I just got to this strip from the "asleep style" one. Both have the classic "silent" second-to-last panel, but this one is even better. I find myself trying to recreate Ray's look myself, but I just don't have elbow pads anymore.

Especially when one considers the circumstances of Onan were entirely different.
Unless, of course, Ray was secretly having sex with his secret brother's wife unbeknownst to him. And then he pulled out.
O English, thy whip is thin but slicing.

It's hellaciously hard to get the silent penultimate panel right (See here for examples of it failing miserably) . The Fact that Onstad can do it well with regularity speaks very well of his abilities as a writer.

I feel like this arc is fairly underrated. There was something really subtle and nice, and also hell of synergestic as far as the blogs are concerned, with this entire arc. Not a standout like Cartilege Head or GOF, but really very good.
I might have to become a Waterbury-Arc Booster from here on out.

Weird thing is the Bible says nothing about Onan doing that; he just did not want to plant his seed in his dead brother's wife, because that would give his dead brother an heir, so he prematurely withdrew.
I automatically assume that this is the word you had to look up.

That is what Onan did, but it's pretty incidental. Onan's sin was disobeying a command from God to give his brother an heir, not merely wasting his seed.

Or about one day of a priest trying to make sure God said masturbation was wrong. Because that's obviously what God meant. I mean, duh. Any priest can tell you that masturbation is a sin. Just because that doesn't seem to have anything to do with what is written in the book doesn't mean that the bible is always contorted into whatever meaning most justifies and reassures the popular views!

I think that some slutty chick should get a tattoo of a bullseye target on the small of her back, that way when guys fuck her they can pull out and try to aim their semen for the bullseye.

The fact that he's a sleep-wanker seems to have distracted everyone from the fact that he's also a sleep walker . Imagine, if you will, stumbling around the Smuckles residence late at night after taking a leak, and discovering Ray wandering around aimlessly while jacking off .

...and then quickly replaced them durning panel 5.

Onan was the first patriarch who ever got his wank on, little man!
More like, to get is "pull-out" on. If you... if you want to get theological.
Oh, I do.
Are you a kinky boy, hrm? Do you like it... theologically?
The first fella to come on the ground.
Not quite, but he was punished for sorta gettin' it on in the garden. So a gardening glove is....a perfect butler solution?
Ray was sleep 'batin.
at least he wasn't cry 'batin
Or worse, blubberbatin'. A BLOO BLOO BLOO!
