4.17 - Senior Thesis

I'm glad that my legacy circa like three years ago is the question I submitted about Bitty's thesis progress and his absolute certainty in response that I must be Alice Atley 😂

rarefiednight

I literally holed up in the one 24 hour Starbucks for three days (I think I slept maybe four or five hours total) to write up the final draft of my senior thesis. After I submitted it, I drove home (somehow) and slept for almost eighteen hours. People kept checking on me to make sure I was still alive. I FEEL THIS.

Bitty is looking more mature and more confident in the first picture.

Mine wasn't a graduation requirement though thank goodness, just if I wanted to graduate w/ honors for doing the honors program

Bitty is me when I had to write my senior thesis. I literally did my thesis defense during finals week of the semester I graduated haha

comedic GENIUS

I knew as soon as Bitty blessés their hearts, we were in for a RIDE and I was not disappointed. 😂

uhhuh_listenboi

I deffo procrastinated too much. My senior year I learned in order to get into grad school I couldn't just have a History major, I needed a social studies minor (going into Education). So I had to tack on a bunch of 100-200 level classes. Well, two of them I did by correspondence. And I literally procrastinated on the entire thing until AFTER I'D WALKED. Everyone was out partying and I spent 8 hours doing two entire classes worth of stuff. Got it in on the Monday after I graduated and thankfully, did get a transcript! So I feel Bitty here.

So many great things in this update. Did Chowder make that sharky flyer? I noticed it has the department head's approval. Nice touch. LOL! Everyone's using their best strategies on Bitty, who's still being wonderful and super dramatic. I'm most impressed with Jack's stealth. He knows Bitty so well. Too adorable!!!

Octavia Atlas

Truly, he should be an art major!

Ngozi

Bitty is utterly disgusted that anyone would make him? Turn in work? On time?? And has nothing to do with pie??? Never! XD

Ngozi

Thank you! Jack has had this theory for years!! As his boyfriend, he finally gets to test it out.

Ngozi

everything about this update is AMAZING. like love love love the humor with the boys at the haus!!! especially that poster- are you joking!!! also the sweet strictness of jack tricking bitty into doing it!!! 🥺so funny

These Bitty faces are a gift.

Meisterj

I finally gave up on a subset of my wedding thank you notes 10 years into our marriage.

Jenrose

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Yeah, I think I can guess who made the poster. And bless Jack - he knows his boy so well. They're gonna get that thesis out of Bitty one way or another!

I love all of this, but especially the scene in the kitchen XD (Also love that Jack know's exactly what to do to get Bitty to write, and i am not surprised that Bitty would write best via text)

Raylen

Reading this again, and laughing/loving it even more. Bitty's eyebrows of disgust in several of the panels are just *chef kiss*

I was slightly better than this but not much. My thesis involved interviews. I was finishing editing the night before it was due because typing transcripts takes far longer than anything in the world has a right to.

Christopher Chow: graphic design is my PASSION

As a person who was typing up my undergrad thesis as I was printing it out on the day it was due, I am definitely relating to this far more than I would like 🤣

I cracked up at "Your draft was a pie." and haven't stopped LMFAO this is amazing and the peak of comedy

Jack Zimmermann - greatest boyfriend, or greatest boyfriend?? Hilarious!!

Jack is an Actual Genius 😆😆😆 and I love everything about this update, especially the shark poster!

Sylvia Hunter

This has to be one of my favorites! Maybe because I'm relating to Bitty very hard right about now...

Genius move, Jack! Also pie should totally count for a draft of a thesis, how dare someone think otherwise! 😂 These last couple updates have been great! I’m excited to see what’s next! 😊❤️

What a sly boy, that Jack!

Karen Welborn

Brilliant! love it.

Amazing!!!!!!

That cut-eye that Bitty has in the 6th panel...

I think it would need to be two pies if you're looking at changes in Southern cooking, a before and after!

Oh my sides hurt so much from laughing. This boy! And he has such great friends! (But yes, a pie should count towards a draft)

Diana Williams

🤣🤣 the last part

I knew I was going to love this update ever since I saw the thumbnails for it months ago. But WOW. I didn't know it was possible to love an update THIS much! Every page is a masterpiece. The faces! The sharks! The non-drafts! The scheming! PERFECTION!!!

TD Keh

🤣 I love this so much!

That detail is gold!!

I love everyone in this update!

I feel Extremely Personally Judged.

omg BEST. UPDATE. EVER

Katie Kruger

I am in my office laughing so hard. After the "drama" of Madison, this is hilarious relief!!! Jack is TRICKYYYYYY BOYFRIEND. This means no blueberry jam Tater ;(

ok, so many incredible things as usual!! 1- chowder is just the sweetest, his poster made me laugh 2 - jack is so incredible, so attentive and helpful and a little trickster to boot 3 - dex is gonna get burnt pies for ate least a month after this debacle for CUTTING THE WIRES ON BITTY'S LOVE/FRIENDSHIP BDAY OVEN 4- they are all wonderful friends for helping bitty

Jack has been a Sneaky Boi™️ lately

I love this! I am still laughing. Especially Jack tricking Bitty. Perfect!

Vic or Vyxter

😍😍😂😂❤️❤️

Michele C (BookGeekGrrl)

Dex should be thanking those three boys, otherwise there would have been a murder in the Haus. I would honestly be surprised if, even if he's begrudgingly grateful for the assist, Bitty doesn't have some sort of revenge coming down on all their heads.

Sami Postma

THIS. IS THE BEST. I LOVE LITERALLY EVERY FREAKING THING ABOUT IT.

Amanda

Hahaha! I just saw the fine print on the flyer. Approved by Alice Atley.

Okay, Jack is the Best Boyfriend. Full stop. And the sharks on the poster? I snorted.

Jack is such a good honey! ❤️❤️❤️

Bree

Best. Comic. Ever.

Jack Zimmermann is a hero. So are the poor waffles who had to hold down Eric Bittle while Dex disables the oven.

Johanna Bowline

Jack has become very sneaky lately, but this time he is using his powers for good. ...I love it.

Sharks all over the poster? Hm I wonder who made that 😂 also the fact that it says it’s approved by Prof Atley is everything Jack tricking Bitty into writing his thesis is hilarious but also genuinely helpful for me (an almost-Bitty level procrastinator), talking things out with someone else and tricking yourself into doing your assignment might be the trick I’ve been waiting for 😂 if it works I’m crediting Jack! What a great update! It seems just goofy but it’s also sort of deep and I just love how you can do things like that! It will never stop impressing me. 💖

Aw, this is almost exactly how my thesis writing group tricked each other into writing -- we'd just ask questions or ask them to explain it, and then say, "Write that down."

Listen, I procrastinated for two years on a single 7 page paper for my final major related class, then talked my prof into changing my grade to include that so I didn’t have to go back for one class. I just didn’t have a hockey team to make me do it. Also, amazing as always. I love nursey and dex’s little “you people” aside, all the sharks on the poster, “approved by alice atley, jack casually sitting at dinner with the guys, getting 2500 words texted to him.

omg thats amazing!!!!

What a wonderful update! The facial expressions are hilarious and Jack is the BEST! <3

Jack is hands down the world’s best boyfriend

Jack Zimmerman is a hero!

Gendie

Bless Jack Zimmerman. I need my boyfriend to do this when I don’t want to write my papers lmao
