I hate being self-righteous about things like that but I mean, jesus, I was in German last semester and a 22 year old graduating senior was quoting the Knights of Ni scene, very poorly, like he had Discovered this Lost Movie and was doing the class a service, and apparently the girl next to him found it funnier than anything ever created. Maybe it's because when I was 14 I watched that movie way too much and then outgrew the stage where all I myself did was quote it, but it just bothers me when some kid I know at school or anywhere will be like "Yo you ever heard of Monty Python and the Holy Grail."

The problem is with such a large sample size that five different classifications are hardly enough for a strip. A 3.5-leaning 4 and a 4.4999-leaning 4 are way different from each other in quality.

I'll let you in on a secret - the statistical mode for most strips I rate is about a two. Obviously, this is intra-Achewood rating, rather than compared to external sources.
But Dayam, if you don't give a strip that has you on the floor giggling like a toddler on ether a Five, then the ratings themselves are meaningless.

Including the sheep worked, but I don't think it was necessary to set it up in advance. If anything it makes me think that Onstad threw it in as a last-minute, end of the strip joke as a concession to how poorly received the previous strip was and how the sheep was generally considered the best part. So he goes for an easy joke.
I was thinking that perhaps he had been stalling for time so this would be exactly a year later, but no. Young Charley was KOODGEd on July 25. He is still well away from the exact date.
This was a bit better, but yeah, some of the dialogue seems forced. Onstad has shown us that he still has it with plenty of strips fairly recently, but when he gets stuck in these arcs he doesn't seem to be able to keep the idea going well or then pull out of it gracefully with a proper resolution. It becomes obvious that he's just making it up as he goes along and rehashing ideas or inflating weak concepts to get by at times.
I think it's the arc format. It encourages laziness and forces him to think about story a bit too much. It's one thing to have a short series of strips planned out because they'll take too long for one strip, but the very long ones like this should probably get their own KOODGE. Wales might be able to handle them in a way we cannot.

Onstad has shown us that he still has it with plenty of strips fairly recently, but when he gets stuck in these arcs he doesn't seem to be able to keep the idea going well or then pull out of it gracefully with a proper resolution. It becomes obvious that he's just making it up as he goes along and rehashing ideas or inflating weak concepts to get by at times.
I think it's the arc format. It encourages laziness and forces him to think about story a bit too much. It's one thing to have a short series of strips planned out because they'll take too long for one strip, but the very long ones like this should probably get their own KOODGE. Wales might be able to handle them in a way we cannot.

I like the arcs. It takes an arc to explain the depth of Beef's sadness. Mexican Magical Realism couldn't have been explained in a series of unrelated strips either.

Some arcs know where they're going. Lately it seems like this hasn't been the case so much. Even the Mexican Magical Realism arc, which seemed at least partially plotted once we started heading down to Mexico, had a bit of slack. Plus, well, that was a rich and varied series of strips that explored Beef looking chunkity, Pat coming out, the curse, Benjamin Butters, and the trip to Mexico. It wasn't just people standing in a field talking about stuff that hasn't yet been invented in Wales.

True, this arc is mostly about bringing LN back and sheep jokes, but we get a glimpse of LN's true talents. Playing "Japanese man" and selling fake memorabilia to Ray on eBay hinted at possibilities, but I think we've all seen that our adolescent wearing separate jean legs (perhaps a stroke of genius in itself) is beginning to grow up.
He's even being referred to as "Charley" instead of "Little Nephew". What we are seeing is the teenage life of a future member of The Syndicate.

Then, well, I suppose you will have decimated whatever imaginary liter the fifth has come from.
I suppose altogether, though, the linguistic oddity of drinking half of something yet imagining that you are drinking one-tenth of some larger quantity is more pleasant than, say, murdering 9 out of every 10 people you run into on the street.
Unless, of course, this mythical fifth of which you speak is Midori, in which case it might better suit you to straight up kill those folks, 'cause that shit is just not meant for human consumption.

Well, I am willing to agree that this is correct, but as far as I'm concerned, if there were any justice in this world, the word decimate would mean 'reduce something to 1/10th its original size/strength/etc' and I say fie on the English language for its brashness.

Belgand, I do realize that I was incorrect (though see below on my thoughts about Wikipedia, etc., and preferring to be wrong due to my own cognitive process than right because I 'looked it up'...) in my original statement about what the word 'decimate' means, as well as what a fifth is. What I keep thinking, though, is that the word 'decimate' would make more sense if it meant 'reduce to 1/10th' rather than 'reduce by 1/10th'. The suffix of the word (whether we think it's 'ate' or 'mate') seems to me to generally mean 'to make into something' (thus, 'animate' as making into liveliness or animal-ness or whatever you like, 'validate' as making valid, etc.), so adding the prefix deci- to that seems logically to suggest that one is making something into a tenth of itself. Plus, it seems to me that if we want the term to sound really impressive in terms of military endeavors and so forth, using it 'correctly' (that is, correctly for how I want the language to work) we would talk about 90% casualties as a 'decimation' rather than 10%. Retains much more visceral impact, if'n you ask me.
But anyway, I'm just completely going off the linguistic handle here, and I am fully prepared to pull out my umbrella of feigned unwoundable-pride-liness to defend against a completely warranted hail of lames.
I'm actually not trying to be all down on the English language, in general. Although if anyone read recently about that bullshit guy who was trying to say he had officially figured out the one millionth word in the English language, but it turns out that the word was some abomination like 'Web 2.0' or some shit, plus just about every 'respected' source of linguistic authority has basically called this guy a douchebag in more diplomatic terms - I ain't hearing any of that noise.
Plus, let's remember German, in which apparently it's all well and good to just smash as many damn words together as you please and call it a new word. No wonder Nietzsche loved that shit.

