her mom? Because with that wording it could be taken as Amber suggesting “Hey Mike, you know what’d be funny? You nailing my mom.”
For Mike, boning Amber’s mum would be considered his best behaviour. As long as he gave it his best.
Yeah, think how rude it would be if he boned her badly.
Glad to see I’m not the only one who read it that way.
It looks like she’s saying, be sure to get freaky with my mom, cause that would be hilarious.
Yep, that’s how I read it. She said be on his best behaviour… that includes. No “don’t” “not” or anything.
How could his hair POSSIBLY get straighter!?
Is it wrong that I think Mike’s little disappointed face is adorable? Because it totally is.
No, you’re right, it is adorable.
I had a guy come in my store today that looked like a real life mike with the frown and everything and he was hot as hell. I can only imagine what his disappointed face would look like.
Between you and my I don’t think Mike’s hair is gettin’ any straighter. It’s hit the singularity already
Well, I can see where you got the book’s title from.
Bit of a spoiler though, isn’t it?
My favourite line:
Amber: “My mom will be here shortly.”
Mike: “Your mom will be here shortly.”
Theno
+1
The comic has two punchlines.
I love it when Amber talks dirty.
To be fair, think about if you actually nailed the mother of someone you knew. You’d always have that over them. Even if they kicked your ass, you would heal but you would always be able to say you boned their mom.
That’s why YOUR DAD is such a motherfucker.
Like I said in the now neglected forums, there are other things that Mike can do with Amber’s mom, just to mess with Amber.
WHIPPED. I wonder how long till the shit hits the fan. There’s no way Mike can remain in this state forever.
Mike vs Death-Ray Hamsters! With giant monsters and flying cars supporting each side! Explosions! Aliens! Reagan Nixon smackdown!
Or we can just have… feeeelings… nothing more than feeeelings.
Apparently this strip is blocked by Parental Control on the grounds of “Database (Pornography, Erotic Materials, Explicit Language)” although the previous strips aren’t. I guess even web filters read this comic, strip by strip.
See Willis, this is when you lost the young crowd. And all for writing fuck. Clearly you’re not using it enough.
a old fart like me, dont mind the kiddos stop reading words like “fuck” sometimes for a change, they should go read some bible! when they become 17 like me, maybe then, they can spend time on the internet those little fucking fuck yungsters.
how can mike straighten his hair? its like Perma-straight.
Aww, but Amber’s mom will be so disappointed.
My favorite point in the comic is the second panel.
Amber: “My mom will be here shortly.”
Mike: “Your mom will be here shortly.”
It’s like, he doesn’t even have to think about it any more. He tells Yo Mama jokes reflexively, without realizing it, and without being able to stop.
