Did I somehow miss this?

The mind reels.


It is this cat.

He is in the straight-up dopest Serializer strip. Go here and buy a month of it right now.

I was going to ask CortJstr for help, but I did it all by myself!

Duh...I never realized he and Showbiz were twins.

Besides, being a cat and all sort of negates the whole idea of twins anyway. Thanks.

Just in case there was any doubt, machetes and tequila do not mix.

Another guy . . . decided that he could swallow a flaming machete. The doctors say that he'll never speak again . . .

Any party that can make a person think this is, at some level, a successful party.

Re: The Tequila and Machetes Thing

This bit had some great moments.  There are some lovely jokes in both the setup post and the payoff.  However, it was just too obvious that the first post was a setup post.  I mean, tequila and machetes?  Wha?  Where did that party theme come from?  Ray is Ray and Ray is goofy in his own way (and sophisticated in his own way.)  But I had trouble believing that Ray was goofy enough to mix tequila and machetes.  What's next?  Fireworks and blowtorches?  Israelis and Palestineans?

At least Beef didn't lose an organ.

I just loved the image of the guy who lost his thumb cradling his hand like Luke. Loved it!

Yeah, Ray's party was an obvious setup, but it was a fuckin' funny one nonetheless.

Props to the ritual machete torture.

Thankyou! I've always loved that quote, but couldn't remember where I found it. It's in the first few pages, or first page, of a book I have somewhere... Palahniuk maybe?

I've only ever seen it online and out of context so I couldn't help you.

Let down by the CortJstr'er! Dang!
I keep getting the feeling it might have been Salmon of Doubt now, but it doesn't sound right to me. Ah well, I can't be bothered to go through all of my books.

It's definitely older than SoD. I've had in my quote list for several years now.

Could this be it?

Not that it means much without a link to the original article, I suppose, and the site only goes back to '97.

No, no it's quoted at the start of a piece of fiction I own. I am thinking then it is in the front of Choke by Palahniuk, but I can't check as my mother has my copy at the moment.

When was that published? Amazon says 2001, with parts published in Playboy before then, but that other link says 1992 for the quote.

Sorry, I just looked and the driving purpose behind your question was where you had seen it. This is why I shouldn't get involved with these things.
