work HARD

If a Chinese lady calls you before she does this she is among the sanest of Chinese ladies. DO NOT LET HER GO

Not just death - INCREDIBLE DEATH.

IN THIS STATE

"That is terrible" makes the strip.

And that's terrible.

Sir, you have brought back many happy memories!

For something to be as many as four tens is pretty terrible.

And also no less than four tens.

Fun fact: I'm the second registered user on the Superdickery Forums after the site's creator.

Just putting that out there if I haven't already.

absolutely.

It is totally okay to two-time gentlemen according to the bible.

just not to double-team them.

The Lord does not appreciate two-timing ladies, but he knows dudes are jerks so they deserve to be two-timed.

Philippe's running shot in panel seven is impossibly cute.

yeah, well.

this is funny not lame! you are rad cailetshadow! you...are...rad!

How Philippe answers the phone is classic

It's reminiscent of his greeting to Teodor at the party where he met Ultra Peanut. Rehearsed, polite, and incredibly adorable.

he still has the picture she drew!

yes, the very same

Dudes, you see two 5-years olds take their clothes off and immediately assume they boned?

That is terrible.

A five year old otter is definitely bone-ready.

"No, you can't touch mine. You already broke yours off."

I think she was trying to say she wanted it doggy style.

INCREDIBLE DEATH might be the ultimate band name

I'm pretty sure when the children of GWAR grow up, they will form a band called INCREDIBLE DEATH. I am actually very sure of that fact.

Actually "Children of GWAR" is already a pretty good band name.

Their cover of the Muppet Babies theme song is twisted

where can i find this?

Pretty much the best ever, really.

[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdbDNL5oqCs]The Children of Gwar[/url won the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006. Their parents are not so pleased.

How about this

I wanna see some Incredible Death.

I am imagining that it looks a lot like how the marines die in Starcraft.

incredible

But Phillipe, Petunia will be dead soon anyways.

Why does Ultra Peanut have trouble with L's? Isn't that a Japanese problem, not Chinese?

HIS WIFE IS CHINESE AND SHE WROTE THIS STRIP.

5 for the alt text.

I repeat both lines from the final panel on a frequent basis. But even established Achewood readers invariably give me funny looks when I do so.

That's the part when I become disappointed in them.

Every time I see Philippe begin to descend into "the fear," I cannot help but laugh until I bgin to cry. It is beautiful.

Thou shalt hate the playa, regardless of his game.

Phillipe's guilt ballons are hilarious, because we all have them, but seldom admit it.

"Balloons" of course.

INCREDIBLE DEATH by ASTONISHING MALADY

I used to have a roommate from Hong Kong. The "Yes ok uh huh ok yes bye" is a common Chinese thing.

My favorite strip. :)

This strip answers a question that nagged me all along... the pronunciation of Philippe's name. I wasn't sure if it was all French "fee-leep" or Spanish "fee-lee-pay." Unless Ultra Peanut is pronouncing it wrong... well, more wrong than just the r/l thing... now I know.

Not to be an Internet pedant, but in Spanish it's spelled "Felipe" and pronounced "feh-lee-pay", so you didn't have to wonder.

From one internet pedant to another, I thank you.

Yeah see, where English and French have etymological spelling, where "ph" designates a Greek phi, Spanish has almost entirely phonetic spelling, so you'll only see Fs there.

I still can't wrap my head around 'fee-leep'. It just sounds so wrong after hearing it as 'feh-lee-pay' for so long.

If there is ever an Achewood cartoon, my head will go crazy whenever Philippe appears.

I love the way Phillipe always rushes everywhere.

Is Urrtra Peanut!

More penalties need to be "Incredible death."

Onstad's Chinese is such a racist.

His wife, his Chinese wife, his wee Chinese wife.

I love how Phillipe's thoughts are accented by his carefully chosen fonts.

THAT IS TERRIBLE, but at least your death will be INCREDIBLE

I had to say "Urrtra" out loud about six times. I HAD to.