Well, I didn't have to look it up. That sort of thing is what I'd consider to be common knowledge.
Two, trying to make it sound more impressive is missing the point and historical origins. Which you'd think would matter when you're trying to be pedantic.
Three, it's not even really English if you want to get down to it. It's from the Latin decimatio . Sure, we've adapted it slightly, but we're still using basically the same word for the same meaning.

Just to be clear, the 'looking it up' dig was not actually directed at you.

You wouldn't want to take a pull from your "two hundo"? I suspect that this term has plenty of traction even if, as is revealed by granularsilica, it is not even correct.
In this context, however, a five hundo problem is likely to indeed be a deep condition that necessitates that degree of alcoholic imbication.

That was Crimson, right? Great fuckin' album. Though the part intended to be listened to while your head is submerged in a bucket felt like they had a great concept and tone, but didn't quite know where to go with it.

A Certain Point in Our Cultural Development would be a good band name.
They will be from Montreal. Shortly before the release of their debut album (Pitchfork rating: 8.2), but after the internet-only release of their obscure 5-track EP, they will be on the cover of Paste . They will not receive a Rolling Stone feature until five years later, after the release of their third album at which fans sneer because it is distributed by a major label.
One of the members will wear sunglasses too large for his/her head at all times.

Hmm... so does hole refer specifically to the degree of slack in the hole itself? I was thinking perhaps it might refer to the nature of the owner of said "hole". Or, for that matter, not necessarily being quite so literal about it and, not considering even the degree to which it might lose tone, simply a term to express the large degree of suitors who had enjoyed said hole's company.
In high school I knew a lady who produced so many scarves that she emitted audible creaking.

Ray thinks that Iorwerth wished for a sheep with much feminine style, but he does not realize that the Nagel is powerless without the tag. The result is a hilarious glare of an accusatory tone, which is met by the bewilderment Peter Townshend felt when he found out his computer didn't get all the kiddie porn away.

Incidentally, as I don't believe this has been mentioned since Ray was introduced to the storyline, I guess it's now been confirmed that they are indeed in the past as opposed to Heaven-Wales, which is good as that's a total oxymoron right there. So how come Iowerth shot Little Nephew at the end of the wedding arc?

This bothered me as well.
Slightly worse is that Mexican Magical Realist objects not only have transferable properties based on the "Hecho en Mexico" tag, but are somehow also apparently conduits for wishes? That is not how they work! Basically every previous product acted with absolutely no regard for the feelings of its user, typically being used as a device to explore feelings and teach the owners more about themselves. It's not a fucking magic lamp.

The cats haven't really been actual housecat size in basically forever. With the only exceptions being when Onstad is in the strip which also never really happens that often these days.
They're basically just people living in a people world that is somehow populated almost entirely with cats and occasionally other animals. But since the rise of the cats mainly just them.
I mean, he has a background reason why they are the way they are, but since it doesn't really suit his later form of storytelling it's kind of been ignored. It's not like he went into this trying to be a furry or something... unless that's his turbo secret.

are you implying that there is only one troll on assetbar
this place is a boarding-house and brunch for trolls of all kinds, from the well-educated fact-spewing artistes, congenial gentlemen with peerless wit who reply to every comment with a clever zinger, the wall-of-text typing E-Scholars, to the Old Dudes who make young kids cry, and the E-gangstas ala Charley Smuckles. except instead of tasty scrambled eggs and toast you get lames and people angry on the Interwub at you.
of course, that's the amusing part of assetbarbarians. Everybody remembers Asherdan, Dr. Manflesh, aperson, daidai, glad, and this other guy who constantly called Onstad a gay and a queer, I don't care enough to remember his name right now. and that's like 10% of the wacky, hysterical people we have on Assetbar today.
I figured we all wanted to be chill with each other and look past the super obvious trolling, and just shrug dudes like Glad off as amusement and hilarity. So I didn't want to come to specifics about this
wouldn't have figured you to be calling people trolls either, hedonismbot
assetbar justice is usually dispensed with lames - more lames = more trolling power, so we know who to watch out for.
it's 2:10 am and i'm pretty baked, so i'm just pretty conversational right now
don't want to argue with nobody, chill if you think i'm getting all confrontational and shit

