paradoxGentleman posted:I maintain that if it vibrates it's not a dildo but a vibrator *ahem* You can have a phallic object that does not vibrate. That is a Dildo You can have an object that is NOT a phallic object, but produces vibrations. That is a Vibrator. IF you have a phallic object that also produces vibrations,you have a "Vibrating Dildo", and it is acceptable to refer to it by either term. and Given Lyles track record, T is right to be worried about Lyle just leaving it laying around. Someone would see it, or Phillpe would play lightsabre with it, and he would have to have an awkward conversation with Someone , at least.

Phillippe would tell his mom about it and then she’d have him sent away

Nessus posted:The gray cat is of the Internet, in all its sins. Way back in the 90s and early aughts it was still a conservative outlet but it was also notorious for getting scoops before they went to press anywhere else and having all kinds of insider gossip so I guess it kind of makes sense that Roast Beef would be into it. He was abreast of all the main perverts and all that. He's a guy who keeps his ear to the ground and I dunno if Onstad thought the particular significance of the Drudge Report through any further than that.

It's a puzzle that's framed as being much more esoteric than it is, what with all the stuff about the works of Pliny the Elder. The joke is that Ray completely buys that it's difficult. It's a dunk both on MENSA for mostly consisting of expensive flattery, and Ray for falling for it.

Rutabagas rule. They look like (and are) a mix between turnips and cabbage but they taste like if potatoes went berserk. Really savory and earthy. If you get one you can just cut it up and then boil and mash it like you'd made mashed potatoes.

As it aired almost literally a year ago to the day, you all might have already heard of it, but there's a very good four-part podcast called "My Year in Mensa" which is exactly what it sounds like: someone joins Mensa for a year and relates her experiences with the group and its members. It goes to a lot of "I'm surprised, but not surprised surprised" places. Anyone who's ever found Mensa to be corny and absurd (in exactly the sort of way Achewood did) ought to check it out.

It really makes Mensa out to be like sitting on a tank labeled YALE, it’s really good.

Android Blues posted:He's not a figure of admiration, but he avoids being a totally scathing caricature, like the strip's other portraits of burnouts living awful lives, because he's a tough biker guy who likes to drink and fight, and Achewood has a consistent soft spot for that sort of masculinity. It's more of a personal interpretation, but I've always felt that Lyle was the physical manifestation of all the good Less Than Jake albums, at least in content if not genre.

I always read the Rutabaga thing as Mensa presenting all this flowery language for their dipshit puzzle and Ray reading none of it at all, just signing his name and enclosing a check, because he doesn't find the extra money to be worth his time

There are several blog posts about Cornelius scamming Ray at pool that are very instructive.

Man! I just realized, you know another female character who is only defined by her relationship with male characters? Ray's mother! Even her "choose your own adventure" decision graph thingie is 100% focused on Ray.
