I’ve overcome my problems!

Location: Ruth's house
Ruth would have died way happier if she’d gotten to punch Mary.
But seriously, never leave a room angry without first punching someone in the face. The sound effect of Billie’s fist hitting Mary’s cheek should be YOLO!
Huh. I remembered this differently. Still good! [more or less]
I honestly forgot that Mary got punched by Billie. I cheered a little.
I remember the punching, but thought it happened later, near the end.
The end is nigh.
I remembered somehow Danny got some balls and punched Mary, thereby redeeming himself forever.
I guess I was being generous.
I’d say Ruth died happier in the actual way things played out, due to never actually having to meet Mary.
Fair point. Really, what actually matters is that if you must meet Mary, you get to punch her in the face.
And that is why Sal was always angry, despite being a “friend” of Mary’s she never got to punch her in the face.
Hey, at least in DoA Ruth got to cock-slap Mary in the face. 😀
Can I punch Mary too?
According to your gravatar, you already did.
No offense, but I would be very happy if the YOLO thing never appeared.
Also, i’m happy that I forgot this.
It makes the feeling of reseeing this so much better.
Are we sure she’s not drunk?
There’s a weird inconsticency with the final panel. THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL MARIE IS STILL STANDING AFTER A BILLIE PUNCH.
She’s holding on to Joe’s shoulder to keep standing.
What’s that above Mary’s head in the last panel? A floating thumbtack?
Someone throwing a dart at the back of her head?
The Head Alien miniaturized a spacecraft so that he could watch Mary get punched.
Apparently, not even HE is completely devoid of goodness and humanity.
You Obviously Like Owls?
I’m sorry, but I simply must know what this sentence means.
It’s Jeph Jacques (of Questionable Content)’s YOLO parody tee-shirt. It then got ripped off by other online shops.
Mary ought to be laying on the floor, Billie hits hard.
I have no idea what the comments are about tonight. Total brain fart.
god I love billie!!!
Clearly, this is the greatest strip in all of Roomies.
I do like Sarah’s vaguely-innocent look in the last panel.
Punched in the FAAACCE!!!
I’m conflicted.
Hurray, Mary got punched! But the writing is… bad. She just sounds so awkward. Your writing definitely got way better
I think this strip showcases some of the best writing in all of Roomies.
What frustrates me is that Billie could have drunk at the party AND saw Mary having sex.
Its not one or the other!
I hate children!
