Title: January 16th, 2008 - "why don't you write that down."

I'm pretty sure that there was neither Teodor nor Microsoft in 1953 so I'm confused by this strip.

Dust ruffles is a nice idea for office morale, though, definitely.

Anyone else immediately notice the Vlad loses his chin along with his noise? Weird.

Post by: V-Adore on January 16, 2008, 09:41:11 am: This is straight-up Messed-Up-Dream Country, right here. Hasn't Teodor had a dream before about being in awkward corporate situations? (I would CortJstr this, but the search seems to be down.)

Post by: linnea on January 16, 2008, 12:20:15 pm: I'm sure there's significance re: the baseball-stitching around the "Million Story Building" but I have no clue what it is. Is it referencing a famous movie or something?

Also, I love, "Shut UP, stupid fridge! You are appliance, NOT friend!" Way to crush a guy's dream, Vlad.

Correct (http://achewood.com/index.php?date=01042006).

Huh. Where you saw baseball stitching I saw a staircase.

You don't get appliance branding of that quality anymore.

Aw jeez. That's what I get for posting while sick, sleep-deprived, and addled. Of course it's a staircase. Yikes.

Maybe the little globe with a dotted line between Achewood(?) and Hawaii is a reference to that strip.

That I believe is a bridge to Hawaii.

Nah, that's about how tall I imagine a million story building would be.

Post by: Drastic Action on January 24, 2008, 02:44:22 am: I am 97% certain it is simply the shadow of the building. It originates from the base of the building! And why would they build a bridge to Hawaii from Canada?
Title: Re: January 16th, 2008 - "why don't you write that down."
Post by: AlohaDawg on January 24, 2008, 03:28:06 am: I think that's the shadow, too. Once the world builds a million story building, it would obviously not have the resources to build such a bridge.

Unless you built the building due East of Hawaii and fixed it so it would lay down like a drawbridge.

Then, Maybe.

Post by: Arachno-capitalist on January 24, 2008, 01:10:58 pm: IDK, I saw a thing on the discovery channel about how Science wants to build a space elevator with carbon nano-tubes or something (this is not my field).
Title: Re: January 16th, 2008 - "why don't you write that down."
Post by: colmore on January 24, 2008, 05:07:23 pm: The Discovery channel isn't so much "science" these days as it is weddings, home-improvement, and some stuff some guy once heard about science.

Remember when they had a smaller budget, no audience, and just reran great 1970s and BBC documentaries? Early 90s cable was a lot better than we appreciated at the time. I seriously miss all the reruns. Too much success ruins everything. Eat it, capitalists.
