This is my whole complaint, really. The fact that its usually Ray. I may get lamed for this, but I'm starting to feel that Ray is "getting things done" and "paying attention" far too much. Every time something goes wrong, woop! There's Ray. I think this comic would be much more interesting if it had been Bensington or Showbiz or, as Drskradley wants, The Boffin. Anyone, really, except Ray.

The other scenarios really make no sense though. Who's more likely to bail Roast Beef out of a rough situation:
His best friend with a lot of money?
Or his deadbeat brother.
Or a man who was hypnotized into being a shirtless dancer?
Or a computer program?
Really, Ray is the only one who could have done this.

Exactly. Ray didn't have to be there at all. Showbiz could have blackmailed Beef into giving him money. Or Bensington might have broken his hypnosis and wants to use Beef to get to Ray. Or The Boffin could do...something. Who knows. Point is, Ray is becoming far too prevalent in this comic as a whole. Sure, he's a good character, but there can be too much of a good thing. I kind of want Ray to go on a three month vacation somewhere.
What I'd like to see is a story arc in which Chucklebot falls in love with Pat and employs Nice Pete to help Pat break up with Rod Huggins. We haven't seen any of the robots in ages, let alone Pat and Nice Pete. Ray needs a time-out.

Or maybe Onstad beefed up Beef a bit for more than one reason. It seems like good way of showing his new confidence, and his newfound breadwinner status (blue collar working man). It's also useful for the cat lady to use as a cheap pick up line.

Truth be told, I was kind of hoping that the person to trip Roast Beef would be anyone other than Ray, if only in order to get Beef a little more fucked. Not to turn this into a soap opera or nothing, but just enough to complete the rock starish allusion that Onstead was making with Beef's greeting card success.

The fluid dynamics of the East River causes a collection of these bodies every year off the docks of Potter's Field."

that buys a black widow spider with a riddle in his yarn

on a train through the Bronx that will take you just as far

Ray is awesome and all, but he seems to have been a bit overused lately.

"That really fucking blagged my head up mate" is exactly how the characters from the British Achewood talk.
"That really fucking blagged my head up mate" tranlates into classical Achewoodian thusly:

The British Achewood is set in...I don't know where its set actually. Is there a British equivalent to California? Cornwall?

It was genuinely fascinating. From a Mind/Brain Theory and even an epistemological standpoint, it changed the way we view what the Mind is made of - prior to this, debates raged (with most backers still in the camp of Cartesian or other forms of Dualism) that the Mind is non-physical, and thus equating to the Soul or somehow on the spiritual plane. Therefore, also, equating emotions, personality, sensation and otherwise personal experience to also be spiritual (don't get me started on how this has unfortunately influenced the Church in regards to the classification and treatment of mental illness).
But the fact that some dude can have a completely unspiritual and utterly earthly-plane-bound metal spike jammed through his noggin, and resultingly have his entire personality changed from a self-controlled, wholesome and temperate family man to a bar-brawling, psychotic and mean-spirited drunkard blew a lot of this out of the water, and is still a perfect example of the effect of the physical on the brain, and thus, on the mind/personality and possibly the essence of your being. You couldn't ask for a better scientific example.

I have to figure out what legal channels one has to go through to get a viking burial approved. I'd be loaded on a boat with some hay and all my important personal belongings (I'm imagining a bottle of scotch and a stack of porno mags), then set adrift to serve as floating target practice for some archers with flaming arrows. I think the most difficult part would be to find archers skilled enough to guarantee that I would be ignited, because that would be kind of embarrassing, me all corpsified, floating out to sea with a boat full of liquor and porno, nobody wants to be remembered like that.

The original guys should be there at the end, yeah. But we don't need it to be some "full circle" bullshit where Ray and Beef die before the final strip so that the very last line is "Philippe is standing on it."

Well, as an amateur time traveler, I can say with quite a bit of authority that this strip isn't going to end anytime in the next 20,000,000 years, though none of the principle characters survive past 2060 (sans Philippe and the robots, of course)
Some future storylines to watch out for:
-Civil war erupts within the council of the Great Outdoor fight. Ray's sons Honky Love and Ray Jr. stand on opposite sides of the conflict
-A new character, Bob Doubledon, is introduced, the focus of the strip begins to shift to his escapades
-Ray is slowly raised up to the status of a god after his death
-Philippe adopts a baby bird
-Lie Bot merges his consciousness with a supercomputer and eradicates 90% of all life on earth, keeping only Philippe for company
-Vlad is launched into space
-Lie Bot is destroyed by a group of renegade animals called "The friends of Smuckles"
-Philippe becomes king of a small island in the middle of old Achewood Lake
-Strip goes on hiatus after Humanity is destroyed by the genetically-engineered servent crabs they created.
-Strip returns from hiatus, becomes much more crab-oriented
-Philippe finds a quarter (one of my personal favorite strips)
-The probe containing Vlad (who now possesses god-like powers) returns to earth
-Crabby McCakington (one of the strips focal characters during the crab years) buys a scuttlecar, finds out it is possessed
-Philippe has too much applesauce and becomes just livid.
-The beetle-people which will eventually become the dominant life-form on this planet are featured for the first time.
-Crableton S Cakeington (Great-great-great grandson of Crabby) enters the Great Outdoor fight
-Philippe goes to France (Now called QW'THsqWwW'RrtT)

