Taffy does not enjoy serving as the punchline of the strip.

I think he's just doing that as a way of saying, "all right, get on with it, we know," because that's a long list to be at the end of.

such an accurate depiction of welsh cats, this is

The roll call reminded me of Captain Planet ("Earth! Wind! Water!", etc.). Taffy would be Ma-ti, and you know it.

So many things make reference to Ma-ti and Heart being worse than the other Planeteers/powers. Somebody else has made this joke before, probably on 4chan or something.

That's all.

The best part about Captain Planet is watching it on mute and making up your own dialog.
"Oh shit here comes that blue terrorist who keeps fucking up our industry!"
"I am going to see the oil riggers union about this!"
"Please we loggers are just trying to keep the economy afloat!"

Seeing as the heroes had super-advanced solar tech, though, you have to assume people just kept on using fossil fuels because they were pricks. Unless the heroes were refusing to share, in which case, everyone was pricks.

Also actually grappling with the complexities of an environmentalist society was a bit much for a turn-of-the-post-Soviet-Union-era kids' show. Good point, though.

Somebody leave their account open on a shared computer?

My bad. Good luck with your new e-stalker!

There is a 1 in the imposter's username.

If he'd thought to replace the l (lowercase L) with an I (capital i) instead of a 1 (numeric one) the two would have been indistinguishable.

Assetbar removes caps from account names, he probably tried this too.

The gene pool expired at Taffy.

too out of character. he's a douche, you got that part correct, but he loves his achewood

All I need to do is somehow bring Asherdan and Retardo back to the board and piss them off, and I can have my own little troll garden.

Aww, you caught a machine elf. You and loneal have something in common now (other than the penis thing)

Elbox, can we make our machine elves fight like Pokemon? Lainestin, I choose you!

No offense, Loneal, but I don't think it'd be a fair match. Your Lainestin is only a level 1 machine elf with a basic Lame attack and Invisibility power, whereas mine has Wall of Text, Deliberate Misspelling, Tourrette's Attack, and Shapeshift. Come back after more training.

My God! I wonder who lamed this post?

Would they all have wacky, different-colored hair? If so, I'm excited!

they're also from heaven?

Better than being from circumstnces. Sort of like being from history.

Just pretend there's an 'a' up there where it's supposed to be. thankyouverymuch

Friend, it's a webcomic, with its own logic. Might as well try and figure out how Ray can drive an Escalade when he's a two-foot tall cat.

St. Hoppy is probably dead, since he's a saint and has a halo, like Blister.

Heaven burned down. People died in heaven and returned to Earth.

Though unconfirmed I speculate that the now alive Dead returned to their home countries, and Molly traveled to Achewood to meet with Beef.

Man, It's taken me three weeks to realize this is the closing line from one of the greatest films ever made.

Come on, dude. Don't be an impostor. That sucks.

uh oh someone else is registering more imposter accounts nd it isn't me... fucking imposter imposters!

me me me me me

OH NO! I thought impostor was spelled "imposter!" I'm no longer great at spelling.

It is! Impostor is an imposter!

Captain Planet would be shunned and labeled a blue terrorist if he was real...

"Oh shit, he just threw our oil rig into the sun!"

CAPTAIN PLANET, Season Three, Episode 7: Captain Planet versus Admiral T. Law

Mati is from Circumstances.
Also, I can't think of *one* time that Heart was actually used unless it was to summon Captain Planet.

...... *Looks at hearts on cube*

Damnit... why wouldn't I ever get to be any of the good planeteers?

Except of the supposedly "Welsh" names... quite a few of them definitely aren't, and at least one I'm sure is Irish. Heck, only 4 of them are still used these days, but that isn't really the point in this case since we're talking about cats that have somehow come en masse back from the dead.

My first impression was that he's doing it because he's batshit crazy. Also a good reason for being at the end of the line, and apparently in a straitjacket.

Your explanation is also good.

Taffy is chewing taffy. Taffy likes taffy, so "yeah, yeah, yeah!". Taffy is hard to chew, so the pained expression.

That is my explanation.

also, this

Fascinating.

I like it.

What would worry me most about this guy is the fact that the 'achillese1bow' profile has viewed over four hundred strips. Does he enoy the thrill of sitting there, logged in under a username that he knows he shouldn't have? It is unclear.

Oh. Well that's just fine then.

Comment left by achillese1bow ignored.

See, that's rather interesting. I've personally read all of Achewood start to finish (though I should read up again, it's a long strip). But I posted something yesterday and was shocked to find that I couldn't post anything else for a day, while others, like achilleselbow, were posting many at the same time. The fact is, I didn't get involved with the boards till recently, so it doesn't know my page count. I'm rather grateful to this post, if not to the person.

I also created my assetbar account after having already read the entire archive and saw that site and considered using it, but I found out that hitting the random button or just going through the top strip on the "highest rated strips you haven't seen" list is actually a great way to pass time and remember great strips that I'd forgotten about.

He has a macro (if that is the right word) that opens a bunch of strips to artificially inflate his page count so he can be a cock to people on the internet. He realizes he is disliked by just about everyone that reads this strip, and instead of crawling out of the pit he has dug for himself through acts of community and humility he just digs that pit deeper and deeper.

It would be sad if he didn't do things like this. I for one will see no more of him, in this guise anyway.

By sad I mean I would pity him if he wasn't such a spiteful shit.

Comment left by achillese1bow ignored.

