OHHHH SHIIIIIIT!

:)

I like the alt text too, keepin it real.

i love it

Congratulations to the happy couple.

EMOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The whole bit about beef getting married... maybe... has been grebt.

Aw thats sweet. Despite the Sting, lol.

My girlfriend send me this one in an email the other day and said something along the lines of it probably inspiring me to make a similar list regarding our relationship. SHOULD I BE AFRAID BROS?

I am actually a bit choked up! Glad it's finally happened.

Oh lord, I'm talking like this about a comic? I've been reading this too long!!

Clay, you should just reply "Why you even got to do a thing?" She'll leave you alone I'm sure...

TOMORROW: Lyle pukes so hard it makes a football go three feet

I stopped reading this after my computer died and I lost all of my bookmarks and forgot to add this again... and now I can't remember where I was! It's been like 6 months though... long way to go. I fucking LOVED the three-day fight though

marriage. the great indoor fight.

my fave thing from this whole marriage thing might be beef's fortune from chevy ford wo's:

"the lady is the mountain behind the tiny flaming fishing cabin of the man"

hi dere waht is awesome

totally sweet editorial portrait

Classy!

I fucking adore Achewood -- got hooked after reading The Great Outdoor Fight story last winter. Ray and Roast Beef in particular are unsettlingly real to me, for internet cartoon cats. LOVED the strip a few days ago where they found the guy who invented Comic Sans.

HE WANTS TO TASTE THE FUCKING CURB!

that is the best thing I have ever read about Australia.

hahaha

phillippe is the best

fact: the brain is the only organ that hates crime.

looking back a few weeks reveals that pat is totally taking on this gladdington's curse thing and basically looking just like his dad, simon. minus a little facial hair.

Also I like that his gay dad's name is Simon Reynolds

Holy shit why did I never notice this very important bit of information before

The guy who writes this strip is my friend's cousin. My friend has a T-shirt. He doesn't let being related to a celebrity go to his head.

Onstad is a celebrity?

Achewood may be the best thing in my life right now. <3<3<3 forever

I was, you know, kidding (about the celebrity thing. My friend really is related to him, though).

He's a celebrity to me, forever.

I have probably a half-dozen achewood shirts. I should buy more.

There was recently a interview with Onstad in the Onion AV Club and they printed the first publically-known photo of him. My first thought was that he resembled some past minor Achewood character, like he had anonymously drawn himself in. But I can't recall which character.

http://www.avclub.com/content/files/images/Chris-Onstad.article.jpg

He looks like a bro.

no way! bros don't have super circular heads, wear purple turtlenecks, rock Lennon glasses, and hang out in front of gothic architecture. his posture might be sending mixed signals but there ain't no way this guy is anything but a geek.

You should read his blogs, he complains about kids in much more expensive houses than his sleeping soundly knowing their parents invented the Google color scheme.

I love how little his cats are anthropomorphized, ie they have the weird gangly legs, long torso, and big thighs of a cat. Inventing the whole Underground thing to explain how they get to Subway is pretty genius, too.

Onstad looks like if Emeril and Spongebath had a third member of their cadre who was even more into the Tenmen than the others.

casuistry to thread

Clay has been pushing Achewood on me for years but it took this one to get me to finally read the whole thing last weekend. It is better in large doses. That particular strip is insanely great, however.

xpost no Clay to thread.

. My first thought was that he resembled some past minor Achewood character, like he had anonymously drawn himself in. But I can't recall which character.

He, uh, is a minor Achewood character!

His legs are, anyway.

haha i just tried to post that

Nanny scared the f out of me as a kid. Her socks were a pretty big factor. She dresses like a bag lady.

thanks to this thread for a wasted afternoon. :/

I love Achewood more and more and more and more...

Also some of Ray's finer moments collected here:

RAY MOTHERFUCKING SMUCKLES

I like the one where Nice Pete is telling a "joke" about a man who's been overcharged for dental treatment ram-raiding the surgery with his van and "completely destroying" everyone inside, only the punchline is him getting a carrier bag out and going "here are some of their hands"

Also, Judas Priest Friday

Had a huge sense of dread reading that Verge piece that he was suddenly going to declare his interest in NFTs or something, small mercies. Pouring so much cash into a novelty AI thing is just nuts though, what is he thinking.

Have to admit to being gutted to hear about the Penn Ward "Great Outdoor Fight" series that got scrapped, that surely had to've been better than the failed pilot from ages ago.
