Philippe was left alone in the house while the boys went out on the town. Unfortunately, he got a little rambunctious (possibly on the ol' not-water-juice) and apparently got into Lyle's supply of AMC Movie Nachos, from when he was working the snack stand, and also found what appears to be a magic marker. The question is, did he sniff that magic marker to get high, or merely write a profanity, truncated due to space? I think most of us learn the spatial requirements of the word "Fuck" around the time of middle school marble notebooks, but apparently Philippe's disillusionment is a bit more rapid. I hope that this has been of assistance to you.

Lyle, Cornelius and Vlad(?) can be seen in silhouette at the same bar as Beef and Ray. I don't see Teodor and I suspect he is home, absorbed with his computer (work or pleasure), and not giving Philippe any attention.

I have an alternate explanation. May not be more or less right than sncether's, but it's the way I read it.
Philippe has indeed been left alone in the house, but he hasn't realized this yet. The fact that he is coming through a door from the right in Panel 3 and speaking from the right of Panel 6 makes me believe that he is walking in on the detritus of the pre-party held by the boys before they left for the strip club.
The contrast is between the special future that Philippe believes awaits him and the dirty reality that really does. He is about to be reminded that he is not the center of the universe, not even the center of his little household who have all abandoned him for the evening. His lofty dreams of a sparkling Disneyland will soon be replaced by the base yearnings for any form of escape from the demands of adult life, those same yearnings that have taken hold of his companions.
I made myself sad.

Do you know, I believe you may be right. Not because of Philippe's entrance and exit points, but mostly because of the magic marker and Roast Beef's Groucho Marx-face (although I originally took those for prosthetics). It's the bloody glove, Philippe is the victim, and Harper's 27 Women is the white Ford Bronco. I think we will have to stay tuned for the next strip to find out who the Real Killers are. Or maybe we'll just get a return of the golf blog instead, to really keep the analogy going.

I can't help but notice a prevalent theme of loss of innocence in Achewood lately. One of the things I love about Achewood is it's emotional range - in addition to being funny, it can also be mysterious, surreal, darkly funny, and down right depressing at times. Truly, it is not a comic for the faint of heart!
Then again, this strip does seem to offer a little consolation - sure, the contrast of the grownup's (are cats and stuffed animals grownups?) sleazy Friday night debauchery against Phillipe's bright and innocent dreams is a little disheartening... but, a future that allows for the opportunity of turning oneself into Groucho Marx on a drunken whim isn't all that bad of a future at all! Perhaps, rather than seeing a sobering contrast between Phillipe's imagined special future and the dirty reality that actually awaits him, we're really seeing more of a mapping from childlike delight in the unattainable prospect of a trip to Disney world to the easily attained grownup delight in... um... getting puzzled on some brews at a strip club.
Oh dang, I just made myself sad, too.

Huuuuugs all around. You can't be truly sad when reading a Phillipe strip. Still, your analysis makes a great deal of sense. Phillipe's pain in this strip is caused by his isolation, caused by his lack of worldly urges. Ray's and Beef's pain is caused by their worldly urges. Pain, regret, and death are what await us all.

two, when the dogg is his birthday?

seven, which is after six.

He has been Five for the entire run of the strip, hasn't he? And Five for an undetermined period of time before that. He may well be around Seven or Eight by the time Beef becomes Groucho Marx in the big club bathroom in the sky.

in very, very small subtext below the original story of Creation in Genesis, it speaks of how God made Philippe Five before anything else and for a time, it was Good. then God decided to make the Earth for Philippe to Enjoy and then said He wasn't "going to be selfish" and chose to make Man such as to share Philippe with.

Philippe's birthday is August 22nd.
I know this because it is also the birthday of my ex-boyfriend. Like Philippe, he had a birthday every year, but never got any older.

I think the whole spirit of this strip is about how men never change. No matter how old you get as a man, all you want to do is walk around and do and say whatever crazy pointless shit you want and also it is ok to throw your trash on the ground.

Try hitting ESC to freeze the GIF, then take out your calipers and measure each side on four axes. Repeat this exercise a few dozen times to reduce the impact of errors in measurement and the particular point at which you froze the GIF. Report back with 3-page analysis by Thursday.

