do YOU love achewood, too?

Roast Beef is my worst case self and Ray is my idealized self.

v.much OTM

You need to read more/closer if all you get out of Phillipe is 'twee'

k, man i'll have to think really deeply about a stuffed toy baby otter in a web comic, maybe i'll write a thesis on it.

Philippe's fucking great. Yeah, a whole comic with nothing but Philippe would be a bit much, but as one character in an ensemble piece he's a fantastic alternative viewpoint, he's twee BUT HE'S FIVE ffs. I love Philippe.

nothing much can beat nice pete's description of murder

I'd have to say Lyle is my worst-case self. He looks like fun at first, but man, you don't want to be him.

Beef is... relatable, let's say.

I think (hope) I might grow up to be a little like Cornelius. Failing that, Ray. Failing that, Vlad.

Much as I love all the characters, I think I would get the waiting motorcycle, from the last panel of the strip in which Ray and Beef burn down the Great Outdoor Fight grounds, as a tattoo. It is a powerful symbol of hope.

cornelius = m. white/I DIED
philippe = tuomas
lyle = tombot
nice pete = k3rry
teodor = lj
molly = stevie nixed
t-t-t-todd = aaronhz
emeril = t''t/rjg
ray = hastings

I can live with that, actually. Who's Lie Bot?

max = todd btw :D

lie bot = n/a

vlad = HEY DERE

chucklebot = mr que

ray is the best character, hands down

OTM X a million. I bought his decision chart as a poster.

"Some mothers should not be turned out" - So true u_u

Roast Beef is my worst case self and Ray is my idealized self.

Replace RB with Kyle and then you're OTM

teodor = lj

roflroflrofl

little nephew = andi

I would actually say little nephew = jw tbh esp because of this:

hahahahahahaha, i just read that one earlier today as well!

i love phillippe

HOLY FUCK this might be my new favourite or something, the eighth panel is some sort of holy monument

Which ILXor is Pat?

Closeted and uptight? Wow. I can think of some but diplomacy demands that I don't name them...

"unforgivingly precise jay." Ray is wonderful with a turn of phrase.

the eighth panel is regularly my facebook profile picture

nightlife mingus = tracer hand

Bah LJ you are so not Rod Huggins.

omg cartilage head arc is next level

Cartilage head is when I went from being all "um hey non-internet friends I like this comic online maybe you'd like to see one of them no okay that's alright" to "FUCKIN' RIGHT ACHEWOOD I WILL FIGHT YOU."

that does it, i'm gonna link this shit on my f-book profile

Daring!

it is the pacifist equivalent of your damascene attitude upgrade

I'm ordering the two-poster set of cartilage head arc w/footnotes by Onstad, and probably some stickers.

^what dudes want for their birthday

A friend bought me the Ray gets stoned one linked upthread awhile back. It is framed and hung in the hallway. Most people who come by do not really understand what it is doing there.

me: Oh, I had a dream that St. Louis got nuked. So, y'know, keep an eye out.
s.: Will do.
me: Also a horrific dream that I met my ex in Portland, had a nice time, were going to get back together, but she decided not to, but wanted me to pretend we had, just to freak out her boyfriend.
s.: Well I'm glad your dreams are being nicer to you.
me: It was so bad that I realized I was dreaming but couldn't wake up, but was able to bargain with my subconscious to let me watch it take place in comic form.
me: Drawn by Chris Onstad.
s.: dude. that's just weird.

went from being all "um hey non-internet friends I like this comic online maybe you'd like to see one of them no okay that's alright" to "FUCKIN' RIGHT ACHEWOOD I WILL FIGHT YOU."

The other day my friend went on this insane rant about how he hates the farming industry which for all the world reminded me of Pat phoning up talk radio and shouting about how barbers should be paid less. But it would have been way too long and arcane to try and explain it so I just let him go on

IF THIS CAR'S A-ROCKIN', TWO BARBERS HAVE NO DOUBT BROKEN TO COMMIT LEWD ACTS ON EACH OTHER

hey, that's Todd.

I know him.

I know Todd.

oh man oh man have i ever been in those shoes before (yes)

Happy sixth birthday, Achewood. You are now older than Phillipe.

So true. HB AW!!

today's is genius, but also a little sad (ray dies! eventually...)

I like how Philippe's future is unceasingly bright, however.

Did Ray lose his ears in an accident, and get them replaced with robot ears?

ray's robot ears: class

I just dropped a three figure sum on merchandise o_0

(well a 2 figure sum on shirtz and a 2 figure sum on international postage)
