There's something of a dearth of Achewood t-shirts in the store at the moment. I'm thinking of buying one but I'm torn between Téodor Achewasser and Dude and Catastrophe. The rabbit ambulance one is right out because a news report about the death of a goth girl some months ago featured a picture of her wearing that very shirt. That's kind of tainted it for me.

Do you think the mouse would have actually floated there? Or would it go all red mouse spray into Philippe's face? The next plot point involves Todd trying the fan trick.

Beef is probably an old hand at this, most likely having done it for entertainment when he was still in Circumstances.

New strip!

Interesting...a new update format. Seems like we're getting half the strip but in half the time. Could be good for more regular updates I suppose.

On one hand, I'm really hyped for the potential Achewood show, on the other hand it makes this imagining of the Gothic tune I just made instantly redundant.

Yeesh, Chris has really lost control of Vlad's voice. He's gone from vaguely rustic yet cosmopolitan eastern European to full blown Borat. I did like Feodor's responses though.

iirc nolan had absolutely no idea philippe was a kid, he was just into extremely niche but otherwise harmless fetishes and philippe's circular caught his eye

On the other hand we do have this. Could be another Nolan the cop's referring to, but it seems unlikely.

I've been doing an archive binge, and I'm beginning to suspect that the reason people didn't like the High School arc is because it became almost immediately after this:

My favorite part of this storyline is nominating Tony Hawk as his VP.

Who has "kicked rear end for 20 years without having to return into obvious-style born again Christianity ".

~12 years now since that comic was published, and Tony Hawk is still kicking rear end. Also 'obvious-style Christianity' is one of my favourite achewoodisms.

Do we ever actually see Lyle in a fight that he wins, or is he literally all about posturing and bravado?

Due to some unfortunate road trip food choices, my Achewoodism for today was “instant rear end emesis”

Pimp skitters and sass gut are my favourite euphemisms for intestinal distress.

Can anyone help me find a strip where someone's calling someone else a 'house and paycheck hobo' or something along those lines. I think the insultee might have been Lyle, because that describes him perfectly.

Always makes me think of how solid a computer industry we had in the 70s and 80s. BBC Micro, Amstrad, Acorn, ZX Spectrum, and then somehow we spectacularly dropped the ball. They should never have stopped teaching BASIC in schools.
