After reading the new strip (which owned Owned OWNED), I ended up clicking the random comic-link and found myself reading the arc where Philippe goes home.

I was gonna say, before I was distracted by stupid WORK this morning, that you could do exactly this with this strip, and it would just look like he was talking to the viewer, except for maybe panel 8. Bless y'all for reading my mind.

People hate in others what they despise about themselves

I on the other hand am moving in just the right direction as I head into the twilight years of young adulthood, and so, I love him. Nothing about the stalled out bear who's just sort of watching himself watching himself as his life passes him by is relatable or uncomfortable to me.

So he's going to stay and that's final.

Don't ditch Teodor. He's the mirror in which we see our lousy, bitchy and indolent nature. One time he hugged Molly before her wedding and all he could think of was loving her. He's wonderful garbage.

achewood is a celebration of the english language, and frequently taken to being entirely prose, so the usual barbs of "you don't need so many words in your comic to tell the joke" don't really apply to it.

and that is the best story about william sonoma writing sapphic erotica in the history of the written word.

I think I pointed this out in this thread several months ago, but Chuck Williams finally turned 100 and then died, I guess because he knew his legacy was secure thanks to Téodor's ineptitude

Lyle strips where you remove whoever he's talking to are pure gold. He turns from a rad drunk tiger to a loving psychopath drunk tiger who is also rad.

When they passed out body parts in the comics today, I got Cathy's nose and Dick Tracy's private parts.
You know that meme trend where if you take a tweet from Kanye West and put "Liz Lemon" in front of it, he sounds like Tracy Jordan?

The same applies to Ray if you put "Roast Beef" in front of the tweet.

"Roast Beef, I love everybody… only thing I don’t like is taxes.. me and taxes gone fight"

"Beef, Dating models I had to learn to like small dogs and cigarettes."

"Roast Beef, i hate when im on a flight & I wake up with a water bottle next 2 me like oh great now i gotta be responsible for this water bottle."

"Roast Beef! Shut the gently caress up and enjoy the greatness!"

The fact that Teodor has either been the primary character or the foil for four strips straight is further proof that Onstad still reads the thread.
