This has actually happened to me. I had no access to a charger and my phone was off all day which didn't bother me since it was before smart phones and I didn't use it for internet access anyway.

panel one - unclear if she's texting or talking
panel two - unclear if it's a reply or her text

becomes clear by 4th panel. joke hits. mouseover is funny.

verdict - requires rereading, not a serial scan. better tho.

Nice. Another good one.

Missing panel: him and her in the sack.

Still good, but like Koanic pointed out, some onomatopoeia will come in handy

The CronoLink said...

That and a different type of "speech cloud".

You're going to have to adopt the "txt spk" for texting in strip in the future. That "you" should be "u" to match the illiteracy of the age.

I totally thought the last panel was going to be that he was doing it on purpose to game her.

For sure though, this is the immediate conclusion a chick would jump to.

Was forced to rewatch "The Bodyguard" last night. Thanks a lot Vox, you have ruined nearly every freakin movie for me. She was doing nothing but throwing tempertantrums and it is seen as a great love story! Yikes.

Carlotta said...

I agree on panel one. I wasn't sure if she was talking, texting or reading a txt. Maybe a block around the words if txting and not if speaking. I don't know. Maybe I just need more coffee to get with it :)

That facial expression... you're a terrible artist.

The only thing I'd have done different drawing-wise is either draw longer fingernails or a girlie ring on the typing hand in frame two. The faces are fine.

Ghost said...

The only thing missing are the 29 voicemails that would go along with those texts... And the 35 emails... Because bitches be crazy.

Stickwick said...

The font, the lack of caps, and the "lol" made it obvious to me that she was texting in the first panel.

I have done the text- and call-bombing with my own husband, and worry when he doesn't respond. Usually it's because he forgot his phone in the car or the battery ran out, but I just assume he's been kidnapped by a Mexican drug cartel and they're waiting for the opportune time to send instructions.

The only thing I'd have done differently is everything. Hypergamouse is absolute shit.

Just because you don't understand something, doesn't mean it's shit...

Very good. The fact that the guy isn't gaming her is even better. I suspect this has happened to most guys at some point. Either he forgot his phone, left it in his jacket pocket (ringer off), or he's engrossed in something (game, another woman, etc).

Of course, some guys simply don't learn from these experiences and begin to apologize, playing right into her hands...

Pretty much explains a woman's way of thinking, narcissistic to the core.

Boyz, if you want the grrrrrrl, ignore, ignore, they can't help themselves.

Carlotta said...

Ah my friend, it didn't do that for me because I am surrounded by people who do not laugh but will actually SAY "LOL" when something is funny.

Now if your Husband gets in a bind, don't forget the Donut-Fu! And then make sure he feeds them to you....LOL

It's more like the natural alphas learn the principles of Game, albeit not by that name and not as rules you could verbalize, by these kind of little accidents. And they look down on Game because they think these things should be blatantly obvious to every man, and having to write them down is just some pathetic, nerdy impulse.

It's just that the people who need it written down haven't had the opportunity to learn by experience.

What a coincidence that Dimwit Dan started his broken record at VP at the same time about the same thing.

Life is full of little coincidences.

What a coincidence that Hypergamouse looks like it was drawn by a team of drowning mental patients.

Desert Cat said...

Dan, that severe case of tibial odaxelagnia you have is rather gruesome and fairly appalling to observe.

You can get help for that, you know. You don't have to suffer alone.

But innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we've been thinking about a problem.

Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.

You can't really say what is beautiful about a place, but the image of the place will remain vividly with you.

jhoney said...

Though beauty gives you a weird sense of entitlement, it's rather frightening and threatening to have others ascribe such importance to something you know you're just renting for a while.