Man, at first I thought Harpers' was advertising "Dangers," not "Dancers." To me, if a bar has pool, liquor, and dangers, then it seems likely that there will be one or two individuals of the vaginal persuasion there as well, though probably not the sort you can discuss Gaugin with, I'd say.
Dangers would include that cool knife trick Bishop does from Aliens and bobbing for apples except its out of a flaming trash can, not to mention an amateur and spontaneous bout of tattooing.

The worst thing about the "ignore user" feature is that it doesn't completely erase their comments from existence, it just greys them out - thus highlighting them even more and just making me curious to see the car wreck I know awaits. Its like the temptation to scroll below any youtube video and view the idiocy that lies beneath.
Of course I don't have to click on it, but I just can't resist you know - it's exactly the same with comments that have been lamed to oblivion. I need something more effective, more permanent here.

My local 20-screener used to be obvious about this kind of shit. They would regularly just have black garbarge bags filled with popcorn (cooked the night before... maybe ) in the area by the poppers where, you know, you expect fresh popcorn to be sitting. It was stale and flavorless, and you couldn't even mask it with "butter" since they'd barely put any on it when you asked. And this is the most popular cinema in the immediate area.
They probably still do this; I just don't go to this theatre anymore.

The packages in the mail are easily explained, too. He hitchhikes to another town (his willingness to ride with Nice Pete in the Ice Cream Shop story arc was not a one-time mistake) and mails gifts to himself. That is the saddest thing.

Man, I love this strip. This is the kind of humor that got me into Achewood, indirect, totally character based. And I can see its leading into another "Phillipe has been left alone and will soon cause hilarious problems, likely involving him getting lost" arc, which are always good.

I agree. The sadness comes from the juxtaposition of childlike innocence with harsh reality. The innocents (Phillipe, the retarded man) conceive the world as a happy place, where broken eggs get better and that everybody values the child's happiness, and the unnerving sadness relies on the reader's knowledge that those things aren't necessarily so.

This is exactly right. This is why this strip is so sad. Also a bit maudlin, but the more I read it, the more I like it. Voted 5 for the best non-funny strip.
As an aside, I think this strip is way sadder if you are a parent yourself. I think it reflects the way people think when they see their kids getting older. So many times someone puts their own needs ahead of the kids (like putting on a movie instead of playing with the kid, or going out and leaving them with a babysitter.) Then you realize the number of days when they are excited to see you and play with you are limited--and you've wasted so many already.

I appreciate your unique perspective, but calling this "the best non-funny strip" makes me want to ask you, with no malice or asshole smirk of any kind, if you've read through everything. If by some chance you haven't, try out this and this . Not to say that they're necessarily "non-funny," but that the humor kind of flits around the edges of a larger territory.
This one's decent, but I'm not about to stand up and defend it. Suffice it to say that it's the first time I've dipped below a 4 in a couple of weeks.

this is not a bad strip. not at all. in fact, everyone struggling to decipher it only makes it better. the best art is never too literal- so why should onstad have to treat us like children? did cartilage head make perfect sense? or ever get a thorough explanation? no, so what exactly warrants giving this strip a low score?
i actually think this strip has a lot of meaning. my interpretation: onstad is contrasting the dreams of both children and grown men, to see what we wanted then and what we want now. philippe thinks he is old enough to go to disney land. the age of innocence. whereas any other achewood character considers a strip club to be their own disney land. at the same time, both beef and philippe are shown to share the same childlike innocence, though philippe has still yet to be corrupted by age. and i think the question is posed: what dreams came true?

I'm biting my lip. So hard. But I feel like I was overly harsh the second time (of three) you told everyone this, so I'm just gonna chill.
Seriously, though - get rid of her. If you've taken her for a serious tour of the essential strips (and that's a big IF ) and she still finds this comic merely "cute," there's a real problem, there. I mean, on a deeper level than comics.
It's like the girl I was dating a long time ago who couldn't "get" Rushmore. I mean, yeah, it's just a movie. But it's such a basic sort of thing to "get." Not being able to kinda really indicated something deeply unsettling to me.
People who like comics like Cyanide and Happiness will never stick around long. They have no attention span. Appreciation of character development and the general sense of patience which a comic like this sometimes demands is not a quality to be taken lightly.
On the other hand, you're a goddamned teenager. Bone away. But stop telling us about it. It's lame. Or whatever.

