- Sandra: Hey, Zoey, do you know what water polo is famous for?
- Zoey: For being extremely exhausting?
- Sandra: Dirty fouls below the surface!
- Zoey: You wouldn’t dare…!
- Sandra: Booop!
- Zoey: AIEEE!! Take your nerdy fingers off me!
- Zoey: That doesn’t count!

Finally, Sandra is getting some sweet revenge against Zoey.
That’s one serious revenge face Sandra has in panel 4!
She hasn’t even been in 10 strips yet, but I’m enjoying Taylor as a character.
How would a water polo 1 on 1 even work? Are they just throwing balls around until it lands in the goal and hoping the other person doesn’t grab it?
So Sandra’s playing Donald to Zoey’s Hillary…

Sort of. Having played water polo in the past it could be done in two ways.
1. Play it half court, think penalty kicks in soccer with one player in goal and the other using half the pool to swim and try and score. After each scoring attempt switch out who’s in goal (also gives each player a slight chance to recover while being in goal).
2. Full pool but lots of sprinting. Toss the ball ahead and sprint swim to get it while keeping the other player away. Much more exhausting but doable.
From the look of this strip it appears to be option 1. At least they are allowing both Zoey and Sandra to stand on the pool bottom and not keep their feet off it. In any event this is looking like a very entertaining game.
Finally as to Sandra’s comment re fouls she is more vulnerable then Zoey if Zoey decides to tug on a hanging string during any chase. Hard to hold on to the ball if you have to hold something else in place.
Noooooo how dare she do that to Zoey!!!!!!!!
Okay, I guess anything goes, but isn’t that bordering on bad touch? Also I’m guessing Zoey will bathe heavily to remove all trace of nerd from her body.
But as long as Taylor’s happy I guess.
I guess Zoe’s ticklish
So that’s why there isn’t coed water polo… dirty fouls below the surface.
Even the Russians are shocked at the ruthless nature of this judge! But will Zoey plan a diabolical comeback?
Sorry, Zoey, it does too.
We are rapidly approaching strip 1000. Will there be something special in store for that one?
That doesn’t _look_ like a groin shot, and is too off-center for a bellybutton poke. Has Zoey got an injury or something we don’t know about?
@ Vicious Sand: Spoken like you have never seen someone flip out for being poked.
@ Anonymous Alias:
Maybe we’ll finally get the cypher for the Book of Woo
@ Nathan:
Just to add on, the reason I say this comes from the description of comic 500:
“There is no deadline. I will not publish the solution until at least strip #1000.”

We can hope so
Sandra’s face on the fourth panel! LOL
Watch out, Sandra. There’s a reason why water polo isn’t played in a bikini.
Heh I remember when a friend told me about water polo and whats happening below the surface…
not a game for boys that’s for certain.
@ Anonymous Alias:
@ MaxArt:
Maybe Cloud should be watching this.
There might be something special in 2 strips.
Love the expression and Sandra’s sneakiness.
It’s a nice competition they have.
@ Brijeka Vervix:
I like that Zoey has her supporters, even if thiss is Sandra’s comic. Designated antagonists need love too. 🙂
Just like the World Cup, this game needs the VAR technology… Voracious Acquatic Raccoon.
@ W in FL:
Sandra might not be as vulnerable as you think, a lot of bikinis like that aren’t actually tied, but sewn with a decorative ribbon. Sometimes the ribbon is also sewn on and can’t be untied. Other times it’s sewn to the bikini and can be tied/untied, but has no effect on the structural integrity of the bikini.
Two things:
1. Did that ball cross the line, umpire? Can we check the VAR?
2. Wouldn’t Zoey like being touched by a girl?
Persia wrote:
Tsk, tsk. Being touched by your archenemy is not a pleasant experience, ever if they’re the right gender. Just imagine somebody you don’t like, or just plain gross.
Or even, as Zoe would say, somebody really nerdy!
EEEEEHEHEHEHEHEHE
@ wyzwon:
My wife and I poke each other all the time. Walking past each other, riding in the car, whatever the slightest excuse du jour. Saying “Poke” is required.
Also peeing while swimming
Love the little finger changing the score
Beware, Sandra. You’ve unlocked Zoey’s Boss from. She now has 6 hands. If you think poking is fun, wait until 6-handed Zoey starts “poking” at you.
That smile, my friends, is not evil. It is not even E*V*I*L. It is full-blown demonic.
I’d make a refrence to the volleyball scene in Top Gun, but “Playing with the Boys” doesn’t really work here. What’s the lesbian equivalent of Kenny Loggins? Damn it, I’ve got nothing…
@ Breja:
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun?@ Breja:

In theory, Sandra’s bikini makes her more vulnerable than Zoey, even if the ribbons cannot be untied. In practice however, it seems like Zoey more than makes up for it by being extremely sensitive.
@ oledakaajel:
1. Set up one goal for a half-court game.
2. Drain the pool.
3. Play half-court basketball, only using the goal for a basket.
Larisa and Taylor just look like sisters…
I thought Zoey liked girls.
Hopefully not a replay of the ’56 Olympics match between Hungary and the Soviet Union

What does that got to do with anything? She doesn’t like Sandra. Do you think that a straight girl would, since she likes boys, be pleased if a boy she dislikes touches her?

A thought came to me now… Fire and Ice
I bet some people were thinking someone else entirely when they saw the word ‘dirty fouls’.
Firedome wrote:
No, they’re just playing like politicians. All politicians play dirty, it’s in their rulebook to do so. I’m not here to fire shots, I’m just positing that there were no clean hands, and here there shall not be either, if Zoey doesn’t microwave her revenge.
@ Persia:
@ ehrgeiz0:
Pretty sure that’s just Michelle
@ Ilmari:
Someone’s gotta do it
Own goal! 😀
Dear Oliver Knörzer, or Novil, or Powree, or whoever reads this, I love this webcomic and think it is really amazing, but some things have caught my notice – I like computer programming (which this webcomic mocks excessively), some of my role models are Steve Jobs and Elon Musk (both mocked during the divine comedy story arc), and there is a lawyer, an ex lawyer, and a wannabe lawyer in my immediate family (mocked in that comic about Pixar)
Please stop offending me and my family (keep the humour up though, I still love this comic)
-George
@ Kung Fu Cloud:
I don’t think that Novil is meaning any serious offence in joking about computer programming and lawyers and so on. Honestly, people make jokes about literally every profession in history. Like, geologists are renowned for licking rocks.
Perhaps you should just take it in stride and not let a simple joke that doesn’t hurt anyone ruin your day?
@ Kung Fu Cloud:
I’m a programmer myself. As such I love the coding jokes made in this webcomic.
One of my best friends is a lawyer. He would have a good laugh at the jokes made here, if he would read webcomics.
There is nothing offending about those jokes. Just some exxageration of how the world is seeing us, or the companies and their leaders depicted. In comparison to other popular jokes, or even real world news, the ones created by Novil and drawn by Powree are very tame and often actually well researched and intelligent.
To be able to laugh about yourself or your profession is not a crime.
Back on topic of the current strip…
I love how the reaction of Zoey is drawn when she is poked. And Sandras evil face afterwards. I can’t wait to see what other hilarities we will wittness until the contest is over.
