A word about the English language: the words for animals when they're alive come mostly from the Anglo-Saxon dialect spoken by the occupants of England between the 5th and 11th centuries, i.e. cu (cow), sow, ox; the words for animals when prepared as dishes come primarily from the tongue of the Norman invaders of 1066, i.e. boef (beef), veal, porc. Go ahead, read class dynamics into that. I find it fascinating.

you misspelled 'boeuf'.
also- sheep/mutton (mutton = french for sheep)
chicken/poultry (poulet = french for chicken)
on a semi-related note: 'chivalry' comes from the french 'cheval' which means 'horse'
to modern speakers of english, norman french should sound very familiar

I can't tell how much you are joking but either way I am going to STEP UP TO THE PLATE
the plate of pedantry
Kine and swine aren't really analogous, sadly! Kine comes from Old English cu , which meant "cow." In Old English, this was pluralized as cy . By the Middle English era, centuries later, and people had forgotten that the word ( kye now) was already a plural. So they pluralized it again! Which meant adding an n to the end, giving us kine .
Swine doesn't have a story like that to it. The n isn't a plural marker, in fact, it's been in the word not only since Old English, but even earlier, since Proto-Germanic.
I took a semester of historical linguistics and what did I get

The Latin for vagina is cunnus, hence cunnilingus. Although there is probable that the words are cognate it is not clear if cunt is derived from cunnus, or if they are paronyms from a proto-European root.

I mean, I can see how if you are a woman you would enjoy it greatly, but divorced from the idea of giving pleasure to someone you care about (or expect will respond with an appropriately gleeful degree of reciprocation) I do not see what is supposedly so good about licking someone's crotch.

It's not about selfishness, as I said I'm not against it by any means if it is pleasing someone and I think my girlfriend will certainly back me up on this. The issue is that, as an independent act, such as, for example, one might perform on a lady of the evening, I am not seeing what the excitement is. All watching porn and being "Dude, he is totally performing oral sex on her! That's what I'm fantasizing about, oh yeah!"
To each their own though. As long as it gets you off I don't much care how you do it.

Clinically speaking, cunnilingus can:
1) Moisten and prepare the vagina for penetration
2) Bring about an orgasm, further engorging (swelling up) the vagina walls, thus making for a tighter fit

"Alternate form cunny is attested from c.1720 but is certainly much earlier and forced a change in the pronunciation of coney (q.v.), but it was good for a pun while coney was still the common word for 'rabbit': 'A pox upon your Christian cockatrices! They cry, like poulterers' wives, "No money, no coney."'"
So if you want to know why "coney" is pronounced the way it is, uh, it's to avoid vulgar jokes. Also, cunnilingus should properly refer to the person performing the action (based on the Latin roots). So, tekende, being a cunnilingus is fun.

It begins with his need to go away from the keyboard briefly, but upon his return he suggests that in real life, a woman's opinion is key - but still less than a man's. He goes on to compare himself to psychoanalyist Saul Rosenblath, professor of Women's Studies at UCLA, and he decides that the comparison is, indeed, a fair one.

Many bras "lift and separate", so yes.
Matron-style bosoms are usually kept as one vast mass when supported. Maybe you were thinking of Grandma? Frankie Boyle has a joke covering this.

see, that is the strange thing. I have never seen a bra that seemed capable of further separating the breasts, and most breasts I've seen have been a fair enough length away from each other as is. Do any women have problems with having breasts too close together?
I thought the ultimate aim for bras was to create cleavage, but I hear "lift-and-separate" used as positive bra adcopy before, as well. I always consider it more in the style of retro breastfittings, wherein the bosom was made to look like a couple of sharp, highly angular, distinctly separated entities.
That style of brassiere seems to no longer exist in any capacity outside of non-working internet novelty purchases.

I think the novelty in Little Nephew's design is that his bosom harness treats breasts as two separate objects. I'm no specialist of bra history
I wish I was a bra history specialist
but, where was I, but it's like the main novelty of it, from the point of view of 1676 definitely, isn't it?

I meant, hence "does sunder." It can be said to do so because one bosom becomes two distinct, separate, delicate, breasts.