Not everyone will appreciate Achewood. And it's pointless to try and make someone like something when they just don't get it. I've had friends who used to try to make me love the object of their fandom as much as they did, and it just doesn't work, no matter how good the sex is.
That said, Cyanide And Happiness is not exactly a sophisticated strip. It's more of a vodka cooler, enjoyed by teenagers and soforth, whereas Achewood would be more like a nice Cabernet Sauvignon. One must develop a taste for it over time. It's complex, something to be enjoyed on many levels, and especially good with robust meat dishes.
However, if you post about having sex with your teenaged girlfriend any more, I will be forced to tell you what it's like to be on a Klondike streak. And believe me, it's boring.

Well, he's seventeen. If you find your soulmate at the age of seventeen, you are in the minority. And if you were a completely mature and adult person at seventeen, you're in an even smaller minority.
Besides, he's said in the past that he liked her before it became known that she didn't like Achewood, so there's obviously other reasons he likes to be around her. (For instance, she could have great tits, or be the only girl willing to put out for him, or she could be otherwise a fantastic person.) And they've been together for what, two weeks, tops? How very high school.

As one who is technically still in the range of years known as adolescence, I completely agree. Maturity is a commodity that is in ridiculously low supply among teenagers, myself likely included.
Plenty of couples that start in high school are doomed ones, because most high-schoolers don't want a relationship, they want something that'll moan when they hump it. I didn't get into my current relationship for sex, I got into it for friendship and companionship. And sex. I'll be honest. But not ONLY sex, is the point I'm trying to make here. I'm a sentimental kind of guy, and I fell for her hard. There's a reason it's working for us: Sex was an effect, not a cause.
I can understand the euphoria that comes with the first time. It wasn't long ago that I was that guy. But I didn't announce it to the unsuspecting internet. Well, until now, I guess. Damn. There goes my argument.

I have thought of a way to convince your girlfriend to like Achewood. Just show her all the strangers who read it who you've told about having sex with her.
And maybe stop using terms like faggot-ass? Mainly it's all the Achewood readers who know about her sex life, though.

Yes, Tekende, I was referring to that episode. I'm glad you thought it was funny. That's the grace of which I spoke.
And I can't speak for him, but I was not dueling for the hand of Ms. Blarghamagarky. I was kind of just up in a clock tower with a sniper rifle, takin' pot shots at the crowd 'cause I was feelin' feisty.
And while she does seem kind and attractive and all (even with her new androgynous avatar) I am already in love with someone who isn't a little box on a computer screen.

It's strange enough to think that there are normal people out in the world whom I could meet face to face that like Achewood, as I've never met one who wasn't my own convert, but it's far stranger to think that there are attractive ladies with similar tastes.

Yes, I was in Best Buy a while ago (Brother's computer was broken) and I was just spoutin' Achewood references left and right, hoping someone-anyone would recognize. Instead, all I saw that day was a kid with a finger growing out of his elbow. Seriously, it was all just no forearm, and it was hell of grody*.

Ahem.
I'm going to reveal something about myself, because it is unnecessary to establishing my Internet Expertise on this subject. My name is not Bjorn, and I am not of Norse extraction. My name is Felipe, as I will prove later, (pronounced "Feh-leap" as the French.) However, this is a Spanish spelling of the name, and would be otherwise pronounced "Feh-lee-pay". I have had to correct many high school substitutes on this pronunciation. Likewise, when asked my name, I first say "Feh-leap", and then spell "F-E-L-I...", because most expect the French spelling, Philippe. This is because my name is actually Portuguese, and the sound is unpronounceable in the English language, so I simplify it to a phonetically pleasing substitute in the French.
ANYHOW: Philippe is a French name. You pronounce it "Feh-leep", with a sense of Gallic superiority. Done.

That's funny, actually. For the first month or two, I definitely said "Fi-LEAP-ay." After a while, I somehow realized that it probably was "Fi-LEAP." I think it had something to do with Ultra Peanut calling him "FeeReep."