One real quick thing I took from this strip (this is not a criticism, I loved it) is that perhaps Onstad is afraid to really hurt Roast Beef more than his inner hurt already hurts him daily. Because I guess he feels so real to me, and I guess a lot of people out there by extension, we'd all get really hurt too.

Anyway the Quo have this gimmick where the guitarist all stand in a line (see pic above) and sway their guitars in time to the music. This is done in unison is, the. lamest. thing. ever.

That would probably be the most hilarious thing to watch stoned. I remember being high and watching a video of The Eagles doing Life in the Fast Lane and their stage presence was at the same time so robotic and so well-honed that they looked like magical, mechanical old people.

I mean...kinda. I am certainly not going to hold your head in a toilet until you agree with my musical taste, but nerdcore isn't all satirical. Part of its appeal is definitely that nerdy white kids aren't supposed to be the ones rapping, but it's also that they are just using a medium in a way it hasn't been used yet.
There is a lot of genuine emotion in, for example, "I Heart Fags," as well as a lot of using the medium of rap to create sick rhymezz or whatever. It's kinda funny because rap has not been known for its friendliness toward gay people, but then again, there's no reason that rap can't or shouldn't be about loving fags.
But, yo, we can agree to disagree. I'll just go watch that Olde English Food Rap thing for like the thousandth time and you can point and laugh at my lowbrow revelry. I am cool with that.

Hm, I do think there is quite a bit more long-term character development, change, and growth in Achewood than in your average sitcom, I've always attributed some of those traits as being just the character getting honed? (you mean the character that I... honed ?)
Like, before Cornelius was in the style of Frasier, he was more or less interchangeable with Teodor. Before Ray was made to be rich, he was Pat with sunglasses.
But since that sort of overhaul of the characters, where they started to have those emergent personality traits, they've remained fairly stasis. Not that it is a bad thing, a character that is constantly changing or developing makes for either a drama, or bad writing. You're more or less right, but for me, it seems like the characters found a rhythm and have kept the pace since then. And it all came together when Mom sang along!

Yes but people habitually come back to life. Beef was always poor and ostracized whereas Ray's Mom showed up with many types of soda. There's a difference between adding details to characters and changing their basic nature. Cornelius will never become a NASCAR fan; Beef won't cheer up and Ray has always had that magic charm around his neck.

The Best Comment I Never Made
I had a dream a few nights ago that a new Achewood strip was posted featuring someone playing a guitar shaped like Teodor. I was immediately struck by dream inspiration and posted:
"That band was originally supposed to be accompanied by a drum machine, but they made the mistake of putting the Philippe-shaped amp on top of the manual."
I woke up before I could find out if I received any dream-chubbies.
Yeah, so, this didn't have anything to do with this strip, but I couldn't think of a better place to post it.

Tonight, after a few glasses of wine, I was looking at Friday's strip and imagining Chris making it. I know how hard it is to get those lines just right in Illustrator. You keep moving the cursor back and forth, and sometimes no matter where you start, the line just won't curve correctly. I was imaging him cutting and pasting the characters and resizing or cropping them to fit correctly withing the frame.
And the text: maybe he typed those line lines out quickly as his instinctive mind dictated, and then typed and retyped them for hours to get them just right. Maybe he went out for lunch, or played a game with him daughter in between these things. He probably talked to some people about some things, important things, on the telephone.
What must it be like to be Chris Onstadt? He is just a guy doing his job, who just happens to be lucky enough to have been really successful at something that he enjoys. And we appreciate that. If you are reading this Chris, really, we do.

why did you leave irc without saying anything? did I offend you? :( I AM SORRY
wait...so it only does that when you try to talk?
I had set a variable to turn to "1" when I went away
because it didn't see anything when we tried to
and then I was trying to use that variable in an if/else statement for the message
but in that dang "remote" window that monitors incoming crap that wasn't working
HOWEVER that window has an option where you can set "groups" and then you can /enable or /disable those groups with a command
so I just got rid of that variable 1 and then used the /enable/disable
and it is wonderful

If I happen to run across a tool that will do exactly what I was going to do, I will use that tool. It is a special kind of time-saving laziness.
or
That's what you get for complimenting me. You know I can't take it!

