Go back and read the strip again, he uses phrases that use the word “salad” three times. There’s the eating rear end one, he threatens to tear pats throat out with salad tongs, and he refers to Lyle’s “salad days”

"Salad days" is an actual phrase in English.

True, but Ugly's point still stands, I never noticed. Might've just been Onstad extrapolating from 'salad tossing' I guess.

You would have to be an extraordinary badass to tear someone's throat out with salad tongs.

Same, except every time I buy and consume a grocery store rotisserie chicken. Sometimes when we’re eating it I just burst out laughing and my girlfriend will go “what, whAt! What is SO FUNNY!” and I just can’t explain it to her.

What happened to those anyway? Like, up until the early 90s, you weren't poo poo unless you had a tiny chainsaw to serve your turkey, but ever since then it's just been like "sharpen ur knife and learn how to break down a carcass u dingleberry"

There was a really weird Zach Parsons SA front page article from like 15+ years ago about a fat bald gross dude who finds like an alien in his backyard that looks like a football with a vagina and he, being lonely and gross, fucks it until the Men In Black show up to collect it. Afterwards he theorizes that maybe this is where Popes and geniuses come from, just alien super entities that require a thin veneer of Human DNA to get started and become the best of us.

Anyway that piece of writing really stuck with me and as I grew up I realized I slowly replaced the man in that story with Teodor.