There's a lot of deep lookin' into a strip that might just be as simple as more chickeny chicken.
Roast Beef is getting married. He's finally doin' it.
The gang (only Vlad would tell someone "piss on you") is celebrating at his bachelor party.
Phillipe is too young to go, indeed at a special age, in a place where the mere presence of children is special . So he has to go to a special place for kids. Which is Disneyland.
P.S. - Only Lyle would eat something as skanky as movie nachos.

The comedic similarity between Philippe on the one hand, and Ray and Roast Beef on the other hand, rests on the fact that:
a) They have each found a way to use a black Magic Marker
b) They are all talking animals
c) In its own way, Philippe's idea of fun is revealed to be as pointless and empty as the grownups'
d) They have each consumed drinks out of tall glasses

I'm gonna go ahead and throw a prediction out there:
Achewood will remain on the fringes, no matter the level of success attained by the Great Outdoor Fight book. Our ranks will swell, of course. Maybe even considerably. But "Abercrombie Amber" will never get within ten miles of it. And if she does, she won't stay around long.
I mean, you look at a very mainstream, very accessible sort of comic like, say, Ghost World. Yes, a million people bought it and probably several million saw the movie adaptation. But how many among them who weren't already familiar fans of Daniel Clowes went on to become avid readers of his prior work? Yes, probably pretty damn many, but not a lot relative to the millions who went into it not already being fans. Most of them saw it and enjoyed it and moved on, 'cause that's the way folks are, generally. And if something as down to earth and massively popular as Ghost World didn't have "Abercrombie Amber" sporting, say, a David Boring baby tee, I think it's pretty safe to assume that she won't be donning the above mentioned tiny shorts, either.
The nature and the humor of this comic just seemed so specialized. I think it might be household name-proof.
I guess we'll find out.

No, the intersection's right, but since the Hot Topic circle is so much bigger than Achewood's, it results in about a quarter of a person overlapping. So, maybe some Achegirl got a pair of socks at Hot Topic after imbibing unwise amounts of alcoholic beverage.

The cause of being the highest rated strip: Being the best
The cause of being the most viewed: being the funniest
The cause of being the most commented: a long hiatus between comics, a whiny bitch who wants everyone to know his feelings on the strip, and drunk/high people with nothing to do.
This strip certainly falls into the latter.

There's no need to commit to a schedule, but Onstad always seems to go though a lull this time of year, he'll be back on it soon enough. No need to do anything rash to the schedule.
The reason I don't read Perry Bible Fellowship or Maakies is that there is no set schedule, and I forget to go if it's not updated freqently (and I go when Achewood's lagging and I need something, anything). If there are fewer Achewoods, there will be fewer readers in the long run.

This is all part of Onstad's plan. He saw that the comment boards were becoming too crowded, too many people fighting for too few chubbies. Thus he has let this board fall into a state of anarchy in the hopes that we would turn against each other and thin out our own numbers. Soon, poster will fight poster until only the strongest survive, then Onstad will return and usher in a new golden age of Achewood!

from the themes and sparsity of recent strips and the messages (especially about his current cold and when he said his circadian rhythm was based in Bangladesh or whatever), i think it's fair to conclude that Onstad is currently suffering a bout of depression, probably seasonal. his motivation and immunity are shot. i had this a few weeks ago ago.. had a bout of viral meningitis followed IMMEDIATELY by some pretty bad bronchitis, and let me tell you, even without the illness, i was in no mood to create. i was also in no mood to shower, sleep, or enjoy anybody's company, and there was nothing i could do about it but hold on to the knowledge that it would pass by Spring. i believe Chris is going through something similar. so let him be. don't give him any additional anxiety, the dude doesn't need it right now.

CHAPTER ONE:
Poo Coffee and a Musical Number
A repo man stared at a slow-moving car that passed the 24-hour diner he was sitting at. A cool rain watered amber fields of grain in Topeka this 3am, but that was nowhere near here. "..." he scrunched up his nose at the cup of sludge the waitress had called 'his cuppa joe'. "Ugh. Good God. I gotta get out of this place." He waved the waitress, who wore 'DEN SE' on a tag, over to his booth.
IF YOU THINK HE ASKS FOR THE CHECK, KEEP READING.
IF YOU THINK HE ASKS FOR A NEW POT OF COFFEE, YOU ARE PROBABLY HIGH. (on pot)
"Sure thing, suga'." Denise said as she tore his stub out of her book. "L'be $5.83. This for here or to go?"