Yeah, I've him him in his various guises before. I've always felt a bit sorry for the guy, since the urge to use the anonymity of the internet to be cock can be pretty strong for everyone sometimes. This is the first time when his kinda creepy annoyingness has made me really dislike him.

And the click of the *ignore user* button is pretty satisfying.

Comment left by achillese1bow ignored.

Psst, he feeds on our hatred... so resist speaking of it!

Kirk slaps Kang on the back as they laugh at the retreating entity...

I'm going to be the nice guy here and not lame the hell out of everyone responding to him on this one. It is confusing people, and I don't think they are 100% idiot for responding (maybe 98%). But guys, he recently posted a pic of tekende and bix to get attention, now this. You gotta watch out. As trolls starve, they get crafty. Do your very best not to respond to these things.

Yea, I just figured that if I didn't respond, some lazy people might actually think it's me, which apparently happened anyway since they went all lame-crazy on one of my posts above that got sandwiched in between his. I'm sure this is the greatest victory he's achieved in his life.

We have to constantly evolve new strategies, so if he ever does something like this again, the first person to notice it should just post a reply pointing out the impostor, and that should be the end of it. This is what I should have done, but my annoyance got the better of me, and I apologize.

what makes you pick an avitar of a sneering dinosaur or horse or whatever and say 'yep, this is me?' Maybe you need to evolve the strategy of crawling into a giant industrial sized saussage maker with a string attached to the on/off switch and then when you are all the way inside, yank on the string.

He's trolling. But also:

When I see Taffy, all I can think of (for better or worse) is Devo .

That is,

https://youtube.com/watch?v=bnAXb6gmbOc


He's out of control now!

No.

"I've got an urge/I've got a surge/and it's out of control now"

Know your Devo.

Heh I do know my DEVO. It's called artistic license. Where art can be loosely enough defined to mean commenting in forums.

Yeah my understanding of "Taffy," is that it's an insult used by the English for the Welsh, in a (fairly?) similar way to "Okies" being a pejorative term in America, or I guess today any of the derogatory terms for Mexicans.

It's also a welsh nickname probably derived from daffies (ie daffodil ie flouwer of wales). If you wanna be derogatory you call Welsh people Leek-sniffing-sheep-shaggers.

eg of anti welsh humour
What do you call a sheep strapped to a lamppost in Cardiff?
...
A leisure centre

Or you know, it could be derived from the River Taff.

Okies is pejorative? Sniff. I've been called that almost my whole life...

It was one of those "originally pejorative but then adapted by the group in question and turned into an affectionate term" things, like calling LDS members Mormon. Started out as an insult, adapted until now it's really not.

Are you from Muskogee?

I've read that "Sooner" was also pejorative. "Okies" definitely was. They disappointed a lot of other Californians by not living up to their advance billing for sloth and criminality.

I thought Sooner was a cool name until my wife kept using it after sex. Turns out I'm terrible in the sack.

No, no, she was saying "Schooner." Like you're a mighty ship!

[Holds door open for someone after me to make a mast or boom joke]

Ever been hoisted with your own petard... in bed?

I see someone watches Sex and the City. The heartbreaker about that episode is that my wife decided to start calling my sturdiness "Schooner" the second she heard it, then the prissy character decided her bajingo would be named exactly my wife's name . I still crack up over that.

That was actually my first thought. Now I know that hedonismbot's wife's name's Rebecca, and I don't know how I feel about it.

I don't know, but I think it feels weird to know that hedonismbot has a wife.

I bet they host some killer key parties. I just get that feeling. Hedonismbot, do you have a mustache?

Mustache rides are a dollar a minute. I have three mustaches located at strategic locations on me, so my parties tend to be pretty profitable.

(afraid to ask)

...where's the third...?

why, it's right here:
[IMGS OFF]

that picture is so lol.

I got into it a month or two ago about the spelling if Rebekah, so I figured it was already out there. Technically, she isn't my wife, but I treat her like one and when she calls me husband I sometimes loosen the manacles a bit. All told it's nicer than most real marriages.

heh, I must have filed that back in some rusty old file cabinet in my brain. When I made that post I was mostly going for the Boo/Boo-urns joke, but now that you mention it, I have seen that episode of SatC. Dang ol' Charlotte & Trey.

Yeah, "sooner" originally referred to people who cheated and got a head start on the Land Run. So OU basically named their football team after a bunch of thieves.

You understand correctly. There's a nasty little English schoolyard poem that starts: "Taffy was a Welshman/Taffy was a thief..."

Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a git,
Taffy came to my house, and took a giant shit,
I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was at rest,
So I climbed in through the window, and crapped upon his chest.

Ain't no straitjacket - it's the same thing that all the other ones are wearing, plus you can see a bit of his left arm.

Also, considering that the only character besides St. Hoppy to have a halo was Blister, halo distribution in Achewood heaven seems rather arbitrary, to say the least.

Well, St Hoppy IS a saint... perhaps Blister was a really really GOOD squirrel. Perhaps he was beatified.

I ate a squirrel in a casserole once...

I ate a possum. Let's compare notes!

What was a sheep doing in the zoo?

I don't know about you, but when I was a kid, the "zoo" meant the petting zoo. It was populated solely by goats and sheep whose bellies were so distended that my little sister and I assumed every single one was on the verge of giving birth to triplets. They were actually just morbidly obese due to children feeding them ice cream cones full of goat kibble all day long. One time one head-butted my sister. That was the best day.

