This is a pretty big step forward for Beef; considering his own death a bad thing and all. Not too long ago the form would have looked like:
Was the death:
[_] Tragic (accidentally shot by Navy SEALs when taken hostage during bank robbery)
[_] Heroic (crushed while protecting group of schoolchildren from stampeding escaped zoo creatures e.g. llamas)
[X] Ironic (died of heart attack while participating in charity fun run dressed as giant angry cigarette)
[_] Pathetic (broke neck falling from stepladder after adjusting crooked-hanging signed and framed photograph of Jonathan Frakes)
Was the county inconvenienced by his passing.
[X] The boy did have the good sense to organise and label his financial papers and leave them clearly visible
[_] Affairs were in order but he died on a golf course and no carts were available for transportation of the body; coroners forced to fold his corpse into a caddy
[_] Damn fool had outstanding video rentals and died on the can
Will he be missed.
[_] TIME magazine will mourn his passing
[_] Friends will raise a glass to his memory but may struggle to recall his name
[_] His lady will be sad but he was insured at least
[X] Not too much no sir

Your boobs are the Opposite of Lame. Those who lamed you would have done so because you linked to a personal site of yours, thus making Assetbar less anonymous and, arguably, less intellectual/arty.
Meanwhile, I like yo skillz wif a camera and stuff. And the fact that you actually take a lot of photos! Not enough people do that. Like, we go "oh, that'd be cool to take a photo of" but then it never happens. The fact that you do it, and then pull out good lookin' stuff, is commendable. And more specifically, I like your use of lighting, particuarly the "smoke" photo.

Roast Beef isn't the least bit offended by Vlad's comment because a friend who screams "tonight, we drink!" when you fall on bad lady times is so valuable. Anybody can do it, but witness the bitter enthusiasm and conviction summoned just because of one hint in that direction. He'd be an indispensable ally if you suddenly had a worst case scenario to cope with.

Maybe it was a Waco Kid sort of thing
Like everybody kept challenging him to fights
And one day he hears somebody behind him say "put up your dukes", and he turns around with fists ready, and just as he's about to throw a bonecrushing punch he sees it's a six-year-old kid
So he had to leave to protect his family from the possibility of his being in prison for beating up a kid
Or something
This thing sorta got away from me

In one of the blogs, he said that he ate a bit of beef because the doctor told him to or something. So he's already not a strict vegetarian; why he got to be rude about the fact no one made him anything? I'm vegetarian, but I never expect people to "accommodate my needs." I just eat the salad and shut up.

I'll stand up for the champ and say initially he wasn't crapping on Pat's veganism. He just pointed out that the guy wasn't eating much and wouldn't be able to drink properly. He only got hostile when Pat complained about 'modern diet' concerns. He should have lied and said he ate too much breakfast, or has a parasite, or has the nastiest case of the squirts ever. Ramses would have shaken his head, sighed, and gone on with things quietly.

All of this kind of points to him winning the GOF by simply beating down a lucky succession of asses; the man has science but no style. He thinks three dollars is a good price for wine.

I think it depends on your expectations. Ramses does not have the flair and class of Cornelius, but he is not Cornelius, and does not want to be. If you imagine a socially awkward, two-fisted, strong and silent man of deeds, then Ramses is the paradigm of such a man. He's no sort of father but you'd be damn lucky to have him next to you in a machine gun nest. The fact that his children will always end up hating him is part of his magnificent pathos. It's not as though the man ran off to be happy on a beach in Bali; he's probably spent the last fifteen years eating beef jerky and listening to country and western. Some dudes are too hard to be happy, and only bring pain to those who try to love them.

And I will acknowledge that I knew without Google that Heath Ledger was in Brokeback Mountain.
So apparently it's Brokeback Mountain.
Now, to figure out who that pufferfish in the wedding dress is.
Seems "Alma" was the name of Heath's character's wife in the movie. (Sounds Mormon, but that's for other searches, other times!)
Now let's go back to the IMDB listing ... who played "Alma" ...
Ah! Michelle Johnson. Never heard of her, but here she is looking uncomfortable around America's Philip Seymour Hoffman:

I sympathize with Ray on this one. Having family members that you don't expect randomly show up at life changing events is harsh news, no matter what the circumstance. I found out that I had a sister at my grandma's funeral and let me tell you, that stole poor nana's thunder a little bit.