He pulled out a ten-spot and laid it and a few coins from his pockets on the table, not registering what the grand total was and pushed himself up, using the table to stablize himself.

IF YOU THINK SHE ASKS HIM IF HE WANTS CHANGE, YOU ARE RIGHT.
IF YOU THINK THIS IS LAME, YOU ARE ALSO RIGHT. (so stop reading)
"'Scuse me, Sir!" she called out, "Don't you want change?"

The MAN who RUINED LIVES and The WOMAN who MET HIM!!
- A choose-the-mystventure/audio (not audio) novel! -
a foreword (hella fanfiction.net stylez):
Onstad owns these characters. i do not.
If he so chose, he could sue me into oblivion for this as well as the other Achewood related things I've done but I hope he wouldn't, 'cos I think he is neat and he does stuff what is good.
CHAPTER ONE:
Poo Coffee and a Musical Number
A repo man stared at a slow-moving car that passed the 24-hour diner he was sitting at. A cool rain watered amber fields of grain in Topeka this 3am, but that was nowhere near here. "..." he scrunched up his nose at the cup of sludge the waitress had called 'his cuppa joe'. "Ugh. Good God. I gotta get out of this place." He waved the waitress, who wore 'DEN SE' on a tag, over to his booth.
IF YOU THINK HE ASKS FOR THE CHECK, KEEP READING.
IF YOU THINK HE ASKS FOR A NEW POT OF COFFEE, YOU ARE PROBABLY HIGH. (on pot)
"Sure thing, suga'." Denise said as she tore his stub out of her book. "L'be $5.83. This for here or to go?"
The man shook his head as he flipped open his wallet, thinking that though you can get the girl out of the fast-food lane you can't get her mind out of the frier.

Perhaps. But we do pay for it, in a roundabout way. We consume products; advertising shows us products we may wish to consume. Advertising pays for network television.
So basically, by as consumers making advertising profitable, we pay for network television.

There are some people who have a right to say, as slalvation does here, that you should not complain about network TV shows for this reason or that reason. Slalvation is not one of them, as he/she/it has previously pissed on that proposition like the stultifying works of Edvard Grieg. And lamed me for not liking Friends , to boot. (Or for replying to slalvation, or for existing, I can't tell which. Somehow, such people can't figure out that their lames count as chubbies in my book.)
By the way, I'm starting to agree with sortelli and that other misanthrope, brokeaccount. There are way more comments posted on this strip than is warranted by the strip itself. Maybe we should resist the temptation to diddle in public, at least until the next strip appears? That goes triple for you, javonathan . Stop writing about your boning, or stop boning in the first place. You gave your word, mister.

I don't say you should not complain about network TV shows. I was actually saying that something being free is no reason not to complain about it.
And, looking through my inbox, the only "correspondence" we've had was you saying something I didn't even bother to respond to, and I lamed it because when I read it I thought, "What a dull comment. Why did he even bother saying that?" And I didn't mark it as lame in the hopes that you would know, and be hurt by it. I marked it as lame because I thought it was lame -- I really don't care what it means to you.

I have found from experience that very few teachers actually expect good papers. As long as you write coherent sentences and make it sound like you paid attention in class, you're already ahead of 60% the other students. This is true in the American school system at least, where the gradual dumbing-down of society has caused teachers to lower their standards. You don't have to be smart to stand out, just smarter than the guy next to you. Here's another thing to consider: think about how dumb the average American is, half of the country is dumber than that.

Well, considering there's so much rambling shit on these comments I might as well go ahead and say: I bought the Dude and Catastrophe Beer Glass. I have finally given Onstad money for all the intense joy he has provided. Take my money Onstad. TAKE IT!

We have nothing better to do until the next Achewood strip. I saw 'we' but this is my first comment on this strip. But it's generally true.

How odd, you posted this one the same day that The Kazenzakis Card Company strip was put up, which, in a matter of a day or two, blew this one out of the water.

I love this strip.
Achewood is like a dream where things aren't exactly how they should be, instead it's just how you feel they should be.
This strip makes sense in my gut, where all the important desicions are made.

Come on.
Onstad gives some seriously subversive and upsetting details/non-detail in this strip. He's BUILDING CHARACTER... that takes time.

