I saw an old, beat up Subaru Brat several months ago! License plate was 'FURRY'. There was a dog paw print medallion hanging from the mirror, and some dorky-ass guy driving it, so it was indeed *that* kind of furry.
I thought of this very strip, and it got just a little more appropriate.

I used to tour guide at Johnson Space Center in Houston. There was always a Subaru Brat parked right outside the building with the giant Space Shuttle mock-ups they use to train astronauts. NASA's feng shui is screwed.

I saw an old Subaru
And when it came near
I saw the license plate said "FURRY" and it had a dog paw print medallion on the mirror
If anything I can say that this Brat was rare
But I thought Nah forget it
Yo homes to Bel Air

It happens less rarely when you re-read them. It was more rare first time round because there was more than thirty seconds between each strip, and that rarity works. Going back over them now, though, it does seem to happen a little too much.

I definitely get bothered. You start to wonder bout all sorts of stuff. If they're just actors, and Ray getting rich by selling his soul was a 'storyline' then is Ray still the rich playa that we know him as today? It's the most confusing thing about Achewood to me, but that's when I decide to stop thinking about it so much and just laugh and enjoy those jokes. What the hell people

My thoughts exactly. If they are just actors, it is not as good, or at least not the same.
I comfort myself by pretending that the actors are in fact the regular characters PLAYING actors playing themselves! I mean, I don't think Chris Onstad minds too much if I do that.

Def. stop thinking about it. This was a time in which Onstad was playing around with the comic being such as a TV show or film...you can see it also in the strip where Paul F. Weisz is credited as the ice cream shop manager. It is just some fun that the author has in order to move things along.

Agreed. Sorry to sound like a prick, but do all you guys read comic books and actually care about this kind of shit?
These type of strips always remind me of Bloom County, like the strip where the "cast" gets tested for anabolic steroids. Fictional integrity and continuity were not major concerns of mine while reading Bloom County as a kid; I maintain that same outlook when I read Achewood.

Fun fact! The alt text says that "It has the rear-facing seats in the bed STOCK"--but why? Because the tax laws then in effect allowed Subaru to classify the Brat as a passenger car instead of a truck if they welded in the rear seats, and therefore to pay a 2.5% instead of a 25% tariff.
