Right, no one is overreacting. They just want to murder his children.

You are overreacting.

Do you also blame Rhianna because you're just such a big Chris Brown fan? No matter how much you respect the man as an artist, you can't insist that it's no big deal for other people to get screwed. I'm not one of those people, but it's ridiculous to claim that people shouldn't be mad about getting done over, no matter what the intent was.

Of course, whether he can regain people's trust in his ability to deliver stuff in return for their money is another issue.

People who haven't heard about the circumstances will buy more merch if it is available. Will he get enough new traffic? There's another question where you kind of just have to wait and see.

I always read that strip as Cornelius getting his trumpet out in private, because he is also so pumped he could play it with his cock.

I did too, but on further review he's clearly picking it up in one frame and laying it down in the next.

I liked the joke as we understood it. Maybe he played the trumpet with his cock and he's putting it away tenderly. Ah whatever, they're both good jokes. If Lyle said something about playing a trumpet with his cock and I had a trumpet I would see the wisdom in securing it.

I'm not so sure about Achewood being back, but I do know I have been rolling hard on 3 parts orange soda an 1 part vanilla vodka.

Actually I'm using Tang, but it still tastes like a Creamsicle.

Nah. This is Onstad giving Teodor something approaching a happy ending after like a decade of him being utterly unfulfilled. It would feel pretty appropriate for this to be the penultimate storyline to be honest.

Yeah she seems really blandly alternative nice so I think you might be on to something.

I showed it to quite a few people when it first came out and I was all excited, many of whom had never read the comic.

Responses ranged from boredom to courtesy chuckles.

Slightly better than the average person's reaction to the strip itself.

I love Achewood but I had zero percent success turning anyone on to it.

I really like that last comic. I like this new idea of Achewood coming out every few weeks, or whatever, when Onstad can be bothered and just being one-off strips instead of starting a bizarre storyline and abandoning it and leaving for a year and a half. you know?

How do you feel about the cookbook controversy? That's all anyone cares about.

the most supreme alt text? no, not at all. but a good one, that i wanted to share, since we're reflecting on old times, old crimes

The one about Barry instinctively going in to a squat due to fast blogging is pretty choice. And the one about how long it is OK for a Safeway roasted chicken to remain in a dude's car.

I always thought that bit where Lyle calls Ray out of the blue and says "I need a hundred dollars and can't tell you why," and Ray comes through with it, said a lot about why nobody's blown up at Ray.

Yeah, he's a pretty terrible friend, but I get the feeling a real-life guy like him would be genuinely difficult to hate. He picks up the check all the time without making it a thing, for example.