Why, because someone wrote a paragraph in agreement?
I believe he was referring to the fact that history proved that this was not in fact the start of a new story arc, and was indeed just one weird throwaway strip.
You have never been vindicated. Not once. Ever.
Perhaps the wanton neglect of Phillipe is a just a joke unto itself.
Urg. I don't know about discussion. The posts are getting unwieldy to say the least. There's a lot of unthinking blah starting to appear; neither the brief, pithy fan-posts that make us laugh, nor the microscopic analyzes that make us think that the poster may be abusing his Ritalin again. Spelling mistakes and micro-feuds are cropping up doggs; this is all getting out of control.
"Micro-feuds," I can deal with. It's the spelling mistakes that make me itch.
MAD FAT PERSON MAD AT A CARTOON ALERT EVERYONE GET ALERTED
REPAIR!!
here's the chorus to my new single Trial Loving:TRIAL LOVINGGGGGGG/JUST A..."TEST RUN FUCKING"
This, right here, this is classic achewood. A flashback to the '04 days of yore.
You don't read strips like these for a chuckle. You read them for a confused chuckle. This is life, man!
I didn't feel this strip was all that confusing. Phillipe got sassy on junk food and wrote a swear, and Beef, obviously jovial on juniper oil got a groucho stache for the amusement of some strippers. No doubt he was goaded into doing so by the sensuality of Destynee's purple easy spirit pumps.
I find Philippe's singing and crooning to be kind of creepy. Repetition and stretching out words just... never sounds right.
You don't liiiiiiike it?
You don't liiiiiiike it when people talk like this?
Oh, daidai, you are hilarious. And that's a fantastic avatar too!
Wah thank yah kandly. Thank yah kandly vury much.
I think this is the beginning of a story arc. It reminds me of Phillipe at the Transfer Station.
I don't refer to the basic premise of the comic - "dudes in bar, phillippe home alone". I refer to the point Onstad is trying to make. The comic feels hell of incomplete, rushed, addled. An idea he wasn't able to translate to strip form adequately.
no man, this is the best strip achewood's had in 2 months. The joke is that Philippe has a bad life.
i get it
chubby for the avatar of ahmedigetitinejad.
give it time! this could turn out to be a long and involved arc... when phillipe went to find the couch at the dump, very little was explained in that first strip either.
Although to be fair he did explain that it was going to be a story arc in the alt-text. Not that I would expect him to it again here.
I voted this a 3 but if it turns out to lead on to a good storyline, I'd be happy to retcon it up another point!
you crazy. the lack of explanation makes it fantastic. you must not remember that chick named tyrone
I don't need to have these things explained to me because I PAY ATTENTION. I PAY ATTENTION.
I work for AMC. Even at employee pricing, I tend to avoid said nachos. lol
Nachos in a movie theatre aren't nachos. They're chips that got too old to be sold as chips.
Hey our chips are fine. It's the cup of yellow-orange 'cheese' sauce that scares me.
I did not mean to offend you -- or your chips.
I apologize for my senceless remark.
Is it true that they make that stuff out of some kind of synthetic polymer?
Actually, it's made out of the stuff left over after they club a baby seal and turn it's skin into a coat, mixed with the runoff waste from the SPAM factory.
Nuh-uh! I heard it's made from unicorn tears and the blood of virgin babies.
There are places one could go from the implied rareness of virgin babies, but all of them are bad.
- wishes he had eaten movie-house nachos while watching Saw rather than reading that comment
Maybe she means blood from babies born from virgins. Which is pretty much just Baby Jesus. So unicorn tears, and Jesus blood, but from when he was a baby.
Nope, I meant virgin, unspoiled babies.
But, yes, there are traces of baby Jesus blood.
It's okay you can use wine as a replacement if you don't have any Jesus blood.
...nice icon.
You know, I think spelling fuck, "fuch," is kind of dumb.
Philippe's compressed K looks like an H to me. I'm happy to spell fuck. Fuckity fuck fuck kcuf. crap
Well, since we're all just spinning our wheels and filling this board up waiting for Onstad to convalesce, I will again assert my belief that "fuck" or "fuch" was written by The Boys. Not the boy.
I'm so sick of this strip.
A general consensus, I think, as the rating has dropped.