A classic frustration in the human experience is to not be understood or be misunderstood. And it does frustrate me how people think of myself (AIU) as a troll. The fact of the matter is that I simply lack the situational and social awareness necessary to troll on purpose. For the most part, it simply happens on accident. If I come across as an insensitive jerk, it's not because I'm trying to be, it's merely because I am! But I'm not just any kind of jerk. I'm an accidental jerk. It's mostly beyond my control. Okay there have been times I crossed some lines, but, eh, even there, it's impossible for me to really have a huge degree of awareness and corresponding empathy for exactly where that line in the sand is and what it means to people. This is why I explore it so relentlessly, because it's not a foregone conclusion in my mind, it's not a settled matter. I question everything deliberately because I understand nothing automatically. Why is the sky blue and why is blue blue and why is my hair not blue and why do people care what color my hair is and why is this or that appropriate and at what point does social structure become group-think and so on and so forth. So yeah, by recursively exploring every possible iteration of our reality, I do hit on some funny concepts sometimes. anyway. whatever. my cat gets xrays tomorrow. maybe they will xray my hand in the same xray. I'm paying enough fucking money for it so they should.
I also have a new kitten that jumped into the street while I was riding my motorcycle past. it's wonderful to have a new kitten, but would sure be nice too if my other cat can be brought back to health. if not I guess I can always mail him in a ziplock bag to Achileselbow.

I would give you a chubby but that wasn't funny.

No-one wants to hang around someone with their foot up their ass? I... what? Is this a joke? Is that a common opinion? Shit.

Ladies and also well meaning dudes, i wonder if i order a Flaming Bob Marley while going to the bar with a prospective date, do i look like a total douche ?
if yes, would a White Russian be any better ? Sidecar ? Just stay with common beer ? Help a guy out ( you have 2h30 to do so, thank you )

That depends whether you order it shaken or with balls touching.

I don't know what a Flaming Bob Marley is, but I don't really think your choice of drink is going to affect the outcome of a date (unless you get really drunk and have chosen a liquor that doesn't get along with you, I guess).
Anyway, a simple whiskey sour is always a classic choice that won't make a lady think you are of low mind.

The Fine Art of Mixing Drinks specifies six basic drinks: the Martini, the Manhattan, the Old Fashioned, the Daiquiri (not frozen, of course), the Sidecar, and the Jack Rose. In this case I would omit the daiquiri as that seems like, in this case, perhaps an inappropriate time and place to consume such a thing. I would opine that you cannot go wrong with any of these. Any liquor served neat or in a highball consisting of only one mixer is also probably acceptable and a valid substitution for the absent daiquiri.

Since we're on the subject of sheep in Wales, I figured this would be appropriate!
It's cool of them to host their show directly in front of a Stargate. I bet they get some cool guests through there.
Or is that the Eye of Sauron? Sorry Brits, we Americans are so ethnocentric about the foreign media.
ray thinks sanders wants to fuck a sheep that looks like ray in a nagel model poncho.
Sanders: I'm not into sheep wearing lipstick.
Ray: Yet that is exactly what I see here.
The possibility of pimping sheep dyed in tacky 20th century prints to welsh men from the 17th century has to be somewhere in the back of ray's enterprising mind. LN ain't the only marketeer on the block.
I can't believe you would mock QI. Do you not realise that the season's winner becomes our head of state? Also it is hosted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, and that 'Eye of Sauron' is actually a display case containing Nelson's skull. You've basically just pissed all over all Britain's most cherished cultural institutions at once.
He's an American, what did you expect? Tactfulness and respect?
Tact is for faggots
And then you bitch when we say we hate you.
we?
Oui.
..wee?
Wii.
Did I hear someone say Wiiaboo?
Hehe, wiitards.
And unbewiivers.
No, no, no, plummet-the correct spelling is "fagets", but usu. is singular, e.g., "u r faget lol". Please make a note of it.
Like Saget!
What about the contraction 'fgt'? Is it acceptable to use on occasion?
I would say no, since it's possible that someone could believe from your use of it that you knew how to spell it correctly, but chose to contract it. Better to make sure that everyone knows for sure that you spell like a functional illiterate.
Will you children please just go home? Preferably to your rooms, maybe by an open window, possibly on a second or third story. Don't ask why.
I'll agree to that if you'll agree to study closely the concept of irony.
No, you'll agree to that with no conditions because I don't want to see my precious assetbar soiled by the same humdrum shenanigans that have soiled every other bastion of rectitude to ever be present on the world wide webbernet.
I have some bad news for you, pal.
Quote:
That ship, as they say, sailed a long, long, time ago. And my comments, at least, were ironic. So perhaps you should look for some new source of outrage. Unless your condemnation of this "thread" is itself an ironic comment on reflexive response, in which case well done.
Stephen Fry and Bill Bailey? I'm not certain I can properly handle this.
Thanks for the reference, courtland. I hope that show is carried on BBC America.
Dang-it isn't.
Dogg you gotta purchase them, only like $60 for A-C.
At least, that's what I'm afraid I'll have to shell out in the near future.
