it's pretty obvious from the way he drinks whiskey (pounding it until his stomach reaches capacity)

"Heh, Classic Lyle"

Man lamed for homophobia what douches these lamers are. You are clearly not a homophobic dogg based on what I have seen of you. Have a gay stamp of approval.

a... mushroom stamp?

The funny thing is, Lyle doesn't slow himself or anything. Two other characters get suckered into loving this fake blacksmith, Lyle seeks to make the guy hate life.

That's simply who Lyle is.

peperoni and chease

hee hee! oh, hee hee!

this is what me and my friends wrote on our tombstones. oh we were truly the Limit. hats off to us for that spectacular joke.

Lyle is not above a little same-sex flirtation if it means he can get his drink on. Gotta feed the monkey, man.

A comment left by vreeeee was marked as spam and excluded. vreeeee: What a douche. (reported by jstegall, mortshire, Zem)

I especially love the fact that he has been doing that for hours. I would have pissed myself laughing by the time I got to that point!

What makes you think Lyle hasn't?

Lyle pissed himself breathing .

As the alt text says, Lyle and Hiram are playing different games. Based on the next comic, I'm not sure why the programmer wrote this part into his module. Maybe his first meeting with Hiram went something like Lyle's?

Lyle still punishes at this game.

The last panel upsets me. It sounds like certain shock site images. Someone somewhere somehow is getting off to that thought.

that game really was all things to all people

Lyle bends Oregon Trail to his will

Lyle does this to everything he touches.

Lyle plays a mean Oregon Trail.

i like how digital lyle AND real lyle BOTH cackle maniacally as the vomit shoots several feet into the air and lands on his face.

Yarrrrrrrp

Lyle is the hero I hope to never meet.

this is my favorite strip.

I think Lyle just won the game. I mean, actually won it, not just ended up in some boondocks place where you have to fight off bears using only a leftover wagon axle.

On that note, I just lost The Game.

Yeah, so did I, dammit! I was winning for a month or so there.

Gah I have no recollection of writing this comment and it was a real shock to scroll down and see my own face looking at me.

Eeek.

well now a tiny otter is puffing up for a hug, so... get ready for that one.

Fortunately, other people losing The Game doesn't cause you to lose The Game. Instead, I expect to lose The Game sometime tomorrow morning.

That's more like a video game version of Lyle's life.

lyle is my boy

The best part is the last pannel, where Lyle has his cheek on his hand, and is laughing. Not at ammusement over his antics in the game, but over fond rememberance of when he did this for real three nights ago.

Lyle fucking rules.

Ha ha!

>:3

That's so Lyle.

I believe this is the first strip where Lyle's mustache is more than a simple axehead.

This is how Lyle WINS at Oregon Trail.

Lyle has disappointed Hyram, and in a way, this makes me feel sad.

Lyle will even drink digital whiskey to excess. That's hell of cool.
