I'm inclined to agree with you, but man, Beef's probably right.

Never herd the english version of his name before, always knew 'im as Carl von Linné.

Latin, man, Linnaeus is Latin.

The man classified himself

Can someone please just explain the joke to me with small words because the wikipedia article is totally too long.

Does this help?

(I do not actually mean to seem sarcastic. I pray this is not being a dick to a stranger.)

Is it because he came up with binomial nomenclature and "shitty" is only one word?
And at first, yes, i felt like you were being a dick, but then I started reading and found my answer in the first sentence. I think. y/n?

I like how Pat felt the need to wear a lab coat.

I like how cold and judgmental his pencil scribblings sound.

Near as I can tell, Ray means the appendix...but you never know with Ray.

The appendix is sorta near the start of the large intestine. I think Ray is talkin' about the colon.

I think it would be the rectum, actually.

I thought it was just plain poo to be honest. I am of low mind.

The sphincter maybe?

Anus!?

"Oh man that is mega nasty. That is dog shit."

No, it's the little crumbs of dried poo on the rectum.
wait, what? WHAT DID I JUST SAY

That is some harsh imagery, dogg.

ohmygodd dogg I am so sorry I don't know what I was even thinking maybe I tried too hard this time.

If we all lived in fear of trying too hard, none of us would ever try at all.

Dingleberries

alternately: cling-ons/klingons

Also: dags.
Used to describe the cluster of dried sheep droppings hanging onto a sheep's ass.
They kinda rattle when the sheep runs.

Then...in that one comic book Dagwood ...?
Does that have anything to do with... dags ?

"you like dags?"

Oh, dogs. Sure, I like dags. I like caravans more

Tagnuts.

Winnits, tagnuts and dangleberries.
Oh my!

Actually, fuck a link. The Clag-Gone deserves an IMG.

My brain was just hit with a searing bolt of pure nostalgia. You bastard. Have a chub.

Comment/avatar combination did it for me there. That's good shit.

Damn near killed 'im!

Damn near killed 'im!

Damn near killeddddddddddddddddddddddddddd]

Damn near killed 'em

Failure, failure, failure. Ach.

Damn near killed 'em!

Damn near killed 'em!

Damn near killed 'em?

So Pat made a colon? I probably don't want to see the recipe for that. Actually, how would that be vegan?

I can't believe it's not colon!

i actually laughed out loud at that. thank you.

Well, it's a vegan substitute colon.

That's right.

A semi-colon.

Delightfully chubbied.

Casts a bit of an odd light on p o u l t r y ;, no?

Chubb for obscure reference...

Also however I will ask a simple question:
Cuke-wurst? I dunno what "cuke" is, but "wurst" is sausage... so I doubt its vegannyness.... veganitude... or whatever.

"Cuke" in this case is most likely short for "cucumber", which would reaffirm is veganity.

yeah he probably means the anus

alt text: why did we have to drag carols linneaus into this people

Clearly, someone needs to be policing Beef's use of literary allusion. This would not pass muster for Cornelius Bear.

He's so eager to here from them..."What's the verdict, amigos?"

Ray's face in panel 2 is utterly priceless.

Although Pat affects the manner of a scientist, I think he's going to throw out those two data points. I don't see that pen SKRIT-SKRITing down, "comparable to ass". The look of frustration in the last panel tells me he'll probably just drve by Carl's Jr. and give the finger to everyone waiting in the drive-thru.

"shirty" = 'tetchy', 'riled', 'pissed', 'angry'

Yes, but Doc A isn't in this comic

That is Pat in a lab coat.
Hence the veganism...

This is what I saw. Now you all know why.

I don't think anyone until now realized that Doc Andretti looks very similar to Pat in a lab coat.

Am I the only one who pictures deancain29 as being permanently high?

So many of his posts have that "I was sooo baked last night" quality, yet every once in a while he stuns you with a witty or insightful comment. (Not that the majority of his comments are bad, per se, but often just a repeated line from the strip, or simple ideas about the strip. Completely unremarkable.)

Even in his avatar, he looks like he just took a hit (assuming that's him).

It makes reading comments like the ones above much more understandable.

I picture him that way too. a chubby for the insight.

The return!

I actually looked up CheatLoaf on Wikipedia just to be sure.

I'm reading all Achewood in the middle of campus while I'm supposed to be working on several classes several-day-old homework.
It feels so right.

First thought: [url=www.homestarrunner.com]Homestar Runner[/url].
Perhaps quite as stimulating, but amusing none-the-less, and now I'll never be able to rid myself of the image of Pat capturing The Cheat, pulping him, and baking him into a loaf of food-esque substance.

What the HELL man.

That was supposed to say, "Perhaps not quite as stimulating as Achewood ..."

Also, Homestar Runner .

The image of baked The Cheat still haunts me at night.

Imitation meat isn't cheating. It's just a sad form of denial.

Carolus Linneaus was quite the dapper gent.

[IMGS OFF]

Little known Fact:
Linnaeus actually came from a long line of prosperous meatsmiths.
No self-respecting king or queen in all of northern Europe could even imagine throwing a banquet withouth their famous Seven-cow von Linné loaf, which according to mouthwitnesses would "rape your [taste] buds all the way to China-land, and make a love party out of your palate". Whether or not this is true we shall never know, as the Linné family secret recipe book is lost in the mists of time, much to the modern day "meathead's" dismay.

Here is one unusally well preserved .gif of a basic tuesday at the Linné residence.
[IMGS OFF]

According to popular belief, Carl Linné accidentally created a new, even tastier meat loaf while hopped up on opium and vodka. Upon waking the glorius creation remained, but no notion of it's recipe. Carl's father sent him out in the world with the mission to catalogue every ingredient in the world, and recreate this king of loaves. Carl latinized his name into Carolus Linnaeus for easier travelling and spent his life traversing the world, tasting and classifying all manner of things.
He died of diabetes many years later (even though he excercised) still in pursuit of his fathers dream: The Perfect Meat Loaf.

Frankly, I do not know what happened to the line breaks, but at least the image worked. Yay!

I thought assetbar had let me of the hook lightly this time, but then I noticed that it replaces acute accented "e" with a "?". I guess I can understand why old Carl latinized his name.
Thank you assetbar, for teaching me through my shortcomings.

This is brilliant.

That must have taken so ridiculously long to make I had to chubby it.

Wow... Yeah, I'm not entirely sure what's going on there, but the fact that you spent however long making that for a random comic from 2005 deserves kudos in itself. I think.

Meatsmiths ? You mean they played hella Kingdom of Loathing ?

CAVERN OF SORROWWWWW!!

Mad props holmes. The maddest .

Where are you sir! Hastily Photoshopped Buggery Competitions are being held without you!

...edwell wins. EVERY TIME.

but i will proclaim on Achewood Fighter.

Chubbied for Gilliam-esque chops.

Pat, the ultimate hater of everyone who is not himself, calls Beef and Ray amigos .

What. The. Hell.

Because they are complying with his manipulative designs and nefarious schemes.

I don't know what cuke-wurst is, but I know it's the least edible-sounding thing just about ever.