You tell such wonderful tales.

I don't know everything about petting zoos, but I can tell you this: they really don't like obnoxiously drunk 22 year olds throwing cans at the goats and falling down and uprooting the fence.

With your Stephen Fry avatar, I have to assume that you witnessed this display of vulgarity from across the road, where you were reading Huysmans and drinking lapsang souchong. You chuckled inwardly at the misplaced vigour of youth, and twinkled at the busboy who came to refresh your tray of cakes.

Are.. .are you sure it wasn't me? Because the petting zoo people sure were.

If you don't behave yourself, zoos will start following the aquariums' lead!

[IMGS OFF]

Then why do they sell beer there? It is counter-intuitive!

Same reason they sell condoms. There is a market

listen friend, I don't go around making facts out of other people's drunken assumptions.But I'll be sure to let you know just how goats react to obnoxious 22 year olds as soon as my team can get the funding, lab space, and livestock.

Shame on you when you step through to
Ol Dirty Bastard, Brooklyn Zoo!

man I love that song. every time I hear zoo I remind me of it. such an impression as it make

shimmy shimmy ya shimmy ya shimmy yay
gimme the mike so i can take a-WAY

i usually just mutter the rest, because i can't tell what a third of it is. but it seems, to the casual observer, that i have the whole album memorized.

Off on a natural charge, Bon-Voyage/
Yeah from the home of the dodge and Brooklyn squad!

You seem to be describing my place of work. Oh, and most varieties of sheep/goats have several stomachs, plus some have air sacs for homeostasis-related purposes that make them look fat. These are called pygmy goats and dwarf goats. In fact, healthy animals usually look "fat" to us, which is unfortunate, because 9 out of every 10 visitors seem to assume they're either pregnant or obese. They can't really gain weight on the sort of food places like that hand out, since it's essentially both nutritionless and carb-less

PS. Sorry to go all correctiony on you; it's just that spending 10 hours a day in a place like that makes you hate the fuck out of anyone who can't read the damn signs helpfully bolted to the front of the pen. Not that you have a sign in front of you, or that you're likely to remember what signs said that you only maybe read when you were a kid.

I once went to a petting zoo that had an emu. It was really exciting to go to one that finally had something you could pet besides goats that try eat your shoes.

As I approached the emu, it stuck its head through the cage and bit my finger. Then a kid walked by shouting something obnoxious and waving around a dollar bill his parents had given him, and the emu stuck its head out and bit the dollar bill. I feel that, while this may have been counter to the expressed intention of the petting zoo, this improved the experience significantly.

Also, I'm now a were-emu, which is pretty cool.

What was a sheep doing in the zoo? I don't know, I didn't write the script .
Why don't you ask Mr Ken Russell?

I thought that's what you were talking about. Did you end up all doing a :O ?

Oh thank god someone else knew what I was rambling about, I thought the obscurity demon had totally got me then.

Yeah I think that each species gets a certain quota of saints due to equality etc, and the squirrel saints are just guys who did not have enough money to own a gun and had an idea one time about sharing (does not need to have remembered it.)

I know this is a bit of an odd thing, as things go, perhaps I am only thinking this as a result of my hat-addled mind... but I think Taffy is yeah yeah yeahing because he is masturbating.
Just putting a theory out there.
Not projecting.


maybe a little

Hilarious!

*Breaking news*
According to Wikipedia "Taffy" is a slang name for Tafil AKA Xanax.
*End News*

I was thinking he was the reincarnation of Todd for a minute.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the posters below this point for flooding my inbox to unnatural proportions. You've all made my life a little more hellish. You have my sincere gratitude.

Above. Above this post. More specifically between this post and the first one I made... oh fuck it nevermind, I give up.

I actually thought he either had a mental disorder, or he's just jerking it right then and there (which I guess COULD be considered a mental disorder). You know, pulling it like taffy!

You call that a punchline??

NO

what freak accident took gareth's eyebrows, keeping him from being ALMOST identical to haydn?

Gareth has eyebrows. He is just not so easily surprised as his younger brother Haydn being as he is a man of the world.

I'd imagine it was the same that made Dylan blind.

It appears that we are twins.

Dylan isn't blind.

He's wearing sunglasses cause he's blazed outa his skull.

Yeah brah, dat welsh-afterlife weed brah. That's dat dankness.

Well, according to Molly's family tree in this post , it's actually Folant Gareth and Folant Haydn, so perhaps they're twins.

coincidentally, when I clicked on Roast Beef, he stirred restlessly, as if to say "why you got to click on me HURRGGH"

Aw, thanks! However, the Doc beat me to it, with a nifty animated GIF to boot. cheers, Doc.

I'm guessing it just means his eyebrows happen to be fine enough to blend into his fur

This strip is basically Onstad playing with the electronic equivalent of a Dapper Dan.

You could be implying that Onstad has made this strip with the electronic equivalent of shoe grease-- a poor man's ink. But that could be said of any Achewood strip, or, indeed, anything on the web at all.

You could be referring to a robot Dan Duryea , or a computerized one, maybe, instead, who perhaps could play the part of Iorwerth well. But this would be such an obtuse and cryptic way of expressing such an opinion that it would stand in the way of any standard communication at all, and you seem to be attempting to make a pass at a fairly straightforward statement.

What on earth do you mean, sir?

I was originally gonna post a link , but I figured it would be too patronizing.

