Little grains of arborio rice on the bathroom counter spelling out R I S O T T O.

The R I S O T T O on the counter is funny enough, but the fact that Teodor evidently trusted an idiotic five year old to somehow prepare risotto is the real highlight of that arc.

I do appreciate the tiny perfect revenge of Beef fobbing off an invitation to a performance that Ray will absolutely hate, but which he knows nothing about and is honor-bound to accept because it's exclusive and fancy, given how often Ray has put Beef into excruciatingly awkward situations

Beef and Molly always seemed to waffle between happiness and unhappiness depending on how Beef was doing, but the end of the Teodore/Penny storyline in 2014 was definitely an "oof" moment there. Teodore had always been kind of a chump but it was rough to get a 60 second montage of his relationship slowly breaking down until they die.

Molly was very rarely unhappy, we just see her through a lens of Beef's bullshit most of the time. Honestly the problem with her was that Onstand wanted a love interest that would have a reason to stay with the kind of guy that has no coping mechanisms for life beyond "Add everything around me to my list of hated woes every time an inconvenience is noticed" and the best he could come up with is "I dunno, she just does." The greeting card arc is a great encapsulation, he finds his own unorthodox path to success, encounters one obstacle (women might hit on him) and scraps the whole project immediately, because "saying no to flight attendants" is too hard and both he and Ray instinctively understand he can't do it. theironjef fucked around with this message at 16:36 on Jan 1, 2023 |

One small touch I’ve always loved is that Ray and Teodor get definitive deaths and tombstones while Beef just disappears into the void

Really makes one wonder where the characters would end up if he were to come back to Achewood some day(particularly if time has passed offscreen since the comic ended back in 2016)

I've found that both "pimp skitters" and "sinner's rear end" get the intended point across pretty well. Same with "sass gut" honestly.