Moisture style touches can be received at modest prices from retailers nationwide.
Or, since you are female, you can just stand in one place for more than 30 seconds and guys will hit on you.

or i could do it.
hey, would you like a moisture-style touch? i am willing to perform this service for you. i have a slight paunch around my belly, muscular legs, and a penis size that is above average.

I'm glad the paunch is around your belly and not on your face. That would be embarrassing, I mean leaving your shirt untucked wouldn't hide it at all.

it's awesome, actually. if i leave my shirt untucked, i look like a very slim young man. my paunch is like a little secret, hidden from view. i'm pretty proud of it.
sure, girls find out about it if i take my shirt off. but i figure, hey, if a girl is looking at my torso, then it's probably already too late to change her mind about what's going to happen next.

that is a Good program.
It really is. It gets the job done without a lot of fancy flourish, you know? Plus it's free.
The freeness I like, but I can't really get on with the program itself. I'm just too used to Sound Forge, I guess, because it has more in common with the older sample editors I used 10 years ago. It does quite a few things that annoy me, though. I guess instead of complaining about them here, I could post bug reports on the Sourceforge page..
Er, it wasn't particularly clear that from 'It does quite a few things that annoy me' onwards, I'm referring to Audacity, not Sound Forge. Get some sleep, Synnah.
What y'all think about Ableton? I've really been diggin' it. Totally boss.
Ableton is great. The interface is a little confusing to start with, but it eventually makes sense. It's a lot of fun to just play around with, too.
Audacity: The Roast Beef of audio editing and recording programs.
I've been toying with the idea of getting this.
Rate it compared to GarageBand*.
*which, though I have little experience with GarageBand, it has the distinct privilege of having said about it "if it's good enough for Trent Reznor to authorise for a remix album, it's good enough for me." But I am not going to get a Mac just for it.
Audacity's cheap, and you can crtainly use it to make music, but if you can afford to spend a little bit of money it's better to go with Ableton Live (LE), Reason, Acid, etc. It really depends on your creative process though.
i'm going to be getting Reason and Logic on a new macbook when i go to my sound recording school.
screw all y'all
LOGIC IS TERRIBLE DON'T GET IT
Seriously, I know everyone gives Pro Tools shit because you have to run it off Digidesign hardware, but it is seriously the bomb. It is seven hundred thousand better than Logic.
Reason is eighty five better than Pro Tools, but in a different way.
Also where are you going? SAE? I bet it's SAE.
i'm actually going to the Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences down in phoenix, or, CRAS. also, since i am getting Protools hardware, it is no issue to me that it has to run with Digidesign.
also, it's included with my tuition.
nah i dont use side-system ones any more, other than ableton live. i just have some random sample-editing program and ReNoise
once you go tracker you never go back-er
Herein lies a sentiment I share in the utmost.
I've basically just abandoned my inbox like the wild, screeching feral child that it is. Are important things being said to me? It is unclear.
And let's not forget the new Mowgli or Fijian Chicken Man of Assetbar:
"Most Recent Comment (more)"
...as though were raised by bats and doesn't realise it can't be seen anymore and no longer serves ANY fucking PURPOSE to ANYTHING EVERY DAMN SECOND OF THE DAMN DAY!
this has been fixed now.
This is the most histerical assessment of the inbox situation ever. Nice job.
I never use my inbox either.
Did the same thing with my Yahoo! account. I dare not read in those forbidden woods.
I'm not gonna lie. I love your moxie and I agree with your post.
Also an edit feature? If you are feeling fancy you could have a 'view original comment option too!
See, that missing ' is a perfect example of how useful an edit feature would be.
An edit feature would be nice, but I strongly believe that the inbox sorting is the feature that would be of greatest value to us as a community. It would encourage discussion on all of the strips, not just the most recent one. And is discussion not the principle our Acheworld is founded on?
Riazm wishes to unite the Acheworld through a basic program of inbox sorting and little puppy dogs called Mr. Poopytime.
AN EDIT FEATURE WOULD RUIN THE SPONTANEITY AND PART OF THE AWESOME IF YOU ASK ME
Also, you'd lose all the funny cock-ups and screams of "BBCODE!"
Also also, it would result in further carelessness in posting and ruin part of our elitism, and fuck, we can't have that.
I agree.
I have over two hundred fucking replies in my inbox, I mean I basically think of the internet as a hole I yell in from time to time, but it'd be nice if the hole said things back to me from time to time
...
Okay, rereading that metaphor scares the shit out of me.
Norman: It rubs the lotion on its skin.
Hole: *screaming*
I don't know why cats eating corn right off the cob is so mesmerizing, but anytime I see it happen I'm basically entranced for several minutes.
Sounds like existential despair
