“man if I had a goth girl I could just pee in her mouth instead of the bathroom” joke. Like that could even be funny to me I guess but this format just felt… Like they drew her on her knees first and invented a scenario around it after.

The focus of the comic is more on the male character with more panels showing his face and emphasizing his escalating reactions to being teased with various techniques (the squiggle line on the dialogue bubble in the third panel, the head turn line, the poses etc). What I like about it is how it depicts a relationship dynamic between them where he gets easily embarrassed, the goth girl doesn't, and she takes advantage of this to mess with him. It's obviously meant to be titillating but to me it does not seem like the sort of comic that has no substance other than that.
