What's the Achewood that goes something like "All teens want is to wear a dope hoodie while eating carbs"?

I think the line was "wearing a dope hoodie while receiving praise" but I can't find it.

I liked this strip but I feel like Cornelius wouldn't need an app to score.. he's got more game than any of them aside from Ray.

the strips are great but the Patreon UI sucks dick

Patreon really breaks down for anything that's not like a podcast that offers an RSS feed that you can plug into your app of choice. Onstad recently did an AMA through the comments but it only let you load a few comments at a time and you had to click to read every one of his response because replies are nested.

It's a shame too because the Achewood site for the older comics is very streamlined at this point with autoscrolling, searchable text, etc.

Yeah the Patreon UI was clearly not designed for this, and frankly I'm not a big fan of the multiple pay tiers for Achewood content. I just paid for the lowest tier and apparently missed at least one good drop.

But if feels dumb, it's like a form of gambling. -pays more- buzzer -no special content this month, Try again soon-

That's the whole purpose though? You pay less you get less. I don't know what you expected.

The "oh neat 50 bucks" panel may be one of best moments of the whole comic. On its face it's just a little funny gag, but if you have been following the strip, it's a perfect encapsulation of Ray and his unearned and otherworldly good fortune.

that and

"Look, here's the funny thing. I don't know you, yet I have hired a variety of men to create a certain sort of relationship with you. What? Oh. A death relationship."

really sum up the character. Ray is an absurd collection of lust and unearned wealth but he pays attention

To be fair, Beef was the one paying attention to the main pervs of the day. Ray just reacted appropriately, and then had a completely trashy orgasm.

Same genre as when Ray lands his skateboard with a crisp klik while Beef wipes out and exposes his nads trying to do the same trick.

Nah his junk flops out on the skateboard when he's just rattling down the stairs. You're probably thinking of when he lands on the crossbar of his crusty old bike and his bozack swells up like a little angry plum.