[IMGS OFF]

Maybe Wooly Willy is more well-known? The one I had as a kid was called Dapper Dan though.

I think everyone assumed Dapper Dan to be referring to the pomade in O Brother Where Art Thou .

I had a toy called a Dapper Dan, but it was a toy to teach children about fasteners. It had buttons, zippers, the whole shebang.

I remember those!
Amazon lists a modernized version with backward cap:
https://www.amazon.com/Playskool-Dapper-Dan/dp/B000VQ27PY

Oh, that is magnificent. I like his sister's name. Dressy Bessy. Good stuff.

tammy ealom likes the name, too.

I like this post only because "magnificent" is the least effective word to describe those toys.

You can have a chubby. I believe it is my last.

my sister had one a' them.

Fool best not walk 'round these parts dressed so dapper, lest he get shot for his fly-mother-ass dapper vest.

Did you see this under the product features: this doll is sure to make your kid just a little bit smarter than his peers-- order one today!
What the hell, parents! Is it all about competition now? Isn't it enough that your kid will be able to dress himself? Is Dapper Dan going on the Harvard application? Maybe you should just mix in some paint chips when it's your kid's turn to bring cupcakes for the class, if you really want to give him an edge.

Does that mean that Achilleselbow goes with Fop?

I don't know about him, damnit, but I'm a Dapper Dan man!

(I watched this yesterday. Is such coincidence.)

This comic was pretty awesome for me to read, because I maneuvered the comic inside the browser window so that the FIRST two rows of panels were clearly visible but the last panel was completely unseen.
So I was all "haha, this huge line of brothers is pretty funny" and then I scrolled down and then "holy crap there is MORE of them!"

Good form, jonmw. You are a champion of reading internet-based funnies.

That is also the best way to read the Philippe skeleton strip.

I remember some webcomic site had a fancy web 2.0 (I wish that didn't sound so stupid) thing where you could read one panel at a time, clicking next and back and so on. It was a really good way of reading it because you couldn't see the surprises and delights ahead.

That SOUNDS like a good idea, but it's so hard to pull off without utterly destroying the efficiency of the existing system. For example, when you clicked "next panel" or whatever, did it change INSTANTLY or did start downloading the panel to your computer at that point?
And that's not even mentioning the typical bloat of the masses of useless buttons that are crammed onto these things like they're a freaking DVD remote control.

Same thing happened to me. It's like that by default in 1024x768.

Dewey's haircut is suspiciously similar to Jack Black's haircut as Dewey Finn in School of Rock.

Coincidence? Almost certainly.

Look here at this anagram! It's going to (the) semantic rally (coincidentally, it is named after its destination)!

While there, it gets to try a camel tonsil , part of the local cuisine. During the rally, a maniac tells Tyro, a milt lance (a walking, talking pole weapon made of fish semen--not intended as a real weapon but rather as a living feminist art project), that it is probably the most unfortunate sentient being the world over, one of the more cogent things the maniac has had the sense to say. On its way back, our anagram is ambushed-- anaemic trolls try to steal some of its letters, but, being anaemic, they are overcome with fatigue and our beloved anagram escapes unscathed. But lo, satanic myrtle dots the horizon, threatening our hero! No matter--Tyro, who came along on the way back, carnally smote it as one might assume its intended purpose was. Guess it's good for something after all.

All in all, our anagram makes it home safe and sound to a calmer place--an apartment on top of a calmer, tits-only topless bar, that is. Hooray!

The End! (No moral.)

You may have to calm me down like Molly's father, as I am experiencing emotions of delight. I love anagrams.

Are you some kind of minor deity taking your place among the pantheon of Assetbar gods? Did edwell rape your mother in the form of a swan?

(To be clear, loneal meant that edwell was in the form of a swan, not zwab's mother.)

Are you certain? Actually, I'm not sure which is more disturbing.

Oh, definitely the mother being the swan. Cause people don't come from eggs!

Wait, they do? Oh yeah, but that shit doesn't count. I mean, if that counted, fucking everything would come from eggs. 'Cept plants. Fuck plants.

Where am I?

I don't know what happened here, but I like it.

Shit, we're on to swans now? I still haven't mentally recovered from the ant story a week back.

That was more than a week ago.

Man, I am just quoting Greek mythology. Greek mythology is sophisticated!

Every time and animal fucks a woman, I think of Zeus.

And then I masturbate furiously

My friend Nathan always says masturbate "furiously". I don't know if it's common language or what.

I say it because I am often very angry at my gigantic penis

Masturbate like you doin' a guitar solo.

Just wait until I kill a belligerent king of Assetbar in a boxing match--and later am granted immortality by edwell!

It will suck , however, when my hot sister is kidnapped by two guys from a neighboring webcomic and dragged to the underworld and my brother and I have to go and rescue her--especially since even after that she doesn't learn her lesson and ends up getting abducted again (gods(Athena Hera)dammit!) and starting a terrible, massive war. Later, Isaac Asimov will coin the term "milihelen," a unit of measurement equating to one-thousandth of her beauty.

Are you Castor or Pollux? Bet you're Castor.

Will you marry me?

Do you like anagrams as much as I?

Or perhaps I should say, in the words of famed poet Annagramus of Aegina (who was only rivaled in skill by his brother Alliteratus), that you, human, do mark a [ sic. ] isle saga (Annagramus was not quite as skilled in English as he was in his native Greek and made the occasional syntax error)--want to elope to my homeland, the Greek isles? If we're really lucky my dad might grant you immortality.

