My old roommate was from Wisconsin and just got a job in Chicago with a bunch of FIBs. When his coworkers found out where he was from, they got all cold, and one said, "We know what you call us."

I'm more familiar with the variant "FIP." I get a kick out of my Indiana friends calling people from Chicago FIPs and my Chicago relatives calling Indiana people FIPs.
Michigan ain't much better, though, but at least we've got like fudge and hands for maps and shit.

For next year's Very Special Episode, Lyle will not get drunk and do potty on Philippe's book about Cunty, punch Philippe in the stomach, or even tell him to shove it. The first item is really self-serving, as that book is now Lyle's main source of income, but the other two are genuinely nice gestures.
Cornelius, on the other hand, will still scold Philippe inappropriately.

Well, to speak the other side (not that I necessarily represent this side, I'm being objective here), you are saying it's not good enough because it has reverted back to a style we all loved when we first came across it. That's valid but really nitpicky. The other nitpicky point-of-view is that this comic never does that SOOO WACKY joke any longer. So how can one win? You can't both be right. But you can probably both be wrong. (note, the SO WAAAACKYYYYY comic got a 4.7 so)

Sniff is the sound it makes when he is regular-snorting. SNFFFFFFZZ is the sound it makes when his nose is in contact with whatever the cocaine happens to be laid on. You can also notice that Todd was power-snorting in the second strip, as the cocaine is flying to his nose from at least one inch away.

Panel 6 is my favorite single Achewood panel ever. There's a ton of close seconds, but that one is king.

WOW. Add not doing cocaine as a top-ranking last-minute gift idea! Don't have time to do shopping? No problem! Run around sniffing salt for a few panels, then pop out of a box and yell "SURPRISE! I'M NOT HIGH!"

Philippe asks Liebot once again: "What is the saddest thing?"
Liebot is silent for some moments... not even asking the question any more... before he starts.
"Ray is going to enter the room half an hour from now, quite drunk, and shall ask you: What do you want to be when you grow up? But you are never going to grow up, so you shall become very upset.
Ray will then take you out to the theme park in order to cheer you up, and only then will you find out that you are too short to go on any of the rides. Forever."

How does Onstad come up with a billion great comic ideas? It's not even a weekly webcomic! It's almost every day! I mean, almost every strip has something quotable, there are almost too much catchy phrases. and it takes a great amount of human truth and agility of language to create a catchy phrase. And Onstad does it EVERY DAY. Wha... how?

I don't know if the ease with which Philippe is delighted is endearing or depressing.
Still love the kid, though.
Endearing I'd say. The only way it could become depressing is if you're mourning your own dead child as you watch someone else's very alive child become delighted.
