Pannel 4 is a very nice action movie layout.

Reminds me of the opener to Harvey Birdman.

reminds me to the opening of Peel Out Summer

OF the...in my defense, I am Russian.

(i am not russian.)

Look at the strip, then click "next" without taking your eyes off of it. The effect quite surprised me.

Dude! That was awesome! Have a chubby, on the house.

Agnes is standing on it.

Subject of Achewoodian one-liner: "Stand on it Agnes"

Now, let me get this straight...

Reason bixschmix is bent: "Stand on it Agnes"

Oh fuck

Richard Nixon: "Stand on it, Agnew"

first strip i ever read

SCREEEEEEEEEE!

i'll give you a chubby for your onomatopoeia.

awesome.

C'mon, you ain't drivin'! Put yo' foot in tha tank!

I'm reminded of Grindhouse: Death Proof, which wouldn't have been released for almost 5 more years...

Beef was certain they were going to be arrested. He just hoped it wouldn't be so soon.

why 425 horsepower? Previously Beef says it has the cammer 427, with 657 BHP.

ray is not a cat like beef who appreciates the finer points of such like geometry and machine languages and numbers over one hundred. he rounds everything off to the nearest five and doesn't even know he does it. it is seriously not a thing, it never even comes up.

we already arrested

Cold sit on it ho.

Agnes ain't no ho. She stands like a lady.

it looks like he is shaking maracas.

I wouldn't have even noticed if I didn't read your comment. Dangit, now everytime I look at this I'm just gonna hear maracas in my head. And maybe Ray going "ARRRRIBA!"

Yesterday, in the car, I said to my Mother.

"SO STAND ON IT, AGNES."

She laughed, she understood.

That is fantastic.

lawl. that's great

i very immediately disapprove of spelling an acronym phonetically.

lawl. fuck you, man. fuck you, lawl.

FUCK the INTERNET

i confess, it is a sketchy arena of netiquette that i dabble in.

Dude he added a southern drawl. How Achewood is that. It is taking the INTERNET by the EARS and shaking it until the cool thing to type into it falls out.

See, now, cause I really liked it...

This was the first Achewood line I ever used in real life. I worked it pretty naturally into the conversation, too. She laughed so hard, she swerved onto the wrong side of the road (California One, not a good thing). She laughed so long I started to get a little upset at how much funnier Chris Onstad is than me.

telescoping limbs?

Agnes has become my go-to phrase for calling out my best compadres lack of balls :)

The start of the greatest story arc in Achewood history (in my opinion, which is of no use to you, as I am but a simple beet farmer).

Can you get Coke to start using some of your product instead of the interminable nasty corn?

I can't believe Coke is fucked in its home country. High fructose corn syrup is a terrifying entity.

What is wrong with sugar?

It's a complete fricking mystery to me.

Luckily there are some places (such as a few authentic Mexican eateries) that carry the cane sugar variant...the problem lies in govt. subsidies and big corn (and ethanol production, by proxy)...alas, these things are of the daily fare for this Nebraskan to worry about :(

Even Beef's all-caps battle cry doesn't go beyond the tiny, timid font. That's the kind of emotional detail most popular programming simply fails to consider.

Stand on it, Agnes is my favourite thing to say to people when I'm trying not to say MOVE YOUR ASS ALREADY. I love that line.

Someone should give them a notice that their car is frikkin' awesome.

It warms my heart whenever Beef laughs.

Just all DRIP.

You aren't arrested if they can't get the cuffs on you.

Right at panel 5 a siren went by my house! I looked out the window, but I couldn't see Ray and Beef. Oh, well.

This is one of my favorite arcs, culminating in the curb-side rap.

They should have brought Phillipe, he is good at standing on it.

"UN-LEASH!" would be the BOMB t-shirt.