And your Mama licks sausage. Hi-O!

Huge anagrammatic Ed McMahon-style slam on zwab's mother, out of nowhere!

Taffy is obviously the runt of the litter(s?), and as such is prone to health problems and increased aggression.

They should seat him at the same table as Todd.

Oh I should totally scroll down before posting, sorry.

Th-th-th-that'd be f-f-f-frickin' awesome!

Where *is* Todd these days? Besides dead or... y'know whatever.

The hell is Molly wearing...?

it's a hat!

It's missing the dirty great buckle normally associated with such headgear though.

She's not getting ready for a fucking Thanksgiving pageant.

V-chub. Just because you say it with such conviction.

Is it a fucking THANKSGIVING pageant, or a FUCKING Thanksgiving pageant?

Or even a fucking Thanksgiving PAGEANT?

Inquiring minds want to know.

(admittedly the joke works better verbally.)

IT'S A THANKSGIVING FUCKING PAGEANT!

I show my appreciation for the Pilgrims by getting mad rutty in my puritan garb.

I do so by putting on puritan garb and molesting Indians. When I can't find American Indians, I grab Asian ones. They don't get it, but they sure seem to enjoy it anyway. After the coprophiliac turkey incident, fucking natives is the only real connection I have to the original Thanksgiving.

Oh, see, after I get mad rutty I go out and shoot buffalo. You know, fuck all the meat, I just leave it to rot.

See, fucking all the buffalo meat seems like you are at least using it for some purpose. And I doubt many people would want to eat it after that anyway (Nolan and I spring to mind)

And Carl,

"No harm no foul, plenty of buffalo left."

Native Americans did that too! They would cause a stampede so that herds of buffalo would run off a cliff, which of course resulted in far more dead buffalo than they could eat, so quite a lot of it was left to rot.

Contrary to what we are taught in school, Native Americans were not the environment-friendly peaceful nobles we tend to believe them to have been. They did whatever they had to to get by, just like anyone else, except they had no technology.

This is true. For example, one time I was playing Oregon Trail and an Indian tricked me. I was like, "Yo, help me ford this river, B!" He asked for a yoke in exchange (lol whatever dude I'm a banker enjoy it , right?) but when I finally started the Oxen across, the whole enterprise came apart faster than an indigenous civilization in the face of smallpox.

The last thing I remember before everything faded to black was him using my yoke to invent chlorofluorocarbons.

So Tekende's right on with this.

v-v-v-vChub

Fuck, I aimed my chubby in the wrong direction. Enjoy the freebie

That makes my whole year H-bot. I am imagining you giving me your chubby right now as I listen to Frau by Oi Oi Oi.

Heh, real chub. I hear they were all anti-semitic as well.

Oh no! Historical inaccuracy!

I like it so much better than the assumed white dress affair.

Rather, more.
Oops.

Molly obviously knew her father was coming and decided to dress as a Welsh Non-Conformist rather than disappoint him by wearing raunchy modern clothes that show off her hair and ankles.

EYELASHES

LOVE THEM

Yeah, she was wearing a burqa, but you could tell she was hot.

I can tell she'd give great head. You can see it in the eyes.

I don't know, she's got an awfully pointy nose, from what I can gather.

It could also be a ninja.

Man if that's the case then the terrorists win.

Hey Wikipedia?

Who is Iorwerth?

Why, Iorwerth was the son of Bleddyn ap Cynfyn who was king of both Powys and Gwynedd.

Hey latterman, I wrote you a poem:

Oh how I missed swatting that bug before I realized it was fake.
Over and over and over, never learning from my mistake.

It's a pretty short poem.

Chubby for meter, anyway.

I wrote a Haiku:

Shit! Is that a bug?
Oh, It is just latterman.

There there, son. Emoticons.

That sounds like a description for one of the "Form Baton" poses in WarioWare on the Wii.

Honestly all of those poses sound like awkward ways to handle a penis.

What do you think the Wii is for? Learning to play sports? We are training our children to pleasure large white penii. Hell, there is a special addon controller that actually shoots 'winner's juice' out the end of the Wiimote when you 'beat' a level. It tastes like Coke with Real Sugar and is laced with opium, to make sure they can't get enough

Oh, Mario and Friends Games: Fell8 Version? That's like my favorite game!

I have a special two handed controller you might enjoy using

I am PRO geysering Wii Controllers with opium based fillers.

I think your frowny face has herpes. That or you are using a period right after an emoticon.

The latter, yes, but it might be fun to imagine this is perhaps an unhealthy fart. Maybe a small shart.

My dad says that this is the shortest poem ever:

Muhammad Ali says he wrote the shortest poem:

I know the world's shortest poem, but I can only write it in the original language:

Oh, fuck you Assetbar.

Well uh it's kind of short

For a poem I mean

But to offer a non-referential response: I'm flattered to receive even the shortest of poems from a self-righteous feminist cunt* because I realize how that seldom happens to such as a gentleman. eBay Platinum Reserve will likely yield much fervent bidding for this action.

*Lamers: Read the lady's profile before laming. She is actually a very lovely lady once you get to know her.

Cool, empty box.

Molly's mom is a slut!

How dare you cast such slanderous words about Molly's mother so carelessly, you've been incidental here.

Here as in in this particular example or here as in my whole existence on Assetbar.

Yes.

Look man, say what you will about theirateturk's posting style, but the man knows from sluts.

