yeah this one had quite a few good titles it was hard to choose just one.

I'm mostly alright for conceding to veedub since she was a few minutes sooner on the post new topic button than I, but in my defense this is the OUAMB, a messageboard devoted to a single site, so I feel like a link should not even be necessary because a post about one new comic on one site comes with the subtext that of course it's achewood. 12 characters are not too much to type ya lahrdy bahstards. 

I'm cautiously optimistic about having the Achewood over the twitters. I suppose I'm presuming this is a replacement for the blogs, and while that's ok I guess I don't see how he can keep them all straight and in decent quality, especially since everything is still hand drawn after a decade (seriously, the guy doesn't have like a Ray/Beef exchange template by now?)

Now that I think about it, one of the things that keeps me coming back to Achewood is the writing, which makes me think the comic strip is almost the wrong format for expressing these characters. Oh sure, the visuals are great for reference and so forth, but would you still read Achewood if it were a series of short novellae, a la Wodehouse? Cuz I sure would. In fact if a "strip" was just each character's interpretation of an event, like with the #####ing doll in the blogs, I would eat that shit up like chocolate-covered coffee seeds.

What kind of cheese do you use, this is important. Generally for grilled cheeses I use those gross milk+chemicals "sandwich slices." I know it's an affront to food, but they melt so well in the 2-3 minutes they're on the skillet. For anything else I'd rather actual cheddar.

Anyway, pepperoni with sandwich slices sounds kinda gross, but with like some mozzarella-type could actually be decent.

It means butchering a bird by cutting out its backbone and flattening it. It's how we grill birds for most of our company meals. Where'd you grow up?

well, someone had to... 

I'm just gonna assume the reason there's almost 100 pageviews but only 4 (now) comments is that people are just coming through whenever they need a pick-me-up. And I'm ok with that.
