- Sandra: I’m not a worse kisser than Zoey!
- Larisa: Just a second…
- Larisa: I know it’s a hard pill to swallow, but have a look at these stats.
- Sandra: My tongue technique is not 3.9 points worse than Zoey’s!
- Taylor: Is the video replay necessary?
- Larisa: I don’t think so.

Taylor is such a great character, love that we’re seeing more of her!
That video replay may just be necessary, just not for Sandra.
Yeah, don’t the viewers have some say in this? And just what does Taylor know about such things? Does Larissa run a Smooching U? Does she have a rival for the attention of every boy in the school? These are serious questions that need answering.
*ahem* THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE, AND THEY SPELL DISASTER FOR YOU AT SACRIFICE! Thank you
Larissa is going to be the world’s most professional succubus.

So there we have it. Tay-Tay agrees with Larisa. Zoey is winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man you nerd-sniped me there for a bit. I was already trying to come up with an objective scoring system in my head.
I just find it hilarious that they’re even having this conversation. I’d like to know how to quantify a kiss.

Especially without being personally involved with it! 😉
So do I. In any event, I believe Taylor has nailed down the Cold Brutality award for 2018.
@ Rizzdizz:
Yuh beat me to it! I like Taylor too. She’s quietly pretty, and has such a neat, quiet, dead-pan delivery of funny lines. 🙂
I am legit dying

She’s a succubus-in-training. She’s probably the most qualified one there to judge this, unless maybe Zoey kisses Cloud and then Sandra would kill him anyway.
@ Frank:
The kiss value is proportional to the length in time, the inverse of the distance between the two bodies, the surface area of the accompanying hug, the force of said hug, the surface area of the kiss itself and the force of suction exerted by the kiss. Multiplying these together produces a rough estimate of kiss value in units of kgs/m.
i.e. K = (L*Hsa*Hf*k*Succ)/D
As you can see, Sandra’s Hsa was much smaller than Zoey’s and her D was larger (don’t misinterpret this please) her K was thus smaller than Zoey’s given that the other variables are constant. However, Larisa says that Zoey’s tongue action was better than Sandra’s which implies that Zoey’s k and Succ were larger, further extending Zoey’s lead in K.
Maths has uses kids!
Hey wait a minute, this wasn’t a fair challenge at all! (sure Zoey more or less hates Larisa but at least she actually likes women)
Maybe she could get some pointers from Zoey.
Enthusiasm counts for a LOT in this particular contest. Sandra just isn’t into it, Zoey is.
Of course the video replay is necessary. We want to see it… I mean we need to see it to be sure.
I forget, was there even a prize for this competition beyond declaring a winner between the two?
Tongue technique? I don’t quite believe that Sandra would have used her tongue on Larisa at all. On the other hand, if she really wanted to win this contest she could have done it… but then she surely would have 3.9 points less than Zoey in that technique on a girl, being embarrassed and uncomfortable about it.

I figure the two factors pretty much cancel out, leaving a more or less even challenge.
@ Mechwarrior:
Per strip 996, the winner gets to win. Both contestants were satisfied with this. Oh, and there was a mention of a half eaten cookie, although I’m guessing Woo has probably eaten it by now.
Taylor is definitely a keeper.
Also, I hope Zoey kissing Larisa won’t be spelling trouble for Landon’s relatioship.
Oh, how I wonder what Michelle felt when she saw Zoey kissing Larisa… Did she see a “really gay lesbo” or did she suddenly realize she was jealous…? 🙂
Why not settle it with smooch-wrestling? One-two-three-four! I declare a tongue war!
Taylor really is a great character. Which reminds me: I would still like to know what she did in the physics room during the election arc.
If Sandra and Zoey were to kiss, I am sure Sandra would agree with the points given and concede gracefully.
Just 3.9 points? I’m surprised it’s not worse.

It depends. Assuming you are a straight guy, try to imagine you were in the situation to display your kissing technique in a contest like that, what would be more awkward to you – kissing your best male buddy who knows perfectly well that you are not gay and whom you expect just to objectively (or maybe even favorably) judge your technique and not to tease you in any way about it (especially since it would backfire on him because he was the one who proposed that contest) or a physically attractive girl you hate as a person and whom you expect to totally tease you about it and maybe tell everyone that you were a horribly lame kisser.
Taylor is lit!
Will the rest of this arc be Sandra harping on her kissing prowess vs Zoey’s? Sandra and Zoey kissing to see if Larissa was just messing with her? or Sandra vowing to practice more with Cloud?
In the much more natural binary system, today’s strip would be numbered 1111111111
This only means that Zoey is better at kissing girls than Sandra. This doesn’t mean that Zoey is a worse kisser overall. This could also mean that Zoey leans more towards lesbianism than Sandra. That’s points for Sandra.
@ JonesNate:
Oops, I mistyped. I meant to say, “This doesn’t mean that Sandra is a worse kisser overall.” (Emphasis added.)
Sorry Sandra, but your very first kiss with a girl is not going to compare with someone who already likes girl as her default setting.
…blame Cloud…
what about the boyfriend reaction score?
On the other hand, Sandra has had a lot of practice smooching with Cloud, whereas Zoey just complained about having no one to smooch with. So I should say that Zoey is a natural. And it looks as if she knows it. Good for her! 🙂
@ Brijeka Vervix:
I love this post. 🙂 They should post it in high school math classrooms! 😉
Oh Sandra, leave it be! They know what they’re doing and you don’t know what you’re talking about.
@ Drakkenmensch:
Actually, this was not her first kiss with a girl, in fact, officially her first kiss was with Larisa.
@ Iron Ed:
Thanks 🙂 I’m always trying to make mathematics more interesting for my students (admittedly, this is sometimes very difficult, especially when the stuff they’re learning is so foundational that it is very difficult to come up with real life uses based solely upon that one topic)
I remember back when I used to like Larisa. Those were fun times.
No, I’m serious. She’s being mean to her best friend and, even worse, she kissed someone else right in front of her boyfriend. Neither Sandra nor Landon should take it. In the immortal words of Bugs Bunny- “this means war”!
@ Breja:
Was that when she was mean to Zoey in such ways as force feeding her her homework and sabotaging her family’s heating instead? I think that’s a little worse than simply stating the obvious that Zoey’s kiss was better than Sandra’s or kissing girls in front of Landon.
@ oledakaajel:
Oh my, you’re right!
http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2011/07/11/0289-moment-kisser/
Seven years ago, totally forgot that. You know, I’m thinking Larissa is scheming to sneakily add points to Sandra’s Kinsey score!
@ Mike:
Maybe it was her reluctance to go full throttle on the tongue that cost her the win.
@ Asrial:
I’m guessing here but I think the possiblity of a threesome trumps any jealousy factor by a rather large portion. Plus Landon seems pretty tolerant of just about any Larisa high jinks.
And exactly how much kissing has Larissa been doing to get such a precise measuring system for the quality of kisses? Especially at her age?
@ Mysterious Dark Lord v3.2:
Do you REALLY need to ask that question?
