Brie is very melty at room temperature. That's just how brie rolls. I'm surprised that Ray isn't frying that brie up, because fried brie is all kinds of yum, and it's Ray and it's frying.

Not brie in general. Just Ray's gooey variety and the way he's proddin' it. But really, though, everytime I sit on a crowded bench or have a blood test or use a flame thrower or eat lasagna or drive to work or call my mother I think of this scene. So it really doesn't mean much.

frying brie would be considered extremely crass to a guy like ray, who will ditch a party if he sees someone holding their wine glass wrong. brie is soft, but not that soft, so I think only heating explains why ray appears to be dipping into it like salsa con queso.

I tried to stay out of it cause i think le chien kinda has a point, but now he's crossed a line I can't ignore. My third grade math teacher spent most of the 1993-1994 academic year trying to drill into my thick skull that the alligator eats the larger amount of food. His mouth is facing toward '25' instead of 'the group' so that means we're all less than 25 years old.

the days when we posted alt texts are already "heady"?? wasn't that just like a month ago? it didn't seem very heady to me. it was headier when EVERYONE could mark stuff as spam, like what you see when you look at the comments for this strip , which i still think is the strip with the best comments ever, because of socks. that was kind of heady, i guess? maybe not. it is hard for things on a computer screen to be heady.
in any case, despite having more total chubbies than lames at this point, my account is still marked so that i can only post once every 24 hours. i don't know if this is because i have some 400 lames or because i have 7 posts marked as spam or because the powers that be know that otherwise i would pick a day to write the words "ENCROACH UPON MINE MUPPETLIKE TURD," and then click Post several thousand times, in the comments for a new strip (anybody else: please feel free to do this in my stead).

"if you are going to refer to my posts as "his schtick" then you can just crawl back into the VUX intruder you came from, dude "
I was referring specifically to the series of posts containing slash fanfiction labeled as alt text (ie, 12 July 2007). This subset can be accurately described as a schtick; your posts in general can not.
I also just enjoy describing things as "heady," it's an adjective that doesn't get used enough.
Oh well, off to the von Braun with me.

Why is it that a person can post the most pointless and inane comments on here as long as they're gushing in approval, but if a person wants to post a simple statement of dislike you have to elucidate and footnote?
You know what? If people can just post quoted lines from the day's strip with no reason of explanation as to why they like it and get chubbied out the asshole, then chien can post a summary dismissal of a strip in the same manner and not be expected to "explain himself."

Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm fairly certain that we're here to discuss and celebrate the finer bits of this cartoon strip. Sure, people quote it wantonly, but we dig this comic. It is natural. Discuss can certainly mean critique and debate over artistic value, but you can't step into a room of fans with a turd in a basket and expect to be lauded. Pissing on someone's parade is lame, no matter which way you serve it up. And to me, it seems like this guy's job to do just that.

True, but it's no less natural to make a bit of a smart ass quip when you don't like something, as well.
Sure, this is a fan board, but please tell me that you don't all think that every comic is beyond criticism. I think chien's comment is pretty accurate in general, and this is coming from some one who gives out 5's way too fucking much (look at my public view, even I'm embarrased). Everybody knows now that, most of the time you post something negative, you're going to get lamed/burned/etc., but too often it seems way too vehement, fan-boyish. Everybody who signs up to this thing probably likes the strip as a whole, so if someone makes a negative comment now and again, don't act like he's the damned devil for doing so.

Man, I gave this strip a 2. But summarily dismissing the entire board for their opinion is just being a dick. That was a condescending comment, and it deserved to be lamed. I agree that saying why you don't like a strip gets the communal axe far too often , but being a furious cock about it doesn't help the matter.
Good to see someone reasonable on the board, either way though. Chubby for that.

Well, my point was more that he had a pretty big statement and he didn't back it up at all. That's fine, I had no bones with that, but I came in after he and Blastridus got into name-calling (I also found Blastridus' comment lame). It was the "fuck off, you utter dick," which attitude I feel is getting a little too common, and I said so, as I've said here before. In large I agree with both you and hellofyellin. Alas, all my chubbies have been given out for this strip. I'll get you folk next time.

While I do agree that users are sometimes (sometimes) a little bit too trigger happy when it comes to laming criticizms, in this case I believe it was justified. Not only was his original statement crude, but he also insulted the rest of the fanbase in the process.

We are having heated words over a cartoon .
The cartoon gave us this .
It gave us this also .
It is a comic strip. A well-read, often brilliant comic, and one of only a few worth worth reading, but it is a comic strip.
We are arguing over things called "Chubbies" and "Lames", real estate that is not only wholly conceptual, but whose only function is to register the value of your opinions based on the opinions of people you have never met .
This thing is supposed to be for fun. Let's have fun.

I've been a jackass. I'm really sorry. I actually agree with your first post. Onstad could do about anything on here and get some solid feedback just because he's Onstad, but that's because he built up a solid repertoire, you know?
Your second post was kind of rude, even if the guy before was wrong or being stupid. Hell, he probably just wanted to quote the strip as a comeback. I only got into it because your posts were...well, you know.
HOWEVER , that doesn't give me the excuse to go off on you and fire up an argument. Over a god-damn comic strip.
Hellofyellin has a good point. I don't know you and you don't know me but that doesn't mean we can't be civil, right? I'm backing off.
Sorry, man.

