LupinThe8th

I was the second guy at a job with my first name, so I got good-naturedly dubbed "Second-(my name)". I got so used to it that I once introduced myself as that to someone who hadn't even met First-(my name) and really confused them.

LupinThe8th

She's about 5 minutes too late.

Astariel

Yay regular Rachel! Joyce, consider skipping Biology to have more sex with Dorothy. That's sort of like studying Biology, in a way. Just a nitpick: Triumvirate is spelled thusly. (Sorry, ancient history major.)

Ragtime

This whole calling Rachel "other Rachel" reminds me of how Howard was treated in Roomies. I really hope she gets to just be Rachel one day.

EVERYTHING’S COMIN’ UP OTHER RACHEL! NOTHIN’S COMIN’ UP BECKY

Good for you, [ Other | Regular ] Rachel.

Sajuuk-Khar

FUCK YOU DID IT BEFORE ME

Dan Rabin

Thrice-functional strip: 1. wraps up the Joyce/Dorothy/Becky encounter, 2. Sets up expectations about biology class (in which Joyce and Joe are still lab partners, we must recall), 3. Swerves to Other Rachel for the somewhat-meta joke, which places a punctuation mark on the shower thread.

Harold

"I used to be Other Rachel. Now I'm Regular Rachel. Thank you, Dulcolax!"

Kelly (they-them)

The second Lupin the 8th? Wouldn't that make you Lupin the 9th?

HenryVolt

Her dumb butt really did not stop to think about biology. She seriously was just planning to skip by on cloud 9 and diddle her new girlfriend and not have to even think about having any real interaction with any of those 3 people. I'm surprised she didn't think of this the last time she had an unplanned encounter with her recent ex.

Harold

By the end of this morning, Professor Brock will be contemplating taking that buyout offer

C

...Oof Rachel, oof. Gotta pull back on the self-deprecation a tad.

LupinThe8th

You'd think, but it got entered into the employee database wrong as Lupin the 8th ^2 and I became Lupin the 64th.

Jennifer Novelli

Ahhh, that's the good stuff. I gotta be honest, recently I've been fighting off being like Vyv on The Young Ones when he had that breakdown about Last of the Summer Wine: "It's just so bloody NICE and I HATE IT!!!" And yes, I'm aware that makes me look like both a massive grump and the kind of nerd who references British sitcoms from the 80's. I've made peace with this. ^_^

Harold

@Dan Rabin: Re 2. - don't forget that the currently-splitsville Becky and Dina are *also* lab partners. I'm sensing a partner switch (in the lab sense only) may be in the offing; Dina/Joe and Joyce/Becky seems more likely than the other way around, although the idea of Joyce and Dina trying to be lab partners certainly has high hilarity potential. (High homicidal potential, as well.)

Logibear

... did Joyce forget that Joe was her Biology Partner? (innuendo intended)

Railway Series Book Club

i've been eagerly anticipating the Biology Class of Doom, i cannot wait to see how that shakes out

Dan

Something wrong with the page.

Lazuli

so she wants to actively avoid joe. this will surely go well.

MST3K.fan: The Cheesy Movie Essays

Man, it's been an excruciating amount of real time of Becks and Joyce being estranged. I want these former besties back together. And especially Becky and Dina, dammit! That inflatable raptor is so lonely!

Jennifer Novelli

Yeah, I haven't been buying the whole "she and Joe are gonna be mature about this" angle. Joe, definitely, but like Kelso before her, Joyce is gonna juggle this until it blows up in her face.

Jennifer Novelli

Well, one thing is certain: everyone will NOT be getting lemonade!

Tessea

Well... Now I'm certain which one is Other Rachel. And knowing is half the battle.

Lazuli

im gonna clean the yolk off my face for thinking joyce would actually talk to joe

Spartacus

I don't think Joe's taking this maturely, he's just not standing up for himself

Logibear

Pretty sure Joe has been clear about what he wants from Joyce. Joyce however has actively said "we'll talk later" twice and shown no sign of actually wanting to do that

Logibear

You are all gremlins because you're anticipating Bio Class. I am a gremlin because I cant wait for the inevitable Joe and Dorothy interaction. We are not the same.