It scares you because now you understand a large part of how Donald Trump feels about whomever he's married to at any given moment in time.
Nobody would ever inbox me. New Jersey could die of heat death and I'd still get no inboxes or digital binary messages or whatever they're called.
Okay, spinynorman, prepare to be outgeeked.
With over 5,000 comments to your credit, I think you meant you had over 200 pages of replies, which would be about 50,000 individual replies. Sounds about right, since everyone wants to talk to spinynorman.
Second, your metaphor is straight out of Dark of the Moon by PC Hodgell: Tori shouts into a cave that leads to a space-warpy thing, and his sister Jame (who he thinks is dead) hears him at the other end. She calls back to him, scaring the crap out of him.
You need to steal your material from even more obscure sources, or make up metaphors that no one else has ever made up before in the history of literature. Seriously, I'm disappointed with your creativity at this moment.
- more geek than you (grabs crotch, gives raspberry, says "nyah nyah")
lateadopter, you have given me the courage to say this. spinynorman, I consider you sort of like my vastly superior rival. Every time I say something pretty good, you always show up or have a comment later on that just trumps me. TRUMPS ME. Damn it, I am in high school! I am susceptible to people clearly being better at anything than me!
such arrogance
I dunno what the hell y'all are talking about, but man, this comic was all that I desired. Ah. It was like a tall glass of whiskey.
Congratulations, on twelve posts in you are the First One to Comment on the Actual Comic the Posts are Being Made Under
A man should never drink a 'tall' glass of whiskey. Whiskey is a sipping liquor, or a shootin' booze, but when sipping you use a tumbler, when shootin', the bottle. Come on, man. Come on.
Also, this comic was brilliant. I have already requested moisture style touches on my body.
Did you recieve said moisture-style touches?
Nope. I haven't received too many moisture-style touches lately, to my great chagrin.
I saw the Great Chagrin perform at the Bellagio in '98. Overrated if you ask me.
Consider that joke stolen. It's too good to just be here on the internet.
sounds like ATHF's second season if you ask me. Carl Brutananadilewski to be exact.
"It gets the moisture touches on its skin or else it gets the hose again."
tralala
I disagree with all that you say. Except the liking the comic part.
I don't know what you are talking about, foetus_punch, I often enjoy a tall glass of whiskey. If you drink whiskey on the rocks from a pint glass, you don't have to refill as often.
I jsut drank a tall glass of said whiskey, and now I'm drunk as a lord. It is not 10 AM. Damn fine idea, though.
I'm gonna be honest here. I introduced that minor spelling error in order to convince people I am drunk. I often worry people will think I am faking it, being a teenager. I'm not, but it is a constant concern.
Foetus_punch, do you think it is rad to have alcoholism?
It would also be nice if there were no redundant comments there. Also, it'd be nice if you could see how many chubbies and lames a comment got in both the inbox and my own comments list.
AMEN
And who gave you said chubbies.
This would have pros and cons - it would ruin the democracy of the system, as society tends to put the popular people on Tiers where their vote means Something More than others.
Which is kinda the problem with democracy - because, as Socrates said (basically):
"The majority of people are really fucking dumb. Why would you give the vote to those dipshits? And politicians will want to undermine each other all the damn time, and the actual leader will be like a blind sea captain, with all his crew telling him where to go while secretly wanting to usurp his power. The whole system is motherfucking ass-backwards."
Socrates said that. Sorta.
Not saying I hate democracy - Churchill (supposedly) once said (basically):
"Democracy is a horrible system, one that always results in corruption and is easily manipulated just as people are easily manipulated by fame, power, and wealth. But dammit, it's also the best one we've got."
Winston Churchill said that. Sorta.
SOMEONE PLEASE PHOTOSHOP SOCRATES GOING ON A SWEARING RAMPAGE I SUCK WAY TOO MUCH
Okay, not a rampage. [] means he speaks greek.
Is that Bruce fucking Dern playing Socrates?
Like hell if I know - I stole it from google and put absolutely awful speech bubbles on
Nah, only a passing resemblance in that one still shot. It was some unknown in the flick.
So much better...
That kinda makes my day.
Can't really agree with your suggestion, though I appreciate your version of famous quotes, so I chubbied for that.
I would feel like I needed to pay back people who chubbied me if I knew who they were, and I would thereby dilute the value of the system (what little value there is). I know others of you are ruthless enough to not care about the people who cubby you, but damn it I'm a sucker for people who are nice to me. I do not expect chubbies, and am grateful when I receive them and would act accordingly to the detriment of the system.
I think, eventually, this was kind of my point. But regardless, I agree with you. This is the whole point of an anonymous-voting democratic system.
Holly shit! There's an inbox?!
