Whist is good it is a good start Roast Beef keep trying

Such a polite boy Roast Beef is.

whist is such a great game.

card games were the MMO's of the 18th century.

Nobody invented a new kind of food while playing World of Warcraft.

Well, nobody invented a new, marketable kind of food. I've been told tales of horrifying things, of LAN parties and creativity gone haywire from lack of use.

I'm simultaneously interested and horrified.

Much like Roast Beef.

Sandwiches using big pretzels as bread

i don't see the problem.

Soft Pretzel sandwiches are so damn good.

[IMGS OFF]

Oh man, I am imagining like sandwiching one of those KFC things with seperate pieces of chicken as buns between two big, extra salty pretzels just doused in gravy and melted cheese.

You'd have to eat it with a god damned spoon from a bowl but I would, if only once.

Oh goodness! That may indeed happen, but one time only.

Many things go awry while playing MMOs.

But what could go wrong with pretzel sandwiches?

It would work well with sandwiches made of slices, but for sloppy joes, tuna and other salads, I don't think it would work out.
On a side note, has anyone here ever had a bratwurst on a pretzel bun? It's damn good.

Snappingtons. Two pringles in duck-beak formation, filled with cheez-wiz, with half a slim jim in each one.

THEY ARE DELICIOUS.

We used to make SNAPPINGTONS. They were basically two pringles in the duck-bill formation, filled with EZ-Cheez and a miniature slim jim sticking out of each one

Bad for you? Yes. Delicious? HELL YES.

Also what the hell Fresco you made the same post 2 months ago below this one you fucking IDIOT.

Are you talking about sushi?

The sandwich, actually. John Montagu (more commonly known as the Earl of Sandwich) was an avid card player: he came up with the sandwich because he got hungry during a marathon card game and didn't want to leave the game to sit down with a knife and fork. So he invented a food he could hold in one hand while holding his cards in the other.

That is so weird, as I believe that sushi (or at least the wrapping of sticky rice in nori strips) was also created by card-players who didn't want to interrupt their games. What else has chronic gambling addiction done for our culinary culture, I wonder?

And now you are the person who is wrong.

One needs four people to play whist. Perchance Rost Beef is just being subtly kinky?

I suspect this may in fact be the first example of Roast Beef sassing Ray.

A comment left by cdtm was marked lame too many times and excluded. (marked lame by joeyramoney, Doc_Rostov, slalvation, libelandslander)

Arg, I didn't mean to chubby this.
What are you talking about, man? Ray gets his bone on all the time .
Can't hardly stop him.

debu t

The t is hella silent, dogg.

I actually got to use this line once. I was at a Renn Faire (you can start the lames now) and one of the girls working there asked me to try and woo her, so I pulled out this line. She was very confused...

That is because whist wasn't invented until the 18th century, well after the Renaissance.

Historical accuracy was more important to her than Boning.

It is so with all ladies at the Renn Faire.

Not true.

Oh man that sounds like [sing song voice/]somebody's got a story[sing song voice].

BBCODE!

Yeah... mr_lostman28 fucked up pretend BBCode . What the hell.

Pretend...? Well, now I'm depressed.

The last panel... Beef is just so earnest,,,

All hand on his heart.

haha playing whist was all phileas fogg fucking did. i remember that from my childhood, when i read those books.

Basically, Whist is a sexy game.

it is a main thing of ladies who, when asked their sexual orientation, reply "Lestat"


Oh darlin we don't use no HTML 'round these parts, you best learn yourself up

This strip caused me to look up 'whist.' Twice.

I WILL play whist with you, Roast Beef. So hard.

chubbied just for the user name.

He'd have any sensible lady-type cat at "May I entreat my lady," it don't matter you need four people for whist.

Roast Beef is a true gentleman.
