Title: Heyo! - 31st May 2005
Post by: Doc on May 31, 2005, 05:18:41 am

Shame on me, I didn't even notice Ray's medallion was missing in the previous strips. I'm hoping there is another spooky and supernatural story behind the medallion, as there is behind all of Ray's possessions. Could it have the power to invoke the vinyl-upholstery-haunting-ghost of depressing-suicide-encouraging Ben stiller when placed in the Volvo of despair?
I'm a little disappointed that Molly will probably live, for now, but I guess you just have to take the bitter with the better.

Edit: Topic changed because I can't read a calendar. Also because I like Heyo better.

This strip is all about the eyeballs. Those things are great.

This strip is filler.  Nothing much happened to advance the story arc or develop the characters.  

Why do I feel like Chris remembered it was Monday at about 3 pm and realized he'd promised to have a strip out today?

I thought I was so out of the loop with the kids that "buy a nose on eBay" meant to buy a certain quantity (a nose) of a particular drug.

Like a lid or dime bag.  I'm just not hip with the kids.

My judgment on this strip will hinge on what hijinks it sets up for the rest of the week. It doesn't really stand on its own well.

I still can't tell if Beef is faking it or not. With Beef, it's hard to tell.

I TOTALLY thought the same thing. I am extremely ashamed of what I thought.

What you're people missing here is that a moment ago Mr. Bear and Ray were discussing what could happen to Beef in that car, but now Ray is more concerned with his missing medalion. He has priorities.

Maybe it's linked to his deal with Satan.

Not my favorite strip or anything, but the look on Beef's face in panel 3 is one for the ages.

You just described most of Achewood.

I guess they're leading in to something involving the medallian. Maybe Beef will use it to kill Molly or something.

Ray's medallion is totally either in the car or in his garage.  He had it when Beef was checking out the car, but hasn't had it since they both got in.

See, at first I thought it was a typo, and was supposed to read "noose," but then the alt text set me strait.

Hey remember on the old Dumbrella boards how we would catch mistakes and typos in the strip, and then they's magically be fixed shortly there after?  That's what I thought was happening there.  And I was briefly excited.  But, I was wrong.

For the record, jough and Mattgiraffe, as resident former stoner, I must note it would've totally be "nose candy."

Also, I was at 7-11 a few days ago, and my SO showed me a candy for sale there that was a plasic nose that you squeeze to make a thick syrupy "candy" come out.  I think it was aptly named "Goobers" if I'm not mistaken, but come on, it's totally "Nose Candy."

No, I think goobers [boogers] is an appropriate name.  What you are referring to is candy for the nose, not candy from the nose.
