Oh, he had a choice: “….behind you there is a door. If at any time in this interview you feel you wish to leave, you have only to step through it and you will never hear from me again.”
I forget how well it’s been explored, but when Mike is drunk, he may be nice but he’s still drunk, right? So I’ll bet sober Mike would never let a half-rhyme such as this pass his lips (unless it was to intentionally piss off a rhyme stickler), but drunk Mike has lower rhyming standards.
My boyfriend called me “moist” last night (I have a small bed and we are going through yet another heat wave. I was sweaty). It’s basically never any better than “amusingly unsexy” when put in conjunction with one’s person.
Don’t get too heartbroken, Walky. Remember, this is alt-Mike; I think Joyce is enjoying the bizarro-world behaviour; I doubt that she’s that interested in him!
Didn’t G1 Hoist (Transformers) have an entire episode where a director was calling him “Moist”? (Hoist Goes Hollywood) Bleah. Now, I’ll have to go watch that episode, again.
Unless you’re Moist von Lipwig. Then you have no choice.
On the contrary, he’s had dozens of other names. Shame Vetinari hanged all of them.
To be fair, it was only Alfred Spangler that got hanged. Moist just knows that any of the others would wind up following suit. ;P
Pratchett fans!!! (tackle hugs you all)
Let’s hug all together in one place until the turtle flips over!

Well he is also called Mr. Slightly Damp, but if that is an improvment I don’t know.
… Well, it’s not Moist von Lipwig, so I’d put it as a slight improvement.
Such an unusual name, “Latrine.” How did your family come by it?
We changed it in the 9th century.
You mean you changed it TO “Latrine”?
Yeah. Used to be “Shithouse.”
It’s a good change. That’s a good change!
*no choicet
walky actually looks like modern walky here
in panel two, mind
Foist
yeahno
Foist by your own petard
Third panel Mike definitely looks like he’s licking Joyce’s hand, not kissing it. It’s that little extra line by his mouth that does it.
To me, it’s pretty clearly his thumb. Even now you pointed it out, I have trouble seeing it as his tongue.
OK this is just creepy and would he know that?….actually I don’t want to know
Walky has clearly never heard of Assonance.
Moist and Joyce doesn’t rythme ?
Not unless you pronounce it Mois’ or Joist.
Like Orange and Dor’inge (English for door hinge) hehe.
Moist von Lipwig came to my mind also. Time to go dig up some of my older Pratchett’s.

Nah, I think Sober Mike would somehow rhyme “mother” and “nickel” together, then punch anybody who would disagree.

Well, this won’t be the last time Walky beats up Mike over a girl. Although this one is less tragic, so it’s popcorn time!

Even the Twitter display name is relevant
No, Joyce, stop, you can’t build a relationship with a guy you can only like when he’s drunk.
Drunk Mike is bad, but why does everyone hate the word “moist”?
