I take solace in that as hosed up as my pen grip is, it will never be James Stokoe hosed up

That said, he draws astonishingly detailed Godzillas with his hosed up caveman grip and I can't draw a square with four straight sides so what do I know

Lyle's blog slowly goes from quasi-literate with no regard for grammar or syntax to insightful and articulate, and then snaps back to its usual vague literacy. This coincides with the arc in the strip where Lyle gets trapped in an Irish finishing school (or something like that..?) and detoxes against his will, then gets out again.

It's all in the blogs. The explanation of how he comes to be trapped at a school for girls, becomes staff in the kitchen, then escapes, sober as a Turk all the while. It only 'links' with the strip when we see everyone arrive at some party or another (not THE party, a posterior one), and Ray asls Lyle "how was Wales?" To which Lyle says "lemme know if I poo poo my pants. Excellent", completely back to 'normal'

I believe it was the party Ray threw based on how beautiful the 2000 Flushes made the color of his toilet water. An all-timer arc that gave us “shank em if you got em,” Ray Gets Sort of Stoned, and “your activities are so poorly conveyed.”

"I Dare."
I'm a big fan of "Here, put these shoes on and have legs like mine." and "Man you'd think it'd be easier to give bad news to Charlie Brown." Maybe even "He took you down with him like an Egyptian Emperor!". It perfectly nails every part of both a weird dream and a nostalgic look at what we have lost in time.

Oh poo poo, I also like when they invent Hip Hobbit.

God yeah that was a magical time. I remember even when GOF was first mentioned in a single line everybody IMMEDIATELY getting hype even with no idea of what it was or what the upcoming storyline would be, and it ended up being possibly the high watermark of arguably the greatest webcomic of all time.

In fact!

Dear ROAST BEEF,

I am deeply sorry that YOU HAD TO TALK ON THE PHONE WITH THE KKK. I know it was my fault. I never meant for that to happen. I never dreamed it could.

I am also sorry that YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T HIT TAQUERIA EL METATE and that OR THAT PLACE BY THE INTERSECTION THAT I CALL EL GLOPPO for a little while. I hope you feel the same way.

I mean this. I mean every word.

Chapter One.

It was very late at night. Candles lined the darkened room. Roast Beef lay back on the red satin bed, depression playing across his handsome features. Molly, nice, not my type, walked into the room wearing erotic lingerie with a subtle computer programming theme. She had to get back to I don't know, some crappy-assed waitress job in a few hours, but for now, the my pool house was the limits of their world.

"Wait," whispered Roast Beef, as he slyly produced a spicy Greek pepperoncini in vinegar. She moaned softly as he traced the outline of her nipple with it. Soon, she couldn't stand it any longer. She pulled his nothin' to write home about chest to hers and locked him in a passionate kiss. In the morning, he awoke before her, and lovingly prepared his special breakfast of those canned Hormel tamales with the little piece of paper in between each one.

Molly seductively slid a raunchy little tamale across her I haven't really noticed them lips, and soon...