I've seen Hotel Chevre , and the tagline is actually in French, and translates to " Poached He Goat " It's just a thin slice of life wedge precedes The Darjeeling Mimolette . It isn't that great, and it won't be shown with the film in theaters, so you might have to wait tilsit comes around on DVD and rennet.
The best part is Natalie Portman with her panties gone . Lovely young woman, but certainly not buxton; just a wee shred of a girl really.

1) " that thing with Todd's head exploding"
2) the contrast between cats who negotiate with media conglomerates and dogs that eat too much candy and make themselves sick
3) Viacom forcing people to sign NDAs to protect their horrible animal clip show
4) Ray's way of intimating that something pretty bad happens to the dog
5) For Ray, a wheel of brie is a reason for a get-together

Is it just me, or are there a lot of people here looking for a punchline in every strip? That is very un-Achewood. Its roots grow in anti-punchline soil. The story arcs involve exposition, build-up, character development, etc., and may not include any punchlines. See the "Beef Proposes to Molly" arc for a prime example.
Then again, I remember there were some who complained about that arc being too saccharine. Whatever. Onstad should ignore the polls, is all I'd say.

Seriously. With greater Achewood exposure comes greater trending toward every strip getting a perfectly average vote, it seems. Is it mathematically inevitable that soon every strip will rate a 2.5/5?
I came for the absurdity, and stayed for the absurdity. The punchline strips are cool, but they're not the stock-in-trade of Achewood. People who vote otherwise aren't getting the scene yet.

America's national anthem is about the flag, not the country. It's set to the tune of an old English drinking song. It is hard as fuck* to sing.
America the Beautiful would make a far superior national anthem. Then we wouldn't be shamed nearly as much as we are by O Canada .
* I don't even want to imagine what is sounded like around the local when that horrible tune was being sung by a bunch of drunks. *shudder*

Indeed. Why, oh why did they not pick an anthem that has a tune that can be sung by human vocal cords?
Also, my nominee for Greatest National Anthem of All Time goes to Russia . After the USSR folded, they decided to use an instrumental with the depressingly generic title of " Patriotic Song " as an anthem, but then they decided hey, the guy who wrote the lyrics to the Soviet anthem is still around, why not have him write new lyrics for Russia? And lo, it was done.
And I agree with you about "America the Beautiful" and "O Canada." The phrase "the True North strong and free" is wonderfully evocative.

All national anthems suck balls. Some of them may sound alright, but the very idea of a national song makes me want to barf

Straight up! Achewood used to be all about strangeness... not that kind of forced adult swim hey-what's-the-biggest-non-sequiter-we-can-possibly-
throw-on-the-screen strangeness, but a truly confounding organic strangeness that, I don't know, it sort of gave the comic a mystique, didn't it? Like this was a parallel universe, not just a series of gags delivered by animals.
Yeah, I know, get a life.

I wish I had a chubby left to give you- it's always nice to see some criticism that actually critiques, instead of just shitting all over the board.

I know, they taste about the same to me. Different regions in France, probably. Maybe different cows. The only difference for me is that Camembert makes me think of this and Brie of that .

If you walk into the same room as a good cambembert, you will know it is there. Brie is pretty mild in comparison.

ACHEWORLD, Today's Molly Blog references a waiter getting into the booth with people, can anyone remember what part of the Acheworld this is from? I think it was a blog, possibly a Beef blog but I don't feel like chasing it up.
Anyone remember?

You! Irondave! You dared doubt me, but now after five months of searching, I have found the blog in question:

It's a Ray blog from three years ago, and it's a different restaurant but I like to think it's the same guy.
Another case closed for... the ACHEWOOD CONTINUITY POLICE.

I just can't figure out why Molly would expect Beef to have Showbiz as a groomsman. She has met him. He is terrible.

She said in one of her blog posts that Beef said to her 'when you marry a guy, you marry his family' and she agreed. She seems almost keen, certainly extremely steadfast, about having to deal with Showbiz. Myself I think that's a bad attitude, but it seems Beef shares it too... although maybe Beef thinks paying off Showbiz's debt is one thing, but voluntarily inviting him to the wedding he'll only ruin is another.
What I want to know is why is it when the 'biz is around Beef suddenly becomes uber-responsible?

I'm guessing you have no siblings. Their behavior might reflect on you because you were raised together, so their slightest misstep tends to shame you into overbearing responsibility. Similarly with significant others, whom you have actively chosen to be with--their bad manners might be mistaken for the thing that attracted you. Of course, yielding to the urge to correct is what reflects poorly on you in these situations, as it reveals a heart lacking in generosity toward a loved one.
- Daaanng, he's a philosopher today, people! Now if he could just learn to talk like a normal person, instead of some guy with dictionary stuffed up his ass.

This is a comment. I read it. I read this comment.
Yes, the number of comments escalated, probably b/c of this: Assetbar started roughly in the spring of 2007, I think (I've been reading achewood for 4 or 5 years, but didn't join Assetbar right away). In general, you'll probably notice more comments for any strips after that time, and the longer on it goes, and more people join, the more comments you'll see on the newer strips.
Add in the unfortunate fact that you rarely get a 5-strip-a-week effort from Onstad these days (in fact, it seems to average about 3 strips a week nowadays), and you wind up seeing conversations and comments piling up on a strip's 2nd day being featured as the newest one.
By the way, I'm not necessarily bitching about the less frequent new comics (that's purely based on my current perception; I haven't researched the archive or anything)