It's alright. Sooner or later Roastbeef will notice his situation, and take a break from the reception to wheel him off to a little cottage hospital for defrocked priests and disappointed cooks and the like. Then Beef will leave on his honeymoon and one of the nurses will give Teodor a puzzle to do. He won't actually put any of the pieces together, just push them around the baize card table. Over time he will learn to move around and speak once more, but his laugh will never have joy in it again. Soon he'll be just another little old man in an overcoat several sizes too big, shuffling down the street to buy milk and brown sherry.

Well, I didn't hear actual complaints about the steak or booze, though I'm sure certain alcoholic family members had a tough night of it. The fucking cupcakes, though, were roundly dissed. It became a Thing. And the location -- in the city, instead of the suburbs -- and the ceremony itself (a Quaker wedding) were complained about loudly by my husband's entire family, who actually had us move up the dessert service so they could leave earlier. They also refused to dance, even though our DJ was really great.
After they left (we're talking like 25 people out of a 75-person wedding) the party, what was left of it, got a lot more fun. But my husbands' heart got a little broken. And I've been nursing a grudge ever since. I should really get over it, I know.

I'm with you on the cupcakes. A well made one is every bit as good as cake, and is perfectly single serve. Also you can decorate in all sorts of cool ways with them. If I had my way, they would be the only form of cake we ate. Or made. Fucking hate making normal cakes. Kudos to you.

That is exactly what I thought. When he finds out that Pat finds whisky to be uncouth then Ramses will have no choice but to lay hands on him.
Also Pat is clearly making a big show of things by taking only ONE roll, most likely in preparation for whining about how hungry he is later.

As for the racism: haven't you heard? Racism is funny now! If Ricky Gervais and Family Guy have taught us anything, it's that it's okay to be racist if you pretend you're laughing at the fact that an insensitive joke was told rather than the joke itself. Nobody's really racist any more, so it's okay! (Seriously though folks, this shit is getting old. You can't keep rolling out the same tired old bigoted fucking bullshit and excuse it on the basis that "we're laughing at the bigots, not with them!")

My vitriol wasn't aimed at Gervais and Family Guy, it was aimed at gladi8orrex. I frequently find his garbled txtspk and hidden messages genuinely funny, but the blak peepl lol shtick is getting seriously fucking old. The subtext - assuming he isn't just a straight-up bigot - seems to be "Don't laugh at what he said, laugh at the fact that he said it." That's not a funny enough joke to justify some of the shit he says. I think a lot of people, some of them professional comedians, use the success of Ricky Gervais and Family Guy to justify some genuinely mean-spirited, offensive shit. You know, the kind of crap that idiot colleagues forward to every email account in the company, apparently thinking that since David Brent or Peter Griffin or Al Murray can say it on TV, racism is acceptable now. But Gervais et al. use racist/bigoted humour in order to tell bigger jokes about bigotry itself (not always successfully; Family Guy in particular seems to use the same "laugh at the fact that he said it" structure a mite too often - like, I know, Peter Griffin is an idiot, you already made that joke). They are not in themselves racist.

But Gervais et al. use racist/bigoted humour in order to tell bigger jokes about bigotry itself (not always successfully; Family Guy in particular seems to use the same "laugh at the fact that he said it" structure a mite too often - like, I know, Peter Griffin is an idiot, you already made that joke). They are not in themselves racist.

The Exile gave the best summary of Family Guy I've read, as its #8 Reason they were Ashamed to be American:
"Seth McFarlane. It isn't just that McFarlane's Family Guy shamelessly plagiarizes from The Simpsons, nor is it just the endless cheap references to bad pop culture icons. Family Guy is much worse and much more evil than that: an anti-Simpsons antidote for zombies who want to get rid of the annoying buzz of vestigial decency in their rotting heads. They want that decency removed, and Family Guy does it non-stop, scene by scene, undoing the unwanted education all those Simpson episodes forced down their throats with a spoonful of sugar. McFarlane's show reinforces their meanest, dumbest instincts. And it's a huge hit."

You know what is amazing? The day the threads after ignored comments NO LONGER interested me enough to unignore.
While it might be true that Gladbags is spoofing the racism, I don't know him. I don't need to give someone the benefit of the doubt continually, and while I might miss the "Roasetered Befez" smiles, I wont miss the shudder as I finally decode what idiocy is hiding in poor grammer.
The biggest difference? Ricky Gervais and some Family Guy is, ya know, um... funny. Changing your schtick from "Undecipherable commentary" to "Racist fuckhead" is not.
I guess I have one thing to thank AIU for teaching me. The ignore option works.

