see i think beef was just making up stuff about the curse, as it turns out soon after that it's actually the camera that was making him look fat
his low self esteem means that he always thinks he looks bad in pictures

Those are fat creases aren't they? I recognize them from when I myself began to develop impressive-looking fissures down my cheeks as if I were finally sprouting a jaw line, but they turned out to be the impressions left by the steadily inflating pockets of fat reserves growing along both sides of my fuckin' face ('fuck's sake).

Thanks, I was wondering about that. The question is, what kind of thought process do you have to have to make up the idea of a camera that portrays certain people differently, then make a strip about it, while also having no explanation for it yet? That's some stone-cold Iron Balls right there.

Why is 2006 so damn heavy on the storylines and arcs ? And the daddy issues.
Not complaining! But I'm reading through the archives again and noting that spring/summer 2006 was unusually consistent in its rad-ness, all having cohesiveness.

Chubbied, in part for the avatar and in spite of the fact that you really ought to have at least a small inkling of who Brezhnev is. Not even name recognition? Really?
I'm not gonna bother telling you about him, because I'm certain you know what google is. And also, what if I got it wrong...in public.

I don't know, as diseases go it's a shit-ton more fun than cancer.
It's the only disease you can get yelled at for having, though.
"Goddamnit, Lyle; you're an alchoholic!"
"Goddammit, Lyle; you have lupus!"
Chubb-a-dubb for the first one to catch that reference.
Mitch Hedberg, stand-up special.

extra chub and a v-chub. discovered that excellent dead man only recently. holy crap what a genius.
seriously, right?
sincerely. that guy ruled so hard.
Welcome to New Jersey, where Talent Comes to Die.
Yeah, it's a damn shame that he REALLY liked heroin.
Yes. It's unfortunate he was punished for REALLY liking something. Punished by death. It seems somewhat unfair. I REALLY like Maltesers, but I can't imagine dying from it.
Pretty much everything you can really like can kill you; food, candy, drugs, sex, street racing. Then there's stuff like table top role playing and church, but is never truly living better than dying?
i had never heard of him, just checked out some of his stand up. nice work. funny as hell delivery.
I miss Mitch with much gusto. Rest in peice, you silly, wonderful man.
Weird, I thought of this immediately after reading mulisha7's post as well.
Then how come you drink so much at night?
When Lyle was photographed, he was not holding a bottle at all.