Not necessarily. "Slut" implies that Molly's Mother has slept around with a number of men. From the looks of them, being dressed like "they were in a play about religion" and having a priest as a son, it appears that they are a highly devout family for whom sex is more about procreation than pleasure.

I think it's more likely that Molly's mom is a catholic

Molly's dad wasn't going to be wearing no knotted sheep gut. No Sir!

Gunny sack is much more appropriate

You use a gunny sack as a contraceptive? How coarse .

...Did you really not get that reference?

...You did, didn't you.

Okay.

Don't worry its okay *whispers* the magic words are "cunt pills" .

man what

I used those magic words you suggested but my aunt still wouldn't give me any ice cream.

No; this vow of celebacy the world has forced upon me means I need not worry about such mundane things as how to stop my finest swimmers from impregnating other human beings.

Easy. It is mostly impossible to impregnate a person through anal sex. It seems vaginae are almost completely vestigial for some purposes.

Word to the wise: Guys can't get pregnant no matter which hole you stick it in.

Except female guys.

Didn't you used to date Molly's mom, irateturk?

What? Dude it's a cartoon????/

Cledwyn, Morcant, and Padraig sound like characters from Trials of Honour .

They could just as well have been featured in the Wyches of Baycliff

To me, Padraig just sounds like a name that doesn't belong on a list of Molly's brothers. They're Welsh and it's an Irish name.

(Chris Onstad is a very knowledgeable man so I'm sure he knows this, but still, it just doesn't sit right with me).

Padraic is Irish, Padraig is Welsh, they are both Patrick.


The More You Know.

Hmm, not sure about that. I'm Irish, and I've never met a person called Pádraic, but I've met plenty of people called Pádraig. A very lazy trip to Google seems to support my assumption.

Whoops, I only know a Padraic and has claims to be Irish. I went to primary school with a welsh kid and his dad's name was Padraig, he was named after St Paddy. Saint Patrick is claimed to have been born in Wales (prior to being kidnapped and sold into slavery). The name Padraig has been in Wales for a loooooong time. So I guess neither is really exclusive.

It's all Celtic to me?

there was an Irish Padraig on the show Oz. He was bomb-making Irish.

padraig is emo

I wonder what happened to Gareth and Haydn that caused them to die with the same haircut. Did one carry it on in honor of the other, or was there a tragic accident on the way home from the barber?

They used to work as stand-ins for Larry Fyne from the Three Stooges.

What I think is awesome is that they all seemed to die at the same age. Was it not the case that in the way-back days kids would die before they got to cravat wearing age?

This implies that they were all lost in the same shipwreck.

Then again, this implies that Molly was only a girl when she died. I guess even in heaven, childhood can't last forever.

The second strip shows a youngish Molly who shows an interest in a young bloke on the ship and is admonished for it by her mother, so maybe on the cusp of womanhood. At least that's how I read it.

The pedant in me feels I have to point out New York has been known as New York from 1674 until now. Molly said they were sailing to New Amsterdam in 1676 well after it had been taken from the Dutch for the last time (Before the last name change it had been known as New Orange anyway).

Cue Istanbul (Not Constantinople) .

It's weird, she has a stuffed animal. Usually you abandon stuffed animals before you start pining for romance.

Mama, when my dollies have babies and I'm a big laaaady

Also, New Orange is a better name than any other name.

An innocuous childhood crush blown out of proportion by an anxious parent, maybe.

Maybe she didn't realize this because it took a long time for news to travel back in those days, so they didn't realize the name had changed again.

I wondered how Molly got along with her family. It turns out, she's fantastically happy to see them. How sweet!

I thought the Clerks cartoon one was the neatest. My Firefox cache still has her as the blondy, so I will enjoy it in your stead.

Well hey there baby I mean theoretically you could, alls you gotta do is make bout fifteen more assetbar accounts and keep loggin in and out in and out in and out yeah but of course that is a troll's method, the forbidden technique that the master refuses to teach, only to be used desperately during a battle without honor or humanity on top of the mountain chop it down with the edge of my hand with thunderbolts splittin the sky, at the climax the climax of the film. Like Jerry Seinfeld said, you end with the swirl, but you got to be Down With The Swirl in the first place, so are you up to the challenge? Are You Experienced?

I don't know what that was, but I think I need a cigarette.

FFFAAAAAARRRRTTTT

Maybe I'm just sanely challenged
but does St. Hoppy look kinda look like a chubby Roast Beef?

Chuppies

I look down at my grammar and all around writing skills with shame.

...but where is mother?

Also remarkably modern neckties for these boys they have obviously adapted a bit better to current fashions than dear old dad.

Based on the second panel, I would guess the mother is a horse.

Fuck yeah, Taffy!

this strip directly steals from the unreleased manuscript of The Hobbit 2

Swedes? i guess they are swedish.


Pretty new to Achewood, huh?

Im trying my best damnit!

Marc Owen. You can't hide your true feelings Onstad. And where is Bryn?

Take That Onstad! Booyah!

Today I gave out all my chubbies while I was drunk. Fuck that.

Auto 5 for Taffy.

Taffy's got the Tourette's!

There is a form of Tourette's where people say things other than curse words (and they have physical tics as well). Maybe Taffy's family just always used the term "yes" and "positively" and looked down on such language as "yeah yeah yeah" as potty mouthed slang.

I can't wait till he starts spewing victorian insults.

Why victorian? I thought their family was from the middle ages.

