See some ID
on February 18, 2014 at 12:01 amThat guy in glasses was my roommate Steve. He and another guy (internet nickname Tonyfitz) actually did this at BotCon. They stood in front of the bathrooms and demanded to see ID from people before they could go in. Most folks fell for it. Hell, we were all nineteen and gullible. Eventually they carded one of the two guys who ran BotCon. A success all around, I’d say.
anyway have some awful sexual harassment presented as a joke

HAHA, it’s Hilariously Sexist!
Don’t worry, Willis, the fact that the story actually happened makes up for the grossness of the punchline. (By that, meaning the carding thing, not the harassment thing)
Wait, they carded one of the guys who ran BotCon? Did they fall for it?
When you’re high enough in the chain, you don’t have to know all the details of how your thing is run. It wouldn’t be impossible to trick them into believing you work for them in a position you forgot didn’t exist.
It can work the other way too. One of my uncles is notorious in our family for being able to get into VIP areas.
And then Joe gets arrested for trying to strip search a sixteen-year-old.
I like to think that Joe doesn’t actually do the strip-searching and immediately punches Steve in the jaw off-panel.
Given that, from his hand gestures, Joe seems to think that “card” means “boob-honk”, I think that’s unlikely.
This ain’t Dumbiverse Joe, or even late-It’s-Walky Joe.
it’s funny because we were all basically terrible human beings back in the day.
i can’t wait for you to get to the strips about how i’m some kind of super-creeper.
You know, I could shake Joe’s line off as just him doing it to check out women, if it wasn’t for how he was holding his hands.
