Beef's catlike pose is a little creepy. Boris' bad password is hilarious though.

You tend to forget that they're cats after a while don't you?

Ray hissing and leaping in the Great Outdoor Fight honestly bewildered me for several minutes. Seriously, it'd be like seeing John Goodman hiss and leap. It says something that the characters completely override their appearance.

Considering how fat John Goodman is these days, I'd be pretty impressed by that sight.

Nwalins will do that to a person.

I thought he did that in The Big Lebowski.

His new password will be "passw0rd"

I'm not sure he's even smart enough to use the zero.

The zero will be an accident caused by him turning to make sure Gregor isn't trying to steal his sandwich.

and since he didn't realize said zero, when he loses his job they are unable to remove his account. boris is forever.

He is een-veen-see-bell!

Chubby for Goldeneye reference.

Nothin' creepy about him actually looking like a cat for a change. I think this is the first time any of the characters were drawn in a "natural" pose. Looks cool.

Actually it makes him look like a superspy.

I thought it made him look all ninja like. All Crouching Beef, Hyddyn Sceptyre. Or Honking Bus, Rusty Bikes, as the case may be.

more like a lizard, i'd say...

I think he looks like an otter.

Boris is not invincible.

i accidentally the internet

Yeah, he acts so human-like, to be reminded that he is a cat is a little... unnerving.

One of the best

Gypsies toss out some pretty weird curses these days. Animals changing passwords? Gay inheritance? Whatever happened to just making a dude really, really thin?

These days, that's more of a potential career in modeling than a curse, really.

"Excuse me, sir?
Thinner with Kurt Lagerfeld."

Sorry, i think its Karl

Stephen King references always necessitate a chubby.

YAHOO! NOT GOOGLE! YAHOO!

Damn, it's true! I need to leave both a Lame and a Chubby at once!

BROWN COUCH! BROWN COUCH! BROWN COUCH! PAY ATTENTION!

Yahoo personals are stored as .txt files in the Chief Security Officer's user directory.

I have a friend who once worked at Yahoo!.
This would really not surprise me at all.

I thinks its the first time you ever see one of the Cats in an actual cat-stance

Nobody does comedy Eastern European accents like Onstad.

Goddang those boys are laughing up a storm in there

I have used this password as a temporary pass. It has replaced qweasd and 8008135.

If they ever remake the movie Hackers I think they'll have to update "Secret, sex and God" to include "5318008"

These Russians choose to speak to each other in broken English for their own reasons. It is their decision.

Never to any of the other Yahoo security officers. Only he has animals changing his password.

Gregor really dodged a bullet on this one.

I think it's Boris that's known for dodging bullets.

Why do they call him the "Bullet-Dodger"?

this was my password for the longest time.

So glad I'm not the only one. Hella solid password if none of your friends read Achewood, though.

I still use this password for things like my laptop because NONE of my roommates read Achewood.

I got as far as "Beef's leet is.." and then though, fuck this, I'm moving on in the archive.

Beef's leet is rather poor; at least he tried.

(Mine is also somewhat substandard. See you later in the archives.)

I'm still pretty fucking shocked that L33t turned out to be a real goddamn thing. I thought it was just something people shouted on Counterstrike in high school.

You were way ahead of me before, but now you're only 21 hours ahead. That means I still have 3 years worth of comics in which I can catch up to you. Creepy? Maybe.

Man, I don't know. Charchar is like a day ahead of me, and you're apparently about a day behing, although you seem to be going at a slightly faster pace, apparently.

It's all confusing but brilliant.

Ugh, you can go ahead and assume I meant "behind" there.

Am I the only one who actually enjoyed seeing Beef in a traditional feline pose for once?

No, I also enjoyed it.

yes. it was uncomfortable to view the anthropoid cat to be doing a thing.

Why this always happens to ME?!

I believe Beef's pose in the first frame is more of a chameleon referencs as opposed to a cat reference.

A few days ago I heard "Livin' at the Corner of Dude and Catastrophe" and decided to see what Achewood was all about, since I'd only seen a few random head scratching strips. I've spent several hours more than is entirely reasonable getting to this point.

"All honking and dragging a bunch of rusty bikes"

I regret nothing.

One of us! One of us!

There's just something that amuses me about the way the nameplate says "Chief Security Yahoo!"