As a lifelong observer of cleavage, I can report that in a certain percentage of woman, perhaps as few as 10%, the breasts start from the same central spot, and there is pure cleavage. Then the variation begins and they get farther and farther apart. After a couple rounds of breast-feeding, this closing the cleavage gap thing really takes off. I think the youthful look of pert, separate breasts if what they were going for in the "lift and separate" days. Now every young thing seems to be into squeezing and pushing together of the breasts, thanks be to Allah for this eye party.

the last panel is grammatically correct. You can say "The bra does sunder slack bosoms." It's the same as saying "The bicycle provides transportation to people." If the sentence is referring to a single bicycle, then to provide transportation to multiple persons it would have to be a tandem bike. If you read the above sentence about bras to be referring to a single bra, then it would have to be a tandem bra that could be worn by multiple women at once in order to sunder each woman's bosom. (a tandem bra?) However in this "The bra" refers to bras in general, not a single bra, so no tandem bra is required to make the sentence grammatically correct.

Actually, while we're being dicks about terms, 'matron-style bosoms' is referring to any number of large single-unit breastices, sported by any number of matronly women.
Unless you were referring to Onstad's use of the term, which on reflection, is a tad more likely. In that case, what echindaboy said.

I agree on the basis that religion is not heping your country. ans also that social change could be more effective than outright gun prohibition policy. The only point i'm not mostly ok with is your stance on gun control. Social Changes will take years to happen (probably in the 2020's or 2030's, when most of the baby boomers will die off). Gun control would reduce gun violence in a marked way. We are all dumb one time or another, or frustrated, or sad, whatever. Bad judgement coupled with a gun never do good.

yeah I agree, but, damn, gun control just isn't going to happen in this country. Further, because of the various social problems and the bellicose nature of the culture here, I'd wager that gun control would have to be especially restrictive to really cut back on gun violence to the point that people were comfortable with the idea of not being allowed to own a gun for "self defense."
Yeah, this country is in for a long hard road to steer away from some of the problems it has created for it's self. I think that before the present society makes any headway in the decades to come, we will likely see a new form of social organization emerge via the internet. Just as changes as seemingly insignificant as the automobile, air conditioning, the suburb, and TV obliterated some social structures and created others, so too innovative network applications may reshape the infrastructure via which we exchange our thoughts and ideas and organize and collaborate. It seems that the status quo is hell bent on self-destruction, with the only silver lining being that at least the rest of the world is making progress while American society stagnates, so that perhaps once the rest of the world gets it together, they'll perhaps have America-Aid benefit concerts to help us out...
On a different subject it occurs to me that the phenomenon of kicking the dog - of subjugating a second-class less-than-human citizenry via pride and prejudice - the phenomenon of slavery, is indeed not dead in America, perhaps it is even enjoying a renaissance... Only, instead of it being blacks being oppressed by whites, (not that that phenomenon is by any means dead in America, but that's another story,) it is now more so the working class which is oppressed by the religious right wing. Oppression and religion, now that's the True definition of marriage.

Frankly, i doubt that it is dead anywhere. Up here i am annoyed due to another problem close to your's. law being modified and permission being given to individual of certain religion. I have nothing with religious people per se but when people invoke religious law to get advantages, it enrages me. For example, now Sick can bring their Kirpah ( religious knife) into school, nevermind the fact that knife are forbidden and so are religious object (except for them, du'h. Seriously it pains me when people use their personnal belief to influence or worst to gain advantages over the "common" folk.

Knowing how to spell 'Sikh' might help your argument sound less uninformed. But probably not.
Out of interest, are all religious signifiers and objects banned in your school - yarmulke, kofi, headscarves etc - or just visible ones, such as crucifix jewellery?
The few Sikhs I went to school with carried their knives as fairly small representations of the real thing, and never had them on display.
Not sure what you mean by 'advantages' - are you saying that if the shit hits the fan, the Sikh boys will already be tooled up and ready to inflict damage? Not sure whether it's actually (ahem) kosher to use a sacramental blade, one of the symbols of your very faith, to actually cut some fucker up.
Really, it seems about as likely as getting stabbed in the eye with a crucifix.

