The last good achewood was the one with roast beef holding a drawing of a cock in front of his cock.

This I can agree with if you are setting the standard for good as "absolute classic"

For all this fussing nobody's pointed out the comma splice in the alt-text yet?
Oh Achewood, we hardly knew you, etc. etc. etc.

Phones don't really do the alt text thing, or I just don't know how to make it work.

The comic was ok but the blogs were spot on.

Home is a time, not a place, and your time with Achewood has likely ended. You will never appreciate it for what it is, but what you hoped it would be. Go on, you are free.

I have had only successes from the achewood store, though I heard there was a batch of pint glasses that was lovely once maybe?

One time on a lark about... six years ago... I bought the "cards for men" in the achewood store and doled them out to people. Within this particular bubble of fans it might seem funny, but all I remember now is my fiancee's dad reading "aaaaa moths" and looking more nonplussed than I've ever seen him since.

That's my story god bless.

Remember that week where Ray carried around a Ken doll he would randomly pants to keep himself grounded and everybody at random times would have their pants just fall down?
Or the whole deal with Téodor terrorizing Onstad with Risotto, culminating with having Philippe just writing the word risotto with rice.
Or Ray's pool gloves with the VR goggles.
Or Pat being a huge rear end in a top hat?

Man you know the blogs by themselves could've been all the Achewood we ever got and it would still have been fantastic.

I really love Onstad's personal blog as it became more autobiographical too

his journeys with father's bacon

his bad vacations

and also Onstad whenever he appears in philippe blogs

quote:

They showed me how to make Jelly Bellies!
There was a show on TV about how to make Jelly Belly jelly beans! I think I can even make them at home now! All you need is some sugar and a big spinny copper washing machine!

Okay, I got the ingredients. You actually need "gelatine," and I think that's what Jell-O is. You also need lots of sugar, to add to the washing machine a little bit over time! I'll go get it started. Our washing machine is just regular metal, I hope that doesn't make a difference.

Okay, I started the washing machine and poured in the Jell-O. Since the washing machine always tries to shoot out the water it's been using, I put a tennis ball and a bunch of tape over the hose where the water comes out. I also put some apples into the main washing tub, so the Jelly Bellies can be apple flavor. My favorite! (Almost.)

BAD PROJECT NEWS 9:21PM

Chris came into the laundry room to sniff and see if he had any underwear he could wear out to a nice dinner, and I guess he stepped in a lot of sticky, "fat" water. I think the machine overflowed? He said it ruined the feet of a lot of old furniture they have in the garage, and that he was also "super pissed-off" ["I am SUPER PISSED OFF! I AM SO PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW!!!"]. He even carefully took a wine bottle from the recycling, walked real slow out to the back yard, and then threw it as hard as he could against a soft hill of dirt. The wine bottle didn't break, so he breathed really loud out of his nose like Rocky and then went inside and sat in the bathroom for twenty-seven minutes. He turned magazine pages, not book pages. (Magazine pages crinkle more, book pages have a good soft sound.)

So much for making jelly beans at home. I have to spend the rest of the night wiping up the garage, and it is pretty crummy in there. I can't even have music, Chris said. (Music might make me happy.)
