Title: ray's nutlessness
Post by: THA SUGAH RAIN HAS COME on April 07, 2005, 05:00:57 am
ah've always thought it was integral to the character, and assumed that the early reference to his neutering was canonical and accepted

but apparently lots of people here figure that it's just one of those typical onstad discarded plot elements, like basically the entire first few months of the strip

ah s'pose it could be something that's deliberately left ambiguous, sort of like hobbes' real/unreal nature in C&H except less ontological and more bozackological or whatever, i dunno.  is there a clear consensus here on the question?  lahk, definitely the strip in question (http://www.achewood.com/index.php?date=01212002) can be seen different ways, esp. w/ the alt-text

anyway, ah always thought that it was part of the point of the character - it adds poignance to ray, what with the compensatory boning and all that

so, enlahten me - what exactly is the deal here

should this be in the FAQ or something

Why do I get the feeling you've never been south of Wisconsin?  Or Fresno?

Foghorn Leghorn worked for Chuck Jones and Mel Blanc.  From you, meh.

If it's voice-recognition software, then it's software you've deliberately trained onto this behavior. "Lahk" is "lock" to a voice-recognition program unless you tell it to read it as "lahk". And if you tell it to read it as "like", then it will type "like".

ah'm from the hero state, new jersey

mah accent developed spontaneously and against mah will about two years ago on account of mah general soulfulness; a classic new jersey accent just didn't fit me anymore

this is all off-topic; someone help me

ah suspect that THers (the people who chased me away from mah last board) have infiltrated this place too and are after poor me again

ah just wish to live peacefully, discussing achewood :(

Long All-Caps Nick (can I call you Nick for short?), you're trying too hard.

Consider yourself on reprieve only because of the phrase "compensatory boning."

Usually I can tolerate meta-analysis of a fictionalized account of anthropomorphic cats interacting with alive stuffed animals and automatons that are gay, eastern european, or otherwise but when it comes with some kind of extremely affected faux-southern-sincerity I have to draw the line.

It's a comic. You need a either a 12-step program or to be sponsored into Pat's support group.

I think everybody should have some kind of cloying personal posting style. In a show of solidarity all my posts from now on will be in Welsh.

30,000 posts on your own board is mental masturbation at best.  How much does a professional boarder make, anyhow? What the hell is that about?

Is there a board devoted to the discussion of fictional genitals? Because that's all you've posted about so far.

Nah, being a consummate dick and being rightly persecuted for it is part and parcel, Foghorn.

Looks like you owe Jough $32 so far. Hit the tip jar on your way out, pardner.