Julian Williams

Joyce is going to skip biology and we're going to yet again stall Dorothy finding out she and Joe are not broken up.

Lazuli

jokes on you! i want both! two hotdogs meme dot png point jpeg

Lazuli

i cant say there wont be schadenfreude when that happens.

Fart Captor

Oh god I hope she and Dina haven't already talked, if she's still sad AFTER that it doesn't bode well

Logibear

I feel like we'd get to see it as it seems like something fairly consequential... this might just be me coping though.

Jesse

I vote this Rachel gets to be Regular Rachel. The other one’s a sanctimonious asshole.

Tessea

Oh no, I think you're right. Dorothy might learn about what Joe said from Joe himself... Dorothy is going to be pissed at her if that happens, And Joe will feel even worse that Joyce didn't even bring it up. Or plot twist: Joyce and Dorothy actually had a long talk about it off camera.

Railway Series Book Club

hey *i* was hoping for joe and dorothy to chat before joyce ran into him again with dina, i'm waiting ANXIOUSLY for that trainwreck

Sajuuk-Khar

In the end, there can be only one Rachel. This Rachel.

Sajuuk-Khar

I’m just here to watch Dina abandon Becky to suffering and death

Sajuuk-Khar

Or to getting eaten wildly by Alice/Ruth, which is like suffering and death in a way

Sajuuk-Khar

That Raptor has seen its last fuck, friend

Simon Magid

All hail the Rachel of Rachels.

Simon Magid

So many gremlins here. I hope no-one is ever careless enough to feed us after midnight.

Simon Magid

From its expression it has at the very least given it

HenryVolt

Joe wasn't even on her mind except for the one time she unintentionally crossed paths with him.

HenryVolt

They feel broken up though...if not then being put on the shelf indefinitely while your other is enjoying their time with another so much that your not even an thought in their mind is a healthy relationship.

Empress of Robots

This is my Rachel. There are many like her but this one is mine!

Yue Ryong

...Wasn't it The Goode Life?

Jennifer Novelli

It very well may have been. I've never seen either.

Sajuuk-Khar

How do you think we got here in the first place ya mogwai

Sajuuk-Khar

See, THAT’S why the showers are gross, LESSER Rachel! (The freckled one)

Jayne Lindgren

Joe and Joyce are absolutely broken up. What Joe offered was a way for them not to be, to which Joyce responded negatively and then said "we'll talk." Since that talk hasn't happened, and since Joyce has been very much not acting like she is still with Joe actively, I don't see how anyone could assume they're still together in any meaningful way right now.

My job we have old Alex (been with us 3 years) and new Alex (less then a month). Old Alex is pushing 25. New Alex is 50. We had our direct boss go on vacation and his temp was very confused

Empress of Robots

Everyone get your "I failed Bio 101 because Joyce fucked Dorothy and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" shirts ready!!!

Harold

@Jennifer Novelli: It took me forever to realize you were referring to Kelso from THAT '70s SHOW. I kept trying to recall Dr. Kelso from SCRUBS being in this kind of situation.

Jennifer Novelli

Well, that Doctor had his share of days that didn't go according to plan! ^_^

Maude Reads Things

Ooof, 'other Rachel' has done a number on the girl's self-image huh?

tifani

It feels like forever because of the hell that is how time works in this comic but in reality it’s been like 3 days since Joe told her to think about what she wants while she figures her self out. This was a break, not a break up.

tifani

I think there’s a difference between someone not being on your mind vs actively avoiding thinking about someone.

tifani

If Joyce goes to biology she can no longer put off the talk with Joe. This talk will decide if they go the poly route or they actually break up. She put off making a decision about this for as long as she could. But for anyone thinking she’s going to look him in the eyes and tell him she’s decided I just don’t see that happening. The amount of real world time it’s taken to get here makes a tidy solution impossible. They’re going to talk. She’s going to come to the conclusion she wants him and Dorothy and she is going to freak the fuck out about it.

@tifani If she does say she's decided, I expect someone to pull the fire alarm before she can say what the decision actually *was"...
