These lames are now sort of like Chubbies, since you brought them crashing down on yourself, they are lames of honor.

Comic sans is shit. What's wrong with that?

Yes, this is what the slobbering masses fail to comprehend. Fortunately, the most recent strips (as of posting time) have been pretty solid in terms of laughs contained within the actual strip that I can send to my non-Achewood-reading friends (yes, imagine such people exist!)

Achilles' Elbow, you're a good guy. But when a young man in a Rick Deckard haircut and a soul patch starts telling me of the slobbering masses of the Intarwebs, I just burst into uncontrollable giggles. I'm sure you understand.

Dude, comic sans is the lamest font ever designed by a nerd anywhere. I still don't think they beat that guy's ass hard enough. A chubby for you for your stance!

I believe he meant that the strip in which they beat up the man who invented Comic Sans was a bad Achewood strip.

The internet is serious business!

Well we can't let any old rubbish gum up the tubes now can we.

hahahahahahaha jesus christ remember when that guy said tubes??

to describe the internet

has everyone heard of this? let me just reference it

Yes, we know. Interwebs, the tubes. What will those senators think of next?

"The internet is NOT a dump truck. It's... a series of tubes."

the internet is a diaper.

People just lame you for any old shit these days.

I'm sorry I had to lame that even though I didn't mean it. I just had to. I'm so sorry.

Gonna make an effort to be a positive role model here

You will lookbat these two posts a year from now and know why.

...also, you're taking getting lamed on a comic messageboard personally.
Wait 'til you see how you feel about that one in a year.

Go ahead dude, take the rest of the day off.

I was gonna swoop in all sweet saying I think that there is an error in the alt-text. I thought Chris meant to pen "clamor", but instead I learned a new word. Me for learning, and you for sharing! Magical.

You're doing the world a great service, friend. Do not be shamed by your actions, embrace them!

Also, like, I didn't know what the alt text was before your post, so like, thanks.

have you tried...beers?

this...weekend i got...mad rutty

An Achewood in the old style. I hope it isn't curbed.

You've never even watched that show, have you?

It reminds me of that YouTube "bro rape" video...but better.

Ray and Teo's relationship has developed to the point where he doesn't even need to hear Teo say, "What the fucking fuck?" to know he needs to explain himself.

I'm glad to see more of Teodor, but there are parts of him I could see less of. His legs. They weren't always little black sticks . Less freaky deer leg, more freakin' cranberry dingus!

I agree; Theodor has horrible little medieval minstrel's legs, like somebody that should be prancing lewdly to the musicke of ye sackbutte ynd ye lute.

I think that his legs are the same size as they've always been, but from this distance, in black...leg coverings...and in comparison to his...pantaloons...they look like sticks.

Fear not!

yeah man, it's all perspective. He's keeping with artistic integrity and junk.

From my perspective, Teodor had more integrity back in the day when he used to show us his junk. Freedom, man! Now it's "Graphic Design - In About An Hour!" Still wearing that sweater from some female he never met. Little spindle legs in stockings and poofy minstrel pants. Those things go together somehow.

Wait, I'm sorry, it's not Fuck You Friday. Well, I'm Fucked Monday will just have to be good enough.

This one scores high marks simply for its title.

As a teenager, I would take offence if it wasn't SO VERY true

Those mannequins are so realistic. Next they will talk about the coed they both slept on accident.

Brah. "That totally sucks, brah ".
I hope this one's going somewhere.

cool story, bro

This is probably the setup for something bigger.

IT ... MUST HAVE BEEN ... ALL THE EXCITEMENT ... FROM PLAYING TOUCH FOOTBALL IN THE SNOW ... WITH THE GUYS ... WEARING ONLY ... OUR 100% EGYPTIAN COMBED COTTON BRIEFS ... BRAH

who the hell plays touch football in the snow? the whole point of snow football is that it doesn't hurt as much when you get slammed into the ground!

No, the whole point of snow football is that the bracing cold makes manly nipples stand to attention on sculpted pecs. TEN ...... HUT!

Onstad got the idea for this strip from an acid flashback.

My first thought when Theodor taps Ray is that he thinks that Ray is himself an ultra realistic mannequin and is testing to see if. Which makes NO sense, since Ray hasn't told him what's going on yet. But who would look for sense in such a surreal strip as this? Unless they were a horribly hung-over teacher in an over-heated room; then he might start seeking for reverse logic in a cartoon.

Plus, those frat-boy mannequins should start comparing abs. Dude, CUT!

Nah, I'm pretty sure he knows Ray is just lost in thought, and needs to be reminded that T has no fucking clue what he's talking about.

The ones for Hot Topic take their speech samples from a random subset of LJ entries.

Awesome, brah.

I got kicked out for not being white.

This makes somehow less than zero sense.

It does not make less than zero sense. Look at A&F's catalog sometime and visit one of their stores. You will not find racial diversity therein.

I work with both of those mannequin guys and they're the same guy.

except with the real guys, you have to see their puka shell necklace and frosted tips sticking out from beneath a white baseball cap with a pre-thrashed brim, cocked ever so slightly sideways up top and the cargo shorts/sandal combo on the bottom.

Yea, I know I for one would definitely rather have two mannequins sitting behind me in Biology 1010 than the real thing. It's impossible to pay attention in that class, let alone with two morons going on about their frat party......Bla.

You pretty much nailed it.

what are the ellipses representative of?

electronic delay? hangover? pauses for tension?

they represent teenagers

I don't think teenagers can be expressed through punctuation.

I would be a semicolon; I just connect all these independent clauses; after a while sometimes they go to strange and wonderful places; one must be wary of sharks in these lands; Iceland is known for its sharks; sharks don't love you back; you are food.

represent

:-o

I can't believe the rating is so low, i havn't laughed that loud at achewood in a long time. I guess I hate Bro's more than most people.

I'm with you, mister pants. Bro's are one of the primary scourges of modern society. I also like your avatar. Have a chubby.

Mannequins are the only thing in AF wearing shirts. Judging by the models alone you'd think AF only sold chest oil.

i don't get this one. so he's investing in talking fraternal mannequin torsos? i can't see the money in that

Have you never seen the average patron at such as Abercrombie or American Eagle or Aeropostale? Like honey to bears, these talking fratboy mannequins would be.

I think the average Abercrombie patron would probably talk back to the mannequins for a while. Whole conversations with plastic men.

"Did you go to the ... pika party brah?"
"I... nailed some theta slut... and fuckin'... ralphed in her shoes, man!"
"Right... on."

Fucking awesome

when at the mall, i always jump into the entry way of A&F and dance like a moron to the techno jams they are always hella blastin'.

...and whoever i'm with always keeps walking.
