EndOfTheWorld posted:A lot of people, rightly, love The Great Outdoor Fight but I think Philippe's trip to the transfer station has some of Onstad's best writing. Yessssss. Zell and Cory are some of Onstad's best characters and, in my opinion, definitely the best drawn.

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?

I want to get started on another one soon, something a little more complicated. I was thinking about the one from the previous poster where Philippe gets socked in the stomach for X-Mas.

I really, really want a copy of The Achewood Cookbook after reading up on it on that one blog where the guy walks through it. Is it up in the fanflow? Is there any way to beg/borrow/buy it from anyone?

Yeah I was pretty sure you were joking, but at this point I'll try anything. There are plenty of cookbooks out there, but aside from the obvious charm of Achewood, this one also has the benefit of knowing exactly what I want to be cooking.

I actually have a copy scanned up. I don't know what the legal situation on it is though. I mean you can't buy it anymore, so maybe it's okay? If it's all right with the mods I could toss it up on mediafire or something.

The cookbook was one of the self published things, so, I'm fairly sure no one would hit you with a cease and desist, but still, it's kind of wrong. It IS a great cookbook, though.

Is there a copyright notice in the front of it? Even if there isn't, unless it's some kind of copyleft, creative commons, open document, blah-de-blah, it's probably a bad idea. If there is a copyright, it'll expire 70 years after Onstad's death, so... just sit tight?

It says copyright Chris Onstad in the front so I guess it probably wouldn't be legal, but it really blows that there's no legitimate way for me to share the recipe for Pat's 12-step cookies because those are probably the best chocolate chip cookies I know how to make.

WoodrowSkillson posted:I think the fact that this is not something you can buy, plus the fact that in order to make a claim against SA, Onstad would have to admit to fraud, kinda protects SA from any legal issues. That's not really how it works. Like, at all. For one thing, the fraud and the breach of copyright are separate issues and would be handled separately in a court of law. And for another thing, there are plenty of books that are out of print and exist in limited quantities, but are still fully protected by copyright; you can't just bring a copy into Kinkos and walk away with ten new copies. Besides, is explicitly against the rules on SA, so Lowtax doesn't really have anything to worry about legally. The person who has to worry would be whoever scans and uploads the pages. Not only about being sued, but also about being banned from SA for an extra kick in the balls.I'm not trying to ruin your fun here, guys. I want a copy of the cookbook too.

Copyright only protects creative or expressive works. Factual information and methods, including recipes, are excluded. So, you can share the ingredients and process, but not in Onstad's exact words, which sort of takes some of the fun out of it.

In a non-copyright-breaking vein, here's an excerpt from it Onstad submitted as an article for Salon.com. Roast Beef takes us through how to make home fries, while Ray takes us through how to drink wine like a pro. Warning: this will only make you hate the fact you can't get your hands on a copy even more.

Dark Chicken posted:Nah, it just makes me hate pretty much everybody in the comments. Oh my god. I didn't even see those before. Let's look at some, so I can share my pain: some redneck posted:You DO buy wine in boxes. You buy it because if you buy a bottle you'll drink the whole bottle at one sitting and become an obnoxious drunk. You can keep a box of wine up to four, five months after opening. And it doesn't matter what color the wine is; you keep it cold so it doesn't get moldy. I'll bet this guy keeps his bottle of catsup out, and he has to scrape the crust off it every time he wants to use it - whenever he can afford something to eat. I literally only buy wine to cook with, and even I know that drinking it out of a box makes you look like a goddamn hobo. that kid from the "That's Racist" GIF posted:..."Waiters with dreadlocks" is a "SHORTCOMING"?!!! WTF?! Apparently this guy's never met a white guy with skanky dreads. someone insane posted:"You know how some people got perfect pitch, and always like wince and complain about whatever you play on your musical instrument, or point out how the music you listen to isn't actually "correct"? And they only listen to classical music? They are like the people who worry about wine matching food. Everyone hates them." Yes folks, the most maligned group on earth, the classical music fan. Those middle-aged-to-elderly white people have suffered so much discrimination and hatred... So yeah, a lot of people don't "get" Achewood.

I don't mean to white knight all the dreadlocked, lower-class, classical musician hoboes like those folks in the comments, but these days there are a few box wine labels that are pretty good, on par with your average bottled wine. Bota Box specifically, and I've heard good things about Black Box supposedly.

The thing with wine is really the same as the thing with mac vs PC or hetero vs homo or whatev. Do you enjoy it? Does it work for you? Then great, that's the best option for you. My wife and I are giant foodies and winos and there are a number of 'low-class' things like certain brands of boxed wine or broke-food recipes that we love, and (to borrow a Ray-ism) that's all right, because that's okay. Understanding why you dry-age some cuts of beef to get the best flavor out of them doesn't mean you can't really enjoy getting on the outside of a bowl of red beans and rice. Similarly, being enough of a wine snob to really understand why different varieties of wine are served in different shapes of glasses or even bottled in different shapes of bottles doesn't mean you are somehow not 'allowed' to think the cab-sav they sell in the Wine Cube at Target is pretty tasty. Really. Sidestep the whole argument of what you're SUPPOSED to like or not like and just enjoy what you like and don't bother with what you don't. Being a foodie is supposed to give you MORE options, not less.
