I like this side of Leslie. I think I could live with a lot more of it.
I’d steal the laptop and smack Roz over the head with it, then drag her into the street. Someone might want her.
But if you just change the router’s password she will still have internet. They will have to change their WEP key too. Or do they not use encryption?
I think it was pretty clear they intend to to change the wireless key, not the router password.
And don’t use WEP. WEP is bad.
Hang on, how on earth are “wi-fi password” and “WEP key” any different? What do YOU mean when you say “wi-fi password?”
Also, second on the WEP key. Don’t use it. I can hack a WEP key in about 40 seconds, and I can’t hack anything.
I think Dorp is thinking of the password set on the wireless router itself that you need in order to change its settings, which is (or at least should be) completely different from the key.
WPA, I assume
WEP works just fine for 99% of cases: random non-hackers in the vicinity who are looking to mooch your wifi. And if you want to use your DS online, your choices are WEP or nothing. Given those options, I’ll take WEP.
Better yet – get Mike to change the password.
LOGIN: yourmom
PASSWORD: ******
I see what you did there.
I suppose just telling her that she cannot stay there is just too reasonable and logical.
Oh like she’d listen.
That’ll hurt the whores wallet.
Thats nicer then what I would do, I would wait till she was asleep, douse the bed with gas and put a cigarette in her mouth… and run like crazy. Then sue her (if she lived) for trying to burning down my house. Of course I would just happen to have a bucket of dirt to stop the fire before it got too bad.
Gasoline is probably not the best combustion agent for a fire you intend to put out before it gets too bad.
As long as I use dirt and a VERY small amount of gas it would probably be fine. Not water though, water would be VERY VERY bad at putting out that fire.
I am terrified to see how you interact with disagreable people at work.
I’m very nice to them actually. I’m getting paid to be nice at work. However, on my private time, heads will roll…
Or… Ya know, you could confront her about it and tell her to leave…? That could maybe work. :p
Rationality? In my Shortpacked!?
It’s far less likely than you think.
Well, Roz started secretly living there. I doubt she really would care if she were asked to leave. She’d probably go “Okay, I’m leaving” and then just continue to keep living there.
I would have said fill the air mattress with helium, but that works too.
I’d write a virus so that when she turns on her webcam, it displays for her normally, but the broadcasted feed is actually of a cam you set up elsewhere. Likely the hamster cage. No long-term harm, but embarrassing and forces her to talk to you.
Bah, your no fun! Long term harm is the best teacher! Just ask Superman! After all didn’t he consistently ruin peoples lives just to teach them some small point. Like don’t run with scissors?
forget the hamster cage, put the secret cam in Ethan’s room so when people go to her site, they will get some Ethan and Drew nakie action instead. Her regular clientel will stop paying!!! Though she may end up with an entirely new group of clients… so maybe that would backfire. Would still be funny to see though.
Speaking of, Willis, where is a strip showing Ethan and Drew banging? The audience demands it! (Though the internet is huge, so someone else probably already drew it and posted it somewhere.) –starts search–
Remember that camp movie where the kids drag the sleeping counselor and their mattress out to the lake and turn the mattress into a raft? She’d have to be a light sleeper, sure.
Hehehehe…
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO LESLIE IS CRUEL!!!! WHYYYYY!!!!!!
this is far greater torture than murder O_O
Damn, Leslie. That’s harsh.
Justified, though. And what’s Roz going to do, complain about it? “You cut off the wireless access that I was stealing from you!”
I like the odd angles of the last two panels.
I know — it’s like a 1960′s Batman TV show “Villain Shot”
Leslie declares no war, makes no confrontation, takes no prisoners. She simply launches a surgical strike to destroy her enemies before they even know that they’re her enemies.
No gods! No kings! Only LESLIE!
Even better would be to NOT change the password but instead install one of those key capture programs and give all her personal info to any and all likely identity thieves.
Finally some one makes a suggestion I agree with.
Gee, because y’know, asking her to leave is apparently a little too reasonable for Leslie…. And apparently 90% of the commentors too.
If I were in Leslie’s shoes I would confront Roz about her moving in uninvited, inform her of who exactly owns the house and then give her a week to move out.
But that’s just me.
Well, I’m sure that most people who read this comic are actually reading it for the realism, and want to see sound examples of normal interpersonal communication and rational problem-solving… But then again, this is a comic where one of the characters eats urinal cakes. So maybe that is just you.
Eh — as I said earlier, Roz is likely to ignore reason and just do whatever she wants anyways. Taking the “Change the WiFi password” route (which doesn’t physically harm, merely deprive someone of a service they haven’t been paying for anyways) might be a tad passive aggressive, but it’s not the least reasonable action on Leslie’s part.
Really, the best solution is to call the cops and have her busted for tresspassing.
You’d give someone a week to move out, when they moved in in the first place entirely without your permission or even knowledge? Really?
Yes. Yes I would. And I am proud of that fact.
I’m sure the squatters living in your attic appreciate you for it.
It’s like Office Space. Don’t actually fire the guy. Just stop paying him.
Didn’t that guy set the whole building on fire though?
I somehow think Roz will work things out in her benefit. I can see her making changes to the house to “Damn it feels good to be a gangsta”.
I have this image in my head of Mike and Leslie teaming up against some great evil… With “Unit Rocks”playing in the background.
