Because he's nothing more than a drunk-ass brawler. His only technique is to run at you full speed, all fists n' elbows, hoping something connects. We're not talking strategy or savvy, here, just brute force. The moment Lyle came across a dude with any skills it'd be all over. He's basically the Kimbo Slice of Achewood.

So many great things in this strip.
"Is SO cool."
"I could play a trumpet with my cock", and Cornelius' subsequent reaction to that statement.
Don't forget "You know how computers suck!"
I have a degree in computer science and have contributed to publications in the field, and am firmly convinced that computers suck.
oh definitely. the more you study them the more you know this is true.
...also refers to surgical techniques, quarks, and post-colonial studies.
I just read through a couple of medical journals at the library. I have now become deathly afraid of doctors.
Every single article seemed to start with phrases like "existing treatment proves ineffective/fatal" and "Despite thousands of cases being treated the area has seen little research." Also loads of stuff about nurses not washing their hands.
In fact, every Ph.D. thesis in CS has a chapter on how much computers suck. It may be oblique, but it's there, trust me.
Lyle just doesn't trust anything that can be on, and apparently working, but not moving .
Or the penis pun in the alt text.
