The bit where Ray yells at Teodor for yammering on about "How Wikipedia is" and sarcastically telling him that he would just love to hear how Wikipedia is at that particular moment is hillarious.

I honestly don't remember what arc it is, but there's a strip where Teodor responds to Ray inviting him somewhere by saying "Is there sluts all up in? YOU KNOW I don't go anywhere unless there's sluts all up in", and then Ray gets mad. It became a running joke with me and my friends for a bit. Anybody got the strip?

My favorite has to be Mars...NEEDS...HUGGINS. Partly because it goes so well with the strip and makes a funny strip even funnier.

Tina being there for the Bathroom Party wasn't the only thing they changed, originally it was Teodor who got the poo poo slapped out of him by Ray during the mood whiskey bit.

"He said 'human being' the way old telegrams said STOP" is both one of my favourite Achewoodisms and one I thought would come in handy far more often than it actually has to date, i.e. not at all. Maybe that's a good thing in itself, though. :shobon:

I have used that expression to describe some of the oafs I went to High School with. It gets laughs.

The new strip isn't a homerun, but it's a solid double off the wall.

These flashbacks bring up an interesting question. I never really thought about the cats' hair situation, since they're cats and have fur. But Beef has hell of '80s hair in these strips, in addition to his fur. Does this mean that adult Beef does whatever is the Achewood cat equivalent of shaving his head? What about Ray? We saw Ray with a crew cut in the strip where he dressed up like a greaser to drink a glass of milk. I NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE CATS' RESPECTIVE HAIR SITUATIONS.

It has been established that Ray is "monk dimin'" hair-wise. Beff, I dunno.

He's kicked rear end for 20 years without developing a debilitating crack addiction before retreating into obvious-style Christianity. I speak of course, of Tony Hawk.

I always felt that Beef and Molly's relationship was more an illustration of what it's like when decent but damaged people find love with one another and try to make a go of it. There may be some similarities because of how much Chris relates to Beef, but ultimately, I don't think it's supposed to reflect his relationship with his ex-wife closely.

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.

I just imagined Teodor as noted MMA face eraser Fedor Emilianeko. Made even funnier by Teodor's comment about really really needing to hit something. Thanks for the laugh.

I've decided I will be happy with one more gently caress You Friday as a final Achewood. Like a standard, well done FYF and the final panel is just Ray saying "Hey this is the last Achewood ever. Thanks for reading and gently caress you!" This would give me closure.

I actually agree with this, despite feeling that the posters above me are probably right, you won't be seeing any strips any time soon, if at all.

Anyone ever read Spacemoose? It's pretty crude, but is also fairly clever at times.
It's sort of a proto-Achewood.

No it isn't. It's a conservative university student who thinks rape is hilarious trying really hard to piss off feminists and minorities with try-hard edgy humour.

That is definitely the Roast Beefest strip.

I feel like the most Roast Beef strip is the one where he forgets Valentine's Day and Teodor yells at him for it. Alternatively, the one where he ponders asking Molly to marry him...while floating down a stream.

Christ has this thread been dead for this long?

Save from the archives: I random comic'd into the Great Outdoor Fight, and there's one strip after the Jeeps come out where the alt-text, every single time, forces me to look up what "Steak Diane" is.

weirdly this just made me think of the "Spaghetti's Dad" strip
