sickdays:
amaditalks:
The recent illustrations of Siri, the iPhone 4S voice-recognition based assistant, failing to provide information to users about abortion, birth control, help after rape and help with domestic violence has gotten a lot of notice. Yesterday’s post with screenshots from a Twitter conversation I was a part of has netted 200+ notes the last I looked.
There have been a number...

wackd asked: So, we've gotten an awful lot of background regarding how the cast of Roomies/Walky came to be, but surprisingly little development insight on the development of Shortpacked's core cast. I take it they're much more recent characters. I'm curious.

evilllama001 asked: I was just wondering about how Leslie views her time with Robin. Does she consider it a waste? And does she still love her?

thepreciousthing asked: So I started reading Shortpacked! in 2005-6 ish, but now I'm FINALLY managing to read through the old Walkyverse. I've just gotten a bit into the beginning of "It's Walky!"

futabakun asked: Is there a link on your Dumbing of Age page that leads directly to Shortpacked? Am I just overlooking it repeatedly?

pivitor asked: So what made you decide to create Malaya? You said you feel it gave Shortpacked! a good swift kick in the arse--did you feel the strip was stagnating?

stuff-and-that asked: Hey, just wanted to say that I love Malaya. She is not someone who I'd want to be friends with were she real, but she's an amazing, interesting character and her introduction greatly increased my enjoyment of the comic. I don't read the comments so I only caught wind of the widespread dislike of her recently and I was shocked! She is great. Thanks for creating her =]
wackd asked: So, is your nickname Walky because of "It's Walky!", or is the comic's main character Walky because that's your nickname?

Where's The Beef?: Malaya, or Why I Like... →
beeftony:
Those of you who follow David Willis’ webcomic Shortpacked! are already familiar with Malaya, the potty-mouthed, misanthropic Filipino girl who alienates everyone around her and despises nerd culture in general. And you probably hate her.
And for good reason, too. By Willis’ own…
Malaya is my favorite.
