Great writing here.
T's acerbic wit is....too real.
The funny is imagining what Ray's half of the conversation is, along with throw away detail like the light coming on.
I guess Chris is learning valuable lessons from parenthood about responsibility as he's now finishing storylines!

Yeah, I do like the completely useless incidental bit with Teodor flicking the light switch on.

HELP! - I think i need to see that kaftan wearing male-person again, im starting to think about whether i could pull it of again..!

Well, look at T, he looks great!!

And also, why is it, that all calls about something involving electricity are tranferred to the IT-department??? I generally know nothing about anything, the people here at work should know that.

Have a nice weekend.

Man I am so pissed off at Circus c*ck.  I've met his kind.

Fucker!

Also, the one sided conversation.  I saw a special on Bob Newhart last week.  Onstad must have seen the same show.

Brilliant strip.

Do you suppose that when baby is a little older he'll tell bedtime stories and just stop in the middle?

"So then Goldilocks laid down in Baby Bear's bed and said 'This bed is just right.' and she went to sleep. The end."

I like how the baby is wearing pajamas with dogs winning prizes.  I can't imagine a nicer set of clothes with a more positive message.

But then again, I can't imagine anything.

Heh, I wonder how you'd go about telling your kid about your adult-orientated web comic? Maybe slowly phasing out the typical fairy story characters and replacing them with Achewood's?
I can smell a spin-off!
The "Phone conversation" comedy technique can also be seen in Curb Your Enthusiasm. Larry David is a master of it.

I feel for T here, because I know how it feels for people to excitedly commission you to do things for them and suddenly and quietly retract, leaving you with a completely useless item/piece of artwork/concept that you spent too much time on to simply throw away.

Ray does this to him all the time.

Huh. I would've guessed that the main symbol of our time somehow involved computer porn. Or portable electronics.

I shouldn't be surprised that the C.P. arc sort of... petered out.

Yes, but I think we all understood the thrust of the story.

It was a hard decision to pull out of the story arc early.  Onstad really pulled that one off.

Jough, are we to assume from your participation in this hmph, lowest form of humor, that punning is now OK on the TOUAMB?

Double entendres have always been okay.  It's bad puns to which I object.

It's a very fine line we must tread.

You can never tire of making jokes involving rubbers to bridge the concept of sex and treads.

OK, I have to ask.  Rubber -- bridge... was that intentional Bobby or am I adding my own jokes here?

Would a pun about how T is already like a toilet because he let the Circus c*ck thing go down the tubes be pushing it?

Yes, a pun like that would be unforgivable.  A double entendre, on the other hand, would be a masterful stroke.

Indeed, Null. That was the cream of the crop.
