that's a good strip that deserves to exist and it wouldn't work if philippe wasn't saying something incredibly offensive

It's not even a phrase Onstad coined, it was someone's catch-phrase on Project Runway.

It's being said by a kid, I mean I'm not a tranny but it doesn't seem offensive to me. The fact that he doesn't understand how offensive it is is what makes it funny.

No you don't understand. It's offensive therefore it's bad and Philippe is literally Hitler. What I'm saying is erase Tumblr from this reality.

Not here, no, but that kind of reasoning is behind Onstad just popping in and apologizing for basically no reason, "just in case", which is kind of lovely.

I'm presuming he 'popped in' to say sorry because he wasn't previously aware of the extent of the offensiveness that the word he used in the comic had, which is what a decent person who doesn't actually want to perpetuate lovely attitudes via slurs does. Yes, the joke is that Phillipe is saying something he doesn't quite understand in a charmingly ham-fisted child kind of way, but the thing is that Onstad decided to use that phrasing initially, and then later realised it wasn't a terribly kind thing to have done unknowingly and wanted to apologise to anyone he offended in doing so. It's bizarre how frequently that's written off as kowtowing to crazy internet people when it's just a case of being considerate towards marginalised people.

Only on the Internet is apologizing for unknowingly using a slur seen as a personal defeat instead of simply not being an rear end in a top hat.

I am a transexual person and I thought the strip was mildly amusing and relatively harmless, but people on this site are so obtuse that they literally need a protracted explanation of why being apologetic for a mistake is not some conspiracy cooked up by Big Tumblr. If you have a problem, you may in fact be the guy saying "human being" the way old telegrams said STOP. Do you have a haircut? Are you pissing into an empty?

"Seven men pissing into empties, calling you human being. They cannot see you." is easily in my top five alt texts from the entire run. It's a very evocative image.

Just realized Achewood has existed for over a decade yet we've never seen Ray's eyes. Onstad, if you're listening, I want to see Ray without glasses the next time you decide on a whim to make Achewood strips.
