Full of creamy blog-discussing goodness!
-
Now Onstad just needs to, y'know, update them.
C'mon! I want to hear about the outcome of Operation H.O.T. S.A.U.C.E.! What great disaster befell this week, huh?
-
ALSO: Looks like Beef had issues with the semi-public performance. Hope it doesn't have repercussions.
I have to side with the Roasted Beef here: there are very few things more off-putting, in my opinion, than goddamned cutesy novelty underwear (c.f. "Hot Stuff") such as one might buy off of Cafe Press or that Rock And Roll store at the Mall.

Wow, I assume this was posted last week, but dang, Ekaterina Gamova looks like some sort of pixie thing.
a HOT pixie thing.
-
...so I just left the pool shed door open and raccoons ate them.
Yeah, that really is pretty appalling. Although my friend's dog did the same thing once.
-
I haven't read the blogs in like, a week, but your comments here are probably even more entertaining anyway.
Carry on, citizens.
-
Thanks Jough!
-
Molly, sweetheart, you want a guy who sits at a computer all day, or you want a guy who goes out and grabs the opportunity to actually experience life? Maybe it's not reasonable to expect both.
-
I have to kind of side with Beef on this one, honestly. While I think Molly meant well, I think she needs to understand that, with a guy like that, you're only going to get public intimacy when he has control over it. Also, no guy wants to make out in his ambivalently-"best"-friend's shed, all with banana slugs already on the floor.

Oh god, Mr. Bear is in for some hell-of disappointment
But it will be hilarious!

The pin stripes will totally make the differece.

You'd think the unusual cachet of being an Alive Stuffed Animal would be enough to win over the weird-lookin' lady, but I guess not.
Geez.

Oh crap! This post made me wonder what their . . . romantic life would be like.
Get It Out of My Head!

Hmmm.
I sense the impending death of the blogs.
Is it just me?
-
Looks like Ray's blog kinda confirms your take.
why is it that the one time the universe decides to back my worldview,
it's over my opinion on the thoughts of a cat that he posts on his blog?
-
Does anyone have a clue what "the Miz gerries" are that LN wants to catch up on? I feel sadly clueless and out-of-touch with the "modern generation."
And I dunno, really... something still rubs me wrong about the whole Operation H.O.T. S.A.U.C.E. thing. Maybe it was the fact that Onstad actually put a link to the Achewood store in? That kind of broke the fourth wall for me.

Yeah, it freaks me out almost as much as Phillippe having The Religion.
-
I dunno, I can sort of buy Philippe having Religion, if only because it hasn't been used all that stupidly yet. It could get irritating if 'stad goes overboard with it, though.

Yeah, and it's not even really like he's got The Religion; it's more like he's just got random, weird Morals.

But you are the "modern generation".

That doesn't seem like much of a danger to me. Onstad never seems to go overboard with a theme. He has a fine sense of comic timing -- leave 'em wanting more, stop it sooner versus later. I can't really think of a joke/theme that he's worn out. I guess Teador's party ran a little long, but that was more of a setting rather than a gag.

For a character who (relatively) doesn't get much face time in the strip (and has dog shit abs besides), Pat is slowly but surely becoming my favorite character. It's funny: I believe my very first post here contained something to the effect of "Pat is a dick".
Pat. I was wrong, in spirit if not in letter. You are right to be a dick. Take it from Pat, people: shape up.
-
St Zartan, you are my favorite character.
On edit: I have to agree. I see too much of Pat in myself. Pat is like the ultimate rationalist. Things are sposta make sense dammit! Pat represses his voltaile emotions because it's the correct thing to do. When presented with an irrational situation he blows the limits and does crazy shit to try to restore rationality.
Part of me applauds Pat for the effort. Part of me laughs at him for believing he can change the condition of the cosmos.

I don't think he's supposed to be some crazy fundamentalist Religious Reich kind of person, he just has the vague regilious notions that many kids do. Say your prayers, swearing makes god angry. That kind of thing.

Pat's greatest enemy: entropy
-
Earlier in the week he wanted to do this Donald Trump theme, which I guess meant that he would fly away in a helicopter while the party went bankrupt, but hopefully he'll have changed his mind.
there's my sweet one-liner for the day.
-
So much for my Blog-Chris-Isn't-Married theory.
-
I think this is the first Pat-rant I basically agree with. I can grok his wavelength here. I like to think this is because this is his first rant which is truly rational and does not involve doing awful things to service personnel who are just trying to do their best in this world.
Also, I think LN proves to me that I am entirely out of step with Youth Culture, at least as it applies to talking cats.
-
Wait, is this the Postal Service rant that went up a while ago? Because that's the latest Pat entry I'm gettin.

Are Freeze-pop Liz and Onstad, Liz two different people?
-
I think they're different people because don't the Freezepops live in Boston?
But did you know that they also have an advice column from a cat on their website?

Jesus, I actually went and checked their website, anticipating feeling like the stupidest of fools, but I'll be damned.

I must be turing into Pat as well, since his rant immediately made me think of this article (http://www.reason.com/links/links082604.shtml). I suspect that Pat reads Reason far more often than I, though.