I mean that some Religious won't get ticket if they park on illegal hours since they can't move their car in religious holyday. That a YMCA gym had to put "frosted" glass since some religious group did not want to see women in "light" attire. They even tried to get the Charia implemented for musulman in Ontario. An Indouist guy wanted to sue the government since we don't allow his corpse to be burned on a pyre when he will die.
What enrages me is that only a few of them abuse the system but it still has very tangible result.

It is really just an example, i know they would not use the blade (they have to be sheated with a leather strip to keep them in the sheath). Still, they did make the government allow them in school, while object of prayer (like the crucifix) are forbidden. I don't care that it is a knife, i'm just cheezed that they get double standards due to their religion and can bypass the law due to it.

wolfensti, I am not following your line of reasoning re: the application of laws: re religion to the Sikhs I presume in England. Yes obviously there are reasons pro and con any accommodation on any pretext... It works like this: A society starts with an intention (e.g. not unduly interfering with individual's practice of religion, correcting racial inequality, or what have you.) That intention has to be codified into guidelines and rules (aka laws) in order that the institutions of society may align their actions with the intention... There are all manner of complications that arise in the structure and functioning of institutions and in the myriad arrangements of groups and individuals and customs and habits and sometimes I just wind up driving at 200 kmh down the freeway with no hands on the handlebars in a rainstorm because, damnit, I just feel like it that day... everyone's different every day. So... as society-wide intention trickles down from less and less abstract levels into levels of tangibility and concreteness, you do get some contradictions and unexpected results and sometimes even unwanted or even ludicrous results... Many is the time, nonetheless, that we must put up with these ludicrous results, because the system of law and due process, as flawed as it is, is the only system we have for translating, as a society, our intentions into results. The wonderful thing about this system is that it doesn't really care if you don't approve of the results, or even if 99% of the population doesn't approve of the results. Seriously, does anyone approve when an obviously guilty murderer is set free because the Police and/or prosecutors violated this persons due process rights? Of course not, however, a greater purpose is served by setting this accused individual free, and that purpose is the ensuring of the integrity of the system of due process, and the ensuring that the institutions of society might afford all individuals due process in the future. So, I'm saying, while the idea of allowing one person to carry this symbol to school but meanwhile not allowing someone else to carry another symbol to school might seem ridiculous, hey, that's just the result of the system you have in place... Arguments that the results of the system are flawed really are not the same thing, and are not nearly as useful nor as compelling as arguments that the system it's self may be flawed.

When you use phrases like "eradicating the virus of religion" and "if people could think coherently," not only do you sound like Stalin, you are proving yourself just as small-minded and regressive as the billions of people whose existence you are apparently opposed to. America isn't going to get better when one side wins, it's going to get better when the hyper-religious maniacs (like the televangelists) and the hyper-atheistic maniacs (like you) realize that the faithful and the non-faithful who actually got along with each other were right all along. Guess what, dude? Religion's not going anywhere, no matter how much you want it to, so if you really want to make this country less violent, you're gonna have to find some common ground. Yes, with the scary Jesus people.

I think the idea of 'hyper-atheistic maniacs' is a fake one, rather like trying to equate religious faith/irrationality with an adherence to or belief in science. Science is not a religion, and anyone who thinks it is doesn't understand how science works.
There are pain-in-the-ass atheists, but they're usually loud, ignorant kids who would be just as annoying whatever their creed. Dicks are everywhere and refusing to believe in sky-daddy does not prevent cockishness to strangers.
The point is, there are no holy books which allow or exhort atheists to 'over-rule' or disregard human laws. Atheists who do so (not sure if any actually exist) do so on their own.
I'll settle for not banning religion and adherence to faith by act of law if we can make a similar agreement that any proposed law change (or refusal to change unjust laws) is rendered instantly irrelevant if the only justification is found in one of these 'holy books' or because 'god says so'.
That would help us all get along much better, IMO.

Your principle is sound, religion is not science. However, there are such things as 'hyper atheistic maniacs.' I happen to work with one. He confronts everyone in the office with anti-religous speeches, but, and this happens in the religious world too, has no proof for what he says. He has not bothered to do his reading, research, nor does he have any life experience. In short, he takes it ON FAITH that there is no God, because his father didn't believe in God. He is equally as annoying as any religious zealot.

