Previously on Manly Guys Doing Manly Things, even MORE Commander backstory This time, is it possible to be TOO chill? 03/09/2014 - Non-violent Protest quote:So hey, some exciting announcements, I have given up hope of being able to competently run a kickstarter on my own going by how completely undewater I am with just comics and work alone, but I’m teaming up with the fine folks at Hiveworks who are offering their publishing and Kickstarter managerial services! MGDMT print and ebooks are going to be a reality! 03/16/2014 - But mental illness is so cool and enviable quote:I always felt like one of the big reasons Omar was almost unilaterally more poplar with fans of the Wire than McNulty (who was arguably the “main character” of the show) could be due to the fact that McNulty was sort of a pile of angry tortured male protagonist tropes that show up in every drama while Omar had a sense of humour and a full emotional spectrum and was still an undeniably badass dude on top of all that. You watch enough of this stuff and you kind of hit that point where you realize that the dude who owns his emotions and deals with his poo poo is probably more intimidating and fearless than the one who bottles it all up and wastes their energy trying to look like an unaffected coolguy. 03/23/2014 - We’re not done yet! quote:I keep cutting it down to the wire but it’s so I can actually get some progress happening on buttons! And Platinum Black! The MGDMT buttons will be for sale at TCAF, I’m planning to give the Platinum Black ones out as freebies.

Yakisoba bread is good, the commander's back story in MGDMT is also good.

Yeah, I was looking for deeper meanings, but honestly that is the best conclusion by far. That "beep" is really upsetting for reasons I can't quite understand. Hempuli posted:Sorry for the lack of rear end! I had to finish my thesis all of a sudden and that kind of took up my attention. I'll get to posting some good rear end tomorrow. I enjoyed this post I hope it leads to a foolish misunderstanding and some kind of escalating farce

Nondescript space future where the military is explicitly run by the marketing department is kind of dystopian but also hilarious, somehow works with the mostly absurd tone. It's very Venture Bros, that's it.

I’m not sure if this is what you mean, but this was published about three years before David Icke first wrote about lizard people controlling everything, so if she’s leaning in to the weird anti-Semitic conspiracy theory, she’s also a time traveler, and I don’t know which of those facts I’d find more distasteful

One of the most iconic pages of all time Fister Roboto posted:On the reread, I'm starting to realize that one of the overarching themes of the comic is that Maya is a huge loving idiot. I think it's just that Maya is too soft-hearted of a person. She had both ambition and ability but her lack of ruthlessness is both a weakness and also the reason why Meti saw her as a worthy student. Not really a spoiler, just conjecture about later in the comic: The trajectory of Maya's arc is something that was maybe inevitable and even if she had done things differently it wouldn't have necessarily made anything better. In fact, things happening as they did may have positioned everything into the best possible circumstance Chako definitely is true Royalty, though Kill Six Billion Demons Alt: Desecration quote:“From this hour forward the gates of the city will be barred to my kin. Do not underestimate them. Do not commune with them. Do not give them offerings, or give them bread or Ajash if they visit you disguised. Many of them have a sweet countenance and a honeyed tongue. They will say their wish is to be a teacher of men, to spread messages of peace. In an earlier age, this was true. Now dogs and worse have crept into their ranks. Madness has consumed them. Their only passion now is a lust for blood and power.” Alt: "It is said Sword Saint Meti had a great fondness for rats. Like dogs, they did not complain much, ate almost anything, and kept you warm at night." quote:Law of Blades Alt: They're back! quote:Private Devils Kit Walker has a new favorite as of 08:37 on May 5, 2023 |

Tenebrais posted:I assume this is referring to Sichuan peppercorns. Not sure why it would get translated as Japanese Pepper, but that's what fits best in that description of the dish. It seems that Japanese pepper is zanthoxylum piperitum, which is closely related to Sichuan pepper. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zanthoxylum_piperitum Maybe it's not a mistranslation and Chinese restaurants in Japan do use local pepper? I checked a dictionary and there are different words for each: sanshō (山椒) for Japanese pepper, Kashō (花椒) for Sichuan pepper. Anyway, maybe someone who knows more could weigh in.

Tree Bucket posted:I enjoyed this post "Oh no, Tree Bucket said that they appreciate my rear end! But they haven't seen me - maybe they've developed a misunderstanding of the size of my rear end based on my comments on this forum and are acting under a misapprehension about my rear end?" "Revealing that my rear end might not be like they expect would be very embarrassing, therefore the best course of action is to keep replying as if my rear end matched their expectation, but also add something negative to everything I say to them so that I drive them away and they never see the truth about my rear end." Thanks! But it's not like I appreciate you or anything...! Why did Hempuli behave like this? This could explain it:
