You know, it occurred to me that Chuck Williams died (at age 100) back on December 5 and I don't think we ever did find out if he won the sapphic erotica contest and got to remain founder of Williams-Sonoma

I've always wondered if there is a pattern to the occasions where Roast Beef is wearing his tie-and-dress-shirt combo vs not wearing anything

By the way, are any of the previous eleven Achewood threads still out there anywhere? I tried a bunch of searches and archive dives and couldn't find anything.

Pat is my favorite character but that doesn't mean I'd hang out with him if he was a real guy.

What if he made you one of those really tempting promises he's known for, such as "E-mail me if you ever feel like doing something besides enjoying yourself!"?

For the amusement of those of you east of the Atlantic, here is how Stella Artois is marketed in the U.S.



It should be noted that Stella Artois wasn't widely introduced into the U.S. market until 2001, so it didn't have decades of baggage to overcome in branding itself here.

Ray always sounds in my head like a more grownup sounding Jason Mewes (like how Jason Mewes sounds nowadays vs. how he sounded in the 90s) because to me that's the voice of someone who was a sk8r d00d in the 80s and then grew up without really growing up

sure, it's the word equivalent of too much rich suet pudding, but compared to the 2016 era of drink-this-pint-of-sunflower-oil...

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

Hey, the dude has to deal with depression, breakup, and the fact that he's living in a world where saying things like "The only gay dude I'M marryin' is a dumb broad with a big veiny rack" is probably no longer disqualifying for a presidential campaign

I don't know why but my favorite "flashback to adolescence" Achewood was the one from eight years ago where Roast Beef accidentally grabs a Playgirl out of the skin-mag cabinet at Waldenbooks and the employee who catches him tries to be understanding about Beef's emerging homosexuality. I guess partly for the intensely awkward story and partly because one of the cover headlines on the Playgirl is Ten Things to Do.