Oh happy horse shit!!! Religion is nothing but a very clever mind control strategy. Religious "leaders" take one of humanity's most primal fears, fear of the unknowable, death, and play it like a fucking fiddle to mentally paralyze the flock, program them to behave in mechanistic manners, not question any of the dogma, and MOST HEINOUSLY WORST OF ALL, abuse their children by committing the same crimes upon them that are done to the parents. Please fuck that shit!
What? I should be "tolerant" as dumb ass Muslims stone rape victims? FUCK THAT SHIT!
What's that you say?? You think my using the example of sharia law is somehow cherry picking. No, it's just an example of the something that even liberal dumbasses can understand is wrong. But all the rest of it is just as wrong, just not as violent. And by "it", I don't mean Muslim, I mean all of them. All. Anything that requires "faith" in order to practice is evil shit, and sane people need to speak up and say so. FUCK THAT SHIT!

Man, but I wish I could get paid in cod.
Fun Fact: The codpiece is named for the Middle English term "cod" which means "scrotum". This evolved due to popular discussion that a man who owned a significant amount of cod was seen as powerful and virile (e.g. "Dude has got wicked cod!"). This is because, as all know, cod is delicious.

I always thought that when I finally do end up stuck back in time, it would be hard to profit from my knowledge of the "future" because I don't actually how anything works or how I would go about recreating it.
The bra thing has given me a new direction. I no longer have to carry a trunk full of reference books in case I get to take my car, ala Army of Darkness.

I have solved this problem by developing a time travel password with close friends. This way they will be certain if I ever need to send someone back from the future or if I should happen to be dealing with an evil twin, shapeshifter, or robot double. I also have a private password known only to myself for similar situations.
You've just gotta be prepared.

That is Wagstaff's password, not mine.
The greater problem is that the password system really doesn't work for time travel that well. If someone travels into the past before the password was agreed upon it means nothing, if they travel to a period after that time then there is no reason why it proves they are from another time as opposed to simply screwing with you.
It is still a good idea to have a personal password though.

Yeah, I thought her family came from the afterlife to the wedding, but apparently they came from History.

This is the most basic thing ever. Their stage coach did the Terminator flickery light electrick thing when it arrived.
If that's the case, why'd they have to *KOODGE* Japan Man? Couldn't he have just hopped on the magical stagecoach with them?
I'm not trying to pick nits here, but I am genuinely confused. Regardless, this is still infinitely better than Heroes' handling of time travel.
Ah, true...
...Maybe it was just a tranquiliser?
I like the idea of a tranquilizer that goes KOODGE instead of thwpp.
But if they are in History, where do they get the juice to power the "Lighting Box"?
Electricity, or 'Daffrey's Jigging Liquor' was commonly produced in early modern Wales by means of a 'joggle box', a small wooden contraption that held a vole and stag beetle locked in combat. The agitation of the vole caused its fur to rub against the amber lining of its enclosure, conferring a negative charge to the device which could be used to power household devices or electrocute shrewish women.
I'm with biznart - surely it's gotta be the afterlife.
Death in Acheworld is a fairly ambiguous and reversible state, so this is likely some part of Heaven where C.17th dead folks get to toil worthily for all eternity, should they choose to do so. Molly presumably chose to move to one of the more swanky, modern, apartment-based bits of Heaven, so as to develop her programming skills.
Maybe Heaven also has an Underground, where the Puritans, Quakers and Calvinists can lead suitably dour lives?
Or it could be that Wales just has a more rustic, traditional Heaven than the US, one where it's always 1676. This is also feasible.
Anyway, whether it's Heaven or Wales, all ideas and inventions become a business plan by the end of the strip.
I've come to realize that nearly all of Onstad's latter-day strips have either been about A) food or B) figuring out how to milk as much money as possible out of one idea. Didn't someone once say that the mark of a great artist is being able to write about something other than your own immediate experiences?
No.
What makes a great writer is if he writes well. You could have a webcomic based entirely on food, and if you are inventive enough with it, it won't get old fast. Onstad has been having rough period lately, but he still has it. A lot are about these things, but it's still fresh enough that it doesn't become tiresome . .yet. For me, at least.
what makes a good writer is if he writes good, you mean.
Yes, indeed.
