Latino Health Crisis?

I think a better question is why does she think of England?

because england is so hot

Lie back and think of England... it's a saying for when you have to do something you don't particularly like. It originated because English women did not like having sex back in the day, so they would just do it for the continuation of their great nation. I think that speaks more for English men than it does the women.

Urban legend attributes it to Queen Victoria, advising a young woman on how to get through the horrors of intercourse. That strikes me as pretty unlikely. The phrase caught on in the culture boom of the 1920s as a way of making fun of Victorian repression, and now lingers wherever uptight white people can be found.

Man, Prince Albert spent more time on top of Victoria than New South Wales does. Victoria was a serious sex-hound, she had 9 children and both a Scottish lover AND an Indian lover by the end of her reign.

I think that I'm going to have to go and lie down. All this thinking about Victoria has gotten me all flustered.

I don't know if anybody here got your Australian states reference. Good line, though. Subtle.

I know that reference. I know it.

calm down.

Lie down and try not to think of England.

The Oscar Wilde avatar makes this

you're so cool can i be you?

I find it awkward and anxiety-producing, myself, but whatever floats your boat, dude.

I'm guessing it had more to do with the English being one of the ugliest people on the planet.

Do it for the PastaPro Express.

I think back in the Victorian days, sex was kind of frowned upon but because it was necessary for procreation, it was considered doing your duty for your country

So that's what that references, I think

I could be wrong though!

wikipedia has some ideas

Great find! Chubby!

scroll down before commenting, boredom man. yes.

THE

I will now try to go by that name.

The Latino Health Crisis has a story all his own, a tale of battles won and loves lost in the dingy streets of Bogota and beyond. The 2006 Great Outdoor Fight is but one of them.

I wish to GOD that there was an actual amateur or professional fighter called "The Latino Health Crisis". I would have started hitting the gym in '06 just to make it happen... but I'm not of Latin extraction.

I know where you can get some Latin extraction.

because she's taking her mind off her prostitution

Man, what's your problem? I just called your wife a cheap whore, and you're acting all mad and shit. People these days don't know how to take constructive criticism.

The last frame is a perfect effigy of mortal anger.

I love that his head is apparently quivering more than his fists. That's true loathing.

Cast:

Leander = Henry Rollins
Latino Health Crisis = Danny Trejo
Perfect Ron Sipes = William H. Macy

...at least, that's my dream.

Luis Guzman is Latino Health Crisis

THE

Willem DeFoe could be Perfect Ron Sipes

Danny Trejo is every Mexican bit-part ever

Occasionally there's Cheech Marin.

Danny Trejo is the breathing embodiment of Mexican asskickery. Just reading his imdb trivia page will cause hair to sprout from your chest.

If there is a man rawer than Danny Trejo, I don't want to meet him. Trejo is raw enough for his very own Great Outdoor Fight.

The Google Image Search Engine supports your theory by having Danny Trejo appear shirtless in 3 of its first 5 results. That beats Britney Spears AND Paris Hilton.

...and yes I hesitated before doing google image searches for spears and hilton.

...it was for research...

Just keep telling yourself that. It'll help you not feel so dirty.

This == true. He deserves every bit of respect for making a career out of circumstances.

Leander all with his Black Flag tattoo...

It would be pretty tacky of Henry Rollins to have a Black Flag tattoo

And yet, he does.

'The Latino Health Crisis' is one of my favourite things that has ever come out of Chris Onstad's mind.

Yeah, I'm having trouble getting over it right now. It's so awesome that its effects on my mind cannot be put into words.

I mean god-DAMN. The Latino Health Crisis , people!

Leander has the Black Flag insignia tattooed on him. That's cool.

He is one to mock a person's spending habits.
Hee, delightful.

The alt text is probably one of the greatest in all of Achewood.

Telling a fighting man to calm down will result in negative calming down.

Calming UP, if you will.

Latino Health Crisis looks like Danny Trejo...if he were turned into a cartoon cat, that is.

Thank you, Snitchy. Thank you for laming every single comment on this page. I don't know if you were making a statement if the simple thought of being able to act like a cunt with no real consequences caused you to have a malevogasm. All I know is, you are a dick.

Dick.

The Latino Health Crisis rocks the pince-nez shades. Never would have thought he and Cornelius had common fashion DNA.

"asshole shit motherfucker" has entered my vocabulary. that is one of many things that makes this strip a solid 5.

Anyone else think that Leander should be RB's long lost brother. Does anyone else think that would be the raddest thing on the planet. RB finally getting someone that is not an turd biscuit from his genetic line.

It would be awesome. But Awesome and Reality don't often exist in kind.

Pretty much.

What? I'm not sure what I posted this.

not what WHY, ASSHOLE SHIT MOTHERFUCKER

Here Awesome and Reality co-exist. Please take photos class, this is a rare moment.