I haven't seen enough Family Guy to comment on it, but the way Ricky Gervais makes racism funny is by expressing it very subtly and making everyone exceedingly uncomfortable about it. He basically plays a guy who doesn't think he's racist but actually is. The American version of the Office fails at this somewhat, because they tend to have people be downright ignorant and offensive. Basically, they have someone mock a ridiculous accent or say "No, don't eat the rice, it has monkey brains in it because Indians eat monkey brains!" They basically make the racism so blatant that it is simultaneously less offensive and less funny.

I'm a veg myself, but under the circumstances -- the meal was prepared entirely by people who have not been on earth for several generations of Galapagos tortoises -- I'd prolly go with whatever I was comfortable with eating.. it's being polite at the wedding of a friend, and only will be just for the one day anyway. Pat is the dick for expecting Molly's already-generous family to provide him with suitable fare. These are people who likely have never even conceived of the idea of veganism.

Whenever I cook up serious food, and blow a sack of money on it, I like to see the veggies take a full plate, with some meat on it. They don't have to eat it, but it's nice to see all the bins empty at the end of the day. I can fool myself into thinking their eyes were bigger than their stomachs, and I bet most cooks can too.

Most vegans eat crap most of the time (the vegan lasagna they serve in pubs and cafes sucks dog arse)and it's nice to see some happiness on their pale faces.

There were in the more primal days, but they were eaten by the ancestors of more successful tribes.
The actual answer is I don't know, but I'm strongly willing to bet there weren't. It almost certainly wouldn't have been a Eurasian group, as they were very strongly tied to domesticated animals. Most domesticatable (sp?) species were wiped out in Australia and the Americas, so there is a tiny chance with those guys. Some strange non-hunting tribe that can't milk anything and just tries it's damnedest to live off gathered berries (hard to farm without animals) and mushrooms. No nuts, because until very recently nearly all nuts were poisonous. Domesticated edible almonds and pecans were only around in the past few centuries. I have no clue how they would get protein. I still but 50 to 1 that there wasn't a seriously vegan culture ever.

I've read that the Yanomamo, although not idealogical vegans, have a diet extremely low in animal proteins, as they moved from nomadic hunting to slash and burn agriculture without either adapting their hunting methods or adopting livestock. Men of low status can go months without any protein other than insects, and they have one of very few languages to differentiate hunger from lack of crops and hunger from lack of meat (I'm getting this from memory of a book I read some time ago so I can't swear to its accuracy).
Also, some new world crops like sump weed, pitseed goosefoot and quinoa (awesome names I feel), had very high levels of protein, which would have made a vegan diet feasible, and almonds were domesticated over 5000 years ago in the Levant.

I forgot about quinoa, it's a magical thing. That would cover a lot of protein content. I still can't imagine a proper vegan diet making it for various minerals in any single part of the world (calcium and iron are tough). A real vegetarian diet is easy to imagine, and I'm sure has historical precedent.
Loneal commenting on Finnegans Wake above make me want to let my pedant out too. Almonds were not domesticated until recently. They were cultivated, and found edible, but domestication involved being about to control breeding and reproduction, which required grafting, which is much younger than 5000 years. There are some methods of leeching out the poison (prussic acid or cyanide, I don't remember which) or you can just roast the fuck outta the nuts. But that isn't domestication.

I've read that one. And yes, they ate it and grew them. He makes the distinction that being able to grow it is not the same as domesticating it. He talks about how long it took to invent grafting techniques, which are required to exert genetic control over trees. Grafting wasn't mastered until around two or three thousand years ago if I remember, and the almond took a while after that to be properly safe for eating.
Diamond's statement in that book was that there was a genetic mutation that allowed for safe almonds, and that people were able to grow them based on planting the safe seeds. That's pretty ignorant of the method of pollination, and he's been called on it. His evidence is mostly the fact that there have been almonds found in Egyption tombs and such since 5000 years ago, which is far from scientifically sound. There is no account of a safe grafting technique from that era, and unless they had a way to absolutely ensure which pollen went to which tree, they couldn't possibly have managed to actually grow domestically.
Underlying message here is not to believe everything in that book. It's a great intro to some deep geography/sociology links, but his methods are debatable even by sociological standards.

Ramses may be overstepping his bounds, but Pat is truly being a dong in the main. This day is not about him, and Teodor and/or Molly's brothers were under no obligation to provide a complete vegan meal for one dude. Pat can suck it up and eat his roll and some buttered vegetables for one day.

