Oh we doin' this.

I will assume, without reading any further strips, that this is a magical Mexican realism chopper.

Damn, man. It is a bit of a push towards the ridiculous, but there is so much good in it. Plus it is birthed out of the Mexican Magical Realist Product Line, which is pretty much the best idea to have been had by a person.

I just realised it is the face of a luchador.

It's one of my favorites. I really like all the Mexican magical realism strips, in fact.

I can't get enough of Lonis and the whole Mexican Magical realism stuff. The Brothers Syndicate is pretty neat, also. No problems with this arc from me.

Butters is so low-class, but he did inspire a great phrase, "That's such a Hunt's move, dude."

I used this on a lady and got a punch in the face. Thank you, close homophones.

I like how the helicopter has a luchadore mask paint job

That's how you know it's "hencho en Mexico".

It took me quite a while to get that, actually.

Wow! I'd never put those two together. Rad!

Wow! I'd never put those two together. Rad!

It looks a little like StrongBad.

Great, now I can only see the chopper with a big muscly arm superimposed by my brain.

No capitals for AKKOLADE this time around.

Ray's line in the second panel gives this a 5

When Ray and Butters are together their playa-speak intensifies to dangerous levels.

cognac large. that is serious radioactive playa right there

Who else was eagerly awaiting Roast Beef saying "Man R2 aint got no teleport beam, how you gonna say that.."

paNE L 3

Man what is with Butters' arm in panel 3?

it is perspective.

alt-text:Commence Internet whining about how teleporters really work.

Unforch, there is wacky html-junk in the alt-text.

I think the html-junk is all sayin' that the really is italicized.

Actually, “ and ” are the open-quote and close-quote, respectively. How teleporters "really" work.

Well, they didn't have a teleporter of any sort in Star Wars, but in Star Trek, you couldn't really get into a teleport beam because it was moving through, I dunno, subspace or some crap. Shields would stop it though.

The Fly.

That'd be my best bet... strangely enough.

who calls a player in the tub

the guy who does not know that the player is in the tub

how could he

I don't see why ray bitches, he calls from the tub all the time. Did you take my laundry?

it's different when you become the callee.

Anybody who prefers Hunt's to Heinz is just no good, I tell you. Present company excluded.

Ray, don't act like you don't cold own Airwolf. It is faster than any jet. Why the quality time with Butters?

Four dollars a gallon, yo. Just cos Ray lives large don't make him eco-stupid .

He's just playing along, cold waiting for the opportune moment to make Butters look ridiculous to the Syndicate as revenge for the Magreaux dog.

The cockpit windows looks suspiciously like those in Todd's van.

Let's all just pretend I didn't put an 's' at the end of the word "look." There, that's better.

the water in the tub had this weird effect on me of being solid and geometric because it meets ray with a straight line.

a Jello bath. or like those baths from that pretty regrettable 'did i just spend eighteen dollars on this' movie Wanted .

...though some bits were sorta funny. (the ATM's questions and the Keyboard Whack Spell-It)

Ray's insult implies that he would be getting mad rutty with Butters' mom, if only both her eyes had worked. And that's great.

I would totally take a ride in the Luchacopter.

but i would only eat in the Lunchacopter.

fuselage all an eggshell...bacon for propellers.

butters is left-handed

The third panel is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my entire life.
