As has been proven, Onstad would hit savant genius levels of comedy with arguing characters.

I know he was never a major character but I seem to remember more. Little Nephew's blog is pretty much my favorite thing ever

At what point should we stop being surprised that Achewood keeps updating? My money would be on never if I hadn't spent it on 365 pairs of white men's briefs, size L.

A good ending is crispy stellas by the pool and a joke with Todd. Do we get treated to Lyle dying next as now alchoholism has consequences?

I think it is rad for Ray and Lyle and Todd to be eternal cartoon alcoholics that no not suffer consequences because they are cartoons. Can't Ray jsut die from it and come back anyway?

There's something really funny about pouring Ketel One into a Big Gulp cup. Also alcoholism is indeed rad, come join the club.

It's rad until about two hours into your shift the next day. Of course this is coming from a Wisconsinite. The rest of the country's definition of a drinking problem is what we like to consider pre-gaming.

There was a lot of buildup, and it's still building up. Gotta trust that there will be a payoff.

I think the "payoff" will be Onstand quietly slinking away and completely abandoning the comic again after he gets his dream job as a food personality on the Food Network, hosting some dumbass new show like "King of Cronuts" or "Japatalian: A World of Noodles".

My favorite part of this thread is how this exact sentiment gets mentioned every time Onstad returns and then the flood of mea culpas after the glorious payoff that is no doubt coming.