1676. Not the middle ages, not Victorian. The Age of Reason.

The middle cat, if you will.

Padraig resembles a young Nice Pete......uber-distant relative?

I knew a few Padraigs,

rather dull fellows if I'm honest.

Taffy is rocking my show, although he does look a bit like an old student of mine - come to think of it so does Dewey.

I never thought it could be like this!

P.S. Are you Pogo's gogo-dancing daughter/granddaughter/hot cousin?

Gotta be the hot cousin.

Could be...

And she has good taste in scotch. I vote we make her our queen.

I must admit feeling a certain kinship for St. Hoppy because I love my sainted hops. Mmmm... strongly hopped beer...

taffy's actually rocking out to u2's vertigo. the length of the song is about the time it took the brothers to line up and for their father to call out their names

He's a welshman from the 17th century he's not listening to vertigo but U2 that's silly.

He's listening to Lightsaber Cocksucking Blues by Mclusky. He has it on repeat. On his iPod.

P.S. He is actually aching from fucking too much.

P.P.S He is fearful of flying, and flying is fearful of him.

Iorwerth has 8 cars and a house in Ireland.

Probably jammin' to Superfurry Animals, yo.

I think it's Molly calling out their names, as a greeting, and as a display of surprise and happiness as she hasn't seen them in a while.

Pay attention to these names

There will be a test

Apparently hedonismbot likes... Baldurs Gate.. in a weird way.

https://rule34.paheal.net/post/view/173665

I have no clue what you meant, and was going to follow the link. Then I saw rule34 in the address, looked at my boss, and thought the better of it.

It's, like, some elf sucking cock? And you posted it.

I drew that in middle school. I haven't seen that in years. What, precisely was this gent looking at when he stumbled upon my long-forgotten scribbles?

Whoa. Huge slam on white dudes out of nowhere.

Heh. I wondered if the fact that one of Molly's siblings is a saint would resurface during the wedding at some point.

I hope my brother never becomes a saint. I would hate to be obliged to use an honorific with my brother.

Of course, Hoppy isn't even his real name . So it's like an honorific...plus a nickname. Like if you called George W. Bush "President Dubya" to his face. (Taffy's name, on the other hand, is apparently actually "Taffy." Go figure.)

Anwen is a girl's name.

Note that the first 8 brothers are nearly identical to the next 8 (1 to 9, 2 to 10, etc.). Even the patterns on the ties is, for the most part, identical.

It would also appear that Gareth and Haydn are twins. So are Vaughan and Anwen probably, though they prefer to express themselves differently.

no emotions for me please

Is it weird to imagine that Molly's father has the same voice as Daniel Plainsview?

I think Richard Burton myself, only you know, a bit more welsh.

this is a fantastic strip. it has, like, an early 2000's feel to it.

is that an offer?

Perhaps it's a challenge.

the name "cadwalader" had to be created by an insane man.

clearly he's gone too far with this strip.

Comment left by achillese1bow ignored.

Tell that to Rear Admiral Cadwalader Ringgold . [i]He[i/] may've been insane, but he had the moustache to pull it off.

Things that make me giggle:

-The term "rear admiral"
-Every time I look up at Taffy in the last panel

You clearly are not familiar with the international law firm of Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP .

(Incidentally, I just realized that someone might confuse that url as a Chinese Water Torture site...nothing could be further from the truth.)

clearly i was not and i would like to retract my statement ascerting / implying that use of the name "cadwalader" was prima facie evidence for indicating evidence of insanity.

Is anyone else wondering why Dewey Sanders looks like Cliff Richard?

I'm so confused about Molly. When is she from? Did all her family die and come back like she did? Whats with St. Hoppy?

Comment left by achillese1bow ignored.

17 brothers? Yeesh, no wonder Molly is so tolerant of Roast Beef. He's got his problems and all but at least there aren't 16 others.

My feelings on this strip are "Neutral."

But god damn do I love that ignore button.

Why are they wearing neck ties? Neck ties in the modern form weren't invented 300 years ago. Also, both "th" AND "dd?" Tut, tut.

Kitchenaids also weren't invented 300 years ago, and yet Molly's father went to buy one.

HOLY COCKS! A TALKING, UNDEAD STUFFED ANIMAL!

Those are real fake cats. The cats are real.

Dylan is known for his brilliant lyrics and poetry, but nobody can ever understand a fucking word he says. (Yes I know he's riffing on Thomas, but I find Bob the more ripe ground for slander)

Dewey looks a little like Gram Parsons to me.

I love it when the page shrinks 200% just by ignoring one asshole...

I just stop for a second every time I see those little grey letters and enjoy the blissful silence.

After all, words are very, un-neccess-a-ry, they can only do harm.

"Is that the guy from Depeche Mode...with a girl?!"

"Yeah, I guess he's not gay."

"But...he's the guy from Depeche Mode!!!"

it would appear dylan bears more than a passing resemblance to his namesake comedian...

Back then, you didn't need a weatherman to know which way the wind was blowin, you just needed Bob Dylan's hair.

Because, you see, his hair was often blowin in the wind.

Anwen? Cledwyn? Bleddyn?

What is this, Middle Earth??

Well yeah, Wales is.

Small people. Enjoy food. Little hands.

The fact that Wales is in Middle Earth makes so much sense. That's why the language sounds like someone throatfucking Gollum

I think I've said this before, but Sindarin was actually based on Welsh, so you're about half right.

