This is my favorite example of RB's personal dialect. I'm one of the few people who doesn't consider him a favorite character, but sometimes he really is awesome.

I think they love him so much because he's the most relatable character to an internet full of computer nerds with confidence issues, which is not to say that he's representative of the Achewood readership, only that there is a sentimental attachment to him which does not exist for a rich hip hop loving dilettante or a psychotic West Virginian mass murderer.

Completely agree. I once told my friend that I love Roast Beef "because he reminds me of the most terrible, aching, pathetic parts of myself, brought to life-- but in a good way!"

Philippe is my favorite character probably because emotionally I am 5 years old. Also, I am an alive stuffed animal (otter).
Roast Beef is pretty cool though. Ironically, he reminds me of myself when I was younger.

W.C. Fields once showed Groucho Marx his attic, which was stocked with crates of whiskey. "Bill," said Groucho, "They repealed Prohibition."
Fields stared at Marx. "But it might come back!" he whispered.

I disagree. I am actually reading through Achewood for the first time, and I would say that 2002 or 2003 might be it's strongest years so far. 2004 has been a little weaker (but still awesome of course).

I like this trip because it would be utterly baffling out of context. Also, "ducats" has got to be one of the funniest things there has been hell of in the strip's entire run.
My friends and I once decided that Ducats sounds like the name of a cheap beer.
"You just put in a hard day at work. Relax with a frosty mug of Ducats!"
Dead for a Ducats!
"Dead for a Ducat" is the name of a band that several of my friends are in and for the briefest of moments I thought someone else who reads Achewood had heard of an obscure Chicago rock band before I remembered that whole Shakespeare thing.
Quite simply my favorite strip.
"Fine then here comes an amendment against frosty ones."
