Location: Danny and Joe's dorm room
“Yes, Â Howard, you too could have been invited to this party and potentially have gotten lucky with your sister.”

Who else but Howard??
*Laugh Track*
Incest!
…Cancer incest?
Loins?
Oh, Danny, you poor child, you must have had it rough in high school.
Well, Sal wanted to, but in honesty he didn’t have it at all.
There…there were other girls there, why would you…
Giving us a glimpse into the Lesse family psyche that the story didn’t actually give?
…And over in Dumbing of Age, Danny returning to his room where Joe is has a completely different outcome.
Coincidence? I think not!
What are the odds that both the BBR and DOA strips today would be about Joe admonishing Danny for not getting laid as the latter enters their dorm room?
Probably more likely than you’d think, considering how much of these characters’ interactions in both universes fall into that pattern…
Wait, what was Joe doing on the computer that late at night?
Starting an assignment due the next day.
or scanning porn sites?
Starting an assignment while scanning porn sites.
Starting an assignment ABOUT scanning porn sites.
Scanning teacher related porn sites to get an inspirational picture for starting an assignment…?
Scanning porn sites, finding their teacher starring in one of them, and being reminded to start the assignment.
Is that not normal?
For Joe, yes.
Scanning porn sites, finding their teacher starring in one of them, easily getting top scores without handing in the assignment, after a short phone call to said teacher?
“Normal people don’t sit at home and look at porn on the Internet!”
At least not in 1997! There’s like 4 images on here!
Not to mention the loading.
“Aw man, this’ll be so hot in two to four hours!”
Oh, please. The internet has been full of porn from the moment it stopped being a military research project. Probably earlier.
Everything’s porn, to a number of particular individuals.
When correctly viewed, everything is lewd…
They made a song about it. I’ve listened to it.
Some.
Yeah, but back then, stories tended to dominate. There was a fair amount of pics around, but getting them on dial-up was a pain. It was the age of the Lemon! (I don’t think they still call them that, do they?)
HEY! This is 1998. There are at least five.
Oh man, the dark ages of the internet. So many memories, none of them particularly fond.
Eh, it was better than the 4Chan era, at least. That’s… about all I can say good, though.
Wow. Even Howard has more game than Danny.
I love how both DoA and Roomies! today have Joe being disappointed in Danny not having sex when the opportunity presented itself.
The more things change…
I wonder how disappointed Roomies!Danny would be in DoA!Danny if he learned of DoA!Danny’s premarital hanky panky-having.
Well, he was making out with Sal in the Showalter Fountain, but technically that was added in later.
Danny, you’re like, 19 years old. Unless you’re an extremely late bloomer or asexual, you have to at least acknowledge loins are going to enter the equation at some point.
Roomies without Danny:
Joe grudgingly acknowledges his emotional maturity.

I want to say “no Danny” but if we’re talking about 19 year olds at a liberal-ish college… Joe is probably closer to being right.
We men get older and find different thing to focus on (particularly if THAT thing is a need being regularly satisfied. Hungry people seem obsessed with food; thirsty people seem obsessed with drinks. Those with full stomachs and… “moist throats” I guess… have an easier time prioritizing other matters.