EWW EWW EWW EWWW!!!

You get a chubby for raping my mind with that mental image.

Now where is the bleach and that power drill?

What does the alt text say? My browser is preventing me from finding out what Iorwerth is wearing.

'Cadwalader knows every fact about botany. Iorwerth is wearing boots; he is shorter than his daughter.'

Molly should know better than to show Emotions around the house.

I just finished reading the entire archive today. Yay!

Woohoo! Go you! Did you enjoy the journey?

today i learned what the inbox is!

It was wonderful and I have read all of the alt text. My name is fuzzyshoo, and I am addicted to Achewood.

oh my god, THAT'S how that game ends? I guess it's better that I was never able to beat it, or else I'd really be let down.

No, after this the whole game starts over at like triple difficulty, and then you need to beat it again to get the 'true' ending. Of course the damn message is so vague that I took it to mean that I'd just failed to find the bracelet somewhere along the way and kept resetting the game to try again. The time before the Internet and GameFaqs was a dark, terrible age of ignorance and blight.

Is that the game where the wizard turns you into a baby and an old man? Hilarious.

I love the music for this game!

like anyone here can get past level 3 on regular difficulty. ghosts and goblins was SO HARD i think it made have political opinions.

made *me* have political opinions that is. Like i started caring about school funding and retail re-zoning.

Am I the only one here getting kind of a Rain Man vibe from Taffy?

No sir, there is definitely something wrong with that boy's mind.

St. Hoppy is the only one who can tolerate standing next to Taffy.
In fact, I think he stands next to Taffy for a reason.

Taffy's definitely 'tarding it up.

Dewey could easily play a kid named Gunther in a Disney Channel movie.

And why ain't Padraig got a mouth?!

Maybe he found that perfect equilibrium between smile and frown, where the cat's mouth-line just disappears ?

He must have loaned it to Anwen (since when can cats have double chins? What actual breed is Molly's family?)

people hate it when molly serves as more than an awkward, slightly sexist anecdote.

not like welsh people normally have 17 kids or anything...and dad's with kids who have matching receding hairlines!

Dylan is one cooool lookin' motherfucker.

Bleddyn: Naturally left handed, but changed to please his father. Best death: Sliced left hand off in awkward meat-cutting accident.

Cadoc: Knows every variation of the Foxtrot, but no other dances. Best death: Murdered by fourth wife.

Gareth and Haydn: Experts at the Marx Brothers' mirror gag. Best deaths: Auto-erotic asphixiation (both).

Cadwalader: Favorite modern convenience is the clip-on tie. Best death: Malaise.

Dylan: Named after neithbor's horse. Best death: trampled to death by neighbor's horse.

Marc: Birth name is Mark. Best death: Over stimulation brought on by church.

Owen: Considered the smartest of his brothers. Best death: stuck dick in electrical socket.

Morcant: Resurrected to see revival of "Caberet". Best death: two ladies.

Padraig: First feline professional basketball player. Best death: lacked presence in the paint.

Vaughan: Shaves head because he wishes he was black. Best death: caught inside player piano.

Anwen: knew who shot JFK. Best death: peacefully on a grassy knoll.

Arwell: attended seminary; later joined the Cat Mafia as a low-level thug. Best death: shivved as a suspected prison snitch.

Cledwyn: mortition's assistant by trade, but secretly always wanted to ride the rails. Best death: brutally slaughtered by actual hobos.

Dewey: mother was struck by lightning in last 1/3 of pregnancy. Best death: trampled at Altamont.

St. Hoppy: patron saint of dour glances. Best death: cock-eyed look at a group of Hell's Angels.

Taffy: once won a new car on The Price is Right. Best death: sex bomb.

achilleselbow: just saw three versions of your name, slightly misspelt being registered to the site. AIU strikes again?

it is probably achilleselbow himself. In this highly competitive environment that is the Internet you have to register all possible variations and mispellings of your avitar to hold off the name squatters.

surprising though I didn't see him register 'total_douche_bag_' and 'dog_shit_eater' yet

You see, now I want someone to register dog_shit_eater and just make perfectly harmless, occasionally amusing posts and have everyone secretly talk about his name behind his back.

Like that Misty Hymen woman.

You guys can say whatever you want; I'm just glad to see Molly stay happy for an entire strip.

are you kidding? during the introduction of her brothers she had to have at least two periods and you know women ain't happy all through that shit

shedding their endrometrium out their vaginas and all

Have you never seen a tampon ad? They are all frollicking on the beach, riding bikes and messing about with blue water. Best time of the month ever!

I always assumed they seemed angry because they hadn't found time to get the beach yet.

Yea they seem a bit to happy to be bleeding from the uterus and all. I know if my penis bleed every month I'd stay in my room and cry. Damn no wonder they get all emotional...

It's honestly not a life-wrecking thing, guys. Good excuse to freak out and act irrational, though!

Your "oh comely" status makes me freak out and act irrational, to a small degree.

Because really, what a great song.

It's in my top 5 for sure. Hum hell of ditties for NMH.

Endrometrium! What news from the north?

Gareth and Haydn are twins, I'd venture to guess. Although Haydn seems to have tragically been born without eyebrows

Molly is just adorable in that hat

Dewey looks like Peter Tork.

"Taffy"? What kind of Welsh family calls their kid "Taffy"?

Padraig is the name of a minor character in Neil Stephenson's book "The Confusion". And Neil Stephenson fucking RULES.