He would but they put butter on the vegetables and bacon in the salad, fucking Welsh.
Pat was not eating the meat he was having a roll and was not complaining until Ramses pushed him. Should have just let him eat his roll. Ramses is being a dick. See the dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, ( That's a lot of dicks ) post above.^^^^
This reminds me of when my wife was a veggo and we went to a catered function in country Victoria. The vegetarian option (which was offered on the invite and confirmed via RSVP) was pea and ham soup!

There is nothing worse than ruining a salad by putting goddamn meat in it. It is antithetical to everything salads stand for.

I think it was the cheese that started this saladic slide into meatdom. After all, once you've got cheese in there, why not some meat? It's like the hyphenated Americans thing, once you let a strange ingredient in, the rest want to come in, too.

I'm disagreeing as hard as I can right now. I'm using both hands. One of those tasty bistro frisee salad with baconfat vinaigrette, poached egg and lardons is about the finest thing a salad can aspire to. Any decent French restaurant or bistro will serve them, and you will find Jesus in food when you eat one.

Pat was too a dick! When Ramses pointed out that one roll would be bad for business later on, Pat could have just claimed to not be feeling well. But no, not your boy ol' Patty Cake. He makes a smart-ass remark disparaging the provisions. What else do you expect Ramses to listen to and not respond to on an as-needed basis?

In Pat's defense (and I can't believe I'm defending Pat), Ramses did start picking on him. Pat wasn't complaining until Ramses brought up the subject.

It's a big feast and dude is eating just a single roll. That is gonna get people's attention. Ramses didn't pick on the guy, just axed him a straight-forward question.

I think it's a combination of Pat being extremely pick-on-able, and Ramses being the kind of guy who just can't resist picking on him.

I think Ramses is one helluva cool and tough guy, but that he perhaps gets a bit too much cred. My reasoning is that when we first met him he was telling Ray and Beef that they had absolutely no choice but to finish TGOF with a severe beat down of Beef. He didn't take into account the possibilities Ray saw. "I'll see ONE of you later" were his parting words. Ray's response was "Bring on the goddamn jeeps! Become the ruling body dude!" I'm not saying Ramses isn't cool as ice or worthy of a lot of respect, I just think Ray is the real man.
BTW, since this is my first posting, I want to say that Achewood in its entirety is unbelievably great, but Cartilage Head, The Great Outdoor Fight, and the Phillepe/Transfer Station (which were consecutive, are probably the greatest series of web comics ever. I am a bigtime reader of classic lit., and I swear, those three arcs border on Steinbeck, Woolf, Chekhov talent. That might sound gushing, but I believe it.

Ramses is a monster truck. Ray is a dune buggy. Both have different strengths and weaknesses. Ramses drives over the mountain, Ray find the abandoned train tunnel through it.

I prefer to think that Ramses is a hammer, and Ray is a multi-tool with
- a pair of wire cutters,
- one of those plumber's snake things, and
- a wallet with $600 million in it.

"This family spent their savings..." I read that at first as Roast Beef's family. But Ray was the one who paid for the wedding. Unless RLS means his own family... "Eat up, god damn you, or I'm liable to become personally offended."

They're either tears or Ray managed to somehow acquire harlequin-style makeup within one panel. YOU MAKE THE CALL, READER.
I'm more inclined to go with 'hopeful, prematurely anticipatory sweat' myself.
Alternate hypothesis: Teodor has particularly nimble lice, and a few made the jump mid-panel.
... I find your hypothesis both compelling and chubby.
Nahh.
It's just been raining. On his face.

Ray is, in fact, crying.
Stop yelling at me! A BLOO BLA BLOOO! A BLOO BLOO BLOOOOOOO! BLOO BLOO!
I hope he blubbers in front of Ramses. Jesus Christ, boy.
Do my tears surprise you sir?

Great use of the Mozart requiem, that scene.
I'd say he's just opened his eyes very wide, congruent with the extreme raise in eyebrows.
So he has dimples for his eyes the way people get dimples when they smile?
Oh you do NOT have an advice dog avatar. That is a downright shame.
Whatever man, new memes are nothing to be shunned.
My hypothesis is that Ray is so shocked that his glasses pop up a lil bit and reveal his eyes. . . Or he is crying.
Yeah, that's certainly what it is. If he were crying, there'd be more than one tear each eye . His tear ducts don't hold the fuck back like that, they rip it hard.
Perhaps some of T�odor's filth got on him?

Either that or Ray is just god-awful wall-eyed!
No, they are his eyes. Look at his eyebrows in that panel and the previous one. His eyebrows shot up so far at the sight of Dad, that his glasses rode up too, and exposed his eyes. Ha!
