That's exactly the kind of in-flight movie I'd expect on Todd airlines.

Todd is one sick fuck.

If he was a truly sick fuck it's be a from the Guinea Pig series. But Todd is not that classy. That is straight up hardcore International sick fuckery. It shows a certain degree of commitment to the cause.

Ideally it is a bootleg VHS. That is how we know that he is serious.

Watched Chiniku no Hana out of morbid curiosity once. Ugh. All I can say is it's comforting to know that it's not real.

include a few episodes of Jenny Jones and you've got my dream den

I think my favorite part of any Achewood strip is the description of what Ray (and sometimes others) does when he wants to chill out. Some day I want to be able to come home from work and just spontaneously come up with something like panel 6 and then make it happen. These guys are the kings of chilling out.

It helps to have shitloads of money.

Not necessarily. I know this hippie house in Berkeley who collectively bought a hot tub. I'm positive somebody there could hook you up with the weed.

Nudity is mandatory, though. Just warning you.

If collectivism means having a jacuzzi, sign me up.

It usually doesn't.

Metaphorically.

I bet that hippie hot tub looks like boiling compost stew and smells like six asses.

Seven, if none of them are particularly fat.

They're hippies, man! You know they are not.

One Saturday I pan fried tiny strips of wild duck, washed it down with a bottle of wine, came in 2nd out of 18 in a poker tournament, then drank three milkshakes watching Apocalypse Now.

Helluva evening.

Lyle was really going to go look at cathedrals??

Only because I imagine Teodor is making him. I'd say the chances of him going on to spike the holy water are fairly high.

What would be the point of that? You don't drink holy water, do you?

It would be silly to spike it and not drink it!

Wow!!! MAn!! That's edgy! ! !!!!!! Whoa!!! !!

That was somewhat uncalled for. It ain't all that original, but let the man post.

Man, why you gotta be a cock to a stranger?

Seems kind of mean to pee in holy water too though.
(dude they sprinkle that stuff on each other!)

When I was younger and still Catholic I used to always freak out about the holy water. I mean, think about it, the whole damn congregation sticks their hands in it to do the signs of the cross. A whole churchload of unwashed hands, covered with germs and mucus and sin.

I humbly submit, Reasons Lyle Would Visit A Cathedral

[1] Swapping the Communion wine with Thunderbird
[2] His pot muchies demanded tiny cardboardy wafers
[3] He needed to take a photo for his metal band's new CD

"The next time he got the chance," i.e. the next time he happened to be in a library that had books with pictures of cathedrals.

i.e. never

Note that the plane has the same windows as Todd's van.

I can only imagine what Todd had to suck to buy that plane.

CLITS

I thought it would be more along the lines of SIX ASSES

id do that for free.

Dinner is some pizzas

shit. i didn't even see that. dammit.

Sympathy chubby.

dinner is some pizzas.

Imagine my utter bewilderment upon coming across this strip while burnin' one and listening to The Police. Crazy.

Ray for a day, man. Ray for a day.

The GG Allen Video is the one where he takes a shit on stage, wipes some on his chest and throws the rest at the audience after telling them he's going to kill himself on Halloween.

I know because that's every GG Allen Video.

Pass.

Oh damnit, before the last line I was going to reply "That's every GG Allin video". Well played.

There are men in this world that would rather harm their own mother than watch a GG Allin concert.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that Checkpoint Charlie and the Berlin Wall is a pretty excellent name for a band.

No, you are right, sir.

Toddair Is G.G Allins prefered carrier

the european man from vidal sassoon used to give me nightmares.

I bet Ray washes his hair like, four times every time he takes a shower.

despite being covered head-to-toe in hair, he chooses to wash only the top of his head with shampoo

Makes sense. I don't shampoo my beard, armpits or crotch.

You're obviously not French or Italian then.

The beginning strip of this arc begins with "Aww frick yeah" and this, the last strip of the arc, begins with "aww yeah".

for some reason i found FWSSSSSSSSSSH really very funny. It's just... it's just the noise a shower makes .

It would be kinda tough to burn one in a hot tube if you had the bubbles on. But to be honest I've never tried it.

Not really, you'd only really have to sit up until you finished sucking it down, then lay back and possibly pass out or something.

I had the previlege of catching Checkpoint Charlie and the Berlin Wall live in Jersey back in '89. Now that was a rock show
