You can do whatever you want in life.


gently caress, you know, I loooooove to complain about the irregular schedule, but gently caress me if this strip didn't make me laugh like classic Achewood always did. I'm sorry I've been a virtual jerk to you, Mr. Onstad. I'm going to sign back up for another month of Achewood subscriber love, right this instant. I hope you use the money for some drat fine food.

Phillipe should really do some stretches for that stiff neck of his. He's got the spine of an 80 year old.

I love Phillipe's assessment of the items in the Sharper Image catalog. Even a 5-year-old can recognize that it's all wholly unnecessary crap.

A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works.

I was kind of wondering if they were mutually exclusive. Also, at the $1.80 price increase from the false chili bowl, I kind of thought that the chili would just come from a can--like re-branded Hormel. I mean, you have to ship these items, right?

I love how this comic manages to conjure up such a soundscape out of those last four panels at the restaurant. It puts me in mind of that scene in The Godfather...

Correct. If you click over to the assetbar side, the title of the strip confirms this.

What, you haven't heard "firing on one cylinder" before? Even I've heard that one out here in South Dakota, where we know nothing of many of the references Onstad makes.

It occurs to me that Ray's house is unique in all of fiction for being a place where you could destroy random objects and find vast sums of cash inside without it being unusual.

His savings account is all Bank of Hyrule. He doesn't pay his gardener and has forgotten to do so; the gardener simply operates on the assumption that he will find a six hundo in a baggie under the rose bushes and that assumption is often correct.

Look up, if you can, the children's book series about an elephant called Uncle by J.P. Martin. He lives in a giant rambling house called Homeward that he inherited, and spends most of his time exploring it with the help of a monkey who he pays in typewriters. Occasionally they are attacked by a man called Beaver Hateman and Uncle kicks him in the rear end so hard he flies through the air.
It's a fine entry in the long tradition of absolutely barking mad English children's literature.
