Webcomic Discussion Thread!
Welu:
To be "damned" is to be condemned by god and sent to eternal punishment in hell. So for a Christian like Joyce, yeah, it's a serious word. It's also not just about the word, it's a respect issue.
If my friend told me they didn't want me to say the word, "table" around them or expect them to say it, it might seem odd to me but it's basic respect to acknowledge and try to adhere to their wishes. If it remained a point of contention one or both of us couldn't get past, then we probably couldn't be friends. Although Joyce and Joe aren't friends as such so that's why the whole discussion/argument is happening.
LeeC:
not to mention Joyce never had a problem (from what I can tell) about other people swearing, its just that she doesn't want to. It makes her uncomfortable, and when she does say it, it will be ground breaking how much that person has upset her. :-D Joe's just being an antagonistic guy trying to get her to go back on her own convictions.
Welu:
Joe's antagonism towards her is understandable considering their brief date. :mrgreen: She also acknowledges some day she might swear, she just doesn't want to use words that are mainly to evoke emphasis flippantly.

Do you think he is doing it to get into her pants or does he really think she needs to lighten up and by coincidence continue the independent streak she started during Parents Weekend?

I think it's the latter. I think Joe's interaction with Sarah in this arc shows that he isn't that dumb.
